Unwanted Mate Of The Lycan Kings (by jessica hall) novel Chapter 61

My entire body is freezing and the walk back seems to stretch on forever. The buzz from using granny’s power has left me exhausted, nearly paralyzed completely. The adrenaline leaves and here comes the low of using magic, the physical and energetic exhaustion. Yet my mind is racing and yet the closer we get to the castle, the more worried I become. I will once again be alone with Zeke. Only this time I am in no position to fight him.

Using way too much energy than fathomable I try to sit up in Regan’s arms, his fur tickling my skin as I grip his shoulders. “I can walk,” I tell him, I can’t afford to be lazing around while we walk back, I needed to move and get feeling back in my limbs. But instead of letting me go, Regan just adjust his grip on me, one hand sliding under my butt as he wraps my legs around his waist. My face heats when I come face to face with him when he licks my cheek. I stare at him thoroughly grossed out and wipe my face with the back of my hand.

“That was damn nasty, god knows where your tongue has been, you could have been licking your ass for all I know!” He laughs.

“I’m not a dog,” he huffs.

“You look like one walk on two legs to me.” Instead of answering he does it again and I swat him with my hand.

“Stop being disgusting!”I snarl at him and he laughs tugging me closer but I try to get out of his arms, he growls, nipping my cheek and chin with his sharp teeth. I hiss at the sting of it wondering what he is doing and why he is biting me.

“Do that again and I will bite you back!” I snap at him. When he does it again I shriek only this time he nipped at my neck. Having enough of his biting, I bite him back. only when I do, she shifts and instead of biting his shoulder like intended, I bite his neck.

Regan groans and I jerk back finding flesh instead of fur, hands instead of claws, and him very naked. Regan growls and I look at his neck, the wound healing when he growls grabbing the back of my neck and biting me back.

I thrash as he bites my lip and he chuckles kissing me instead. I push on his shoulders making him lose his grip slightly and I slide down him, his hands quick to move, stopping me and hoisting me higher.

A shriek leaves me at the thought of being dropped, but Regan uses that to his advantage forcing his tongue into my mouth. I bite his tongue, making him groan, and the kiss turns violent, teeth and soft tissue clashing. “Okay, you win!” I chuckle against his lips which are assaulting mine. He laughs pulling back slightly when someone clears their throat.

“As entertaining as it is to watch you two love birds, I would like to get home before dark.” Lyon snarls at me and only then do I realize Regan is no longer walking and we have stopped.

“Hand her over,” Zeke says and my grip on Regan tightens.

“She’s fine,” Regan snarls at him.

“And she’s my date, hand her over,” Zeke repeats.

“I can walk,” I tell them, and Regan sets me on my feet only for them to be swept out from under me.

“Zeke!” Regan snarls, but Zeke takes off. A squeal leaves me as my surroundings turn to a blur of green and brown, I can hear Regan calling out but his voice is muffled by the wind. My head feels dizzy from the motion, my stomach queasy and I have no choice but to press closer to him. The wind whipping my arms is making them sting.

“Zeke, slow down. You’re hurting me,” I whimper, not expecting him to but he does and then suddenly holds me out at arm's length looking me over. “Where am I hurting you?” he demands while I dangle in the air.

“The wind, it stings my skin.” I hiss, and he grunts crushing me against his chest just as Regan, Lyon, and Gnash catch up to us.

“Fucking prick, give her back!” Regan snarls, his hands grabbing me. Zeke growls at him but Regan ignores him when Hunter suddenly growls at Regan. Regan glances down at him before glancing at Zeke.

“Call him off, Zeke,” Zeke shakes his head. And continues stomping through the forest. Regan goes to grab him.

“You’ll only hurt her, she is fine, Regan,” Zeke snarls.

“Not in your hands she’s not!” Zeke growls and both of them stand toe to toe for a second, and I find myself caught between them. If either of them shifts right now I am in a bad position to escape before the claws come out.

“Hand her over!” Regan speaks his voice ice cold and his eyes flash, his canines slipping free of his gums.

“Woah, okay both of you settle down!” Lyon comes over forcing himself between them.

“Stop, both of you. Zeke just gives her to him, for god’s sake.”

“Last I checked, she’s mine today. Now back off, Regan. Or maybe she will get hurt!” Zeke snarls, stomping off. I swallow and peer back at Regan over Zeke’s shoulder.
