The Lycan’s Queen Book 1 – Chapter 10
Series
The next two days came around much quicker than expected. I found myself neck deep in all the
packing I had to do. Without fail, Adonis rang me every day, and I actually looked forward to my calls.
He asked me how packing went, and I replied with “boring,” to which he said that I should have just
stayed home with him.
But I told him the same thing, that I wanted to say a proper goodbye to the place I grew up in, and he
understood.
Carter stepped right into his role of being alpha, and Diya was right by his side. Seeing them both
together either made me feel sick or made me feel happy
I think Carter purposely tries to make me feel sick by making out with my cousin in front of me.
True to his word, Luke followed me around everywhere. I could tell he was super cautious. For me, I
had come to terms with the fact I couldn‘t escape this time, but I hadn‘t given up. Daily Latest udate

Sophia was around a lot too, she helped me pack and talked to me about the changes I would be
facing. Sounded pretty daunting to be honest, but I just nodded and smiled.
There was one person who began to give me the creeps. Hunter
For some reason, every time I glanced at him, he was already looking back at me. I no longer felt the
pain that I used to feel but instead felt very uncomfortable.
It felt like he was staking a claim on me, and that wouldn‘t end well for him. I can‘t imagine Adonis
willingly giving me over to Hunter ever. Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
Adonis rang me at 9 a.m. this morning to tell me he was on his way to my pack. Those words made me
jump out of bed and quickly get ready.
Knowing that this would be my last time in my room made me sad. After all, my room had been my
sanctuary forever, and I didn‘t want to leave it behind. Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
Mom popped her head through the door and said, “All packed?” I didn‘t
trust my voice, so I just nodded, and Mom sighed. “Baby, I know you‘re finding this difficult, but this is a
brand new chapter for you. You should be excited! This will always be your home no matter what, you
know that.”
“Oh, Mom. How can I leave everything behind? This is all I have ever known.” I collapsed into my
mom’s warm embrace.
She ran her hands through my hair before replying, “Aarya, I raised a strong girl. Change is always
hard, but I know that you will get through it.” Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
I sighed before nodding. “I‘ll try.”
“That‘s my girl.” Mom smiled at me.
I spent the next two hours packing and bringing everything downstairs. Carter and Diya came to help,
although Carter just spent most of the time annoying me.
“Smiley, don‘t leave.” Carter gave me a sad smile.
“Don‘t you start because I think I might cry.” I shook my head.
“I‘ve been putting this to the back of my head thinking I have plenty of time left with you. God, I’ll miss
you, Smiley.” Carter pulled me in for a big hug, I let myself sink into his embrace and then responded,
“How am I going to survive without your constant teasing?”
“You‘re too high and mighty for that now,” Carter teased me. Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
Saying goodbye to my pack proved to be too much for me as a few tears escaped. I was wiping some
away before a car pulled up.
Adonis stepped out, and immediately people bowed to him. His gaze found mine, and I was entranced
as he walked toward me.
“Little mate, I have missed you,” Adonis whispered, sending shivers down my spine.
I gave him a small smile and watched as his gaze hardened on the tears that had fallen.
“Tears? Who made my queen cry?” Adonis growled.
People looked down at the floor in worry, and I looked at my mate‘s face. He was looking at everyone,
trying to figure out why I was crying. Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
“No one made me cry. I am just upset that I am leaving,” I softly said.
Adonis looked at me and sighed, “I should have known. Sorry, everyone, I overreacted.”
“No, you were just concerned for your mate,” Carter replied.
Adonis nodded and looked at me. “Are you all set to go?” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
I nodded, and Adonis motioned for the guards standing behind him to take my stuff away.
Tears threatened to fall again when I saw all my belongings being packed away and my family standing
there with sad smiles on their faces.
Before we sat in the car, a voice called my name. “Aarya.”
to see Hunter rushing forward with something in his hand. See, if I still had the same feelings as I did
before, then my heart would be racing so fast, but now I just felt uncomfortable.
“Don‘t go without me giving you your gift. Here.” Hunter gave me a necklace
It was a simple necklace, but as I held it in my hand, I couldn‘t help but think he was staking some sort
of claim on me.
“Let me.” Hunter took the chain out of my hand. Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
“No,” Adonis and I both said at the same time.
I looked at Adonis, who looked like he was going to tear Hunter apart. Shit, I hope he hadn‘t figured out
that Hunter was the one that broke my heart.
“Thanks for the gift, Hunter, but I will put it on later. We need to get going now,” I explained.
Hunter nodded, but I couldn‘t help but notice the defeated look on his face. My gaze found Carter, who
was currently glaring at Hunter. Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
That confirmed my suspicions that Hunter was indeed acting weirdly. There was no sign of Lana
anywhere, which was odd.
Adonis was still glaring at Hunter, but I decided to take charge.
“Come on, Adonis, we need to get going,” I said, pulling Adonis out of his anger-fueled trance against
Hunter.
He nodded at me, and I turned to my family and smiled sadly.
“I love you all, and I will miss you so much,” I said.
“We love you too, Aarya,” my dad replied. Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
Once Adonis and I were both in the car, I waved sadly as we left my pack house. The only place I knew
as home for all these years.
The first hour of the journey was silent; I listened to music while Adonis drove. We stopped at services
in the second hour for a toilet break, and I met Sophia while getting some food.
When we hit the road again, I noticed that Adonis hadn‘t gotten any food while I picked up a sandwich.
Then entailed the inner debate of whether or not I should offer him my sandwich
My wolf, of course, was saying offer him all my food, which was pushing it just a little. After all, a girl still
needed to eat.
In the end, I decided to share my sandwich, but when I offered it to Adonis, he told me he couldn‘t eat
and drive. What rubbish, I always ate and drive.
Nevertheless, I felt some sort of need to want Adonis to eat. Therefore, I did the only logical thing
possible. I fed him.
I think he was shocked when my hand suddenly went in front of his face, holding a sandwich. He
looked at me in confusion, and I glanced back at the sandwich and said, “Eat.” Daily Latest udate

