Hunting the Lycan King

Elena Petrov is a Rogue Hunter, tasked with hunting down the most vicious of the furry beasts and putting a bullet through their brain…or heart, whichever she could reach first. But when she finds herself in the grasps of the Vampire King, who gives her the offer to either serve him the Lycan King’s head in a silver platter or watch her sister be mercilessly drained of blood in front of her…she has no choice but to set out on the most difficult task of her life…hunting down the Lycan King, Vincent Blackburn. However, their first encounter doesn’t go as she had planned and she ends up in the dungeons, chained and ready to be executed by the Lycan King himself. However, as their eyes meet and a searing contact is forged in the unexpected circumstances, she hears him say the only words she never expected to hear from a Lycan: Mate.

Chapter 54: Hidden Agendas

Elena's P.O.V

 

The air in the dimly lit room hung heavy with a sense of anticipation, and my instincts were on high alert.

 

Rita stood before me, her eyes flickering with determination. She claimed to be here to help me escape Vincent's custody; she claimed that Lucien had sent her and that he was waiting for me out there. She claimed that she wasn't from my guild but another guild in a different town where Lucien had connections to.

 

I desperately wanted to believe her, to trust that she was my ticket to freedom, but an unsettling feeling gnawed at my gut, urging caution.

 

Something wasn't right. Something didn't add up. And this close to having my freedom within my grasp, I was starting to doubt the fact that this all seemed too easy…too good to be true.
