The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation Novel

---- On the other side of the forest, Victoria waited. She had just finished speaking with Dracomir's "model father," and his horror story still echoed in her mind. By the time she felt the tremor in the ground, Rousse had already ---- arrived "lm glad you're safe," she said quickly, going to hug Meridiana, who seemed a little stunned Even so, the witch wrapped her arms around Victoria's shoulders and gave her a few pats. Victoria was clearly distressed and upset. "What happened?

Has someone threatened you?" Rousse also sensed her turbulent emotions. "No, it's nothing... it's just that things are more complicated than we thought..." With a sigh, she stepped away from the witch and gave them a brief rundown of what she knew. "Just what we needed... caught in the middle of a war in this world," Rousse muttered with a frown. By now, he had been honest with his woman. Meridiana was ready to follow him back to his realm once they found the way home.

After all, nothing here really held her back. "This isn't just any war. My mate's involved, and | won't leave ---- him alone," Victoria said firmly. "And where exactly are we supposed to get an army like the one you're talking about?" Rousse got straight to the point. "And even if we find one, how do you expect to create so many undead in such little time? You know perfectly well the amount of magic that takes.

Your father, who's way stronger than you, didn't build his army in two days..." "Ouch, no mercy. Thanks for the support, General," Victoria said, placing a hand on her chest and pretending to be offended "Rousse, don't be rude..." Meridiana smacked his shoulder, and he was more concerned about her hand than his own hide. "Still, he's right, and that's what has me a little pissed. Honestly, | regret not practicing more with my dad," Victoria pouted.

"But what if you had an extra source of magic?" Meridiana said suddenly, catching their attention. She pulled the handkerchief from her sash and revealed the * treasure" they had found. Victoria leaned in curiously and immediately recognized the latent power in just that tiny piece. Though she never connected the object to the cryptic message Katherine had left in her dream. ---- "I can extract small amounts and refine the dark magic. It's hard, since this power isn't ours, but the witches found a spell..." Rousse and Victoria exchanged a hopeful look "| know where we can get our soldiers," Victoria added, fire in her eyes.
