All Chapters of Once Betrayed; Now Wanted By The Lycan King: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

SeleneFor a moment, I honestly believed I misunderstood Amelia’s words. My mind refused to process what she had just confessed because none of it made sense to me. I felt frozen in place as I stared at her, while waiting for someone to laugh and say this was all a terrible joke.But nobody laughed. Instead, the room remained painfully silent.I slowly looked around at everyone’s faces, trying to understand what was happening. My father looked shocked, while my mother stared at Amelia with confusion written all over her face.Then my eyes moved toward Tyler.My mate stood quietly near the fireplace wearing the black suit he was supposed to wear for our engagement ceremony. His jaw looked tense, and his hands trembled slightly by his sides. But the worst part was the fact that he refused to look at me directly. His gaze kept shifting toward Amelia instead.And that alone made my stomach twist painfully. Finally, Tyler spoke.“Amelia,” he said quietly. “Stop this. Not here.”The momen

SeleneThe moment Amelia screamed, everything around us became chaotic.Footsteps echoed loudly and confused voices filled the air as people rushed into the hallway immediately. Guests pushed closer to see what had happened, and within seconds my parents and Tyler appeared in front of us.I stood there frozen while Amelia cried on the floor holding her bleeding shoulder. I hadn’t even noticed the blood dripping from my palm.Blood stained her dress and her body shook as tears streamed down her face. Then she pointed at me.“Selene stabbed me!” she cried loudly as my chest tightened painfully.“What?” I gasped immediately. “No! That is not true!”Tyler rushed toward Amelia first. He dropped beside her quickly and grabbed her carefully while checking the blood on her shoulder.“Amelia,” he said urgently. “Look at me.”“She attacked me,” Amelia cried while leaning against his chest. “I only wanted to talk to her.”I shook my head desperately.“No,” I cried. “She is lying!”The guests beg

Selene Warmth was the first to wake me. It wasn’t pain, screaming, metal doors slamming, or cruel laughter echoing down a gray hallway. It was simply warmth. For one disorienting second I laid beneath that warmth, too dazed to understand why it felt wrong. My body was heavy and every limb ached as though I had been stitched together from bruises, but the bed beneath me was soft, softer than anything I had touched in months. The blanket smelled clean, and the air was warm. Safe, I thought, and my eyes flew open. The moment it did, I panicked so fast that I tried to sit up, and a sharp pain tore through my body hard enough to force a cry from my throat. “Careful.” I froze as a deep, close male voice said. My heart slammed against my ribs as I looked around the dimly lit room in confusion, my gaze sweeping over the luxurious interior that looked untouched by suffering. Nothing about it made sense.Then I saw them. My heart dropped as soon as my eyes fell on two men standing sev

Selene's POVBefore I could comprehend the meaning behind his words, Kael was already in front of me, pulling me out of his grip.“The next time you touch my sister again…” he began." She was falling,” Lucian cuts in." Then let her fall,” Kael snapped back. " That is what your family knows how to do best, letting people down.’“That's enough," Kieran said, stepping between them. “Selene does not need this now." “She needs to know her enemy," Kael disagreed. “The sooner she does, the better. That's how she will stay safe." “If you consider me an enemy," Lucian replied. “Then you have a problem, because last time I checked, you have a bigger fish to fry." "You are an enemy,” Kael repeated.Lucian scoffed. " How broken are you, Kael?”Before anyone could react, Kael sent a hard blow across Lucian's face. But he didn't stumble, he didn't even move or flinch."Ahhh,” I screamed and crumbled to the floor, as a sharp pain shot across my face.Everybody's attention turned to me immediate

Selene's POV The world tilted violently as my knees buckled; pain exploded through my shoulder, hot and jagged, like someone had driven a blade straight into the joint. I cried out, clutching at the wound as warm blood soaked through my fingers. The last thing I saw was Kael’s face, twisted with fury and fear, rushing toward me before everything went dark.When I woke, the familiar scent of healing herbs and burning sage filled my nose. I was lying on the wide bed in the infirmary, my shoulder tightly bandaged. Every breath sent a dull throb through the injury. My eyelids felt heavy, but I forced them open.“Selene!” Kieran was at my side instantly, his hand gentle on my uninjured arm. Kael stood by the window, arms crossed so tightly his knuckles were white. He looked like he was ready to tear someone apart.“What… happened?” My voice came out raspy. I tried to sit up, but a fresh wave of pain pinned me down.“You collapsed,” Kael said, turning to me. His eyes were dark with barel
