The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin Chapter 24

A Dance

SKYLA.

Night has fallen, and I am getting dressed for dinner with Dad, Kat, and Royce. I don’t know why Dad invited him, but it makes me wonder if he ended up hearing us in the

He had had to step back at the last moment, and if he hadn’t, I would have scarred that sexy body of his permanently.

“Am I?” I scoff in disbelief. “You’re delusional, or plain stupid.”
