The Lycan King's Long Lost Princess
The Lycan King’s Long Lost Princess Chapter 38

Hunters POV

The council left early this morning after organizing the bounty. There’s a reward for $100,000 for him to be handed over alive. And a $10,000 reward for any reliable information.

They also questioned Serene, leaving her here for me to decide her fate. But in all honesty, I’m going to see what Gen thinks.

Today, we’re going to prepare for Sarah’s birthday, setting up the ballroom. Genevieve mentioned something about inviting the whole kingdom and some of the neighboring packs. Which I thought was a great idea. Maybe she’ll find her mate, even though Mark has taken a liking to her.

Sarah and Mark are staying behind, while Gen, Dakota, and William all come. We invited the boys but they said they wanted to stay and train. Jeremy has decided he also wanted to train when he’s not working the stables.

As Gen and I head out of the door it flings open and in walks Dakotas boyfriend. Who I honestly thought she broke up with.

“Where is she?” He asked. His eyes full of rage.

“Excuse me?” I ask.

“I’ve never liked this pr*ck!” Marcus growled.

“Me neither. But because of Dakota, we dealt with it. Now that she’s no longer with him, he’s no longer welcome.”

“Sorry my king. Where is Dakota?” He asked again, but in a more respectful tone and bares his neck to me.

“She is with her mate. They are on their way downstairs. We’re leaving.”

“I need to talk with her.” He said as he pushed through Gen and I.

“Where the h*ll do you think you’re going?” I asked. This guy is really pushing my buttons.

“To find her.” He said. Dakota came down the stairs and when she saw him her eyes widened.

“What are you doing here, Evan?” She asked. She looks at William and you can see he has no idea what’s going on.

“You can’t break up with me. Not after years we’ve been together.” He yelled. I look at Gen and she grabs my arm to stop me from snatching him up.

“I found my mate, Evan. We are over. Any feeling I had for you is gone. Especially after all those years you were sleeping with other girls.” Dakota screamed.

William just stands there looking p*ssed.

“She is my mate. Don’t tell her what she can and can’t do. You don’t own her.” William growled. He stepped between Dakota and Evan.

“You? You’re nothing.” He sniffs the air.

“You’re not even a Lycan.” Evan argued.

“No, I may not be. But that doesn’t mean she’s not my mate.” William said.

“So you’re just leaving me over some werewolf?” Evan looked at Dakota.

“HE IS MY MATE. YOU’D BETTER LEARN YOUR PLACE, ACTING LIKE THIS IN FRONT OF YOUR KING. WHO THE H*LL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?” Dakota snarled. Her eyes keep shifting from normal to black as she fights her Lycan not to shift.

“Whatever. This isn’t over.” Evan glared at William before William shifted and lunged at him.

“MY MATE. NOT YOURS.” Williams wolf was snapping at Evans throat on the ground. Evan shifts and throws William off, making Dakota s****m. Dakota shifts and attacks Evan. Scratching at him and biting at his neck.

“STOP!” Gen screamed. Everyone halted and shifted back. I’ve never heard her sound like that before, it was far more powerful than a royal command.

I look at her and her pupils are glowing red. It looks like she’s.. floating? Her feet no longer connected to the ground.

“Woah. What’s going on with mate?”

“I’ve got no idea, maybe it’s one of her gifts coming in?”

“Ophelia says yes.”

“What? You can talk to Ophelia?” I ask.

“Yes dude. She said it’s a part of her gift. She can technically mind link anyone she wants, even without a connection.” Marcus said.

“Okay wow.”

“Gen?” I asked. She turned her head towards me in an instant and I grab her wrist. Her pupils turn back to normal as she lowers to the ground.

All of the sudden my mind link opens and everyone in the castle is talking at once.

“What happened? Who was that? What’s going on?” I hear guards say.

“It was your queen. Get back to doing whatever you were doing.” I said.

“But how did sh-.” I stop them before they can finish.

“Just do what I asked.

“What was that?” Dakota asked. Evan turns to her and points his finger at her.

“You’ll see me again.” He shoot’s Genevieve a look and I growl, making him cower with fear.

“If you come back I’ll have my guards take you to the cells.” I said. He furrowed his brows and walked out of the castle.

“Who the h*ll does he think he is? Storming in my kingdom like a fool. I will never understand what you saw in him.” I say to Dakota. She rolls her eyes but then looks at William. The sad look on his face saying everything.

“Mark me. I want to be Lycan. Especially with him threatening to come back.” William said.

“I told you. We will talk about it more soon. I want to, but it’s a huge change and I don’t know how your body will handle it.” She says.

“Guys, let’s talk about this later okay?” I say. They all nod but William turns to Gen.

“So what exactly was that?” He asked.

“I don’t know. All I know is that he made me angry. And he was going to hurt you in his Lycan form. I didn’t know what else to do so I just yelled.” She said. She turned towards me and gave me a small smile.

“Whatever it was, it affected the entire kingdom. Everyone mind linked me at once asking what it was. Sh*t. I even felt it.” I said as I rubbed the back of my neck.

“I wonder what else you can do, besides command an entire kingdom and float a foot off the ground.” William laughed.

“We will find out soon you guys. Until then, we have a birthday party to plan. It’s tomorrow so obviously we don’t have much time. I feel so bad I forgot about it!” Gen said.

“Right! Let’s make haste, we have lots to do. Mark and Dakota have already emailed the invitations. And we’ve already got many responses saying they’re coming. I mean, who would want to miss a ball with the king and queen?” I said. Gen laughed and we all headed out to the SUVS.

“Wait Dakota, do you remember her dress size?” Gen asked.

“Of course I do. And her shoe size. No need to worry, this is kinda my thing.” Dakota replied. We all laughed as the car started pulling onto the road.
