All Chapters of The Last Female Lycan : Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

[Skylar's POV] My eyes snapped open, then I shut them back tight immediately as the bright morning daylight streamed through the sheer curtains straight into my eyes. My brain felt like it was spinning inside my skull, vibrating with a dull, persistent throb. Physical and mental exhaustion had eventually won the war the night before, dragging me under after hours of tossing and turning, but waking up felt no better than going to sleep. I dragged the heavy duvet completely over my head, burying my face deep into the soft fluff of my pillow in a desperate bid to block out the morning and drift back to sleep. I squeezed my eyes shut tight, praying silently to whoever was listening that the strange midnight voice had just been a weirdly vivid fever dream brought on by stress, late-night reading, or a severe lack of sleep. 'Oh, good, you're awake!' The voice bounced cheerfully through my head, clear as a bell and bright as a whistle. I winced as the sound vibrated right behind my eyes

[ Skylar's POV] "Smell what?" I slurred, shaking my head as the alcohol fought against her warning. "No... no.... my friends... I have to check on Maya and the others... where are they?" I asked as I dismissed the voice in my head. 'FORGET THEM! WE NEED TO RUN!' the voice screamed, but I ignored her warning, forcing my heavy, uncooperative legs to march down the dimly lit hallway toward the main bar area. As I rounded the corner, the world seemed to slow down into a nightmare. 'GO BACK SKYLAR!' the voice said again sounding very stern but yet, I paid no attention blocking the voice out of my head. Don't know how I did that, but it worked. The pulsing music had cut out completely, replaced by an agonizing, dead silence. The main bar floor was entirely cleared of living people. Tables were flipped, liquor bottles were smashed across the floor, and pool of deep, dark crimson blood washed over the hardwood tiles. Bodies lay motionless across the ground clubgoers, security g

[Xavier's POV]She did look enticing, standing there in the middle of the carnage like a forbidden temptation. But at the same time, she could just as easily be an enemy, a rogue. Her scent was completely elusive, almost impossibly bland.I could feel someone trying to push a mind-link through to me, but as Alpha, a link only opened when I allowed it. I counted to ten in my head, letting the silence stretch before finally opening the channel.‘Xav... Alpha. We're waiting for your command,’ Lena said over the link, her voice eager but respectful.I could practically sense her leaning closer to Brandon wherever he was. What was it with these two and sticking to each other like glue? She must have already mind-linked him before reaching out to me. A flicker of petty irritation flared in my chest.‘Why wouldn't she?’ Titus mocked, rolling his eyes in the back of my mind. ‘Jealous freak. If we had our mate standing right in front of us, you'd be ten times worse. I'm sure of it.’‘Shut up,’

[Skylar's POV] A wave of overlapping voices poured from the phone as everyone started talking at once, their voice filled with worry. I had to let them vent for a full minute before I finally raised my voice to cut through the noise."Guys, calm down, I'm okay!," I rushed to cut them off, wincing as a sharp pain flared behind my temples."Where the hell are you?! We've been calling you for hours! The police.. " Maya shrieked as she rushed to say her thoughts. "Listen to me! I'm fine," I assured them firmly. "I'm not hurt. I'm staying at a friend's house right now.""A friend's house?" Chloe chimed in, her tone instantly shifting from frantic to deeply suspicious. "What friend? We know all your friends, Skylar. Who is that friend you're staying with?""Just... an old friend," I lied smoothly, mentally crossing my fingers that they wouldn't press harder.‘Not that smooth,’ Lyra noted sarcastically. ‘An old friend? Pfft. They're your childhood friends. At least it's a bit believable. Y
