The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin by Moonlight Muse Chapter 100

16. In the Courtroom

SKYLA.

The courtroom is dark and almost ominous. It makes me feel like I’ve committed a crime and I’m here to be sentenced. Well, I kind of fucking am thanks to stupid Heather, the fucking Feather-Brained twit.

Last night’s revelations had kept me up all night. That prophecy of Heaven’s was fucking intense and the fact she is going through that kind of heavy shit at that age is fucking unfair.

I had filled Royce in on everything, well we kinda had a video chat, me, him, Leo, Azura and Kat.

We had spent hours discussing it, and once we had switched off, he had stayed on the phone all night with me.

Talking, flirting and maybe a little bit of dirty talking. Even when I fell asleep he didn’t switch it off. In the morning when he heard me wake up his ‘good morning’ in that deep husky morning voice of his had made me wish he was here so I could kiss him hard and fuck him.

I miss you, Magic Fingers.

I’m wearing a black high-neck ribbed top, leather pants and boots.

The little brat is already sitting there with her parents. I fucking feel damn petty, but seeing Heather sitting there looking all scared only made me stare at her a little more.

I’m mad at her, sure she probably didn’t see the fucking death-noodle, but she did not get attacked by a bright white Lycan. Like fuck, how do you confuse that shit?

“It’s going to be alright.” Dad says.

He, Liam and Raihana are by my side, and I’m glad they are.

The girls, Azura, Kat and Song, had messaged earlier to wish me all the best and good luck. Think I’m going to need more than that shit with how uneasy I’m fucking feeling.

Mama Red,Aunty Raven and Uncle Chris had all called too, but honestly, it’s just making me feel like this shit is fucking bad…

I’m not sure what to make of the others already gathered here.

Rivers is here too, the dumb cunt. Those on the jury are seated. Some of them are from the councils, others are not. Dad would usually be there, but because I am his daughter, he couldn’t.

Grandad Elijah will be joining though, and Allen, an old Alpha who has been by Dad’s side for ages, is on the panel too.

Then we have the witches. I see Sephora there, and another two. So Janaina won’t be… Fuck, why do I feel like shit isn’t on my side.

My phone begins ringing and I take it out of my pocket. As much as I want it to be Royce, I know he wouldn’t risk giving me a call whilst I’m here in this room.

He had already talked to me on the way here, and he was about to catch his flight… fuck.

He had wanted to delay until after the trial, but Dad and Leo had said he should go and had practically forced him, saying they’ll keep him updated.

Dante?

The phone rings and I answer it.
