The Lycan kings hybrid mate

Chapter five

Amelia:

The walk up to the sultans room seems to take forever. Their are so many corridors and many turns we must take. Guards stand at almost every corner. A few nod as we walk past but most just stand completely still. The palace seems to be completely made up on stone and the walls are lined with wooden torches. This place would be such a b***h to clean. Jeff puts his arm out in front of me and I stop. We’ve arrived at a wooden door with 2 guards standing out front blocking the door way.

“I will let him know we are here”. I nervously nod. The guards open the door and Jeff enters. I hear him loudly announce that I am waiting just outside. My heart beats loudly in my chest. After what feels like an eternity of silence Jeff exits the room.

“You may enter”. He gesters his hands towards the door. As I enter I keep my eyes to the floor as not to meet the sultans gaze. As his feet come into view I stop and take a bow.

“Sultan”. I try to say as calmly as possible. My whole body is shaking. Two soft fingers touch my chin and I feel my head being lifted up. I slowly stand and as I do my eyes meet the sultans strong gaze. My throat closes up as I swallow the nerves and get up the courage to speak.

“ You asked for me?”. My voice comes out only as a whisper.

Jaxson:

I thought she was beautiful before but right now standing before me she looks like a goddess. Her ivory skin looks soft against the harsh red of the dress. Her hair hangs loose in wild curls against her face. Just looking at her makes me hard. Her head hangs low as she bows.

“Sultan” she says softly. I can sense how nervous she is. I reach out for her placing two fingers under her chin. As soon as I do a warm feeling passes through me. Starting at my finger tips the warmth travels through my body making its way to my heart. Then a sudden feeling of love fills every inch of me.

Mate. My wolf whispers. Could this be real? Do I really have a destined mate? What would my mother say? She’s going to be furious.

Our eyes meet and in my heart I know I want her and only her.

“You asked for me?”. She whispers.

“Yes”. I say firmly pulling my hand away from her face. I brought her here to lie with her but now I’m not sure. I mean it’s not that I don’t want to lie with her. I want to so bad but I also feel the need to just talk to her. Get to know her. I’ve never wanted this from any of the girls before. Even Alana.

That’s because she’s mate.

How is it that we have a destined mate though? It’s very unheard of and a king hasn’t been blessed with a destined mate for many centuries?

Don’t ask questions. Just feel grateful. I feel my wolf smiling. In a way I am greatful. I can’t say I didn’t like laying with many women, I mean what man wouldn’t? but at times I also hated it. I can’t walk into a room without the girls whispering and fighting over who I might choose next. I pretend not to hear them as to not make a scene. That’s why most of the time I just pick Alana. I like her body and she’s makes for a good f**k but her personality sucks. It’s like talking to a brick wall. A few years ago when she got pregnant with my child, My mother mdeemed her my favourite and a sultana. Unfortunately the child died in child birth. As you can expect she went through a lot of grieving. Mother refused to take her Sultana title away even though the child passed away due to the fact she had given birth. He was a little boy to. He would have been the next sultan. In the end I agreed and let her keep her title but it’s made her very up herself. At first I thought it was the grieve but over time I’ve come to realise it’s just her. She’s nice to everyone when I’m around but I’ve heard talk about how she’s been miss treating the girls in her service. I even caught one of them crying to another girl in the hallway about how the sultana hit her. I tried to talk to her about it but she denies it. And without seeing it for myself theirs not much I can do as I’m meant to believe her over others due to the fact she’s a sultana. It’s the law. A stupid law, but never the less the law.

“I did bring you here to lie with you…” Her cheeks go red at my words. “But I think I might like to get to know you instead”. I smile.

“Jeff!” I scream.

“Yes sir?”. He enters with his head bowed.

“Can you please get us some dessert?”. He raises an eye brow at me but nods and leaves.

“Come sit”. I say to my guest. She follows me over to my cushions and we both take a seat around the table. “So tell me about yourself”. I ask.

“What would you like to know?”. She smiles.

Amelia:

When he said he wanted to lie with me I could feel the redness in my cheeks. Apart of me was excited but most of me was very nervous. The fact I was partly excited made me more nervous. I was excited to sleep with a man Ive only just meet? Yes he is very handsome but come on Amelia snap out of it. When he said he wanted to get to know me I felt mostly relieved but alittle disappointed. Is their something wrong with me? Is that why he doesn’t want to sleep with me? Maybe I’m not pretty enough.

My god Amelia. Pull yourself together. You’ve only just meet the man. For some reason being around the sultan is giving me fixed feelings.

He leads me over to some cushions and we take a seat.

“ Tell me about yourself”. He asks.

“What do you want to know”. I smile.

“How about your family?”. He smiles.

“Oh” I say nervously. “Well my mother died when I was young and to be honest I didn’t spend much time with my father he was always busy”. His frowns.

“I’m sorry I asked”. I shrug.

“It’s fine. How about your family?”. I ask.

“Well I have two sisters. You might have seen one of them sitting next to my mother at dinner. Her name is Kia. Then I have another sister that lives with her husband in another palace on the other side of Russia. Her name is Mira. Then my mother Gail and my father king Jaxson the first died about a year ago. I guess he was the same as your father. Didn’t see him often as he never spent much time with us. Always off fighting in some war”.

“I’m sorry to hear”. Jeff enters placing two bowls in front of us.

“Enjoy”. He says as he turns to exit.

Jaxson and I sat for what felt like ages just talking. He really doesn’t seem as scary as people make him out to be. Actually his kind of nice. The more he talks the more I feel like I’ve known him forever. He looks up at the clock.

“Oh it’s that late already. You have classes tomorrow so we better get you back”. I nod. As I go to stand my vision becomes blurry and the world seems to be spinning a lot faster then normal. The sultan grabs me as I’m about to fall forward.

“Are you ok?”. He asks concerned.

“Everything’s just a little dizzy. I’m sure I’ll be fine”. I steady myself and lightly push his arms away. As I go to step forward I scream out in pain. My whole body now feels like it’s on fire. The sultan puts his palm against my forehead.

“Your burning up”. He says.

“I’m fine really”. I whisper.

“Your not. Here lay down”. He holds my hand and guides me to his bed. “Jeff!”. He screams. Before Jeff enters the room fully he screams at him again. “Go get the doctor”. Jeff looks down at me and rushes off. I let out another scream as pain ripples through my body. It almost feels as if my bones are breaking.

“It’s ok. Your going to be ok”. The sultan whispers in my ear as he strokes my hair. Then everything stops and the room goes black.
