Dante???
But...how??
Oh, fuck this. I am missing my dinner.
I got up from the ground and sat down on the chair.
The guards were not alerted.
And why is that?
Ahh yes fucking magic!
My dinner was starting to get cold, so I ate it with less appetite before.
After having my dinner, I went to my chamber and dismissed my guards.
My maids helped me to get ready for bed. The comfort of soft silk and the soothing effect of bath made me sleepy.
And I was extremely exhausted with day's activities. So the minute I hit the luxurious soft warmth of my bed, I fell asleep quickly.
***
A loud thud made me awake...I peered around in the dark. A dark figure was standing in the dark. And my body immediately recognized him.
"My King...Are you finished with the council?"
He grunted...And then went into the bathroom. I faintly heard the shower starting before I drifted off to sleep again.
In my slightly dazed state, I heard the bed dip and a sound of purring as Lucus spooned me from behind. But as soon as his nose gazed on my neck, he stiffened and released a low feral growl.
"Who touched you!"
Uhhhh oh shit...
"Uhmmm well...You see...urghhh...Dant...e.”
I whispered the last part nervously.
But of course, Lucus heard it as he released an animalistic growl.
"Fucking DANTE??
I will kill that bastard!!!"
Then with a swift movement, he flipped me around and pinned my body under his muscular weight. Then with his long canines ,he ripped apart my night gown. Followed with his only cloth, which was a boxer.
"That bastard tried to rake you in my absence!!
I will scent you so that every fucking male, including that imbecile. Know that you are ONLY MINE!!!"
And with that he started to lick my whole body like the dog he is.
And with every passing second it felt like, he was imprinting his scent into my skin.
"I felt someone was touching you through our bond...
But never thought he would be so low to manipulate his thrones' power on me...
If he is manipulating his power...so can I!
He will never know what came upon him.”
He traced my nipples with his rough yet warm tongue while muttering these things. My skin was bear to his eyes and moonlight danced on my skin. After he licked all my body leaving not an inch behind, he rubbed his body on me. It was so arousing to see him, claim me like that and he inhaled deeply savoring my arousal in the air.
"Not tonight mate.”
His scent enveloped me like a second blanket. And only after he made sure that his claim poured into my skin, he stopped.
"My King...Is Dante coming tomorrow?
And if so have you figure out a plan?"
I hesitantly asked.
"Do not speak of that fucker my mate!
And to answer your question, no. His commander has sent a letter informing me that they will wage war in seven days if I fail to give you to him.
Uhh! Like I fucking care!!
They are stupid if they think they can defeat me.”
"I am sure you can protect me Lucus.
I know that...What are we going to do.?
What happened with the council?"
"The council wants to protect you as much as I want. You are their queen. We discussed for hours and came to a final decision."
"And what is that My King?"
"We are declaring war!"
***
The night was peaceful.
I felt so safe in my mates’ arms and his body heat was warming up my whole body.
But...
It all started to happen in slow motion and...
Screams and shouts woke me up...
Our chamber was on fire and My King was trying to wake me up. At first I didn't hear a anything.
It was only screams and screams. Wolves howling in pain and women screaming in pain.
The roaring of fire surrounded me.
And as Lucus started to carry me away I saw what was happening around me.
Piles of bodies and parts of bodies were scattered around the once beautiful halls.
Dark crimson blood decorated the walls drenching everything with blood.
The smell of burning flesh filled the air. I coughed and Lucus spared me a worried glance. Soon we were out from the palace.
And the outside was no better. Men and wolves were fighting and tearing each other apart. Some wolves were tearing and chomping down of still breathing men.
Some were burning and the outside was like a brutal war on its worst rage.
Men wearing black cloaks were raping women on floor while the wolves were fighting against the dark forces.
I was utterly terrified and Lucus set me on my feet near the tree line of the woods.
"Amelia...My love...listen.
I have to help my people...
You have to stay here in this circle. Do not step aside!
This the only place that can protect you now...
I have used my power to make sure of it.
Stay inside and be safe...
Can you do that for me?"
