? Lucas
It’s been a month since the attack, and now everything is under control.
We put more guards on the borders to secure our kingdom, and even all the mystical creatures are in alliances to know who is behind this attack.
Unfortunately, the rogue we held hostage ended his life with a poisoned pill. We took the corpse to the laboratory for anatomists to determine the cause of death and for DNA profiling.
We found out that the cause of death is a magical poison, and the rogue DNA is mixed with demon, lycan, and werewolf genesis.
I think there’s some psychopath out there running experiments on all the mystical creatures, and that explains the constant kidnapping of all kingdoms and packs’ members of all genders and ages.
I think he wants to create some monsters.
Fuck !!!!
We need to catch this freak before something disastrous happens.
I was in my office when one of the petrol guards linked me.
“Beta Lucas, there’s a girl who wants to meet the queen, claiming that she’s her younger sister.”
“Hold her there; I’m coming right now.”
My Lycan is restless, pacing back and forth when I’m close to the border.
What’s happening to him? My heart is beating so fast, and I can’t breathe.”Why is my heart beating so fast? Why am I so happy?”
Then it hits me with the most exhilarating blast of vanilla and chocolate walls in my direction, making my lycan go wild.
“Mate,” he howled in my mind, “she’s here. Let’s go find her. Mark her as ours.”
I run to the border where the petrol guards are, and my eyes land on the most beautiful girl that I have ever laid eyes on.
I saw her sniffing the air, and our eyes locked. Her green eyes winded as a realisation and she mouthed.
“mate ”
She’s simply a gorgeous she-wolf with her dark curly brown hair and full lips, and fuck her curvy body sends a delicious sensation to my body. I cleared my throat, even though she’s my mate. I need to be careful. I don’t know her real intention; maybe someone sent her to harm us.
“Don’t scare away our mate, you idiot.”
“Shut up, you mutt; I’m being preoccupied.”
“How come you’re her sister when you are a werewolf?”
“My name is Ruby and I am her adoptive sister; take me to her; she will recognize me, I swear.”
“The queen is not here right now; guards will take her to the dungeon until the queen arrives,” I ordered.
She gasped at my order, and I felt the pain in her eyes; they were moist with tears as she quickly turned her head to the guard, who handcuffed her and guided her to the dungeon.
My lycan is growling and whimpering in pain.
.”How could you do that to our mate, treating her like a prisoner?”
“I am in pain too, but I need to make sure that she is not a threat. My responsibility is to make the kingdom safe from any danger.”
? Ruby
I can’t believe my own mate treated me like I was a filthy rogue!
He doesn’t care about me and doesn’t want me.
I sat on the cold, dirty floor and hugged my knees to my chest, resting my head on my thighs. I’m shaking like a leaf; the dark cells are frightening me, and I’m overwhelmed by the rotten smell.
Finally, the tears I have been holding back since he ordered the guard to put me in the dungeon fall fast and hard as the sobs wreck my slim body with their force.
I cried until I couldn’t keep my eyes open from tiredness, and I don’t know how time passed until darkness engulfed me.
I woke up to the sound of the cell door opening. My sight was blurred by the crying as the guard stepped forward toward me.
“The queen is here; she wants to see you.”
“Ruby ”
“Gina,” and I ran to her, pulling her for a warm hug as I cried tears of joy.
“I missed you, sister.”
She pulled out of the hug and looked at me with admiration; her eyes were shining with unshed tears of joy.
“Omg, Ruby, you’re all grown up. I never thought that I would ever see you again. I’m sorry I didn’t reach you all these years. Forgive me, sister.”
“It’s alright; you’re forgiving, and you have your reasons to never look back to that horrible place.”
“But what brings you here all of a sudden? What happened?”
I told her everything, from the day she left until today.
“Those fucking cruel people, I will kill them with my bare hands for what they do to their own daughter.”
“Don’t bother; they’re already living in hell.”I laughed.
“First, we need to get out of the dungeon; you must be tired; I will take you to one of the guest rooms; you need a shower and fresh clothes; and I will order some food; you must be hungry.”
“Thank you, Gina; I’m so grateful to you.”
“You’re my little sister; I will take care of you like you did in the past.”
“Come on, let’s go.”
I took a long, warm bath, relaxing my aching bones. It’s been a long time since I had one.
I take my time washing my hair and my body with the expensive products; it smells divine, and I feel like I’m in heaven.
I put on the bathrobe and went out to the bedroom. The room is gorgeous, very big, and enchanted. I laid down on the comfortable mattress of the king-sized bed and felt a pleasant sensation throughout my body.
I heard a knock on my door. It must be the servant coming with the food that Gina ordered.”Come in,” but it’s not the servant; it’s my so-called mate coming with a trail of food.
“What are you doing here?”
He rubbed his neck and said, “I’m here to apologise for my rude behaviour earlier.”
I scoffed, “I’m your mate, and you put me in the dungeon like I’m a filthy criminal.”
“I know, but please forgive me, baby. I only did it for the kingdom’s safety. A month ago, we were under attack by an abnormal creature, so we have to be careful.”
I blushed at the word baby.
“What’s your name?”
“I’m Lucas, the royal beta.”
“I’m Gina’s adoptive sister.”
“I know the queen told me everything.”
“Do you want me as your mate?” I shattered, afraid of his rejection.
“Of course I want you, baby girl. What’s your surname?”
“Stone ”
“I, Lucas Woods, accept Ruby Stone as my mate and my female beta.”
“I, Ruby Stone, accept Lucas Woods as my mate and beta.”
“Can I kiss you, Ruby?” I blushed and nodded my head.
For a moment, we clung to each other, our kiss evolving from tender to eager and on to passionate. His kiss was consuming, hungry yet sweet, teasing me with a hint of promise and driving my body to new heights of awareness. I returned his kiss passionately, and when he pulled his head back, I gazed up at him.
“We have to wait, baby, until our mating ceremony. And I will ravish every inch of your body, consume you and mark your body and soul as are mine forever.”
I smiled and pulled him into a warm hug.
Thank you, Moon Goddess, for giving me Lucas as my mate
