The Lycan King’s Breeder

Chapter 48: Avalyn’s POV

“Can you still hear them? What’s going on?” I asked Dawn over and over as we sat back and watched Talon and Emily’s every move.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“I can’t hear anymore. Emily is fisting her hands. They are mad at each other,” Dawn said with eyes focused on the siblings ahead of us.

Just then, we watched in horror as Talon raised his claws, and the direction of the weapon was aimed at Emily.

A small unconscious gasp escaped my lips as I grabbed Dawn by the arm.

“Are you sure they are siblings? They are going to kill each other!” I whispered to Dawn.

She was also watching with wide eyes now.

“Maybe I should call my brother…” Dawn started to say. She made to stand but I noticed Talon was walking away. He didn’t kill her.

“Stop, he is going away.”

Emily stood there by herself and again, we watched. She was obviously struggling to calm her anger.

“Shouldn’t you talk to her?” I whispered to Dawn. She was her best friend after all. She could console her or something.

“She will be fine.” Not long after Dawn said that, did Emily turn in her direction.

Her face was in a serious scowl as she walked back and dropped into the chair.

“What time is the fucking party again?” She asked and I looked to Dawn for an answer.

Dawn rolled her eyes and grabbed Emily by the locker. “You had better start spilling what you and the alpha talked about. You looked like you were about to kill each other!”

“If… Ummm… It will help you feel better…” I added hesitantly.

She let out a deep sigh and relaxed further into the seat. “I don’t know guys. But my brother is fucking stupid!”

Dawn looked at me and shrugged. “That’s between the two of you and he is our king, I would not allow you to disrespect him like that…”

A smirk appeared in her eyes. “What will you fucking do soldier?” She teased Dawn.

“You can’t fucking arrest me because I am a princess,” she said proudly and we broke into laughter.

“Now you accept your position?” Dawn glared with a smile dancing at the corners of her lips.

“Hard times call for fucking hard measures!” She declared jumping to her feet “come on guys let’s call the dressmakers. I need Ava to steal the night!”

I smiled at her words but shook my head, refusing it politely. “It is your party, Emily. Why should I steal the show?”

She came to where I sat and offered me her hand. “That fucking witch of a Luna, will try to steal it. I want you to steal it from her and besides, I am going to be fucking casual,” she smirked.

“She won’t be getting a fucking competition from me but from you.”

She pulled me off the chair and together we started walking back to my room.

“But can you do that?” I asked.

“What, being fucking casual?” She asked those boys.

“Yeah?” I replied.

She was a princess and it was her welcoming ball. Why would she dress casually for her own event?

Dawn scoffed and I looked over at her.

“Emily is the most rebellious wolf I have ever met. You will be shocked how she would pull off an old t-shirt and a pair of jeans.” Dawn explained. “And that’s not all, she will wear her fucking crown on it!”

“No way!” I exclaimed, laughing at Emily.

“Oh please, they want my presence they will fucking get it,” she laughed too.

We soon got to the room and Dawn left us to go get the dressmaker. Emily and I just stayed there on the bed taking slow breaths.

“Do you think I am being too fucking hard on him?” Emily asked in a low whisper.

I looked at her side and I saw that she was staring at the ceiling, deep in thought.

“I want to be a better sister to him. I want to fucking help him out when he needs me but Talon would rather die than go see our fucking’s father!” She hissed.

I didn’t know what to say because I have never even been in a situation like hers. I never rebelled even when my father and his wife treated me like a piece of trash.

I didn’t think of running or fighting back.

I always hoped that one day, they would see me for who I was and then ask for my forgiveness.

Even if that opportunity never came, until they got killed, I still believed that even in death, they were seeing the life I lived now and hopefully, they were sorry for the way they treated me.

“Have you tried speaking to him?” I asked her in the same soft tone she was using.

Emily let out an exaggerated breath and rested her hands on her stomach before she replied.

“Did you see how he fucking speaks to me?” She whispered. “He wanted to fucking cut me open!” She hissed.

