The Lycan Prince’s Wolfless Slave (Academy Romance) novel Chapter 135

Chapter 135

“What condition?” Kara asks.

I turn my gaze to Lyra, a satisfied smile spreading on my face.

“Only if she’s coming with me, and stays beside me at all times. Not a step away. Do you understand, little fox?”

Lyra glares at me, her eyes flashing with that fierce spirit I’ve come to crave. She doesn’t like the command, and she definitely doesn’t like me acting like her keeper in front of Kara.

The anger in her eyes only makes the excitement in my blood burn hotter.

“Well, okay!” Kara squeals happily.

Few hours later.

Lyra

As the car pulls up to the royal Lycan palace, a knot of terror forms in my stomach. I’ve spent my life hearing stories about this place, but nothing prepared me for how it looks in real life. It’s overwhelming. Everywhere I look, the world is golden, royal, and perfect. The white stone of the walls glimmers under the moonlight, and the architecture is so grand it makes me feel like an ant.

My father and Luna Sarah used to talk about the palace as if it were a piece of heaven. As the Alpha and Luna of the Valeria pack, they were the only ones ever allowed to visit for official business. I remember sitting back home, listening to them describe the beauty of the castle. I never thought a slave like me would actually step foot here as a guest.

‘Don’t get excited, Lyra,’ Wyndra’s warns. ‘You are in more danger here than you were on that mountain. Have you forgotten what you are? If the King finds out, there’s no telling what he’ll do.’

“I know,” I reply in my mind, trying to steady my breathing. “I’ll be careful. I won’t do anything to draw attention. I just want to get through this dinner.”

‘I don’t have a good feeling about this,’ she mutters. The air here smells sinister.’

“Don’t worry, wyn. No one will find out.”

The car comes to a stop in the main courtyard. I step out, my legs feeling a bit like jelly. Princess Kara follows, looking absolutely stunning. She’s wearing a black, floor-length gown that hugs her frame, and her dark hair is styled in elegant waves. She looks like the royalty she is.

Then Prince Kai steps out,

My throat goes dry. He looks ridiculously handsome, it’s almost unfair. He’s wearing a dark blue tux with no tie, leaving the top button open, which gives him a dangerous edge. His dark hair is shaved close on the sides and fuller in the middle, looking so soft and thick that I have to fight the urge to reach out and brush my fingers through it.

Why does he have to look like that?

When Kai told me I had to come with him and stay by his side, I was furious. I thought he just wanted to lord his power over me or find new ways to humiliate me in front of the royals. But so far, he’s been a gentleman. The drive was quiet, save for Kata telling me not to worry. The only tension came from the way Kai looked at me. like he wanted to suck out my soul.

Kai smirks. It’s a dark, knowing expression. “You look sinfully stunning, little fox.”

The way he says it makes my whole body vibrate with a heat I can’t explain. I feel it pooling between my legs, making me feel flustered and heavy.
