Absent Luna of the Lycan King Novel (Ivy & Kyson)

Kyson POV Clarice lied to me; she knew where lvy was, but she did not check in like she was supposed to, which infuriated me. “Where is she?” I snapped at her, and she took a step back from me. “Outside helping Peter,” Clarice told me. “I will deal with you when I get back,”…

Kyson POV Ivy kept trying to help, but I would just tuck her closer until, eventually, she gave up. Instead, she pressed against my chest, listening to my calling for her and only moving when I would move to the next. No one left until the last grave was cleaned. Only then did lvy let…

Ivy POV It was early in the morning when I slipped out without the King waking; I had shut off his alarm when I woke before deciding to help Clarice in the kitchens; I looked over at Peter, the stable hand boy, as he came in. He stopped by the counter and leaned on it….

As I struggled to catch my breath, my breathing was harsh and raspy when I saw the guards running in our direction down the steep hill leading from the castle. “I’m going to turn you around. Don’t push down on me,” Kyson growled, and I could feel the movement of his legs behind me as…

“I won’t touch you then, okay, but I am staying. You’re not shifting on your own,” I tell her, fighting the urge to stifle her worry by using the bond and calling. She looks away from me. “I said get out,” she whispered before wiping a stray tear. My heart pinched at her defeat and…
