The Lycan’s Contract Mate

Kendrix

“What did you do? What kind of spell did you cast on me, Veronica? Tell me right now,”

I yelled at her.

“Well, I made you think we were mates and killed all your ability to find your real mate, made you think you were in love with me,”

I couldn’t believe it.

“You are lying, right? You are making things up?”

I asked, I refused to believe this woman had been up to no good from the moment I met her.

“I am not lying, I tried to break the spell but I couldn’t do it, I had to leave because I hated the sight of you and hated having to pretend that I liked you every day, it wouldn’t have been bad if you were in line for the throne but you were just some loser,”

I was too dumbfounded by her revelations, I couldn’t speak for a moment, I was lied to for years, bewitched and I didn’t even know it, how did I not see it, how did I fall so easily for her trap, the fact that she had not even been on to me, she made a mistake and ended up with me, it just didn’t make sense that she had such powers.

“How can you do things like that?”

I asked, there is no way her being a vampire made her so powerful.

“My grandmother was a witch, I lived with her and mastered witchcraft, I know a lot of spells and used one on you, that was before I found out you were the king’s illegitimate son,”

She revealed, I still couldn’t believe everything I was hearing, I felt like I was having a weird dream.

“What other things have you done to me? How could you do something like that? How could you deceive me?”

I yelled at her.

“Chill brother, you are the only one who is all worked up here, why are you yelling so much?”

Jordan asked, I turned to him, he seemed to have recovered from the beating he got earlier.

“No, don’t you dare hit me again,”

He said even before I thought about it. I glared at him.

“If you don’t want me to remove that mouth of yours, better shut it,”

I said turning back to Veronica.

“What else did you do to me? Answer me!”

I yelled at her.

“Nothing, okay? I didn’t do any other thing; you don’t get it? Nothing else worked, after the spell I cast on you, I lost the ability to cast any other spell, that’s why I couldn’t break the spell when I found out you weren’t the one I wanted, I tried everything to end it but nothing worked, I found out a little too late that I broke a rule while casting the spell and the penalty for that was that I lost my ability to do any other thing, it made me hate you even more, I just couldn’t stand you and you always wanted to be lovey-dovey with me, you made me cringe, I had to leave,”

She revealed, I opened my mouth and closed it multiple times as I remembered all the times we spent together and how I showered her with love, I couldn’t recall a single moment when she looked or acted uncomfortable, she was such a good actor.

“Why? If I met Arielyn and the spell broke, wouldn’t that be a good thing for you? Why did you have to come back and ruin my life?”

I questioned. I refused to think about the implications of what I just learned, if everything Veronica said were true, then, Arielyn was really my mate but I didn’t know, I couldn’t tell because Veronica made it impossible for me to tell, It just didn’t make any sense to me.

“You were happy, I couldn’t let that happen,”

“What the fuck is that supposed to mean?”

I yelled at her.

“You were supposed to love me forever, when I couldn’t break the spell, I left but I knew you would pin for me forever so you would never find someone else, it worked for eight years but then I met Jordan and he told me you found someone else and you were happy, I didn’t believe him at first because I knew what I did; plus I checked up on you once in a while and you remained single for eight years, then he showed me a picture of the two of you together and then told me she was your mate, I got angry, I couldn’t do the things I wanted anymore because I lost my powers, but you get to be free from the spell? I couldn’t stand that, I had to do something and Jordan offered to help,”

She explained, with everything I had heard so far, I wasn’t so surprised.

“Is that how you knew I was in Dilgem?”

I asked.

“I made it possible for you to be in Dilgem,”

She revealed; just when I thought she couldn’t shock me anymore.

“What do you mean by that? I went to Dilgem because my business had an issue,”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Yes, I made that happen, I found out you owned a winery in Dilgem, visited the vineyard you just got, and polluted it, it worked because you showed up a few weeks later,”

She did so much just to get back at me and I foolishly fell for all her traps, I felt light-headed.

“You did all these, just to get back at me for trying to be happy again? you faked your death so that I would forget you because you charmed me and I wasn’t the one you targeted, eight years and then you came back when I finally found someone else just to ruin it? Make it make sense Veronica, make it make sense,”

I yelled at her.

“And you keep saying the whole reason you did what you did was to get the heir, well, has he told you that I am the heir? If he hasn’t then I will let you know by my own mouth, I am the future king of Otano,”

I told her and watched her eyes widen in shock, Jordan didn’t tell her, she turned to Jordan who was still nursing his bleeding face, I realized now that they fit each other, they were both horrible.

“You lied to me?”

“I didn’t lie, I am going to be king,”

Jordan lied.

“We both know that’s a lie Jordan, I will tell you the details that he didn’t bother to tell you; before I met with you yesterday, I went to see my father and he said it with his mouth that I am next in line for the throne, he was never the heir, so whatever you did just know you wasted your time with a loser, what am I even saying? The both of you are losers,”

I pointed at both of them as I spoke.

“You lied to me? How could you? You mean I wasted my time for nothing? What the fuck Jordan?”

It was Veronica’s turn to yell.

“Shut the fuck up bitch, you are not the one to speak, did you really think that I would have made you, my queen? You are nothing to me,”

Jordan yelled back at her, I decided I had had enough, they weren’t my problem, I had other things to do, much more important things, I needed to find Arielyn and beg for he forgiveness. I turned around and walked away while they both argued loudly, I walked to my car in a daze, I spent the last eight years of my life bewitched and I didn’t even know, I met the one for me and didn’t know, I had her with me and she knew, she told me but I told her she was mistaken. As I drove home, I went over what happened since I met Arielyn, from the moment I first saw her, to when we had met at the club, I should have known, my wolf had been the first to be drawn to her, he knew but I shut him up, he knew and kept calling her ours but I shut him up and have had him locked in for a while now.

“Figured?”

“Yeah, a little too late,”

I whispered. I turned my car and drove towards her father’s house, it couldn’t be too late, there had to be a way to fix things, I knew the only place she would be at would be her dad’s place because her best friend wasn’t around.
