Unwanted Mate Of The Lycan Kings (by jessica hall) novel Chapter 11

Zirah POV

Malachi urges us toward the maze entrance, and the women begin to panic, turning and running, yet I stay rooted to the spot staring up at the large hedges. Guards that helped escort us down snatch the other women, shoving and pushing them toward the entrance. Snarls and growls suddenly fill the air, and we all spin to see the three Kings and next to each one were three huge wolves, white as snow with blood-red eyes. They weren’t ordinary wolves. They also weren’t werewolves, making me wonder if these were the savage pets Malachi spoke of.

Not only that, but they are larger than normal wolves yet don’t share the amber eyes werewolves have.

“Get them ready, I need to find out what is going on. The Kings aren’t meant to enter until morning.” Malachi orders one of the guards before stalking off up the hill.

I listen closely trying to gauge what is going on when the guard that seizes my arm, hauls me closer to the maze entrance and the women struggle and thrash as we are placed directly in front.

“Well, it is nice meeting you ladies, you’re all fucked now.” the guard announces and the girl from the truck whimpers. “Change of plans, you don’t need to fear the lions.” he nods toward the Kings walking down the hill with Malachi.

“The Kings have brought down their pets to play.” the vampire man tells us. The women sob and cry while I watch them draw closer when we are suddenly thrust into the maze.

“When the horn sounds, the wolves will be released. Survive the night and you shall be rewarded.” I scoff, knowing no one ever survives the maze.

“Well, start running, the Kings haven't fed them yet. They are hungry,” the vamp taunts. The women instantly take off, yet I stop just inside the entrance, turning and looking up at the high hedges where the women rushed down. My eyes scan my surroundings as I stare at the intricate vines.

“Seems this one wants to die first.” The vampire laughs, and I glare at him over my shoulder, walking in a little deeper.

“As long as they are all dead by morning, I don’t care who dies first.” I hear one of the Kings voices, my guess is Zeke.

“Are you staying to watch my Kings?” I hear Malachi ask.

“No, we will stop by in the morning to pick them up once we lock them in. They’ll handle them.” I hear King Regan speak confidently.
