All Chapters of Bound to the Lycan: The Omega's secret : Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

I woke up with a sharp kick on my buttock."Get up, lazy bones."Beta Arthur's familiar voice cut through my sleep before I could even open my eyes.I groaned quietly, stretched my arms lightly and pushed myself upright on the narrow cot. The servants' quarters were still dim, with only thin streams of morning light slipping through the cracked window and before I could gather my thoughts, Arthur's imposing figure came into focus.He stood at the doorway with his two arms folded on his chest, and his expression was as cold and unreadable as ever.He simply stared at me for what felt like ten seconds The silence was suffocating and almost made me out of breath."My chamber, then Alpha Leo's." He said at last.Without another word, he turned and walked away.I released the breath I hadn't realized I was holding.Every morning began with orders, but Saturdays were the worst.They were the days I cleaned the Alpha's chamber.Most servants dreaded kitchen duty.I dreaded that room.But th

The silence in the room was brief as we discovered only a young omega standing in the doorway.She frowned."Did…I interrupt something?"Mira blinked first."Alice?""There you are!" Alice hurried inside, hands on her hips. "I've been looking everywhere for you. The head cook is furious. She said if you don't get back to the kitchen this instant, she'll have both our heads."Mira and I exchanged a quick glance.Relief flooded through me knowing she didn't hear us. "Oh..." Mira let out a breath. "Is that all?"Alice looked between us, confused."What else would it be?""Nothing," Mira answered quickly. "We're coming."Alice shrugged."Well, hurry up."She disappeared down the corridor as quickly as she had come. The moment she was gone, Mira shut the door again."I nearly had a heart attack.""You're not the only one." I muttered.She looked at me for a long moment before speaking."Please, don't go."I already knew what she meant."If Darius knows..." she continued, "...if anyone kno

The voices welcoming the Lycan King echoed all over Shadowclaw as I stepped out of my room.Servants hurried past with trays of food and wine and warriors lined on both sides of the path leading to the Sacred Grounds. The entire pack buzzed with excitement."Lucien!"I quickly turned to see Mira hurrying towards me. "There you are," she said, slowing her pace. "I've been looking everywhere for you.""I could say the same.""I'm sorry…after they took you to the recovery room, the head cook gathered all the servants in the kitchen. None of us were allowed to leave.""I figured." I nodded.She looked me over carefully."How do you feel now?""Better."She sighed but didn't argue. "Come on, we'll be in trouble if we arrive late."Together, we joined the crowd gathering at the Sacred Grounds. By the time we arrived, almost the entire pack was already there.A loud horn sounded and the massive gates creaked open. The Lycan King entered with his Royal Guards.Every wolf lowered their head im

How was I lying? I thought to myself I stared at the King, confused by what he'd meant. I had told him the truth. I genuinely didn't know whether Alpha Leo had a habit of punishing people before investigating their offences or was he referring to something else? "I don't understand, Your Majesty," I said after a brief pause. He studied me for a moment and scoffed. "Perhaps lying was the wrong word. You did answer my question but you also didn't tell me what you actually wanted to say." I got the memo. He wanted me to tell him my own side of the story. What was I supposed to say? I was tired of defending myself to people who had already decided I was guilty? Well technically, he wasn't one of those people. At least not yet but I no longer cared whether Arthur admitted the truth because his betrayal had taught me exactly where I stood. But at the same time I couldn't scrub lavatory floors for the rest of my life so something needed to be done. Nothing I say would change
