The lycan’s rejected mate

Chapter 4

Unknown Pov

I didn't want to come to this poor excuse of a pack but it was my duty as a lycan king to attend, so I did anywhere. The moonrise pack isn't the strongest or wealthiest but they are doing well for themselves and have survived this far because of their alliances, however, the alpha and luna are not the most intelligent of the pack but oh well, at least they are leading to their best of their abilities.

Once the celebration begins, they announce that they will pass down the alpha title to their son, Owen. I know Owen, he's a strong wolf and might even be more capable to lead than his parents.

Owen walks on stage with a she-wolf by his side, she has a huge smile plastered on her face and I assume, she's his luna. The outgoing alpha briefly gives a speech, he acknowledges my presence and people applaud. Owen is then called on stage and says his vows

" I Owen Rivers will lead this pack fair and to the best of my abilities," He continues and together they join their hands and the transfer of power is complete. We applaud him and the crowd cheers for their new alpha. Everyone is dancing and clapping.

"Can we go already?" Asks my beta, Danford. He also didn't want to come.

" Not yet, we are leaving tomorow, for now, just go and entertain yourself," I shrug, getting a glass of champagne from one of the severs. Danford scowls like a child but it immediately goes away when he sees five girls batting their lashes and giggling at us, he grins and looks at me

"I think we should stick around you know as in we can't leave these pretty ladies in dire need of our company," Hr says, winking at the ladies who blush profusely but I only turn away, Danford is the biggest player in the world, despite being twenty four like me, he also hasn't found his mate and has made it his life's goal to whore around until he finds her, but I on the other hand, I do have women to gratify my sexual desires but only two or three and there are no feelings attached whatsoever, I can only get attached to my mate and Luna, the woman who I will love and the mother of my heirs. I leave my beta with his whores and interact with other prominent alphas, they ask about the lycan pack and all but I'm beginning to get bored and my lycan is getting agitated by every minute that passes.

'Mate,' Saga growls in my head, immediately getting on four paws.

'Where?' I could have sensed her the minute I saw her or smelt her. I frantically look around the party, but I can't seem to find her, I rush out of the party to go see the alphas, I need to know if all members of the pack are here.

I go straight to the alpha's office but don't enter as I hear moans of pleasure come from there so I go to the former alpha, they are laughing and chatting with some other alphas. I march over to them

"Has everyone in the pack attended the ceremony?" I all but growl at them, unintentionally, they take a step back and he wraps his arm around his mate. Everyone present shrinks at my alpha aura but I don't care, I need to find my mate now.

" Ye- yes.. they are," He stutters, not meeting my eyes.

"I don't think so, my lycan senses his counterpart but I can't find her, only the remnant of her scent,"

The luna hides in her husband's chest at my anger and it's her who answersText property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Yes my king, all the unmated

females are here," She cries, frustrated growl and the whole party goes silent, I take a calming breath but my blood boils when feel someone trying to force themselves on my mate. My eyes darken and fistball. Saga takes over and when he speaks, his domineering tone makes them all

bow.

"I'M GOING TO KILL ALL OF YOU BASTARDS IF I DON'T FIND HER IN FIVE MINUTES!" I roar.

"My king, there are some females in the dungeon, they caused trouble, maybe she might be one of them," Cries a female. I growl as I rush to the dungeon. The guards there make way for me and as I run, her intoxicating scent is getting stronger and undeniably sweet, I follow it and her scream of panic is getting stronger. My blood is boiling when I reach the cell where she is, tear the grill bars and step in, the guards all freeze, looking at me with terror, my eyes go to the floor where a frail girl lays, tears straining down her

beautiful face and her claws are out, she looks at the verge of passing out and there is blood all over the floor. A man is on top of her without a shirt and I see red, my lycan wants the blood of the male that is straddling my soulmate and was clearly about to rape her.

"Mate," as those words leave my mouth, the guards are shaking in fear. They recognize who I am and are gaping and looking between us, Saga wastes no time attacking, and within two minutes, they are lying lifeless on the ground.

I get on my knees, removing the hair that was covering her face and she lazily looks at me, her beautiful blue eyes look lifeless. When I carry her, she weighs nothing. She looks extremely underweight and pale.

"What did they do to you?" I mutter,

kissing her forehead, she slowly raises her hand to touch my clean, chin and drops it again before darkness envelopes her. Someone needs to pay for this. They had to even if I have to punish each one of them.
