The Lycan’s Contract Mate

I watched Arielyn talk and laugh with some women who were at the cookout, some of whom were her brothers’ wives and their friends. We were at a cookout that her older brother was hosting at her family’s resort. I looked at their fingers and realized she was the only one not wearing a ring, I knew it was time to fix that. The past seven months have been nothing but blissful for me. Arielyn was and is the best thing that ever happened to me, I couldn’t stay away from her for long, I took her everywhere with me and she willingly followed me even though she sometimes had to work, I made sure our schedules never crashed to the extent of me going away without her, the only time I traveled without her had been hell so I ended up sending my jet to go get her. she talked about me being too obsessed with her and I accepted it whole-heartedly and told her I was making up for all the times we couldn’t be together because I had been blinded, if Veronica had not done what she did to me, I would have found Ari earlier and she would not have had to spend eight years alone. She was mine from the beginning, mine. Never was she met for Jordan, he never had her, never deserved her. Because she was meant to be mine, we were able to find each other even though it took eight long years.

Jordan, that bastard, after I made up with Arielyn, our father had requested to see us. He made us tell him everything that had been happening after he saw the bruises on Jordan’s face. I didn’t say anything but Jordan was the one that spilled everything and even had the mind to try and blame me. That’s when I finally spoke. Father had told us to put everything behind us and focus on the future, he told Jordan that he needed to respect me as his future king and older brother and Jordan had grudgingly left.

Jordan surprised me because after the meeting we had with my dad, he stopped fooling, I don’t know if he was just acting and would soon return to his annoying self but I was just glad I could get some quiet from him, the twins joked about him giving up after taking so many loses from me, according to them, it would have been stupid and pointless to continue fighting when he already lost, we still don’t talk or get along, we just respect each other’s space when we see each which doesn’t happen a lot. I never heard or saw Veronica after that day at Jordan’s house, which was a good thing because I never want a repeat of what happened because her coming back caused me so much pain and made me almost lose the only one for me.

My mom finally decided to move to O-when, in her words, she wanted to be closer to me and help raise the kids Arielyn and I would have, she was already doing a good job with Raul who adored her. Raul has been a good kid, he already went back to school and was doing fine so far, he seemed to have gotten over what happened, mom and Arielyn played a major role in that, they were besties, and always hung together which sometimes makes me jealous so I tend to tag along a lot. Overall, everyone was doing so well and my life was moving smoothly, I was slowly getting the hang of being the alpha king’s right-hand man and even though the coronation was still a year and a few months away, plans were already in place. My father was doing a great job with preparing me for my rein and not going to lie, I liked being with him. He wasn’t the hard man that I had thought him to be, he was more caring and attentive than he let on which led me to believe what he had said when he said he always wanted me to be his successor. When I asked him why he had us compete against each other, he said he did it because he wanted to see how determined I was because he knew Jordan wasn’t really the competition. According to him, my competition was me, he wanted me to know I could get anything I wanted if I was determined to and that that had been my first lesson. I did tell him that his greed was also one of the reasons he had asked for the Orient and he didn’t deny it which made me respect him even more.

I returned my attention to the present and I almost burst out laughing when a heavy-looking Win-rose walked out of the house, she was due soon and looked like she would pop, I watched as Arielyn ran to her side and offered to help her, I couldn’t help picturing my beautiful woman heavy with our child soon, I wanted it so much but I was willing to wait until my baby was ready for a baby because it was all her choice and I don’t mind waiting for her to be ready.

“You are drooling,”

I heard her older brother, Aiden, say, I turned to him, not even the slightest bit embarrassed that I was caught staring at his sister and thinking about putting a baby inside her.

“I love her,”

I told him and he nodded.

“I know, I have seen you both together for months, I know,”

He replied.

“When are you going to ask her?”

He asked. I knew what he was asking as I had been thinking about it earlier too.

“Soon, very soon, not long now,”

“That’s good to know, I know my sister is in good hands with you, my family and I have a lot to make up for where she is concerned and I am glad we don’t have to fight the one she chose to love,”

He commented.
