Offered to the Lycan King by Misha K
Chapter 9
When River had left, Brianna was panicky at first. She was sitting in the balcony and reading a fashion magazine. She was too afraid to enter the room for the fear that Lena was there. Lena had never shown her aggressiveness in the school or at home, but the way she attacked her was more than enough to scare the life out of Brianna. She had called her mother and related the news to her. Hazel had asked her to be quiet about it because Lena’s father was a respectful warrior in Alpha Maxim’s army. Besides, it was only a matter of a few hours.
It was after an hour that Brianna dared to enter the room. River wasn’t inside. She sniffed the air but it had a faint smell of her sister. It should have been stronger, because that meant she was in here. Dreading, she opened the bathroom but River wasn’t there either. Full blown panic bubbled i*nside her. She rushed out of the room only to find two guards who stared at her with a growl.
She closed the door with a loud bang, feeling extremely scared of what was going to happen next. Alpha Maxim would simply k*ill her for not taking care of one small thing he had asked her to take care of. Blood drained from her face and she sat with a thud on a chair. “F*uck. F*uck. F*uck.” She cursed River. “What do I do?”
Suddenly, an idea came to her. What if she went instead of River with the Lycan King? That thought was enough to send a rapture down her b*ody and liquid heat pooled in her belly. The Lycan King, Hunter was gorgeous. He was so stunning that when he stood in the main hall, it was as if the whole earth gravitated towards him and he was unaware of his charming personality. She was jealous of River that she was being offered to the king, when it should have been her.

Brianna knew that she was more beautiful than her sister. River was so skinny. And she was curvy. River’s hair was flame red which was odd, but hers was a beautiful sunshine blond. River was not acknowledged by Hector and was an abomination to the werewolf community whereas she was a full-blooded wolf. Yes, Brianna knew that she was superior to River in every manner.
Initially when Lena had mentioned that Veil was dangerous, Brianna was scared. However, after seeing Alpha Hunter her opinion changed. Instantly. His clothes screamed of wealth. And how could a man be so handsome? She was ready to be with Hunter, if he wanted it. In fact, she was planning to ask him if she could accompany her sister or visit her soon. If not Hunter, there would be other rich Lycans for her.
She chuckled when the solution to this problem was right in front of her eyes. So, she waited for Alpha Hunter to call River in the evening. She was ready with her plans.
When Elijah and Asher came to the room to ask about River, she was surprised. But she dutifully informed them that River had escaped. She slouched her shoulders and made a droopy face. “I am so sorry to inform you that my sister, River, has escaped. I am so ashamed of her. She has put us through so many embarrassing situations, but this one fades them all. She had always been a trouble-maker.” She wiped the tears that had pooled in her eyes. “I didn’t know that she would run away and put Alpha Maxim in so much jeopardy.”
“Why didn’t you inform Alpha Maxim,” Elijah asked in a cold voice.
Brianna gulped at his coldness. “I was afraid that he would k*ill me,” she said in a trembling voice, sinking on the floor. Then she looked at them with doe eyes. “Please don’t tell him about it. He would send his warriors to find River and make sure that she is k*illed for the defame she would bring on our pack. Even though she had behaved terribly with us in the past, I really can’t put her in a dangerous situation.”
There was worry written all over the faces of Lycans. Taking advantage of the situation, she said, “But I also have a solution to this problem.”
“Which is?” Asher asked, clearly displeased.
Brianna lowered her face with her l*ips downturned and in a very low voice said, “I can offer myself to your Alpha. I can sacrifice myself. I promise that I will go with you, if you allow it. I am ready to bear the repercussions of my sister’s escape. I will take her place and sacrifice myself for the sake of the Crescent Moon pack, and for the sake of Alpha Hunter’s happiness.” She clasped her h*ands in front of her to plead with them. “I will do everything in my power to salvage the situation.” With the back of her h*and she wiped her tears that she was forced to roll out and then glanced at the bridal dress that River had abandoned.
Elijah and Asher looked at the bridal dress and then each other. There was tension in the air.
“Stay here,” said Elijah. “And don’t get out. We will be back soon.”
Brianna nodded vehemently. As soon as they were out, she let out a little whoop of joy. Excited that the two Lycans had taken the bait, she went to the bathroom and took a bath. Then she came out and wore the bridal dress. She gazed at her reflection in the mirror and imagined the Lycan King beside her. Tipping her chin up, she said, “You foolish b*itch! Go as far as you can and never come back.”
Brianna didn’t even call her parents for the fear that they might ruin her plans. When they would discover what she did, they would be very sad, but who cared. She was going to get all the riches of the world. Finally, she sat on the bed and waited for her king to come to her.
As the afternoon gave way to evening, her excitement increased.
A soft knock on the door made her jump with a squeal. She ran to open it. She calmed herself and then opened the door and stared right into the face of River. “You?”
