THE LYCAN KING'S REJECT

KINGS CASTLE - lily’s pov

I turned the silver necklace over in my hand, still amazed at the fact that Lorenzo, a king, my king, lived in a cave. Though it was a nice cave, compared to the nice place we just came from, this place was crap. How could someone with more money than Queen Elizabeth live here willingly? 

Flipping the necklace around I see the name ‘ABBY’ engraved in the back. With a heart!!

Who the hell was Abby?

“Who the f**k is Abby?” That came out a little too possessive. I wasn’t jealous. No, not at all. I had no reason to be, I was just concerned. Yea that's it, just concerned. I cleared my throat to rephrase. “I mean, is she a friend?” I said more softly and less aggressively.

“Princess?” 

“Hmm?” Enzo moved closer to me and took the necklace from my hands and into his pants pocket. He lifted my head with his hand since I was still staring at the space where the necklace was, he took both of my hands in his and looked at me with a smirk on his face. 

“There is absolutely no reason for you to be jealous of her. You are the only one I want and need.”

“Is she a friend?” 

“She’s a little bit more than a friend, she’s my -” I pulled my hands away from him and turned around. I didn’t want to hear what they were. Was he going to say girlfriend? Maybe his wife? There was no way someone like him stayed single when he looked like that. 

I was about to walk out so we could leave but Lorenzo grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his rock hard chest. “ Don’t you turn away from me, princess.” he said looking hotter than ever. “Her name is Abigail Savage. She’s my little sister. Though I must say you look cute when you’re jealous.” He leaned down to whisper in my ear. “I rather like your possessiveness towards me.”

“I was not jealous, just curious.” I said trying to hide my flaming cheeks. 

“You look beautiful when you blush.” he was smiling his billion dollar smile. “Have you gotten everything you’ll be needing, love?”

“Yes I didn’t really bring much with me.” I said pulling out a pair of dark brown contacts from a pocket on the side of my bag. I didn't know if we were headed back to his place or not but I didn't want to take any chances with anyone staring at me. Lorenzo gave me a look that showed he didn't like the fact that I wore contacts, but I still put them on.

¨You don't have to wear those.¨ he said as I popped in my contacts.

¨Yes I know but I want to.¨

“Fine then let's go.” He held out his hand for me to take, which I did, and he led us out of the nice cave. After a walk through the woods we were back at the too big white car. He opened the passenger door for me and let me get in. 

Well I tried to anyway. I was barely 5’2 and it was still hard for me to get in there. He did as I asked and didn’t help me. Which was why we were still there after 5 minutes with me exhausted and my arms tired of trying to pull me into the car. I heard Lorenzo sigh behind me.

“Can I help you now?” He asked with me still dangling off the edge of the seat very much embarrassed.

“Yes.” I sighed in defeat. He put his hands on my hips and lifted me up into the seat with such ease. “I hate this car now.” he chuckled and shook his head.

“I think this might be my new favorite.” 

“Can we go now?” 

“Whatever the princess wants.” and he closed my door and went to get in through his side. Once he was seated in the driver's seat he started the car and we took off. 

“Are we going back to your place?” I asked him.

“Sort of.”

“What do you mean ’sort of ’? Are we going to your house or not?”

“We are going to our home.” he replied calmly. Our??

“What are you talking about?”

“I’ve been called back, there was an emergency that calls for my attention.”

Called back? Does he mean to the palace?

“You mean we’re going to the royal castle? The lycan kings and queens home? That’s where you’re taking me?”

“That is exactly where I’m taking you.”

“Oh okay then.” 

To say I was nervous would be an understatement. Would the former king and queen like me? Would they think I’m not fit to be with their son? What if I used the wrong fork and they cut my hands off. I needed my hand. I was subconsciously rubbing my wrist when I felt Enzo’s hot hand moved to my upper thigh. 

“You have nothing to worry about, princess. I’ll be with you every step of the way.” 

I let out a small sigh as a little bit of my nerves melted away. We were driving for about an hour when I looked at the clock above the radio, that read 4:29, and I started to get sleepy. I laid my head against the window and closed my eyes. I let the soft sounds of the radio and the vibrations of the car going over rocks. Lull me to sleep. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Baby girl, wake up.” 

I groan at the deep voice interrupting my peaceful sleep. “5 more minutes dad.”

“I’m not your dad,but I wouldn't mind being your daddy.” my eyes flew open when he tucked and stray hair behind my ear and rubbed my cheek. I didn't even realize I was leaning into his touch till he pulled his hand back. ¨Baby weŕe here.¨ My eyes widened and I turned to look out the window,but nothing could have prepared me for the beauty that stood tall and proud in front of me.

