The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation Novel

---- 21.

MY STAR IN THE DARKNESS NARRATOR "What happened, Nana?! Who hurt you?" "Mom, Verak...

Verak was going to trick us all to get that woman..." she sobbed, hiccuping as she told her what she heard inside the hut.

There, there...

maybe that was just a trap from that harpy to humiliate you.

Dont be like this," she patted her back, clearly distressed.

This was the pup she had later in life, when she thought she'd never have an heiress.

Nana was the apple of her eye.

How dare Verak try to make her the laughingstock of the whole pack? And that woman...

Lyra again...

if only shed never shown up...

She had to get rid of her.

And Drakkar too! That male was turning into the very threat she had always feared! She wouldnt live forever, and Nana had to become the next Luna Healer.

She needed Veraks influence as the future Alpha.

Gertrudis clenched her teeth, full of hatred and calculations as she comforted her pup.

---- She could easily expose Drakkar, but deep down she had always feared his mysteries.

His previous healer mentor had found him as a baby in the jungle.

Said he had a vision that guided him to the boy.

Hed been crying on the grass, surrounded by predatorsand not one dared to eat him! Thats why he saved him.

He predicted Drakkar would become powerful, that he couldnt be offended.

But when he struggled to awaken his wolf at eighteen, everyone labeled him as weak.

Gertrudis saw him as a threat that needed to be kept poisoned and under control.

Now, he was rebelling because of Lyra.

How could she get rid of both of them quietly? Soon, the answer to her prayers arrived.

seek The Spring Festival was about to be held in the Red Jungle pack, far more advanced than theirs.

A team of warriors would be sent for trade, mostly to barter for salt, a valuable resource for the pack.

---- The journey was long and dangerous.

Anything could happen...

even sudden deaths.

"Alpha, since Drakkar is now a warrior, send him with the team.

and have him show off his new hunting tricks," Gertrudis suggested as soon as she heard the news.

"Great idea!" "Father, this time I'll lead the men," both turned to Verak, who spoke with a firm expression.

Gertrudis frowned.

She wanted to say no.

They couldnt risk the next leader.

But the Alpha made the call: alright.

That way the other males will respect you even more.

Its settledyoull lead the expedition." wee But before the next challenge on the path, returning to the moment when Lyra waited for her male in front of the mountain...

"There comes our sexy wild mate" Aztoria was drooling as always for her man.

"Drakkar, you took too long.

Is everything okay?" Lyra came closer, worried by the dried blood covering him from head to toe.

"Yeah, Im fine...

and you?..." his low, husky voice asked her in return.
