The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 60. For Me
SKYLA. Warmth. It’s so warm... And it smells so good… I open my eyes, and my heart skips a beat. Royce. I’m in Royce’s arms… I died. I smile softly. That’s why it’s so peaceful… ‘Death is not what you deserve, Lycan princess.’ Bastet? ‘Then what do I deserve?’ ‘Embrace every part of you that makes you… you fought him, and you broke his hold upon you. You did that, child.’ ‘Yeah, by killing myself.’ ‘Attempted to kill yourself. You did not succeed.’ My eyes snap open as I stare up at Royce’s neck. His scent, the feeling of his body against mine. This feels so real… What? ‘Your life was saved and for a good cause, your death would mean Apophis will always have a hold on this world. Always.’ ‘How are you speaking to me now? You were gone?’ I ask. ‘Hecate’s daughters helped channel my energy to you.” ‘I see… I’m a danger to them, to them all.’ ‘In the bathroom when you took a stand, refusing to hurt anyone any longer, and determined that even death is better than hur
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 61. The Witches
RAIHANA.My heart is hollow.I never knew a person can feel so empty…When a thousand emotions should be coursing through me, ripping into me like a plague, clawing away into me, I’m oddly… blank.That is how I was feeling until last night when I realised that my family needs me.It left me numb. I somehow manage to turn my emotions off, almost.A part of me wonders if subconsciously I have cut my emotions off. A dangerous little trick that witches can do… because without our emotions… we are far more deadly…But… my family needs me, my children need me, and I need vengeance.For my man.The last conversation I had with him before we parted ways that day replay in my mind.(FLASHBACK)“Hey, kiss me goodbye,” Chris smirks cockily as he pulls me back into his arms.I roll my eyes, “I’ll be seeing you in half an hour. Wasn’t that kiss enough?” I ask airily, raising my eyebrow as I run my hand up his shoulders.“That was a peck, but I admit even if it was a kiss that lasted a million lifet
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 62. The Start
ROYCE.“Why would they help him, though?” Marcel says quietly.“Not to mention Skyla said he had injected her with something three times to gain control of her, according to Bastet,” I say, frowning.“Oh, yeah?” Leo says, his eyes flashing. “This shit is fucking twisted.”“But that took him three doses,” Raihana says.“Exactly. So how did he manage to control the witches?” Kiara says.I can tell she’s trying to contain her emotions, knowing her daughter’s just left.“I don’t know…” Raihana murmurs. “But there’s something Magdalene was trying to say…Skyla’s promise when she pleaded for me to allow her to do this replays in my mind, and the seed of self-doubt is beginning to grow.As they talk, worried about her, I remain silent, trying to contain my emotions.I let her do this. I let her go to him alone.What if he finds out she’s pretending? What if he tries to hurt her?Was it wise after she tried to kill herself?Will her promise to return to me be enough?I run my fingers through m
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 63. In a Row
RIC THE DICK. “I want them to feel the pain,” she murmurs, staring ahead. “I want them to feel the pain I was in as they held me against my will!” “Oh?” I ask. I don’t trust her fully. Not after she’s been with them… Never underestimate your enemy. We are on the way to the Arden mansion at her request. She thinks as the rightful next Alpha, it’s my duty to be there, for my pack and people. And of course, I think it’s very important for them to know I am in charge. I rang ahead, commanding them to secure the place and making it clear Royce is not to step onto Shadow Wolves' ground. She’s touching me, but that spark between us has lessened. It’s strange, but these days I don’t really feel my wolf anymore. An odd wave of regret washes over me, he is- was a part of me, his emotions and mine mixed… Now I wonder if he’s simply closed off or is dying. He fought the powers given to me by Apophis, and I had to shut him down. He wasn’t strong enough for me! I needed more! I look down
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 64. Bastet
SKYLA. Fucking worm. The only thing keeping me sane is the fact that I need to make sure I’m successful in this act. Once he’s inside that building, our spells and everything will secure him there. Just a bit fucking longer. Last night I told Dante about the plans for the engagement. It is the perfect way to lower this loser’s guard a little. Even when he hit me across the face, I acted like it didn’t matter, despite the fact I wanted to rip him to fucking pieces. I’m biding my time and I am going to bitch slap him into fucking tomorrow. I look down at my arm, as one of the two makeup artists covers my tattoo up. She-wolves that he didn’t seem to care to not check out in front of me when he had first told them what he wanted from me. He’s fucking sick, like he’s chosen an outfit that will cover me from neck to fucking toes, saying I’ll look like a lady. Yet, he is happily allowed to check out and enjoy looking at other women with skin on show. I can’t stand him. Danielle and
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 65. His Delusion
SKYLA. I’m about to say something when I feel a wisp of air swirl around me. She’s leaving! Although I know she’ll remain in a way, I won’t ever get to talk to her again and oddly, that fills me with sorrow. ‘I won’t fail you.’ ‘I believe you won’t. I have faith in you, my Lioness.’ Her words seem to echo inside of me and my eyes flash as I feel something like a sharp zing rush through me. It affects my arms, and my head and it’s intense on my stomach and back. My eyes blaze and I stare in the mirror at my now cat-like eyes before I close them, not wanting the women to notice them. I won’t fail you like your people, Bastet. She’s gone. The moment I felt that touch, I felt it. She’s still with me, but not in the way she has been until now. Now all I have left is what she has given me and hoped for from me. I won’t fail her. “There, we are all done,” Lenora says, I stare in the mirror. The woman in front of me is not me, but an image of the ideal woman in the eyes of Aleric.
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 66. Uninvited Guests
SKYLA. We reach the venue soon enough, and it is as beautiful as its name. The entire building is made of mainly crystal glass, with pearlescent pillars and beams. The witches are surrounding it, blending into the shadows of the trees and archways. Most are outside… Perfect. ‘The witches think the attack will come from the outside, don’t they?’ I say through the link as the doors shut behind us. ‘Yeah, and it fucking will for the most part, but once we’re in those outside will be locked out and those inside, inside. No fucking witch can stop us from crashing that fucking engagement,’ Dad’s growl comes. I can’t help but smile slightly. Never have I been happier to hear Grump Bear’s growl. ‘Care to share why the fuck you sprung the idea of getting engaged to him? A tad fucking extreme, don’t you think?’ he asks. ‘Because Gherkin Dick is conceited. I needed something extreme to make it more believable.’ I reply. ‘I’ll see you guys soon,’ ‘Soon.’ Kataleya’s soft voice comes as I
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 67. Her Sacrifice
SKYLA Aleric and I both turn sharply. My stomach does a flip when I spot him. There he stands, the Solaris Sword of the king, in the hands of the Solaris King himself. There’s my man. My Reign. My Alpha. My Fucking King. He’s wearing a white formal shirt that hugs his muscles and grey pants. A murmur ripples through the room as a sharp wind blows around him and he strides across the hall, cutting through the crowds as he reaches the dais. A few witches jump forward, but his shield of violent wind is impenetrable. “Royce!” Aleric snarls, raising his hand, flames rippling around his hand. Royce doesn’t reply as he steps onto the dais, skipping the three steps and reaching me in seconds. His arm snakes around my waist, and he yanks me against him, making me gasp. My heart pounding, as every ridge of his body moulds against mine. Oh so perfectly… “ROYCE!” Aleric thunders. Royce simply raises his sword, forcing him to keep his distance, his eyes on me. ‘One night without you

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
