Lahat ng Kabanata ng Bride of the Lycan King: Kabanata 51 - Kabanata 60

"Jessica!"I shook her and she blinked a couple of times, her face was as white as snow and her jaw hung open slightly. I dug my nails into her skin, moving closer to peer at her,"How did you know I was held in a building?" I hissed slowly, my eyes narrowed into slits.Her alarmed gaze darted furtively from one eye to the other and she shakily. "I-I-""Tell me!" I screamed angrily, the hold on her quivering. My chest rose and fell shakily, eyes bleary from moisture.I was right! Jessica was behind my capture. I knew she was a bad person but what I didn't expect was this. How could someone stoop so low?As if a flip had been switched, her countenance changed from skittish to furious. She shoved at my chest harshly, causing me to lose balance and land on the floor.I heard collective gasps from the people around us but nobody moved to intervene. Jessica glowered at me, dusting off the spot I'd held earlier,"It was on the news, everyone knows you escaped from a building and ran into th

A weak groan slipped past my lips as I lazily turned to the side, my fingers scraping against the moist sand. The smell of earth and leaves filtered into my nose and I coughed lightly, pushing myself to a sitting position. My muscles protested at the sudden movement, a wince contorting my features as I managed to sit upright.For a moment, my vision blurred and all I could see was the hazy outlines of the trees surrounding me. My head was throbbing like crazy and my ribs hurt, the constant chirping of the birds overhead only served as an annoyance."Shit," I cursed when my fingers made contact with the back of my head, the spot was tender and sore. Bright splotches of red cover the tips of my fingers.I had to get out of here, and fast.I looked around warily, the entire area was empty save for a few squirrels darting around the bushes. My breathing was heavy and laboured, a dizzy spell threatening to overtake me. When I looked up, the bright ray from the sunlight shone on my face and

The crystal droplets felt like ice on my skin and a soft exhale escaped through my lips. I dipped my fingers back into the cool water, mesmerised by the way it made my skin luminescent. It had been a week since the incident and Clara was evicted from the house, her family was also taxed for delivering ten per cent of stocks in addition to her pack being banned from ever crossing foot into the Capital. In truth, I still couldn't fathom why she would do that. What did Jessica offer that was more valuable than her dignity? I deeply inhaled, retracted my hand from the water and tipped my head back. The sky was unusually dark tonight and bleak of stars, the moon looked like a big round ball of white and it reminded me how hollow I felt. The next round was tomorrow and I had no idea what to expect and for some strange reason, I was missing him.My fingers went up to my neck, clutching the small gem that rested below my collarbone. He'd said the stone reminded him of my eyes, ironically, i

The entire court was thrown into pandemonium after they'd heard the news. Calloway had left, leaving only Carissa to care for the panicky girls. I was confused, not understanding why everyone was so pale with fear. The doors to the court were closed shut, the windows locked and guards stationed around the building. Everyone was on high alert and no one wanted to go back into their rooms."What are shadow wolves?" I turned to face Cora who had a pensive expression on his face, "Cora?" She blew out a shaky breath, threading a finger through her dark curls. Paige was no better, she kept chewing into her nails, and an arm was wrapped around her middle. "Only the most fearsome wolves in the underworld," She whispered eerily, "Nobody knows where they are located, rumours have it that they live deep in the bottom of the earth and they're are descendants of the original Lycans." Now, I was even more confused. I had never heard of this legend before more so imagined that they truly existed.

My blurry eyes tried to focus on the screen of my phone. My mind was racing with different thoughts and the space between my fingers was beginning to get sweaty.Twenty missed calls.Ten unread messages, the recent one sent three minutes. I blew out a breath and threw the phone on the bed. I raked my fingers through my hair and shut my eyes tightly. My brain felt like it would combust any moment from now,I couldn't get what happened last night out of my head. I could still feel his hot breath fanning my face, the tiny claw marks on my face had managed to heal a bit.'Lefkós Lýkos.'The words filtered into my ear, making my eyes fly open. I quickly grabbed my phone, tapping on the Google icon,When I typed out the words, it took a little while but the answers popped right up. My eyes widened a fraction and my lips parted slightly,"Dahlia!"I jumped from my spot, frightened eyes falling on Paige. She arched a brow at my skittish attitude but I brushed it off with a shaky smile,"Come
