THE MATE BETWEEN TWO KINGS

HE REJECTED ME

LILA'S POV.

I wondered why Kelvin ran out that way after seeing blood everywhere.

Does he have a phobia for blood?

I quickly washed myself and went to bed.

As soon as I dozed off, I found myself in the dream world.

I was in the middle of a very big forest. It was very big, but I was not afraid because I came to get some air. Suddenly, there was this breeze that turned into a wind. It was carrying sand, dirt, and shaking the big trees. At this point, fear gripped me.

An old woman appeared from nowhere. Her head was pure white and her eyes had something that looked like fire.

As she began to speak, it was like the sound of many voices.

To my greatest surprise, her face changed to that of a woman I saw at the entrance of the Lycan Kingdom.

“My daughter, don't look down on yourself. You're a saviour. Look at your palms.” she paused.

.

I quickly looked at it but could not see anything.

“There's something in your palms. It can break curses. Don't joke with it .” She said and disappeared.

The wind became so intense that it almost blew me away.

A hard bang on my door woke me up to reality.

I was sweating all over my body and trembling at the same time. I've never experienced such a strange thing in my life.

I could not pay attention to who was at the door because I didn't want anybody to see me in that state, so I had to fix myself faster.

The door opened and the guard walked in. It was the same guard who dragged and showed me my room. This time he came with some food.

“Have this.” He stretched his hand towards me. My body was still shaking. I was still trying to put myself together.

As soon as I carried the food, I heard a sharp sound on the floor.

Lo, and behold, the food fell from my hand.

“What type of nonsense is this? Are you suffering from epilepsy? For this careless act, you won't eat anything till the next day at night.

The guard walked out on me angrily. Everything was just happening so fine. I pinched myself to be sure that I was not still dreaming. I wondered what could be the reason for all this.

I quickly scooped the part of that food that didn't really touch the ground so that I could have something to eat because the worms in my stomach were already dancing a choreography.

As soon as I was done, I went out of my room to the palace to carry out my duties for the day. That was all the more reason I had to put something in my stomach to have some energy.

Aurora was the brain behind this and had warned that any day I did not finish up with my work, she would skin me alive. I was literally treated like a slave, and the king supported every bit of it.

I was still going to take my equipment for cleaning when I saw someone who made my heart skip.

The woman I saw at the entrance of the Lycan Kingdom.

And the same woman who had the face of the woman who appeared in my dream last night.

I saw her seated at a corner the same way she was seated on the first day I saw her.

I stopped so that I could greet her, but I quickly changed my mind because if I am caught and reported to the king or Aurora, I'll have them to contend with.

One of the instructions they gave me was never to have any conversation with anybody in the palace till I leave the palace.

I tried to get her attention by waving but she was lost in thought.

The chores of this day were so much. I had to work under the sun as instructed by Aurora, and nobody cared whether I had taken something or not.

When I retired from the day, it was already 7pm.

I was so exhausted that I could barely move. I managed and started walking down to my room.

I had to pass the general kitchen before getting to my room. I observed that the kitchen was open and there were remnants of food on the floor that had chicken and veggies on them.

Seeing this, I was already salivating. I turned to my right to be sure nobody was seeing me. Turning to my left, I didn't see anybody. I quickly ran in, packed the food on my dirty cloth. As I wanted to leave, I started hearing footsteps and voices. I knew it might be the cook and the other housemaid.

I ran quickly. I didn't turn till I got to my room. I devoured the food, had my bath, and was about to call it a day when my door creaked open again.

Again.

Kelvin.

As soon as I saw him, I knew the reason he was here.

Immediately, my wolf started whimpering and screaming Mate!!!

Mate!!!

My bones were as though they were literally breaking.

“You know why I am here. Lie down and this time ensure you open your legs well.” He commanded.

At once tears started streaming down my face. s*x is what is meant to be enjoyed between a married man and woman, but I was not enjoying mine. Everything was painful. I deserve to be treated like a woman, romanced, touched, not just as though I am a refuse dump that whenever he wants to ease off, I open my legs, and he eases himself off.

He entered me as usual, and as soon as he ejaculated, he came down as though nothing had happened.

Before he left, he looked at me in a very unpleasant way. My wolf had not kept quiet for a moment.

And then he growled

“I, Kelvin Lykos reject you as my mate. Got means nothing to me but a tool for me to get a heir after which you'll be discarded.”

He said, turned, and left, slamming the door.

I threw myself on the floor and cried without control. I kept rolling on the floor crying till tears were no longer coming.. I just lay on the floor staring at the ceiling when a hand touched me. I turned to see it was but didn't see anybody.

I flinched.

I could not fathom why strange things have been happening to me ever since I entered the Lycan Kingdom. I ran outside, afraid that it might be a ghost. I sat outside looking straight into the room when the same hand touched me again. I screamed and ran inside.

Fear gripped me as it had never done before.

Could this really be a ghost?
