Traded To The Lycan King

“Hey baby,” Lauren says with a sly, seductive grin.

“What do you want?” I ask her, and she stops, sighing heavily as she places her hand on her waist.

“What? No, I’ve missed you. How was death?” She asks in a snarky tone.

I lick my lips in annoyance, looking over my shoulder at Melody, who is clearly confused.

“If you are a vampire, then you are still dead.” I remind her and she makes a face while nodding her head.

“Well, only partially a vampire.” She corrects me.

“Leave.” I grit out.

“Or what? You will kill me again? Sorry sweetheart, you don’t scare me anymore.” She shrugs. “I am here for Giselle.”

“Giselle is not here,” I scoff, and she chuckles, her laughter dark and lacking humor.

“I am here on her behalf,”

I look to the water, making sure my emotions are masked from Colette in order to keep her away and safe.

“Is she out there? Your water mate?” Lauren asks, following my eyes.

“That’s none of your damn business,” Melody scowls and Lauren rolls her eyes.

“Shut up, you oversized punching bag!” she clips out. “The royals are discussing things.”

I snort a laugh and shake my head.

“You aren’t a royal.”
