Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Lycan’s second chance mate is a HYBRID.: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Donika’s POVThe walk back to my room felt longer than it should have.Kael had told me to go with Elena while he “handled something.” That “something” being the gorgeous, furious woman who had barged into his office the second we left. Whoever she was, she was really bold for raising her voice at a Lycan.I kept my head down as we passed through the road leading back to Kael’s, but I couldn’t block out the whispers. They didn’t whisper very quietly; it was as if they wanted me to hear them.“…from ThornClaw, can you believe it?”“…and she’s wolfless? The Moon Goddess must be joking with our Alpha.”“She doesn’t look like Luna material at all. She looks like a scared little thing Kael picked up out of pity.”Each remark hit like a pebble thrown at glass, not hard enough to shatter me completely, but enough to crack the surface.Then came one that lodged in my chest like a blade:“She won’t last here. She’ll be eaten alive.”My jaw tightened, but I kept walking. I’d heard these things

Kael’s POV“Pass me the towel,” the healer murmured, his hands moving swiftly over Donika’s head. The room smelled of herbs and incense.I knelt at Donika’s side, gripping her limp hand like it was the only thing holding me to this world. Blood matted her dark hair and streaked her pale skin. She looked still and fragile.Not again. Goddess, not again.“Don’t you dare leave me,” I whispered, my voice breaking in ways I hated. “Not you too.”Her lashes fluttered slightly, but she didn’t wake.The healer pressed a cloth soaked in salve to the wound. A faint glow pulsed beneath his palms, his power knitting flesh together, slowing the blood. “She’s strong,” he muttered, more to himself than me. “This one’s stronger than she looks.”I leaned closer, brushing a strand of hair from her face. Her skin was cold and clammy. My chest tightened until I felt like I couldn't breathe. Seeing her on the floor covered in blood triggered my memories of how SHE had died and made me feel like my life wo

KAEL’S POVDonika accepting me wholeheartedly as her mate wasn’t something I expected to happen immediately, but seeing her constantly pushing me away made me and Fenris down. Fenris in particular would sulk at every chance and would have torn Verya’s throat in two if I hadn’t stopped him on time. “I told you to stay away from Verya, but you left your ears next to your dick, and see where it landed our mate!” He had yelled when he saw Donika unconscious. He had never liked Verya one bit, but I still fucked her anyways, knowing fully well she was trying to weasel her way into the Luna, and in return for turning her away, she tries to kill my mate.Classic!Just as I thought about Donika, I remembered the words of the healer: “There’s power in her… but it seems to be trapped.”Even now, pacing in my private study, I could still hear the weight of that revelation echoing in my head. Donika might not be a cursed and wolfless girl. And if that power belonged to her wolf… then maybe fate h

“What are you doing here?” I ask in shock even though I knew the obvious: that she’s here to train me. But how? Isn’t she an Omega and not a Gamma wolf? Elena burst out laughing, pointing out my shocked expression to Ronan. “One would think she saw a ghost,” she said in between laughs to Ronan, who just stood there grinning. “Allow me to reintroduce myself, Luna. I’m Elena Stephan, a warrior of this pack who is now your lady-in-waiting and bodyguard.” She bowed in a mock flourish, smiling at me, but I was still at a loss at her new identity.“A warrior isn’t meant to be a lady in waiting, Elena…” I began but was cut short by Ronan. “The Alpha assigned her that task so she can watch over you even in his absence. It will be safer that way so you don’t have any fear settling in.” He explained, and I just nod in agreement. As he explained, I began to think of Kael in a different light than before. To think that he thought about my safety barely hours after he brought me into his pack w

KAEL’S POVThe office door slammed shut behind Ronan. My wolf prowled beneath my skin, restless and irritated at the interruption. Donika was back in my room looking all flustered and beautiful, and I hated being torn away from her. But one look at Ronan’s face told me this wasn’t something I could ignore.“Well?” I snapped, my tone edged with a growl. “You barged into my room and interrupted my time with my Luna. This had better be worth it.”Ronan bowed his head in respect, though urgency burned in his eyes. “The scentless wolf was spotted again. At the eastern border this time. By the tracks and size…” He hesitated, jaw tightening. “It seems to be a she-wolf.”I stilled in disbelief before snapping my head in his direction.“A she-wolf,” I repeated, voice flat but sharp with disbelief. “And she’s been outsmarting trained warriors for days now?”Ronan shifted under my stare. “That is what the scouts say, Alpha. The paw tracks were too light for a male and even the size of the wolf.
