SKYLA.

My heart clenches wondering why she didn’t come forward. Her friends died, and she didn’t care to even speak up or even pretend to care?

Like why?

I wonder what their families are going through.

“Is that her?” Royce asks, leaning down, his shoulder brushing the back of my shoulder.

He can see from afar, but having him move closer is comforting. Something I need…

I nod, glancing at him, as he crouches down beside the chair I’m sitting on.

“Can you call for her, Headmaster?” He says, his eyes cold as he looks at Rivers.

Rivers nods as he glances at the girl’s image before he turns.

“Ah, of course… I will… she has been in school… for her not to say anything is troubling….” He mutters.

“Maybe yeah… but we’ll fucking find out why.” Dad says, completely ignoring the no-smoking policy of the school as he lights up a cigarette.

Rivers excuses himself from the room. The door shuts behind him and I sigh, running my fingers through my hair.

“I’m assuming you shifted, and she sa

Hello everyone! Recently I have noticed I've not been living up to the expectations I have set myself or promised to my readers. I truly dislike not being consistent or fulfilling my promises, but for the last few months life has gotten extremely demanding for multiple reasons. :(I know it's not an excuse but I find myself pushing or changing updates so often that it's upsetting me too. So I've decided until life stops throwing stuff at me I will be changing my 'schedule' or in this case there will be no schedule. My aim will be to update both stories consistently as possible and for the most part I'll try to update them turn by turn so neither is neglected. I push myself too hard sometimes and it is catching up.💔 Thank you for understanding! :(

    ROYCE. ‘And what are you doing here, Royce? Answer me. You are with the Lycan King… I do not want you to mess this up for us. Understood?’ Dad warns as he takes a seat, his face not betraying his emotions. I ignore him. After how he behaved, does he really think I’m just going to agree with anything that he says? I cross my arms, ignoring the two of them. I can see the signs that Aleric is irritated with the fact that I’m here, he’s trying to cover it and the way he keeps looking at Skyla is irritating me more than ever. The fact that he lied to her and pretended to be me, has only made me extremely furious and it’s not something I am going to simply let slide. But until she’s had a word with him as she requested, I will have to control myself. Something that is fucking hard. I’ve never felt angrier at him as I do over this… Speaking of control, even trying to control myself around her is bloody difficult. She makes me crazy, and I want her. She crosses her long legs sexily as s

    SKYLA. Night has fallen, and I am packing up. Dad doesn’t want me here anymore and, in all honesty, I can’t blame him for worrying. I scan the boxes I’ve packed, there aren’t many, and my suitcases are almost done too. This sure was short-lived. Royce had offered to help pack up, but I told him I’m all good, besides I know he’s barely slept, and I have a feeling he has a lot to deal with, with his own Dad. I had seen the looks his father had been giving him and there is clear tension between them, unlike Aleric who seems to be in his father’s good graces. Speaking of the cunt, I had told him to come down and I didn’t want Royce here when I called him. I’m so fucking pissed at that snake. Seeing the way, he was behaving at school… fuck how blind was I? He is such a fucking suck-up. I saw how what happened with the witches affected Dad. I mean he has always done everything for others, trying to protect them, doing what’s right but I also sensed his struggle… He stood down because it

    ALERIC. I catch her before she falls to the floor, watching as the contents of the syringe empties into her neck completely before slowly removing it. My heart’s thumping as I look down at her. How dare she disrespect me? I feel angry at her, and at the same time, I want to claim her and make her mine, break her to submission. I slip the syringe into my pocket, grabbing her face tightly in my hand. She’s much more beautiful when she’s not awake… When she isn’t so arrogant and feisty. Soon…. Soon she’ll become mine, she’ll obey me like a bitch does her owner. I chuckle darkly at my thoughts, leaning down and kissing her lips softly. Ah, she tastes delicious… I glance around the bathroom, contemplating my next move, before turning and carrying her out of the room. She won’t remember any of this in the morning. Her stupid cat hisses at me as she rushes to Skyla the moment I place her on the bed. The dumb feline darts at me, scratching me across the face and I snarl, the sting bu

