The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 29. A Mother's Concern
KIARA. My lips quiver as Alejandro pulls me into his arms. His intoxicating scent and his warmth are the greatest comfort for me, but it doesn’t take away the pain that has settled into my heart. When your child is suffering… ‘We’re here for her.’ He says through the link. I’ve failed as a mother. I’m trying not to let my pain show as I gaze at the door to her bedroom. My Angel… The smell of breakfast that I’m almost done cooking fills the cottage, and despite the pleasant warmth of the morning ray of sunshine that makes the small hallway glow, I’m struggling to remain strong. Last night replays in my mind and I close my eyes, taking a choked breath. It’s hard… (FLASHBACK – LAST NIGHT) “Hello?” I answer Alejandro’s incoming call, licking my finger clean of the brownie batter. It’s extremely late. He must have just finished off with work. Kataleya had sent pictures of their meal earlier. I’m glad they had some time together. “You need to get to Sky’s cottage as soon as you can
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 30. My Defiance
SKYLA. I had grabbed a baggy cream knit top and pulled it over my crop top, pushing it back from my shoulders so it would cover my ass up, until Dad drops me at school, anyway. I’m sitting in the car, with my earPods in and tapping my foot to the beat of the music. “Can we try to talk about this?” He says, looking over at me. “No,” I say, glancing at him but refusing to switch my music off. He sighs, frowning as he stares out ahead at the winding road. “You know we’re worried about you Sky. That’s why we’re here, to help you and fucking be there for you. It’s fine to struggle, it’s fine not to be fucking in control. It’s fine to let others see that.” No, it’s not and I’m dealing... somewhat. Mama had healed me, the pain of the poisons and the bite were gone, and I feel alive. Not sure if that’s a good thing, considering I might lose control faster. “Fucking talk to me Sky.” “You know what the problem is?” I say, taking my pods out and looking at Dad pointedly. “I’m all fucking
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 31. A Rossi to the Core
SKYLA. The morning has passed by damn slowly. I’ve been itching to get my hands on Aleric, and my anger has begun bubbling again. Royce’s words from last night are replaying again and again and it’s only getting to me. I don’t even know how I’m going to face him later for training… I might bail for today. I don’t think I can handle being in his proximity… I zoomed through the first three lessons without even bothering to play up or waste time. Lost in thought as I get the work done with ease. The quicker I’m done, the better. The moment the bell rings, I grab my books, and my tote bag that Malevolent has been curled in all day and rush from the room before anyone else even rises from their seat. Now to find that dick. “Skyla!” I stop mid-step, spotting none other than Ahren, my nephew? I pause for a moment, second-guessing that. I swear this family is so damn big and tied from every damn angle that I forgot who is banging who and who created what demon’s spawn. But he’s defini
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 32. A Shocking Revelation
SKYLA. “I am trying to understand your behaviour, Miss Rossi! But I can’t excuse the abuse of a teacher on my Academy grounds!” Bla bla bla… I admire my nails nonchalantly as I sit on the chair in his office. He stands there behind his desk, hands braced on it, blowing steam from his ears and mouth. Is he a dragon or something? I swear he needs to calm the hell down, it's not that big of a deal. Well, ok maybe hitting a teacher is… I'm giving Aleric ten minutes to get his ass here otherwise I'm throwing him under. My foot is tapping the floor impatiently as River’s anger continues to rise. He looks damn weird, with his face now an interesting shade of purple. I chew the gum I had popped into my mouth minutes before he had found me in the halls and although I know he hates gum at school I still chew away and blow a bubble without a care. "SKYLA SILARA ROSSI!" He shrieks, sounding liking a fucking strangled chicken and I can't help but smirk. We both stare at one another an
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 33. In the Forest
ROYCE. I really have no way to explain what I feel when she turns and saunters out of the cafeteria as if she owns the entire place. If I try to put it into one sentence, it would be; She looks fucking mind-blowingly sexy and smoking hot. Her long killer legs move confidently, her hips naturally swaying as she walks, and her breasts bounce as does her hair. There’s a fire in her eyes that makes my throat go dry. She’s not seen me but she’s angry and she doesn’t give a shit about the consequences. Call me insane, but I actually admire that. She’s able to be herself without even considering the repercussions of her actions. She spots me, and her heart skips a beat. Her eyes meet mine for a second, before she turns those bottle-green eyes away and brushes past me, leaving me with a hint of her scent… That fleeting remnant doesn’t do justice. There’s something about the wild princess that gets to me every damn time, and I’m not the only one left speechless in her wake. I hate that a
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 34. Unexpected
SKYLA. I gasp when I see the silvery light that shimmers around his hand before ice encases the ground, spreading as it creates unique patterns. I can feel the cold in the air. My heart thunders as I stare at it before my gaze flicks up to him. He’s unmoving, yet the power that exudes from him… I can’t help but bite my lip. His ash blond hair seems to be holding a radiance, his angled jaw and the dimple in his cheek is emphasised. For a moment, time stands still and all I can see is the God before me… He looks… breathtaking. An Ice God… How can one look so damn beautiful? The cold makes me shiver and I’m pulled back to the present as I lift my legs from the ground. Whoa… Fuck it’s freezing! That’s some crazy Elsa shit. “Wait, are you somehow a witch? I mean, is that even possible I swear your cock didn’t feel like-” I internally smack myself. “Really?” He cocks a brow and gives me a pointed look. “No, this isn’t witchcraft, but an ability that is part of our heritage.” Herit
