A Mate For The Last Lycan
Chapter 144: THE MARK

Chapter 144: THE MARK

The money was a lot and it would be enough to cover his journey and give his brother a nice place to stay, but he hated the fact that the alpha was right that he wouldn’t be able to hide his brother. He was going to find him anyway.

"Do you like it in Greywolf pack?" Lucas asked his brother. "Did they treat you well?"

Rian nodded his head vigorously. "Yes!" He then started to tell his brother how well they treated him. He would always go to the bed with full stomach and how he loved to play with the twin. He finally had friends that wouldn’t mock him for his disability.

As you could see, he was a little bit limping when he walked, because his legs were beaten when he was three years old and his left leg bent to weird angle, kids around his age would mock him for his strange way of walking. Rian didn’t have friend because they were more interested to laugh at him, instead of laughing with him.

"The twins said that I am their friend." Rian then added. "And there was also an old woman named Nania, she was very kind, she gave me candies and extra cakes because she said I am too skinny."

Lucas might cuss Khaos out for kidnapping his little brother, but from the look of it, Rian was having good time and they treated him well, they took care of him.

And his little brother was his soft spot.

"I am sad because I have to leave the pack, but I am happy because I meet you." Rian was told that he was going to meet with his older brother, that was why he left the pack.

"Do you want to go back to that pack again?" Lucas was upset, but he thought if that annoying lycan wanted to use him, there was nothing wrong to use his resources, right?

"Yes!" Rian’s eyes lit up. "The warriors there have been making a tree house and I want to see that."

It was not an easy decision for Lucas, though he knew it was for the best. "Fine. Let’s go back to that pack." After all, he would come across the pack on his way to Wolfdale kingdom.

"Really?!" Rian asked enthusiastically, he was beaming when he hugged his brother. "Let’s go! Let’s go! I missed my friends!" He was so eager to go back to ’be kidnapped’.

Zuri was in and out of consciousness, she would see her mother, Xaden or her father when she opened her eyes. She would hear voices in her head, getting louder and louder, but there was a moment where they were quieted down and she found herself was in Khaos’s arms.

She didn’t know whether it was real or it was only her crazy imagination, her stupid hallucination that played trick on her, but she wanted to relish the moment she had with him, even if it was only in her head.

Only on the fourth day that Zuri had clear mind.

She remembered to wake up to his scent, he was hugging her, her head was pressed against his chest, while out there the snow piled up on the windowsill and everything looked so white, which reminded her of Khaos’s white beast.

She had a new favorite color now, it was white. Grey and white. It was a good combination.

The room was rather cold because the fire had been put off, but Zuri felt warm because somehow, the lycan’s body heat was hotter than the werewolf. She snuggled against his chest and this stirred Khaos awake.

The alpha opened his eyes and stared at her for a while. He didn’t avoid her when she kissed him on the chin. Zuri pulled away and waited for Khaos’s reaction, but when he didn’t seem mad for the kiss, she kissed his lips this time.

They stayed like that for a while, until both of them were panting, but like usual, Khaos didn’t take thing further. In the end, Zuri rested her head against his chest, staring at the window, watching the snow fell, while she enjoyed Khaos’s touch, as he played with her hair.

There was no word exchanged between them. They said nothing, but they felt fulfilled.

"It will leave scars," Khaos suddenly said, he raised Zuri’s hand and showed the burning scar on her wrist. Zuri almost forgot about this. "Glenda has made concoction to make the scars fade."

’I told you to take a good care of yourself. A man will not like it if their woman has a scar. That’s disgusting.’

Zuri heard her mother’s voice in her head and she closed her eyes tightly, as if by doing so, she would be able to get rid of it.

"Will you not like me if I have a scar?" Zuri asked, she wanted to hear Khaos’s voice, instead of the voices in her head. It would be nice if she could hear his voice in her head.

Khaos didn’t answer Zuri immediately and this made her anxious. She lifted her head and looked at him.

"There is this sentence in the scriptures that I read."

She thought, Khaos was talking about different thing and this made Zuri disappointed. She bit her lip and felt insecure with her scars. They looked even uglier now. She wanted to skin the burn, probably this could get rid of the scar and her healing ability would eventually heal the wound.

"The mark that the lycan left on you will follow you to the afterlife, so you will meet again in another." Khaos raised her hand and looked at the burnt mark that circled her wrist, as if it was a bracelet. "When we died and there is nothing left of us in this lifetime, a lycan will be able to find their mate again in another."

"I like that." Zuri felt better with whatever myth the lycan had in their scriptures. They had an interesting belief.
