Isabeau's POV

"Loic…what are you doing?"

His earnest expression transforms to a warm smile that sends a thrilling sensation through me.

"You chew on your bottom lip when you're nervous or worried about something," he says with a small smile.

My eyebrows shoot up at his words. How did he know? It's been an old habit of mine, one only my parents had ever noticed. How could he have caught on so quickly when we've only known each other for a month?

“Wow it seems you’re right. I can’t believe you noticed.”

He shrugs like it’s no big deal.

"I take pleasure in noticing all the little things about you because my life now revolves around you. So, tell me, what's bothering you?"

I take a deep breath and reveal the thorn in my side. "There's going to be a competition between me and another woman, a Lycan female named Allegra. The winner of the Competition will get to marry Stellan."

Loic's annoyance is immediately evident on his face as he says, "You shouldn't be competing for another man's a

    Isabeau's POV"Another Leo situation, just what we need." Aello mutters within me with an eye roll. Tell me something I don't know. I don't care whatever this woman's deal is, the only thing I know is I won't let myself get insulted. I would love to give her a taste of her own medicine but for Stellan's sake, I'll opt for peace first."I know it may be hard to believe, but I simply want a friendly competition. We don’t actually need to be enemies or hate each other. I believe it's the best way to test our abilities and determine who's the most suitable to marry King Stellan." I reply, forcing on a smile.Allegra bursts into laughter, her amusement apparent. "Friendly competition? Does this look like a joke to you?" she mocks, clearly unimpressed."This is a battle for a position that I've painstakingly trained for all my life," she continues, her tone cutting. "So please don’t insult me by asking for something so trivial. If you want a friendly competition, then go back to that unciv

    Isabeau's POVHis intoxicating scent wafts into my nostrils and my body reacts accordingly, a tingle forming in my lower belly.I take a deep breath, trying to control my heart rate for fear that it'll leap out of my chest. Stellan doesn't seem to notice the internal battle within me as he drops a big book on the table before us.I take a glance at the title and quickly realize that it's a history book on Lycans and the Lycan kingdom. “As you should have known from the note I sent yesterday, the competition is divided into 3 parts. And as I already promised to support you through it, I will be handling your training for the intelligence test, while two of my other trusted officials will help you get ready for the other two tests.”“Okay. Thank you, your Majesty.” I nod without moving."Good. Start reading." He says and reclines back into the chair, giving me some much needed space despite how little it is.At first, I try very hard to focus on the book in front of me, I truly do, but

    Isabeau's POV“What? No!” Loic quickly rebuffs.“That’s fine Loic, I don’t want you to feel pressured or anything. I’ll still teach you if you want, you just seem like the perfect model.” Bastien says with a smile."I'm not making any promises but I'll consider it." Loic replies with a sigh and Bastien beams up at him. At least it wasn’t a no.I smile to myself as I shoot my last round of arrows. Bastien. What a character he is.As Loic and I bid farewell to Bastien and make our way back to the palace, I realize that I’ve been very fortunate indeed.All my training has been quite fun and interesting, plus I’m even more grateful for the opportunity to train with someone as skilled as Bastien. With King Stellan's guidance on the Kingdom's history and culture and Bastien's expertise in archery, I feel more confident and prepared for the upcoming competition.And with Loic by my side, supporting and cheering me on, I know that I'm not alone in this journey. Together, we'll face whatever

    Isabeau's POVOn the morning of the competition, Lyric comes to my room to wake me up as usual. But to her surprise, I'm already awake. I couldn't really sleep much the previous night. I mean who would be able to sleep knowing the next day would determine how the rest of their future plays out? I sigh as I roll out of bed, feeling like the day of the competition has arrived way too early for my liking.“Oh, Good morning Isa, it seems you're already awake. Did you sleep well?” Lyric asks kindly."Morning Lyric…. And no…I barely slept at all," I admit, my voice filled with exhaustion. "Anytime I closed my eyes, I would keep having nightmares that I failed the competition… Eventually, I just gave up and stayed awake."Lyric's expression softens with concern as she helps me freshen up and get ready for the day ahead. "It's natural for anyone in your position to feel nervous, Isa," she says gently. "But remember that you've trained really hard, and you're more than prepared for this…. Try

    Isabeau's POV“Remember Loic’s words, trust yourself.” Aello reminds me.I take a deep breath, and try to muster up as much courage as I can. I'm going to need it if I want to go through with this.The kitchen was refurbished for this specific event, it's been partitioned into two. One side for Allegra, complete with all the appliances she might need and the same for me. This was done probably to prevent us from getting in each other's way. Something I'm really grateful for. I move to my side of the kitchen.Loic stands at the side of my table and offers me his famous reassuring smile, ready to taste whatever I finally put out.I stand nervously in front of the ingredients, and I try to recall all the different Lycan dishes Lyric taught me. However, none of them feel quite right for this competition. “Trust your instincts.” Aello repeats again. “Okay..” I murmur.Suddenly a thought pops into my head.Arlo said we could cook anything. Meaning it doesn't have to be a Lycan dish.It d

