The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation by Luna Nova

Chapter 34

34 THE FROMISE THE PROMISE VALERIA I felt him freere , his lips brushing against my scarred cheek .

I thought he would withdraw , upset by my rejection , storming off like the ogre he usually was .

But Ive never been able to fully understand the King he remains a mystery to me .

A soft kiss landed on my scarred check , sending a shiver though my sensitive skin .

It felt more intimate than kissing on the lips .

My chest fluttered nervously .

He exhaled deeply and finally let me go .

The coldness immediately invaded my body without his erbrace .

Fine .

I understand your decision and that youre angry .

I wont force you into anything you dont want , he said quietly , and I thought this dramatic moment was finally over , that he would retreat to his room .

Instead , he walked to the old floral armchair near the bed and sat down calmly , crossing his legs and picking up a sewing book from the bedside table .

What are you doing , Your Majesty ? Is there something else you need ? I asked , confused by his actions .

No , I dont need anything .

Go on with your business , he replied without lifting his gaze from the yellowed pages .

Youre in my room , I pointed out logically , as if speaking to a fool .

Yes , and ? Im the master of this entire castle , including this room .

Ive decided I want to read this book here now , he said nonchalantly , and I wanted to scream in his smug face and hurl insults at him .

He didnt even look at me , continuing to pretend to read about sewing the book was upside down ! Idiot king , arrogant , overbearing , dominant ! Aaaagh , how Id love to bite him ! Fine , if he wants war , then war hell get .

Im not giving in to his whims this time .
