The Lycan King

Chapter 28. Mom

Nikolai

I opened my eyes to see Ava's head on my chest and her arm around my waist.

I smiled.

I caressed her hair and saw it turn white under my touch. The reason was a mystery but it didn't bother

me as much. I want to know the reason why but deep down I knew it wasn't a negative thing.

I slowly slipped from under her and got off the bed. I peeled off the covers and saw goosebumps rise

on her naked skin.

Smirking, I kissed my way up her legs to her inner thighs and saw her twitch. Her eyes were shut but

her heart was beating faster. Then I kissed her already wet core and was gifted with a small moan.

I smirked wider.

She tried to close her legs but I held them apart.

Then, I dug in my breakfast. I lapped up her juices before sucking at her pussy. Her back arched off the

bed and she woke up with a lust- filled scream. I tightened my hold on her thighs so she didn't move.

Her eyes widened when she saw me and she let out another moan when I grazed my teeth. Her hands

gripped my hair and tugged and I groaned. I loved it when she did that. I continued devouring her core

and kept my eyes on her, not wanting to miss a single thing.

Seeing her get off got me off too.

"Pleasee..." she moaned. I doubled my efforts and just before she was there, I paused. She screamed

and looked at me with her enticingly aroused blue eyes.

"Whom does this pussy belong to Avalyn?" I asked darkly.

"You." She groaned and bucked her hips, urging me to continue. I pushed them back down.

"Thats right, Love. This is my pussy to do as I please." I murmured and gave it a long lick. Her pants

grew heavier. "Please Master. Please let me come." She cried.

I smirked and and crawled up and kissed her lips, slamming my cock in her wet core without warning.

She cried my name again.

"Cum, my love." I said softly, my tone exactly opposite of how hard I was pounding into her and how my

finger and thumb were now pinching her nipples. She cried out her orgasm while I didn't stop my

movements, her nails scratching my back.

"Thats right, dig your nails deep, Avalyn." I gritted. She clawed harder until I smelled blood and I

smirked down at my little wolf. Her orgasm just ended and her next one was close.

I kissed her hard and pinched her clit. "Cum with me." I groaned and shot my load in her and she

climaxed with me again.

I stayed still until we both were done, but I still didn't move. Her tight pussy was too good to be left

empty and her smell drove me crazier than ever before. I knew she had changed after shifting and

mating but my mate had done a total three sixty and I was fucking proud of her.

"Good morning." She smiled at me, her dimples popping.

"Understatement of the century." I grinned.

"True." She said as a blush rose her cheek. I thumbed her cheeks. She was shy after everything we

did? I chuckled.

"I love it when you laugh." She whispered suddenly.

"Only for you, my Love. Only for you." I said and finally slipped out of her. I was getting hard again and

we had too much to do. We shifted to our fur and started running.

I nipped at her feet and brushed my coat against her coat, slowing her slightly which made my wolf and

I laugh. The sparks were affecting her too, much to my amusement.

She nipped at my tail, making me growl playfully. She let out a small mewl and I started chasing her,

making her run faster.

You can never run from me, Moya lyubov.

Just before we were about to reach the back door of the estate, I pounced on her back. But she was

fast in twisting and moving out of the way before I could land on her.

She gave me an excited and satisfied yip.

'Good move.' I smiled.

'Thank you.' She sounded exhilarated.

I almost forgot that being in the wolf form was new to her. She had a better control of her wolf than

most newbies.

We shifted to our skin before we went to our room and showered together, somehow managing to

finish quickly and not having sex again.

When we both were dressed again, I pulled her out of the room and we walked down the hallway.

When we reached in front of the door, I pulled out the key from my pocket and and unlocked it.

We walked in, hand in hand, into my mom's bedroom.

"This is my mother's bedroom." I told her softly.

Her heart stopped for a second before she looked at me with a shocked expression. I know she didn't

expect me to share so soon but there was no reason not to other than it hurt me. To be fair, she had

shared about her past too.

But I wasn't returning the favour, I was telling her because I wanted to.

I went to the bedside and picked up the picture frame of mom and I. She had blue eyes and brown hair

just like mine. She had the same high cheeks structure that I do and the same chin. The only thing I got

from Adrik, my father was my grey eyes and my strong jaw line.

She was smiling in the picture but you could see the pain in her eyes.

"My?father,"?disgust crawling up my face even at his thought, "is a cruel man. He was abusive towards

my mom and I. She wasn't his mate, they were mated because of their pure lineage. And I was the heir

he always wanted. He made me train ever since I could walk to become the next Alpha. He would

punish me if he thought I did a bad job that day. Never in front of anyone else, or so hard that it would

leave a mark, because that would ruin his reputation. At first, mom wasn't aware of it, but then the

blood got too much to hide." Ava hugged me and tucked her head in the crook of my neck, placing a Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

soft kiss there.

"She broke down and apologised to me. When she confronted him, he hit her too. Thats when he

started being abusive towards her in front of me. I was only ten year old then, I tried to stop him but I

was?weak." I admitted, hating that fact. If I had been stronger, maybe my mom would have been with

me today. My eyes blurred with tears and I blinked them away.

"After a year of planning, we ran away. A lot of pack members helped us too. They knew that there was

tension going on but no one knew the details. My mom had inherited a vast fortune from her parents

and she bought this property and we started living here, away from my pack, my?home." I croaked. I

hated that I had to leave everyone I loved to come here. No matter the conditions, Mystic Lupus is my

pack.

