The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 18. Deadly Memories
SKYLA. Why am I feeling like this? I stop in my tracks, wanting to tell them about the voice I heard. Of Apophis and what he said, but how do I tell them? Hesitating, I stop before the witches, and Raihana gives me a small smile. “We got this.” She says confidently. “Yeah, I just… before we begin, I want to tell you I heard a voice… and it came from the snake.” I hear a murmur go through the room and know it sounds bloody unbelievable. “And what did this snake that only you can see, say?” Sephora asks. “It said, Daughter of Selene… and I replied, servant of Apophis-” Sephora cuts me off, making my eyes flash with irritation. “And how do you know that it was the servant of Apophis? Is this a web of lies that you have spun after we mentioned the visions we’ve seen. If that is the-” “This is a trial, and every side is allowed to speak in their own defence. Do not pressurise the suspect into not stating vital information, it’s almost as if you have something against her. Do you?
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 19. Through Her Eyes
SKYLA. Someone whistles and Charlotte tosses her hair, something tells me from the way she’s dressed that Dante has managed to tell them that Royce is alive. She now saunters to the front. “You may probe my mind, but I would do it swiftly, before anything or anyone tries to interfere with the truth.” She says looking at Magdalene confidently. Mama has already healed Janaina, but she still looks tired and obviously not up to performing the spell once again. “I’ll do it!” Sephora says standing up and strides over to Charlotte, like a fucking bull ready to attack. Charlotte cocks a brow, frowning. “Fine, whatever. Sephora nods as Magdalene frowns but motions for her to carry on. Seeing a slight movement from the corner of my eyes from Leo, I turn and scan the room realising that in the commotion everyone was now at a location that covered centre ground. Delsanra and Rayhan were right behind Aleric, Mama was behind Janaina, Azura and Mama Red were to the right and Dad was on the ri
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 20. Their Verdict
SKYLA. Leo looks at Dad who nods. “Seeing this memory does make me see that this is a necessity… It’s time to make some changes and be prepared for the future.” Dad finishes. The room is deadly quiet as everyone ponders on this. “And how were the memories so different?” Heather’s mother says, but she seems calmer now. “Because, for some reason, Apophis wants to create discord, and we have some theories.” Dad says. “And will you share these? Or keep them from us common folk?” We all turn and Dad, Rayhan and Raihana frown at Ahren, who smiles innocently as if he hadn’t just asked that question. “Asking for a friend.” He adds, making some of the quints snicker. Charlotte cocks a brow. “Boys.” She says with distaste. I smirk, these kids. “I do agree with the boy, though.” Magdalene says gravely. “Perhaps it’s time for all of our kind to know what we have been facing.” Dad nods. “I believe so. I’ll hold an official conference soon, but to answer that question, we have a theory by
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 21. Tats & Trouble
ROYCE.A week has passed since I reached Alaska. I miss her so bloody much even though I see her beautiful face every day, and hear her voice, it just isn’t enough.The plus side that keeps me going is that she was proven innocent. Not only that, but the news of her being also a Lycan had spread like wildfire over the internet, although I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not.Having our own internet service has helped in so many ways and only lately have I found out that it is owned by Leo Rossi himself. The man is a dark horse with an impressive intellect.Speaking of Leo, he had asked me about summoning Charlotte for the trial if necessary, having a strong feeling that something will go wrong and promising she’ll remain safe.I trusted him, and of course, I agreed. It was Dante who had asked Mom and her if it would be ok after he had told them that I am alive and well. As well as telling them that I am the Solaris King. Dante had promised he would watch over her. I think I can tr
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 22. A King's Command
ROYCE. It’s almost an hour before she finally shows up, always late. She knocks on the window of my car in which I have been waiting for her. I unlock the doors and she quickly gets in. She’s still the same as ever, her caramel brown hair falls to her waist, her blue eyes look me over and she gives me a small smile. “Hey,” She says, about to reach over for a hug, but I turn away, looking ahead, resting my arm on the steering wheel - not giving her the option to get close. Her heart skips a beat, and she sits back after she shuts the door behind her. “Hi, how have you been?” I ask emotionlessly. Seeing her just shows how intense the feelings I have for Skyla are. She nods, her hair falling in front of her face. “Yeah, I’ve been ok. What about you?” The tone says otherwise, but there’s nothing I can say that will help her. “Good,” I reply, deciding to get to the point. “Alright, so like I told you, I needed to talk to your father. Did you manage to get him to agree?” She bites h
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 23. A Much Needed Surprise
ROYCE. A week has passed since then and tonight I will be going before the Solaris council. As promised, Owen managed to set the meeting and in just an hour, I will be escorted to the secret court of Solaria itself. I know Owen is risking a lot to help me. After all, if I did prove to be a fake, he would suffer consequences from the court, so I am grateful to him. I run my fingers through my hair before pulling it back into a hair tie. This is it…time to show the council that I’m here… to take up my position. From here on, there is no turning back. After tonight I will no longer be Royce Jonathan Arden, second son of Alpha Kenneth Arden… but The Solaris King, Alpha Royce Jonathan Arden… I’m wearing a black shirt with black pants and I’m just putting on my suit jacket when there’s a knock on the door. I turn sharply, I’m not expecting anyone… Even Jade would know better than to try to show up here… I walk towards the door, I can hear the steady beating of a heart and when I pull th
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 24. His Values
SKYLA. She’s gorgeous. There’s no denying that the woman in front of me is fucking fine. She’s wearing a red dress to her knees, and a cropped black leather jacket. Her eyes are on me, and I don’t need an introduction to know that she is Jade… “The Lycan King’s… it’s a pleasure to meet you, Princess Skyla. I am Owen Benjamin, a protector of the court, and this is my daughter, Jade Benjamin. She’s a warrior and will soon be initiated to become a protector of the court too,” he says proudly. “Nice… pleasure to meet you, Owen,” I say, holding my hand out to the man. He takes it, but instead of giving it a shake, he touches his forehead to my knuckles and kisses them softly. I cock a brow at Royce, who is frowning slightly. He gives me a small smile. ‘It’s the way the greet those of rank around here,’ he explains. “Hi, nice to meet you,” she says, holding her hand out to me. She gives me a smile that looks forced, but it doesn’t disguise the sadness in her eyes. “Likewise,” I reply,
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 25. A King's Power
SKYLA. We reach our destination soon after, but I have no idea where we are going as we drive through an underground tunnel. Although it is underground, the walls and roof of the tunnel seem to be made of some sort of glittering stone. It’s smoothed with lights running along the entire length. “Alpha Royce…” Owen says quietly. “Yes?” “The news may have gotten to your father, although I stressed that this guest – yourself requested this one condition. Not everyone on the council will willingly go against the High Alpha,” he says quietly. Royce frowns but nods. “I assumed as much.” Owen looks surprised as Jade turns to look at Royce. “Not surprising. You know Royce is always ahead, Dad,” she says. Owen frowns as he looks at his daughter and I can tell they’re mind-linking. No one speaks and Owen clears his throat. “We will have your back. If there is foul play, I will be there,’ he says. Unease fills me and I wonder what we’re walking into. Even Royce is frowning deeply. When
