A Luna for the Lycan King

Lyle was completely on board with my brilliant plan and everything was ready. Now it was time to invite the guest of honor.

"Cleo." I smiled as I waved her down. I could see her eye twitch, but she plastered on her disgustingly sweet smile and walked

over to me.

"How are you feeling?" she asked.

"Much better now. And after the few days I spent attached to my mate, possibly expecting a pup." I noticed her eyes widen as she smiled. Her smile now almost looked like a snarl as she struggled with herself.

"Well, isn't that lovely?"

"Yes, we are both excited. But you know how you offered to help me before with lessons? I would love it if you could help me today." I noticed she almost seemed to be gritting her teeth.

"No escort today?" she asked, glancing behind me.

"I had to ditch him, so we have to hurry. I was hoping you could show me the prison. I know there is a role where the queen is supposed to pardon and read them their last rites. I was hoping you could show me this process."

"I thought you blamed me for what happened? Although, you can hardly blame me for you going into heat."

before I am caught."

"We can take the servant's stairs. They're more discreet."

I followed behind her and could see the wheels turning in her head. I know she was trying to hurry and come up with something else. She had no idea what I had planned for her. I could hear someone coming up the stairs as we descended. I noticed a shocked servant, who quickly stepped to the side.

"Sneaking food again?" Cleo clicked her tongue. "You've been warned about this before."

I noticed the young man looked noticeably scared. He was avoiding eye contact and fidgeting with his hands.

"Sneaking food?" I asked, not quite understanding.

"Yes, he sneaks food to some of the prisoners. The first time he was given a warning, but I suspected that he hadn't stopped."

"Well, it's only food. I don't think there is any harm in that."

"Breaking the rules is breaking the rules. That is something you need to learn. The law works because it is respected. As the queen, it is your duty to uphold the rules."

"Luckily, I am not the queen today, and in that position, I'm sure I can change rules that aren't necessary." I stepped down a couple of steps toward the young man. "It's okay. You won't be punished. Who are you giving food to?"

"M-m-my brother." He looked up at me with watery eyes that broke my heart. This wasn't a young man but an older boy.

Chapter 38 years old?

"He stole and-" Cleo began but the boy shook his head.

"N-n-no, he didn't. But he wasn't in his cell, and I-

"I understand.” I gave him a reassuring smile. “I'll look into this." I then nodded for him to continue up the stairs. The truth was, I already had a hunch about the prisoner he was talking about. Especially since he mentioned he wasn't there. If it was the same prisoner, I already had him moved.

"You shouldn't promise things like that," Cleo said coldly as she continued to walk down the stairs.

"He was just a boy and he looked scared. I think it's our job to be considerate of their emotions. Sneaking food doesn't seem like a horrible crime." I could see her jaw clench, but she didn't speak.

We finally arrived at the bottom and she opened the door. As soon as she did, she let out a squeal as she was grabbed. I quickly stepped through and shut the door.

"What do you think you are doing?!" she hissed, looking up at Lyle.

"Just following orders." Lyle grinned as he looked up at me. I didn't hesitate as I plunged the needle in her thigh and squeezed the contents inside her body.

"What are you doing to me?! You can't touch me. I am a Waiting Lady." "Actually, I can. You have interfered with my mate and my Chapter 38

me the whole time, and we didn't do a thing to you." I watched her eyes widen as I relaxed on my heels. "You drank the stuff?" I looked up at Lyle, who nodded his head.

"Did you poison me?" she asked in a shaky voice.

"Of course not. I was just thinking ... you did a kindness for me, and I make sure I always pay back my debts." I saw her double over as it already started. Injections were almost immediate.

"You forced me into heat. You're going to throw me in one of the prison cells?!" she shrieked. Yes, I was loving this and I couldn't contain my giggling. Lyle had taken a potion so he was not affected by her going into heat.

"Unlike you, I will not throw you to a bunch of random men. However, I did discover something interesting while reading the Waiting Lady diaries. You have a mate, and you had him thrown in the prisons. You said he stole your necklace when he was caught in your room. But that wasn't true ... someone wanted a taste of her mate but didn't want to keep him, since you wanted the throne. Well, I have great news for you. The king has a mate, and that is me. We have marked each other and have spent three days knotted together. You are now free to be with your mate. And we have even set up a special room for the two of you. You are released as a Waiting Lady and are free to be with your mate. And of course, since you are in heat, you will end up knotted and likely pregnant. Congratulations! Don't worry. Your mate will be released from prison after this and forgiven for the crime he never committed. And the two of you can live together." "You are going to have me raped and pregnant so that—" Chapter 38

evidence of you visiting your mate in the cells here. And we have spoken to him. You keep him here for his own protection and visit him to be held. You have not kept yourself for the king. But don't worry, you won't get in trouble now that the king has dismissed all Waiting Ladies."

I smiled as we made it to the private prison room, opening the door. Winifred stood there holding a large golden key.

"Winnie, you have to stop them!" Cleo pleaded as her instincts began to take over. She backed her butt up and I could see her rubbing it over where Lyle's dick would be. I noticed he grimaced, holding her farther away from his body.

...

"They are reuniting you with your mate. This is a good thing, Cleo. I am so happy you can finally be with your mate. You know someone messed with my son and daughter-in-law. A family feud was almost provoked because of it. I would tear a person like that apart if it was up to me." Her voice was cold as she unlocked the door.

Lyle immediately shoved her inside, into the arms of her mate who was waiting.

"You said you still wanted your mate, so here she is. Your refrigerator is well stocked, and someone will be back in a week to free you both. A house is being prepared for the two of you and any future children that may come along." Lyle grabbed the door as I watched the man lead Cleo.to the bed. She was already lifting her dress up, wanting relief from the pain. She didn't hold out at all. This was something she wanted. She just wanted the crown too. Lyle closed the door and locked it.

"She didn't last long," Lyle snorted with an eye roll. "You were

Chapter 38 ready to fight."

"That is because I only wanted to be with Darren. Even if you're in heat, you can still fight it if you don't want it. I was watching there to see how she reacted. It was clear what she really wanted. She is a crown chaser and was willing to do anything for the crown. Including hiding the fact she kept her mate in secret." I turned and looked at Winifred.

"Thank you for involving me in this. Now there is nothing that can be said implicating you. It is our word against hers. I'm sorry for what Cleo did. She could have destroyed our family." Winifred pursed her trembling lips together. She was right. If Lyle ended up mating with me, Darren might have killed him in a rage. Things really could have turned out horribly.

Honestly, what I did to Cleo was kind in comparison. But it was clever. With a mate, she could no longer live in the castle. She would most likely end up pregnant, and she could no longer entertain the idea of being with Darren. It was over now. No matter what, it was over for Cleo.

"Do we tell Darren now?" Lyle grinned.noveldrama
