The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Warren's POV:

Wearing a straight face, I walked along the path in the garden with Flora. It was already our third lap. My palms started to sweat.

So you better give up on whatever that is on your mind, because you can't be with her!" Flora frowned and looked around to make sure that no one was nearby. Then she lowered her voice and said, "Their relationship
