The Lycan's Queen novel Chapter 31

The Lycan’s Queen Book 1 – Chapter 31

We headed outside, with our friends close behind us. Tension hung heavy in the air as everyone impatiently waited for Bradley to turn up.

Luke came out from the forest, his clothes torn. Damien followed, all

signs of playfulness gone.

Gabe, who had gone to find Luke, also stepped out beside Damien. Evan held out a pair of clothes for Luke, who grabbed them and put them on.

“I’ll kill him. I swear to God,” Luke growled.

“We know you want to, but you have to control yourself. He is using Sophia as leverage,” Adonis reminded Luke.

“What a sick move, taking the mate of your own brother for leverage,” Damien scoffed

“This guy has no heart.” Gabe shook his head.

An unknown scent filled my nose. It could only be one person. Bradley.

Sure enough, he walked out in the clearing with Sophia over his shoulder. She was clearly drugged and knocked out.

Luke growled and moved forward, (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)but Damien stopped him.

“Ah, I wouldn’t do that if I was you, little bro. Don’t want to hand you your dead mate,” Bradley taunted.

Bradley looked very similar to Luke, the main difference being the claw marks on his face.

He caught me staring and smirked.

“You must be Aarya.”

“Don’t say her name, you fucking bastard,” Adonis spat.

Bradley held his hands up in mock surrender, although the smirk never left his face.

 

“Touchy, are we? Shame that you just found your mate because you’re going to lose her very soon.” His words sounded like a promise, not a warning

“How did you get here so fast?” I asked.

“Lycans run very fast. Plus, I had a plan.” Bradley looked pleased with himself

Bradley’s gaze found Damien, who was standing next to me.

“Wow, a royal family reunion.” His sarcasm was evident.

“Where’s your sister? Inside I presume?” Bradley asked.

Damien growled, causing Bradley to chuckle.

“Good thing he is here because someone needs to take over the throne. Once I kill your mate, Adonis, you will no longer be capable of ruling Bradley just laughed.

This man was crazy. His sick ideas terrified me, but I refused to let it show. Any signs of weakness would be an easy target for this man.

I had to remain calm and keep Adonis calm too. That was not going to be an easy task.

“If you think I will let your filthy hands touch Aarya, then you are sorely mistaken.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) I will tear them from your body before you get a chance,” Damien growled

Bradley just smirked. “Ah, how could I forget? The prince who wants nothing to do with the royal family, but you just can’t get rid of your royal title. How sad, two brothers that have so much power but don’t even want it. That’s why I’m here. It is only fair that someone who wants the power

gets it.”

“Shut your mouth. There is no one as power-hungry as you, and that is why you will never get what you want. Too much of anything is bad, but you will realize that too late.”

Bradley scoffed, “As much fun as this has been, it is time for me to leave. Remember, one scratch on me, I’ll rip her head off.”

He smirked, hoisting Sophia higher on his shoulder. Fucking prick, he

 

needed to die.

“See you soon, Your Majesty. I will so enjoy hearing your screams.” Bradley chuckled at me.

Both Adonis and Damien let out a loud growl and stepped forward. I reached out and grabbed them both, shaking my head.

“Don’t. This is exactly what he wants.”

“See you soon, old friend. It’ll be a fight to the death,” Bradley told Adonis.

We watched as Bradley walked away with Sophia. My lycan was upset, as was I. Leaving Sophia in the clutches of that bastard wasn’t easy, but we had no choice.

When they were out of sight, Adonis stormed inside, chucking things across the room.

He needed to let out his anger, so I let him. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)Evan and Gabe looked at me, but I just shook my head. Damien looked solemn.

“I didn’t realize how much Adonis had to deal with.”

I smiled sadly. “Your brother has to deal with much more. Now he has a mate and his family back but before? I don’t know how he managed it.”

Damien nodded in agreement before walking over to his brother and pulling him away.

“Adonis, calm down. Now we must think of a plan; we can’t waste any more time.”

Adonis took deep breaths as his gaze locked onto me. He held his hand out, which I gladly took.

Kissing the top of my head he replied, “You’re right. We have to get Sophia back.”

We all made our way to the study. Luke looked distraught, so I stayed back to talk to him.

“You better not be blaming yourself,” I warned.

 

“My behavior pushed her into the arms of my brother.” Luke sighed.

“No, you didn’t do anything. The stress got to you, that’s okay. I’d be more worried if it didn’t. Sophia’s kidnapping was done by Bradley and is his fault, not yours. You focus on getting her back, not blaming yourself. That is more important,” I reminded him.

Luke smiled. “Every day you prove why you are the perfect person to be queen. I bet you don’t even realize it.”

We reached Adonis’s study and sat down, trying to think of an idea.

Evan suggested we ambush him, but Adonis refused, saying that it was too predictable and Bradley would be expecting that. Plus, we had no idea where he was hiding

No one could go and look, just in case he harmed Sophia. It was a mess.

Gabe mentioned about bribing him with power and then capturing him. Damien said he wanted power, but right now his main goal was to kill me, so that wouldn’t work either.

Our thoughts were interrupted by the phone ringing

“I want my mate back badly but not at the expense of losing you. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)Sophia would never forgive me, and I could never forgive myself. We will find another way,” Luke said.

Adonis growled, “Why are you talking like you are going to give yourself

up?”

“Like hell you are. I won’t let you out of my sight,” Adonis yelled.

“Adonis, think of the bigger picture here. By giving Bradley want he wants, we can bring him down. He will get too cocky; it is a perfect way.”
