The Lycan King’s Breeder

Chapter 36: Talon’s POV

My wolf perked up and started flipping and I knew who had stepped into the banquet hall before I even picked up her scent.

My eyes finally zeroed in on her as she walked to the table with Sara by her side.

The dress she wore was a terrible choice. It hugged her in the right places, leaving nothing to the imagination. Her cleavage peaked at the top of the chest and all I wanted to do was tear that slit open and fuck her till she forgot her name.

My cork throbbed painfully in my pants as I watched her get closer to the table. From the corners of my eyes, I could see Monty getting up and before I could stop myself, I got up and moved toward them.

“My king,” Sara said with a bow and Avalyn whispered the same with her head lowered.

I stretched out my hand to her and her beautiful green eyes flashed up at me as if the action was wrong.

Heck, it was wrong, but at that moment, I didn’t give a fuck what people thought. Avalyn was mine and the whole Kingdom could see it or pluck out their eyes.

She placed her warm hands hesitantly over mine and I squeezed them in satisfaction.

My shoulders stood taller as I returned to the table with Avalyn by my side like a priceless trophy.

There was always an empty seat on my right, where my heir is supposed to sit and I placed Avalyn there. I could feel the shocked eyes on me but I cared less.

She sat down and our joined hands settled beneath the table, away from all prying eyes.

I smirked as I saw the disappointment on Monty’s face. The fool had deliberately saved a seat for her just like he promised earlier but I ruined his plans.

“Ladies and gentlemen, let’s continue dining!” Willow announced by my side with a bright smile on her face and everyone resumed eating and chattering as if nothing happened.

Greg was also at the table with his wife and Sara sat beside them. On the opposite end of the table were Trevor and his son -who couldn’t take his eyes off Avalyn as he stabbed through his food.

“My queen,” he suddenly said, causing the entire table to turn their attention to me. “With your permission, can Avalyn come sit by my side, you promised to let her spend some time with me in this banquet -except if she will grace my bedroom with her beauty as well,” he spat out and my muscles clenched.

I could feel Avalyn’s hand grow wet in mine and I didn’t have to look at her to know how uncomfortable she was.

“You were told she was a maid and not a whore. Mind your language, Monty!” I growled and I would have said more but for Willow’s grip on my thigh.

“My King, let me handle our guest,” Willow said, flashing me a polite smile.

My wolf wanted to completely ignore her and just jump on the boy but my eyes fell on Greg and I saw as he shook his head, signaling to me to relax.

Reluctantly, I let Willow handle the boy. If his father didn’t put a leash on him, I was really going to have his head before the night ended.

Willow picked up her wine glass and sipped on it before replying. “As our dear King said, she is a maid and not a whore. And yes, your request is granted.” She turned her head to Avalyn and my heart clutched.

There was no way I could refuse this and people would not suspect Avalyn’s position in the castle.

“Avalyn, please move over to Montgomery’s side,” Willow whispered.

Avalyn looked close to tears as she looked at Sara who nodded at her and then slowly she moved her head to mine.

I turned away before our eyes could meet. If I saw the emotions in her eyes, I wouldn’t be able to stop myself from keeping her by my side.

I reluctantly pulled my hand away from her and looked straight ahead pretending not to watch from the corners of my eyes as she got up from the chair and moved to the other side of the table where Monty stood waiting for her.

He pulled the seat he had kept for her and Avalyn sat down gently.

“Beautiful,” He whispered with a large smirk on his face.

Avalyn whispered a soft thank you and I felt my heart tear open. Why did she feel the need to appreciate his stupid compliment?

“Father, don’t you think Avalyn is too well-mannered to be a maid?” Monty asked, turning to look at his father.

Trevor nodded and released one of those manly chuckles of his. “I was thinking the very same thing.” Then he turned to Avalyn. “Where are you from, child?”

My anger was brewing from deep within me and I hated every second she spent on the other side of the table. To avoid roaring, I picked up my wine glass and gulped down the content.

Willow looked at me but I refused to stare back at her.

“The… Ummm a nearby town, my Lord,” She replied.

Monty picked up a plate and dished out food for Avalyn and then placed it in front of her. “That is amazing. You must have a family then, I really like you, you see,” he said as he passed her the fork in his hand.

Avalyn’s cheeks turned pink as she accepted the fork from him and dropped her head to the food.

“Father, can I keep her?” Monty asked and my eyes turned into slits. If someone didn’t stop him, I was going to kill him.

Damn the war and Damn the whole fucking kingdom!

“I am sorry, sir Montgomery but Avalyn is an orphan who we saved from the recent attacks. The King and Queen decided to keep her in hopes that her family will one day show up…” Greg put in, easing the tension immediately.

But Monty didn’t want to give up.

“Avalyn, don’t you want to explore the world? It must be so boring staying in this castle all day long,” he said and my hands folded into tight fists as I counted the second in my head.

“I want to…” Her soft voice broke out and my eyes snapped at her.

What?

“I always dream of visiting other places. I want to-” our eyes met and she swallowed the words she was about to spill. “Umm… Maybe one day, after my parents find me, I will visit the world,” she put in and dropped her head.

“Hmm, interesting. Tell me about your love life. Have you found a mate yet?” Monty asked again.

Someone needed to place glue on the boy’s lips or he was going to lose it completely.

“I- I haven’t,” she said and for some reason, my wolf felt stabbed in the back.

I was almost tempted to growl the words in front of everyone but I controlled myself. I bit down my tongue and hoped Monty would drop the interview now.

“Great. That’s perfect. This means you are a virgin, aren’t you?” He asked and Avalyn started coughing.

Sara was the first to get to her feet before I could make it.

“Excuse us for a moment,” she said as she helped the red-faced Avalyn out of her chair.

I signaled to Greg to come closer and as he did, I whispered in his ear, “tell Sara to take her back to her room.”

Greg nodded and returned to his seat. He whispered something to his mate and she smiled.

“The music has started, we’ll be joining the dance floor. Please excuse us,” Greg said and bowed before leading Cassie to the dance floor.

From where I sat, I could make out Avalyn and Sara at the corner. I watched till I saw Greg move towards them, then my heart became at ease because I knew that she would be safe now.

“It’s a pity Avalyn isn’t here. I could have danced with her,” Monty grumbled as his eyes searched the now crowded dance floor.

The night had already ended in my mind and I was only waiting for the guests to start retiring before I made my way to Avalyn’s room -and the goddess wasn’t far from my heart.

Trevor got up after a few minutes and bowed to me and Willow. “Tonight was really fun. I am afraid I must retire to bed now,” he said and I nodded at him.

“Thank you for your time, Alpha Trevor,” Willow replied as the wonderful host she had always been.

Immediately he turned, I got off my chair and started heading in the opposite direction. I didn’t even bother telling Willow because at that moment, my wolf was only connected to one person and that was Avalyn.

I marched down to her chamber with a burning desire and untamed anger which I couldn’t comprehend.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

I pulled the door open and she jumped from the window with her hands on her chest.

A soft gasp left her lips as her eyes locked with mine. My cock twitched harder as her innocence and beauty washed over me.

I moved towards her and grabbed her by the waist. “Why did you choose this dress?” I hissed as my lips pulled closer to her parted ones.

“I… Umm-I was-”

I tightened my hold on her waist and pulled her even closer. “You are mine, Avalyn! No one else has the right to make you blush!” I growled as my lips claimed hers in a heated kiss.
