Mated To The Lycan King

Chapter 601

I rushed to where the sound of the explosion happened, people were scattering everywhere. They were running around in a complete panic. I had yet to hear from Ryder but I overheard one of his warriors complain how they could no longer link Brennon for guidance. Ryder must have done what we discussed or was in the process of ending him. I smiled at myself, everything was coming together the way I had planned. I searched around, as I made my way to the Northern Terrace, for Candace. I should never have laid my hands on her, but what’s done is done. I could only apologize and hope that she would forgive me in the end. She should never have flipped her sit on me though. She may have been my mate, but I am still the king. She would surely see where she was wrong, eventually. I sighed, annoyed that I couldn’t even pick her scent anymore. 

I listened to the screaming and began directing people away to where they would be needed or safe. “Make sure you contain them. If they have breached our walls, make sure they do not pass through our warrior line!” I shouted at a guy. He bowed, nodded his head at me, and took off to pass down my orders with about forty other men. I watched them turn the corner and I continued my search for Candace. 

I reached the terraces and walked out, pushing open the double glass doors. The balcony stuck out and overlooked the gated entrance for visitors. I should have known they would be coming in that way. The question was, when would they have done what they are doing now, attacking us. I looked out at the crowd and spotted Avalynn first. She looked fierce in her tight clothing that seemed to contour around her curves. I then saw the brute behind her, like a protective wall that could move and shield her whenever she needed. Everest. I narrowed my eyes at him and my beast let out a deadly growl. 

The growl was barely able to escape my mouth when I spotted Candace. What the hell was she doing down there? Were they going to take her hostage? I noticed another Lycan who looked like Everest and realized it was his cousin, Jeremy. The one we were going to recruit. Why was he standing so close to Candace? She seemed to lean against him. I scanned over her and she wasn’t being restrained. What the hell was going on? What did I miss? I let out a deathly growl and all their eyes looked up at me. 

“Candace, did they hurt you?” I asked her between gritted teeth. She looked like she was about to explode or laugh. It was a thin line, maybe both. Her emotions were hard to read. 

“Hurt me?” She laughed at me. Actually it was more of a sarcastic laugh before she continued “Like you did when you slapped me?” She asked in a super angry tone, in a near yell. I raised my brows at 

her. 

“You know I.” Suddenly something was tossed in my direction, and someone yelled “Duck.” It was too late for me though. Another explosion happened around me and the entire balcony collapsed under my feet. I shifted into my Lycan for protection and picked up a large concrete brick and hurled it at Everest and his stupid smug face. They all ducked and the siab barely missed their heads. 

I stepped out from the rubble when the rest who were still in their human form shifted to their Lycan forms and wolf forms. I looked around and let out a loud growl linking my men “It is time. Where are you? What happened to my first line of men?” 

“What? Where are you? We have an issue at the south gate! Your brother and that witch are here?! can’t find Ryder!” One of my head warriors responded. 

“Send whoever you can.” I told him. Where was Ryder? 

How is Miranda alive? I thought I killed her? How did she manage to survive? I growled out of annoyance. 

I only had a few men with me, but it would have to work for now. The cousin jumped at me and i stepped back out of his reach. I took another slab of concrete and chucked it at him as hard as I could. It hit him and he flew back, landing on his back on the ground. Candace moved towards him like a magnet. I watched her for a brief moment when she leaned down and lifted the slab off of him. I heard her soft voice “Oh babe, here, let me help you.” I watched Candace bend down and help him. 

Babe? No damn way this is happening again. I seen red. I lunged at the nearest person. They were caught off guard. I heard my men were engaged in the battle along side of me. I clawed at the smaller lycan’s neck, slashing through his fur and skin as blood oozed out. Jeremy, Everest’s cousin, was now back 

standing and his growl caught my attention. 

“Give up.” Everest growled through the link that connected all of the royals. 

Everest and Jeremy both growled, putting themselves in front of Avalynn and Candace.

It was clear that after everything was said and done she would choose

It made me sick to my stomach to watch. I felt the contents of my stomach try to push its way up as blood spued around Everest and Dexter. My heart dropped then raised into my throat. It felt like it was so hard to breathe, gasped for air. The sight of Dexter on top of Everest, concrete slabs slamming into his nearly limp body was horrid.

Ryder murdered him in cold blood with the help of his witch, who was waiting just inside for everything to be finished. Seems to be that he was helping the witch settle a score of some kind, but not my problem. In a way,
