The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. Didn't Go As Planned
[Diego’s POV]I watch Rosalie as she disappears in the same direction that Annemarie went, wondering if this was the smartest of ideas. Although Annemarie and Bernard didn’t seem to find Rosalie to be much of a threat to whatever the fuck was going on between them, I knew if my sister was aware I was around, things would be different.“Fuck,” I growl, running a hand through my hair. “What is this woman planning?”Sighing, I get up and head in the direction of the bathrooms. When I reach, I extend my senses, finding that both Rosalie and Annemarie are, in fact, in the ladies room.Wondering what the hell I was even doing when I already had a perfect plan in place, I lean against the wall and wait until I hear a commotion from the bathroom, and when Rosalie appears, I move, grabbing her and steadying her as she does a beautiful job of pretending to be sick.“Oh,” she gasps, clinging to me. “I’m so glad you’re here.”As she speaks, Annemarie emerges from the restroom looking frantic, and

[Rosalie’s POV]When we return to Diego’s condo, Geo rushes toward me, throwing his arms around my leg and shooting Diego a glare.“That was a dirty trick.” He hisses, his gaze narrowing. “I knew you weren’t a good person.”At his words, Chanel lets out a laugh from her place on the couch, where she watches some drama with Giddeon.“You tell him, Geo.” She calls, giving me a wink. “He’s horrible to invade my time with your mother and make me come back here so that he could have her all to himself.”As she speaks, Diego’s gaze darkens, and he lets a low rumble of a growl escape him, but he doesn’t say a word; instead, he heads to the kitchen.“Oh,” Giddeon chirps, following Diego with his gaze. “Are you the chef this evening?”“Not for you.” Diego responds. “Only for my family.”“But I thought we were your family.” Giddeon pouts. “How could you be so mean to us?”“Could the both of you shut up?” Anthrose huffs from his place across from them. “What kind of example are you setting for t
Last Updated : 2024-07-31The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. His Promise
[Rosalie’s POV]My body shivers, but it doesn’t attempt to pull free of Diego’s hold. Instead, it wants to feel it even more.Mayday, mayday. My head screams as I feel myself getting lost in the feel of Diego’s mouth moving against mine and his rough fingers caressing my throat and my chin.Pulling away, he brushes his thumb along my bottom lip while his breath comes in puffs. His dark eyes grow even darker, and before I can stop myself, I’m attacking, pressing myself against him, and pulling so that our mouths collide and the taste of blood erupts on my tongue.Oh Goddess, I missed this—the feel of him and the taste of him. I missed it so damn much.“Down, tigress.” Diego chuckles, separating us just as the scent of something burning reaches my nose. “We can’t go too far.”For a moment, I don’t speak, as my mind remains hazy and the need to only feel and reconnect consumes me. But when Diego’s hands brush my cheeks and gently pat them, I begin to come up for air.Eyes widening, I rea
Last Updated : 2024-08-02The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. After Five Years
[Diego’s POV]I keep my gaze fixed on Rosalie as she pretends to be extremely interested in the food in front of her. She looks adorable, flustered like that, with her cheeks bright pink and her hair hanging down to cover her face like curtains. Honestly, it is taking everything in me not to grab her and drag her to the bedroom right now.Keep it together, Diego. I tell myself silently as memories of Rosalie’s fantasies appear in my mind. Just a little bit longer, and you can get your revenge.I wasn’t certain if she did what she did intentionally or if she didn’t realize that I could feel and see everything through our connection, but I didn’t give a damn. I was feeling like a fiend, and my fix was sitting right there for the taking.“Anyone care to go for a swim after this?” Chanel asks, breaking the silence.“Me!” Landon immediately responds. “I want to go swimming!”“Atta boy,” she grins, shooting me a look that almost screams that she knows what is going through my mind. “What ab

[Rosalie’s POV]My body shakes, and waves of pleasure rush through me as Diego sucks in a breath, taking in my scent like it is the most delicious thing in the world.“Fuck, I’ve missed you.” He groans, using two fingers to open up my pussy lips. “So fucking much.”Groaning quietly, he runs his tongue along my swollen clit, causing a moan to escape me.“Did you miss me?” He continues, shoving a finger into me and hooking it.For a moment, I don’t speak as I try to make sense of what is happening. Was he really asking me such questions when we were together like this? I mean, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss him, but wouldn’t responding with a yes make it sound like I only missed the intimate moments when there was much more I missed? Even if our relationship had a lot of ups and downs, he was truly trying to atone for his sins there at the end.“Answer me, Rosalie.” Diego hisses when I remain silent.Gasping, I arch my back as he pushes his finger deeper into me. “Did you miss me?
