Semua Bab DESIRED BY MY LYCAN EX AND THE BETA: Bab 31 - Bab 40

THORNE'S POV I backed away slowly from the door, unready to take my eyes away from it. I collided into something thick and strong which made me turn to look at my behind. "Would you watch where you're going?" Duncan hissed as brushed me out of the way. I sneered at him, I didn't have the time to pick up a fight or maybe I did but with Lyra here, I had to be on my best behaviour. "What were you doing in my matrimonial room?" He asked, I swore is nose flared as he spoke. "Nothing much." I replied with sarcasm in my voice. "You can ask your beloved wife about it." With that, I turned my back to him and padded down the stairs. Lyra and Ryan were already in the car as I expected. I opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat beside Marcus. "What took you so long?" Lyra asked, her voice startling me from behind. "Ah, I - uh, I don't know." I stuttered. "I guess I didn't find what I was looking for." I shrugged. Lyra looked at me skepti

SOPHIA'S POV I sat impatiently in the bar as my heart thumped rapidly in my chest. I could say that I had been waiting here for more than an hour now, yet there was still no sign of Phelan whom I was waiting for. To think of it though, I didn't want him to show up anymore, especially not now. I looked to my right and my eyes caught a glimpse of the Nightshade pack warriors whose seat was not really that far from mine. I averted my face from their gaze, the last thing I wanted was for them to sniff or even notice me. The men erupted into boisterous laughter that somewhat pierced my earrings, I sighed in desperation. Probably, I should get out of here, time was already running late and the night would set in some sixty minutes later. I grabbed my purse from the seat beside me and padded out of the pub house. I looked around my surroundings for a while before making a walk along the walkway. A car soon came to a halt beside me, it's headlights flashing blatantly, the w

LYRA'S POV "Mama." I heard Ryan's voice from deep within my sleep, his soft baby hands beating my chest softly as he yelled. "Mom?" He called again. But I was still deep in sleep, unable to bring myself to consciousness no matter how much I willed it. "Mum?" All of a sudden, Ryan yanked me up by my shoulders, his hand pulling me up with all the might that he had got. I woke up in the most unimaginable way possible. "What is it Ryan?" I yawned. "I want to go to school." He yelled. I stretched my arms and pulled my phone out from the drawer to check the time, "it's only four am." I told him. "it wouldn't be time yet even in the next two hours." I said. Ryan only stared blankly at me and I realized that he had little to no sense of time, so he understood none of all that I had said. "Look child,it's not time yet, you would have your bath later okay. Let's get some rest first." I coaxed him. "How long before it's time?" He asked. "

THORNE'S POV I flattened down the collar of my shirt before placing a knock on Lyra's bedroom door. No response. I sighed, she was probably beating at herself about what happened earlier today when it should be me doing exactly that. I knew I shouldn't have kept it a secret from her but what choice exactly did I have. Ryan's life was definitely in danger and the last thing I wanted was to have Lyra lose her mind over it. Things would still be under control if Tank hadn't let loose his bug mouth when he did this morning. I knocked once more on her door, she didn't reply. "Lyra?" I called. She made a sound but they were more of gibberish than actual words. I pulled down the doorknob and entered the room uninvited. Lyra was lying on her bed grabbing the sheets tightly for no reason at all "Leave!" She threw a pillow at me. I picked it up stealthily and placed it back on the bed as I approached her. "I know I must have angered you today." I

DUNCAN'S POV The road leading back home was as busy as they came, not with vehicles but with teenagers whose only concern in life had nothing to do with keeping track of time but everything to do with having fun. The scene took me back to the time I was just fifteen years old like them, young, full of life, probably invulnerable and most definitely, I didn't have me a dying wolf. The carefreeness of my young age was something that had gotten replaced by the burden of being an adult. I had a lot of things going on on my mind almost at the same time, the most important topic was always the one taking the lead and I still couldn't understand, no matter how much I tried to. The call I made to Lyra this afternoon didn't go as expected, I had just thought I was doing a favor nothing more but what she had accused me of. Trying to kidnap Ryan and take him away from her was something I would never think of doing. I could never have her back in my life, but I could have R