I plopped myself up on my arm and grabbed her hands, which she had placed on her stomach.

“I think he was just angry, Emily.”

She raised her eyebrow and stared at me. “I will try. For your fucking sake…” She let out a smile on her face.

Just then, the door burst open and Dawn stepped in, followed by a short plump woman with bright brown eyes.

“I am back, who missed me?” Dawn called out. “This is Olga, ladies. She makes the best dresses in town.”

Olga bowed at us.

“Thank you, ma’am. I am glad you chose me to do this for you and the princess,” She said bowing again.

“You are also making one for her.” Dawn pointed at me and I narrowed her at. “I think you should start taking the measurements.” Dawn suggested and the woman got to work immediately.

She started with Dawn and then she did for me too. Emily was reluctant but soon agreed for Olga to do the same thing with her.

“Will the dresses be ready by tomorrow night?” I asked, looking at Dawn.

It seemed like an impossible task in my opinion. How could she finish three dresses in one night?

She let out a soft chuckle. “Do not worry ma’am everything will be ready!” She said and packed her things out of my room.

We remained in the room for the remainder of the day, talking about different things and topics.

The rest of the day went on in a blur and before you know it, everyone said their goodbyes and I was left alone in my room.

I thought about how far I have come and how much I have grown. It was amazing.

I made friends. Dawn and Emily, the two of them made my day, every time without realizing it.

I didn’t know how I would have survived this long without them.

Then there was Talon.

As I thought about him, my stomach did a little flip. I was fallen for him, there was no denying that now.

I took a deep sigh and relaxed into the bed, hoping to finally sleep. But my ears picked up the movements on my doorknob.

My heart stopped for a second, as I watched who would step in.

Then his tall frame appeared and I let out a deep sigh again. All my senses were alert and I felt my folds begin to drip.

“Did I wake you?” He asked in a voice that was so hoarse, my core tightened in reaction.

It took a few seconds for me to realize that I haven’t answered him.

I shook my head immediately and smiled. “No, I wasn’t sleeping,” I whispered.

“Oh,” He breathed. He walked closer to the bed and sat on it.

“Can I share the bed with you tonight?” He whispered and I sat up.

Why was he asking for permission to be here?

“Umm… Sure…” I quickly replied scooting aside to make some space for him despite the large bed.

He took off his shoes and got to bed with me. I could feel the energy from his body, tease the hair on my skin.

He shifted closer and sat by my side. My legs touched slightly, causing an electric wave to flood through my body.

“Do you mind if I just talk for a while before we sleep?” He asked staring at me.

His eyes were no longer dark. They looked grey and alluring… Yet I could see something else -pain.

He was hurt.

“Are you… Umm okay?” I whispered.

“I am not Avalyn…” He breathed. “My kingdom is being attacked and my family is making things harder for me…”

I nodded, even if I didn’t understand what he meant. I listened still.

“I have tried everything to make it work for both of them, but I keep failing…”

It was at this point that I realized he was referring to Emily and Willow.

“Why is it so hard for them to accept each other and just live under the same roof in peace and harmony? Why do I have to choose between them?”

I could hear the pain in his voice and my heart went out to him. Talon didn’t deserve this.

Emily shouldn’t put her brother through this and neither should the Queen.

“Umm… You shouldn’t be picking sides… That’s not fair…” I whispered out of the blue.

He went silent and courage I didn’t think I had, came through me.

“Whenever my father and his wife hurt me, I was always left with two options. I could run or I could stay… It was hard because I had nowhere to go but if I stayed I would keep getting hurt… Yet I stayed…”

“Because sometimes, choices don’t have to be made by us. The universe makes them…” I said.

He turned to face me squarely and I felt heat flood my cheeks as I was certain I had made a fool of myself but blurting nonsense.

“Umm… I am sorry -don’t pay me any attention…” I stuttered.

But his hands snaked behind my neck and he drew me closer. His lips touched mine and he smiled.

“Thank you Avalyn,” he said and hugged me.
