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 33
The evening air was crisp and cool as Darian walked along the cobblestone pathways, flanked by the grandiose estates of the noble city.
The shadows of the twilight danced around him, casting an eerie but oddly calming ambiance.
In stark contrast to this serene scene, Cassandra, his ever-talkative companion, continued to chatter incessantly.
She talks too much. It's annoying, he thought to himself as he kept pace with her. She prattled on about her exploits as a wrestler and a thief, her words washing over him like waves against a rugged coastline.
Darian could hardly bring himself to care about another woman and her daring escapades.
He forced a smile when he needed to, injecting an occasional nod or an insincere chuckle. Each step felt heavier as he treaded the cobblestones of the path, the weight of Cassandra's endless stories taking a toll on his patience.
