His Miracle Luna-the Forsaken Lycan Queen

The Abandoned Lycan Queen Novel 24

Chapter 24

Deacon's POV

There it was again, that bright smile that seemingly reached the sky, those sparkling eyes like stars, and that joyful laugh that could liven up even the crying clouds.

I was breathing heavily as I walked toward Elena, who had Herself carelessly slammed on the ground, back leaning on a post log with one leg stretched out while the other bent with her elbow leaning on it as she drank water from the bottle so carelessly that some water spilled to her face.

Caressing her cheek after I've wiped her face clean, I praised her for killing hundreds of Rogues, which was probably triple what my average warrior managed to do.
