Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

Ashylnn\'s voice broke everyone about and they turned to look at her. Even the king was broken from hairs staring competition with adelaine and he turned to look at his sister in law. 

They had never seen her tune so aggressive and it was a bit shocking to be honest. 

"Now that I have everyone\'s attention," she glanced around to make sure everyone was watching her, "I would have a f . .we. ." A sudden wave of dizziness hit her and she stumbled for a second before gaining back her balance. 

"Ashlynn, my dear are you alright? If you want to rest then, say the word and will take you to your room." Cassandra stood immediately and walked to the child. 

" No, no," she shook her head, " I\'m thi . . Nk. . ." 

Everyone watched and slightly widened their eyes as they watched Ashlynn\'s figure fall down to the ground. 

Chaos erupted everywhere within seconds everyone\'s brand up to deal with the situation. Xavier immediately held her in his arms and took her to the information as he told everyone where as Adeline watched from where she was sitting. 

Everyone went out of the room including her aunt and she continued to sit there in shock at what happened. She continued to stare at the chair where Ashleynn was previously sitting. 

"Oh my. ." Her hand covered the mouth as her eyes got slightly glossy. It was the truth then. Her friend was going to die anytime soon and today her fainting out of nowhere and within seconds was an example of this. Someone was going to die again and this time it was going to be in front of her.

She sniffed instead of. The servants were still in the room but they did not pay attention which must have been instructed by Xavier. Of course you would want her to feel like the dirt under the ground. She moved outside the dining room and found a door attached to a door. 

Without thinking much of it she entered the room to find a much smaller hallway than the others. 

She took the stairs which were smaller and more tight than she had ever seen. Even in her house where they were just two floors the stairs were much bigger in nature and were comfortable to walk on. 

As she walked on the stairs, farmood only got more gloomy done before. Nothing had her mood now given that it was only some time left before Ashley and what pass away and she knew that her heart and mind could not there that. First it was her father who died because she refused to tell him the truth or was simply in too late to do so then it was Alexander who died to protect her and in the same night it was also her child who she was not aware aware of to begin with now it was going to be ashlynn and the daunting fact was that she knew about it but could not do anything. 

She roughly ran a hand over her face. How was she supposed to do anything about it when she had no knowledge about the topic to begin with? However she lived while knowing the fact that her friend was going to die eventually because of something that was her? 

"Was Xavier right then? Was everything my fault to begin with?" She muttered under her breath thinking out loud about what had happened. 

The end of the stairs finally arrived and adaline walked into another room that was a like a small kitchen. Her eyes landed on the knife.

"This happened due to exhaustion. It is obvious that Mrs Alexander has not been taking care of herself and she is showing signs of dehydration along with exhaustion. It is a given that she\'s not sleeping, but this is concerning if she wants to maximize the time that she wants to live." 

Everyone gave a sigh of relief at that. At least she had not dropped dead and for now; it was everything that they could hope for. 

"What can we do about it?" Cassandra quality ask the doctor even though she knew that this was not much hope about whatever they could do for the little girl. 

The doctor gave her a knowing look. It was obvious that whatever they would do would only prolong the inevitable. 

"Well," he began, "even the window that it would eventually be difficult for half an hour I can tell you to make sure that she is eating a good diet and if possible she maintains the connection with her wolf. For that, if you can take her out on runs that would be the most helpful." 

" Alright, thank you." The King nodded to the doctor who moved out at once recognising the dismissal that was given to him. 

"She fainted today," Cassandra could not help but be careful at the sight of her. Another one of eight children were now lying in infirmary looking as if they were dead or very to the world. Only her constant heart beats were a reassurance. "Who knows what will happen tomorrow. . ." 

Xavier sighed, tired of everything. "Whatever happens tomorrow we will take care of it. We will take care of it as a family would." 

He did not say that they would take care of Ashlynn no matter what because it was only a matter of time before she passed away and it was only natural because of which nothing can be done about it. Which is why he did not try in the slightest to raise the hope of his mother. 

"Anyway I should go n—OH!" His hand reached to his heart immediately as he felt a sudden gush of pain. It was like someone had pierced him with a spear. 

"What the fuck. . ." He whispered as he tried to get control of the situation and held himself up by the support of the court that he had really grabbed. His mother had already come to his side to help him. 

"What\'s wrong!" Cassandra Cassandra tried to listen to his heart beat which seemed to be normal if not escalated by something. She tried to check for any external injuries that he might have had. 

The pain only began to increase and Xavier held his heart in his firm. The more he pressed his hand into his chest the more we wondered What was the cause of it because usually did not have any pains as such. But was the meaning of this sudden pain in his chest? 

Only one name came to his mind and that was adaline. 

"SHIT!" His eyes widened at the thought and he straightened up even though it was very difficult to do so with the pains going on in his body and trying to crumble him up. 

Cassandra was hot in his heels as he tried to move out of the room and was clearly failing to do so. 

"What? What?" His mother cried out at her inability to help or even know what was going on. By looking at him who could not even walk while standing straight it only gave into her fear no more about what was happening around them. "What! Tell me!"

"A-adeline, " he croaked out, "Go check on her." He barely managed to say. It fucking hurt so much! 

Cassandra did not need to be told twice about what to do. She spotted a guard that was outside the room and immediately commanded him, "Look for Adeline! Now!" 

They frantically nodded and sprang into action to find the young women that they were all aware would be the Queen of the country in the future. 

"What else can be done about it?" Tessa neared the man who was in pain. " I am sure that it would still be around in the dining room. She won\'t have gone far." She tried to offer words of reassurance knowing that I didn\'t could not go far away since it was a given that she did not know much about the palace which only ended in her roaming around and getting lost. 

His eyes were blacking out and he said his fear of building up because it was the reality that he might die any moment now. Such heart pains and his vision blocking up did not help. His eyes were blinking his eyes as they were ready to close on the run completely when he saw something. 

 . . .a chair. .? 

Table. . . Knife. . . 

He groaned out in pain. It was increasing. "Adeline mom, Ad . . a. . .line," he whispered out, almost ready to cry out. 

It fucking hurt. 

"Get the doctor!" Cassandra screamed! "Get the doctor here and tell him to find out what is happening to my son!" She commanded and nurses and doctors appeared. 

The life of the king was in danger and there was no heir to be in sight. 

"Where\'s Adeline?" His eyes opened a little when he heard the woman ask, the guard looked panicked. 

"Not. . Good. . ." He tried to stay as long as he could to catch the words to what the guard was saying but his eyes gave up and he slipped into the darkness.
