Semua Bab Lycan Little Prey : Bab 21 - Bab 30

ARYA I stared at him. I hated how he said my name. Soft, careful, like I was some fragile thing instead of a ticking bomb covered in bruises. His hand was still on my face, thumb resting just beneath my cheekbone like he had the right to touch me, like we weren’t strangers tied by duty and rage and a deal that never included feelings. I slapped his hand away. Not hard. But hard enough to mean it. “Don’t,” I muttered, my voice thick and hoarse. “Don’t pretend to give a damn.” Kai didn’t move. Didn’t flinch. Just waited. “You don’t get to play the concerned fiancé now,” I said, the words gaining volume as I stood again—wobbling but standing. “You hate me. I know you do.” “Arya.” “No,” I snapped. “You don’t have to lie. Not here. Not behind closed doors.” The lump in my throat was sharp, but I forced it down, holding onto my fury like a lifeline. “If I died yesterday, you would’ve thrown my body in a ditch and found someone more proper to play Luna for your pre

ARYA “Kai, you're going to regret ever doing this.” Hunter snapped and I gulped as I watched his daughter, Olive trying to stop him talking. What exactly was their benefit if Kai married their daughter or not? Yes, they would merge packs, they would become one strong beautiful alliance but all for what? And Olive didn't look like she gave two flying fucks about Kai and getting married to him. In my opinion, she isn't even that interested with the arrangement. “Hunter. You should know by now that the only reason you're still standing here, and making me lose every fucking ounce of my patience is my respect for you. Don't lose it. Hold on to it while you still can.” Kai retorted and pulled me in closer, dragging me though not violently to the front. “This is Arya, your new acting luna.” He declared and the applause started off as a murmur before the sound of hands jamming together in a clap became louder thajn a battle cry. After the announcement and introduction, we had to have di

Lycan King Kai "I'm really trying to understand this. You're dating a peasant and what is this she says of you both getting married because that is just not possible." I leaned on the wall just letting her have her moment of crash out because she look alike she needs it to be able to survive this whole conversation. "It's not really science and you're not the one getting married so you shouldn't think long and hard on it like that." She looked like she would pass out as she sat on the seat just peering at me like it would be her greatest joy if I just told he it was all a facade. "You are supposed to get married to my daughter." She stated, stomping her feet as she hit the table dramatically. "That table cost a lot. Wouldn't want to ruin it." I gestured towards the table and I think it pissed her off the more as she only slammed it further. "You can have your moment." I simply nodded and she took a deep breath turning to stare at me. "I wonder why I'm troubled. You wouldn'

KAI “So let's agree that Bria tried to kill you, yeah? What would you gain from hurting her?” She smiled. That little chuckle that didn't last more than a second. She leaned back, crossing one leg over the other, her smile sharp enough to slice glass as shs let her fingers roam in Bria's hair before she shrugged her shoulders. "What would I gain? Peace and quiet, maybe. But I’m not that bored." She tilted her head, eyes flicking to her brother and then back to me like she was bored of the whole conversation already. “I would have gained solitude and perhaps satisfaction too just to top it off.” She added and then swallowed hard while I raised my brows, my eyes flicking over to Xaden who was almost next to her. She wouldn't know when he would have grabbed her. "But you all already know that I won't kill her, at least not now. If I wanted her gone, trust me, she wouldn’t still be breathing. She’d be a damn cautionary tale.” I paused, letting the silence do its job while I sta

ARYA Elara left after saying that but I wasn't about to let a maids word crawl under my skin so I took my bath with the herb water she had prepared and went back to lay down. But I couldn't sleep. I kept tossing and turning in my bed with different kind of thoughts flooding my mind. I looked out the window and it was dark, already. The pack had gone to sleep, it was dark and eerily quiet. Perfect time for rogues to attack if they wanted to invade the territory. Okay, Arya. Where is that thought coming from? I immediately stood up from the bed gritting my teeth while putting on my flip flops and descended up the floors to the top balcony and onto the roof. At least, I would be able to breathe there. I would feel free and feel like flying at the very least. When I went up there, I didn't realize I had company until I hear someone sigh and turned to see a shadow. Kai? No, it can't be. Since when did he start scenting like cinders and ginger? Cinder and ginger? I tilted my head a
