The Rogue Lycan's Mate

King Among Kine

An intimidating man dressed in black but in torn clothes, looking more than six feet tall, with raven hair and glowing golden eyes. His presence demanded submission and his aura emitted dominance. The werewolfs present here surrendered to him as soon as they saw him walked past by them with heavy, arrogant and confident steps. Even lycans bared their necks open in submission as soon as they sense him. It offended the king, it was too obvious. When I saw my parents in a situation like this  for the first time, I could not help but feel a great fear in my chest. Just as I was about to turn to my mother and ask what had happened, she silenced me with a quick gesture and pressed my head to prevent me from looking at this horrifying man. But my curiosity was so strong that I tried to look at him out of the corner of my eye even as my mother was pressing her hand on the back of my head. I couldn't see his face clearly but I even can say without looking at him that he is dangerous. As she holding my head down, my mother's hands were trembling in fear and nervousness was all wrtitten on my father's face too. Mom sniffed me for a few times and she let out a big but low voiced breath as if she was relaxed about something. I saw dad to signal mom with his head and Enit started to hold my hand tightly. But they didn't dare to move. I wonder why.

 While everyone remained silent and frozen, the Lycan king started shouting at this man with a strong and furious voice. "How dare you step your dirty foot in here, murderer?! A savage, a feral exile like you doesn't deserve to be here. Go back to the dirt where you belong or I won't stop myself for taking your life even if you're my son! Blasphemy of our kind! Killer of his kin! Begone!" he roared, no, he barked. 

As the Lycan king roared like this, even though I was a few meters away,  I began to tremble with fear. But the man the lycan king was yelling at, his son, grinned unimpressed and in disdain, showing his white and big canines with great sarcasm and arrogance. He folded his arms in front of him, then turned to the king and raised an eyebrow. "Weak. You are weak as always, father. And do you know why? Because you eat and digest just like those mere humans." he said. As soon as I started to hear his voice when he spoke, I shuddered and got goosebumps all over my body. A cold sense jolted from my stomach to my chest. Deep, hoarse and powerful voice that has he.  "You rude brat! You're disgusting enough to defend your mess and your twisted nature! Get out! Begone I said! Now!" the king roared again. Standing in front of the king with his arms folded, the sarcastic expression on the man's face slowly turned into an angry scowl and a snarl, he forced himself to smile angrily once again but it looked like he was clenching his jaw. "I'm not here for you or this stupid celebration you're having. According to the information I received from a shaman in Aklavik, oh, where you exiled me, you must have recalled there, I came to claim my possession bestowed to me by the moon. Where is she? You must have sniffed her scent. Especially you, my dear mother. You can't separate me from my mate. I won't let that happen. Never again." he said, his voice was dripping with anger and sarcasm. The queen sighed heavily, then gestured the other lycans and werewolves to leave.  "There is no such person here. If she did, you'd be able to smell her from miles away." she said.I noticed that the Queen was looking at my mother out of the corner of her eye as she spoke. I didn't understand what it meant, but as I got farther away, I couldn't hear what they were talking about. My mother muttered something to my father silently then my siblings and I, who had already returned from the jungle run, got in the car and drove home again.

It's really best to leave the mess there behind.

"Ah! It can't be! I lost my favorite bandana!" I protest to my clumsiness. Since my hair was short and blunt, I couldn't wear normal hairpins, and I was keeping it at back of my face by wearing a bandana. But this little protest of mine didn't really matter to any of them in the car right now because they were still not over their tension and shock at what had just happened. But not just that. There was something different in the air making my chest tight and knot in my throat bigger.

"Is it true that lycan prince eats human flesh and... raw, mother?" Jackson asked. While my mother remained silent, I was shocked by Jackson's question with my mouth open. "Eating human flesh?! What kind of a freak do that?! Bleagh!" I asked and spat. "Stop your bullshits pups and try to rest, we have a long way home." mom berated us. I'd never seen her like this before. Her hands were still trembling.

After 3 or 4 hours, my father's phone rang. The caller was the alpha of Bluemoon pack in Idaho. I didn't understand what he was saying, but my father's face suddenly turned white and my mother eyes got wider. The car skidded slightly as my father slammed the brake and me and my siblings screamed in fear when we heard the wheels peeled.

