"What happened after?" Lask even though I shouldn't

Hot days from

"He left. For almost two years, we didn't know where he went. When my father tracked him down. He was living in his Lycan form in a cave two hundred miles away from Chilion. Eve begged me not to bring him back, but he was my little brother. And we had been mated for almost two years already. She was five months pregnant. "My mother moved him into the village away from us. He was there a few months before he came to me. He apologized and I thought we were doing great. He comered Eve during one of her art shows and we fought. She was w giving birth to our daughter. "Dad took him up to his study. Mom sent me to pick up Annie from school so they had time to calm him down. She was eight at the time. When I retuned my mother was passed out ut the courtyard surrounded by our guards. I could hear him. screaming inside. He was sitting in fron in front of my bedroom door covered in her bloodl James looked me right in the eyes and said that all of this was my fault. If I had rejected her, he wouldn't have done what he did. 1 attacked him and we fought. He had gone feral in that cave and my father didn't think to tell any of us thinking he would come back when he saw that things were as they should be.

"Talmost killed him. When he woke up again, he swore that he would make my life hell for the rest of our lives. I sent him away against my mother's wishes. She hated Evangeline and passed a law to never mention her again. I told her if she ined to erase her I would do the same to her son."

Just not in front of her. I say trying to lighten the mood. It works because she grins.

I think we've made her suffer enough, he shrugs. "James is really smart. He's very charismatic,

"Yeah, I got that," I agree. "Down to the way he dresses,"

"Right," he nods. "I can't take the throne without a mate. I'm the King in name, but it's not official until I'm fully mated," "We're not fully mated now?"

"No, I mean. We are, but we have to get married through the council of Lycans. You have to take the oath and there lies the problem. James doesn't let us get near the council building. As an alpha and a prince, he has access to the packs all around the world. "It's considered an honor for an alpha to go feral and still be able to control his shift. Even if he's more unstable and crazier. Others like him think he should be the King in my place, but for that, he would have to kill me and he's not strong enough to do it," "Which brings us full circle. Kill your potential mates so you can't ascend the throne," *Correct.

"That's pretty smart. I admit. He laughs. "I mean, it sucks for you. But holy shit. That's brilliant. Not only is he keeping you from becoming the king. The piece of shit is making you look like a ***h," "Right, he says offended.

"I'm on your side, big guy We're team Lycan King, but you gotta give credit where credit is due,

"Perry," he growls. "Shut up,"

"Where is the council building laugh.
