I’ve kissed before. I’ve had sex more times than I can count, pinned women down in this exact position, but nothing has ever

My beasts reacted differently this time, too differently. My eyes glowed as I locked her neck, grabbing her dress <b>and </b>sliding my hand down, needing to <b>touch </b>her thighs,
I was halfway through when she broke the kiss, panting hard.
“Listen, wait <b>wait</b>…” <b>she </b>murmured.
But I <b>wasn’t </b>listening.
I was already pressing kisses into her bare shoulder, tugging at the stubborn fabric of her dress, lost in the way her skin warmed beneath my mouth.
Lycannar!”
I froze.<fn8e52> Checktest chapters at fin?novel</fn8e52>
That name. My birth name. The cursed title my father gave me, one I’ve despised for most of my life… until now.
Until she said it.
From those lips I’ve imed. From that mouth that tastes like fury and need.
Slowly, I lifted my gaze to her. She saw the glow in <b>my </b>eyes before it dimmed.
She stared at me quiet, breathless. her voice soft
“We… we can’t do anything yet.”
I swallowed hard. She was right.
She still bore the bond to another. A mate chosen by fate or cruelty. I could no longer tell the <b>difference</b>.
Until that bond is broken, I should control this obsession.
I let out a <b>shaky </b>sigh and dropped my gaze, struggling to calm the need that wed at me.
I looked back up. Her lips were parted. Tempting.
I leaned in and kissed her once more, <b>Slowly</b>, making her lean into me.
Then I <b>pulled </b><b>back</b>. If I didn’t, I’d lose control <b>again</b>.
I walked to the wardrobe and pulled one of Serena’s dresses from the rail. I brought it to her.
She took it in silence.
Without looking back, Iturned <b>and </b>stepped toward the window. The night sky stretched endlessly above, dark and cruel.
I didn’t look at her, but I listened to the quiet rustle of her dressing. I gave her the privacy she needed. The grace she deserved… until I lose that grace again.
“How will youpensate the tavern for breaking their statue?” she asked from behind me.
1turned slowly.
She stood in a fresh dress, the moonlight catching in her hair.

She was beautiful, mine, no, yet not mine at all. And the moon goddess, she tied her fate to another as punishment. Just like she cursed me to not in my own agony.
“Everything in the room is mine,” I replied, voice low.
I stepped <b>toward </b>her, gently taking her hand, war–torn and calloused, not soft like arly’s should be but still beautiful Still
hers.
I pulled her gently toward me. My gaze locked to hers. Her cheeks flushed red and She lowered her eyes.
“Let’s hurry back” She said softly but instead, I muttered.
“I’ll kill the man who spilled wine on you,”
She looked at me, stunned..
“No,” she said quickly. “It wasn’t his fault. I ran into him and He already apologized.”
“By trying to touch your body?”
“She stared again. Wonder in her expression. But this time her jaw hardened.
“You won’t be killing anyone for my sake, Lycan.”
My heart skipped a beat.
She said it again. Lycan.
1 lowered my gaze, breath trapped in my chest. I said nothing.
I reined in my horse in front of the White Pack. She dismounted before I could help her.
She patted the horse’s mane, offering it a small smile. Then she looked up at <b>me </b>and <b>the smile </b>vanished.
She hadn’t spoken a word since we left the tavern. Not since I said I’d draw blood for her.
“<b>Good </b>night,” she said finally. Then she turned and walked into <b>the </b>Pack house without another <b>nce</b>.
I stayed there on my horse. Waiting. Watching
Then she appeared in the window, staring out. She is safe. I could feel it.
Only then did I turn the horse and ride back to the Lycan Kingdom.
At the royal stables, I dismounted, walking the familiar stone corridors to the ck Tower.“I was about to climb the spiral stairs to my chambers when I noticed the flickering candlelight in the dining hall
<b>Mairez </b>sat alone at the long table, tense and restless.
I paused.
She looked up and immediately rose to her feet.
“Where were you?” she asked, storming toward me. “Shouldn’t you leave word before disappearing? What if y family came for you while <b>you </b>were gone? What if
“I’m fine,” I said quietly.
She mmed a fist against my chest.
“You’re fine! Really? The full moon rises in two nights. <b>You </b><b>know </b><b>what </b>that <b>means</b><b>!</b>”

“Don’t She turned away, furious, and remmed to her seat. Her fingers were trembling
1 I sighed and joined her, taking her hand, but she wouldn’t meet my eyes and I didn’t me her. I understood her fear.
“I went to see her. 1 and
She turned her gare to me.
“Zephyrine?”
She searched my face, then asked slowly.
“You kissed her?”
I hesitated. Then looked away and exhaled.
“I couldn’t stop myself. It’s like apulsion.”
Which one of them wanted her<b>?</b>” she asked <b>again</b>.
I looked at her. She meant the two beasts that lived in me.
“Both”
“Lycannar…”
“I want her, Mairez, I confessed, my voice low. “Her body. Her breath. Her <b>soul</b>. Everything”
She went quiet, recognizing the darkness in my <b>gaze</b>. She had seen this before.
Then she gave my hand a small, knowing squeeze.
“Maybe it’s lust,” she said. “It’s been a long time since you’ve been with anyone.”
“It’s not that,” I murmured. “I didn’t feel <b>starved </b>for intimacy… not until I saw her.”
Mairez said nothing. She looked at me, searching for something in my face.
I could feel the pull again. Thepulsion. The ache and the memory of that drunk from the tavern came surging back.
I turned slowly toward the shadows at the edge of the hall, my voice low,
<b>“</b><b>Chantel</b>. There’s someone you <b>need </b>to assassinate.”
“Lycan!” Mairez snapped. “You can’t just kill anyone who looks at her
“He touched her. He disrespected her. He dies. I’ll face her wrathter.” My voice dropped. “Any man who touches her.. dies.”
