The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation Novel

---- cunning.

"Important information? Tell me, and Ill pass it on to him." "Oh no, sir, that doesnt seem right.

This is...

far too delicate.

My memory isnt great eitherIll only remember properly if I speak to the foreman myself.

And, of course, a few coins might help loosen my tongue, dont you think?" The guard sneered at him with disgust.

Damn filthy peasants.

"Wait here," he muttered, turning to enter the tent, grumbling insults that Alvaro and Gordon obviously heard.

They didnt care.

Their goal was to buy time for the othersthen meet up with them later.

"Come inside.

The boss will" the guard began saying when he suddenly stiffened, looking behind them, his face frozen.

Alvaro and Gordon heard it toothe pounding of hooves, several horses galloping closer.

"Damn it.

You two, stay here." The guard suddenly seemed nervous about the newcomers.

He hurried inside the tent, likely to warn the foreman of the surprise inspection.

Alvaro turned slightly and watched the riders arrive.

His gaze locked onto a woman leading the group, waiting to dismount her horse.

She saw him tooher shock and disbelief were immediate, etched onto ---- her face as she recognized him.

"Get out of here now.

Run with the other: "But Alvaro" "NOW, damn it.

Weve just been discovered.

Get out, Ill catch up with you," he gritted out, keeping his voice low, subtly shielding Gordon behind his back so he could slip away under the cover of the tent and the night.

It was better if they caught one of them rather than all.

Alvaro immediately saw the woman dismounting hurriedly, speaking with a blond man who had also just jumped off his horse.

He casually started walking in the opposite direction, away from where the others were.

Naturally, he acted as anyone would when caughthe tried to flee.

"Hey, laborer! Hold ona second!" a rough voice called after him.

Alvaro didnt think twicehe ran.

Why the hell was Alexia here?! What a damn stroke of bad luck.

But even worsehe hadnt been able to warn the Duke about the danger lurking right beside him.
