Chosen By The Moon

Chapter 85

Dylan POV.

I couldn’t do anything but stand and watch as King Josh stalked towards me, all of my resilience completely dissolved upon seeing him, and with it my body began to tremble. I instantly got on my knee in a very low bow, and waited until he was directly in front of me.

The dowager king spoke as he looked at me, I hadn’t felt that scared in a month, but standing in the throne room with all the wolves was terrifying.
