The Lycan Queen

Chapter 8

Leas POV

Sleep came quickly, and my dreams are full of delicious fantasies about the King. His raw, animalistic personality fills me with pleasure, and he will take me again and again. His touch, his kisses overwhelm me. I have never felt like this about anyone, not even with Cain. The excitement his anger lights in me is unbelievable, and I feel the need to disobey him just so he might punish me one day.

I can feel the coldness surround me and I open my eyes. My room is lit up by the moonlight. I can feel a person lurking in the shadows and my eyes are searching the room. Her face is pale and her eyes green. She has blood dripping from her neck and a bite mark. I sit up in my bed.

"Come closer, Kate. You don't have to be afraid of me." My voice was calm. She walked towards me and I embraced myself for her pain. She stopped by my bedside and smiled.

"Thank you." She touched my cheek and the pain consumed my body. I screamed when I felt the bite mark on my neck and the blood was dripping down my body. Then it all went black.

---------------

I woke up with panic and confusion, it was still in the middle of the night. I could feel the panic rise in my chest and I sat up in the bed. Before I knew it, a couple of strong arms pulled me back down and pulled me close to a warm chest. I take a deep breath, and it calms me immediately. I fall asleep again within seconds.

It feels like hours later when I wake up again. I can feel the sun on my face and the pain is all gone.

'When is this going to stop, Blade?'

'I don't know. But I'm sure the Moon Goddess knows what she's doing.'

'I know, but I need some sleep soon and a lot of it.'

I open my eyes and the light makes it difficult for my eyes to adjust. I take a deep breath and smell a delicious scent. Why do my room smell like the King? I turned around but couldn't see anyone. I stepped out of my bed and headed for the bathroom. I need a good, long shower. I looked down on the floor and noticed the blood from the bite mark was gone.

'Who cleaned that up?'

'I don't know. Maybe the King?'

'Are you crazy? He hates us and he doesn't look like someone who cleans.'

'If you say so.'

Blade is huffing in the back of my mind. She can feel something. Something she won't tell me. I take off my clothes and step into the steaming shower. My body is sore from the crossovers.

'They are getting worse.'

'I know. They are more painful.'

I massage the conditioner into my hair and shave my legs. I turn off the water and wrap a towel around my hair and get out of the bathroom. His scent hits me right in my face and I turn to the right corner of my room. He's sitting in a puffy chair. He's wearing a black suit and looks incredibly handsome. His eyes slide down my naked body, but the anger in his eyes catches my attention. That anger fills my body with anticipation and a desire for his body.

"You're late." His tone is cold and dangerous. I shrug and walk to my closet. I can feel his eyes on my ass.

"I thought this was a private room, Nathan." He growls and get up the chair. He walk towards me. I turn around and put on a t-shirt but never gets to a pair of panties before he has me pinned to the wall.

"We had a meeting 9 am. Did you forget?" His tone is a warning and I fail to listen.

"No, I just needed a shower. I thought you could easily wait?" He grabs my throat and moves his head down to my left ear.

"I'm your King. I wait for nobody. This is the last time you disrespect me, Lea." His chest presses up against mine, making my n*****s hard under his touch. I can feel the wetness between my thighs and I squeeze them together.

He pulls his head away and places it 2 inches away from my face. His eyes is dark with a hint of gold.

'Maybe that's his wolf?'

'I would love to meet him!'

A smirk appeared on his face as his gaze swept over me.

"You never learn, do you?" His fingers brushed against my jaw before trailing down my neck. Every muscle in my body tensed.

"I should punish you for being late." The words were low and dangerous.

"Then do it," I challenged. His eyes darkened. For a moment I thought he would. Instead, he stepped back. A slow smile spread across his face.

"That is exactly why I'm not going to." My breath caught in my throat.

"You want a reaction from me, Lea. You enjoy pushing my buttons." He picked up his jacket from the chair.

"And one day, that little game of yours is going to get you into trouble." He moved toward the door.

"Try not to be late again." The door closed behind him. I stared after him in disbelief.