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 35. Late
SKYLA. I can’t get my head around it. He thought I was the one attacking and killing people? Like actually fucking seriously? No wonder he’s always been observing my eyes whenever they changed. Plum… just like the death noodles. That day when he had said, out in the woods, I had turned and just left. Although he had tried to call out to me, I refused to listen… (FLASHBACK) “I didn’t mean it like that. I’m sorry.” Royce says, closing his eyes for a moment as he exhales. Sorry? “Sorry doesn’t cover you thinking I’m a killer, yes I can’t control my Lycan, but I’m no killer. I…” I trail off, feeling as if I’ve been punched in the gut. I have almost killed someone… If Kat didn’t stop me… I can’t blame him for thinking that… “I’m just in a habit of over analysing everything and I’m not saying you but your-” “My Lycan is a part of me.” I cut in, “Look, I’m fine, I’m tired and without clothes, I don’t really want to head back to school, I’m going home.” I don’t wait for an answe
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 36. A Pleasant Visit
SKYLA. “ZU!” I shout as I launch myself at the slightly shorter woman. She catches me, hugging me tightly. “Sky! Finally!” “Why are you two so fucking loud?” Leo says, his pale cold eyes glaring in my direction. “Deal with it.” I say as I give him a tight crushing hug before I slide into the seat next to Kataleya, and Azura sits down beside him. The weather is warmer than it was this morning. A sharp wind is blowing through the trees, but it’s pleasant. I can hear the sounds of chatter, laughing, and even the groups playing football or basketball. It’s strange but I feel more relaxed. We’re on the school grounds, in the quieter section, and it’s lunchtime. There are mostly girls or couples out here who prefer the quiet to the rowdy games going on, or the busy food hall. I hate that Leo is getting gawked at, although what I don’t mind is the looks of jealousy and envy that Azura is receiving. Most of these students disliked Azura, always calling her a problem child and now? N

The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin Sneak Peak & Author's Note
PLEASE READ TO THE END! IT WILL ANSWER QUESTIONS! Hello everyone! I hope you enjoyed that epilogue. Sky being Sky is always hilarious and despite everything that has happened, and she has found herself, she has not lost herself. She’s still the wild, crazy Skyla Rossi who loves to barter with her dad for money, leaving Royce gobsmacked with her crazy remarks that she WILL follow up on and not to mention her love for Malevolent! Well now that the journey is over and we bid a ‘see you later’ to our loved duo, we will move on to a new story. For those on my socials, you probably know that I will now write Precious Bond, it will be added to the end of Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire. This is a short novella, so hopefully won’t take us too long to complete. After Precious Bonds is completed, I will then write The Dragon King’s Seduction, which is a sequel to The Alpha King’s Possession. Which means there will be a gap before I start Kataleya’s book! Yes, I know no one wants that but I
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin Epilogue Part 3
ONE MONTH LATER… SKYLA. The Alpha Gen X game of the fucking century. Tonight, we have the Game Master himself, This has been the most awaited game for the fans of the games in over a year. The Panther is going up against the Game Master - X himself. Through the last tournament the Panther was the victor and now… now he would go head-to-head with X. X is said to be a man who lives in the shadows, powerful, strong and someone who would without a doubt win. Everyone speculates about him, but no one knows who he is or where he is from. We’re kitted up in full black. The rule for spectators requires one’s identity to be hidden. I’m in black leather pants, a black top and a leather jacket. With matching knee-high killer heels, a hood and a face mask. Royce has his hood up, too. He’s wearing black sweats, with the letter X on his back, black boots and a face mask finishes his look. His blond hair is pulled back in a sleek bobble. His sharp eyes are the only thing you can see. Upon

ROYCE. ‘What’s with the look, Love? It’s tempting me.’ I ask her through the link as she gazes up at me with such love. I wonder how I got so lucky. “Just thinking about how I fucking love you so damn much.” She replies, placing her hand over the arm that is wrapped around her waist. “Then we’re on the same page,” I say as I pick up a burger and hold it to her mouth. She takes a bite, her sultry eyes remain locked with mine before she licks her lips. Damn, that’s so fucking hot… “Enjoying the food porn, Magic Fingers?” Azura asks her voice full of amusement. Skyla snickers as holds the burger out to me, and I take a bite rather than having to answer that question. Damn… why does she look so smoking hot… “Food porn… I like it too…” Kataleya murmurs to herself. I don’t think we are on about the same kind of food porn… I look at my girl’s sexy body as she takes another bite. Smoking… She turns to grab a drink and my gaze falls on her ass, her sexy peach swallows up her black t
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin Epilogue Part 1
