The Lycan's Rejected Mate (naiah and Amos) novel Chapter 9

Leondre's POV

After Dan finished telling me what that woman did to my mate, I was fuming with anger. I went to Amos's office and demanded justice for Ana. I won't let anyone hurt her without any consequence.

"Who do you think you are barging in here like that again?" He demands, his fist clenched

"I am your King. Someone attacked my mate, and I want them punished now," I demand from him. He looks startled and takes a step back.

"Who hurt her?"

"Find out, and I want to hear her screams," I say, leaving the office after he nods. I don't immediately go to my mate. I decide to do some work that I have been putting off, however, I can't seem to get the picture of how I found my mate out of my head. She has endured so much at the hands of everyone here.

'She's a fighter,' says my Lycan. Indeed, that she is.

I called my sister Arya and told her that I’ve found my mate before attending Zoom meeting with the council. She was very happy about that and couldn’t wait to meet her.Then I leave my bedroom to go and see my mate. I close the door to her hospital room only to find Amos, I almost growl, but I notice my mate is sleeping, and I don't want to wake her. What is the fucker doing watching her like a creep?

"Don't touch her. Didn't I warn you not to come into this room again?"

"Eunice was punished for coming in here. She's staying in the dungeons for a few hours and will be whipped," He says while looking at Anaiah. She stirs a little and flutters her long lashes but doesn't wake up.

"And you rejected her, and she was given to me, me," I reminded him of the brutal truth. Regret flickers in his eyes, and I see his wolf resurface, but my Lycan does too, making him involuntary submit to me.

Get out of here," I command. Alpha Amos tries to fight my order but eventually leaves the room. I take the chair near the bed and extend my hand to caress her flawless face with my fingers. Tingles jolt beneath my fingers, and her eyes slowly open, but they shine blue, and I'm taken back. She tries to keep her eyes open, but the medication they gave her is too strong.

I stay with her a while longer, and her eyes lull again. I can watch her the whole day, goddess. I can't believe she's mine and all mine. I'll love her, protect her with my life. This is the promise I make. Her eyes shut, and she stirs a little. Is she having a bad dream?

I try to wake her up, but she won't. I stare at her in confusion. I close my eyes, trying to reach her through our bond, but I see a white halo. Shocked, my Lycan closes our link.

I caress her cheeks and kiss her soft lips. She inhales and wakes up, getting into a sitting position.
