All Chapters of Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

ADELINEThe sound of the guard screaming as his head connected with the concrete brought me out of my trance. With all the strength I could muster, I subdued Tara and snatched back control of my limbs.When I looked up, I saw the other guard taking a cautious step back. “I'm sorry,” I apologized to the guard on the ground. “Let the man inside. If he says it's urgent then let him through.”My voice was shaky as I spoke. I tried not to focus on Tara's angry voice telling me not to apologize. I hadn't meant to step in the way I did, and despite wanting the tiniest bit of respect, I didn't want it like this. ‘You’re going to have to start being unapologetic if you want respect from these assholes,’ Tara hissed. I ignored her. The man bowed to me. “Thank you, Miss. Thank you. I am Alpha Samuel from–”“What the hell is going on here?!” A sharp voice boomed before he could finish. I whipped around to see a man I recognized as Gamma Carius. He pushed me aside and made straight for the gu

DOMINIC As my men and I headed back to the estate, I felt my anger and disbelief building with every mile. The sheer nerve of Adeline. She had no rank, no knowledge of strategy, and no understanding of what it meant to commit a pack to war.I still couldn't fathom what could have led to her getting involved in pack politics, but I was going to find out. About an hour later, I returned to the palace, exhausted and furious. The elders were waiting for me in the council hall when I strode in. Immediately, they jumped to their feet. “Welcome, Alpha!” They greeted in unison. “My King,” Elder Fane began, bowing low. “We are glad to see you received our message and returned safely. The situation on hand is dire. We acted in your best interest and decided against aiding the defeated Alpha Samuel. We knew you would never waste resources on a lost cause far away.”“But that omega stepped in,” Elder Rona cut in quickly. “It was not our fault. We were overruled. She came into the assembly hal

ADELINE “Hello,” I greeted, my voice sounding small and weak compared to hers.I let go quickly. As I looked at her, I felt the ugly, cold comparison start in my mind. Her clothes were perfect. Her hair was perfect. She was so gorgeous. Everything about her screamed wealth and status. Meanwhile, I paled standing next to her. Mentally, I fought to get a grip on myself, hating that I was spiraling over this. What happened to the confidence I'd been trying so hard to build? What happened to never letting anyone make me feel bad about myself ever again?I tried to shake off all those feelings, but my mind continued to whirl with different thoughts, all regarding Alpha Dominic. Who was she? An ex-girlfriend? A lover? I recalled Alpha Kaelor saying that Alpha Dominic had never had a girlfriend. Maybe he'd been wrong about that. Maybe not. No matter the case, Clarissa was clearly someone Alpha Dominic cared deeply about. That made my stomach twist painfully. “It's nice to finally meet

DOMINIC I was trying to focus on what Marcus was saying but that was proving difficult. The air was thick with tension and humidity, and even though she was a good distance away from me, I could feel her. When she'd first arrived at the pool, I struggled to keep my eyes away, getting a hold on my Lycan and forcing him to still. The attraction that had started out as a manifestation of the mate bond was slowly morphing into something else. I caught myself staring at her sometimes, drinking in her delicate features. The most recent thing I noticed was an admiration for her, especially for how she had handled the situation with the Alpha who had come asking for help. I found that I was beginning to feel things I shouldn't. Not only were attraction and desire useless emotions, they also threatened to veer me off the path I had set for myself. I needed a woman with something to offer. Someone of high standing, influence wide enough to create ideal alliances. If a union between two peo

ADELINEAfter I’d donned more comfortable clothes, I made my way out to the field area, Clarissa in tow. Everyone else was already dressed and ready, standing beside their partners. While Clarissa walked down to pair with the only single man in the group, I walked towards Alpha Dominic.Clarissa’s words from earlier resounded in my head and I found myself wondering again what could have happened to him. The realization that I knew nothing about him hit me squarely in the face as I took my place next to him, avoiding his eyes because I feared he would see right through me.In total, there were twelve of us, paired into six teams. Clarissa stepped forward. “Okay, the competition will be in three stages. Two games will be played today and after each stage, two couples will be eliminated. Tomorrow is the finale where the top two couples will compete for the grand prize!”Grand prize?I glanced round at the group of obviously wealthy people and I couldn’t help but wonder but kind of prize
