The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation by Luna Nova

Chapter 69

A SPY IN THE DARK THANE ( The sorcerer who accompanied Darius , the Vampire General ) I had never made such a precise decision in my life .

I never liked Darius extreme methods , but I could only follow his orders .

He was the one in charge , so I forced even more of his life force into that pups already weakened body , fully aware that he wouldnt survive such an aggressive invasion I heard the entire translation of the Altar from the lips of that strange woman because my magic acted as the mediator within the boys body .

When the fighting began , I stayed in the crypt to maintain the portal spell , the one through which General Dariuss men had entered to fight .

Everything went to shit in a heartbeat .

Even though I wasnt physically present , 1 still trembled in fear , watching everything through my shadow magic .

My mind was racing The General was dead , and no one had survived .

Who the hell was that woman ? I didnt know exactly , but I quickly understood one thing the Vampire King would be very interested in knowing what happened here .

And there was now a vacancy for General … one I could possibly fill I stood at the last passage , hidden in a comer they hadnt noticed .

Both women were weak , and the greatest threat was unconscious .

I could strike now .

But then I saw them beginning to flee .

The she wolf was carrying the other one , as if trying to protect her from something or someone .

Escaping from what ? Or from whom ? A deafening roar echoed from somewhere in the distance , making me shudder in fear .

I didnt hesitate another second That woman who had killed the General was important not just because of her powerful transformation but because she could read the Altars .

If the Lycan King found her , he would kill her .

I had to erase the evidence of what happened here .

If she survived , she could still be captured later .
