The Lycan King and his Dark Temptation (Valeria) novel Chapter 401

ELLIOT

"Are you happy now?" I asked my wolf while burying my nose in Kath’s hair.

Now that my animal side was fully awake, I felt an almost obsessive attraction to her.

The scent of lavender grew more intense—I wanted it to belong only to me, for her body to always carry my essence, for other males to know that this beautiful woman was mine alone.

A rather foolish thought, considering that elementals couldn’t even smell scent markings.

"Not happy enough. I want to come out and be with her, hold her. It's getting cold, my fur is warm—let’s switch."

"No," I answered without hesitation, already feeling the push in my mind—firm and dominant, forcing me to give up control.

"Do you think I can’t see through your tricks? You just want to be the main character. Let me remind you that in this realm, no one can discover us, or we could die."

"Let them try. Now that I’m awake, no being will separate me from my mate," he growled through gritted teeth, and that warning was meant for me too.

Damn it, this was like a never-ending battle with him.

"Vorath…"

"I got it already! Don’t give me the same endless lecture. But there’s no one here, not a soul, just us. And yes, I want to be with her in my beast form, but I also worry about the cold."

I huffed in frustration and sat up slightly, running my hand along Kath’s arm.

The fireplace still crackled, consuming the wood and casting its warmth, but the swamp’s nights were always too damp and cold.

The little firewood I found wouldn’t be enough.

"First, we’re going to check on Lavinia," was my only response to that insufferable wolf.

I slowly pulled my arm from beneath Kath’s head and sat up, listening to the soft puffs of air escaping her delicious lips.

I took the moment to check her wounds, scanning her nearly naked body.

Vorath had given her more blood during the exchange of our vows.

I caressed her long hair, her smooth skin, and between her legs, the traces of our burning desire still lingered.

"Maybe she’s already pregnant with our pups. It’s too soon to tell. If not, I’ll breed her in my next heat cycle," he started making his lustful plans while we left her resting to check on Lavinia.

I picked up the small key resting in a corner of the carpet.

"Your heat cycle… in your beast form?" I asked, slightly worried.

I remembered very well the uncontrollable lust—and that had been with Brenda, with my wolf imprisoned.

"Of course, in lycan form. Are you an idiot? You think it’ll be in elemental form?" he scoffed sarcastically.
