The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation by Luna Nova

Chapter 29 A DANGEROUS AGREEMENT VALERIA My brain finally connected with reality, and it toldI was lying on my side on a bed.

Not chained.

Not imprisoned.

Not bound.

And definitely very much alive.

I felt an incredible vitality surging inside me, healing, repairing my wounds.

Confused, I opened my eyes halfway, staring at an old wooden wall I know this wallpaper its from the inn where we were staying, in that ... pack where I was kidnapped and taken to those vampires who soldas a slave, and then... then the Lycan King rescued! Up to that point, everything had been terrifying, but manageable However, the memories of all the sexual things I did with King Aldric afterward... were impossible to bear ! Phrases like ... I need you to touchmore, Aldric ... and... I want to taste you like you did with mine ... short- circuited my mind.

Uuuuhhhh! I grabbed the pillow and screamed into it, burying my face full of sh.

Did the King leavehere at the inn? Most likely.

And honestly, for the best because I dont think I could ever face him again after what I did.

Are you done suffocating yourself with the pillow? His deep voice echoed behind me, and I froze.

This mans habit of silently lurking is going to givea heart attack one day.

Valeria, turn around and face me, he ordered.

I considered playing dead.

Dead from being a shameless slut .

What a fitting end for my disaster of a life.

In the end, I had to turn slowly, keeping my gaze down, cheeks burning there was no way to pretend I didnt.

remember.

Especially when my eyes landed directly on his crotch.

He was sitting in a chair beside the bed, legs spread, wearing dark trousers.

By the Goddess, I clearly remembered how that monstrous thing pulsed in my mouth, how hot and delicious it was Dont do that, Valeria.

Your scent is too tempting ... He leaned forward, and I lifted my eyes only to find his narrowed gray ones just inches from my face.

That masculine, sexy face so perfect had been buried between my legs, givingpleasure Id only dreamed of in the past Dorian had never lovedthat passionately.

I swallowed hard and jerked back, pressing myself against the wall, clutching the pillow protectively.

A DANGEROUS AGREEMENT As if I wasnt the one who had practically molested the King Hes the one who needs protection from me.

Thank you, Your Majesty, for searching forand rescuing me, I said, forcing my thoughts into order, speaking as steadily as I could.

I... I apologize.

Im deeply ashamed.

I understand if you wish forto leave the castle and never return NO.

His voice was sharp, cutting Look at me, Valeria.

Look at me.

Dont makerepeat myself.

His command mademeet his gaze, gripping the pillow tighter in my fists.

Youre not going anywhere.

You belong right here, with me.

What happened ... it wasnt your fault.

It was a forbidden sexual spell, used on slaves to keep them aroused for their masters.

His words shocked me.

That woman ...

Adeles sister... She put something insidea weird black creature, I remembered, shivering That wretched woman had done something cruel to me.

Shes dead now.

But she left a bewitched Aurum butterfly inside your body.

A female one.

Its still there.

Still? But....

in the forest... after what we did ... didnt it cure me? I feel fine now, I whispered, panicked.

It didnt cure you, Valeria.

It was only satisfied for now.

Until we find the male counterpart, it wont leave your body.

Aldric explained it so calmly, sitting there with his powerful arms crossed over his chest, while I ... I was on the verge of hyperventilating.

This meant I was cursed to turn into a desperate, needy woman every tthat damned whore butterfly craved sex Valeria, calm down.

Breathe.

Youre sweating.

Slow down Con, slower... He moved onto the bed, the wood creaking under his weight as he patted my back gently.

S Sir... Where can I find the cure? I ... I cant live like this forever! What do I do when I have another ... crisis ? Ive already sent a spy into the underworld to find the sorcerer holding the male counterpart, he replied.

And as for dealing with the next crisis... His voice dropped lower, turning husky.

I think we both know how we can handle that.

His tone was suggestive.

We were too close.

Sitting together on the narrow bed, my back pressed against the wall, his broad frtrappingin.

His hand slid to my bent legs, tracing slow, lazy circles along my skin.

He didnt say anything else just waited for me.

I finally lifted my gaze, examining his steel sharp eyes, searching for deception.

20 A DANGEROUS AGREEMENT But there was none.

Only raw, unmasked desire burning there.

Everything I experienced last night replayed in my mind the way my body had truly felt alive, desired, wanted.

Never, not once, had this man looked at my scars with disgust .

Why was it that when I was beautiful, the wolf I gave everything to had rejectedfor was broken and scarred now when the woman! But ... someone could actually want? I dont like sharing a bed with other women, I blurted out bluntly. My mind was spinning.

I wont, he answered without hesitation.

While this agreement lasts, I wont touch other women.

And neither will you touch other men.

Why was he doing this for a broken, ugly maid ? This time, I didnt avoid his gaze .

I searched for a trap, a lie.

But there was nothing.

He held my stare, raw, unguarded showingexactly what he wanted.

What did I have to lose by trying? To finally feel what it was like to bem wanted to have a passionate man claim my body, makefeel desired. Would people think I was just another one of King Aldrics temporary toys? I didnt care anymore.

When I had lived my life pretending to be perfect, it had broughtnothing but pain.

It would be just for a while.

Then we would go back to normal two adults, temporary lovers ... No consequences. Nothing to lose.

Fine.

I accept your terms, Your Majesty.

III... bother you whenever I ... need your help.

You can botheras often as you want.

Anytime.

Anywhere.

Ill never say no, he replied in that husky, dangerous whisper his eyes trailing toward my lips. The content e! is on novelenglish.net! A wild flutter spread through my chest, my belly tightening with heat.

It had to be the spells fault.

I thought I was just gambling on a few moments of reckless passion. But what I had truly wagered ... was my heart.
