The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin Chapter 56

A Heart to Heart

SKYLA.

It’s much later, and I am irritated to find I have to stay at the hospital, but after arguing with Mama and Dad for a few minutes I was too exhausted to continue and had simply laid down again, giving them a glare and ignoring them.

I had spoken to Azura, Kataleya and Song on video call earlier, which had been nice. Uncle and Winona had left after an hour, too.


It’s been a few hours since I shut my eyes as I pretend to sleep with Malevolent in my arms as I cuddle her. But, I’m unable to sleep, despite how weak and exhausted I feel.

Mama is sitting in the chair beside the bed, whilst Dad is out trying to hunt for clues.

“So want to tell me about him?” Mama asks.

She knows I am awake. 1

I open my eyes, looking across to her in the room that is only lit by the light coming through the glass above the door.

“There’s nothing to say.” I reply softly.

I mean, I slept with his brother. I also thought I liked his brother, who I’ve been flirting with all through the summer holidays Urgh That is something I am going to have to address with Royce… this isn’t like the last times that I’ve been in relationships. There’s more to it, so much more to Royce.

“Isn’t there? I won’t judge.” Mama says, crossing her legs as she leans forward.

I laugh. “Yeah, I mean aside from Dad, did you ever fuck stuff up or, like, fuck with other people that could affect things with Dad or others who are important to you?”

Mama smiles softly before she sighs. “Yes… yes, I have. I was pretty reckless at your age, and I acted on emotion. I did something really stupid once… something I never

should have and in the process, I did hurt your dad, badly. He didn’t make matters easier at the time, agreeing to marry someone else and I was hurt and acted stupidly, but it’s something I know hurt him. for a while.

Wow.

“Now I want to know who you banged.” I say suspiciously. 2

Mama raises an eyebrow, and I know that is something I won’t ever learn.

Dammit.

“So, tell me, why is it complicated with Royce? You two seem very much in love.”

She says, ruffling her long hair.

I sigh. “Royce is a good boy.”

I scrunch my nose up, mulling over Royce. My hair falls across my face, but I don’t bother pushing it back and Mama smiles amused, as she watches me.

“I never knew you liked good boys.” She teases, reaching over and brushing my hair off my face.

“I didn’t either… But he doesn’t fear me, he doesn’t treat me like I’m a problem and above all, he has this calmness around him that…” I suddenly feel emotional, an influx of feelings hitting me as I try to voice the words that I dare not speak. I take a deep, shaky breath and close my eyes for a moment. “When I’m with him, I don’t feel like I’m drowning in my emotions, and I don’t feel suffocated. I feel light, I feel like I can be me, without something bad

happening. Like I know he’ll be there to fix… fuck.” 1

I turn onto my back, looking the other way, not wanting her to see my tears. I hear her getting up and adjusting the bed into an upright position.
