The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. What Is This
[Diego’s POV]I slam my fists against the invisible wall in front of me while my gaze stays fixed on the woman as she examines the ball of dark energy. What the hell was she even doing, and what was this thing keeping me away?‘We need to help her,’ Chanel announces in my mind. ‘But there seems to be a barrier.’‘Do you think some barrier can keep me out?’ I growl in response.Letting out a growl of rage, I draw on all my energy and increase my attack. With each hit, I can feel the barrier growing weaker and weaker, but before I can actually get it to give way and allow me to enter, the woman moves forward, pressing her nose against the ball of energy.Immediately, her body begins to glow with a purplish hue, and I can almost physically feel her life force beginning to fade. And with it, I can also feel something in me beginning to shift while my lycan becomes restless. What the hell was this?As this thought hits me, the woman’s body drops to the ground, but she presses herself again
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. A Strange Urge
[Diego’s POV]I don’t bother thinking much of Chanel’s words as she heads out to help Clement and healer Murdoch. There really wasn’t any point in it anyway; that woman talked for the hell of talking most of the time.Tearing my gaze away from the direction she disappeared, I look at the woman who remains unconscious. Despite the black marks still marring her skin, her complexion was getting better.That’s good. I think inwardly and then immediately freeze.“What the hell?”Why would I give a damn whether or not she was alright? Since she did what she was meant to do, our companionship would end here. I didn’t need her anymore and could go back to my mundane days. At least, that was what I wanted to think. However, as this thought hits me, I feel that annoying sensation in my chest once again.Frowning, I reach out and press a finger against the woman’s cheek so that once again I feel just how hot her skin is.“I must be losing it,” I grumble, trailing it along her skin until it reach
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. Their Past
[Diego’s POV]I stand outside, breathing in the air, in an attempt to clear the smell of blood and decay from my nose. Chanel, who stands beside me, keeps her gaze fixed on me, and when I can’t take it anymore, I let my eyes meet hers.“What?” I demand. “Why are you looking at me like that?”“What do you plan on doing with Anthrose?”Flinching, I remember the miserable man inside the barracks who looks as if he has seen much and find my mind wandering. Why was he even there to start with? Especially after he up and left the way he did.“Why should I care?” I respond, trying to keep the betrayal I feel from bubbling to the surface. “Anthrose stopped being my problem long ago.”For a moment, Chanel doesn’t speak as her eyes examine my face, looking for some sign that I’m not being serious, but when she doesn’t find it, she lets out a sigh.“You really aren’t honest,” she says, patting my shoulder. “Whether you’re still holding a grudge or not, he was once your master, and you wouldn’t b
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. A Stale-Mate
[Rosalie’s POV]My heart hurts, and I don’t quite understand why. Since the start, I knew this was the reason I was here—nothing more and nothing less—yet to hear it straight out of his lips again and again hurt like hell.“It’s good that you understand,” Diego says. “Now, you should continue to rest.”“Roger that,” I sigh, snuggling into my blanket and turning over so that my back is to him. “I was just about to do that anyway.”I was being petty; even I knew that, and honestly, I was sure that Diego was seeing me as some bratty kid with the way I was acting.“Then I’ll be leaving.”Nodding, I don’t bother saying anything as I close my eyes and listen to the sound of Diego making his way out of the hut so that I’m left alone.For the next few days, Diego doesn’t return, and the only company I have is healer Murdoch, who keeps a close eye on me. Of course, I expected the elder to stick close, but I didn’t expect Chanel to also do the same.On the first day, I didn’t really mind her pr
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. His Reason
[Diego’s POV]I shoot a glare at the woman who sits silently with her determined gaze fixed on Anthrose. Who was she to even stick her nose in our business? This was between us, and she had no place in it.“There’s no…” I begin, but stop as Chanel shoots me an annoyed look.“I’m with cute Rosalie,” she says, throwing her arms around the woman’s shoulders. “I think that instead of continuing with this pissing contest, we should get Anthrose’s side on this whole thing.”Annoyance flashes through me at her words, and I turn my gaze to Anthrose, who quietly listens to our discussion. Releasing him, I step back and narrow my gaze while wondering if the stubborn bastard was going to try to defend himself, but he doesn’t speak a word.“I think that is enough of an explanation,” I say slowly, tearing my gaze away from him and turning it to Chanel. “Anything else you want to try?”“Anthrose,” Chanel says slowly, her voice giving way to her true emotions. “Please, why don’t you tell us the trut
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. Her Arrival
[Diego’s POV]“Quit being absurd.”As I speak, the woman’s eyes come to rest on me as she gives me a look of confusion. Even this new look causes that strange stirring to erupt, but before it can grow, I tear my gaze away.“Right, I’m crazy,” Chanel cackles, not missing the moment. “And since you’re here, I think that Anthrose and I will take our leave.”“Where are you going?” I ask as Chanel wraps her arms around Anthrose’s. “Didn’t you bring him here because he needs treatment?”“Of course not,” Chanel responds. “I brought him here so he could properly thank dear Rosalie. If it wasn’t for her helping him, he would most certainly end up like the rest.”At her words, the woman flinches, and I realize that she isn’t aware of the fate of the infected. Since she was stuck in this place, she didn’t know a thing about what was going on outside of these four walls.“What happened to them?” She asks, her face falling. “Did they not get better?”“They’re….” Chanel begins, but stops as I shake
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. The Blood Moon
[Rosalie’s POV]I remain silent as Diego leads out the dark-haired beauty who appeared out of nowhere. It leaves me with an odd feeling in my chest. Maybe it was because of how strange Diego was acting earlier on, or maybe it was just my selfishness.Sighing, I tear my gaze away from the direction they left and flop down in my bed while pushing the sensation away.“Whatever they’re doing doesn’t concern you,” I murmur, tugging my blanket to my chin and rolling over so that my back is to the door. “Stop expecting things.”As the words leave my lips, I close my eyes and begin to let myself drift.When I wake up the next morning, Diego still hasn’t returned, but healer Murdoch and his assistant Clement have. Their presence is a welcome distraction from the torrent of emotions I’m feeling, and when Chanel appears with Anthrose in tow, any remaining uneasiness disappears and is replaced by anxiety.“Don’t worry,” Chanel giggles as I warily watch Anthrose. “This big bad wolf has promised to
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. Her Past
[Rosalie’s POV]The room around me grows quiet as Chanel and Anthrose consider my words. Although Diego was more or less aware of the reason I was in prison, these two probably weren't. Well, I guess this would decide whether or not they both would choose to continue having something to do with me.“You,” Anthrose says, breaking the silence. “A scrawny thing like you managed to kill three grown men? Were they omegas?”“No,” I respond, bristling. “One was an alpha and my husband at the time. The other two were his beta and delta.”Nodding, Anthrose once again ponders over what I’m telling him, but instead of the look of hatred I became used to, his features showed pity. Was this man actually feeling bad for me after knowing that I was a murderer?“They did something to you, right?” Chanel asks, pulling me closer to her. “That had to be the reason you did it, right?”“They…” I begin as images of that time begin to emerge. As they become more and more vivid, the feelings of fear and help
