Dylan POV
"Why would someone mark their mate without permission?!" Lewis asked, while still holding onto the man's
limbs.
V was very quick to answer his rhetorical question though as she met my eyes with a hard expression.
"Because the king announced live on television that it was his intention... as soon as he finds his queen he would
mark her." My head shot up to her with wide eyes, why would the king say something like that on live television?
"The king said that? He must have known how many people would listen to him. After meeting Carlos | know for
a fact there's more people unwilling to bend to the lycans. His words just created open season on any reluctant
mate." | wasn't wrong. The king although an absolute bastard of a tyrant, he had influence, his title made it so.
"Youre right, if the king is able to mark his mate without consent then Lycans from all over will expect to be able
to do the same." The doctor suddenly barged past Lewis with a long needle ready to help the poor man that was

"That can be discussed later..." Doctor Bedidn't waste any tin rolling the man over while | kept my
fingers plugging the holes in his neck. The needle was injected into the man's spine and witching a minute the
man was silent, feeling the instant relief the anaesthetic gave him, he fell asleep instantly. Lewis sighed and let
the man's ankles go before walking over toand placing his large hand on my shoulder. My head met his and |
watched his pupils widen slightly once he met my gaze.
"Are you ok?" He asked his voice holding nothing but sincerity. | nodded my head as | gazed at him, the heat
from his hand made a lump form in my throat as | forced my eyes away from his.
"This can not keep going on like this..." | stated shaking my head slightly in disbelief at the situation before me.
"The lycanthrope can not take anything else away from us! Giving our consent to the mating tradition was the
only thing that they had no control over, and even though it's a death sentence, they have still taken that away
from us." My fingers still plugged the wound of the man while the doctor flitted around gathering items to
replace my phalanges. "What is going to happen to this guy?”
My question was only answered by facial expressions that showed nothing but unknowing comments. They had
no idea. John was holding a small tray of items when he finally broke the silence surrounding everybody.
"Well... There are rumours that it can trigger a change... as in a change in species." | frowned deeply and looked
at the poor man who lay on the bed next to me, barely clinging to life.
"You mean, a forced marking results in the human becoming a Lycan?!" If that was the case then surly every wolf
would have been forcibly marking their mates long before the king ever threatens it.
"I've heard this too..." Lewis agreed with John while his hand still rested firmly on my shoulder. "But it never
works. It always results in death. A wolf bite simply acts as a type of venom, killing every cell in your body. It's
why forced markings were illegal from the beginning, before even my dad was born."
“So right now, this guy...” The doctor nodded and walked over to my hands to inspect the would | was currently
stopping from bleeding everywhere.
“Right now, this poor man is in excruciating pain.” He gently took hold of my wrist and pulled one of my fingers

Doctor Beto get to work in stopping the bleeding.
It took two hours all together before | could safely remove both my fingers from the guys neck. The sedative the
doctor gave him was still in effect, | didn’t doubt Bewould lower the dosage any tsoon.
“So will he die then?” | couldn't help but look at all the blood that had cfrom his neck and wonder weather
anyone could survive something like that.
“There's no way to tell what will happen. We will just have to keep closely monitoring his vitals.” Not a very
convincing answer.| wasn’t holding out much hope for him.
“Does he not need blood or something? He's lost a lot of it.” A small noise sounded from Lewis and it made me
turn my head towards him once again. “What?” | frowned at the ex royal beta but couldn’t help the small smile
that formed on my lips. God even just seeing him brightens my day up.
“It’s just, in the past, you've lost much more than he has and yet, you're stood here worrying about him.” Now |
knew Lewis was talking nonsense, my mother might have lost much more blood than this, but if | had, | really «
would have been dead.
