Mated To The Lycan King

Chapter 21
Stephen POV
Iran all night only stopping for food, water, and restroom breaks. I made my way to the Southern castle territory lines. When I
crossed over the castle territory lines midmorning my presence was known immediately and I was surrounded within a few
minutes by several Lycan forces close to the King. I knew had done wrong but Dexter had been my best friend. I warned him and
told him I wasn’t comfortable but he ended up getting his way. I shifted back into my human form as to show I am not posing as a
threat to
them or anyone.
Soon Dexter’s brother, the now king was present. He was angry and I bowed to him knowing if he
wanted he could kill me right here right now.
“Rise.” He commanded and I did as he told me. “What are you doing here Stephen?” His voice was
laced with hatred.
“King Brent please allow me to give you exactly what you want.” I offered. “What is it that I want?” He countered.
I inhaled and paused before speaking my loyalty to Dexter holding me back for a moment. Although now that I crossed into the
Castle territory it would of been too late “To offer up where your brother Dexter is along with the kidnapping crimes of the future
Northern Territorys future Queen and the murder of King Randolph of the Northern Territory. All linking back to Dexter who has
killed your father and is attempting an assassination against the now King of the Southern Territory, you, King Brent.” I looked at
him and never let my eyes drift from his. I could read every expression that crossed his face. Sadness, shock, and more than the
others anger. I heard his breathing change and his fingers clenched and balled into a fist by his side.
“Very well, come with me. We have many things to discuss it seems.” He responded and I let out a
breath of air I didn’t know I held in.
We walked inside the castle walls and inside, making our way into his office.
“What do you want in return for this information?” King Brent asked as he sat down behind his desk, motioning for me to sit. I sat,
gladly my body aching from the overnight and morning run.

I shrugged my shoulders “Immunity from the crimes your brother forced upon me, being his right hand man and of a higher rank
than my own Lycan I was forced to comply. With this I will tell you everything, all of his plans for the future and what he has
done.” I crossed my arms over my chest and watched the King contemplate before I broke the silence “And of course hot food
and a bed for rest.”
He nodded and leaned for a pen and a pad of paper. “Very well, let us begin.”
gave him everything I even threw that girl Sarah and that stupid wolf Ryder under the bus. King Brent wanted names, and I gave
them to him. I started from the beginning and led up until this
morning
“He plans on trying to overtake the Northern Territory after assassinating you and the Northern King.” I leaned back in my seat
and watched anger and rage flow through him.
“So it was my brother who killed our father? Tried to kill me?” He slammed his fist into the desk. “Thank you for the information,
where is he keeping her?”
“The costal beach house. He has about two hundred men scattered throughout there on guard. Where he found them, I do not
know. It’s a mixture of Lycans and wolves.” I offered.
“I see. Well thank you. You may go I have many phone calls to make. Stay close, I am going to need you.” He looked up from his
pad of paper.
He was already dialing a number and whoever was on the other end picked up and sounded angry as the door shut behind me. I
felt a pang of guilt as I walked away from the Kings office. I was met by a small framed woman and led to a room. I walked in and
food was set up and a nice bed with an attached restroom so I could clean up.

Tate, cleaned myself up and collapsed on the bed. I ended up falling asleep for a few hours before a knock was on the door.
When I opened it, King Brent was on the other side.
“I hope you are well rested because I got in touch with King Everest and we are meeting him at our boarders. Also you need to
tell me where that wolf is.” He demanded.
“Which wolf?” I asked.
“The one who murdered King Randolph.” He responded.
“Oh he is in a hideout at the beach house, he plans on going back to his pack but wanted to lay low.” / offered freely.
“Thank you.” He already had his phone out and I assumed texting King Everest. When he put the phone away we left together
with a large amount of warriors by our side and behind us. I was thankful to now be on this side of the fight.
Everest POV
We were at Blood Moon Pack when I got the phone call about Avalynn. She was alive and being held captive. Sarah had a major
role in everything that happened and I was very disappointed in her. I sent a text to my mother to have the guards take Sarah to
the underground jail cells. She agreed without a question why.
I found out from Jamie that Ryder left two days in and no one bothered to think of notifying Alpha Michael that he left. Of course
no one thought he would go off the rails like this either. Jamie was now the Luna to Blood Moon and she sincerely apologized to
me. She and Alpha Alex offered any help that would be needed without asking. I may need that help.
My blood was boiling inside but on the outside I stayed calm. As much as I wanted to rip through everything and everyone I kept
my cool. It took everything I had to reign control over my beast.
My phone dinged again and I checked the text, it was from King Brent.
“King Everest the wolf, Ryder, is currently hiding out at my brother’s Beach Mansion on the coast line. I am on the way to meet
you at our boarder.”
I didn’t respond and closed the message looking at Alex and Jamie both “I am going to need your