"This is impossible! Stop the nonsense and leave me and my family alone!" my father roared to an alpha. It is very dangerous among wolves to shout and oppose someone who is stronger than oneself in stats and in physically. But for my father, when it comes to his family, it doesn't matter who he is against. I nudged my head closer to the phone to hear a little better. For the first time, my mother had an expression of fear on her face like this one. What the heck is going on? My siblings could hear all the conversations on the phone from where they were, thanks to their wolf hearing. My mother turned to me in concern. "Where did you lost your bandana, baby?" mom asked and a crushing sound occurred. I couldn't hear where it came from. My family started to sniff the air quickly and the car door at the side where I was sitting pulled off in an instant. 

"Mine!" a voice roared. As soon as I heard this voice, I had goosebumps all over my body and a wave of coldness spread through my spine. My body became frozen and my mind stunned. And as he touched my arm to pull me outside of the car my skin burned. As soon as I heard his voice, I had a shiver all over my body and a wave of coldness spread through my spine all again. And as he touched my arm to pull me outside of the car, my hands started to tremble. His mere presence was enough to dominate even the air. Who was this man? That I don't know. His muscular torso was presed against my back as I tilted my head up to look at his face and his hot and uneven breath was torching my cheeks. His arms were holding me so tight that I couldn't move an inch.The same scary man at the celebrations. The same golden, glowing, scary, ominous eyes and large canines and tall, masculine build. A huge, insane bastard. But this time there is absolutely no smile on his face, no, just an intimidating, terrifying look that I can't understand why, and fierce and ferocious eyes like a starving animal.

Like I had no weight at all he lifted me up then started to sniff me. But all I could see was displeasure in his eyes. He was holding my bandanna while I was looking into his eyes with horror and confusion. He brought his nose close to my neck and inhale deeply. While he was not content with that and started licking my neck, my mother turned into her wolf form and pounced on him to attack. He neutralized my mom with an inhuman speed. He was now holding my wrist tightly with one hand, and grabbed my mother by the throat in mid air with the other.

While holding my mother in the air without any effort, my father also transformed into his wolf form and was about to jump on this villain then Enit shouted. "Father, don't! He is a lycan and not even a mere one! You can't win this! Stop offending him, both of you!". After Enit's statement, I managed to pull myself together. "Leave my family alone! Don't hurt them!" I snapped at him and started to hit his arm and chest. And to my surprise, he did as I said, throwing my mother away, not in a very gentle way, still holding my wrist in acknowledgment of my presence, he is now looking right into my eyes once again. He caressed my face lightly with the back of his hand, and everywhere he touched on my face started to throb. Just as I was savoring this delicate touch unintentionally, his delicate hand that touched my face suddenly grabbed my chin and his fingers began to sink into my face like a predator clawed its prey. He grabbed my face, brought it close to his own and then licked it. "Your smell is weird right now, but I can guess why. Get ready, my little mate, we're going home." he said.

"What the f**k are you doing you maniac?! What mate? What house?" I yelled. 

He was still holding my face with one hand and tilted his head back slightly. He raised an eyebrow and put on a facial expression that showed his displeasure with my answer. My siblings rushed to help her as my mother tried to stand up slowly. My father, on the other hand, realized that he was not capable to fight this vile man, so he tried to compromise and revert his form. Damn, seeing my father butt naked will haunt me for years.  "Prince Aidan. I don't fully understand what's going on here right now, but it's pretty clear there's something wrong. My daughter, Muiri is a human. She cannot be your mate. This is impossible for you are a purebred lycan." he said. Aidan...

The grim expression on his face softened a bit when he realized that my father was trying to reconcile. But he still smiled slightly, both angrily and contemptuously. "Stop f*****g around with me, you tamed blood. I know what you did and believe me I will make you all pay for that. You hid her away from me for all this years but not anymore. And I will let you live for you safeguarded her with care. Now stop meddling in things you don't understand or can't understand. If you stand in my way again, I'll shred you all to pieces. Get the f**k outta here before me and my beast change our minds." he said and pull me a bit more closer to him possessively. Then he began to search for something in his ripped pockets. "f**k!" he cursed. He turned to me and extended his hand. "Give me your phone." he ordered. I looked at him without answering. I want him to understand that I am able to defy him. I already have a hatred for this scumbag because of his attitude towards my family and for hurting my mother. "Let me go you bastard!" I shouted at him and slaped his face. As my family's gaping, confused and worried eyes met my eyes, I heard a growling sound, a snarl. Oh, angry is he. I can tell. "Looks like I'm going to have so much fun with you." he said while his canines were getting dangerously closer to my neck. Even though I was frozen, I refused to be defeated and just as I was about to place my hands on his chest and push him away from me a strange thing happened. That is as soon as my hands touched his large, hard chest, I heard a quiet and soft groan and low whining coming from within it. He must have realized this too, because right after the sound he made, he covered his mouth with his hand and cussed silently.

