The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 10. More Than Words
ROYCE. “How fucking obvious did you make it?” Leo asks as I run my fingers through my hair. “I swear I did not sense her there.” “Yeah?” “He’s not wrong, and it’s me who let it slip.” Skyla says defensively, but I pull her close to calm her. “Yeah, like your fucking father, you don’t know how to hold back shit.” He says, frowning at her. She glares back at him, and I move her behind me slightly. Leo has every right to be angry, and I rather that anger is directed at me than Skyla. She glares at Leo with equal venom, but she doesn’t say anything more. “This isn’t something I wanted her to find out like this, but why does it feel like you don’t seem too bothered?” I ask, looking at Leo. He tilts his head and cocks a brow. “From my conversation with her earlier, I deduced she would have probably agreed.” He says. “And she’s so sweet. Did you see her only concern was little Phoenix, otherwise that little Humpty Dumpty would have taken a fall.” Skyla says, shaking her head. We bo
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 11. When Two Lycans Clash
SKYLA. “Oh for fuck’s sake,” Leo says when we hear Dad. I sigh. I need to face him eventually and I want to get to him before he says something to hurt Royce. I spin around when Leo calls me. “Skyla.” “What?” I say as I pull open the door. “He’s a father, even if he is fucking acting like an uncivilised dickhead right now.” He says, making me smirk. I think I don’t mind him. “But?” I say, knowing he isn’t done. “But he’s still fucking worried about you. Things are going to get rough. I don’t need to be Dante to know that. It’s best we smooth shit out, because when shit hits the fucking fan, we are going to need to be… at an understanding with one another.” I roll my eyes. Honestly, these men and their egos. And yes, I have one too. “United? Is that the word you were looking for?” I taunt. “Na, I’m good.” He says. “But you get me, right?” “Aww, is it a hard pill to swallow ladder boy?” He pauses mid-drag on his cigarette, looking at me, before he coughs, making me smirk.
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 12. Father to Daughter
SKYLA. I don’t like that look. It’s a look I’ve seen in the mirror so many fucking times… He looks away, as if not wanting me to know what he’s feeling. A tense silence falls between us, and I hate where we’ve come to. I close my eyes, trying to calm down. Now I fucking feel guilty for saying that. “Well… I’m sorry, that you felt like that... I…” He pauses as if trying to recollect his thoughts. “Dad…” I exhale, opening my eyes and looking at him. “You don’t need to be sorry. You’re not responsible for the way I feel.” “I kinda am when I’m your father. You being a Lycan is my fucking fault. I know how it feels to be isolated, wondering why the fuck I’m even alive when I don’t fit in anywhere… it wasn’t exactly the entire truth but it’s how I felt.” He says, his voice is quiet, and even though he’s trying to hide them, there are so many emotions in them. I don’t know if I can do this. I feel too damn emotional, and he only makes it worse when he cups my face and looks into my ey
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 13. Another One Down
SKYLA. Saying goodbye to Royce was scary and so fucking emotional whilst trying to pretend it wasn’t, because I didn’t know when I’ll see him again. Sure, Leo wired us up, him with a new number, and made sure no one can get into my phone. At least I could talk to him, but still knowing that I won’t get to be by his side tonight… or until who knows when. Everyone agreed that it would be too risky, and he needs to stay away from anywhere near the Shadow Wolves Pack or the academy. Fuck. I never knew I was so fucking needy until him… but it was always like this… even when we were talking as Reign and Luciferess, we couldn’t spend a day without talking. He kept his walls up, but his hug lasted a little longer. The way he cupped my face and caressed my cheek was for a moment longer… as if he too knew we won’t see each other soon. I don’t want that. We’re now at Midnight Academy, in the headmaster’s office and Rivers has just given Dad his unwanted opinion on how I should be in schoo
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 14. Hot Drinks & Discussions
SKYLA. It’s a few hours later and Dad, Ri, Liam, and I are in the human city, in a small coffee shop that is nestled away in the corner of the town on a quiet street. Country music is playing softly in the background and although it isn’t my type of music, I can’t deny that it makes me want to tap my foot along to it. Raihana has put a spell around us, so no one can hear what we are saying as we discuss the goings ons over hot drinks and a variety of desserts including cream cakes, donuts, and biscuits. A conversation which is completely the opposite of the warm ambience of the café. “The body was in a bad state.” Liam says, pulling a face from where he’s sitting beside me. Dad is opposite me where he is sitting next to Ri. Malevolent is under the table, rubbing against my legs as Ri stirs her coffee, her head resting on Dad’s shoulder. Neither Ri nor I had seen Zayn’s body as she had said she didn't want to. I had wanted to, but both Dad and Liam agreed I didn’t need to see it.
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 15. Glimpses to Come
SKYLA. “Who?” I ask curiously. “Not for you to fucking know.” He replies with a smirk, and I wonder who he means, the way he said Dante gets the Alpha position… then who does he mean? Raihana sighs, running her fingers through her hair. “Long day?” Dad asks, putting his arm around her shoulders. She leans against him and picks up her coffee, smiling up at him. “Yeah, Heaven’s powers are manifesting and they’re taking a toll on her and it’s only making her anger worse.” She says. “I’m sure I was never this bad.” “Raf had a way to get through to you.” Dad says. She nods, a sad smile on her lips. “Yeah, I was Daddy’s little girl.” She says, looking away for a moment, but I’m certain her eyes are glistening. The original Rossi Princess, the first-born daughter of the next generation and she is definitely a princess. Dad pulls her closer, kissing her forehead. He’s always been that father figure to her, especially after Uncle Raf died… I didn’t know him… but it hurts, the way ever
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 16. In the Courtroom
SKYLA. The courtroom is dark and almost ominous. It makes me feel like I’ve committed a crime and I’m here to be sentenced. Well, I kind of fucking am thanks to stupid Heather, the fucking Feather-Brained twit. Last night’s revelations had kept me up all night. That prophecy of Heaven’s was fucking intense and the fact she is going through that kind of heavy shit at that age is fucking unfair. I had filled Royce in on everything, well we kinda had a video chat, me, him, Leo, Azura and Kat. We had spent hours discussing it, and once we had switched off, he had stayed on the phone all night with me. Talking, flirting and maybe a little bit of dirty talking. Even when I fell asleep he didn’t switch it off. In the morning when he heard me wake up his ‘good morning’ in that deep husky morning voice of his had made me wish he was here so I could kiss him hard and fuck him. I miss you, Magic Fingers. I’m wearing a black high-neck ribbed top, leather pants and boots. The little brat is
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin 17. The Trial
SKYLA. “We will probe the mind of Heather Penbrook first.” Janaina states clearly, looking at the young witch and motioning her to come forward. “Heather, step to the front of the podium.” Janaina herself, steps up onto the dais and nods at Raihana and Magdalene. “You got this,” Raihana says, giving me a small smile before she joins the other two on the dais. Although Janaina will be doing the spell, they will be making sure everything goes accordingly. Heather stands up hesitantly but before she can even step around the low barrier, her father stands up. “I object. How can a witch related to the suspect be a part of this?” Raihana’s eyes flash as she turns and glares at him. “We are in a room full of many witches, any foul play would be seen.” She says icily. “Serafina…” Magdalene says warningly. “I am stating facts.” Raihana cuts her off. “Remember that.” Magdalene frowns, but even without being an official member of the coven, it’s obvious she has a strong hold over them.

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
The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin Epilogue Part 2
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
