All Chapters of The Lycan King's Forbidden Fruit.: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

[Rosalie’s POV]I look from Diego’s mother to Diego as my heart shatters into a million pieces. This was it. I was really leaving and would never see him again. Would he be okay without me? Would he come looking for me? I didn’t know, but a small part of me hoped he did.“Time’s ticking.” Diego’s mother purrs. “Get dressed and come on.”Nodding, I climb off the bed, grabbing my clothes off the ground and quickly pulling them on. “I’m coming.”Once I’m dressed, I follow Diego’s mother out into the hall, where Kate waits wearing nothing but a robe and a look of triumph.“I guess you aren’t as dumb as I thought.” She says, tossing her long, dark hair over her shoulder. “Don’t worry, I won’t hold it against you that you slept with my fiance. Just do me a favor and stay gone.”I don’t bother responding as she shoves her way past me and into the room. After she shuts the door so whatever happens next in there is hidden from the world, I turn and meet Diego’s mother’s gaze."Remember, this i

[Diego’s POV]I jump out of bed while my lycan rages, threatening to take control as my panic and fear that something happened to Rosalie grows.“Diego!” My father snaps, grabbing me.“DON’T FUCKING TOUCH ME!” I roar, letting my aura explode from me, so it sends him crashing backwards.Ignoring the yells of everyone else in the room, I move, extending my senses as I do so in hopes that maybe, just maybe, Rosalie is nearby, but there’s not a single fucking trace of her.“Dammit.” I growl, taking the stairs two at a time. “Where the fuck is she?”Bursting out of the packhouse, I look around, hoping that she may be there, but when I come up empty, I turn my gaze toward the small house where Anthrose and possibly Chanel should be right now.“That’s right.” I hiss, breaking into a full run.When I reach the house, I burst inside, drawing Chanel’s gaze toward me.“What the hell?” She says, eyeing me. “What the hell is going on, and why are you naked?”“That isn’t important.” I snap.“It is.

[Diego’s POV]I stare at the city in front of me while letting the scents of it hit my nose. After five fucking years, this was the only lead I got toward Rosalie’s location. Five long, fucking years of searching with absolutely no results. It was like she disappeared entirely or never existed at all, and it was so fucking infuriating!Turning, I watch as Giddeon gets out of the car I’m standing in front of and comes to join me.“Ready?” He asks me, pulling out a piece of paper that contains the address of our informant. “I’m sure that Kate and your mother are probably have a coniption over your sudden disappearance.”“I don’t give two shits.” I huff, taking the paper from him and eyeing it. “I wasn’t the one who allowed Kate to live in the walls of Moon Storm.”“Maybe,” Giddeon agrees. “But what about Landon?”For a moment, I don’t respond as the young child's face pops into my mind. Although I was certain that nothing could have happened between Kate and me, she ended up pregnant on

[Diego’s POV]Rage rushes through me as Gil keeps his gaze calmly on me. Was this bastard being serious right now? He was actually threatening to ruin me if I were to find Rosalie. Well, he could try it.“I’ll accept your challenge.” I grin, getting to my feet. “Thank you for taking the time to see me.”“Leaving so soon?” Gil asks, leaning back in his seat. “When we were just starting to get to something interesting.”“Sorry, but I have important matters to take care of.” I respond. “I’ve already gotten all that I need.”“So you will stay away from Rosalie?”“Not a chance.” I chuckle. “Don’t you know that when someone tells me that I can’t do something, it just makes me want to do it even more?”Not bothering to say anything more, I start to move while Giddeon jumps up and follows me. It is only when we reach the elevator and are inside that he fixes his gaze on me.“What are you planning?” He asks. “Are you really going to go against Blue Moon?”I was. If Gil De’Evangeline thought th

[Diego’s POV]I stare down at Rosalie, taking her in as the urge to reach out and grab her bubbles up in me. After five years, she looks almost the same, aside from being more rounded out and much more alive than she did back then. Her eyes, which are wide and unwavering, are exactly how I remember them, but there’s something in them that makes my heart ache.“How?” She asks quietly.How. Was she asking how I found her? Was she really that upset that we were back together after being apart for so fucking long?“Disappointed?” I ask slowly, my lips twitching into a frown. “Were you that hell bent on staying away from me forever?”As the words leave my lips, the pain that I’m feeling increases, and anger mixes in as well. Although I didn’t want to believe that she stayed away for so long by choice, every fucking thing in front of me was saying that she did.With each passing minute, I could feel my lycan stirring and, with him, the rage that I always feel bubbling in me.“Tell me!” I hi
