The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation by Luna Nova

Chapter 26

SEDUCTION ALDRIC Seeing Valeria so wounded and vulnerable was breaking my heart while , at the same time , a relentless rage grew inside me .

He was fighting to break free to comfort her , to lick her wounds .

I could feel him scratching at my mind , Trying to take over Being so close to losing her only reinforced my fears She could vanish from my world in an instant , never to return .

I scanned the scene the group of warriors , two naked women clinging to each other , trembling in a corner , mutilated slave , and another lying dead .

The one responsible for all this a Beta wolf , also naked , reeking of sex , fear , and rot .

I let out a low warning growl .

P No one moves from here , especially you , boss .

Ive got your scent , and Ill hunt you down like an animal if you dare take a step away .

The Beta nodded immediately , his red eyes wide with fear , trembling .

Not so cocky now .

1 carried Valeria a bit further from the camage .

Her small body felt so fragile , curled against my massive beastly chest , her arms weakly draped around my neck , her face buried against my collarbone .

She couldnt even meet my gaze before when I was human , yet now she clung to the most terrifying version of me , clearly terrified by the situation .

The scent of bitter chocolate intensified , igniting my desire though I didnt understand why .

Why was her skin so hot ? I reached a small stream I had passed earlier , its banks shaded by dense trees .

It was peaceful enough for us to rest a moment .

Valeria , I called gently , crouching to lay her on the soft grass , leaning her carefully against the tree trunk .

Her watery eyes blinked open , staring at me strangely , as though dazed .

I supposed it was natural having the massive head of a Lycan inches from your face wouldnt exactly be comforting Stay here .