    Isabeau's POVI return to the kitchen, feeling a heady mix of nervousness and excitement at the same time. The King and the council will soon arrive to taste the food. 'Oh dear goddess, please let them like it.' I find myself silently praying.As I step into the kitchen, I see Loic diligently watching over the food, and he smiles at me reassuringly. I shoot him a quick smile in return. "Thank you so much for keeping watch, Loic." I speak graciously. "It was my pleasure. This food is amazing, I had to make sure nothing happened to it." He beamed."Alright, it's time to dish out the food so we can present it." I state and he nods, opening the cabinet and bringing out a few dishes.I serve the soup into eight bowls for the seven members of the council and the King. Just then, Lyric arrives."Since you're already done with the cooking, I thought you might need some help." She said casually as she joins Loic."Yes Lyric, perfect timing.

    Isabeau's POVHow is this even possible? When did this happen? I thought I had been careful!As if the shock wasn't enough, Arlo drops his spoon and pulls out some strands of hair from his food as well. My knees suddenly grow weak."I see what's going on here. You did this on purpose didn't you, little SheWolf? You're trying to poison us, yes?" Arlo turns to me and asks calmly, his words carrying as much effect as a boulder."No, no, I swear! I wasn’t —I didn't try to poison you!" I stammer, my heart pounding in my chest. "I don't know how the hair got into the food! I thought I was careful…. I’m so sorry!”Arlo's eyes narrow with unbelief and suspicion as he continues to accuse me further, "You lying, manipulative wretch! You're trying to poison us because we don’t support you. Speak now and you'll be granted a merciful death. What else did you add in this? What type of poison accompanied the hair?”The accusation dealt me a huge blow, so much so that I was finding it difficult to fo

    Allegra's POVI return to my room feeling better than I've felt in weeks.I won…. Yes, I may have cheated but it doesn’t matter because I WON, and that’s all that matters.As I fall back on my chair with a contented sigh, my mind races back to that moment in the kitchen when I smelled the delicious aroma of Isabeau's food. The amount of jealousy that possessed me as I imagined her winning the competition was unbearable. I had never envied anyone ever before. I'm the woman who was always envied but this little wolf came from nowhere, threatening to steal my shine.I couldn't bear the thought of losing to a mere Shewolf. Especially not after dedicating my entire life to training to become the Queen of this Kingdom.The gods forbid it!I can bear anything else, take any other humiliation with a smile but I simply can't bear the thought of losing Stellan. I wouldn't be able to live after that.I've been in love with him for so long. I can't tell when it actually started but I'm certain i

    Isabeau's POVHe helps me stand straight.“Are you alright?” He asks softly.“I'm— I'm fine. What about you? You slept in today, are you feeling alright?”“I'm fine. I couldn't get much sleep last night, I was only able to get some rest in the early hours of the morning.” He speaks lightly and the guilt from last night quickly comes reeling in.“I heard about the requirements for this challenge. I wish you success, I know you'll win this. Just make sure to be safe, I wouldn't be able to handle it if any harm came to you.” He speaks again.The words take me completely by surprise. Is this actually Loic? I thought he would have asked to come with me. Heck, I thought he'd make a fuss about me going alone. I'll never admit it out loud but I love his clinginess.His words, the way he said them, though good natured, show that he's mad at me. I sigh.“So you won't be coming with me?”“No. It was brought to my knowledge that during this challenge, you're not allowed assistance from anyone, be

    Isabeau's POVI don’t even remember falling asleep. But next thing I know, Lyric is waking me up with a smile.“Good morning, Isa. How was your night?” She asks in a singsong voice.I can’t stop the memories flooding into my mind so I end up with a blush before I reply, "It was very, very good. Thank you.”“Pardon me for saying this but you might want to take a look at your neck.” Lyric mouths and hands me a mirror.I take a look and a gasp escapes my mouth. Dark red hickeys have bloomed all over my neck and chest, some have even turned purple. Stellan did not relent. My face turns beet red with embarrassment. No one else can see me like this.“I can tell you had quite the adventurous night.” Lyric teases with a smile.“Don't. I'm already embarrassed enough as it is, you really can't breathe a word about this to anyone.”“I promise I won't. I'll even help you cover them with makeup. This competition is very crucial and we can't let anything set you in a bad light.”“That would be much

    Isabeau's POVI slam the door hard as I leave the King's bedroom. I'm so annoyed I can't even quantify it.That stupid arrogant demon just knows how to get under my skin every damn time. He couldn’t even let me have a perfect night with Stellan. No, he just had to appear and ruin it all.I huff as I try to calm my erratically beating heart. The events of the last few hours have been more than I could have ever imagined. But right now, I have to sneak back into my room without anyone seeing me.I simply can't afford to get any negative attention on me, especially after just being accused of trying to poison the King and the entire council.I'm not ashamed of people finding out that Stellan and I have a deeper relationship, the problem is, that information won't work in my favor at the moment since no one except the both of us are aware of the terms of our agreement.Then there's the horrible things they would say about me. I can almost hear them gossiping in my imagination….‘You won't

