Malric’s POV

For two weeks that Emily had been lying in that hospital, I couldn’t blame anyone else but myself. The thought lingered constantly, settling in the back of my mind like a weight I couldn’t shake off no matter how many distractions I forced upon myself.

Even during the trip I had no choice but to undertake, my mind refused to settle.

Meetings, decisions, movements—I went through them all mechanically, barely present.

At some point, I found myself calling Robert almost every minute

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    The Wrong Turn

    Emily’s POV “That is impossible!” the Guardian said sharply. “There has only ever been one Healer per generation.”My brow pulled together.“What do you mean?”“Two divine Healers cannot exist at the same time,” it said. “The elder Healer usually dies while giving birth to the next. But in rare cases, they die before the younger’s power fully awakens.”A cold dread settled in my chest.My hands moved instinctively to my stomach.“You… you mean…” My voice shook. “I’m going to die while giving birth?”“That is the fate of a Healer,” it confirmed.My heart sank.Two things struck me at once.One, my biological mother was most likely no longer alive.Two, my child… would grow up just like me if I died. No clear identity, especially if I remained on the run and far away from Malric.No biological parents to guide her either… unless she somehow found someone as kind-hearted as the mother who raised me. And in this harsh werewolf world, that was rare.My throat tightened.My child would nev

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    The True Healer

    Emily’s POVI didn't open the letter Irene had somehow slipped into my room until I was well outside the palace grounds.The moment I unfolded it and began to read, my jaw tightened at the first few paragraphs.“Bastards,” I gritted out as everything finally made sense.Sarah and Sharina had been working together. They had used Irene to distract Lucien since Malric was away from the palace. That was why it had been so easy for Sarah to use Lucien's name to fool certain guards. While those guards rushed around carrying out the Prince’s supposed orders, I had been quietly smuggled out of the palace amid the confusion Sarah created.My eyes dropped to Irene's letter again.Every line was filled with her guilt and regret. Sharina had blackmailed her again, and this time there had been no way out.I lowered the letter slowly, my throat tightening. I couldn't even bring myself to blame her.This was the palace.Not only power and authority rule everything inside there, feelings didn't matt

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    Everything Goes Wrong

    Lucien’s POV I didn’t wait for the aphrodisiac to take full effect before I grabbed her.She let out a startled cry, struggling beneath my grip, but I didn’t stop.With one swift motion, I hauled her over my shoulder and headed straight for the bedroom.She cried out again.I ignored it.She had started this.Now she would have to explain herself.“This is what you wanted, isn't it?” I said, dropping her onto the bed.My gaze never left hers.She shook her head violently, the color draining from her face.Damn it.I hated how badly I wanted to believe her.I wanted her to give me a reason. A good one.“Then tell me why,” I said, forcing my voice to remain steady.“I... I... my... I...” she stammered, her hands shaking as she braced herself against the bed.“Talk!” I barked, taking a step toward her.She flinched. Her eyes squeezed shut and she raised an arm over her face, instinctively shielding herself. As though she believed I was about to hit her.Damn it.My jaw tightened.The ap

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    A Bad Idea

    Lucien’s POVFor the past few hours, Irene had been in my suite.She sat across from me at the dining table, completely buried in the ledgers I had given her.Obviously, she had made an absolute mess of the last one. Still, I needed a reason to keep her here."When are you going to tell her how we feel?" Knox asked inside my head."Not yet," I replied. "That might scare her away. She needs to trust me first."Knox huffed."Or you're afraid she'll turn you down due to your bad reputation with she-wolves.”I scoffed. "And whose fault is that? I've spent years being dragged around by a Lycan incapable of looking away from a pretty face.”The irony was almost offensive.Of all the Lycans the Goddess could have bestowed me with, she had given me one with the self-control of a drunken playboy."Excuse me?" Knox sounded offended. "I had standards.""Yes, by chasing every noblewoman with a pretty face?""That is a gross exaggeration.""You once made me attend three banquets in one week becaus

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    The Priestess’s Warning

    Emily’s POV Ever since we returned from the hunt, Malric had made sure I stayed in his suite. Even when I protested that this suite would soon belong to him and Sharina after their bonding tomorrow, he refused to yield.He said Sharina would have her own chambers as the queen, and that I would stay here under his care because of the child I carried.He said he needed to look after both of us.Still, I didn’t want it this way.Sharina would be queen.And I could not stay in her space.Because of that… I wouldn’t abandon my plan.I was leaving this castle.By midnight, the moon would be full. Malric and Sharina would complete their bonding at the Goddess Temple, in the presence of the Moon Goddess herself. By morning, their official mating ceremony would begin.My mind worked quickly, calculating every possible escape route between the moment he would leave for the temple and the moment he would return.That was my only window.But escaping the castle wasn’t simple. Not with security t

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    Trapped in Her Web Again

    Irene’s POV “Good to see you, Irene,” Sharina said, inspecting her manicured nails as though she had come here for something far more pleasant than this.A smile tugged at her lips.“I’m sure you've convinced yourself you've slipped out of my grasp.”She laughed softly.“What a disappointing mistake.”Her eyes locked onto mine.“You haven't escaped me. Not even close.”I swallowed.“On your knees.” She ordered.I didn't dare argue. Even my mother was already on her knees, her entire body trembling.Sharina stepped forward, clearly enjoying my panic.“I was wondering how a maid suddenly became so important to the Lycan Prince.”Her gaze swept over me with open contempt.“Now I understand.”Her lip curled.“You've been warming the Prince's bed.”My mother's gasp echoed through the room.“Irene?!”“No, Mum,” I blurted out. “I didn't…”A sharp slap cracked across my cheek.My head snapped to the side.Pain burned through my skin.“How dare you imply I'm lying?” Sharina hissed.Then she t

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    That Won’t Be Possible

    Emily’s POVIf I said I didn’t notice Malric’s struggle, how he was trying to hold himself together, I’d be lying.It wasn’t subtle. The weight in his gaze lingered too long… It made it hard to breathe properly around him.Like something that used to flow freely… now held back by an invisible barr

    Malric’s POV“What does it look like I’m doing?” I answered her question with mine as I unbuttoned her ruined dress.“You can’t keep this on,” I added firmly.She had insisted it was the meal that made her throw up, so I had already mindlinked the kitchen staff to prepare her something light and su

    Emily’s POV After the warning hidden in Sharina’s stare, I knew one thing — I had to stay alert.Not wanting to stand around looking useless, I joined the maids helping with the smaller tasks while the men handled the heavier work.The he-wolves worked quickly, driving stakes into the ground and h

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    Beneath Her Stare

    Emily’s POV The way Theodore was looking at me right now was far scarier than helpful in any way.His brows had drawn together slightly, his eyes fixed too intently on my face. Like he was searching and expecting to find something there.I might have accidentally said something Sharina used to say
