Mated To The Lycan King

Chapter 15 

Dinner was very awkward and the air hung thick with fear and danger. It may be made up and my very own anxiety eating away in my head. Charlotte felt it to and she was a nervous ball of energy itching to be let out to calm herself, yet we were scared to go for a run alone. Soon, very soon I promised her in my head. 

There was hardly any line of communication between the two of them and Jameson and Amber were both fidgeting nervously in their chairs not looking up from their food. I watched everyone carefully and it was like I could feel their emotions. It felt like I was pushed up against a wall and I was being hammered with rubber balls, like the ones for when we played dodge ball in grade school. 

I cleared my throat to break the silence and not a single person looked up at me. I had, had enough of this energy “Okay so obviously whatever is going on is bad.” 

Eyes shot to me from all across the room. “Everything is fine?” Amber didn’t seem to convincing and I only rolled my eyes. 

“It is not I can feel everyone’s fear or nervousness. It’s like a thick suffocating blanket. I may not be part of the inner circle but I will be on Saturday and anything I can do to help.” 

“We are not allowed to discuss matters with you so let me stop you while you’re ahead.” King Randolphs voice was cold and his face was emotionless. I could tell whatever was going on put him on edge. 

The faint sound of clicking was heard and the door swung open. King Randolphs face changed in an instant as he stood and rushed over to the woman’s side who entered. They kissed and held one another in a long embrace and the air suddenly felt lighter. This must be Everests mother who had been on a 

mission to help women, the elderly and children ten hours away. 

Her eyes locked with mine and she had a warm loving feeling to her that reminded me of my own 

mother. I suddenly felt sad and missed her terribly. I wish she was here to see it. 

I saw people communicating silently and I went back to being annoyed. Suddenly bits and pieces of the conversation began to drift through my mind although it was hard to pin it to who it belonged to. It was almost muffled sounding. 

“Dexter, yes he is missing.” “Missing? Why is he missing?” 

“He left or fled his home with his own army.” “We need to discuss this privately.” 

“What about Avalynn should we include her??” 

“No.”
