MY REWARD VALERIA Why not ? Are you afraid someone will find out youre a cheater ? Look at this serious maid here ; shell know exactly how to choose the most handsome one , wont you , darling? He threw his arm over my shoulders , and I froze completely Clearly , the darling was meant to sway me in his favor . I was about to pull away any way I could when- What the hell ?! S sir ? His voice trembled , and I wished I could melt into the floorboards . His arm was yanked roughly off my shoulders , and a pained groan escaped his lips , though he tried to mask it . Touch my maid so casually again , Dave , and Ill cut off your arm , Aldrics cold voice rang out from behind me , sending chills through my entire body . Y your maid ? By the Goddess , Ive completely lost my mind ! I didnt know , sir ! If I had , Id never have been so bold , Dave stammered . M maid- I mean , forgive Guardian Valeria wait , damn it ! Forgive me , I mean Guardian Dave … Pit , if you propose to your mate like that , shell kick your ass , Dave , came a muffled laugh from the shadows , followed by teasing chuckles at the poor young Lycan , who was starting to feel sorry for . I turned my head toward the voices , spotting three figures . It looked like Guardian Quinn , the woman who was always with him , and another black haired Lycan I didnt recognize , all laughing at Daves expense . It seemed Aldric had been sitting with them , which is why thadnt noticed him when I arrived . Your Majesty , pardon the interruption . I came to deliver this letter , I said , turning to face him and bowing respectfully as I pulled the missive from my pocket . I expected to see the ferocious wolfs usual furious expression , but to my surprise , he looked relaxed unlike Dave , whose sweat dripped down his temple . You never interrupt . Come , we could actually use a judge , Aldric said , catching me off guard . He stretched out his hand to take mine , pulling me toward the front row seats . See ? Even the King agrees that she should decide , I heard Maid Dave say to the bald Lycan . Youve just gotten us all in trouble , and well settle this later … the other grumbled . Now sit here and decide whos the strongest Lycan of all , Aldric said , making me sit down . He leaned in close , his face mere inches from mine . He was dressed in black , his muscular arms exposed , his reddish hair tied back in a half up , effortlessly sexy style . Remember very well who will bring you pleasure when the Aurum butterfly asks for a male to satisfy her , he whispered low into my ear , drawing out each word . A shiver fluttered through my belly . It was obvious who the winner would be . MY REWARD +25 BONUS The black haired one slapped his rear , teasing that it was s fault the King had beaten them all . It was so amusing to see them like this , so relaxed , that I realized some rumors might not be entirely true . They were rough and lethal men , yes , but they were also flesh and blood , with unique lives and personalities . They loved , hated , dreamed , and had goals . They werent always out killing anyone in their path . The most intimidating presence of all stepped in front of me , blocking the lamps light with his broad figure . He leaned over the seat , resting both hands on the armrests trapping me as he invaded all of my personal space . I had to tilt my head up to meet his gaze . Ive won , Valeria . What are you going to give me as my reward ? Reward ? Damn it , I forgot about the reward ! I parted my lips slightly to answer , but instead , I received a delicious kiss from my boss , the Lycan King . Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
