Claimed by the Mad Lycan King

Seara closed her eyes for a brief moment when Zade kissed her. She savored this feeling of comfort that she had never felt before and snuggled against him when he caressed her head.

This warm sensation and the ticklish feeling when their skin made contact were... addicting. After she got used to his presence, she wanted him all the time, though occasionally Zade would scare her, but she preferred him to be around.

She liked it when he played with her hair, but then she remembered that woman, and a frown formed on her brows as she opened her eyes and stared at Zade unhappily.

”Who is she?” She moved her head away from his touch, but when she tried to put distance between them, Zade tangled their legs, which didn’t allow Seara to get away from him.

”She is the daughter of Alpha Lachlan from the Wolf Fang Pack, one of the biggest packs that allied with the Wolfsbane Haven Kingdom. Currently, she is the highest woman in terms of status in that kingdom, so I was supposed to take her as my chosen mate.”

Seara pushed Zade away; she didn’t want to be close to him. Something inside her snapped as the painful feeling flooded back.

She couldn’t really recall what happened, but something must have happened in the past that caused this kind of resentment and pain.

However, Zade kept her close to him.

”The agreement has been canceled since the first night I found you.” Zade didn’t want to lie, but he couldn’t find a better way to break the news.

He hoped Seara wouldn’t talk about it, but then that was the first question she asked when she regained consciousness.

”Don’t fight me again, Seara. I don’t want to hurt you,” Zade said gently. He held her by the elbow because her right wrist was bandaged. But if she kept up with the fight, she would injure herself again.

”No! Liar!” Seara was on the verge of having a breakdown again, and if this continued, it would only repeat what happened yesterday.

Zade was silent for a moment before he let go of her hands and then pushed himself from the bed.

Seeing this, Seara was stunned. She sat down immediately and watched as Zade got off the bed and walked across the room.

”He hates you... You are a dumbass; you are a bitch... that’s why he hates you. You are difficult to love... No one likes you... You only cause trouble. Bad luck. Bad luck for the pack...” Seara mumbled to herself.

Zade was going to walk away. He wouldn’t want her because she was crazy. He didn’t want an ugly, crazy woman. That woman from yesterday was way better, and she came from a high-status background. She was an alpha’s daughter.

Enid.

Enid was also an alpha’s daughter, and she gave her the poison. Enid made her drink the poison and her wolf spirit...

Suddenly, Zade’s figure appeared before her eyes again, and she was a little bit startled, since she thought he was going to leave her.

Apparently, Zade took something from the top of the desk and brought it back to Seara. He placed it in her hand, and when she looked down, she saw a few papers.

With a frown, Seara looked back and forth between the papers and Zade. ”What are these...?”

”The arrangement and the cancellation,” he replied.

Since the union between Zade and Chloe was intended to unite the two kingdoms, a significant amount of paperwork was involved with the whole procession.

Therefore, there would be a lot of paperwork that followed the cancellation as well. Sure enough, Zade had to pay a tremendous amount of money and stock in the market for it, but it was nothing he couldn’t afford.

”It’s only an arrangement, Seara. Everything will be cancelled by the end of this week. They only need to sign the paper.”

Zade caressed Seara’s hair. It was so long that it reached her thighs. But now, the color was no longer dull.

”You have marked me; I am yours.” Zade showed the bite mark on his wrist. The bite from Seara yesterday left a scar on Zade’s wrist.

Seara didn’t fully understand what was written on the documents that Zade showed her, since they contained so many business terms, but indeed she saw the line about the collaboration between the two kingdoms through the union between Zade and Chloe.

But then when Zade showed her the bite mark on his left wrist, she put away the documents and took his hand in hers. She stared at it for a long while and caressed it with her fingers.

”Is it... hurt?” Seara asked in a small voice. She didn’t mean to hurt him. She didn’t want him to get hurt.

”No. It’s not as hurtful as when you tried to hurt yourself.” Zade leaned over; he wanted to kiss her lips, but it would probably be too soon for him to do that, so he kissed her forehead instead.

The kiss lingered for a few seconds longer.

”Don’t hurt yourself anymore, Seara; I can’t handle that.” He kissed both of her eyes and then her cheeks. They blushed beautifully. ”You have marked me now. I am yours.”

Seara swallowed with difficulty; she was still holding his hand, and the spark was still there. Even though her memories were blurry, she was sure no one had ever said anything close to that.

”You are... mine?” Seara lifted her head and stared at Zade’s striking blue eyes.

”Yes.” He brought her injured wrist to his lips and kissed her over the bandage. ”Don’t get hurt again.”

Seara watched as Zade pressed his lips lightly on her wrist to her knuckles. She felt her stomach flutter, and she felt giddy.

But then, someone shouted from outside the room. His voice echoed throughout the small house. Seara startled and retracted her hand from Zade’s grip.

”Zade! Where are you!? I am back!”
