The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation Novel

ATTACK IN THE FOREST VALERIA Its not like I have much to pack .

On the bed , I make a small bundle with a few old clothes youve donated to me and , most importantly , the money the King gave me .

Thats all I have to survive .

Shielded by the night and the darkness , I wander through the corridors , glancing around fearfully , clearly intending to escape .

I reach the kitchen and search for the back door obviously I wont risk leaving through the main entrance .

When I glance at the counter where the Kings meals are served , a surge of anger rises in my chest .

Why would they do something like this ? Who could be so cruel as to send an innocent woman to certain death ? The maid who helped the one who cut her hand is my main suspect the one who had the opportunity while I was distracted .

Perhaps both of them are working together .

I step out into the inner courtyard and run toward the gate where the carts with supplies and goods enter .

The forest welcomes me dark and menacing .

Its frightening , and I have no idea where to go now .

However , fireworks echo in the distance , coming from the Backs lands , drawing my attention and deepening the Indecision in my chest .

I have nowhere to go .

Maybe theyre still searching for me out there .

And if not … what would I become ? Just a rogue without a pack , bait for any scum to abuse me or sell me as a slave to an even worse pack .

Maybe the housekeeper can help me give me another position if I explain everything to her properly .

Shes far more rational than the King I gamble everything on that decision and start following the stone path down the mountain toward the valley where the Golden Moon pack lies .

T Knock , knock , knock .

I knock repeatedly on the door of the house belonging to the housekeeper .

I had asked a woman , and she told me she lived here , yet the window was dark , and no one responded .

Could she be at the celebrations ? I thought about circling the house to be sure no one was home , but then , the angry voice of a man made me freeze .

Grab her ! No , no ! I didnt … wait ! Let go of me ! Aggh ! I groaned in pain as a brutal punch landed in my stomach , cutting me off and making me double over in agony .

Two of them seized me mercilessly by the arms , dragging me through the narrow back streets toward the forest .

Im innocent ! Please , let me speak to the housekeeper ! I can … I can explain- I tried pleading while stumbling through the trees , deeper and deeper into the darkness , far from the village .

I had no idea which direction we were heading .

No matter how hard I struggled and fought back , I was no match for two strong warriors .

I cried out as my body hit the hard earth covered in dead leaves , but I immediately tried to shift , desperate to escape .

Dont even think about running ! one of them snarled , pouncing on me , grabbing my hair roughly as he straddled my waist .

The other one pinned my wrists above my head , forcing me flat against the ground .

No matter how much I fought , I was completely overpowered .

Their rough hands groped me , rummaging through my clothes , and I felt sick as they grabbed my breasts and even forced their hands between my thighs , which I tried desperately to keep closed .

Boss , look what she had hidden between her tits , one of them sneered , pulling out the heavy leather pouch .

containing the money the King had given me .

Keep it ! Just let me go , please ! Ill leave your pack I swear ! Ill go and never look back ! I begged them , my eyes red with desperation , but I only saw the malice on their faces .

I knew nothing good would come of this .

Oh , well keep the money , ugly .

But dont think you can just leave that easily .

Didnt you want to fuck a man ? Guess youre in luck you have three now , sneered the one holding my wrists , gripping them so hard I felt like my bones might break .

Should we start this shit or what ? the man on top of me asked the leader .

Do whatever you want with her .

Nice tits , but with that face so scarred , Im losing my appetite .

Get it over with- we cant be out here too long , the leader answered .

Horrified , I watched as the man straddling my waist shifted beginning to unbutton his pants while casually talking to the other behind me discussing how they were going to violate me , splitting my body between them as if I were nothing but a piece of meat .

They said Aldric had ordered this .

And something inside me shattered .

I would have preferred he killed me with his own hands rather than face this humiliation .

I was blind in the darkness , making me feel even more vulnerable , more defenseless .

I struggled with all my strength as their hands pried my knees apart , forcing them open against my will .
