The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 72. His Evil
SKYLA. The darkness that surrounds me is raw, unearthly, and sickly. It’s hard to explain, but it’s like a plague that should never have touched this planet. Apophis’s evil spreads far around us all, but it’s the eyes of the large snake that now burn into me. I sense Royce jump up beside me and I’m glad he’s here. He’s concerned and worried for me and with the fact that we need to be careful how much power we use, I’m worried about him too. Aleric is injured. I can see the wounds on the body of the snake and even Royce has several cuts and bruises. “You’re the third target. Be careful, Love.” He says quietly. I glance at him. ‘Always.’ I say through the mind link, Damn, I’m glad I have that ability. Even if he can’t reply through the mind link, I can at least talk to him. A flash from the crystals beneath me captures my attention and I stare at my reflection. The stripes I had seen earlier have faded, leaving in its place a dark silvery metal coating to my entire body. There
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 73. Head to Head
SKYLA. Here goes nothing... I jump up, feeling the power within me surfacing. My Lycan’s dominant power, embodying it fully, I channel everything I have. ‘You will never win! I destroyed her and her kind a long time ago! A mere wolf is weaker than a tiger! Do you really think you can win?!’ His chilling voice wraps around me as the darkness begins spreading along the ground. The snake and I block and attack one another. He’s trying to get those teeth into me. I can see the poison in them. The darkness around me is also trying to pull me down into that smoking abyss of the ground beneath us. ‘True, in a one-on-one battle, a wolf would lose to a tiger… but that’s the difference between the two species.’ I begin grunting as I manage to slash into his side again. He hisses, as he spins around and lunges at me. I can smell blood in the air, the hissing and shouting of the wolves battling the serpents. People are dying. I hear the shouts as Mama is trying her best to heal. I block b
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 74. Final Moments
CATHERINE. “Mother…” He stands there with a manic glint in his eyes. Where did I go wrong? I cannot accept that this is my Aleric. I step forward, although I know neither Alpha Marcel nor Alpha Liam wanted to bring me here, but I needed to try. I needed to see him. I needed to see this for myself. “I failed you, but if there is even an inch of remorse or regret within you, please stand down,” I say softly, moving towards him when Marcel raises his hand. “Please be careful. Remember, he tried to kill Royce and many others. Winona needs you.” He says quietly, a frown on his face. I look at him and nod. He’s right. Even if I want to do everything I can for Aleric, I need to be there for her too… I walk towards him. “Please stand down, Aleric.” I whisper. His eyes blaze as he staggers back. “Don’t come near me!” He shouts. I refuse to listen to him as I close the gap between us and cup his face. “Please,” I whisper. “You are not this person.” He laughs, throwing his head bac
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 75. The Pain Inside
ROYCE. The only way to end this… is his death. The moment is before me as he lays there bleeding out, and it hurts. Despite everything he has done and I know he deserves what is coming, but… he is still my brother. I look at her as I pass her the sword, hiding the pain in my chest. For her, I need to stay strong. You’ve hidden your emotions for years, Royce. What are a few more moments? I look into her eyes, which are now green, but they remain cat-like. “Let’s do this.” I say. I look at Aleric as he lays there on the floor, trying to get up when he sees us approaching, but he is beyond the point of recovering, and it’s clear Apophis is focusing on the barrier… The darkness that is pushing against the barrier is spreading from Aleric. “Break his tie from this world and it will weaken him.” Skyla murmurs. “For the Gods,” I say quietly as I place my hand over hers. We raise the sword as one and I look down at him. Our eyes meet and I remember the little boy who once played b
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 76. The Sounds of the Night
SKYLA.The moon has risen, but despite the silence of the night, everyone is awake in the Rossi mansion.I can hear the quiet conversations, the deep discussions, the occasional shout.Out here, I can also hear the sound of insects in the garden. The soft wind is blowing through the trees and the passing comments and commands of the guards and others around can be heard.This feeling… it’s unexplainable…I feel… content, sorrowful and…different.I don’t even know how to explain it.I’m sitting on the back steps, staring out into the night sky. I’ve done this so many times in my life, but today I feel like I’m no longer the Sky I once was…My eyes sting and I tug at the sleeves of my long-sleeved top as I exhale slowly.Some things just stay… changing you even.I killed my given mate.It’s… an odd feeling…I know I’m not a monster. I had to do what I had to and to break the hold Apophis had on him, and on this planet, I had to end him.He didn’t care for me, and that was proven in those
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 77. Brother & Sister
SKYLA. The wind blows through my hair as I place a single red rose that I had sprayed the edges with gold paint, with the green leaves and thorns intact on top of Chris’s grave. They brought his body back to Black Storm Territory, even though he was the alpha of the Dark Storm Pack. He was born on Black Storm territory, and Raihana wanted him to rest in the same place as his family, and besides Papa Raf. “No white from me Romeo… you and Ri… you were that couple who were always so damn extra and it fucking looked good on you. So, here’s a rose that stands out…” I lower my head. I promise you, I’ll do my best to be there for these guys, Ri, Tatum, and Heaven. We will fucking be there for them all. And if you do happen to come across Hecate, tell her Skyla Rossi sends her a fuck you. I smirk at my thoughts but it’s no joke, Hecate did us fucking dirty. Jainana had imprisoned herself in one of their secure cells when she learned of the command from Hecate, and although she recovered
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 78. Car Ride
ROYCE. She’s gorgeous. From those long killer legs that are on display, she’s wearing a pleated black skirt and high over-the-knee boots. Those sexy legs always draw my attention. She’s wearing a long-sleeved black fitted top that accentuates those breasts and a tiny waist, but it’s the look in her gorgeous green cat-like eyes that catch my breath. Her eyes never returned to normal, although her armour disappeared at will. Her eyes remained, like her uncle, Liam Westwood, whose eyes were once said to be a cerulean blue like his father. She had been pretty ecstatic when she had realised. I can’t help but smile at the thought of how she had grabbed Malevolent and told her they now looked like proper twins before turning to me and asking if I like a pussycat… The thought sends pleasure rushing south. We haven’t gotten down and dirty yet, but she’s teasing me any moment she gets. We’ve both had a lot on our minds, but even in the darkest of times, she makes me smile. She now saunte
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 79. The Time to Face Him
ROYCE. A week has passed since the funerals of those who lost their lives in that battle. We have also buried Aleric at the borders of the pack, a place that was safe to visit yet away from where the rest of the Ardens were buried. He didn’t earn that right, yet we still kept him on pack grounds where Mom could visit if she so wished. The day after the burials, we had returned to the Arden mansion, and Skyla had come with me. Ready to start her life with me. Although her dad wasn’t too keen on it, he understood and simply told her she will need to attend the Academy until she has takes her exams. But I still liked the fact that my queen will always be beside me. Seeing her belongings in our room, set beside mine, felt good. Her presence is something that lightens up my day and night. Today there are going to be many spectators in the Pack Arena, a place where we held some of our training exams and competitions. However, today it would be used for something entirely different. I