strongest warriors. Send them to the Castle, I fear that Dexter is planning on a war. I need you to be with them Alex, leave your
father to be in charge over here until you are able to return. Stop by Silver Lake, Blood Rose, and White Claw Pack and give
them these. I will send a message to each Alpha. You have one week and we will return along with members of Crest Moon.”
“Crest Moon? Isn’t that Alpha Michael’s son’s pack?” Alex asked me and turned to look back down to
Jamie who only nodded.
“It is, unfortunately, but his future beta is also my mates brother. People may be torn on who to follow if Alpha Michael does not
fall in line.” I responded and followed with an annoyed sigh. “What a mess this is for everyone involved.”
“I will go with you to Crest Moon for support if you need me to?” Jamie offered.
“No need, I have a feeling people will comply easy enough. Especially when I tell them what has happened to their future Queen.
Thank you, Jamie. I know you and Avalynn didn’t get along.” She held her hand up to stop me from talking.
“No and it was entirely my fault. My ears were poisoned by the hatred from Ryder. I was too infatuated by his power that I was
too blind to see the truth. For that I could never make it better to her or you. I very much deserved that ass whopping she gave
me back in Crest Moon. I was an ass. Please excuse me as I need to pack our things pretty quickly so we can get going.” She
bowed her head down before turning to leave.
“She will forgive you, in time I am sure.” I called out after her.
“I can only hope.” was her response as she disappeared around a corner.
I turned, Alex waiting for me patiently to walk back. I had a very tight schedule to keep and he knew had to head off to Crest
Moon. We walked to my SUV in silence. We shook hands and he lowered his head

to me.
“Thank you Alex. I will be in touch.” I told him.
“Not a problem, safe travels King Everest. If you need anything else, do not hesitate.” He responded as the door shut. We were
off to Crest Moon.
Four hour car ride later we were approaching the territory of Crest Moon. Wolves surrounded us until they got the scent of who
was in the car, letting us pass through. They still followed us closely, obviously
curious as to what could cause King Everest to grace their presence, even if my mates brother was soon to
be their beta,
When we pulled into the half circle drive Alpha Michael was already standing outside. News had spread like wildfire that my
father was dead but I am hoping that is all that had spread. Seeing an excited looking Claire I assumed I was ccorrect. I told my
men to keep it on the hush until proper parties were
known
When I got out and the door shut behind me without my mate exiting I saw Claire’s face drop in
disappointment. I looked around and Josh was walking up and his eyes darted around, obviously looking for his sister. His face
also dropping in disappointment, but only momentarily.
“Welcome King Everest, I wish this could be on better circumstances. With that said we are all very sorry to hear of the late King,
your father.” Alpha Michael spoke.
My jaw muscles tightened and I inhaled deeply, “Thank you. I need to speak with you, Josh, and Claire privately.” My eyes darted
to the others momentarily they seemed surprised and not in a good way.
When we walked into Michael’s office I sat down on one of the couches and motioned for them to sit as well. I let out a long sigh
as I looked at all of them.
“Josh, Claire.” I paused for a moment before gathering my words and pushing back the emotion that was making it hard to
speak. “Avalynn was taken by Dexter, I know where he is keeping her but he had help and Michael your son is involved.” I
watched the sadness in Josh and Claire’s face. I watched Alpha

Michael’s anger boil.
“Are you absolutely sure about this?” Michael asked through gritted teeth.
“I am. I have a description and a witness who knows his name, pack, everything.” paused before
continuing “He hasn’t been at Blood Moon for a while now. He was there not even a day it seems. Jamie’s mate is Alpha Alex
and it seems he is wanting revenge. So he found Dexter and they have teamed up and with that he has killed my father and
aided Dexter in the kidnapping of my mate.” I let out a low growl.
Michael’s fist was clenched and he shook his head. “I can’t do this. I can not kill my only son.” He looked over at Josh and Claire
then back at me.
“I understand but I will need your support, regardless of who the circumstances are around. They’re raising an army to over take
the Northern Territory to demolish the Southern Territory so he can be King over all.”
He sighed and looked at Josh again and I could already tell what he was thinking as he said it and . knew Josh would be perfect.
“Josh you have shown great promise and have flourished. I am naming you the successor amount Alpha of Crest Moon Pack, do
you accept? King Everest I am asking your permission to accept this blood line to take my place effective immediately.” He
looked at me with a hint of sadness in his eyes. I knew how difficult this had to be on him. He knew that his son could no longer
be an Alpha. He knew his son would pay for the crimes he committed. He knew he would soon lose his son.
I nodded slightly “Of course. Josh do you accept?” Josh was wide eyed and stuttered his words out “I-I-Id-do accept.”
“Good! Then it is settled and we shall have a ceremony tonight and I will take you and Claire and your
warriors with me to the Southern Territory. We are meeting with King Brent and the escaped Lycan who has all of the information
we need to get your sister back. Now, if you all would excuse me I need to let my Lycan out.” I stood and left the room running to
the tree line and shifting in mid run and crashing into a
e, it collapsing to the ground.