He nodded slowly, and while focusing on the road, took a bite out of the sandwich. That action made
me shiver.
Honestly, was my body going to react like this every time Adonis did something? I wasn‘t sure I could
handle it.
Adonis continued to eat the sandwich I fed him, and once he finished, I knew he was satisfied. Then I
ate the other half.
It was only silent for a while before I broke it to say, “I don‘t know if you know that I was training to be a
pack doctor.”
Adonis looked at me and then back at the road. “Yes, I knew that.”
Of course he did. Why wasn‘t I shocked. Obviously he did some sort of background check on me.

“Well, I‘d like to continue my training and work as a professional.” I glanced to see his reaction.
“Of course, there isn‘t a problem with that.” Adonis‘s response shocked me.
“You...you‘re okay with it?” I asked.
“Yes, why wouldn‘t I be?” Adonis looked at me.
“I thought I was going to be engaged in queen duties all day, or I wasn‘t allowed because I was going
to be a queen,” I admitted.
“There is no reason why you cannot be a doctor and a queen. You obviously have a talent and are
passionate about being a pack doctor. Those two things are precious, and I would never take them
away from you.” Adonis smirked when he saw my reaction.
“Have some faith in me, little one. I am not as bad as you think,” Adonis teased.
I didn‘t trust my voice, so I just nodded instead. Who knew Adonis would agree so easily?
I planned out in my head the other steps I would take because I was sure he‘d disagree, but he had
proved me wrong.
It was at that moment that I yawned, and Adonis chuckled. That sent sparks down my spine. His laugh
made me feel all fuzzy inside.
“I guess you’re not an early riser.” Adonis smiled. Daily Latest udate www.Noveljar.com
I shook my head and Adonis said, “Sleep, little one.”
I didn‘t need telling twice, my eyes began to close once I relaxed, and the last words I heard before
falling into a deep slumber were, “Soon we will be home.”
