CHRONICLES OF THE REJECTED LUNA

CHAPTER 4: UNDRESS!

Amaris POV

I was too shocked to accept what I just learned as I looked at the perfectly built man in front of me, and I was surprised at how flawless someone could be.

I looked at the man in front of me and my breath seized by just plainly staring into his eyes.

He is a pretty man with definite features, with his blazing gray eyes that could melt souls, his brown hair, and his taunting height that makes me conscious of my height.

But how can this person be my mate? I wondered, and I shook my head, knowing that I might have heard wrong.

'Mate! He is our mate!' My wolf, Kayley, beamed this time, rather louder than earlier, and it was like it was warning me to act properly if I did not want to risk shifting.

But if he is here right now, that means he was the one I was waiting to receive…the Lycan devil himself. Lycan King Magnus Orion is my mate!

“You!” The Lycan King says, grabbing my neck and disrupting my thoughts and my eyes brimmed with tears as he tightened his grip around my neck.

I knew that I was not fit for his Luna, that was the reason he was acting out, but I was determined to make him see it.

“Are you that angry that I am your mate? But the moon goddess can't be wrong, right?” I asked with much difficulty because his hands were tightly wrapped around my neck, and I was having difficulty speaking.

But that's too bad for him… I will not be stomped over by him.

“You are my mate? Is this a joke?” I heard the deep baritone voice breathed out and my eyes brimmed with tears knowing what was going to come next. I knew he was going to reject me.

“The moon g…." I was saying, but he grabbed my neck.

“I do not care what you think, but I want you gone from this place… I do not need a weakling like you,” he says, and he let go of me roughly.

“No, I am not going to leave!” I said with my eyes full of determination, and the man was surprised at the fury.

“What!” He asked rather irritatedly and I met his gaze boldly.

“Do you want to die?” I heard his deep baritone voice ask again, and I raised my head slowly to look at him.

“Yes, you heard me right, I am not going to leave, I am going to stay by your side and grow stronger!” I bellowed, and the man grabbed me by the neck once again, and he whispered dangerously to my ear.

“You don't know what you are getting yourself into, lady, I'm a devil…a devil you wished not to cross paths with,” he says and Bianca gulps her saliva in fear.

“If that is right, then I do not mind dining with the devil… I have nothing to lose in the first place,” I say, my mind made up… I was going to do everything to stay alive and become stronger, even if that meant dining with the devil.

The Lycan king let go of my neck hurriedly, and he walked away from the place, leaving me to dwell on my fate. I slumped on the floor and I started thinking about my life.

I knew that it was going to be difficult for me to walk my way into the Lycan King's heart, but I was going to try my best. I could feel my wolf's mood down, and I pitied her seeing that she was going to face another rejection, but I was determined to make that not happen.

“The King says we should take you out!” A voice interrupted my thoughts, and before I knew it, I was taken to a room. I got freshened up, changed into other clothes, and I was already on my way to meet the Lycan king.

“Good evening, my King!” I greeted him immediately. I entered his chamber and he raised his head to look at me and his feverish eyes roamed my body like I was a prey of his, which made me cautious of him.

He looked dangerous just as the rumor predicted, and I was not going to take chances.

“Even if you are a weakling, I still think you can pass for a beauty pageant…but that's it,” he says with a chuckle that I found unsettling but oddly his compliment soothes me too, maybe because he was my mate and the bond between us was causing the attraction.

“Thanks for giving..." I was about to say, but his next words caught me off guard.

“Undress!” I heard his husky voice vibrate, and my eyes widened in surprise at his words.

“What? Why are you asking me that?” I asked, and he smirked walking towards me that I did not have a choice but to move back in fear.

“What…are you doing?” I asked, my voice was shaky, and before I could say another word the Lycan slammed me to his body and I stiffened at our contact.

“You say you are going to do anything I ask you to do…and I am telling you to undress, are you not going to do it?” He asked for his hands around my back, and I was already having problems with his hands' placement.

'Why is he acting like this?' I wondered if my wolf was having a blast as she could be closer to her mate, and I was scared that I might do something wrong and pounce on the man.

“If I undress now, are you going to let me stay?” I asked with a clear face and he nodded his head.

“Sure, you can take my word as it is,” he says with an amused voice and without thinking more my hands went to my zipper ready to undress because I needed to stay alive, but a voice came from behind me and I hissed in frustration.

“What's going on here?” I heard a feminine voice ask and that stopped my actions as I turned slowly to look who it was. “Who is the crazy girl that wants to seduce the Alpha!” the girl roared, and my eyes twitched.

Was that jealousy I sensed?
