The Lycan King’s Breeder

Chapter 50: Talon’s POV

The soft music in the hall suddenly started hitting differently and the hair at the back of my neck stood as I felt her presence.

Her scent filled my nose and my eyes remained fixed on the door. She was here.

Greg and his mate stepped in first. They were followed by Emily who as usual, wore casual clothes and her crown.

I didn’t even get angry, Avalyn’s scent in the air made everything seem normal. Since they made her comfortable, there was truly nothing wrong with it.

“What a disgrace!” I heard Willow scoff beside me and my heart squeezed.

Didn’t wise people say that when you loved someone, you accepted everything about them?

When would Willow accept my only sister?

I know Emily was a handful but she was only that way to people who tried to take control of her.

Emily was a free-spirited soul. She liked to fly around and make statements for herself and not have her way defined for her.

I hoped someday, the goddess would be able to decide for me just like Avalyn said. Maybe the universe would sort this too.

I couldn’t send my sister to a faraway college anymore. With Desmond threatening everything and everyone I held dear to me, I couldn’t send my sister to a faraway land.

My eyes returned to the entrance and I saw that Emily wasn’t alone. She was with Nathan and Ethan.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Why did you bring them?” Dawn asked her as they moved away from the door.

They were a good distance away from me but my sound receptors could perfectly pick out what they were saying.

“It’s my fucking party, Dawn. I invite whoever I want!” She bragged and the two boys ran to their parents.

“Where is Avalyn?” Dawn suddenly asked, checking behind her. She beckoned with her hands and a few minutes later, the brightest star I have ever seen came into the room.

The scent I had been searching for all night, finally stood there by the entrance.

Her dress was a long flowing red dress. It had tiny hands that held it to her body and a long slit along her right thigh. Her hair was pulled back into a perfect chignon, it was beautiful but I would have preferred it if they let it cascade down her bare back.

Nathan and Ethan left their parents and ran toward Avalyn. They hugged her tight and I wondered if they had met before.

Her beautiful face exploded into the most beautiful smile I have seen.

“They are so cute! Who are they?” Avalyn asked Dawn.

“My evil nephews. You think they are cute now, wait till they ruin everything!” Dawn hissed and I found myself smiling.

She was right though. The boys were a total package. They never stayed in one place for too long.

“What’s funny?” Willow asked beside me.

I turned to her and smiled. “Nathan and Ethan, aren’t they cute?”

Her face morphed into disgust and she flashed her eyes in their direction. “Why bring these things to a banquet? This is absolutely Wrong!” she hissed and the smile on my face faded away.

“They are not Willow,” I said emphasizing the words, “they are pups. Children. A blessing from the goddess herself!” I said through gritted teeth.

“You really think they are a blessing?” She picked up her wine glass and sipped from it. “You have to be a man to say this!” She scoffed.

My brows furrowed as I got hit by confusion.

“You think children are a blessing to their fathers but a curse to their mothers, how?”

I was shocked to even hear it from her lips.

“Once you carry one of them, you get bloated. You get fat and you lose shape forever. Some women even lose their hair, their voices… The list is horrific and never-ending…” She finished taking another sip of her wine.

I didn’t even know how to respond to her after her explanation. It made me wonder if she had ever wanted any of the children we lost…

My eyes returned to the entrance as I searched for Avalyn once more. The room was suddenly choking and I didn’t want to be there anymore.

I found her on Greg’s table. She and Dawn were talking about something when her eyes raised and met mine. She smiled at me and I nodded.

Then her eyes swerved away from mine and fluttered completely away like she had seen something that scared her.

Her beautiful dress was a complete tease.

The more I watched her, the more my cock grew in my pants and my desire got stronger. I didn’t even care that Willow was sitting a few inches away from me and she could very well see what I was doing.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, let’s welcome our Princess, who has been away for a couple of months but is back now,” the MC announced and everyone clapped.

Willow mumbled something but I didn’t pay her any attention as I also joined the applause.

Emily came to the spotlight and gave a bow. Her hair was pulled back and the color in it was taken out. She had only one piercing on her nose and nothing else.

She looked quite responsible despite the casual t-shirt she chose to wear.

“Thank you all for coming out here today. I umm…” Her eyes met mine and she smiled. “I am happy that I am here with everyone and I hope you all have fun!”

Another round of applause exploded as she made her way to my table, where she should sit.

“It’s nice that you didn’t curse for once…” I said as she sat down on her chair.

She raised her eyes to mine and rolled them. “It wouldn’t kill you to fucking congratulate me would it?” She scoffed.

And I smiled.

“An illiterate will always be one, no matter what,” Willow hissed and Emily dropped her fork.

“Excuse me, ragdoll, did you fucking say something to me?” She asked, dropping the fork she had just picked.

Willow wiped her lips and turned her icy blue eyes to Emily. “You sound stupid when you speak that way-”

“Willow!” I hissed out through gritted teeth.

Both of them were shocked at my reaction. Emily relaxed into her seat and folded her arms across her chest while Willow looked like she was about to cry.

“Talon, she curses all the time,” she whined trying to defend what she had just said.

“And that is what gives you the audacity to call my sister illiterate?” I growled.

Emily scoffed and pulled her chair backward.

“I much as it pleased me to fucking watch my brother defend me, I am sick of seeing your face. Let me go talk to someone that is actually beautiful,” Emily said, rolling her lips.

Willow turned red with anger and she wanted to retort but I held her back. “We have guests Willow!” I reminded her.

First, she had refused to be the host, hence why we had to get the services of an event master. Now, she was bent on insulting Emily.

My head was starting to ache and I needed to get out.

I moved my eyes to Avalyn’s table and I saw her smiling at something Dawn told her.

The way her skin glowed under the light was enchanting and alluring. I fell ten thousand times over her beauty.

Damn.

Who would have thought Talon, the Lycan King would fall for a simple human girl like this?

Without thinking, I got up.

“Where are you going?” Willow whispered harshly.

“I need to get some fresh air outside, you want to come?” I asked even though I wished at the back of my mind that she would refuse.

“It’s a cold night. I’ll rather stay in the warmth,” she replied, sipping her wine.

“Okay,” I replied and immediately moved through the crowds, toward Avalyn.

“My King,” They chorused.

I leaned to her right ear and whispered, “it’s choking in here. Come with me,” I said and offered her my hand.

She took it without hesitation.

From where we stood, I could feel Willow’s cold stare but I cared less. I needed to get fresh air and I wanted someone by my side.

I wanted Avalyn.

We got outside and the noise slowly became a fading background drop.

Her hands were soft and perfect in mine. It felt like we were meant for each other -despite how crazy it sounded.

“You look very beautiful tonight, Avalyn,” I whispered and her ears were red under the street lamps that lined the castle.

“Thank you,” she replied. Voice blended with the wind creating an amazing sound that made my toes curl.

We got the concrete chairs and I picked one.

“I hope the queen wouldn’t mind,” she mumbled, pulling her fingers.

I moved my hand to the back of her head where she tied up the chignon and I loosened it.

Her hair cascaded around her shoulders in waves that accentuated her beauty.

“I am the King, I don’t think I need anyone’s permission before seeing you, Avalyn,” I whispered to her.

She dropped her head to her fingers again. Her cheeks had turned beetroot red by now.

“Do you like it here?” I asked.

I wanted to make her even more comfortable in the castle than she was. She deserved it for being so selfless.

“Umm… Yeah-yes,” She stuttered. “I like it here a lot..”

I took her hands and kissed them. “If there is anything at all you may need, do not hesitate to tell me…”
