The Lycan Prince's Forbidden Luna

DANA"You have to be kidding me, Carter," I spit, hating how my voice shakes with emotion. "You're asking me to accept your divorce so you can marry that lycan bitch, but you don't want me to pack my bags and leave?"Carter strides toward me desperately, raking a hand through his thick, black hair. With sincerity shining in his turquoise gaze, he tells me, "You're my whole world, Dana. Why would I want you to leave? Just because I'm marrying that woman doesn't mean we can't be together anymore."For several seconds, all I can do is stare at him. Ten minutes ago, he walked right into our bedroom and tried to explain to me how his marriage to Karina Nevaryan, a well-known lycan princess whose entire kingdom has just been invaded by the growing group of rebels everyone's been worried about, would completely change the status of our pack and bring us even more success in our world.He keeps using the word 'us' like this isn't just about him and his ambitions.Weakly, I manage to ask him,

DANADirectly after the painful introduction, I hurried into my bedroom and I haven't left it since.I'm pretty sure everyone's having dinner right about now, but Carter hasn't asked anyone to fetch me. It's better this way, in any case, for everyone involved. That man... Every time he looks at me, shivers race down the length of my spine. What are the odds that the man I had a one-night stand with all those years ago would end up here, right under the roof my home? Ex-home, I should say, because this place doesn't feel that way anymore. My biggest worry right now is Lenny. I can't even leave without jeopardizing his future. He has school, and here, he's the Alpha's little brother-in-law who's adored by everyone. Even Carter loves him. If I leave, what will his future look like? Because there's no way I would leave him here all by himself.Years ago, when I first found out that the stranger from the bar knocked me up, I hated myself. I felt selfish for bringing Lenny into this wor

DANA"...don't understand what you're trying to say to me," the bitch is saying to him in a voice that grates on my nerves. Why the hell would she need to use this sweet tone? "Why should it take more time? We're supposed to get married in the coming few weeks, aren't we?""Yes," Carter replies with all the patience in the world, and I hear his footsteps, meaning he's moved from his position. Is he inching closer to her? "I know what I promised to you, but things are complicated with my ex-wife right now, and I have to get things right before it happens."Ex-wife."I came here because I was under the impression that you're a good and honest man, Alpha Carter," she continues. "You told me that by the time we got here, she'd be out of the picture for good. Do you realize how this makes us look?""Yes, I know what it looks like," Carter says in that strange voice that doesn't sound like him at all. My heart is breaking but I have to hold on to hear the rest. I have to listen to all of it

DANAWhat the hell am I going to do now? Carter is just on the other side of the door, so close that I can hear him breathing, and I'm here, in the most dangerous position imaginable with a man I'm starting to consider my tormentor. His smirk is infuriating because I can imagine just how twisted his thoughts are right now. But despite my broken heart and my bruised ego, I have to be strategic about all this. "You don't have to do that, Carter," I say back, hoping that I don't sound as nervous as I feel. "When I leave the bathroom, we'll talk.""You have every right to be mad at me, baby. I want you to know that."Before I can even think about replying, the lycan prince raises his hand and caresses my cheek with the back of his fingers. I flinch and my head bangs against the door. I shoot him a glare as rage bubbles inside of me, but I can tell by the look on his face that he just doesn't care. "But we have to work through this," Carter continues, thankfully oblivious to the noise. "

FERRANThe annoyance written all over Alpha Carter's face shouldn't excite me as much as it does, but it's been years since I've had any fun, and the cruel bastard inside of me can't seem to stop craving that feeling. My doll is long gone by now, so the two of us are alone. It was a struggle, keeping my eyes on her husband's face when all I wanted to do was stare at her glorious ass as she walked away. "What do you want to talk to me about, Prince Ferran?" Alpha Carter asks in a clipped tone. Oh, he's upset, alright. He's been looking at me out of the corner of his eye since breakfast, undoubtedly wondering what his wife and I were arguing about. "How about we head inside your office? We wouldn't want to be overheard, now would we?"I follow him across the living area, looking over my shoulder in hopes of spotting her. I never thought I'd see her again since that first and last night we spent together. Sometimes, I asked myself if I dreamt the whole thing, but I had her scent coati
