Mated To The Lycan King

Chapter 38 

When we rounded the corner I couldn’t believe what I saw. Two children, one carrying a small teddy bear, and in footed dirty pj’s, wandering out in the street. The other had on shorts and a slashed t-shirt, he was a few years older than the other it appeared. I instantly shifted to my human form, showing them I mean them no harm. They stood frozen in fear at the group of Lycans behind me. I gave my warriors a small signal to stand down and they took a few steps away. They gave me the space I needed to be able to have a safe conversation with the children. We didn’t want to scare them off and not be able to get them the help they very obviously needed. 

“Hello little ones.” I spoke softly to them. “Are you hurt?” I asked them both. There was dried blood on their face and on their clothes they wore. I honestky couldn’t tell by looking at them if their tattered clothing had their blood or someone else’s blood on them. They both shook their head, but when they moved I could see wounds that were slowly healing. Being young children they didn’t have the aggressive healing trait triggered yet. 

“My brother is. My big brother is hurt. We, we, left him behind to get a bandaide. He can’t get up to walk so we left to find it for him. He said he needed a big big bandaid. We can’t find him one though.” The older of the two told me. 

“Your big brother? Can you take me to him, please? We have a medical staff and medical supplies to help him. I am positive we have just what he needs.” I told them both. He nodded and turned around and began walking very carefully in the direction of where I assume his older brother was located. “I can take you. I remember the way.” He said confidently. 

“Who are you?” He looked over at me, his hand was tightly holding onto his younger siblings hand, afraid to let him go. I honestly couldn’t blame him, he has been through the absolute worst. 

“My name is Avalynn. I am the mate to King Everest.” I responded to him and he stopped walking, turning to get a better look at me. 

“So, you’re the Queen? Oh my Goddess Bryan. Look she is here to help us!” I felt excitement in his voice as he walked faster. I could feel the hope growing in them both. We reached a broken house that had a large crack going through it and the roof was also partially caved in. The front door was busted in and I could smell blood, lots of blood. We walked inside and looked around the broken home. 

“Bubba. We are back. The Queen is with us. She is here to help, help you!” He walked in calling out to his brother and I followed him inside. As we approached a young teen, maybe fifteen or sixteen, he laid on the ground with a pool of blood surrounding him. He had deep wounds all over his body, and something tied around his arm, coated in blood. I realized that his arm was ripped from his body and my hands went to my mouth out of shock. I could not believe what I was actually seeing. The young boys eyes landed to me and a small smile was on his face. 

He struggled to breathe and I turned around screaming for the medical team to get in the home quickly. “We need the medical team in here now! Hurry, we do not have time to waste!” I ordered them. 

The medical team charged in and I took the hands of the younger siblings and passed them off to Amber. She stood at the door opening smiling to them both and squatted to their level. 

“This is Amber, she is my very good friend and she is super nice! She is going to make sure you get some food in you and some water and whatever else you want you can have. We will make sure you both get cleaned up and then we will check you for any wounds.” || smiled at them and they hugged me tightly. 

“Thank you for rescuing us.” He said softly. “Is my brother going to be okay?” 

I thought for a moment, searching for the right words that he could unserstand. I knew that I couldn’t lie to him and give him false hope so the truth would have to do. “Our medical team will do absolutely everything in their power to save his life. They will work very hard, I will make sure that they do everything they can.”

tears threatened to spill down my cheeks. My voice broke as I spoke, “I am not sure. I told him he would have to so he could get the King and Queens medal of honor and sacrifice. He saved his younger siblings. How are they?” I looked around for them and saw them sitting on the tailgate of a random truck eating.
