Break My Curse: Heart of The Lycan King
Olivia Archer always believed that her life would follow the path of power and respect. But instead, she’s been abandoned by her father, tormented by her cruel stepmother and stepbrother, and falsely accused of betrayal. Forced into a life of misery, Olivia knows one thing: she must escape or lose herself entirely. But fate has other plans when she crosses paths with Dalton Skalbeck, the feared and enigmatic Lycan King.
He isn’t the savior she imagined, nor is he the prince she dreamed of. He’s a man cursed by the Moon Goddess, bound to a life of loneliness and duty. And yet, something about him draws her in—a force beyond their control, a connection neither can ignore. As danger looms closer, Olivia must confront the truth: the kingdom she thought she knew is crumbling, and she may be the key to saving it or destroying everything she holds dear.
For Dalton Skalbeck, the weight of his crown is nothing compared to the weight of his curse. The Lycan King, bound by a prophecy and cursed by Moon Goddess to never know love, has spent years living in isolation, unable to connect with anyone. His power has always been his only ally—until Olivia Archer crosses his path.
From the moment their eyes meet, the curse that has shackled him for centuries begins to crack. The pull between them is undeniable, but nothing in his life has ever come easy, and their bond is no exception. Lies, secrets, and enemies from within threaten to tear them apart. As the shadows of war and betrayal close in, Dalton must decide: will he risk everything to embrace the love he never believed he could have, or will he push Olivia away to protect her from the dark forces hunting them both?

Chapter: Chapter 12The dim moonlight filtered through a crack in the window, casting an ethereal glow over the unfamiliar room. My body sank into the soft bed, the silky sheets wrapping around me like a cocoon. The sensation was luxurious, far too perfect. This wasn’t my world. My cabin had no sheets, let alone a bed like this. My chest tightened.Was I dreaming?I stretched my fingers across the fabric, tracing its softness, grounding myself in its undeniable reality. No, this wasn’t a dream. My head throbbed, a deep, pounding ache that made me wince. Memories of the chaos flooded back—the rogues, the screams, the blood. I moved to sit up, but my body protested with sharp, unforgiving pain, reminding me of every injury I’d endured. Even breathing felt like a monumental effort.With a trembling hand, I pushed the sheets away and reached up to touch my temple, flinching as my fingers met a tender, swollen spot. It was as if every nerve in my body screamed for rest, but panic had already taken hold. Where

Chapter: Chapter 11The world around me blurred as time seemed to stretch into infinity. My head was pounding, my heart racing, but I forced myself to look up through the car window. It was smeared with blood, bits of flesh from the doctor, and I struggled to keep my eyes from lingering on it. Instead, I focused on the chaos unfolding just feet away from me. I watched as a rogue flew out of one of the windows, his body tumbling through the air, shards of glass scattering in every direction. When he hit the ground, the sickening thud echoed in the space around us. His scream tore through the air, a sound I would never forget.Then, Dalton pushed open the door to the hospital hallway. The sound of it creaking on its hinges barely registered over the pounding in my ears, but what came next was impossible to ignore. He stepped into the wreckage, his body a taut wire of tension, his senses heightened. The acrid stench of smoke, burning debris, and blood filled the air. His eyes darted over the room, scanning

Chapter: Chapter 10“F**k.” Dalton’s curse sliced through the chaos, and in the blink of an eye, his entire demeanor shifted. His posture stiffened, his muscles tensing as if some unseen force had triggered a primal instinct within him. His once warm, intense gaze turned cold, razor-sharp, and calculating.I followed his gaze upward, my breath catching in my throat as cracks began to form across the ceiling, jagged and ominous, like a deadly spider’s web. Dust and dirt began seeping through the cracks, signaling an impending collapse. My heart pounded harder in my chest, the once surreal, intimate moment now replaced by a wave of panic.Before I could even process what was happening, the ceiling above us buckled, and in an instant, everything went dark as debris rained down upon us. I couldn’t scream. There wasn’t enough time to react before the explosion detonated, sending a force so powerful it hurled us both to the ground. The windows shattered in a thousand shards, sending glass flying across the ro

Chapter: Chapter 9The explosion outside shattered the fragile moment between us, the shockwave sending a tremor through the room. My heart skipped a beat, and before I could react, Dalton’s golden eyes snapped from mine to the window. His hand dropped from my body as if he were a different man altogether. In an instant, the intimate atmosphere vanished, replaced by something sharp and lethal.“Stay here,” he commanded, his voice low, sharp, and filled with an authority that left no room for defiance.I wanted to protest, to demand answers about what had just happened, but the way his gaze hardened—like stone—made my throat tighten. No argument would get through him. His posture was rigid, his entire being tense with the kind of focus that suggested danger was close. In a flash, he spun on his heel and strode toward the door with a cold, deliberate pace.As he reached the door, he paused, casting a glance over his shoulder. His expression remained fierce, but there was something in his eyes—something de

Chapter: Chapter 8The tension in the room thickened, the air heavy with something I couldn’t quite place. King Dalton’s hand on my elbow was steady, firm but gentle, and for a split second, I couldn’t decide if I wanted to push him away or lean into his strength. My body was practically begging for rest, each bone, each muscle screaming in protest, but my mind? My mind was a storm of indignation. I wasn’t ready to admit defeat, not to him, not to anyone.His golden eyes locked with mine, a flicker of something curious in them that caught me off guard. “You’re stubborn,” he said, his lips curving slightly in what I could only describe as amusement.I straightened, ignoring the sharp pain that shot through my ribs with the motion. “And you’re insufferable,” I snapped before I could even think it through.He didn’t take offense, to my surprise. Instead, he chuckled—a deep, low sound that seemed to resonate from his chest and roll over me like a wave. “Perhaps,” he agreed, “but insufferable kings tend to s

Chapter: Chapter 7I woke to the sharp, sterile scent of antiseptic, every inch of my body aching as if I’d been crushed, broken apart, and pieced back together with clumsy hands. The first thing I registered was the dull throb in my head, a persistent pounding that made it impossible to think clearly. My arms and torso were wrapped in layers of bandages, and every small shift sent shards of pain rippling through me. It felt like my body wasn’t mine anymore, just a husk weighed down by exhaustion.The room came into focus slowly, dim and foreign. The white walls were bare except for the glow of monitors that beeped in a steady, rhythmic cadence, like a metronome marking time. A hospital. Great. I’d seen enough of places like this to know nothing good ever followed.When I tried to sit up, pain shot through me like fire, and my limbs—God, my limbs—felt leaden, as if they were actively conspiring against me. Rest, they screamed, but my mind was already racing. I had to get out of here. Staying in this bed
