The Mad Lycan Plus-Size Mate
It sounded like tearing iron.
Valerius.
I scrambled off the bed, my feet hitting the cold floor. Another crash shook the wall, the sound of stone cracking.
I ran to the oak door, placing my ear against the wood. I could hear heavy, ragged breathing on the other side. A wet, painful rasping sound, like someone choking on their own blood.
“Go to bed, Serenity.”
I reached for the brass bolt. My thumb rested on the cold metal.
If I opened that door, he could kill me. He was twice my size, packed with raw Lycan power, and out of his mind with bloodlust. I had a contract. I wasn't his real wife. I could just sit in my room and wait for morning.
