The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation

---- Iwas surprised to see Gabrielle fully recovered, but then I realized it was just an illusionshe only looked that way inside the castle, which was a shame.

Still, it was obvious that Zarek and I weren't the only ones eager to retire for the nightmy brother was practically devouring his mate with his eyes.

Iwas also surprised to see flesh-and-blood servants.

Honestly, I thought they would be the spirits Zarek controls, but it seems the kitchen staff and others had remained hidden in their quarters behind the castle.

Though fearful, they adapted to the new situation and the orders of the castle's rightful owner.

"Well, as we discussed, Prince, our people are resting on the castle grounds.

They didnt want to come inside, but tomorrow King Aldric will arrive, and we ll all talk," Quinn said, holding Gabrielle by the waist, standing in front of us.

"T understand.

Gabrielle knows everything about managing the castle; she can do whatever she wants with the wing that belongs to her," Zarek replied, tightening his grip on my waist.

It was obvious he was subtly ushering them to the other side of the palace.

Quinn shot him a threatening look, then glanced at me and at the possessive hand resting on my body.

---- He hissed against my lips, his hand sliding down to grope my ass, and his larger frame pushed me back, pinning me against the wall.

His other hand gripped my neck firmly.

"Celine, I'm going to fucking take you tonight, and I'm a horny vampire who's been craving his mate for centuries.

There's nothing more dangerous than that, baby, so don't tempt me and get your ass downstairs for dinner, or I'll lift your dress right here in the hallway and fuck your sweet pussy." Talmost combusted on the spot! Why did I have this insane urge to defy him? "You decide.

I only need a 'yes' from your lipsor better yet, just a wink will do." "Zarek, you can't be serious...

Mmm...

no, wait..." I grabbed his hair when he lowered his head to bury it between my breasts, inhaling my skin lasciviously.noveldrama

"Let's go to dinner, come on!" I started pushing him frantically, looking around with what I imagined was a tomato-red face, while his deep chuckle rumbled in his chest and those sexy lips mocked my predicament.

"Remember, door open or I'll come in through your window," he whispered playfully before stepping into the dining hall, and I just huffed.

What lock in this castle couldn't he open? But I knew that if I closed it, he would never force his way in.

sek Dinner was somewhat strange, but not as awkward as I had imagined.
