Semua Bab The Lycan King's Forbidden Craving : Bab 31 - Bab 40

Valkyrie noticed the tension radiating from the King. She followed his gaze and saw Arianna speaking with the slave master. Anger rose in her chest.She had purposely walked with the King to show Arianna who truly belonged by his side, but her efforts were slipping away. Why was the King staring at her?Determined to divert his attention, she spoke up."Shall we—""I'll head back to my chamber," Duncan cut her off and walked away.Valkyrie's gaze snapped back to Arianna. That girl annoyed her for no good reason.Then a thought crossed her mind, and she smirked. It had been a while since she taught that bitch a lesson—now was the time.•••••••••By evening, Arianna was done with all her work. As she started to head to her chamber, a maid approached her."The King summoned you."Sighing, Arianna turned toward the King’s chamber instead, her mind still reeling from the scene of the King with his betrothed earlier that day, wondering why he wanted to see her tonight.Was he going to show

{NEXT MORNING}Lylah's head snapped up at the aroma of a meal drawing close. A maid appeared at her cell with a tray of food.Lylah's stomach growled in response.The guard unlocked the gate, allowing the maid to step inside.Even though Lylah was starving, she was surprised that the handsome Lord had actually ordered food to be brought to her.The maid gently placed the tray before her. It was the same maid who had brought her food when she was still confined in the room. The man gave her a knowing shake of head before leaving the cell.Lylah drew the meal closer and took a bite."I thought Mr. Handsome Lord was going to starve me to death as punishment," she mumbled with her mouth full. "I guess he's not all grumpy after all."She took another bite, nodding as the flavors spread in her mouth. "Tasty, but not like the one at home..." Her gaze turned serious. "I'm going to execute my plan tonight. I just hope I don’t end up dead before I see Aria."She took another bite, strategizing

Lylah stared at the different weapons set before her—swords, axes, spears, daggers of all kinds—all polished.Slowly, the weight of her decision sank into her chest, choking her.She glanced at the Grand Lord, who was giving orders to a warrior that stood listening with full attention.Lylah swallowed at the sight of Lucas’s built form, muscles rippling beneath his skin underneath his loose tunic. He was utterly terrifying—the second strongest Lycan in the realm.She recalled how he had struck the maid earlier, how the impact had thrown her across the space. The sickening bone cracking, The blood, the bruises, the swollen face…Was she going to survive this? Hell! She didn’t even have a wolf to heal her. And the male doesn't seem to care. How could he? She was the one who bought this up anyway.A sigh left her lips as she returned her gaze to the weapons. The warrior presenting them said nothing, only stared with a slight of pity.Clearing her throat, she reached for a dagger—sharp,

Palace."She is suffering from malnutrition. It's been a long time since this little lady here had a proper meal," the young healer explained, and Arianna glanced over at Lylah sleeping on the bed.She could tell the healer was right. Lylah had fainted in her arms after they had hugged and cried together, and she'd been sleeping for most of the day."The medicine will help her broken rib heal faster. You need not worry, what she needs most is rest.""Thank you. I'll come visit again," Arianna replied, and as the healer left, she ran her fingers through her sister's hair."I'm so glad you're okay and a little bit mad that you put your life in danger. Do you really think I'd be happy seeing you suffer like this?"Arianna bit her lip, watching the rise and fall of her sister's chest for a while before stepping out to head back to her work.The slaves, maids, and soldiers were extra busy today, as the Grand Festival was only a few days away.The Grand Festival at the Lunaris Citadel was a

Lord Lucas turned another girl into a warrior after only one spar? Meanwhile, she on the other hand fought with everything she had, nearly dying, yet the Beta never gave her a chance.Brigid's fists clenched as the healer tended to her wounds. She could hear the whispers around the room... the news was spreading like wildfire.Brigid had been unable to witness the fight because she had passed out after the strange little girl entered to challenge the Grand Lord.But when she heard what had happened, it only made her blood boil.The Grand Lord made the girl win."All done," the healer said, and Brigid immediately put on her clothes. "Madam Selene will get mad if she hears about this.""Where is the girl?" Brigid asked the healer, her hand clenching secretly as she stared into space."You mean the girl who sparred with the Grand Lord?"Brigid hummed in response."She's in that room," the healer pointed to the room across from them."How badly is she injured?""Just a broken rib.