    Isabeau's POVI blush a deep shade of red when I realize that the blanket had landed on the floor when I got off the bed in a hurry. I'm fully naked before him, flushed skin and all. The cool breeze from the window stiffens my nipples and riddles my skin with goosebumps.I move closer and swiftly snatch the blanket, wrapping it around my body before finally returning my attention to him. The smug look on his face annoys me to no end.“You're such a pervert, you don't seem to know the first thing about privacy.” I berate, my annoyance seeping through my voice.His laugh crackles around the room like electricity while I try to school my expression in an attempt to disguise my unease. He's up to something, I can tell.“You know what, Isa dear? You might actually be sexier than Lilith with that lying mouth of yours and your oh so beautiful body which seems like it was only built to be fucked.” He titters, clearly amused.“Will you just stop?! Stop spluttering such nonsense, not everything

I sigh.The pain quickly subsides until it disappears completely and I find yourself wanting more."I want more, please….. please fuck me harder." I plead out."Your wish is my command." He replies with a chuckle.He begins increasing the pace of his thrusts, pummeling into me at a steady pace. His rigid, hot length pushes into me, scraping my insides, bumping into spots I didn't know existed."Faster, harder, please…." I push on.His lips twist in a mischievous smile before thrusting into me hard and fast, nearly knocking the air from my lungs.He begins pummeling into me so hard and fast that I can barely catch a breath but it feels too good.I don't care that my voice is echoing around the room, my lower half feels amazing and I never want it to stop.Stellan takes it up a notch by bringing his hand to my engorged clitoris.

My body shakes and my pussy spasms and clenches uncontrollably, holding onto Stellan's fingers like a vice.In the meantime, he still licks and sucks my clit even through my orgasm.Wave after wave of electricity washes over me and my toes curl. My orgasm lasts for a few seconds, the mind blowing pleasure almost blinding me. I'm left a breathless and gushing mess and I try to catch my breath as I attempt to come down from my high.What sorcery did he use? I've never cummed this hard before, my whole body's shaking."You look so beautiful when you cum

    Isabeau's POVMy heart races as King Stellan's lips meet mine, and for a moment, I'm shocked by the suddenness of the kiss. But the delicious feeling of his warm, tender lips against mine quickly overwhelms me, and I find myself responding with equal fervor.Our lips move in perfect harmony, our kiss deepening into something more passionate. I never imagined that he would kiss me like this, that he would show such vulnerability, and it stirs something deep within me. When we finally break apart, I see a faint blush on his cheeks, a sight I've never witnessed before, and it only deepens my own blush.He suddenly clears his throat.“I’m sorry, I should have asked before I—“ He starts apologizing.“Shhshh” I shush him and place a finger over his lips before he can finish his apology.I lean into him, whispering seductively in his ear, "I don't want an apology, Your Majesty. You shouldn't have to apologize for something I wanted too. Besides, I can’t fulfill my end of the deal without yo

    Stellan's POVThe evening breeze sweeps softly through her hair making her look more ethereal and beautiful than my heart can handle. I briefly closed my eyes and tried to savor this moment of warmth and hope I shared with Isabeau. However, the moment was cruelly shattered as Aster's voice invaded my thoughts, sneering at my vulnerability."Oh please! Don’t tell me you’re that stupid Stellan. You should know that mere sugar coated words won't change the reality of who you are," He taunted. "The moment you made a contract with me, you completely forsook the light. Now you're nothing but a creature of darkness, deep rooted sin that's taken form. You should never forget that."I clenched my fists in anger, my patience vanishing along with the little peace of hope that I had allowed to bloom in my heart. “Just shut the hell up, demon!" I growled internally, trying to silence the monster within. "I won't let you torment me anymore."Aster's maniacal laughter echoed through my mind. "Me?

    Stellan's POVFuck.This is exactly why I wanted to stay away from her. When I'm with her, I lose all sense of reasoning and say the first thing that comes to mind. With each encounter, I just keep getting bolder and it's getting harder to hold on to that cold exterior.The sweet taste of freedom- of love is promising but I can't deny the burn that comes with it. I can't let myself get deceived and sucked into this illusory feeling only to crash and burn when reality hits. Somehow the words slipped out before I could stop them but at least I can stop her from having any hopes or expectations of me.In the depths of my mind, Aster, the ever present demon, pricks up at my thoughts.“It's such a pity, what a tragic love story. You desire her with all of your heart, she's within your reach but at the same time, you're not allowed to love her. I almost feel sorry for you. I would help you but you see, it's not what demons do. In this tragic situation, while you yearn to love and be loved,
