DAMION’S POV “This is ridiculous, Damion. You are having a soft spot for this new maid of yours. You have many servants, yet you give Aurora the simplest tasks,” Sera growled as she strolled over to my dressing mirror.I rolled my eyes. It was true, I had given her simple tasks, maybe because I knew she wouldn't handle being by the castle borders and defeating rogues, demons, shadow monsters, and other creatures that constantly tried to get into my territory.“Are you jealous that she cleans better than you?” I teased, pulling the white sheet over my naked chest.“Maybe I am. You have been so close to her lately, and it's making me mad.” Sera let out a low rumble.“Listen, we've fucked a few times, but that doesn't mean I can't fuck any other female. Relax.” I got up from the bed, naked and slightly sweaty.After Aurora left to hunt with my pack, I felt uneasy. I needed to fuck someone to calm my nerves, and it wasn't working.I stood in front of the mirror beside Sera. Her eyes tra
AURORA'S POV I woke up with a bang on the door and an angry Sera standing in front of me.Her hand had healed, but it left a huge scar. An ugly scar. I felt bad for losing it and attacking her; I had never hurt anyone before, but for Jane I would. Jane had always followed me and urged me to play with her back in Velmoria. Apart from Sammy, she was the only little friend I had. “The king has summoned you,” Sera said through gritted teeth.I nodded and straightened my uniform. Thankfully, Mark left many pairs, but all in the same shade except one, which was red. I wondered if there was an occasion when I had to wear a red uniform.I followed behind Sera. I didn’t trust her; she could pounce on me any second.Lukas came from the kitchen with a tray filled with delicious food. He entered Griselda's room, and I heard a girl giggle.Jane? She’s still here? She can’t survive the torment here. Velmoria was better than here.I reached Damion's chambers, and he stood there with Mark, Sera, an
DAMION'S POV (The lycan king )I've lived a thousand lives. I've seen people find mates, have families and die, but I've lasted the test of time because of that stupid curse. I had never been drawn towards a female before, especially one I liked. Aurora seemed to be different, so unique. She was naive and pure and didn’t see how evil this world truly is.I got up from the bed and walked towards the door.She didn’t even protest when I said I don’t fuck virgins. Maybe it was for the best that I keep her as far away from me as possible.“You can leave my chambers,” I said, avoiding her gaze. Those icy-blue eyes and silver-white hair... Her sudden change ever since she got here was astonishing.“Never touch me again. I may be your maid, but I am definitely not a toy to play with. Unlike you, I have feelings,” she snapped.What was wrong with me? If it was another female, I would have ripped them apart. But her, she ruled me and Alex, my wolf.I opened the door and motioned for her to
DEXTER GRAY'S POVThose good-for-nothing lycans. I groaned as I kept limping. I wasn’t satisfied that I couldn’t get Aurora’s powers. That lycan king had rendered me weak. I should never have owed him shit.I reached the gates of Velmoria, the forests were dying, rivers drying, animals dying and it was dreadful. I loved it.The market sellers were in chains, new warriors marched the streets, and nobody was goofing around. We finally had some order.“Hey, move it!” A werewolf warrior shoved me from the back.“Watch who you’re messing with.” I gave him one glance, and he started screaming.I was still able to melt werewolves from the inside—my powers were just limited, never to be used outside the kingdom.“Make it stop!” the man cried out.“Oh fine… you’re such a crybaby.” I dismissed my gaze from him and walked straight to the castle.I wondered what Kael was doing. I entered the gates, and everything was a mess. There was no shade of light, everything was destroyed.“What’s King Ka
AURORA'S POV “Sera, you're hurting her.” A girl with short black hair got up from her seat and stood in front of Sera and me. “Do you know what the king will do if he finds you hurting his servant? Remember last time?”She glared at the girl coldly before letting go of her grip. That would definitely leave a mark.“It's almost midnight; let's go to the dining table for dinner,” the girl said. “I am sure Aurora made some nice stew.” She smiled at me before her gaze turned cold.We walked out of the room and into the dining hall.I wondered how long these lycans had been trapped here. I felt sad for them.What was their story? And why couldn't they just team up and defeat this curse?My hand subconsciously drifted to my necklace, and I started rubbing it lightly. This felt better each time.Damion arrived late at the table; no one started eating until he was there.“You'll die of hunger if you keep expecting me to show up first,” he said nonchalantly.“You're our king. This is our trad
AURORA’S POVThis is ridiculous. I may have been used to being bullied back in Velmoria, but I have never come across torment like Damion's.I dragged the heavy bucket of meat as I walked to the back side of the castle. There was a huge pond, it almost looked like a river. It was scary.Huge monstrous creatures came out of the water.“These ain't crocodiles, these should be demons,” I flinched, nearly dropping the bucket.I walked closer to the water and threw the chunks of meat inside, nearly falling over.“Careful, these creatures are deadly,” a manly voice echoed from behind me. “Here let me help.”“Uuh! Sorry, I didn't see you there.” I couldn't believe there were kind lycans here.I looked to my sides to make sure Damion didn't pop out of nowhere and shred me to pieces about what I wanted to do.“What’s your name?” I batted my eyes. He chuckled slightly and took the blood-smeared bucket from my hands. My tiny hands felt a sense of relief.“I am Lukas. I am one of the pack warrio
