The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation Novel

---- Valeria, meanwhile, checked on Sigrid, who was seated in an armehair, catching her breath.

Her back was killing hercarrying three supernatural beings hadnt been easy.

"No, not really.

Its just that...

no one has seen a female lycan in...

well, I cant even remember how long, and Im quite ancient," Gabrielle admitted with an embarrassed smile.

"But shes healthy, and they can care for her just like their other pup," she added, glancing toward the bed.

"I feel like this is a sign of change.

Things will get better." She murmured with emotion.

The lycan race, once believed nearly extinct, would flourish again.

They had already paid for their past sins against the elementalsit was time for their resurgence.

ad Awhile later, after organizing and replacing the sheets with fresh, clean ones, everyone had left the room.

Elliot and Katherine had no idea how to properly thank the Selenias for their invaluable help.

Witches on broomsticks are here to support each other," Valeria joked with a wink at Katherine, who would have smiled in gratitude if she werent still in wolf form.

Without them, she might not have made it.

---- Ereya left with instructions that Aldo and Tomés would hunt to help Elliot during the upcoming weeks.

They did as told and sighed in relief, knowing everything had gone well.

The entire castle buzzed with curiosity, despite Elliots efforts to keep everything intimate within his pack.

To most elementals, this was an exotic event.

Of course, after the " clean-up," only trusted personnel remained to care for them.

The private investigator had been promoted to Royal Chief Investigator, now the terror of anyone who even considered rebellion.

Before the thought of protest could even form in someones mind, guards were already at their doorstep, arresting them.

This was how the Realm was governed with an iron fist in the beginning.

But over time, the most vulnerable realized that the Dukes of Everhart only passed laws to promote equality and improve their lives.

The Realm flourished, and the hatred toward supernatural beings in their hearts slowly faded over the years.

Back to the present, Elliot's body shifted, and in the darkness of the "den," the iron bed groaned dangerously as the massive lycan emerged.

Vorath wrapped himself around his mate and pups, lying on his side across the enormous bed, barely fitting, pulling them tightly against his chest.

He lovingly licked the little she-wolfs muzzle, telling her how ---- much he loved and thanked her for this incredible gift.

Soon after, nestled in their fathers dark fur, the two tiny bundles snuggled up to sleep, practically invisible, seeking warmth.

Vorath didnt even dare to breathe, afraid of disturbing them.

Katherine couldnt hold on any longer.

With her magic depleted, her body shifted back into the elemental form that represented half of her heritage.

"Vorath, Elliot," she sighed, resting against his broad, muscular chest, carefully avoiding pressing their pups against her belly.
