The Lycan King's Rebellious Queen

Stupid idea

Harley

I walked to the sofa carefully looking between Red and Archer. I knew something was going on but I wasn't sure exactly what that something was. I sat on one end and Archer sat on the other end, both of us looking up at Red, who stood in front of us like he was about to give us a stern talking to.

"I don't know how long you were hoping to pull this off, because the way you are going about things it will all be out in the open before you even make it to the end of the aisle" he said in an angered tone, looking between the two of us.

"Red, we both know what we are doing..." Archer began.

"No!"Red snapped. Archer raised his brows at him and I thought Red was about to get an ass whooping. I think he soon realized as I notice him taking a deep breath composing himself and apologizing to his Alpha. "I'm sorry, forgive my tone," he held up his hands as he calmed himself. "I just can't understand what possessed you to act on such a stupid idea?"

"I already said I have to...."

"I know what you said, but to use the mate bond. It is the most sacred bond within our kind. For people who have felt the love of their mate and know what it is like to be near them, especially for those who have lost their mate, this is complete betrayal which is why you are never going to pull this off alone. So, for your parents sake, may they rest in peace. I will help the two of you."

"I know we have to be all loved up and all that crap Red, I'm sure we can talk things through tonight and talk about boundaries, yeah?" Archer agreed nodding his head looking at me like I knew what he was talking about.

"Yeah, I mean that's fine" I agreed looking back at Red but I knew he wasn't accepting it.

"Do you know what it means for a Lycan to find his mate, the true feeling and sensation it brings you?" He asked me as he kelt down in front of us.

"I was always told a mate is like your true love." I said nervously. I could tell by Red's face there was so much more to it.

"Finding your mate is not just falling in love, you feel it deep inside of you. Everything that ever mattered to you fades away and that one person becomes your whole existence. you feel them when they are close, when they leave, it feels like they have taken a chunk of you with them. You can feel one another's emotions, you crave the touch of one another and would do anything to make the other happy. That is just one part of it."

He got up and sat between us taking my hand then Archers hand and placed them together. Archer looked at me, nether of us blinking as I felt Archers fingers slip between mine and hold onto my hand gently. "The touch between mates is electrifying, a Lycan can feel it deep within themselves like complete euphoria. You need to put on a show each time you are around people so you do not draw any attention to the both of you. I know it's awkward but kissing is a must, if you have'nt done it yet, you better get used to it because mates spend more time with their lips locked than they do talking to others" I looked at Archer wondering if he knew we were going to be doing all of this, because if he did he kept that part pretty quiet. I took my hand back and held it on my lap, I could still feel his touch, but I wasn't going to look a the i***t that got my into this situation.

"Ok, so we have to be close. We can do that" Archer agreed.

"Yes but make it seem normal to you, place your hand on her leg or stroke the back of her neck. play with her hair anything as long as you make it look like your madly in love and if any other man approaches your mate you are there to let him know she is off limits. There are people that will be watching, rivals, scorned women" Red raised his brow at Archer when he said the last part, then he turned to me, "There is one other thing you will have to do and this is just for you Harley" Red said as he stood back up.

"Of course there is, let me guess we have to start f*****g?" I said sarcastically.

"Would you?" he asked in a serious tone raising his brow at me.

"No!" I shouted.

"Of course, that would be silly" he laughed pretending that he was joking but I could tell he wasn't, "It's just, you will need to have his scent on you, it's a must for other Lycan's they need to know you belong to him. So sleeping in the same bed as one another is good, maybe wear some of his clothes whilst in here but I would also suggest just having a quick hug before you leave the room, like, rub your bodies together" he started swaying his body around in a strange motion.

"Red!" Archer snapped him out of it, "I think we understand."

"Sorry" he cleared his throat and straightened his tie. "I understand your reasoning for doing this but you have to be very careful, both of you. If it was to reach your pack that you lied about this you may lose the respect of alot of people."

"I understand that Red, but if I had taken her as a chosen mate there would have been people back in her territory that would have tried to stop this from happening. Doing things this way I knew they wouldn't want to get involved, humans know better than to come between true mates, they would have a war on their hands"

"Well that we agree on," Red agreed. "In the mean time I have jobs that need to be done, please come and find me if you need any help or advice, I know how blunt and vague this one can be" he raised his brows at Archer who chuckled to himself. "I bid you good evening and I shall see you for breakfast" Red waved as he walked out the room. Archer and I remained speechless and sat in silence for a while, I wasn't too sure what was running through his head but all I could think about was the fact I had to pretty much dry hump this man whilst I lived here. What else hadn't he told me? He growled deeply and rested his head on the back of the couch rubbing his eyes,

I got up and walked back to the bed climbing on it I had planned on finishing my reading. Keeping my focus on Archer out the corner of my eye I saw him get up and walk to the bathroom closing the door behind him.

It wasn't too long before I heard the door opening again. Archer walked out and straight into the closet where I heard him getting changed. "I'm impressed with this closet, I thought I would have to get Red in here to repack your things away for you"

"You shouldn't believe everything Lee tells you, I am capable of putting things away you know." so he did believe her then.

I heard him mumble something under his breath but I didn't catch what he said. I was just about to ask him what he said but he spoke again. "Who said a I believe everything she tells me anyway?" he asked as he walked back out the closet. He was now in a vest top and black shorts, he threw something in my direction. "Put that on" I picked up the garment and held it up, it was one of his shirts. "It's pretty much clean but it has my scent on it."

I didn't argue, for some reason I trusted what Red said a little more than him right now, I needed his scent on me and I would rather do it this way. I stood up and pulled off my top, "Ok, so you doing that now then."

"Relax, im sure you have seen plenty of women in their bra, It's not like you can actually see anything" I motioned to my boobs.

"No but the outline is pretty good" I pulled his shirt over my head and looked at him, his eyes were fixated on my body. "So tell me the truth, did you know we were going to have to get this close?" I asked him bluntly.

He shrugged and inhaled deeply, "I knew we were going to have to show some affection towards one another but if I'm honest I was hoping to get tomorrow over and done with and keep you out of the way for the remainder of your stay, maybe lock you away in the dungeons" he laughed.

"Funny, your such a comedian" I rolled my eyes and climbed back into bed.

"I've said the same thing but not everyone agrees" he pulled back the covers next to me and climbed into bed, grabbing something from beside him I saw a flicker of light and the large flat screen tv turned on. "What does my wife to be fancy watching the night before her wedding day" he asked with a smirk on his face.

"You choose, you come across as a spoilt brat. I would hate to pick something that is not to your liking and have you throw a tantrum" I smiled sarcastically back at him.

He laughed but I ignored him. I continued to read my book until I heard his soft snores from next to me. I looked at him to see he had passed out, he was facing me his hands on his chest one holding the controller tightly. Gently, I placed my book down beside me and leaned in closer to him, I slowly reached across for the control to turn the TV off. I managed to wiggle it free from his grip but I paused as I looked at his face. He looked peaceful and harmless like he wouldn't harm a fly. His skin was smooth, not a blemish on his face, I lowered my eyes to his body, he was well and truly ripped,