    ROYCE. “There. All better.” Kiara says, stroking Malevolent’s head before she leans down and kisses Skyla’s forehead. “Thanks…” Skyla says quietly. Kiara looks concerned, but she doesn’t say anything more to Skyla. I’m sitting beside Skyla, and it’s the first time I’ve seen her so scared and upset. Her heart was thumping hard for the entire drive here and there were times when she had been close to tears, which only made me feel useless - knowing she’s hurting and there was nothing I could do to help. Even when she forced herself to eat in the car, for my sake, she didn’t have an appetite and she could only think of Malevolent. I had told her not to force herself. Malevolent means the world to her. Only when her Mom had healed Malevolent did her troubled emotions calm, but for some reason there is guilt in her eyes. I hope she isn’t blaming herself for the fact Malevolent somehow got injured. We’re at the Night Walkers Pack now. We had arrived here as fast as possible, and Sky

    ROYCE. What on earth… The hair at the back of my neck stands on edge and I break the kiss, turning towards the door, my eyes flashing. Then, I hear it. The footfalls, albeit quiet, seem to ring in my head and I frown. I’ve never felt such power… Someone steps into the entrance and I find myself looking at a tall, muscular, well-built man that isn’t just omitting an immense aura, but he himself is the entity of pure power. He must be nearly 7 feet tall, with a head full of black curls. He’s wearing sunglasses despite being inside and he has an angled jaw and a light stubble. He’s dressed in black jeans, boots and a baggy t-shirt with a few necklaces, one that stands out with a crystal at the end. His attention is on us. The power radiating off him is so intense that even Malevolent wakes up and runs off to the corner, hiding under a table before curling up and settling to sleep again. “I seem to be intruding.” He says, raising a brow, and I realise Skyla is still in my lap. I l

    SKYLA.Mama had made a delicious meal, and Royce had not failed in complimenting her several times, making her blush happily.“No really, it’s delicious.” Royce says as he eats Mama’s signature brownies with hot custard. “You went out of your way to make so much.”“Oh thank you, it really wasn’t much at all!” Mama exclaims, waving her hand.I cock a brow.Wasn’t much? She went full out with six different dishes and three desserts…“You are too modest Kiara.” Royce replies, placing his spoon down, and I can’t help but notice the way his tongue runs along his lips.Yeah, Mama had been adamant he calls her Kiara. I bet Dad wouldn’t be happy with these two getting on so well, but with everything going on with the witches and the death noodle, he had to stay down there to deal with matters.Night has fallen and Mama has told us to stay the night, and to be fair, I don’t mind. I need the break away from everything and even better; she was insistent that Royce also stay, and that is something

  • The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin   73. More Than My Expectations

    ROYCE. I don’t know exactly what happened between the siblings, but when Skyla’s face lost all colour, and I saw the guilt and regret in her eyes, I had had enough. Standing up, I had excused us and led her out of the room. She refused to speak and instead had led the way upstairs to her bedroom where Kiara had told us, she had placed some fresh items of clothes for me. The moment the door shut behind us, I locked it and then turned to Skyla, who walked over to her walk-in closet and began rummaging for something. Her movements are rushed, and she’s knocking things as she does. “I’ll shower first if that’s ok.” She says, as I hear something fall and break. I walk to the closet, sensing her aura rising fast. Her claws have come out and I can see the white hair beginning to sprout from her arms, and the hair on her head is beginning to turn white. “Sky.” She ignores me as she bends down, cursing as she picks up the ceramic box she has broken. “Fuck.” She mutters as it cuts into

    ROYCE. My eyes flash as I look at her sharply. “You don’t mean that… What did he say to you?” I ask, my suspicions confirmed. “Answer me Skyla.” “Just the truth,” she responds bitterly, but I can hear the sadness in her voice. “His opinion is not the truth.” I answer, clenching my jaw. Despite my anger, I caress her cheek gently. Don’t push me away… “Dante… knows a lot.” “He isn’t God.” I counter coldly. She scoffs lightly. “He kinda is….” She murmurs, her eyes glistening with tears, her voice breaking as she continues. “What he says is mostly true. He said I’ll destroy you, and I probably will.” Destroy me? “I don’t believe that. Even the gods are not always correct. I will fight all odds for you Skyla, ask me for anything and it’s yours. If destruction is what my future is, then so be it, because there are no others by whose hands I would want to be destroyed.” I let go of her, and gently take her hands in mine, I hold them to my chest as I gaze into her eyes. “Yet you a

    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 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.

    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

    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

    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.”

    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

    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

    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

    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