We were still driving up the long driveway when I saw the biggest (and only) castle I had ever seen.The castle walls seemed to stretch on forever, with the white bricks in a goldish outline and dark blue roofing. I almost found myself almost excited to go in, with the beautiful water fountain that was in the middle, and the colorful,and well maintained, flowers,bushes,and trees on both sides of the castle. As we got closer I could see that there were lots of guards posted all around the area. I counted 18 near the front doors but there were so much more ,maybe even more of them. The castle looked so ancient but not in a dirty way. It was more like  the designs were ancient.

¨Gosh Lorenzo, this place looks so beautiful.¨  I told him, still looking out the window as the car came to a stop. I didn even know he got out of the car till he popped up at my window. He opened my door and held out his hand for me to take. When my hand is in his he pulls me out of the car and into his arms. We stood like that for a moment, with him holding me, till a man's voice interrupted us. 

¨Your highness, welcome home.¨ An older man with black hair and streaks of grey said to us. He had his head bowed low showing respect to his alpha and his king. I could tell by the aura he gave off that, he too, was a lycan. 

¨Marious, it's good to see you again¨ he gave the man, Marious, a pat on his shoulder signaling him to rise up. He looked over at me with this weird look, like confusion and dislike.

¨And who is this young-¨ he sniffed at me. ¨wolf?¨

¨This beautiful woman is your soon-to-be queen.¨ Lorenzo answered looking down at me with a smile. ¨I like for us to go in now, it's cold out here.¨ he handed Marious, who still looked shocked to hear I was to be queen, I mean so was I, the car key and placed his hand on my lower back and led us inside. He was right, it was freezing. I never produced the same body heat as normal wolves did, now I know why. I guess the heat of the fairies and the body heat of the wolf in me, counteracted leaving me cold all the time. 

The closer we got to the front doors the smaller I felt and the bigger the castle got. As we passed up the guards/warriors of the castle, they bowed to us. I did not like this one bit. It felt weird. After what felt like a too long walk out the castle stairs we reached the huge front double doors. The two guards at the door pushed the doors open for us after a quick respectful greeting. I thought the outside of the castle was gorgeous but that was nothing compared to the inside. 

The inside was way more modern looking than the outside but just as beautiful. The first thing that came to mind when I first seen the inside was´ thatś a lot of stairs´. I counted four staircases in the front area. Two of the staircases led to one larger staircase down the middle of the entrance. The steps to the stairs were a dark red velvet color, and the railing to the stairs was black with glass stick like things in between the bottom and top railing. Right in the middle above the stairs was the biggest diamond chandelier hanging from the ceiling. The floors were white marble and squeaky clean. I looked up to see that there were only two floors in the front. I assume there were more floors because the first floor would have to be for everyone, like if they were to have guests, they could roam the floors. The staff would be on another floor with guest rooms, and then the royals on the floor above them. Or at least thatś what makes sense in a place like this. I could totally be wrong. The whole entire place seemed to be sparkling. It was all hypnotising. 

I felt Lorenzo wrap his arms around my waist as he placed his head on my shoulder. ¨What do you think?¨ he murmured against my neck, making me shiver. 

¨You have a very beautiful home my king¨ i giggled and turned around in his arms. He moves so he is now looking down at me and my body is pressed against his. 

¨OUR home, princess, because whatś mine is yours.¨ He kisses the top of my head making me blush like a crazy woman. 

¨Well my king can you take me to our bedroom.¨ I said to him, smiling. 

¨Oh so you just assume I want to share a room with you.¨

¨Okay then so me to my bedroom. Iḿ okay with sleeping without you. Maybe I can find someone else to warm my bed at night.¨ I smirk at him. 

He growls, pressing me further into his body if that was even possible. 

¨You are mine and mine alone. No one is touching my baby girl. Now let's get to our bedroom.¨

¨Thought so.¨ I whispered under my breath, as he pulled me towards the thousands of stairs towards the middle entrance. 

¨ Where is our bedroom?¨ I asked as we ascended the stairs. 

¨We are on the 5th floor¨

¨The 5th!! That's too many stairs Enzo.¨ I was already getting winded and we were only at the second floor. I heard Lorenzo chuckle next to me. He turns to me as we reach the top of the stairs and sweeps me off my feet. Heś carrying me bridal style, with one arm under my knees and the other around my back. ¨You know I can walk right?¨ 

¨But you don't have to when I'm here.¨ I smiled, laying my head against his chest and one arm around his neck to play with his hair. 

¨You said you were on the 5th floor, what are we doing on the second?¨

¨You´ll see.¨ 

He walked us down a hall to the left of the stairs and when we reached the end he turned right. He stopped moving so I stopped what I was doing and pick my head up. We stood in front of two gray doors. Lorenzo pushed a blue button that wa son the wall next to the doors. There was a ´ding´ then an elevator was revealed. I didn't really like elevators because they made me nauseous, but it was better than walking 5 long flights of stairs. 

With me still in his arms he walked us into the elevator, turned around, and pushed the glowing blue button with a cursive ´K´ on it. I felt the elevator move and instantly I felt sick. I turned my head so it was buried in Lorenzoś neck.I took a deep inhale of his strawberry-vanilla scent and it made me feel so much better.

