Semua Bab Stealing the Heart of the Lycan King: Bab 61 - Bab 70

CALANTHAJust as I had expected, by the time the ball was over, Kaiden was completely wasted. He had told Bradley not to bother him tonight, which meant I was the one stuck with the impossible task of getting him out of the hall. With one of his heavy arms slung over my shoulder, I struggled to steady him as we made our way out of the hall. He was so heavy that I kept stumbling under his weight, muttering curses under my breath. I wished Bradley or even my friends were here to help me.But they weren’t.Eloise and Nyx had left earlier after we settled things with the maid— aka Ryker’s little spy. Honestly, I wasn’t even that surprised when she admitted he was the one behind it all. Ryker was insane and capable of the most ridiculous, childish things.To make sure Kaiden knew the real truth about what had happened, I had asked Nyx to record the maid’s confession on my phone. When I showed it to him later, he would finally see that I wasn’t careless with the necklace and that it had be

KAIDEN As my eyes slowly peeled open as I woke up, my arm instinctively reached for the other side of the bed, as if expecting to find someone there. As if someone should be there. But the space beside me was empty. Still, it felt warm and a strange feeling lingered, like someone had been there just moments ago. Like my body wasn’t wrong to expect their presence. Maybe it was because of the dream I had where I was holding Calantha close all night, feeling her warmth against me, and feeling my hardness rub against her soft ass and thighs. It was a strange dream that was almost too real. A sudden knock at the door pulled me from my thoughts, followed by Bradley’s voice. “May I come in, my king?” I groaned sleepily, finally forcing myself to sit up as I rubbed the sleep from my eyes. A sharp throbbing pain shot through my head, making me wince. I brought my fingers to my temples, trying to ease it. A hangover. That explained why I had blacked out last night. “Come in.” I muttered

CALANTHAI barely saw Kaiden throughout the weekend. At some point, I started to feel like he was avoiding me.And honestly, I didn’t understand why.Maybe it was because of what happened at the ball… when that Cross guy kissed me. But that didn’t make sense either, because I had given the video of the maid’s confession to Bradley, and he said he showed it to Kaiden.So if Kaiden knew the truth, why would he still be upset with me? Unless it wasn’t about that at all. Maybe it was something else entirely.Either way, I had no real chance to ask him. He was busy this weekend, attending council meetings, visiting other packs, or locked away in serious conversations with his mother.By the end of the weekend, I told myself I was probably being selfish for wanting his attention. Maybe he was just busy.But even when Monday came and we rode to the academy together, he barely looked my way. He didn’t stare at me ridiculously at my lame jokes or give me dry replies like he usually did.In our

CALANTHA“I know everyone already knows how this game works, but how about we add a new twist this time?” said the same guy who had made the earlier announcement.We were all gathered around now. Eloise, Nyx, and I sat on one lounge chair, while Isadora and Sara sat directly across from us. Jameson and his group were huddled together on another lounge nearby, with Miranda practically glued to his side. A girl in a bikini was sitting on Ryker’s lap, clearly enjoying the attention. Across from me sat Lysandra, who did everything she could to avoid my gaze.With everyone settled, the guy began explaining the new rules.“So, what’s the twist?” Miranda asked curiously.“I hope it’s something nasty,” the bikini girl said, sticking out her tongue in a wild way as she twerked her barely clad ass on Ryker’s lap. Laughter erupted from the group, and a few people even clapped.In the middle of all the noise, I felt out of place. It wasn’t that I was judging anyone. I wasn’t. It just didn’t feel

CALANTHAThe gods… What in the world was I doing?I couldn’t sleep. My heart was pounding so loudly, I was sure Kaiden could hear it. I had my back turned to Kaiden who was now fast asleep behind me, the firm press of his length resting against my ass. He wasn’t even touching me, and yet, my core was already achingly drenched in an ocean wave of sexual anticipation as I mentally fought to get rid of the dirty thoughts in my mind.I should have left when he mentioned that he slept naked. That would have been the smart thing to do. But walking out would have made me look like a coward. And truth be told… I didn’t want to leave.The truth was, I planned this. I had injured my finger on purpose and lied about the ghost in my room just to have a reason to be here tonight. Dressed like this. In his bed. After all that had happened at the party tonight, I had made up my mind to have sex with Kaiden and give him a pup. Even if our contract expired and I was left all alone again, I would be
