The Lycan King's Long Lost Princess
The Lycan King’s Long Lost Princess Chapter 95

Genevieve’s POV

“Where are we?” Lanie asks.

“My home,” I said looking up at my past.

We all watch as Jaden pulls Vivian and another girl I haven’t seen to the castle in chains.

“Josephine!” Lanie cries.

“Remember ladies. If anything goes wrong tonight, John will make you both pay. What’s that girl’s name? The one John said you keep protecting? What was it? Oh, it’s right there on the tip of my tongue.” Jaden gives them a sly grin.

“Touch Abigail and I’ll make YOU pay.” The one Lanie called Josephine snapped.

Jaden stepped up and backhanded her so hard across the face that she hit the ground with a loud thud.

“Josephine!” Vivian cries. She grabs her, tangling them in the chains in the process.

“Go do what you came here for,” Jaden growled. He threw a key at Vivian and she unlocked the chains and pulled Josephine up and farther towards the castle. She flicks her hand and the guards all fall to the ground all at once.

We followed as they continued Into the castle Josephine closed her fist at the guards that spotted them and they fell to the floor like the others.

“We aren’t killing them here. We just wanted to get to the royal chambers and keep them down long enough for the job to be done.” Vivian said sadly.

“We were going to run away before this. But John caught us and took Abigail. Abigail was 13 and we protected her from John. She reminded us of Lanie. They would’ve killed her.” Vivian continues.

The sisters continue making their way through the castle, and spot two servants standing outside of my parents’ chambers.

“Are you ready?” One of them asks.

“Let’s get this over with,” Vivian said. They walked into the room and crept closer to my parents.

“We had already given them the potions. We were just making sure that if they fought it, we could still succeed. And sure enough, your parents woke up.”

I watch as my father jumps out of bed and growls. I see he’s trying to shift but he realized he couldn’t and went to attack one of the servants when Vivian held her hand up, holding him in place.

“No, Gerrick!” My mother screams at the top of her lungs and lunges herself at Vivian but Josephine catches her mid-air with her magic.

“I’m so sorry.” Vivian cries to my parents.

I turned around when the servants stepped up and held the knives to their throats. I tried to drown out the gurgling as they choke on their b***d, but I can’t. Wishing I could just help but I know it’s no use.

Vivian and Josephine run out of the room in tears, b***d spatter on their faces from being so close to my parents when they died.

“I will never forgive myself for this night. This was the first time we had been a part of taking someone’s life.” Vivian said to me.

I looked away and pulled us out of the memory.

“Get me the key to her cell,” I told Mathew. He looked at me like I was crazy

“Now!” I snapped. He turned away to retrieve the key from the guard. He comes back after a few seconds and hands it to me.

Vivian looks at me curiously as I put the key into the keyhole and turn it.

“What the h*ll are you doing, Gen?” Hunter boomed from the entrance of the dungeon.

“I’m releasing her,” I said without hesitation. He walked toward me and shook his head.

“I saw it, Hunter. They didn’t have a choice, they were going to kill one of the girls they had been protecting. They didn’t want to do it. I saw how they broke when they did.” I said. He searches my eyes for any lies but he knows I’m telling the truth.

“She’s not allowed to have her magic back. Not for a long time. Not until I trust her. And I don’t want her in the palace. Not now.” Hunter said and I nodded my head.

“I will have a house furnished for you in town. It’s a 5-minute walk from here so you won’t be far from Lanie.” I said to her. She looked at me completely surprised. At a loss of words.

“Josephine is pardoned as well. If you can find her she’s welcome to stay in town with you. Or she can have her own place. Just let me know.” I said and I smiled. I turned to leave with Hunter when I heard footsteps run toward me and I felt arms wrap around me.

“Thank you.” Vivian cried.

“Don’t thank me. Just live your life.” I said. I felt her nod her head and I continued out of the dungeon, not sparing anyone else a glance.

Finally, Hunter and I arrived back in his office where William and Dakota are sitting together holding the babies.

“When do I get to be an auntie?” I asked noticing how loving they both are toward the twins.

William looked at Dakota and she nodded.

“Hmm.. how does 4 months sound?” William asks with a smile.

“No way,” I said and Dakota looked at me with the biggest smile on her face.

“Found out this morning. But you can’t tell anyone yet! You’re the firsts to know.” She said.

“Oh, my goddess! Congratulations you guys!” I said jumping excitedly.

“I’m happy for the both of you,” Hunter said. He walked to Dakota and kissed the top of her head.

Right then the door slams open and Marks standing there panting.

“Are you good?” I asked.

“Sorry, I ran from town as soon as I got the call.”

“What call?” I was super confused.

“Anatoly. We have an audience with the King Viktor, but we’re not going there. He’s coming here.” He replied looking at Hunter.