¨Baby girl are you okay?¨ He placed his hand to my head and started stroking my hair.

¨Yeah I´m fine.¨ 

¨Do you not like being in here?¨ I hesitated before I answered.

¨Kinda, it just makes me sick sometimes, but I swear Iḿ fine.¨ I went back to playing with his hair, my head still in his neck. 

¨Princess, you should have told me. I have no problem carrying you up those stairs.¨ 

¨Next time.¨ I said as the doors opened to his floor. I knew this was his floor because there was a faint smell of strawberry and vanilla. ¨So do the rest of the royals stay on this floor too.¨

¨No, they stay on the floor below us. This floor is just for the king and his queen.¨ He said kissing the top of my head. He set me down to my feet and took my hand in his. He led me to the second door on the right once you step out of the elevator. ¨This is our bedroom.¨ He said with his hand on the door handle. He twisted the handle and slowly pushed the door open. ¨I had a few things changed when I first found you.¨ 

I took two steps into the room and I was completely amazed. This was beautiful. The bedroom was mainly black with some white and splashes of royal blue. In the middle of the room was a massive bed. A bed fit for a king. His bedroom was basically the size of my house back home. The bed had a black frame and black silk looking pillows pushed up against the dark grey walls of the bedroom. The comforter was white with blue and black designs. The floor was white with the exception of the black fur rug at the foot of the bed. There was a fireplace across from the bed with a TV above it. The tv had to have been over 75 inches. Around the fireplace were black bricks with a white outline. There was a large couch a few feet from the bed across from the tv. The couch was black with royal blue lining.  When you look up, where the ceiling meets the walls, there was blue light that made the room that much better. There were two small bedside tables on each side of the bed. On one end of the room there was a huge black door. Since it was left slightly open I could tell it was a bathroom. Which meant that the larger doors on the other side of the room had to be the closet doors.

 I walked to the bathroom and looked inside and it had the same color scheme as the bedroom. The walls were black tile and so was the outside of the bathtub and the shower. There were white lights on the wall near the shower and tub, but blue lights on the underside on the sink. And across from the tub was another, but much smaller, tv that had blue lights behind it. The tub had a ´C ´ shaped thing coming out the edge of it, which is where I think the water comes out of. The tub was basically a small swimming pool.  

The shower water didn't come out of the wall like most showers. This one had water that looked like it came out of the top. There was a rectangular shape in the ceiling with four white lights in each corner. There were four knobs on the wall in the shower next to a panel looking thing. The ceiling was white and the floor a light gray which pulled the whole thing together. 

Next I went to the closet and opened the doors. It was a huge walk-in closet that had a large circular grey couch in the middle of it. By the looks of it Lorenzoś clothes hung on one side and what I am going to assume is my clothes, hung on the other side. The closet was over stuffed with clothes but it was still spacey. There was a pull out drawer full of watches, necklaces, and a bunch of other fancy jewelry. There were rows and rows of shoes at the bottom of all the clothes. There were heels, sandals, slippers, tenni shoes, and mens loafers. The draws were full of draws and underwear, and they looked to be made from the finest material. 

This was all too much. I walked out of the closet and found Lorenzo sitting on the bed waiting for me. 

¨Lorenzo, you didn't have to buy all that stuff for me, you know that right. That is more clothes than I can even wear.¨ I said to him, still standing at the closet door. 

¨You deserve everything you could ever want and more. I will continue to shower you with everything I think you may need.¨ he said smiling at me. Goddess I truly loved his smile. 

I ran over to him and swung my arms around his neck and straddled his lap. I brought my lips down to his and kissed him like my life depended on it. He was shocked at first because he didn't move, but when he did he let me know that he meant everything he had just said. He laid us on the bed so I was under his as he trailed his kissed down my jaw to my neck. 

¨I love this spot,¨ He whispered, dragging his finger over a sensitive spot on my neck then sucking.¨because right here is where you'll wear my mark. And when I suck it you make that beautiful noise.¨ He sucked it again and, on que, I moaned in response. 

¨And as much as I would love for us to continue this,¨ He lifts his head and places a feather light kiss on my lips.¨I have to go take care of a few things, but Iĺl be back in maybe an hour or two.¨ He gets up off of me and instantly I miss his warmth. ¨You can go around all over this floor, but I beg of you please don't leave it. I don't want you to get lost or some else cause any problems for you. And I would also like to be the one to show you around.¨ he goes to the closet to get dressed and when he comes out he leaves me speechless. 

He wore a black slim fit long sleeve button up dress shirt with gold embroidery design, and matching dress pants that showed off his amazing ass. He was fixing his cuffs when he stopped and came over to me and placed a kiss on my lips.

¨I have to go but iĺl be back soon.¨ he said zooming out of the room before I could even respond.

¨See you soon I guess.¨ 

Then I laid back down on the bed and waited. This is going to be a very long two hours.
