Violet

He paused, then turned slowly, raising a brow as if he was wondering why I was stopping him.

My legs moved quickly as I moved in front of him.“I just wanted to say...” I awkwardly looked around, trying to come up with anything. What did I even want to say?

“T-Thank you. For, you know, saying I’m worthy of being on the team.”

Kylan laughed lightly. “We’re not friends, puppy,” he reminded me. “Don’t get it twisted.”

He kept walking, but I wasn’t finished—so I hurried after him. “Well, it was still nice of you. Even if you’re just pretending not to care,” I spoke, frustrated.

Kylan smirked beside me. “Enlighten me please, why would I care?”

I sucked my teeth, bothered by his change of attitude. “So, what? You’re too cool to be nice to people again?”

Kylan glanced at me sideways, his smirk never fading. “Nice isn’t really my thing. You should know that by now, Puppy.”

“And here I thought we were bonding?”

“Bonding? Let’s not get carried away,” Kylan snorted. “And you still haven’t

  • The Lycan Prince’s Puppy   Chapter 242

    VioletAs soon as the door slammed shut behind us, we were back in the cramped space of the tower. For some reason, I felt lighter…better. Maybe it was because I had done what I came here to do, or maybe because it went better than I expected.Speaking up had always been a hard thing for me, but if I was capable of doing this, drawing a line with Kayden, then that meant I could also speak to the council. I believed I could do it.“This button is pissing me off!” Trinity snapped, tapping the elevator button repeatedly. She released a loud groan as the doors finally opened, and as soon as we stepped in, I barely waited for them to close before asking the question that had been on my mind.“And?”Trinity lifted a brow. “And?”“Your opinion on him,” I pressed. “Kayden.”Trinity hummed, thinking about her next words. “My opinion,” she began, “is that deep down, he seems like a very sweet guy. A little lonely. Like he just wants someone to talk to.”That…surprised me.Because I was so convi

    VioletI didn’t answer him. For a moment, he said nothing. When he realized I wasn’t going to respond, he tapped his fingers on the armrest.“Now,” he said quietly, “the council? That’s interesting.”“Yes.”His expression sharpened. “And what will you tell them about me?” he asked with a shrug. A teasing grin appeared through his hardened expression. I was no surprise he was probably nervous.He was wondering what I would say about Lady Mona, about him, and everything he had told me, including his dreams or visions or whatever they were.“Nothing much,” I said honestly. “I came to tell you that I won’t throw you under the bus. I’m not interested in whatever family drama you’ve got going on. But I will help these people, and I’ll do it the best way I know how…my way.”Kylan and I hadn’t talked about Kayden yet, but I was sure he would agree. From what I could tell, he wanted to handle his brother himself. To be honest, I didn’t care if the two of them worked it out over a game of chess

    VioletI smiled at him, trying to act casual even though there was a lump in my throat. “Well, that depends,” I said. I almost sounded like Kylan for a second—that was his line, not mine. I squinted my eyes at Kayden, tilting my head a little. “What does ‘good’ mean?”His eyes flicked to Trinity, and he gave her a curious look. As bold as Kayden usually was, he was probably wondering why he had sent away his maid while I hadn’t sent away my ‘lady-in-waiting’, but Trinity was so much more than that.She frowned back at him, arms crossed, not even a little bit scared. If anything, her face said go ahead and try me.I looked back and forth between the two of them before softly clearing my throat. “You can just talk freely,” I told him. “I already told her everything there is to know.”For me, that was the first part of drawing a clear line. There would be no secrets between me and Trinity anymore, and I wasn’t going to start hiding things with him either. Kayden didn’t respond right away

    Violet“This Kayden guy has lost it, hasn’t he?” Trinity whispered. We had skipped the East Wing for the time being and went back to her room for some privacy. That’s where I told her everything. All of it.I told her about Kayden seeing my eyes, the witches in the mountains, the strange raven, Kayden’s twisted request, and the council meeting.The only part I left out was what he said about being reborn. I was scared Trinity might actually snap if I told her that. With every word I said, her eyes got wider. I was starting to worry they might pop out.“And you want to go back and explain to him why you won’t use your eyes?” she asked as we stepped out of the room again. She leaned in a little so the nearby guards couldn’t hear. “The only thing you should ask him is which hand he wants me to slap him with. My right hand or my left or both!”I laughed at her simple solution. “Don’t tempt me,” I muttered, shaking my head.There were a lot of reasons running through my mind for why I shou

    Violet“What?” I shook my head in disbelief. “You want me to…speak in front of them? Me?”“You said you wanted to help without making your eyes glow, and I agreed to help you,” Kylan pointed out. “This is how.”My throat tightened, my heart pounded. I could barely open my mouth to greet anyone at the feast, where I had also failed to give a speech. How could he possibly believe I was capable of even uttering a word during a council meeting?And most importantly…“Will the king be there?”“He is the king,” Kylan lifted his shoulders. “Of course he will be there.”My lips parted again, but the words refused to come. I kept waiting for him to laugh, to tell me it was all some kind of joke, but there was still nothing. “Why me?” I asked. “Why do I have to be the one to do the talking?”Kylan kept his eyes on mine. There was something steady in them, something that told me this wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment decision. He had thought this through.“When I was younger,” he began, “and I wanted

    VioletA soft groan slipped past my lips as the bright morning sun hit me. The first thing my hand reached for was the empty spot beside me, and then I heard quiet footsteps through the room.I knew it was Kylan, and I was certain he wasn’t trying to wake me. Curious, I peeked one eye open, just enough to watch him through my lashes.What would he be up to today?His back was turned toward me as he stood in front of the window, and I could not stop staring at him, thinking about yesterday.Yesterday was definitely something. I had come clean to him about the information I withheld from him, and he was deeply disappointed, and rightfully so. We had talked about the Kayden situation, came to the conclusion that we didn’t see eye to eye, but I couldn’t say it was an argument.After everything that was said, he walked out because he needed some space, but as soon as that door closed, I did the one thing I swore I wouldn’t.I broke down.At first, I wasn’t even sure why. I thought it was b
