The Temptation of Sin And The Lycan Princess

Chapter 90

6. A Request

ROYCE.

It’s late into the night and we’ve been talking things out in Leo’s home office since I wanted out of the hospital, l’m feeling like an invalid. Plus, we needed somewhere extremely secure to talk and if my being alive is to be kept a secret, then the fewer people who see me, the better.

It’s not much of an issue as the Sangue pack is probably more private than the Shadow Wolves pack.

It was the first thing we had discussed and agreed on. No one else should know. The fewer people that know I’m alive, the better, and that includes the royals for now. That was Leo’s idea, but the man is intelligent, and I understand what he means too.

Jamie and Gideon are here too. I trust them just as I feel I can trust the Rossis. I may not have known them for long, but they’re genuine people and their love for Skyla is obvious.

We need to think everything out properly before we plan our next step.

Even Jamie and Gideon are shocked when I tell them about the entire Solaris prophecy, and Jamie is a little offended that I didn’t fill them in earlier. That revelation is a shock to them all, aside from Skyla and Dante.

I filled them in on pretty much everything regarding Dad and Aleric.

My only concern is Mom and Charlotte. I can’t have them think I’m dead and it’s what we’re discussing now.

“I know, but if they don’t mourn like you’re dead, Kenneth will fucking see right through them. He’s smart.” Leo says lighting another cigarette.

“That’s true, but I can’t put my mother through that.” I say, thinking of what she must be going through already.

“We are going to have to go back, anyway. What if I fill her in secretly?” Jamie suggests.

“No, not safe. You two will need to keep on the down low, especially since you are both closely associated with Royce.” Leo says.

“That’s understandable. Leave it to me. I’ll make sure she knows.” Dante adds.

I look up at him and nod. “Alright.” I don’t know how he’ll do it, but if he says he can, then I’m certain he will.

“I think that’s enough for today. We all need rest.” Azura says before turning to Leo. “Phoenix is awake too. Winona has her.”

My heart skips a beat at the name.

Winona…

She’s right here, so close…

Skyla caresses my chest from where she’s curled up beside me and looks up at me curiously.

I need to tell her about Winona… I glance at Leo. I know it’s late, but…

“Sure, Baby Girl. I think we all should head to bed. You staying Dante?” He asks his cousin,

“I should go, I’ll escort Jamie and Gideon to the borders.” He says running his fingers through his black curls.

Jamie nods.