'Holy s**t,'

I couldn't even argue with her.

I take off the T-shirt and starts looking through my closet and find my navy jumpsuit. It has a deep cut, which shows my breasts in the absolutely perfect way. It follows my curves and the navy makes my eyes stand out. I put it on and make a big braid in my damped hair. I put on some makeup and look in the mirror.

'You look stunning!'

'Thanks Blade, now let's go.'

I walk out the door and down the corridor. I reach the King's office and knock on the door.

"Come in!" He roar the words out. Perfect, he's still in a perfect mood.

I open the door and step into his huge office. It's dark, the walls painted dark blue and the curtains black. He has a mini bar with various forms of alcohol. A big desk made out of white oak, is placed in the middle of the room and behind it is he.

"So, what do you want to talk to me about?" I walk around his office and studies his different trophies and educations. He follows my movements.

"Sit down, Lea." His eyes lock onto mine. My mouth feels dry and I wet my lips. His eyes follows my tongues movement. His eyes darken with that golden touch again.

"I prefer to stand." I stand in front of his desk. He leans back in his chair and chuckle.

"You really don't like to take orders, huh?" He asks. I lean forward and place my hands on his desk, giving him a perfect view of my breast.

"No, not really. Care to tell me why I'm here?" I ask. His eyes is locked on my cleavage, more golden than ever. He shakes his head and his eyes returns to his normal hazel.

"You will be assigned to training this afternoon and tomorrow you will join the patrols from 8 pm to 11 pm." His words is an order but I can sense a little hesitation.

"But the alliance meeting is this afternoon, I have to attend." If he thinks I'm going to skip that meeting, he's a fool.

"You will not attend the meeting. The meeting is only for Alphas. You will be training with Beta Damon." He growls and stand up from his chair. He walks to the mini bar.

"Why can't I attend? Normally, Alphas want their Betas to be by their side. Why don't you?" I ask curiously.

"Lea, just do as you're told. You will not attend that meeting." He turned around with a glass of bourbon in his hand and fixed me with a deadly stare.

"Why?" He doesn't even blink.

"Because I'm telling you not to." I huffed.

"That's not an answer." His jaw tightened.

"It's the only one you're getting." A smirk tugged at my lips.

"Fine, I won't." I'm heading for the door.

"I knew you would give in eventually. Good girl, Lea." I freeze and slowly turn around.

"If you think I'll obey you because I hope you might f**k me someday, you're an even bigger fool than I thought." I wink and slam the door behind me.

I walked down the corridor to Cains room and knocked on his door. He opens within seconds and looks like death.

"What the hell happened to you? You look awful!" I can't stop laughing at my best friends miserable face.

"Shut up and get in." He growls. He stepped aside and I walked into his room. The bed was a mess and clothes was spread everywhere.

"I needed to hurry last night. The King summoned me to your room." He looked at me with concern and I gave him a confused look.

"Why?" Is all I can ask. Cain sits down on his bed.

"I couldn't hear you scream last night but the King could. He summoned me to your room and stayed with you the rest of the night. Didn't you wake up next to him?" Cain looked confused and ran a hand through his messy hair.

"No, I didn't. Are you saying the King stayed in my room all night? Why the hell would he do that?" I mumbled the last words to myself. Then it wasn't a dream, he was the strong arms pulling me into his chest. His scent that calmed me.

"Did you arrange a meeting with Savannah?" I asked him. He nods.

"Yes, you're meeting her in the forest at 11. Do you want me to go with you?" He stood up and walked over to me, looking into my eyes.

"No, it's risky enough that I'm meeting her. You will draw too much attention. Come on, let's get some breakfast." I gave him a hug and a big reassuring smile.

Breakfast was down in a hurry and I took off into the forest. Cain told me she would be near a clearing about two miles to the north. I walk through the forest, enjoying the beautiful trees and the smell of wood and grass. I reached the clearing and waited. I could hear some pups playing near the main house.

I could suddenly smell a different scent and I managed to step aside right as 2 knives came flying throwing into the air.