Last Updated : 2024-08-08The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. His Reminder
[Rosalie’s POV]I stare straight ahead as one of the latest hopefuls who wants to work with Gil’s company goes on about why they’re a good choice. Despite knowing that I should be listening in and taking notes, I can’t stop my mind from wandering back to what happened the previous night.Again and again, Diego’s shocked and hurt expression appears, causing my heart to hurt even more. Even if it was there for a split second before he managed to compose himself again, I saw it and knew that my big reveal left some type of wound deep inside him. And even if I wish I hadn’t said a thing, it was something that he needed to know.Going forward, my connection to his lycan would play a big part in what would happen, especially since it was his lycan that was causing the darkness to torment Crystal Fang, it was what I needed to somehow defeat. But how was I supposed to do that if my body and even my mind were weak to it?Sighing, I lean forward, burying my head in my hands, until the room arou
Last Updated : 2024-08-09The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. A Talk Between Men
[Rosalie’s POV]“I got it.” I sigh, knowing there is no arguing with Gil. “I’ll tell him.”After that, Gil doesn’t say anymore; he just heads out of the meeting room, leaving me alone to finish cleaning up. Once I finish, I head back to my office, where I attempt to get some work done, but by the end of the day, I feel like I’ve piled up more than I did when it started.Sighing, I get up and head out while my stomach churns with nerves over Diego and Gil's meeting.“It’s going to be okay.”I tell myself this again and again during the ride home and as I head up the elevator to where Diego and everyone else are waiting. When I reach the door, it bursts open, and Geo rushes toward me.“Welcome home, mommy!” He announces, immediately erasing all my anxiety. “Did you have a good day?”Opening my mouth, I prepare to respond, but stop as Landon peeks from behind Geo shyly.“W-welcome home.” He says, and I’m certain that he too wants to say, Mommy.“I’m home.” I beam, kneeling down and openi
Last Updated : 2024-08-10The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. His Choice
[Diego’s POV]I stare at Gil, who watches me carefully. If you ask me whether or not I expected this to be what our conversation was about, I would say no, but now that it was happening, I shouldn’t be surprised. Especially when the biggest threat to Rosalie and Geo was my mother.“It isn’t that easy.” I say slowly.“Isn’t it?” Gil counters, frowning in disapproval.Even if we didn’t get along and they were trying to control every fucking aspect of my life, from the way I ran the pack to who I married and made my luna, I couldn’t just off them. They held too much power and had too many followers for that. The minute I moved to do such a thing, I was certain that most of Moon Storm would turn against me.“Just because you come from a pack and family that are on good terms, don’t try to pretend that you know what my situation is.” I growl. “If it were that easy, I would have done that ages ago.”“You’ve failed the test.”Smirking, Gil lifts his fingers and snaps so that his women return

The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. His True Self
[Chanel’s POV]I stare on, watching as Anthrose and the rest of his group surge forward, attacking the guards who were just sneering at me, and I can’t help but laugh at the difference in their demeanors.“Cowards,” I spit, sitting up and snapping my thumbs back into place. “Acting all high and mighty until actual danger appears.”As I speak, I grab the chains that are holding my ankles and begin to pull while ignoring the pain that shoots through me. Fuck, they were strong, but I was stronger. Soon enough, they begin to crack and then break apart, allowing me to finally get up and move to Gil’s side.“Just hang in there a bit longer, alright?” I tell him, clutching his cuff and starting to fight with it. “Then we will get you out of here and…”“No!” Gil gasps before breaking into a coughing fit. “We can’t just leave!”Frowning, I take in his words, trying to make sense of what it is that he is saying, but I don’t get to question him further before pain shoots through me and my body a
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. Rescue
[Anthrose’s POV]The next morning we move out the minute the warm sun begins to paint the ground that we sleep on. After a quick breakfast, we head out with me leading the way since I’m the only one who can get a feel for the location that we are searching for.Together, we silently move across the island while keeping our senses alert in case of a surprise attack. However, the expected never happens, and by the time we are close to our destination, I can’t help but feel like all of this is too easy, and by the tension I feel from my companions, I know that they’re feeling the same.“Up ahead,” Sam murmurs, coming to my side. “I can see it.”Nodding, I take in the shining figure that I’m certain is the temple, noting the dark aura that radiates around it. Even from here I could tell that the things residing within were something the normal wolf wouldn’t want to approach, but given what we were fighting for, I wasn’t going to let it stop me.“Prepare yourselves.” I announce, letting my
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. A Location
[Anthrose’s POV]For the rest of the day, I search the island for a sign of where Chanel and Gil may be, but come up empty. And when my group can’t seem to move anymore, I have to call the search to a halt. However, that doesn’t mean that I don’t continue to keep my connection with the earth, searching while dinner is made.It’s a silent ordeal, as I’m certain that the entire group is feeling the weight of what is at hand and what we may encounter when we find the ones we are searching for. I could only assume that a fight was waiting for us, and it was because of that that I even agreed to res.Sighing, I close my eyes and let myself slip deeper into a trance, searching until I feel something press against my consciousness that snaps me to alertness as hope flares through me along with a longing that I’ve never felt before.‘Chanel,’ I whisper, not daring to truly believe that I’m feeling what I am. ‘Is that you?’For a moment, all I’m met with is silence, causing me to believe that
