THE LYCAN QUEEN REVENGE-Chapter 12

The atmosphere showed me nothing but darkness and intense moments, could it be my imagination I thought while heading toward the light switch? No Ava you are tipsy, not blind.

I placed my hands on the light switch and turned them on slowly and then my sight caught a glimpse of him sitting there perfectly on my bed with a tray of different kinds of foods in his hands.

The way his eyes trailed my body from my neck to my toes made my body produce more adrenaline in some seconds.

Brian what are you doing here? I turned my hands covering my face almost immediately. Being the shy type really did tell me.

Just then, I felt a soft touch on my waist. The care, the comfort as he slowly turned me around till I was facing him.

He looked so charming. Those lips of his caused chaos in my head, not a single word left my mouth as he pulled me closer, his breath now lingering on my neck. "I want you Ava.’’

Leave my room Brian! I am your queen and this shouldn’t be happening, i said pointing my hands towards the doors of my room.

Are you sure that is what you want my queen? He said and felt a surge of joy run through my nerves as he pulled my body closer to his.

My body began to betray me even as my mind screamed to push him away. My heart and body wanted his touch so badly. I pressed my warm palms against his chest, with the intention to push his back.

But instead they lingered there, his heartbeat was so strong and unrelenting that they dropped beneath my fingertips.

"Brian..." My voice cracked, my body swaying toward him even as I tried to resist. We were both drunk on whiskey, and on a dangerous tension that we had been building for weeks.

His forehead touched mine, and for some moment, neither of us moved from our spots. The world seemed to narrow down to just his breath mingling with mine, his fingers brushing up my spine, the wild rhythm of our hearts colliding.

"This isn’t right," I whispered, but even as I said it, I leaned into him more.

My body was a traitor; it kept craving the warmth and the escape he offered. "It’s the only thing that feels right," he said, his voice raw.

And then his mouth was on mine. The kiss was fierce, hungry, a clash of longing and anger and desperate need.

I gasped against his lips, my hands curling into his shirt as his arms wrapped around me, pressing me close against him.

My head spun, but it wasn’t just the alcohol it was him, all him.

For a heartbeat, I tried to resist, to remember who I was: a queen, a leader, a woman who shouldn’t fall apart in the arms of the very man who could destroy her.

But when his lips moved to my neck, when his teeth grazed my skin and a broken moan escaped me, I knew I was lost.

Clothes fell away in a blur of frantic hands and breathless murmurs.

There was no thought, no strategy, no resistance, only heat and need and the way his touch made me feel alive when everything else was crumbling.

When he finally entered me, it wasn’t just passion, it was surrender to him, to us, to everything we had been fighting so hard to deny.

And as our bodies moved together, tangled and desperate, I realized with a jolt of terror and wonder that this wasn’t just lust.

It was something far more dangerous. Something that could destroy us both. I enjoyed every stroke from him until I was able to c@m.

I laid on the bed unable to move my body or clean myself up from the pleasure I just received, I curled up into his arms like a baby.

And in between laughter and pain I drifted off, without having Lucas or the death of my father on my mind in a long time.

***

I am here to take him from you, yes brian! And there is nothing you can do about it Ava. Just like I stole Lucas from you.

Brian would be an easy meat to swallow. I hate you, go away from my head I screamed while I stormed out of the bed.

It was a dream Ava I said breathing heavily while trying to calm myself down and there he was sleeping peacefully. My fears and echoes didn’t wake him up.

His hefty muscles laid on my body in a sexy manner, I wonder what he would be thinking of me now after letting my guard down and sleeping with him.

I can’t let my feelings bring me down again, I have to kill these feelings now.

She used Lucas to punish me. I won’t let her do the same with Brian, I just hope who I saw last night was a nightmare? I doubted myself while putting on my rob.

It’s not possible that she would be in my territory, I thought while passing the long hallway that was silent but my thoughts? They were nothing but chaos.

I needed to get away from Brian in order to clear my head and think about the dream properly.

The dining hall was my only refuge since I have no family anymore. It became a place where I could be alone and find some small comfort in a warm meal.

But as I stepped through the doors, my heart stopped beating, she was already there, Cynthia! She sat at the head of the dining table majestically.

Sipping my tea as if she owned the place, she looked up at me and smiled like a predator who had just found his prey.

My blood ran cold, the dream wasn’t just a nightmare at all, it was a twisted, terrifying reality. What are you doing here Cynthia? And who let you inside here?

I am not here for these questions, queen Ava she said mockingly, I am here to sign a deal with you. And what makes you think I would sign a deal with a gold digger and a husband snatcher?

Queen Ava? You don’t have a choice she mocked me again but this time it sounded more like a threat, I know how you have always wanted Lucas.

How you wished I never broke your marriage, I know that you haven’t moved on yet her gazed dawned on me that she’s about to cause a problem. I have decided to leave Lucas to you.

But it comes with a prize, a smirk bulged on her face, a prize I know you can pay. ’’Sign a check of 3 million dollars to my name’’

Then I will take my kids and leave the face of this earth, then you would have both Lucas and Brian to yourself. But if you don’t I would also give Brian a Child and you know what that means Ava? A devilish smirk appeared on her cheeks, you would lose Brian too.

You have some nerves showing up at my house talking about the same money that doesn’t belong to you. And what makes you think I still want Lucas?

Cynthia let me remind you, I am a queen and you are in my palace, I don’t go back and eat from my vomit so if you want any of them. Then you can have them.

Guards! Guards! I yelled anger boiling beneath my soul, took this filthy gold digger out of my land and made sure she wouldn’t return again.

You don’t have the courage to throw me out Ava, so sit down let’s discuss. Guards! I called out angrily trying to control my emotions.

You won’t dare to do such a thing to me and my children Cynthia screamed while the guards dragged her out, I will tell the whole village how infertile you are, that you can’t bring a child into existence.
