Semua Bab Betrayed Werewolf Princess: The Demon Prince's Pet: Bab 1 - Bab 10

[[The Northern Kingdom of Velmira. Home of Wolf Shifters]]***~~PRINCESS LYRIC VAELGOR~~***The happiest day of my life was supposed to be my wedding day.Or so I thought.I was glowing with joy, counting down the minutes until I became Jorath Dainvale's wife—the Beta's son, my perfect match. I couldn't wait one more second, couldn't wait to stand before the world and vow myself to him forever.What I didn't know, however, was that I’d be walking into a trap, that I’d be betrayed by everyone I loved that day."Where are we going, Uncle?" I asked.My uncle, Alpha Tiberan Vaelgor, the Alpha Regent of our pack, was leading me away from the castle gates and into the woods. “To meet your groom, Lyric,” he replied."Do we have to walk this far? I'm tired, and these shoes are killing me.”"Be patient, Lyric. You'll be with him soon enough."I'd been awake since dawn, enduring hours of preparation—servants scrubbing my skin until it gleamed, arranging my hair with moonstone beads, paintin

*** ~~PRINCE CALIX MALZARETH~~ *** I thought werewolves were supposed to be a lot tougher than this. The red-haired princess lay sprawled in the dirt, her wedding gown torn and filthy, begging me to take her life. “Please, Lord Calix. Kill me.” My men stood in a loose formation behind me, silent, waiting. I stared at her. I could smell her. It wasn’t just the usual earthy, musky scent of wolves. No, this was different. Warmer. Spiced. Like smoked honey and crushed oranges. A scent that shouldn’t exist. I knew what it was, but I’d be damned if I admitted it to myself. It was impossible. Khra'gixxes didn't mate with werewolves. I should probably just snap her neck, leave her in this forest to rot. It was kinder. Better than whatever awaited her in my court. But I wasn’t kind. And I was weirdly fascinated by her. I sighed, standing up. “Bring the wolf to her feet and take off her collar,” I commanded. Two of my men stepped forward, gripping her arms,

*** ~~CALIX MALZARETH~~ *** The little wolf's blood ignited something inside me that had been dead for years now, my ability to fully shift into Tai, my inner demon. A lot of people in the other kingdoms didn't know this, but the Khra'gixxes were getting weaker. Our shadow magic, our shifting ability, they were no longer what they used to be. And then there was the infertility issue. Pregnant Khra'gixxian women were becoming a rarity. I hadn't had an erection in months. But now, just one taste of Lyric's blood, and Tai was seconds away from ripping my skin apart just to get more of the wolf. ‘Let me out,’ he said. ‘No. You'll tear her apart.’ ‘Let me have her, Calix. Let me mark her.’ ‘No way.’ The words I said to Tai were more for myself than for Tai. After all, I was the one feeding him my emotions, my hunger, my lust. If I let myself go, I’d not stop feeding from her until I drained her. “What do you mean I’m not just a wolf?” Lyric said. “I grew up in Velmira

[[The Southern Kingdom of Noctis Vhaelor. Home of Khra'gixxes]] *** ~~CALIX MALZARETH~~ *** After landing in the palace and finding the little wolf a room, I finally made my way to the throne room to face the one creature in the realm more dangerous than Tai when he was angry: my father. Emperor Draekor Malzareth. There he was. Sitting on his throne, face squeezed in anger. News travelled fast around here. Of course he'd heard. “Father,” I said, stepping past the guards who lined the perimeter like lifeless statues. My boots echoed as I walked toward the throne. He didn’t even blink. “What is this nonsense I hear?” he said. “You brought a wolf into Noctis Vhaelor?” “I did.” “Your reason being?” “I brought her in as a pet.” “A pet.” He spat the word like it was poison. “You have three other pets. I’ve tolerated those awful creatures crawling around this palace like rats. But I draw the line at a wolf. She’s not staying here.” “I expected that reaction,” I said, steppin

Prince Calix stood watching me, impatience written all over his face. “I wasn't laughing when I said it, was I?” “You want to dump me with another one of your siblings? I almost got decapitated minutes ago by Princess Zephira, in case you’ve forgotten. She would’ve succeeded too if you hadn’t shown up.” “A fact I’m aware of.” “No, clearly you’re not, because if you were, you wouldn’t be taking me to your brother!” Calix didn’t flinch. Whatever softness he displayed minutes ago when he'd found me in a pool of my blood was gone. This was the general commander again. The executioner. The son of the man who killed my parents. “You can either move on your own accord,” he said, “or I’ll have guards move you. Either way, you’re going.” Behind him, Lyta, Tundra, and Snaky were exchanging looks, probably wondering if I’d grown a second head. Maybe it was because I’d raised my voice. Maybe it was because I dared speak to their master like the asshole he was. I didn’t care. I was too tire