"Uh…y-yes...Lucus...b-but...be safe!!" I uttered with trembling lips…
He nodded his head and kissed me softly on lips before running back to his people.
He shifted in midair into his massive wolf form.
And as soon as the pack saw his wolf, powerful and mighty, they howled to the night sky.
The battle was savage and terrifying.
Everywhere I looked, there were torn body parts and raping.
A man whose hand was ignited with some strange light stalked a child who was no more than 3 years old.
A pup...
Who was scared and lonely in the massive blood bath?
I tried to shout to him, but oh no...
The man lighted the poor pup on fire. And then tore his small hands and legs.
Then with a sickening laugh threw it to a nearby tree. At the time he was finished, there was nothing left of the boy.
My mouth was hanging open and I was in shock. A loud howl tore through the night and I witnessed more wolves and men were dead.
It seemed to me like both parties were losing. But still they fought. My heart clenched painfully for the little pup, and for the women, as men raped them while their children were screaming for them.
I tried to see my mate. To see whether he is safe or not.
I saw the Omicron leading palace guards while the High Beta was leading Karys.
They all were fighting alongside their King.
Some in human form. Some in wolf form.
But they all looked tired and bloody...Suddenly a dark figure emerged through shadows.
"Give up Lucus.
Give her to me. Or else your pack will die!"
And I instantly knew who it was...
Dante.
"NEVER!!!!"
My mate's powerful animalistic growl vibrated through the field. And then with lightning movements he pounced on Dante.
After his initial shock wear off, Dante’s' body started to glow and then they both started to fight like a blur.
Canines snapping and viscous growls filled the battle field.
The pained growls and the sound of skin ripping threw me off guard.
Both of them were fighting in their wolf form.
And the snarling of their wolves made me sick with fright…
They were hurting each other because of me.
Because of me...
I have to stop this before one of them dies!
My panicked thoughts overpowered me and just when I was about to step out, Dante shifted to his human form and rose in the air with a white glowing aura surrounding him, and I was dazed with amazement.
His hands shot out a blinding white light to Lucus. It struck The King hard, and his wolf stumbled with its power.
My heart clenched painfully and ached with the attack on my mate. I broke from the tree line and started to run towards him.
I realized how much I care and love for him in that moment. The fear of never seen his golden eyes again and losing him, nearly made me mad.
But just before I reached him, The High Beta grabbed me.
And then I saw the most mesmerizing thing.
Shadows from everywhere surrounded my mate like a cloak and he rose to his hinder legs with an earth-shattering roar.
His form started to change and right then and there I knew his patience and suppressing his power was over.
His deep roar vibrated through the clearing and when his transformation finished, his demon Lycan form towered over everyone.
He summoned his dark powers and black tendrils shot from his body, attacking Dante.
The white glowing power clashed with midnight black power. Dante was at disadvantage with his lack of experience compared to The King, and I saw right through him, how much it was affecting him.
The ancient powers struggled and The Kings ancient Lycan power was wining.
I wanted both of them to survive and not to fight against each other.
My heart ached for them.
But I was stuck in the middle and the High Beta was keeping me from running towards them.
And by every passing minute, it seemed like Dante was losing the battle.
The King was gone and only his Lycan commanded his body.
And I knew that soon the blood thirsty tyrant was going to kill Dante.
He didn't deserve this.
He didn't deserve to be left alone in this world without the love of his parents.
This was so much cruel from both of the sides, and I was feeling every effect of it.
My mind was losing its sense with the white aura thinning around Dante.
And just when I was going to bite the bastard, who was holding me...
Lucus shot his other arm from his side and added red tendrils mixed with midnight black.
His Throne power.
And it blasted the white aura which was surrounding Dante. My heart ripped open, and my eyes bulged, when I saw Dante exploded into millions of pieces. A high-pitched, strangled cry filled the air, and it took me a minute to realize, that it was coming from me.
The Lycan King turned around and his victorious eyes alarmed with worry.
And just before I lost myself to the darkness I understood how much I cared not only for the Mighty Werewolf King but also for the new Arogon King...
