Reborn Mate To The Lycan King

CHAPTER 3

One-night stand

Awake, naked, on a soft bed that wasn't mine around past seven AM, I sat down and leaned my head on the wall. I had no memory of what happened the previous night all I knew was that I was weakened inside of me.

The last time I checked, I was taking shots of tequila liquor with Harper and Beta Alexander in a barroom. Where are they? Where am I? I was confused because I could not find either of them. Horror encompassing me at the moment contrasted fiercely with my nakedness. I couldn't risk thinking about what could have happened, but the blood stains on my hand as I brought my hand out of my lap affirmed the mischievousness.

I breathed relentlessly on the bed as tears dropped from my face. It seemed I had been touched. I have been roughly handled. I have been marked on my neck. I never knew Harper could do such a thing to me. A girl I trusted so much, betrayed me by selling me out to a stranger.

I took courage, I stood up from the bed and started wearing my mini skirt when four boys in royal attires walked majestically into the room. I quickly covered my breasts with the bedsheet that had been stained with blood.

“ Who are you guys? What am I doing here?" I asked them and creased my forehead in perplexity.

They folded their arms around their body and bowed their heads as if I were invisible to them. Mine first turned Into a ball and I slammed it on the wooden box beside the bed.

“ Talk to me!" I screamed aggressively at them yet they remained silent.

Bold footsteps behind the door drew my attention. It counted like one step per minute before the owner of the leg came into view. I scanned the man from his leg up to his chiselled broad chest as he stood by the door to see a pair of bluish icy eyes. In my rage, my heart twinged as my past haunted me with a twinkle of an eye.

He was Alpha, Caleb. He was my fated mate in my first life who strangled me to death in the woods. He was the betrayal, the reason I hate men. He looked straight into my eyes with a vicious blank look, while I looked into his eyes with ravaging eyes starving for revenge. Moreover, he could not identify me anymore because my face had changed from my past look. Only me and I alone know who I am.

What was he doing here? If there was anything I hated the most on earth, it would be Alpha Caleb. I preferred to taste death than to see the betrayal of who chose my best friend over me in my first life.

He moved closer to the bed and dropped a parcel of money on the bed. “ It is yours, pretty girl" Alpha Caleb pronounced confidently.

“ What for? Did I beg you for money?" I screamed at him.

“ It's for the night we spent together!" Alpha, Caleb pronounced confidently again.

I took the parcel and threw it on his face angrily, not minding the royal identities on his body. “ How dare you mark me?"

He furrowed his brows and smirked. “ I own you" He spoke with laughter.

Beta Alexander walked inside the room and leaned over to a metallic stand. He looked at me innocently as I shed tears on the bed. The more I remembered my past life the more I got infiltrated with his hatred.

“ Nice work, Beta Alexander!" Alpha Caleb turned to Beta Alexander and applauded him.

“ Yes, my lord" Beta Alexander bowed to say.

Alpha Caleb moved closer to my bed and whispered in my ears," Hey, darling. You are free to come over to the palace and enjoy the rest of your life. I have put my complimentary card into your brown purse so that you can get in contact with me anytime, even if it is today"

They all went outside and left me on the bed in sorrow. I regretted having Harper as my friend. I was more than stupid for having a friend again after all, Jessie did to me in my first life. If I hadn't learned my lessons before now I have.

I walked into the bathroom for a quick shower and wore my dress. I slipped my legs into my heels and walked out of the room without minding the mirror by the side.

I took a taxi to our rented apartment and found it locked everywhere. I screamed Harper's name but all my efforts were dashed Into thin mints. I stood right in front of our door for some minutes before my eyes rolled on the paper at the door.

It was a letter written by Harper to me. She had left the country this morning, and she had sold the house to another person. She had kept my items of luggage by one corner of the house, which I later discovered after petrified minutes.

I fell on my knees in disdain at the front of my door and wept for what seemed like hours but were just minutes before I was taught what I could do. Alpha Caleb just said some minutes ago that I should come to his palace to leave with him. It sounded so crazy, but I think I would take it as an advantage to avenge my death. Plus the fact that I was now homeless like I was ten years ago. I needed a place to hide my head, so I think I had to go to his palace and give him the greatest regret of his life in disguise.

Alpha Caleb betrayed me in my first life, he killed me in the woods and also dared to break my virginity without my conscience in my second life simply because he was an Alpha. He threw some parcels of money to my face as if I were a poor beggar. Not only that, he asked me to come to his palace, or I would suffer forever. I guessed that Harper's actions were triggered by the evil man who called himself Alpha Caleb.

I dipped my hand Into my purse and brought out his complimentary card. I wiped the tears away from my face and stopped the taxi going towards the pack. It was just a few meters away from this city, and it was getting dawn, so I entered and rode to the pack.
