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 60
Darian's proclamation hung in the air, the weight of his decision casting a shadow over the room. Ladia, who had been observing silently, spoke up, her voice edged with curiosity and a hint of defiance.
"What do you mean, Your Majesty? The mating ceremony was meant to solidify the union between you and Lady Althea. Are you certain about this decision?"
Darian's gaze was unwavering as he responded, "I am certain. The circumstances have changed, and priorities must shift accordingly."
Cassandra, standing by Darian's side, observed the exchange with a subtle intensity. Valentine, ever loyal, awaited further instructions.
Ladia, however, wasn't one to easily accept change. "Your Majesty, the dark fae won't take kindly to such a reversal. The consequences could be severe."
Darian's expression remained stoic. "I am aware of the potential consequences. The dark fae can adapt to change, and so must we. Althea's safety is my priority."
