THE LYCAN KING AND HIS HUNTED LUNA 16
Agnes and I strolled to the field where we saw Vaemond sparring with three huge soldiers who were almost twice his size. We watched as he disarmed them in seconds and knocked them out with deadly and swift blows. It was a display of incredible skill and prowess.As Vaemond knocked down the third man, he turned his gaze towards Agnes and said with a sly smile, "Don't you think your bet is safer with me than that overgrown champion of yours?"My blood boiled at his audacious remark. I clenched my fists, ready to engage in a fight and defend Agnes's honor. But Agnes quickly intervened, gripping my hand tightly and shaking her head in disapproval.The Queen of Persia chuckled mischievously and proposed to Prince Vaemond, “I bet you five bars of gold that you won’t be able to knock out our brave champion, Cain.”Vaemond’s eyes lit up with amusement as he looked at me. “Ah, Cain, it seems I have another challenger,” he remarked, a hint of challenge in his voice. “But I don’t need gold as mo

As Freya roamed the dark woods, draped in her black cloak, she was interrupted by a group of vile and menacing bandits. Their tattered and filthy appearance matched their wicked intentions as they advanced towards her with a knife, their intentions clear. However, Freya’s response was anything but fear or submission. A mischievous smile played upon her lips as her eyes transformed into an eerie shade of white, devoid of pupils. The air around her seemed to grow heavy and oppressive, a tangible sense of malevolence emanating from her very being.With a subtle gesture, Freya unleashed her supernatural power. The bandits, taken aback by the sudden change in their surroundings, found themselves struggling to breathe. Their chests tightened, their lungs constricting as if gripped by an invisible force. Panic filled their eyes as they desperately gasped for air, their faces contorting with agony.But that was only the beginning of their torment. Blood trickled from their eyes, nose, and ea

A soft knocking interrupted the silence of our chambers, drawing Agnes’s attention. She arched an eyebrow, curiosity flickering in her eyes as she wondered about the unexpected visitor. With a graceful wave of her hand, she granted permission for the person to enter.The guard, his armor gleaming under the soft light, stepped forward and bowed respectfully before Agnes. His voice held a hint of formality as he delivered his message.“My Lady, I apologize for the intrusion,” he began, his voice measured and respectful. “I have been sent to inform you that you and your champion’s presence is requested at the Infirmary.”Agnes’s eyes widened, concern etching lines on her forehead. “The Infirmary? What has happened?” Her voice carried genuine worry.The guard nodded, his expression solemn. “Your champion needs to register for the tournament”Agnes glanced at me, her eyes filled with a mixture of determination and concern. She understood the importance of offering aid to those in need. “Ve

As the echoes of our laughter faded, Agnes turned to me with a knowing smile. She placed a gentle hand on my arm, her eyes filled with a mix of concern and determination.“Cain, I know you’re skilled and powerful, but you must always keep your head in the game,” she advised, her voice carrying a note of caution. “These opponents we’ll be facing, they won’t play fair. They’ll try to get under your skin, use mind games to throw you off balance.”I nodded, understanding the gravity of her words. “You’re right, Agnes. I need to stay focused and keep my emotions in check. Losing my composure could cost me dearly.”Agnes squeezed my arm, her touch comforting. “Exactly. Remember, you’re not just fighting for yourself out there. You’re fighting for us, for our future together. So, be strategic, be calm, and let your skill and power speak for themselves.”I took a deep breath, feeling the weight of her words settling upon my shoulders. “I promise you, Agnes, I’ll be careful. I won’t let anythi

As I entered our chambers, Agnes rushed towards me, her eyes filled with worry and remorse. Without wasting a moment, she began to apologize repeatedly, her words tumbling out in a torrent of guilt.“I’m so sorry, Cain,” she whispered, her voice laced with regret. “I saw when you were stabbed, and I was terrified. I thought I was going to lose you.”I reached out and gently cupped her face, my eyes filled with reassurance. “Agnes, my love, I’m perfectly fine,” I assured her, my voice filled with genuine affection. “You need not worry.”Agnes’s hands trembled slightly as she carefully inspected the area where the blade had pierced my flesh.

Lysandra stood at the head of the table, her expression composed as she listened to the reports pouring in. One council member’s voice rose above the rest, his tone accusatory. “Lysandra, how did this happen? How did Freya manage to escape?”Lysandra’s gaze met his, her voice steady. “I received word that Freya attempted to escape, but she was intercepted by one of my trusted guards. Unfortunately, the guard was unable to retrieve her body.”The council members exchanged concerned glances, their disbelief evident. “And the guard’s name?” another council member inquired.Lysandra opened her mouth to speak, ready to say “Liam,” the name of the guard she had instructed to eliminate Freya. But before she could utter a word, another council member cut in.“And one of the guards, Liam. I’m afraid he’s dead as well,” the council member said, a hint of grim satisfaction i

She turned her attention to the second guard, a stoic expression on her face. “You there, come closer.” The guard approached Lysandra, his posture rigid and respectful. “Yes, Your Grace?” Lysandra’s voice was quiet, a dangerous undercurrent weaving through her words. “I have a task for you, one that requires the utmost discretion.” The guard’s eyes locked onto Lysandra’s, his attention unwavering. “I am at your service, Your Grace. What is it that you require?” Lysandra’s lips curved into a calculated smile. “I want you to accompany Freya on her journey out of the city.” The guard’s eyebrows lifted in surprise. “But

The cell was dimly lit, the cold stone walls casting shadows that danced around the room. Freya sat on the floor, her expression a mix of defiance and resignation, as she awaited the inevitable. The heavy door creaked open, and Lysandra entered, her presence commanding the room’s attention.“Freya,” Lysandra’s voice carried an air of faux sympathy, “we find ourselves in quite the predicament, don’t we?”Freya’s eyes bore into Lysandra, her response laced with bitterness. “What do you want now, Lysandra?”Lysandra’s lips curled into a self-assured smile. “I’m here with an offer, Freya. A way out of this cell and a chance at freedom.”Freya’s eyebrows furrowed in suspicion. “And what’s the catch?”Lysandra paced slowly, her gaze fixed on Freya. “I’ll be blunt,” she began. “The council is calling for your execution. They’re hungry for retribution for your betrayal.”Freya’s eyes flickered with a mix of anger and resignation. “So, what, you’re here to gloat?”Lysandra’s expression remaine

The cold, damp walls of the cell seemed to close in on Freya as she sat on the narrow cot, her expression a mixture of defiance and weariness. The footsteps echoing down the corridor signaled the approach of someone important, and when the heavy door creaked open, Freya’s gaze locked onto the figure entering. Lysandra, the self-proclaimed ultimate sorcerer, stood before her, her presence commanding attention.“Freya,” Lysandra greeted with a twisted smile. “How delightful to see you again.”Freya’s lips pressed into a thin line, her eyes narrowing as she met Lysandra’s gaze. “Save the pleasantries, Lysandra. I’m not here to engage in a friendly chat.”Lysandra chuckled, a sound that held a hint of amusement. “Oh, I’m well aware of that, dear. But perhaps you’ll change your tune once you hear what I have to say.”Freya rolled her eyes, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “I highly doubt it.”Lysandra took a step closer, her eyes boring into Freya’s with a mix of curiosity and intrigue. “Yo

The city had a different aura from what she was accustomed to under Constantine’s rule. The soldiers patrolling the area were adorned in striking attire, a mix of attractiveness and danger that set them apart.As she navigated through the crowd, Freya’s heart raced with every step.
