After Reborn, I Chose the Dying Lycan King

I was Luna Celeste's omega mate in my last life. She sent me to Alpha Lucian's bed while she was pregnant. Every shewolf in the Silver Moon pack envied that Lucian loved his Luna more than anything. No one knew I was carrying his pup too. The night Celeste gave birth to her son, Lucian sent me away; he gave me to an old beta as his mate. I escaped the carriage. Then I fell off a cliff. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the night Celeste sent me to Lucian's bed. This time, I would climb into the dying Lichen King Kael's bed instead. I would carry the Lichen King's heir, and I would bury Lucian and Celeste with my own hands. The Moonlight Festival was being held at the Lichen King's Palace tonight. As Celeste's maid, I followed her to the Lichen Palace. Halfway through the celebration, Celeste fainted. The healers examined her and announced that she was carrying Lucian's pup. Lucian was overjoyed. He stayed beside her bed and told her sweet words. Lucian. I'm pregnant now. I won't be able to serve you the way I used to. You know I only love you, Celeste. Having you beside me is enough. Maris, step outside. I lowered my head and left the room after Celeste fell asleep. Lushing came out; his dark eyes swept over me. Celeste says you're obedient. Then he lifted my chin. Then do as she says. He released me and walked away. You slut, you wore that thin dress on purpose. You wanted Alphalucian to see you that neckline, that waist, that innocent face. Only whores dress like that. Ivy did not know that from the day Celeste suspected she was pregnant, she had been choosing my dresses as she wanted Lucian to notice me. Come in! I entered with Ivy. Maris, you've been with me for 13 years; you're the maid who has served me the longest. My lady, this slut tries to seduce the alpha. You should kill her. Ivy, Maris is a good girl; stop treating her like an enemy. Alpha Lucian has gone to the Lich King's private chamber, prepare yourself and go serve him tonight.

The royal steward came out of the chamber. You're from Silver Moon Pack? Yes. Alpha Lucian and the king are both drunk. Go in and serve them. Alpha Lucian will sleep in the side chamber tonight. I nodded and walked inside with him. Lucian was already drunk enough to be unconscious. The steward and I helped him into the side chamber. Before I left, I looked once at the lichen king. He was also drunk, and another maid was helping him toward his bedchamber. Then the young steward left, and I stayed in Lucian's chamber. I kept far away from Lucian and waited for the sounds outside. I heard. A beautiful shewolf ran with crying. After a long silence, I finally opened the door and slipped into Kael's bedroom. But Kael was not in his bed. I remembered something Lucian had mentioned in my last lifethe king liked to go to the Moon Garden, so I went there. Kael stood under an old silver tree, looking up at the night sky. When he heard me, he turned around. By then, I had already taken off my maid's clothes and worn a dress. I moved my body so he would see my curves and softness. "You are Lucian's maid," your highness. I am Luna Celeste's maid. Tonight, she sent me to serve Alpha Lucian, but I admire your highness. If I must give myself to someone. I only want to serve you. Just as I expected, Kael reached out and caught my waist. He pulled me into his arms. In the next second, his tall body pressed over mine. Oh, you think my dying body is better than Lucian's? Your highness, you are the most powerful wolf in this realm. In my sight, you are much better than Alpha Lucian. If Alpha Lucian could curse him as I died, but if your prince wanted my life, I would kneel and give it to you. Everyone is waiting for me to die so Lucian may have a chance to take the throne. Except me, your highness. You are the one and only. live in king. I used everything I had to tempt and please him. Maybe it was the wine. Kale was far more excited than I expected. Then he carried me back to his room and kept going until dawn. By the time the night was over, I could barely stand up. Who said the king was too frail to even get hard?

