The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation by Luna Nova

Chapter 8

ALDRIC OUT OF CONTROL VALERIA A strong scent of wine assaulted my senses , making me feel slightly dizzy .

My senses were dulled , and for some reason , my body began to react as if an unbearable heat was consuming me from within .

A heavy steel and wood door blocked my path .

From the other side , I could hear growls and sounds like something or someone scratching the walls or the floor .
