The Lycan King 42. The Black Thing
Avalyn The conference room Nik led me to was on the same floor. It was a big room with a big U-shaped table facing a projector screen. The seats were occupied by a mix of middle and old-aged men and women. There was another desk set up in front of the screen that faced the table. Nik and I took a seat on that desk. The atmosphere in the room was so serious and sombre that I felt slightly uncomfortable. Nik placed a comforting hand on my thigh and I relaxed. "Ladies and gentlemen, I would first like to introduce my wife, Avalyn Volkov. She is now a part-owner of this company," Nik introduced me and I offered everyone a smile. They all let out murmurs of congratulations and smiles, but it felt fake. I could feel the dread rolling off them. I could smell their uneasiness and fear. "Thank you," I said and nodded with a smile. Nik took a moment to look at everyone and then decided to be blunt as usual. "We know why we are here today. Twenty million dollars was stolen from my
The Lycan King 43. Better watch your back, Max
Max's house wasn't as big as ours. But it had a warm vibe that I loved. It had a circular driveway in the front and the mansion was beige in colour with a brown roof. It was surrounded by a lot of trees and gave a secure, isolated-from-the-rest-of-the-world feeling. Which I suppose was good for a supernatural living in a human city. "Nice house," Nikolai said as we got out of our cars in the garage. From what we had seen, it really was. "Thanks," Max smiled, looking truly proud. Nat gave me a mischievous grin before he ran and jumped on Max's back, her arms around his neck and legs around his waist. "The fuck?" Max muttered but grabbed Nat so she wouldn't fall off. Nat giggled in his ears. "Yes, monkey, let's go get you a banana," Max chuckled and carried her inside. I laughed at their antics. I was happy for Nat. She looked happier than ever and Max was good for her. "Save the foreplay from the bedroom, Max," Nik rolled his eyes at them. "Oh, if you saw the foreplay, you'd kno
The Lycan King 44. I’ll never let that happen
Avalyn "Thank you for having us over." I smiled at Max and Nat. We had a quick breakfast after we woke up and now, Nik and I were on our way to meet Mary. "It was our pleasure." Max smiled back. "I actually wanted to give you something," he told Nik and then handed him an envelope. "What's this?" Nik asked, taking it from his hand. "It's a gift from Mom. She told me to give it to you when you meet your mate," Max replied, his tone gentle. I sucked in a breath. I had no idea Viktoria had planned so far ahead. She was very thoughtful. "Why did she give it to you? Why not me directly?" Nik asked, his voice thick. "When I asked her to give it to you herself, she just made me promise that I'd give it to you. And that I'll always protect you." Despite whatever happened between the two brothers, there was nothing but love in Max's eyes for Nik. I bit my lip. I felt bad that they hadn't spoken to each other for so long. "Thanks, brother." Nik hugged him. Max hugged me afterward, surpr
The Lycan King 45. A tickling match
Avalyn On our way home, we stopped by the hospital to check in on Mikhail. His condition had worsened. He was in the ICU, put in an induced coma. The left side of his neck, shoulder, and chest was covered in bandages. An oxygen mask covered his nose and mouth, and several tubes trailed in and out of his body. It wasn't easy to see him like that. He must have been in so much pain. The doctors said that he was in too much pain and the spreading venom was just making it more painful. He only had a few more weeks to live. A month, at the most. The healers were trying something, but they weren't sure if it would be successful. They said that praying to the Moon Goddess was our last hope. But Goddess Luna wasn't that kind. Watching Mikhail like that was hurting Nik too much. He blamed himself. I knew he did. So I suggested that we let Mikhail rest in peace and go home for the day. Nik agreed. I didn’t think he could bear to watch his brother like that any more than I could. I tried to

Avalyn "I wish I could do something to help him," I whispered. We were sitting in the infirmary by Mikhail's side. A nurse had been redoing his bandages when we walked in. Watching the full extent of his injuries brought tears to my eyes. Half of his neck and shoulder had turned black. It was decaying. He smelled of death. The bandages and the smell of the healing creams didn't make it seem as bad yesterday, but his condition was much worse than we had thought. Nikolai had set up a task force to gather information on this, but it was proving to be a lot more difficult. No one wanted to associate with or help Rogues. We were only limited to witches and scriptures in human towns and cities. "Let's see what we find in Mozog," Nikolai murmured and Vladimir placed his hand on Nik's shoulder in silent support. Sof looked distraught. We can't let him die. Mikhail was our brother. I vowed to find something to help him. He was on that mission with Nat because of me. He was hurt because of
The Lycan King 47. Royalty
The slaves had brought out two full hanging shelves. One held clothes for me and the other for Nik. All of them were red in colour. "Why red?" I asked. "Red is a sacred colour for vampires," Nik said as he went through his clothes. I hummed as I went through the beautiful dresses. I chose the most simple but elegant dress with maximum coverage in comparison to the rest of the dresses. It had a tight corset bodice that ended at the bottom of my ribs and the lower part was made of silk that reached the floor. The thing about the top was that it was see-through, but the intricate designs on it would cover my nipples well enough. At least my lower body would be covered entirely. I had noticed while entering the palace that vampires liked nudity. And they didn’t shy away from flaunting their bodies. The less cloth covering your body, the better. "Don't look at my dress." I hid it behind myself. "I want to surprise you." I smiled. "Fine. There must be a dressing room in here. You can

Nikolai "Excuse us," I told the slaves and all of them got up and left the bedroom. "Ava, come, have a seat," I patted the space in front of me on the bed. Ava took a seat and looked at me questioningly. "I want to first remind you that I'm here for you. And as long as I am here, nothing is going to happen to you," I started. "What is it, Nik? You're scaring me," she said, looking worried. "There is nothing to be worried about," I told her confidently. I needed to put on a strong front and make her believe it. Otherwise, she would just worry, and the probability of slipping up would increase. "There are just a few precautions we need to take to ensure that nothing happens. I want you to listen closely and remember all of them. Understood?" "Yes, Master," she nodded. "Vasilik was an asshole and so were all the people who were loyal to him. Don't trust anybody apart from our family. You do not need to be afraid of them, but you need to be cautious around them. We are werewolves r
The Lycan King 49. One True King
Avalyn My eyes fluttered open when a soft sound hit my ears. I groaned. I hated when my sleep was disturbed. Nik slapped his hand over my mouth. My eyes snapped open in shock. He placed his finger on his lips, gesturing me to remain quiet. 'I think we have some unwelcome visitors in the quarters,' he mind linked me, Vladimir, and Sofiya together. 'I will go first. Vladimir, come in thirty seconds. Girls, don’t go out of the room,' he said. 'Yes, Alpha,' Vladimir replied. 'Um, no. We can help!' Sofiya said. 'Yes!' I pleaded Nik with my eyes. 'Fine. But only if we are not done in two minutes.' He looked at me. I nodded, scared of what was to come. He took off the blanket quietly and took the sword that was given to him during the coronation. 'Use your dagger if you decide to come out. It will kill any vampire with a single strike anywhere on his body.' He looked at me intently before opening the door and slipping out quietly. I got out of bed and took the dagger in my hand. I lo
