Emily’s POV

I couldn’t tell how, but I had been getting bolder with this Lycan here.

Sincerely, I never meant to finally become this shameless just like him, but my body kept betraying me. Or was it just me, and my body was innocent? I couldn’t tell anymore. Not when his scent had grown stronger, the heat of sweat clinging to his skin.

The musky edge of exertion mixed with his usual pine scent, intoxicating me.

My fingers trailed over his damp, sculpted shoulders, and I felt his body tense ben

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    The Silent Mate Bond

    Malric’s POVEvery pair of eyes remained fixed on Sharina's motionless body as the final minutes before sunrise slipped away."Rina! Rina, don't do this to me." Theodore cried again, unable to hold himself back any longer.“Sarah…” I turned to her again. “please, there's something that has to be done…”"There's nothing we can do, Malric," she said quietly. "The only method I know would take at least half a day... and we no longer have that kind of time. All we can do now... is wait.”"Twenty minutes..." Theodore whispered, checking the clock with trembling hands. "Only twenty minutes left.”My chest tightened. I'd never seen Theodore break like this. Not even the day Sharina disappeared.As the seconds crawled by, the tension in the room became unbearable.Then... Sharina's fingers twitched.We all paused.Her eyelids fluttered.“Sharina?!”She drew in a sharp breath and her eyes snapped open.“Sharina?!” We all rushed to her side.Sarah reached her first.“Easy,” she said, supporting

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer     The Summoning

    Malric’s POV:“Sharina...” Theodore urged. “Focus. You are the Luna Healer. Trust your gift.”The temple fell silent once more as Sharina closed her eyes tighter, concentrating harder.Then, without warning, her knees buckled.She collapsed.“What the–”I caught her before she hit the ground and immediately dropped to one knee beside her.“Sharina?” I called, patting her cheek gently. “Sharina! Look at me.” my head snapped towards Sarah. “What's wrong with her?”“She must have exhausted herself,” Sarah said quickly. “Help me get her inside. Now.”Something about this wasn't right.She had collapsed like this once before…at the Goddess Altar during the Moon Ascendance.Sarah had blamed it on exhaustion then.But why here again?Why now?“Malric!” Sarah snapped. “Stop standing there.”I clenched my jaw and pushed my thoughts aside.Together, we carried Sharina into one of the private chambers within the temple.Sarah immediately began examining her while her disciples prepared several s

  • The Lycan King's Luna Healer    Officially the Luna Queen

    Malric’s POV “You may now drink from the sacred cup to complete the blood-binding ritual,” Sarah said.Sharina and I stood facing each other inside the Goddess Temple beneath the full moon, our hands clasped together just as Sarah had instructed.I released one hand long enough to accept the sacred cup and drank.Sharina did the same.The moment the last drop slid down my throat, something stirred deep within me.A purple thread suddenly appeared, winding itself around our joined hands.It looked similar to the Moon Goddess's red thread of fate.Sharina frowned as she stared down at the unusual color of the thread binding us together.“The bond must have been formed,” Sarah said, since a third party couldn't see the thread.“It's... purple thread,” Sharina blurted.“Purple?” Sarah's expression hardened as she turned to me. “That means you never broke your bond with Emily.”“I told you I wasn't going to,” I cut in.“Malric–”“What does the purple thread mean?” I interrupted again.Res

  • 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

    Irene’s POV My mind ran endlessly throughout the night until daybreak.And even then, I still couldn’t decide which death was easier—obeying Sharina… or telling the Lycan Prince the truth.So throughout the day, I avoided both of them.I couldn’t even tell my mother about this new complication. At

    Malric’s POV The moment the study doors shut, I turned to Sarah and Lucien immediately.“There’s a problem,” I said.Both of them frowned, waiting for me to continue.“I don’t think the disappearance of pups during Moon Ascendance years ago was a coincidence.”Lucien’s brows pulled together. “Why

    Emily’s POV Ruth and Darius stood with their beta and gamma, all of them bowed low.Sophia waved at me, and I lifted my hand in return through the glass barrier as Malric began pulling away.Lucien’s car followed closely behind.Malric’s fingers tightened slightly around the steering wheel, the le

    Emily’s POVThe arena fell into a heavy silence.It wasn’t the kind that came from peace.It was the kind that came from anticipation… from something about to break.Something irreversible.A mistake. A fall. Blood.I could feel it pressing in from all sides, thickening the air until it almost felt
