Fated Bonds; The Lycan Chosen Queen
“I can only be the villain for you. Never to you” “I don't care…because I would do the same” Althea said with a slight smirk on her lips. *** All her life, Althea wanted a simple life. She had the love of her life and she would have his kids. But everything changed when he broke her heart. The King of Elodonia is now looking for a mate. One to be his queen and wife. Althea prays she would not be chosen but unfortunately fate wasn't on her side. But who said the king was looking for a queen? No, he was looking for his next plaything and he may have found his victim in the heart of a young woman. Life wasn't a bed of roses, so don't expect fluffiness in the castle.
Chapter 21
"What-what… how could you?" Althea's trembling hand struck Darian's shoulder, her fingers quivering with a mix of anger and desperation. "How could you? You said…" A single tear trickled down her cheek as her voice wavered.
Darian, unyielding and unmoved, met her tearful gaze. "How could I what?" His voice was a chilling whisper, devoid of any compassion.
Althea's sobs threatened to overtake her words. "You promised,King Darian." She took a shaky breath and pleaded, "You promised that you wouldn't erase their memories."
In that moment, the enormity of her despair washed over her. It felt as though the walls of the extravagant bridal chamber were closing in. She knew the consequences of Darian's decision, how it could reduce her fellow brides to empty shells. Her heart ached for them, and she couldn't comprehend how Darian, the man she had danced with, had shared moments with, could be so merciless.
