All Chapters of The Lycan Prince’s Puppy: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

VioletI blinked a few times, hoping it would somehow make her forget what she had asked me in the first place, but it didn’t. Trinity was as sharp as ever.“The Varius guy,” she said again, her tone growing slightly impatient. “What did he want from you just now?”I pursed my lips, shaking my head quickly. “Nothing. He was just saying goodbye.”My heart had not changed. I still didn’t want to trouble her with my problems. I didn’t even know how to deal with the warning myself, and my thoughts were scattered. The last thing I wanted was to for Trinity to have to deal with that as well.“I can tell something is going on, Violet,” Trinity said softly. She let out a breath and paused, giving me space to answer, but the sadness in her eyes stung. “If you would rather not tell me, that’s alright. I understand…”Before she could say more, I grabbed her arm and pulled her closer. My voice dropped to a whisper as I glanced around to make sure no one was listening. “I met my dad in the Veil la

KylanViolet gave me a look, and in that one glance I knew exactly what she was doing. She was too busy trying not to betray anyone. I could see it so clearly, and it was what I had feared the most.With every choice she made, she asked herself if she had betrayed someone. Maybe even me.Just the thought hurt, because I never wanted her to wonder that. Yes, I had shown my disappointment when she lied to me, but I never wanted her to bear that burden.“Jack,” the king clicked his tongue and snapped his fingers in the air. “Take your wife and your daughter with you on your way down,” he ordered. “For…the Royal Mate.”Jack chuckled under his breath. “Yes, Your Majesty,” he said. He patted Nate’s back, grinning from ear to ear as if the king had just given him a day off. “Gladly!”“What?” a sharp voice cut through. Chrystal stepped out from where she had been hiding. Her eyes were wide with shock, her lips parted in disbelief. She looked like she could not believe what she had just heard.

VioletMy feet were glued to the ground as Thorne’s dark eyes narrowed, and before I could even react, the raven lunged for us.My eyes went wide, and Kylan reacted fast. He shot his arm out, pushing me behind his back so hard I nearly stumbled over my own feet.My heart was already pounding when Thorne dove lower, but Kylan raised his hand. Just as he was about to reach for his wing, something small and fast moved first.Jumpie jumped into the air and whipped her tail, smacking right across Thorne’s face. Thorne let out a painful screech, a few feathers falling down as he hurried back into the air. It had all happened so fast it made the entire crowd gasp.I blinked, stunned. I knew Thorne could get a bit strange, but did that just really happen?Kylan gave a surprised chuckle, patting Jumpie on his shoulder. “I think you just saved a life, Jumpie,” he said, then locked his eyes on mine. “Because I was about to kill that thing.”His expression said it all.What the hell was that?I d

VioletNot even his own blood?He squeezed his eyes as those last words left his mouth. To any other ear, it might’ve sounded innocent, but to Kylan, it didn’t. Kayden’s words had a double meaning, and he was referring to what happened at the battle. It was an unfair and twisted move.The children bounced and squealed with excitement, but Kylan shot daggers at Kayden. During the Elite challenge in the woods, he had claimed his brother held no resentment toward him. Yet now Kayden was growing bolder by the second, showing that he, in fact, did blame him for everything.It was almost like a direct attack, as if to say, You paralyzed me, and I am this close to telling everyone. What will you do about it?Kylan’s hand tightened around mine. He wasn’t holding on for himself, but probably for the sake of everyone. Including Kayden, and not giving him the reaction he wanted.Kylan was too controlled for that, but I didn’t know how long it would last because Kayden had really been pushing it.

Violet“Kylan!” I gasped, spinning to him.Kylan’s blunt solution made Kayden release a growl. Varius didn’t look as surprised.“I think you should consider it,” Kylan shrugged, as if he had just made the simplest suggestion in the world.Varius let out a low chuckle. “And abandon these mountains again?” His eyes hardened, though his tone remained calm. “No. You don’t seem to know the way of the witches, crown prince, but these are our mountains, and you would have to drag these witches out of here.”My chest ached hearing that. They were stubborn, loyal, bound to these mountains, even if it killed them. And you know what? I respected it.At the end of the day, these were Lyperians, and these were their mountains.“It’s not what I want either, but I cannot help you with the stone. You haven’t given me any reason to trust you. There are many things here to consider,” Kylan said coldly. “I apologize for what the king has done to you and your people. They didn’t deserve that, and if nece
