All Chapters of Fated to My Brother in-law, The Lycan King: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

LUCIAN Life in the palace was beginning to get boring, at least for me. Going through my familiar routine for months with nothing to do next created some itch inside of me to find an hobby. Or create one instead at least to fill the void inside me.Not finding Reine's soul altering the biology of my brain.Since the major recent events in my life had drawn me to studying spells, I'd decided to make the library my second home. It was barely used by anyone in the palace anyway. Also, maybe if I go through all the books in the library, I'll find the answers I desperately seek.Being a werewolf with very little access to his powers did not only make you feel like a weakling but also dumb amongst the rest of them. My powers still have returned to its full capacity, maybe that's why the spell did not work, but I knew deep down that that wasn't the case.So perharps being a regular to the library would make me start to fit in somewhere, even if it wasn't in terms of strength as a werewolf.

ELIAS I made a choice…If I said those words did sting when I heard them whispered around the palace, I’d be lying. They were about me. And they were true in one way: I was cold. I was ruthless. The throne had carved me into something sharp and tired. But I also knew something nobody else did. Hatred was easier than grief. And grief was the thing I could never show.I sat at the long stone table with the elders, my fingers tapping against the carved edge. The war map lay open in front of us, covered with pins and dark stains. My head hurt, and my patience felt thin.Elder Yvonne, the only one I did not entirely despise, leaned forward. “They struck the north border again last night,” she said. “Two patrols gone. No scent trail. No survivors.”I rubbed my jaw. “You want me to say it. So say it for me.”“They’re taunting you,” Luke said quietly from my right. Luke had those soft blue eyes that made people trust him. I trusted him too… just not completely.At least, he handled the

LUCIAN When I pushed the door open, the room felt small, like the walls had been waiting for me the whole time.Elias was already there.He wasn’t sitting, he was pacing back and forth. His boots dragged a low, angry sound across the floor. His shoulders were tense. His hands kept opening and closing, like he was trying not to punch something.The air smelled like that woodsy-spice scent again. Strong. Sharp. It wrapped around me even though I didn’t want it.He stopped when he saw me.His eyes narrowed. “How dare you?"I closed the door behind me. Slowly. “You wanted honesty,” I said. “You got it.”He laughed … short, harsh. “Honesty? That was not honesty. That was humiliation. You rejected your king … in public. In front of the elders. In front of the pack. In front of everyone.”“It was still my answer,” I said.He moved closer. “You think this is about answers?”“What else would it be about?”He stared at me like he wanted to shake me. “I made a decision that would protect the pa

ELIASI heard the knock before Barrett even came to tell me someone wanted to see me.I already knew it would be Yvonne. She had that kind of knock … soft, patient, but steady enough to remind you she never left until she got what she wanted.Barrett appeared anyway and bowed slightly.“Elder Yvonne is here, Your Majesty.”I nodded. “Send her in.”He left, and a few seconds later, she walked in like she owned the room. She always had that calm confidence priests and elders carried, like nothing surprised them and nothing could truly shake them.She smiled at me first. “Congratulations, Elias.”I leaned back in the chair, tired already. “For what exactly?”“For finally choosing a Luna,” she said, laughing a little. “I did not see that one coming. Truly. Not that one.”“I guessed,” I said. “Everyone keeps saying the same thing.”She sat across from me, studying my face like she was trying to read something I wasn’t saying.“I mean it,” she continued. “Of all the people in this kingdom,

LUCIAN The water sloshed softly as I poured it into the marble tub. I finished off within a few minutes, and straightened slowly as soon as Elias walked into the bathroom.He's stacked naked, but nothing about him entice me tonight. I gulped down and looked away, and was about to take my leave when he stopped me abruptly with his words.“You’re shaking,” he said quietly.“I’m fine,” I replied and pressed my lips together.His gaze dropped to my hands, still clenched tightly at my sides, then back to my face. He didn’t call me out on it. Instead, he walked a bit closer and stopped a few distance away.“The bath is ready?” he asked.“Yes, Your Majesty.”Elias winced and tilted his head as he gaze at me with a frown. “How many times have I asked you not to call me that when we’re alone?”I swallowed. “I’m sorry.”That made his brows knit together. “Lucian.”I raised my head slowly and gaze directly at his face. That's when I realized he's right before me. I opened my mouth to respond, b
