The Lycan King's Captive
I shook my head frantically, trying to remove the unwanted memories.
I pulled a volume from the shelf at random, carrying it to a nearby reading chair positioned beneath a lamp. The leather was worn smooth with age, the pages yellowed but still crisp. A history of the Great Wars, written centuries ago.
I lost myself in the text, my troubles temporarily forgotten as I absorbed tales of ancient battles and long-dead heroes. When that book was finished, I found another. Then another.
It was in a section labeled "Bloodlines and Legacy" that I found something that made my heart race.
