Chapter 4

" How dare you talk to Her Highness like that. " Crystal bellowed.

" Lady Lauren you should stay out of this. Considering your brother His Majesty decided to spare your life but if you keep interfering we would be left with no choice. " Their leader admonished Crystal.

" YOU " Crystal was so irritated she almost jumped for his throat. But Elina was faster than her.

" Since you are here for me why waste time. Let's begin. " She smirked and then gave Crystal a look. It was not the first time that the girls had joined hands to fight someone. Crystal immediately knew what to do. At same time Elina looked at Lukas who was still shell shocked and whispered to him " Stay back we will deal with this. "

This woke him from his shock. He saw both the girls have changed into their wolves one white and one red. He has never seen a white wolf before. It is said only people from royal family has white wolf. But he did not have time to a

see the beautiful wolf because a bloody fight has already began. Elina was fighting with four wolves at once while Crystal was dealing with three. Lukas looked tense both of his hands fisted.

One of the wolf who was attacking Elina turned his head to Lukas. Considering that he could be a weak prey so he changed his target and attacked him. Both the girls panicked and tried to help him but they were blocked and attacked by the rest of the wolves. Everyone present could almost imagine a horrible scene. Suddenly Lukas who stood still lifted an arm and caught the attacking wolf by his neck. Before anyone can realize what is happening they heard a sound of bones cracking and the wolf dropped dead with its head twisted. This shocked the rest of the wolves and distracted them from there fights and the girls and Lukas took advantage of this and swiftly killed the rest of them.

Soon the forest restored to its former calmness the girls changed back to their human self. Since they turned into wolves the magic wore off. And now they looked like their self. None of them said a word instead they left the place and ran till they were few miles away from that place. It was already dark so they looked for a place to rest but when they finally sat down a weird silence grew between them. It was so awkward that that they did not even looked at each other. Finally Crystal couldn't take it anymore

" Luke do you blame us for dragging you into this. If you find it troublesome you can separate from us if you have to. But can we still stay friends. Please. " Crystal said everything in one breath but her tone was almost begging.

" Luke it is not Crystal's fault. She did everything for me. It was not our intention to lie we just didn't want you to get in trouble. I hope you can forgive us. "

Lukas was already shocked by Crystal's words but when he heard Elina he hurriedly denied it

" Your Highness its not that. I never blamed you two. I understand your situation. "

" Call me Elina or Eli. "

" Ah.....Yes Your... I mean Eli. "

" Oh that's great." Crystal heaved a sigh of relief.

" By the way you are really strong, I have never seen anyone killing a wolf in his human form. " Crystal said this while lightly punching Lukas's shoulder. " Your wolf must be even more powerful right. "

" No ... I mean I don't have a wolf, I never turned into one. "

" How is that possible you smell like one. " Crystal looked shocked while Elina looked at him with scrutiny.

" I know but this is the truth. And even if I am powerful. It does not last long. " He suddenly sighed and said painfully " When I overdo it I will lose all energy. I will become extremely weak. I think this the reason my mate rejected me. "

These words shocked both shocked both the girls. Crystal was so furious that her wolf started surfacing. Her voice turned deep mixture of both her's and Jamie's " WHO " She gritted her teeth.

" Crystal, calm down " Elina was trying to restrain her anger she knew they can't be impulsive but at the same time she want to hunt down the person who has hurt her friend. But she needs to know everything first because a rejection is not acceptable unless both the sides agree to it. If Lukas did not agree to it....

" Luke, First of all you are NOT weak. Second, NEVER talk about yourself like that. You are much stronger than you realize. Are we clear? "

Elina said these words seriously and forcefully.

Crystal was still highly pissed but still forced herself to sit and listen.

" Exactly, Luke you are so good. Anyone would be lucky to have you. It's their loss. You deserve better. " She said earnestly.

Lukas looked at them and smiled. Yes they are his friends. He saw they were hesitating to ask something. He sighed.

" You guys want to know how I ended up there there right. "

" Yes who did that...." Crystal started saying even though her voice sounded normal there was anger present in it but before she could finish she was kicked by Elina who indicated that they should not poke his pain.

" Alright stop it I will tell you. " Lukas always thought that this would be a pain that he would never be able to tell anyone. But right now he fells light as if a weight is taken off his shoulder.

" I was picked by the wolves from Clear Lake Pack. According to them they found me near their Pack boundaries. Alpha and Luna of that pack were really nice people. Same goes for other people except the future Alpha Derek. We never got along and fought whenever we met. Eventhough he was two years older than me I never actually lost a fight with him. Maybe that enraged him even further. After I did not turned into a wolf he got another reason to fight or maybe he thought he could finally defeat me but that did not happen. Our fights would almost every time ended up in a tie. More than year ago he was sent away for Alpha training and he recently came back so the pack arranged a party for him. When we met we realized that we are mates. He did not said a word instead led me deep in the forest. When we were alone he rejected me saying I am not strong enough to be his mate, I of course accepted it. But that bought tremendous pain so I just turned around and ran until I fell unconscious. When I woke up I was surrounded by a bunch of rouges even though I killed them I was gravely injured and somehow founded my way to where you people were. "

" Bastard " Crystal cursed loudly. " If I saw him I will definitely beat him up. "

Lukas laughed " I don't think you would see him anytime soon. "

" True. How disappointing. "

" I promise he will regret his decision one day. " Elina spoke slowly while looking at him " And stop saying you are weak you are not. "

" Okay I get it I will never say it again. "

" You think I am consoling you right. I am not. There is a reason why your wolf never came out."

" What is the reason? And does this mean that he can turn into a wolf too. " Crystal was happy to hear to hear this she knew that even if he says it's fine he still fell pained because of this.

Even Lukas looked at Elina expectantly.

" Yes he can turn into a wolf. " She smirked at both of them. She could be see both of them were really excited so she continued to speak

" As for the reason it was because...." She looked at Lukas and said

" You are a Hybrid. "
