The Lycan King and His Dark Temptation by Luna Nova

Chapter 65 SECRET CLUES DARIUS ( VAMPIRE KINGS GENERAL ) The thas come, I tell my men, seated in the old crypt that serves as our refuge outside the borders of Silver Lake.

I dont dare get too close to that pack with the Lycan King prowling and more alert than ever.

However, the strategy of using the Alphias family has continued to work for me.

With sadjustments, there was always a useful pawn weak, defenseless one I could use as a spy and to manipulate the soft heart of that maiden.

Thane, prepare everything for the transfer spell.

We need to complete the operation quickly before the Lycan King can react.

Set the shadow portals for my men, I order the sorcerer traveling with us.

The most powerful vampires can conjure selemental magic, but for stronger spells, we need the help of a dark warlock.

Sir, that small body wont withstand much if I transfer more of your power into it, he warns .

I just need it to last long enough.

Youre not here to give suggestions transfer more comes.

Right now, its barely usable as a spy.

After all, he was already half dead when you cursed him, I reply without concern.

Why should I care about the life of that miserable fool ? of my power when the tI touch my chest where the small vial containing the powerful blood of the descendant of Juno rests.

I had to use a few more drops on the first Altar just to confirm it was a fake and reveal the coordinates leading to that greenhouse.

I have no idea how to find the true Altar without using her blood again.

A shiver runs over my skin just imagining what the King will do toif he finds out about the unnecessary waste of blood but I will make up for it.

Ill fix this the right way by bringing him the valuable woman from the prophecy.

What a surprise when I saw her again, this tat the Lycan Kings side.

I realized she wasnt just srandom woman, that I had been deceived before.

She was the one reading the information on the Altars and guiding Aldric Throne.

I tried paying those fools to kidnap her to avoid the risk, but the damn flea bitten wolves failed even at that.

They nearly caused her death and then had the audacity to askfor payment.

Ill handle this myself.

Everything is ready.

I will learn the clues from this Altar and take that woman to use her.

We must find the tomb of the ancient Queen, the descendant of Juno .

SECRET CLU VALERIA My gaze wandered across the forest surrounding the old dirt path as I pushed the wheelchair.

Edward, as usual, wasnt very talkative.

He was never a lively child, but today, he seemed even quieter than usual.

Is this the place? I asked when we reached a half ruined greenhouse in the middle of the woods.

Yes, its my secret place, his small voice answered.

Cinside, I have many interesting things to show you.

We moved along the overgrown path, wild plants creeping up the tall glass walls of the greenhouse.

Celine, do you sense anything strange ? Not yet, but this place gives off a disturbing aura.

Be careful Im following closely in secret.

I pushed open the rusted doors, which creaked as they swung apart, revealing a rectangular space.

In the center was a rough, earthen path, and on either side were what I assumed had once been beautiful gardens, now overrun with weeds and small stone statues In one corner sat a pond like fountain, its water murky and foul smelling, the stench rising from its depths.

Edward, this place feels too lonely and abandoned.

Why do you chere to play? I knelt beside him, wanting to understand where he was leading me.

Its because no one wants to play withsince Im defective.

At least here, I have friends! Look, III introduce you to them! His voice dropped with sadness, but then he perked up and pointed toward the small statues among the overgrown plants.

I decided to play along, following him as we examined each statue.

He had even given them names.

Moss covered the cracks on many of them swere missing heads or arms.

However, something caught my attention as I observed them more closely.

A statue of a woman holding a child was gazing in a specific direction.

When I followed her line of sight, she was looking toward another statue, a ard she wolf growling at a man dressed as a gardener. And so it continued, as if the statues were guidingtoward a particular place .

Following my instincts, I ventured deeper into the abandoned greenhouse.

At the back, there was a small, round structure with a domed roof.

It looked like it once served as a reading nook or a peaceful spot for afternoon tea.

Wait here for a moment, Edward.

left the boy in the corridor and climbed a short, worn staircase, entering the structure.

The place smelled of rust, age, dampness, and decaying leaves.

I scanned the room carefully for clues, the forest barely visible through the stained, dirty glass windows.

Finally, something suspicious caught my eye in a corner.

SECRET CLUES A small stone figurine of a woman clearly representing the Moon Goddess.

1 knew it because it was identical to the one from the fake Altar in the mountains.

Something isnt right, I murmured, approaching the 50 cm statue placed atop a pedestal and examining it closely.

Her hands pointed downward, yet in the Goddess Altar from the mountains, her hands were raised toward the sky.

Driven by curiosity to uncover the truth behind so many mysteries touched the cold stone hands and E tried to lift them upward.

They creaked and shifted! Astonished, I wondered what it could mean but but then anoise, followed by a trembling beneath my feet, madesnap back to reality. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