In my last life, it had happened exactly like this. I thought Celeste meant I would pour wine and prepare his bath. Instead, Lucian pinned me to the wet floor and took me by force. From that night on, whenever he wanted me, I had to undress. When Celeste was close to giving birth, the healer told me I was pregnant. Celeste promised that after my pup was born, she would give me a room. She told me not to tell Lucian that I was pregnant yet. I believed her words and waited for Celeste to give birth first. At least then, I would have a place, and my pup would not be born with nothing. Back then, I truly thought Celeste was kind to me. Once her pup was born, I would serve him with even more devotion. My child would only be a lowborn pup meant to support Celeste's heir. After Celeste gave birth, I waited happily for the promise she had made. But when Alpha Lucian came to see me, his first words broke my heart. Celeste gave me a hair and nearly died for it. For her sake, I cannot let you stay. You're too filthy. Please. Send her to the border. camp. Thinking of what happened in my last life, I clenched my fists. I have died once, so I can't let that happen again. I left Celeste's room and walked toward the Lichen King's chamber. Outside the doors, I heard two guards whisper. ing"The king and Alfa Lucian are drinking inside. Go tell the shewolves to prepare; whoever earns the Lichen King's favor tonight will depend on her own luck. "Rumor said the Lichen King's body had been ruined. Everyone wanted him to name Alfa Lucian as his heir. They seemed close as brothers, but the king had never given Lucian that title. The Lichen King was only twentyfive. As a young wolf, he had been brilliant and ruthless. In five years on the throne, he had destroyed four roads past, but a rebellion had damaged his body and soul. So everyone called him the Dying King. If I became the mistress of the Dying King, it would be better than dying as Lucian's secret.

Before dawn, I returned to Celeste's room. She was waiting for me. Where is Alfa Lucian? I knew she was afraid Lucian had touched someone else while drunk. Alfa Lucian is still asleep. My lady, please don't worry. Alfa Lucian slept in the side chamber without the king's order. No one dared to go in. Then I stepped closer to Celeste to let her see the marks on my neck. As expected, pain flashed through her eyes. Her fingers curled into tight fists. Miris, you are a good girl. I feel safe leaving Alpha to you. My lady, look at this dirty whore. Her dress is a mess, and her lips look like a man biting them. My lady. after years of serving Celeste, I knew one thing clearlyLucian never kissed Celeste like that. You filthy maid! How could you do this to Lady Celesta? She treated you like a sister and kept you by her side for 13 years, but you still climbed into Alpha Lucian's bed like a shameless whore. Alf, Lucian walked in. Ivy opened her mouth to complain. Celeste gave her one quick glance, and Ivy shut up at once. She still believed Lucian slept with me last night. Was it you who served me last night?

He didn't say a word, but pulled Celeste into his arms. "Celeste, you need rest. Let Maris help me dress before the council meeting. " "Yes," one tender word from Lucian was enough to make her blush. I followed Lucian into the dressing room and I helped him put on his council gown. Lucian brushed my hair away, then he saw the marks. It seems I was rough with you last night. I did not tell him that someone had served him last night; it just had not been me. Your Luna cannot serve me while she carries my pup. From now on, you must take good care of me. Alfeus, the council is waiting for you. I will come back to you later. After Lucian left, Celeste called me back into her room. My boots need cleaning. I looked at the silvertrimmed boots beneath her dress. Once, I washed them every night. Ivy brought over a basin of hot water. But before you touch Luna Celeste, wash the filthy scent off your hands. She grabbed my wrist and shoved me into the basin. The water was boiling, and silver powder burned like fire against my skin. I struggled hard, then the basin overturned and splashed across Celeste's feet. "You filthy maid! You think after climbing into Alphellucian's bed, you can step over Lady Celeste? " Several maids rushed in and saw the mask. "Marius, from now on, you do not have to serve me anymore. "After all, you are Alfa Lucian's woman now. He only wanted everyone to think I had become arrogant and ungrateful. My lady, do not worry; I will always be loyal to you. Everything she has come from me, and she has betrayed you. I knelt and bowed to Celeste. My lady will always be my mistress. I will obey every order you give me.
