HIS POISONOUS MEDICINE

CHAPTER TWO: THE STRONG CRY

“Don’t you dare think you can take my place in this house, I will kill you if you try to rear your ugly head, ask about me anywhere!” The Lycan king's wife blasted at me, Diana was showing me around and we had met with her and her numerous escorts.

Since my arrival a few hours ago it had been from one trouble to another with her. I had told her on several occasions that I don’t want her husband. She can as well talk to him to let me go.

“You don’t have to be rude Sylvia, why don’t you go to my brother or other women and throw your tantrums there, after all my brother had warned you severally to stop threatening Lucy, she didn’t bring herself here!” Diana responded on my behalf, she had been a sweetheart since we met.

Once Diana pulled me away from the panting Sylvia, she whispered into my ears and I smiled back at her, the smile was genuine for the first time in Many days.

“Just relax and I will do as I promise, for now listen to my brother because he doesn’t like to be disobeyed or questioned, I will get you out of here, I promise” Diana reassured me and squeezed my forearm affectionately, I nodded back at her and hugged her.

“Thank you for being nice and sweet to me, I can’t remember when I last had a friend or someone to look after me like you are doing, thank you” I thanked Diana, holding her hands like we have met years before now.

That same night I was ushered into the Lycan king personal chamber, the beauty and exquisitely of the whole place wasn’t on my mind because of my thought and fear, he had ordered his eldest maid to bathe and clean me up.

“Listen to him and be a good girl, you will be fine” the woman warned me softly, before pressing the bell to his huge apartment, the guard nodded back at her greetings before she finally left me to stand alone in the sexy lingerie that she made me wear .

But all my fear was for nothing because the Lycan king only made me eat with him and asked that we have a conversation.

“You don’t have to look at me like that, if I want to have you I don’t need to sugar coat it or lie to you about it, you are mine now but I don’t want s*x tonight or any night soon, not forcefully again!, I’m SINCERELY sorry for what happened on our first meeting, you were drunk and I should have known… . "The Lycan king was talking to me calmly for the first time ever.

“But… but I liked it, I enjoyed it, all is in the past now and I will appreciate it if you can let me go” I added the last sentence hoping that he would accept my request since he’s in a good mood.

But the creasing of his forehead made me clamed my mouth shut almost immediately, he definitely didn’t want to hear me talk about leaving him or going home, there’s nothing for me back home but being with a man who has lots of women already. And a crazy wife on my heels isn’t my life goal.

“Don’t talk about leaving me Lucy, it took me days to find you, I wasn’t able to rest for days after our first encounter, I don’t know what you did to me but I feel things now, emotions that I have never felt before! I feel alive after meeting you and I need to have you around me” he confessed to me.

His eyes lightening up as he looked at me intensely and deeply, scooting closer to me, I felt relaxed and at peace with him for the first time since I met him, my wolf wanted to wrap him up in my arms and tell him everything will be okay but what he said next shook me to the bone.

“That’s why I need you to be my wife, get married to me” he spat out to me, his face void of any emotions, at first I thought he was pulling my legs then my wolf reminded me that the Lycan king never jokes around.

“Why will you want another wife when you have Sylvia?, please sir.. I don’t want to get married, we can’t.. '' I was still talking to him but trying not to get him angry even as I rejected his proposal when he cut me off.

“Listen to me Lucy, it’s a contract marriage, not real and you will be out of my life in two month time, I will pay you too and make sure you never lack, I need to make certain of somethings happening between my wife and my Beta who’s also my best friend” he blurted out.

I sighed softly and relaxed my shoulder, thinking about his proposal for a bit, it sounded good and I will get my freedom as well.

My wolf was prancing around excitedly, since we met the Lycan king she had always wanted to be around him and now the opportunity for her to do so had come to her.

“Why will your wife and best friend do anything to hurt you? It’s alright I agree with your terms but you have to keep your word sir” even as I announced my agreement to him I felt myself falling deep into his trap.

He smiled sweetly at me and shook my hand before bringing out a document for me to sign, I watched as his smiling face waned into the usual cold and emotionless expression, definitely the scary and fearful Lycan king is vulnerable with emotions too, he just know how to keep them in check

“Now you are mine … for two month and you better be warned now that none of my women have the freedom to see other men or do whatever I don’t want!” He retorted at me, his eyes angry and intense again.

Right there I felt like a fool again, for falling into his trap, he had played me by being calm and helpless and now that he got my signature, he’s back to his usual arrogant and controlling self, ordering me about and glaring at me with laser eyes.
