The Lycan’s Rejected Mate: The Epilogue (Paranormal Wolf Shifter Romance Series Book 3)
The Lycan’s Rejected Mate: The Epilogue: Chapter 135

Anaiah’s POV

‘Where are we?’ I demand, crossing my arms against my chest.

‘Werebear castle, you are free to explore,’ He shrugs.

‘I’ll escape,’ I observe him.

‘No one can leave this castle or territory, there is a barrier,’ He says confidently. I sit on the bed and a sigh escapes my lips.

An hour later, I open the door to my room only to be blocked by two huge men, by their scents I can tell that one of them is a rogue and the other a werebear. Why would a bear work for its enemy?.

‘Ma’am,’ They bow to acknowledge me. I try to walk past them but they block my path.

‘I was told by Amacus that I can go wherever I want to in the castle,’ I growl. They share a glance before letting me pass, however, they follow me. The werebear castle is magnificent, however, unlike mine in the royal pack, it lacks a feeling of home. It is more like a modern museum. I descend the stairs when something catches my eyes on the wall. Huge portraits are hung up. They all have similar features and I stop on the youngest girl,

‘Princess Scarlett,’ She is beautiful with long red hair and mesmerizing brown eyes.

‘That is Princess Scarlett on her eighteenth birthday, my lady,’ The bear guards say, looking at the painting.

‘She’s beautiful,’

‘Indeed,’

I turn around to the guards and ask ‘ Where is she?’

‘In her chambers,’

‘Take me there, please,’

‘She is not allowed any visitors,’ The rogue grumbles, looking at me with disdain. I take a step closer to him, standing at my full height, and look him in the eyes.

‘I’m not a jailbird, and I’m here to do your boss a favor, so I demand you take me to her room immediately,’

The two men’s faces pale and they audibly gulp, nodding their heads and I smile.

‘Good,’

They guided me upstairs to the third floor,

‘Is this the room?’

They nod and I push it open, and enter, not far from the bed, a girl is sitting on the vanity table, brushing her hair most gently. I clear my throat to announce my arrival and she twists her neck towards me in the most elegant manner, almost in slow motion. Our eyes meet and she gets up from the chair, confusion written on her face as she tries to figure out who I am. She gasps and bows low to me.

‘Queen Anaiah,’

‘Princess Scarlett,’ I breathe, I look towards the guards and they step outside. Scarlett grabs my hand and directs me to sit on the bed.

‘Luna Queen, what are you doing here?’ Her voice is soft.

‘The Wizard brought me here,’ I say. The princess scowls, biting her bottom lip.

‘He’s been talking about it for a while now but I didn’t know he’d succeed,’ She faces the floor. ‘ He wants your power and I heard Agatha, mentioned it’s a dangerous spell that might kill,’

‘I won’t let him have it nor do I plan to die here,’ I say confidently, I don’t know how but I will leave this place and free the werebears from Amacus no matter what.

Princess Scarlett shares her plan with me and I must confess, I’m impressed that they are planning to fight back and take back their kingdom. They are in the process of hiding the elderly and children in safe places so that they won’t be harmed.

‘I have news for you, your brother is alive,’ She stands up and covers her mouth with her hand.

‘How? I was told he was one of the first people to die when Amacus attacked,’

‘I don’t know how but he’s in a coma. He came to us, asking for help,’ Tears stream down her face and I get up to wipe them for her.

‘Also… your mate is my brother,’ I inform her, hoping she will cheer up after dropping a bomb on her. I have her full attention and I hear her heart skip in excitement.

‘Wh- What?’ She is smiling now. I nod and sit back now.

‘What’s his name, how does he look like, is he a good man? Does-‘ She has all these questions. I laugh,

‘Easy there, I can only answer one question at a time,’ She inhales and exhales, sitting next to me.

‘What’s his name,’ She asks calmly.

‘Enrique… Enrique Altamirano and he has been searching for you,’

‘I never understood how we might have connected but now I might have an idea, he’s a gifted shifter… like you,’ She beams and I nod my head. I tell Scarlett everything she wants to know about Enrique and she is keen to meet him. Scarlett has been through a lot but has survived and is still a fighter, I embrace her when the door bursts open.

‘Having a girl’s party? What’s this, making a plan to overthrow the dark king?’