For a brief moment, his eyes, which had looked in defeat, turned to rage. "I told you to give me your f*****g phone, now!" he roared again. I threw my phone back and started running towards my mom as Aidan made a move to grab it. He must not have liked me to be walking away from him, for he growled loudly when he saw me running towards my mother, but when he saw where I was standing he did nothing to stop me. I caressed my mother's face, and involuntarily, tears began to appear. My mother's wolf had healed her, she had no wounds or pain, but still, witnessing such a scene scared me. Aidan, who had finished talking on the phone, started to look at me. With a devilish smile on his face, this savage had no conscience at all. His eyes now is only focused on me and the angry and confused expression on my face. He started to approach me with taking heavy steps, looking dissatisfied with the expression on my face. "Tell your family nicely to get the hell out of here." he said while looking at me and my family in disdain. My mom grabbed me by the shoulder and pulled me behind her and stood in front of Aidan, gathering all her confidence. While my mother's eyes filled with concern and fear, Aidan's were telling another story. They looked into each other's eyes without blinking once. "Do you really believe that she is your mate? If she was, you would feel her at the celebrations. You must not deceive yourself, prince of hatred. Tell me your purpose." she said calmly but threatening. He rolled his eyes at my mother. "It would not be the right decision for you and your family to come between a lycan's mate and him, you know very well what kind of consequences you will suffer. It is not my intention to harm you and your family, mother wolf. My only intention is claiming my mate and leaving here with her and then starting our mating process. And I will have my answers once I mark her." he said. My parents knew how important the mating process was and of course how valuable a mate given by the moon is. But it's unheard of for a human to be a mate for a lycan. When mates find each other, no one and nothing can prevent their union, that is at least how I heard it. They feel a pull for each other and everything becomes insignificant to them, as if they were the only ones in the world.  Aidan clearly felt this pull to his bones towards me, but when I looked at him, I just felt fear and desperation, no pull, only repulsion. "Get in your car and go. I let you live as I said. But if you stand here for one more second, I'm not responsible for what happens to you. My beast is about to come out and pierce my chest to tear you all apart.". After hearing these words, my family bowed in front of him in submission. But my mother asked with tears in her eyes "Where will you take her?".  Aidan hmphed arrogantly as a response. Then "Why don't you asked about this to your beloved queen? I assure you she will give you an exact response."  he said. When he was done speaking, he grabbed my elbow and pulled me close again. Then he started dragging me with him. I tried to free my arm from him and run back to my family, but it was not possible. Every time I moved, he grabbed my arm a little tighter, forcing me to surrender. He didn't need to speak to make it clear, no, he made me feel it with his eyes and the serious expression on his face that my struggling was in vain. When I looked back at my family, they all bowed their heads in defeat again, breaking eye contact with me and staring at the ground. I felt nothing but despair. Even my mother succumbed. The man who made them this way is now dragging me by the elbow to another place I don't know.

My family started to walk towards the car. They were walking slowly, defeated, helpless and unhappy. I was looking at them from where I was with the same feelings. As I still don't know if this is goodbye or not, I torn between crying or not. 

When my mother, father and siblings were leaving, I suddenly realized. I was being abandoned again and had no one by my side but an intimidating man I had never known. I started sobbing then bursted into tears uncontrollably and fell onto my knees. Because I was afraid. Because my heart was broken. While crying, Aidan placed me on his shoulder and started to walk as he lifted me like a sack of s**t, I started hitting his back and biting Aidan's neck and ear to let go of my body, but in vain. Moreover he seemed to like it. f*****g insane bastard. How could someone grin and groan in pleasure as they get bitten and hit? "If you continue to do these, I won't wait for full moon, my dearest." he said and let out a dark chuckle. Once we reached to the side of the road, he placed me on ground again. Without grinning, he glare at me cold and cruel and I flinched where I stood. I don't know which is better, him grinning insanely or him glaring sanely? His eyes are beautiful, indeed.

 "Don't worry, from now on, I'll be all you need." he said. I couldn't talk back for I was terrified, but his expression was soften as he touched my face and stroked it gently. With tears still flowing down from my cheeks to the ground, I turned to the empty road and looked again. But all of a sudden, in a fit of anger, Aidan turns my face to his own and looked down at me with a furious expression, without tilting his head down. "You are not allowed to be sorry for anyone else but for me. You are not even allowed to think about someone else." he said arrogantly and annoyed. What he said made me mad. How could someone be so thoughtless and evil? My blood was boiling with anger, but my heart was in pain. I will fight him, but just not today.
