FULL NOVELXO The Lycan’s Rejected Mate: His Lycan Luna: Chapter 56
Anaiah’s POV
‘Well, Alpha Erickson, what is it going to be?’ Asked Clara, it was obvious that she despised him as she spoke with venom. Erickson’s gaze wandered to her and then to Mike, his eyes flashed with rage and his fist clutched. I sighed, knowing that it was a losing war. I’ve failed, failed those women I promised to help. Failed the mothers, sisters, aunties, and daughters like me. I didn’t look
‘We are waiting,’
‘Well, I do believe in empowering women, that is why I vote in favor of the Queen’s motion,’ I looked up, my lips stretching into a smile and my mate announces.
‘Done, women will be given their birthright and have a sit on the council,’
claps resounded while others grimace. I was relieved, I felt tears in my eyes.
I was so happy and we stay to celebrate… I kiss my mate and he praises me for a job well done.
I was interacting with the ladies who were euphoric about the positive news and soon, I left the room for some fresh air where I found Betty and Jamal getting a little naughty, seeing me, they bowed and left.
‘Don’t I get a thank you of a sort?’ A voice says. I’m reluctant to turn around.
‘Thank you for doing the right thing, Alpha Erickson,’ I move passed him and he bows, watching me leave he says;
‘You’re welcome,’
It was an evening of surprise, I stopped in my tracks when I saw the mate who rejected me, standing a few feet from me. Amos was smiling like a creep. Erickson too didn’t leave.
‘Alpha Amos, what are you doing here?’ I ask, sternly.
‘I am here for a meeting, and I thought I should congratulate you on the new law, Queen Anaiah,’ He replies, I nod and we stared at each other for a long time, Alpha Amos had changed not only in appearance but his aura, there was something dark about it and I didn’t like it one bit.
My brother and mate strode outside, worriedly. A few Alphas also came.
‘What’s wrong,’
‘Packs are been attacked by Werebears and rogues, there was an attack at our borders and the Eastern packs,’ My brother informs me, taking off his jacket and shifting into his huge white wolf. It left the others gasping in awe at the magnificent wolf that takes off in the direction of his pack.
‘An attack by Werebears and Rogues?’ I murmur. Werebears are part of the shifter community however, they isolate themselves in the deepest part of the world and we don’t even keep in contact, their leader wants nothing to do with other shifters and lives in harmony, so what changed?
‘Everyone call unto your warriors to protect your borders and no matter what, the attackers mustn’t reach the packs,’ Orders Leondre. The Alphas did that and hastily left, others changing their forms.
‘Go back to the castle, I’ll find you,’
I am shocked when those words leave my mate’s lips, he knows me well enough by now. I won’t stay while he fights. I grab his arm, stopping him from leaving.
‘I’m going with you, Leon,’
‘Don’t fight me on this one, Ana… I’ve already mind-linked Jake to take you home,’
My bodyguard appears and bows to the king.
‘Take her home and make sure she doesn’t leave!’ He orders, placing a kiss on my lips before he shifts into his dark mighty Lycan that towers over everyone here. With one last growl, he takes off in the Eastern direction. Everyone has dispersed and I’m left with Erickson and Amos, the two men were talking and I frown in confusion
‘Do you know each other?’
As long as I can remember, Alpha Amos had nothing to do with the North pack, so why were they talking seriously now?
‘Just business,’
‘Aren’t the packs been attacked? you should be helping,’ I raise a questioning eyebrow.
‘That’s Lycan’s business,’ Shrugs Amos, selfish weasel as always, he tries to stay away from the fighting. I roll my eyes and turn to Alpha Erickson,
‘My pack and my allies are safe so, I don’t have to do anything,’ He says.
‘We should go, Luna,’ Says Jake, I nod and start walking but stop.
‘Oh, can you get my bag real quick?’
He nods and opens the car door for me. As soon as he goes out of my sight, I leave the car. I’m a Queen for fucks sake and I need to help out however way I can even if it means disobeying my mate. As I turn to leave, Erickson grabs my arm and I growl at him.
‘Let me go,’
‘Your mate said to go home,’
‘Since when do you give a shit about what Leon says?’ He looks taken back and releases his grip on me.
‘I’ll come with you,’ I just nod and we shift into our form and head to my brother’s pack.
We were at the border in ten minutes. The warriors were fighting several rogues. I immediately jump into action and tackle the nearest rogue next to me. Enrique’s warriors are strong and destroy every rogue. Erickson is killing them off and also keeping an eye on me.
‘Don’t let them get into the border!’ Enrique announced via mind link. My fangs dig into a rogue that was attacking a young warrior close by. Soon, the numbers depleted but more came in, this time with a few Werebears.
I hiss when a Werebear attacks me and two rogues bite my legs furiously. I fight back but they are not releasing me.
I howl when the huge Werebear claws my side, before I can turn to fight back, a huge Lycan flies over me, tearing the bear away from me and killing it. Jake.