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. A Twinge
[Anthrose’s POV]My body screams at me, begging me to stop, to take a break, but I can’t stop moving. Behind me, I can hear noises of complaint and exhaustion escaping my companions, making it clear that they’re feeling the same thing as me. However, I can’t stop moving; I won’t stop moving; just the thought of stopping makes me so damn anxious I want to fucking destroy something. I can’t stop the feeling that if I stop looking even for a second, Chanel will vanish completely.Shivering, I try not to think of a world where she doesn’t exist somewhere. Sure, it was one thing to keep my distance and allow her to live the life that she deserves, but to even think of her not being somewhere alive and happy damn near kills me.‘Chanel.’ I call to the darkness, hoping and praying that by some miracle she will respond to me. ‘Where are you? Why aren’t you answering me?’“Anthrose.”I immediately freeze as the voice reaches me, but I realize a moment too late that it wasn’t Chanel’s voice, it
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. A Trap
[Chanel’s POV]I look around me, taking in the stone walls around me, noting how they’re cracking, allowing vines to grow through them while my intrusive thoughts try to get the better of me. They’re screaming things like what if this place were to collapse. What if you find yourself at a dead end? What if you run out of air? It’s irritating as fuck, and even though I keep telling them to shut up, they just won’t.“Hey,” I call to Tyson, who leads the way in hopes of distracting myself. “Are you certain that we are going in the right direction?”Since he was the one to choose our path and take the lead, I could only hope that he somehow could track the way out of this place, but what if he was just leading us deeper into this underground labyrinth?“Hey,” I repeat when he doesn’t respond to me. “I’m talking to you.”Frustration growing, I move forward and grab his shoulder, forcing him to turn and look at me, but I’m not met with the same gaze that I was used to. Instead, I’m met with
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. His Desperateness
[Anthrose’s POV]We spend the rest of the day searching for any sign of Chanel or Tyson, but all we come up with is nothing. It’s almost like neither of them existed or were somehow spirited away from earth.“We should rest.” Henry, one of Ulrick’s warriors, suggests later that evening. “We will be useless in helping them if we are exhausted.”“Are you saying that this little bit of action exhausts you?” I demand. “If that's the case, you are more than welcome to rest, but I’m going to keep searching.”“But, sir…”“I said I was going to keep searching!” I growl, not giving two fucks if I came across as argumentative or defiant. “There’s no fucking way that I’m going to stop until I find her.”Even though only a couple of hours had passed, I couldn’t help but feel like days, even weeks, had already gone by without Chanel’s presence. It was fucking maddening, and I was beginning to feel like a crazy man. How the hell did I manage to stay away from her for so many years in the past?No.
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. Beneath The Earth
[Chanel’s POV]I watch as the crevice above me grows farther and farther away until my body is hitting the wolf beneath me, who takes most of the impact. Together, we lay there, watching as the ground slowly begins to close once more, eliminating the little bit of light around us until we are plunged into darkness.Snapping out of it, I jump up and then look to the wolf beside me, taking him in while wondering what exactly he was thinking. And once I shift back into my human form, I wait as he stares at me.“What?” I demand, my annoyance flaring. “Don’t look at me like that.”Letting out what sounds almost like a huff of annoyance, he begins to shift until Tyson is lying on the ground in the wolf’s place.“What?” He asks as I narrow my gaze. “Why are you looking at me like that?”Why? Because he was the reason we were here right now. He wasn’t paying attention to where he was going when he saved me.“Do I really need to answer that?” I sigh, beginning to look around, taking in the tun
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. A Crevice
[Chanel’s POV]“Right.”I give Anthrose one last look before turning my gaze toward the creatures that are slowly making their way toward us. They’re different from the beasts that we’ve encountered until this point, but they’re also the same.These look almost like worms, but they have legs and buglike faces. I guess if I had to compare them to anything, it would be centipedes. Just watching them move gave me the heebie jeebies, but I wasn’t about to let them stop me from getting to what I wanted.Giving Anthrose one last look, I begin to shift, and once I’m in my wolf form, I move, surging forward and attacking the creepy crawly closest to me. When we clash, it immediately attempts to roll its body around me, but I leap out of the way.Landing on top of it, I watch as the rest of our group joins in the fray, beginning our first official battle since arriving on the island.‘Don’t get yourself killed.’Anthrose's voice reverberates in my mind, causing my heart to race and giving me t
The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit. A Guessing Game
[Anthrose’s POV]I don’t speak as Chanel’s question flows over me, settling into the deepest pits of my soul along with the loathing and disgust that I’ve felt since the day the thing she is asking about happened, and as much as I would like to say, I know that I can’t.“The plague.” I respond instead, deciding that was a good enough explanation. “It affected my eyes.”“You’re lying.”Chanel’s response is firm, and I know that due to our bond, there was just no way that I would be able to get away with lying to her.“How did it really happen?”How? That was an easy fucking response, but again, I knew that if I were to speak it out loud, then there was a good chance it would dig out the skeletons that I was trying so hard to not think about anymore.“Anthrose,” Chanel’s voice drifts through my muddled thoughts. “You can tell me anything. You know that, right?”I did. But this was something that didn’t only involve me. It also involved her, and I knew if I were to open up about it, then
