Their Lycan Queen by Foxtail Novel Read Online

Chapter 28 

Noras POV 

Well, let’s just say that pancakes with maple syrup are one of my new favorites even though Dave told me they are usually served for breakfast. I don’t care, they are delicious, the pancakes were so fluffy that they melted in my mouth and the maple syrup was sweet but not too sweet, yummy. 

When I had eaten three portions I and my mates along with Daniel walked outside to the backyard of the castle where the others were waiting. Oh da mn I got an audience, now I’m nervous. 

The king, Dave, William, Ben, Daniel, Andrei, Gray, Linus and Tristan were all waiting there with a rogue lycan on the ground. I recognized the lycan, it was the same that kidnapped me, I looked at Ares and Helios. 

“We didn’t choose him but I guess father did but Nora, just so you know this lycan is Linus’ father” Helios said. 

I looked at him with surprise and then I looked back to Linus and I could see that he was nervous and worried and I just nodded. 

We walked over to them and I dropped to my knees in front of Linus’ father’s lycan. He looked at me but didn’t do anything so I slowly reached my hands up and touched his head. 

I felt for Artemis and she came forward in a matter of seconds. 

*Let’s heal him then* 

I was sucked into his memories without hesitation and the first thing I 

saw was a very small Linus. He could have been one year old and they celebrated his birthday, it was so different from what I was used to. Balloons and candles, presents and bright and colorful colors 

everywhere. I got a bit jealous by all of it and I hoped I would get the same one day. 

I watched as Linus clapped his hands in joy when a woman came in suddenly and I smiled because I thought it was Linus’ mother but the room got quiet and I wondered why. Linus’ father seemed furious when the mother came in but she just smiled and hugged Linus before she did something that made me scream. 

I jumped backwards and released Linus’ father and I shook like a leaf when I looked at him and he looked down on the grass in shame. I stared at him, I couldn’t believe what I just saw but I knew it was true. Linus’ mother abused him from the very start, it didn’t matter how old Linus was, she punched him and kicked him whenever she could and Linus’ father couldn’t stop her. 

The law forbade him, the very same law that said never to hurt your mate or your children. If Linus’ father had hurt his mate in an attempt to save Linus, they both would have been killed and Linus would have no one of his parents left. He would have grown up like an orphan. Stu pid laws. 

I collected myself again and this time I just touched Linus’ father’s hand and dived into his memories again. This time Linus was maybe five or six years old and his mother had just stabbed him with a knife in his leg. She watched as he healed and then she stabbed him again and again. 

“I know I should have stopped her but she was my mate and the law forbade me from doing anything.” Linus’ father said and I nodded with tears in my eyes. 

“I will change that law someday” I whisper and he nods. 

“Yes, please do that, you will help a lot of children that way” 

Are there more children with abusive parents in this pack? I need to stop it some way. 

“Are 

you ready to let this go now and come back with me?” I ask him and he looks down at me with a sad face. 

“No” he said and I stared at him. 

“But your son needs you” I say and he looks at me surprised. 

“Linus is dead” he whispers and I tilt my head in confusion. 

He grabs my hand and walks out the door and into another memory. Linus is perhaps 13 this time, his mother is choking him when the curse activates and kills his mother but her hands are still on Linus n*eck and chokes the life out of him. 

Linus’ father rushes up to them and rips her from him, he takes her into his arms and howls before running away with her. 

“See he died because I was too weak to stop her” Linus’ father blames himself and I try to tell him that Linus is still alive but this time he shoves me out of his memories. 

The force is huge and I fly backwards and land on the grass about three meters away. I get up furious and so sad because he won’t listen. I take Linus’ hand and then I force my way into his father’s head but this time I take Linus with me. 

We travel into his lycans space and there it is pitch black like he isn’t there and in some way he isn’t. We find his human side instead. 

“Go away girl. It does not matter what you say, my son is dead and there is not anything that will change it.” he says and sniffles. 

“Fine then if you want to dwell in self pity, do that but you will listen to me and do as I say You will look up at your son!” I say 

“You will not say what I must do…” he says and looks up before he gasps 

He stands up slowly and sta ggers towards us and touches Linus’ face before he hugs him 

“Linus, is that you?” He asks and Linus nods 

I feel his lycan coming back as there is a light and both Linus’ father and his lycan melts into one another, becoming one again. Still hugging Linus like he is his lifeline and perhaps he is that to his father 

This time when we got out of his mind, we weren’t thrown backwards this time. Linus’ father gets up and cries while he hugs Linus again. 

“Wow, you guys glowed” Dave said in awe and the king nodded. 

“Cool but now I am hungry again” I say and all of them laugh. 

“Pancakes again?” Ares asks and I blush and nods
