Chapter 26: Avalyn's POV I thought he had been angry with me especially after he caught Dawn and me in the garden. But as his fingers moved in and out of me, my brain melted. Nothing else made sense other than the immeasurable pleasure I was feeling from the ministration he was giving to me. If this was punishment. I wanted to be punished like this every day. "Ah!" I cried out as his thrust became sharper and faster. My heavy eyes tried to stay open but I failed. "You want to play games don't you?" I heard him whisper and I blinked hard trying to understand what he meant. I know I heard him say something at one point but I was too deep into the sensation for my brain to register whatever it was he said. I could barely keep my eyes open —how could my brain work? He pulled out his fingers from within me and brought them to his mouth. An electric shock passed through my body as I watched him suck his fingers, which were dripping with my juice. My core was still throbbing despite t
Chapter 27: Talon's POV For the last couple of days, I avoided Avalyn. I shouldn't have gone to her that evening. I was troubled and not in the right state of mind. I should have waited for Willow and spoken to her. That was the right thing to do. I felt ashamed of myself. I couldn't face either of them. Not Willow and not Avalyn who was the victim in all these. I tried to focus more on running the kingdom. The rogues had started resurfacing and this time the trouble they caused was even more than the first time. It felt like they had gone to reschedule and replan their attacks to be more effective and productive. As I sat on the throne listening to the council members discuss the matter, my mind took me back to Elizabeth. She was still in the dungeon. The crazy woman! She brought all of this stress to my mind and I was going to keep her there till I had my child —somehow! "My King, the neighboring land got attacked last night. My king, they are moving with so much force, we ha
Chapter 28: Talon's POV "How far gone is she?" I asked as I returned to sit on the bed with her. "Two weeks, my King," Sara said with a smile on her face. A warmth filled my stomach and turned to look at Avalyn. I caught her staring and she quickly averted her eyes away from me. I raised her chin with my fingers. "Why are you hiding your face from me?" I whispered. Sara cleared her throat grabbing her stethoscope from the table. She walked to Dawn's side and tapped her shoulder. "I need your help with something. Come with me," she said. Dawn at first looked confused before she turned to us and her eyes sparkled with understanding. "Oh yeah, sure!" She said and they both scurried out of the ward leaving Avalyn and me. Avalyn still had her eyes staring at her fingers as she pulled at them. "They are gone, you can look at me now..." I said in a low voice as I tried to raise her head again. As I finally managed to raise them and her green eyes met mine, an arrow pierced my heart.
Chapter 29: Avalyn's POV My eyes fluttered awake and there was a pang of hunger hitting the depth of my stomach. I made to move but felt arms around me, and that was when I remembered that Talon had been with me since I fell asleep. "Are you awake now?" He mumbled looking down at me with those dark eyes that sent butterflies down my stomach. I bit down my kip and tried to sit up but he held me back. "Are you okay?" His concerned voice sent heat to my toes. I quickly nodded as I managed to create a little space between us. "I am fine... Ummm... Just hungry," I whispered. He smiled at me and got down from the bed. Then he offered me his hand, "let's take you back to your room. Your friend will bring the food there." Shyly, I placed my hand on his and he held it tight. He led me out of the ward and together we walked to the castle. As we walked I couldn't help but feel eyes piercing into my skin but each time I turned back around, there was no one there. Talon led us to my room an
Chapter 30: Avalyn's POV "Avalyn!" Dawn's screeching voice pulled me out of sleep and I frowned as my eyelids struggled to open my eyes. "Go away..." I mumbled pulling the covers over my head. "Like I listen to that! Get up!" She yelled and I could hear the laughter in her voice but I wasn't just in the mood. Ever since we had that conversation concerning the baby, I have been unable to take it out of my head. Each time I felt a movement, I was overwhelmed with the thought that the child was trying to kill me. Werewolves could be human, I told myself over and over, yet I got reminded of their ability to turn as well. Sara already told me that werewolves weren't born in their wolf form but I found that hard to believe. I kept having dreams and thoughts that it would transform and have a go at me with its sharp claws. To make it all worse, Talon was no ordinary Wolf. He was a Lycan. It meant he was stronger than the average wolf. His offspring would be equally strong and unpredict
Chapter 31: Avalyn's POV "This is treason, Avalyn. If someone else sees this with you, they will consider it treason! Do you know how long we have all been waiting for an heir to be born to King Talon?" I felt tears begin to build at the corners of my eyes. My hands started shaking and the pills dropped off my hands. Cassie wasn't shouting or yelling, but each word she said sank deep into my soul. I had managed to get Talon to let me leave, what if he had seen this with me, what would have become of me? "It isn't mine... I swear..." I choked as the first of the tears dropped down my cheeks. "I... We— it was on the ground and I thought it was a sort of supplement for pregnant women...." I tried to explain despite the large lump that sat in my throat. If she didn't believe me, she would tell Greg and he would tell Talon, then that would be my end. "I swear I was going to ask Sara about it. I didn't plan on taking it... I— I was going to ask Sara... Please believe me..." Dawn stepp
Chapter 32: Talon's POV Greg and I were buried in the maps of the area when the door burst open and a breathless Dawn stepped in. "Forgive me My King, but I need to speak to the Beta. It is very urgent," she said in one rushed breath. We turned our heads at the same time and as much as I wanted to let him go speak to his sister in private, I had a bitter feeling this had something to do with Avalyn. "Speak out girl. You don't need to go into hiding for your voice to be heard," I growled. Her eyes flashed in panic as she turned to her brother for help. But he gave one look at me and he knew I was going to change my mind. He nodded at her and she stepped forward. "My king, we found a pack of medication at the guard's quarters that terminates—" she paused and looked up at her brother before swallowing the lump in her throat. "It terminates pregnancies." My brows furrowed at the term pregnancy and I straightened up at once. "Where is Avalyn?" I growled as my fist folded on their ow
Chapter 33: Talon's POV I left the door open and returned to the room to put some clothes on. My frown permanently sat on my face as I fought with the pants and finally the shirt that followed. "Alpha Trevor and Montgomery are here?" Willow asked and I grunted a reply. Suddenly I felt her soft hands on my back and I felt my inside soften at her action. I turned to her and she cupped my face between her hands. "Talon, you know we need them for the war against the rogues. Play nice," she said and placed a soft kiss on my lips. "I know Montgomery is going to try his best to get on your nerves, the boy enjoys it. Please just try to ignore him," she added. I pulled her face closer and kissed her deeply. "I'll do anything for you my love," I whispered as I kissed her again. She chuckled against my kiss before pushing me away. "Our guests are waiting." I groaned against her lips and reluctantly pulled away from her. I moved to the door and found Greg waiting with a smirk on his face.
