All Chapters of THE LYCAN KING’S STOLEN MATE.: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

MERILYNFear squeezed my heart. The image blurred faster and faster by the second, but the car kept moving.“What are you doing?” I yelled frantically. “Stop the car!”“But the Beta—”“I said, stop the car!” I reached over and tugged at the door handle, trying to open it. The car halted, lurching me forward as the door flew open.I pressed my hands against the chair to steady myself before scrambling out the door. People watched, confusion and shock dancing over their faces as they saw me, panicked, scared, and stumbling on my feet as I ran towards the castle.Just as I got to the castle, I saw the blood droplets, the evidence that what I’d seen was right there. My heart stopped.A shiver ran down my spine, and I bolted into the castle, screaming at the top of my voice. “Beta Valios! Beta Valios!!”I ignored the looks I got from the castle staff, kicked off my shoes, and ran up the stairs barefoot, clinging to the railings.Before I knew it, I took the turn that led me to Kairen’s be

MERILYNIt has been a week since Kairen fell into a coma. The doctors kept saying he was healing, and yet he still hasn't woken up. Every day I went to his bedroom; every time I saw him still lying on the bed like that, it broke me.I spent my days in his bedroom, reading any book Gwen brought for me. Sometimes I read aloud to keep him company; other times, I just read to myself.I only ate when Gwen brought me food, and even then, I couldn't eat enough because it tasted bad. I was so worried for him, I had lost my sense of taste.Heira came often, bringing supplements that would wake him up faster, thanks to me always bothering her.The door opened, and Beta Valios walked in. “Merilyn, you're still here.”“Hm,” I answered, not moving from my spot as I watched the rise and fall of his chest. It was so slow that merely looking from afar, one would think he wasn't breathing.“Have you eaten?”“I just did. Thank you.”Silence descended again, and I turned to him. “Beta Valios, how long d

KAIRENAs the sweet liquid flowed through my body, the haziness in my head faded. My consciousness returned, and I could feel my own body again.My eyes snapped open, and I frowned when the strong scent of blood hit me in the nose.Blood? I drank blood?My fangs retracted. I could feel my claws sink back in as my body shifted back to normal.Where am I? Who was this?I looked up and found myself on my knees in the hallway.I closed my eyes, my hands pressed to the side of my head as I tried to remember how I got here. But after the morning in the forest, I couldn't remember anything anymore.A huge chunk of my memory was missing, and now… my gaze fell on my blood-stained hands… I killed someone.My vision swam, my tongue still tasted heavy, sweet, and metallic.I just drank blood. Something I've never done before. I should be struggling to keep it down. I should be trying to retch up the contents of my stomach, not revelling in the taste and analyzing the savoriness of….Oh, goddess,

THIRD PERSON'S POVKairen sat next to Merilyn’s bed, his hands cradling one of hers, as if anchoring her back to him. He barely spared the doctor a glance when he asked how she was.“Her condition is improving. Her wounds have also healed significantly. She should be waking up anytime soon.”Kairen nodded, his hands brushing back her hair. It had been three days since the incident, and staring at her heal from his attacks, knowing how close he'd come to killing her, made his heart skip with guilt.The doctor closed his file, bowed, and walked away, leaving the King with his Luna. Everyone in the pack prayed for her steady recovery because they thought she'd eaten something bad.But only the doctors and nurses available that day knew the real truth behind Merilyn’s condition. After their Beta had made them sign an NDA, no one dared to breathe a word about it.Kairen sighed as he pressed the back of her palm against his cheek. “Valios, any update on what I sent you to do?”Valios nod

MERILYN I gathered my skirt and raced towards them. They instinctively parted, letting me run up the podium with ease.I grabbed the torch from the soldier and threw it away. The smell of gasoline hit me so hard, I nearly threw up. They'd doused the young boy in fuel, ready to light him up.I rushed up to the boy. His hair had covered his face, blood was stuck to his skin, and the ropes dug into his hands.A sigh of relief escaped me when I heard his faint heartbeat. I instantly rushed to the ropes and began to untie them.“Don't just stand there!” I yelled at the guard who held the torch earlier. “Help me get him down.”He moved hesitantly to the second rope and undid it while the other soldier undid the ropes binding the boy's legs to the podium.“Here, carry him.” I handed the little boy to the other soldier. “And I swear to the goddess, if he has one more scratch on him, you'll regret it.”“Yes, Luna.”After making sure the boy was held properly, I turned to the crowd and the res
