Found by the Lycan King

Chapter 33

I stepped outside and heard the unmistakable sound of the wolves howling. What the fuck was going on?

I threw around a confused look and I saw they all had a dazed look on their faces. My beta and gamma had left the ball to leave a few guests and girls whose packs were quite far from my mansion.

I did not want anyone to get hurt so I instructed them to drop the ladies home safely. That left just me in the mansion. along with the servants and maids.

The wolves were howling and trying to trespass my front yard but when I showed up a few of them put their tails in between their legs and ran away.

All this while, I could also smell the scent wafting at me as the soft breeze carried it to me. My feet turned around automatically and I saw myself walking in the direction of the scent.

After five minutes, I was in the backyard looking around through the dark to ascertain the source.

And then I heard a noise, a soft whimper. My ears pricked and I immediately launched myself into the bushes.

When I parted the leaves, I saw Zenovia lying on the ground, twitching again.

When I reached her, she immediately got on her fours and the intensity of the scent hit me with full force.

Zenovia was in heat and that was the reason the wolves were all howling around the mansion.

‘Fuck” I cursed in my mind as I tried to make her get up.

“Zee, you cannot be here. I told you to stay inside the room, right?”

I asked but she was not in a condition to listen. “I am…I am sorry. I tried but…but I…this is too much..”

She tried to explain but was probably feeling too shy to speak those words out loud to me.

The wolves were drawn in by her scent as she was an unmated female and they wanted to mark her.

And I could not let that happen.

Not because I wanted to mark her but she was not ready yet. Her transformation had been incomplete and her body was probably in an overdrive.

I had not smelled such a strong scent of any unmated female before and I had been around plenty of females when they awakened their wolves.

Something was clearly wrong with her and her wolf. But now was not the time to make her understand that.

Zenovia’s eyes lit up with desire as she stared at me and crawled near my legs.

“I….I am not sure what is happening to me. I have this….this urge to…to…” She tried to speak and tugged at her hair, trying to explain her predicament to me. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

“To want to be claimed by a wolf. I understand” I said and I felt a slight tinge of relief flooding her eyes.

“I…I am sorry, I think I should stay away from you for tonight.” She said and got up from the ground.

But I stopped her, “Are you out of your mind? I know what you are going through. Your transition has been weird and your hormones are messing with you. Do you think I would let you go alone in the woods?”

However, Zenovia shook her head, “You don’t understand. 1…I am feeling things…odd things…..I should not be with you right now.”

She said as her eyes tried to hide the desire pooling in her eyes. And as much as I knew that it was her heat forcing her to feel all those things, I was happy that all of that was being subjected to me.

Ever since I had seen her, I was intrigued by her and now she had blossomed into a wolf…or at least starting to.

The wolves let out a howl outside again and I did not wait for her to respond. I simply pulled her close and threw her on my shoulder as I began walking inside..

On the way I instructed the servants to keep all the doors and windows perfectly locked so that no intruder would slip in.

After that, I walked back upstairs as she tried to get off my hold. And the fact that her scent was even closer to my face, making me lose my restraint was killing me.

I coiled my hands into fists as I climbed up the last flight of stairs and threw the door open with my foot.

I placed her on the bed and meant to close the door but she was beside me in an instant. Her wolf was showing up in flickers of random outbursts I guessed.

“Please, I.I can’t control myself. This is driving me mad. D–do you have something to put me to sleep?”

She asked but I knew the answer to that. Even if I did put her to sleep, her body will keep releasing the scent and the wolves would try to break in.

There was only one way to save her from the wolves. I either had to find out her mate and throw him in her face or I had to mark her myself.

When I would mark her or her mate would do that, she would no longer be an ‘available‘ female. An alpha’s mark worked as well as the mate’s mark.

But the problem was that I did not want her to wake up tomorrow and regret this decision. So, I nodded, “Fine, I will find you a sleeping pill”

I began walking outside but she pulled me close again. “Please, can you not leave me alone tonight? I feel anxious and

nervous.”

“Sure, I will return with the pill shortly,” I said and walked out. When I returned she had changed into a nightgown.

My heart ached a bit to know that she was no longer dressed in just my coat but I did not show it.

Zenovia begged me to help her and as much as I did not want her to think I was taking advantage of her situation, I could not say no to her innocent face.

I was not even sure if she realized her scent was mouth watering and staying near her but not doing anything to calm Beast

would drive me nuts.

She looked perplexed with her hormones driving her crazy while her rational brain not wanting to just give in to the desire and just let anyone mark her.

Yeah, it seemed like she had more restraint and resolve than I did. I let out a sigh and pulled her into a hug as she whispered.

“The wolves…their howling…it feels as if they are standing just next to me. My senses are exploding too.”

She spoke as she buried her face in my shirt. Yeah, I had forgotten that. She was also going through a sensory overload.

Usually, the females go in heat a little late but since she was a late bloomer, I think everything was happening to her at

once.

Zenovia was afraid and she looked at me with uncertain eyes. I held her face in my hands and cupped her innocent face.

“Yeah, just know that all of this is part of what you are now. You are a werewolf, just like us. You are no ordinary wolfless girl.”

I smiled at her and she gave me a radiant smile while trying to not sob.

“Thank you. You are a very well–built lycan as well” She said, trying to hide her blush. And Beast growled low in the back of my head.

“She is complimenting me. I want to meet her” He insisted but I only glared at him.

“Shut up”

Thankfully, he went quiet.

And I slowly guided her to bed. “I think you need some rest. Get some sleep and you will feel better tomorrow”

She nodded her head and got in the bed while I pulled on the sheets.

“C–can I ask you to..?” she felt shy again and I saw the blush rise up her cheeks.

“Ask me what Zee?” I asked and she spoke after a lot of hesitation.

“Can you like…put me to sleep. It felt nice to be in your embrace.”

She answered truthfully and her innocence was driving me mad. It was also getting harder to imagine just lying in bed with her given the way her scent was still making me hard.

But I took a deep breath to remind myself to not screw this up. Zenovia was always yelling at me and doubting me so I needed to show her that I was under control and I was not going to take advantage of her.

Then she would trust me and maybe we would start working on the anchor part.

I nodded, “Sure” and got into bed with her. She immediately curled up in a ball and scooted closer to me.

Her long silky hair spilled over my shoulders as she raised her head to place it on my chest.

I felt oddly content and peaceful, having her beside me. I had had a few girls share a bed with me when I was reckless and young but the contentment always came after I had fucked them.

This was different. She was just lying beside me, assured that I would never hurt her or take advantage of her..

And God, I wanted so badly to kiss her, to just get a taste of her so that I could keep functioning.

Zenovia looked up at me, her lips inches away from mine, and then asked, “Do you hate me?”

What an absurd question! How could I hate her?

“Not at all, go to sleep, Zee,” I said trying to run my hands over her back but then she pulled me down and my lips crashed on hers.

“Then please claim me”