"We were not exactly happy here, but at least we were safe. Slowly we started forming our own pack

when more and more rogues came to us for help. My mom helped everyone she believed was good.

She had a penchant for helping the troubled. I guess the only one she couldn't help was herself." I

whispered.

Ava brushed a tear that had fallen down my cheek. I saw her look up at me with teary eyes. "She was

never happy?? she would smile for me but she wasn't happy."

I wiped her eyes. "This is my mom." I said. She turned in my arms to look at the picture in my hand.

"Her name is V-"

"Viktoria." She breathed as she cut me off.

My eyes widened. How the hell did she know? More tears fell down her eyes and a sob tore through

her throat. Her legs knees buckled but I tightened my hold on her before she could fall.

"How do you know her name Avalyn?" I pressed. Why was she crying so much? A deep pit grew in my

stomach but I refused to think about anything else.

She opened her eyes and looked at me with pained eyes. "She was there Nik!" She cried. "She was

the one who killed herself." She covered her mouth. "She was the one who was like a mother to me

after Mrs. Maria died.?She was Emmanuel's pet." She whispered brokenly.

"Thats not possible. I saw her die in front of me." I screamed. Angry that she would even insinuate

something like that. "We were attacked and I saw saw the wolf plunge his knife in her stomach. I heard

her heartbeat stop."

But they took her body away.?Maybe they healed her.

Fuck.

No.

Tears quickly filled my eyes. The floor beneath my feet moved and my I stumbled before I fell down on

my knees, not being able to carry my own weight. I disappointed my mother. I should have searched

harder.

Fuck.

I should have fought harder. I hadn't been strong enough back then either. From what stories Ava had

told me about her past, I could imagine what mom would have gone through as well. I wrapped my

arms around her waist and placed my head against her stomach as I cried. I never want to imagine

anything like that again. The only two women I have ever loved have gone through the same

nightmare. Maybe I was cursed. Maybe they shouldn't have loved me.

Ava placed her hand on my head and caressed my head. "Its not your fault Nikolai." She whispered.

"She loved you very much." I just shook my head, she was saying all of this to make me feel better.

"I love you, sweet child, but I can't live like this anymore, I miss my son, I hoped I could escape and go

back to him but I can't live like this anymore. I'm sorry for the pain I will cause you."?Avalyn said,

almost as if she was reciting it. "They were the last words of your mother before she took her life."

I just hugged her tighter. All I could feel was pain and regret. It consumed my entire body, so much that

I started vibrating. I felt like I was a kid and back under Adrik's rule again. Able to see what was

happening, having to suffer through it but not being able to do anything about it.

I want to fucking kill Emmanuel and Emilio. My body hummed with rage. Hot white fury took over me. I

was not the weak boy now, I am a strong Alpha and could face my fears and fight. I let go of Ava and

stood up. I turned around and jumped off the window, shifting in the air and landing on my paws.

All I could see was mom's smiling face. Crying face. Determined face. Kind face. Loving face.

'You are such a good little boy, Nik.' She smiled.

A memory flashed in front of my eyes.

'Shh...it's okay, Love. It's okay.' She sobbed, hugging me to her.

And then another.

'We are leaving tonight.' She clutched my little hand in hers.

And one more.

'Nik, this is Max. He will be staying with us and you will treat him like he is your brother okay?' She

smiled at me as she patted the shoulders of a skinny boy who was only a couple of inches taller than

me.

And then I remembered her smiling face.

'I love you, Nikolai.' She ruffled my hair.

She didn't deserve this. She was the kindest, most strongest person I knew.

Her face changed to Ava's.

Her kneeling.

Her being raped.

Her crying out her safe-word.

She didn't deserve this either. Especially at such a young age.

I could kill the entire Mont?na Pack with the rage I was feeling.?

I ran through the forest, making my way to Mont?na Pack, to end it once and for all. I didn't care what

would happen to me as long as I killed the father- son duo.

I licked my lips at the thought.

Suddenly someone slammed on my, making me crash against a tree. I let out a loud growl and pinned

the wolf?? Avalyn on the ground.

'Don't fucking test me right now Avalyn. Go back to the estate.'?I snarled.

'You are not going anywhere.'?She said confidently.

'And who's going to stop me? You?'?I had her caged underneath me.

'Yes.'?She gritted and bit my leg and got out.

I growled at her as we both glared at each other. She was not backing off.

She came running to me and pounced but I ducked and pinned her down again. I growled and bit her

neck, not hard but just enough to hurt if she made a single move.?"I said go back to the estate."?I

ordered fiercely in my Master tone. Her eyes glowed blue and suddenly, I was off her and on the

ground. She towered over me.

"I submit to you because I want to, do not think that I will do anything that I don't want to. And this time,

Nikolai, I will not back off. I will not let my mate go to my pack to get himself killed. Going alone, without

a plan is suicide. Look beyond your anger and you will realise it."?She said and then ran back back.

Her words stilled me. Guilt of treating Ava badly surpassed my anger. How can I be so messed up?

She is right. Of course she is right.

I am ashamed of how irresponsibly I behaved. I am an Alpha and responsible for many more lives, I

can't afford to be so short tempered. Instead of going back to the estate, I went to the clearing. I wanted

to give Ava some time and I wanted some time myself to think.

Learning what actually happened to my mom had shook me. I needed to calm down my anger and I

knew if I went back right now, I'll start a fight or something. I needed to be on my own.