SEVERAL MONTHS LATER... (A few weeks after the epilogue of Leo & Azura’s book) SKYLA. “You got the drinks?!” I shout to Kataleya. “Check!” She calls back. Exams are over and I’m finally free! Ok, not so much as we’ve begun working on a new training programme called the Elite X. Training has been upped in the academies and in packs, but the Elite X, a name chosen by Azura, our future sexy bad-ass queen is an entirely new ball game. The Elite X will further the training of warriors from around the country, those who excel in their fields or have graduated from the academy at the top of the charts in training, fitness, and power. This is the future. We are the future. There is a war coming, and the truth is we will have to face it when it does. We don’t know when and we don’t know exactly what we will face but we will prepare and be ready for it. I am one of the first ones working on the programme and will be one of the leads in the facility. There’s more to my job than just th
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 81. Different Than You
ROYCE. I pause. No… I am better than this… I squeeze his heart enough for him to growl in pain as he rips through my right flank and I kick him off, releasing my hold on his head. He’s forced to shift back as he staggers, blood spilling from his chest. “You will have to kill me, Royce! If you want the title! You don’t have it in you, do you, loser!” He taunts. No… I can take the title without killing him…. I refuse to keep repeating this cycle. I storm towards him, the sky darkening, and I punch him across the face, knocking him to the ground. “Refraining from killing someone does not make me a loser, father.” “Coward!” He sneers. “You don’t have the backbone to be king!” “There is more to being king than displaying power…” I reply, looking at the hatred in his eyes. “You don’t deserve a fast end. You deserve to live out the rest of your life in prison. Rest assured, you will never see the light of another day.” My aura rages around me as I grab him by his head. “Forfeit.”
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 80. Justice for the Past
ROYCE. “Once again, you show no compassion. You drove him to become what he was… by abusing him, mentally and physically. You broke him from the caring big brother he once used to be. Grooming him not only to be competitive but to go to any length to achieve what he desired, and he did.” My voice rings powerfully across the arena as I keep circling Dad. “I did nothing of the sort! He made his own choices of his own free will!” he replies, his eyes flashing. “Did he? You expected more of him, wanted more from him! You put the seed of hatred for me into him!” I snarl, grabbing him by the collar, my heart thundering. “The match has not started. Let’s follow the rules, son.” He says, smiling tauntingly. A smile that grates on my nerves. I never realised how badly he treated us… I was so accustomed to everything that I dealt with it, but he is the root cause of it all. I let go of him and shove him away, backing up a few steps. “Very well then… before we start, I will go over the cri
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 79. The Time to Face Him
ROYCE. A week has passed since the funerals of those who lost their lives in that battle. We have also buried Aleric at the borders of the pack, a place that was safe to visit yet away from where the rest of the Ardens were buried. He didn’t earn that right, yet we still kept him on pack grounds where Mom could visit if she so wished. The day after the burials, we had returned to the Arden mansion, and Skyla had come with me. Ready to start her life with me. Although her dad wasn’t too keen on it, he understood and simply told her she will need to attend the Academy until she has takes her exams. But I still liked the fact that my queen will always be beside me. Seeing her belongings in our room, set beside mine, felt good. Her presence is something that lightens up my day and night. Today there are going to be many spectators in the Pack Arena, a place where we held some of our training exams and competitions. However, today it would be used for something entirely different. I
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 78. Car Ride
ROYCE. She’s gorgeous. From those long killer legs that are on display, she’s wearing a pleated black skirt and high over-the-knee boots. Those sexy legs always draw my attention. She’s wearing a long-sleeved black fitted top that accentuates those breasts and a tiny waist, but it’s the look in her gorgeous green cat-like eyes that catch my breath. Her eyes never returned to normal, although her armour disappeared at will. Her eyes remained, like her uncle, Liam Westwood, whose eyes were once said to be a cerulean blue like his father. She had been pretty ecstatic when she had realised. I can’t help but smile at the thought of how she had grabbed Malevolent and told her they now looked like proper twins before turning to me and asking if I like a pussycat… The thought sends pleasure rushing south. We haven’t gotten down and dirty yet, but she’s teasing me any moment she gets. We’ve both had a lot on our minds, but even in the darkest of times, she makes me smile. She now saunte
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 77. Brother & Sister
SKYLA. The wind blows through my hair as I place a single red rose that I had sprayed the edges with gold paint, with the green leaves and thorns intact on top of Chris’s grave. They brought his body back to Black Storm Territory, even though he was the alpha of the Dark Storm Pack. He was born on Black Storm territory, and Raihana wanted him to rest in the same place as his family, and besides Papa Raf. “No white from me Romeo… you and Ri… you were that couple who were always so damn extra and it fucking looked good on you. So, here’s a rose that stands out…” I lower my head. I promise you, I’ll do my best to be there for these guys, Ri, Tatum, and Heaven. We will fucking be there for them all. And if you do happen to come across Hecate, tell her Skyla Rossi sends her a fuck you. I smirk at my thoughts but it’s no joke, Hecate did us fucking dirty. Jainana had imprisoned herself in one of their secure cells when she learned of the command from Hecate, and although she recovered
