Semua Bab The Lycan King's Forbidden Craving : Bab 121 - Bab 130

GRAND HALL"By the power bestowed in me, I, King Duncan Thornevale, choose you, Arianna Greystone, as my chosen one-my mate, my future. Let it be known to the realm that I have found the one for me."Lylah's heart swelled at the sight of her sister getting engaged to the King.Months ago, when the same thing had happened with Kael, she was against it-as if she had known that bastard was going to betray Arianna.But now, a part of her was glad he did. Her sister had found her true love.The most unexpected twist she couldn't have imagined.The ruthless Lycan King was the one for Arianna... how lucky.Arianna stood as the most beautiful female in the hall. Her crystal-like gown flowed like a river, hugging her perfect figure and accentuating her beauty.She looked like a goddess. The embroidery was unique, utterly breathtaking.The stylist had truly done an exceptional job.While the priest recited the final words, Duncan whispered beside Arianna."Remember our plan.""Yup. We're going

"Two of them," she replied, her voice barely a whisper. "A girl and a boy. I couldn't see their faces though, but… they were ours and… happy, playing in the garden while we watched."He stayed silent again, and while Arianna tried to read him, they got interrupted by a knock on the door.The guard announced the arrival of Lord Fredrick. Duncan tore his gaze from her to the door momentarily, before shifting it back to Arianna."I’ll be right back," he said to her and rose from the bed, leaving the room.Arianna sat up, staring at the door that closed behind him. Kids with Duncan? The thought of it was... oh, she couldn't describe it, but one thing was clear—she didn't hate it.Now that he had marked her, there was a chance she'd carry his child.Right! The mark!Arianna flung the sheet covering her to one side and rushed to stand before the mirror. She swept her hair aside, and there it was.The mark.Her lips stretched into a smile. It was there. He had marked her.However, her eyes

It had been five days since her betrothal. Duncan watched the passion in Arianna and how she put her all into whatever Selene was teaching her.Her dragon was still not fully connected with her—it was a gradual process due to her Alpha blood, according to Selene. More of her hair had turned silver, but Nyra helped dye it to conceal her identity for now.“She will be great,” Lucas said beside him. Duncan, not realizing when his friend had come to stand next to him, didn’t bother glancing his way, keeping his gaze fixed on Arianna talking with her sister.“I know,” Duncan muttered under his breath.Silence settled between them, both watching the girls.“How is the investigation of that elder going? Have they found the culprit yet?” Duncan asked.“None, Your Highness. I'm still wondering why anyone would abduct one of her pack’s elders,” Lucas sighed.“It’s because of Arianna. They’re trying to dig up something about her,” Duncan replied, recalling Arianna’s mention that the elder had s

One more strike. Lylah’s eyes locked on his ankle. She immediately withdrew the dagger and swung it toward the target, but missed by just an inch.The head warrior leaped back, but not before suffering two cuts—on the wrist and the foot—dangerously close to taking a third strike and losing the match.His veins bulged with with anger.This girl… had just tricked him. She had two daggers, one hidden. She had purposely played weak to get close and make him drop his guard before striking.What a cunning little punk.Jaws dropped. Eyes widened. The scene had played out so fast, it took the crowd a full minute to process it.Those who doubted her were too shocked to speak. It was completely unexpected. A slap to their faces.Lylah had two strikes. One more, and she would win.Lucas’s lips curled up, a flicker of pride dancing in his gaze.The host announced a break. The first round was over.Lylah took a deep breath. The Grand Handsome Lord’s strategy had worked. Damn it! She should’ve been

It had been an hour since the match ended, and the news hung in every inch of the palace. The young wolfess had won against the brute head warrior.The match replayed in the minds of those who had witnessed it, though they were still worried. The girl had been hurt badly during the match.“I can't believe she won,” Hilda said after narrating the whole match to Brigid, who stayed silent while staring into empty space.Lylah won. How had she managed to pull it off?She delivered two strikes in the first round and the final one in the third. Soon, she’d be appointed as a warrior.How could this be happening?“She is still badly injured and is being taken care of by the palace’s best healers,” Hilda continued rambling. “I heard the Grand Lord hasn’t left her side.”Brigid’s eyes finally snapped to her. “What?”Hilda chuckled, pretending to focus on the clothes she was arranging. “You should’ve seen the way the Grand Lord leapt from his seat, ran to her, and roared orders. I’ve never seen
