Alpha's Second Chance

After nearly hundred and fifty years, the king died, even though the crown air did his very best to protect her. His mother, the Queen, was killed shortly after, and they never found out who did it.

After more than a hundred years of his father's strict and ruthless rule, the people hoped the new king would be more kind. But even though he didn't rule the kingdom just as strictly and cruelly as his parents had. His people weren't happy. Mates were forced to reject each other for various reasons. One wasn't a Lycan or the most common one. If a Lycan of wealth found a girl he wanted, he could take this girl as his wife, not caring if she had a mate. At the same time, he would keep his own mate and, like that, have two women to tend to any need he must have had. And when he grew tired of the girl, he could divorce her and send her back to her family, ruined and mate less.

When he, with time, found his mate and they had five beautiful children, four boys and a girl. He had never thought about how big problems his own daughter would cost him. She found her mate and fell deeply in love with him. But their relationship was illegal in her father's eyes because her mate was a wolf and not a lycan. He forbid her to be with him, but she defied him and accepted her fated mate, and consummated their matebond. When he threatened to kill her mate, they fled.

My Grandfather used to write his thoughts and feelings down. I am annoyed and concerned. My daughter, my beautiful little princess, is gone in the hands of that worthless wolf. But I will find them, and I will bring my daughter home and keep her from him even if I need to lock her in a secured room. Maybe my grandfather was on to something here. I feel so much better writing down my concerns. >

Oh my god, this Lycan was such an asshole. He didn't care about his daughter's feelings at all. He just wanted things to be the way he wanted. No matter the cost. I am a bit furious with this king. And maybe I should stop reading. But I want to know more. I read small notes that seem to have been collected from others Lycans. Some of them are arrogant, mostly wealthy men who think that the laws are perfect. And one says he had two girls and his mate. One he had taken by force because she was such beautiful rest only he should have her. Another note from him said that his favorite girl had killed herself.

I feel so sorry for how girls lived as nothing else than a tool to pleasure the men, and I know if Logan and I decide to do what the Moon-goddess wants us to do, we would not ever allow something like this. I was so busy reading the book I didn't notice when Logan came into the library. And I was shocked when he stood behind my chair, leaning down to kiss my cheek.

"Logan!" I gasp.

"Sorry, Baby, didn't mean to scare you. Must be an interesting book." He says, smiling.

"It is. It is hard to believe Lycans lived in the way they did. Even among themselves, they were horrible." I tell him.

"You can tell me about it later, it's way past lunchtime, and you have not eaten." And with those words, he makes me close the book And stand up from the comfy chair. I look at the chair, sad to leave it. And I hear Logan laughs.noveldrama

"I will get one moved upstairs to our room." He says, smiling, and we leave to go to the dining hall.

We eat a late lunch before Logan has to go back to work. And I wait for Rose to come back from the daycare so that she can help me find out how the nursery should look.
