Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

"Hey," she heard a soft, feminine voice and she immediately recognised the voice. It had been ages since she had longed to hear it and she finally could. It was a miracle! 

She opens her eyes but they closed on the road again as she had no strength. But the voice that she had just had provided her with enough energy that she could hold onto it for a second longer as she opened her eyes and saw her lifeline.

"Mama?" she breathed out the word after a long time, blinking repeatedly she made sure that it was her. "Mama, please. . ." her vision went blank. Why were her eyes not opening? She had to see her mum!

She tried to hold on to them but nothing was seen by her as she opened her eyes. It was all dark and blank. It was as if she was in between two worlds and just in limbo.

"It's not your time bub," she heard her mum chuckle. "It's not your time for a long time." She drifted off somewhere.

She had been constantly waking up and out of consciousness. It was normal, the doctors said but the father was still dubious of how right they were. He came to the hospital as he left everything from work and watched the nurse go in and out and finally then, the doctor did too.

"She is alright," he said but the father in was not satisfied, "The dog bit her quite hard and tore the skin off too, he got the bone as well. It's going to take a lot of patience and therapy for her to get back on track, not exactly where she was but on a new journey. We can talk about the rest in my cabin."

And they did.

But watching his daughter cry out in her sleep was horrifying. She whimpered and she trashed. They had to restrain her to the bed. She was reopening the stitches and was risking the infections so Jason gave his consent to tie her down. She thrashed around but now at least the wounds were not opening the healing was not being interrupted in between.

It has been a continuous process before he went gave in and allowed them to tie her down to the bed. Every time she moves it right to scratch something and eventually the stitches in her leg over dark. It was scary for him to watch the doctors operated on her again and sealed it back shut.

He patted her hair. They were dirty and he knew that his daughter would hate it but he had no other option than to let the nurses take care of her. He would hurt her more. His hands were rough and new to this and it felt like it was just the time when she was born.

He needed Serena here. She was the one to guide him through that period and he needed her desperately to tell him what to do. His daughter was in immense pain and got knew what she was suffering from in her dreams. All he could do was watched her like a pathetic father who had nothing in his hands.

*********

She could feel the brightness even without opening her eyes making her cringe a bit. Immediately, she didn't know how but the curtains were drawn and she relaxed. She then focused on opening her eyes, unlike the previous times, she felt more awake and her eyes burned as soon as she opened them as if waking up from a long sleep. How long had she been asleep?

"Darling?" she heard heart father as soon as she saw the ceiling. Her eyes moved to the man sitting on her right. She raised her hand and he immediately held onto it. He kissed her knuckled and even with her blurry eyes, she could see the moisture building up in his eyes. "Water?" he asked to which she nodded. Her throat felt like sandpaper.

A straw was brought to her lips and she sucked on it to her heart's content.

"Hi," she greeted him back with a much better and less croaked voice. It hurt to talk which made her wonder that how long has it been since she had last woken up.

'Hello babe." He replied with a teary smile and sniffed. Her waking up was the best feeling thought this hard time. "Wait for a minute honey, I'll go and call the doctor." Saying so, he stood up and walked out of the room and came back with a nurse. His shoulders what tense as he was ready for his daughter to thrash out of forest sleep again. He had not gotten his hopes up regarding it and she should take the rest as long as she needed.

She should heal, he prayed as he watched the nurse walk to his daughter.

"Hey, there sweetie," she greeted and asked Adeline a few questions and fiddled around with the equipment which Adeline did not understand. In the end, it was concluded that she was fine and she could go on with her day and also, she could be taken home after two to three days if they wanted but they would have to come in for weekly visits.

Her bed was angled up and now she was being fed soup that thankfully her father had made. It was reliving from the soup at the hospital. She was given her phone and she was looking through Noah's messages. He had left her those in a hurry.

'U shld leave wen you c the chance. Lave in broad daylght it wold be btter.'

He should, she nodded to herself as she thought that both of them need to get out now. She no longer felt safe in this town.

'I need to go way 2. I think they saw me and I shold lave town for a while. [email protected] I killed a wolf and Im sure that they r going to kill me. I think they could come for you too. Thy must have smelled your blood.'

Her blood? A shiver went up to her spine and she realised that her blood was indeed there so the wolves could come back to her and it was obvious that where there was one, there were going to be more.

They would be coming to kill her and she could nothing about it other than running away as her companion did. Shit, she closed her eyes. This possibility had not been considered by her and the only thing that she could think about it was running away instead of facing it bravely.

It had been a day and Xavier had not even come to visit her and now he was the last thing on her mind. She had somehow expected him to come to see her with a flower bouquet in his hands or at least some chocolates after all it was his community that had caused her harm but there was no sign of him.

Because of h now he was the last thing on her mind. The first was to save herself and her father.

In a mansion that was the biggest of them all yet a fraction of the royal palace they stayed in, Cassandra anxiously waited by the entrance of the house. Xavier had gone to manure from her flower shop and that was hours ago. That was around seven in the morning and now; it was seven in the evening.

She was worried now. Show her son was irresponsible and at times she could get carried away by hanging out with his friends instead of getting what she wanted but it was never exceeding hours at a time. 

For the past twelve hours, there had been no calls, texts or even seeing the messages from his side. Nothing confirmed that he was safe her mommy sense did not like It in one bit. Now, she was really worried.

Especially the fact that her instincts were picking up people around her. No one, even a wolf much less of a human, dared to enter the property without permission. So who was it that she was sensing? As much as she tried to focus on with her senses she knew that she was picking up something but what she had no idea about.

Not taking a chance and waiting anymore, she called her husband immediately. From this realm to the one there, messages could be given and expected to be reached to the person in record time and for royal, it was done immediately. It was more important than everything, her son might be in danger. 

"Harold!" she breathed heavily and the man picked up on the nerves of the woman. "Tell my husband that Xavier is missing and to come immediately and not alone!" she commanded. "Hurry, hurry! Go!" she hissed. Her ears picked the sounds of someone coming closer.

Her fear picked even make when the doors opened and she had remembered to lock them shut. She gulped.
