The Lycan King's Long Lost Princess
The Lycan King’s Long Lost Princess Chapter 78

Hunters POV

I have missed being with my mate. The many nights I spent drunk passed out in my office. Or the nights I went and stalked Jaden. All those nights were horrible because I was avoiding Gen.

I said those things to her, and she was so mad about everything that she disintegrated that girl. I’ll admit, I had already fantasized about killing Serene a different way, giving her wolfsbane and throwing her into the pit.

The pit is a district outside of vampire or wolf territory. It’s full of forsaken wolves, the deadliest of them all. They’re cast-outs, rogues that went bad. After a while of not having a pack, you start to go crazy. Then you end up in your wolf or lycan form forever, unable to shift back. The person that was once there, completely gone and replaced with a bloodthirsty monster.

But you see how well my idea turned out. I was almost sure Genevieve was going to let her go.. She’s more powerful than I’ve ever seen her.

When I couldn’t calm the demons with alcohol, I went and watched Jaden with the men I have there. There were a few moments I found myself walking closer to him, ready to rip him to pieces. Make him suffer for everything he did to my mate. But Mark mind linked me and snapped me out of it and left.

I can’t take his life. It has to be Genevieve. Even though I want nothing more than to have already killed him, because she needs him to be alive for the trial.

As for the elders, I have no idea if I can trust them. And John? I’m going to kill him. If any of the others stand in my way, I’ll kill them too. I will protect my mate with everything and everyone.

I’m brought out of my thoughts when I feel a kick against my hand. I wish I had been here. I did go to her doctor’s appointments, but I sat away from her and stayed quiet. She doesn’t need any more stress, and I tend to say stupid sh*t.

I run my hand over her swollen belly and smile when my son kicks again. When we found out the gender, I still didn’t speak. I just sat there quietly with a smile on my face. I felt so much joy at that moment, and when I looked at Gen, she didn’t look at me. So I let myself out.

“Ow,” Gen grumbles. She throws her arm back and whacks me in the head.

“Ouch,” I said, rubbing my temple.

“Your son thinks it’s okay to hit. I’m ready for him to get out.” She snaps. She struggles to sit up so I help her, and she wobbles her way to the bathroom in a rush. After a few minutes, she comes back out, her hair is brushed and pulled into a braid.

“Are you okay?” I asked. She has a worried look on her face as she walks over to me.

“Yeah, I just.. I feel something. Something.. I don’t know. Maybe it’s just nerves.” She said. I pull her to me and k**s her belly.

“It could be. He’ll be here any day.” I said. She smiles at me and nods but still looks unsure.

“He’s missing.” Mark mind links me.

“Who’s missing?” I asked.

“Jaden.” He said. A growl escapes my lips and Genevieve moves back but I shake my head.

“I have something I need to go do. Stay with Connor and the others?” I asked and she nods. I stand up and get dressed when she struggles to get on a pair of shorts.

“Nothing fits!” She cries. Her face is red from struggling so much.

“Why don’t you wear this?” I asked, handing her a bag of clothes I had picked up. They’re a bunch of above-the-knee t-shirt dresses. They’re loose and light so they should be comfortable. I picked them up yesterday before I saw everyone at dinner.

She takes the bag and pulls out a light grey dress and holds it out, getting a better look at it. She smiles and slips it on.

“It’s so soft!” She says.

“I thought so too. I figured these would be comfortable for you, I asked the girls for some insight. There are also a few for the recovery room after birth. Those have buttons in the front for br*astfeeding. Maria said you wanted to do that, so I thought those would be helpful.” I say. She smiles and tears fill her hazel eyes.

“I’ve missed you.” She says. She walks over to me and pulls me in for a k**s. I had to lean down even more since the belly is in the way.

“Okay, love. Connor is here, I’ll see you later.” I said. I finished getting dressed as she left and when I was done I went and met Mark in my office.

“What happened? He was supposed to be watched at all times.” I growl. Mathew walks into the room and sits down, looking oh so eager to get his hands on that vampire lord.

“They were. It’s like he disappeared. They didn’t smell him. They didn’t see him. He was there one second, gone the next.” Mark says. I shake my head.

“Find him.” I snap. Mark nods and pulls out his phone.

“Alpha Landon said he would contact us if Jaden steps back into his land. He also said thank you for letting their packs merge.” Mathew says and I nod.

“Tell him I said he deserves it. And to keep in touch.” I said and Mathew leaves the room.

After a few hours of going through files and taking care of a few things some of the packs in my territory have brought to me, I get a mind link.

“A girl is missing. She’s 20, with black hair and green eyes. About Genevieve’s height. Her name is Sandra and she’s missing from Amethyst lake pack. It’s been about 5 hours since she was last seen.

“Gather a few men, let’s go to Amethyst lake,” I said. It’s only about 30 minutes from here.

“Yes, my king. If we find him, what are we going to do?” Mark asked.

“He’s coming with us. I can’t put this off much longer. Genevieve is due any day. He will know his part is soon.”
