The Lycan King

Avalyn

My eyes teared further. We were winning and now I put everyone in the position to lose everything. I should have been more alert! I should have been paying more attention to my surroundings! What was I thinking?

"Rogue." Emilio hissed. "You planned this whole thing?" And then he shifted to glare at Max. "And you devious motherfucker. I must admit, I'm impressed."

"Thanks." Max gave him a wide grin.

"You will let me and my pack members go alive to my pack or else I will shoot this bitch right now." He pressed the nozzle of the gun harder.

'Ava, use your powers and throw him a couple of feet away from you. I will save you I promise.'?Nik mind- linked me.

I closed my eyes and imagined me flicking him away a couple of feet but it didn't work.

"Don't even think about using your magic you witch," he hissed in my ear. "You may snap my neck or throw me off but I still have a gun in my hand. It will not take me more than a split second to finish you. Which I should have done when I decided I was done with you."

Nikolai growled. Loud enough for the land to vibrate.

"Release her and fight with me. If you are a true Alpha like you claim you are, fight me one on one?? a duel to death." Nikolai challenged.

"Why would I do that when I have your precious slave in my arms?" His manhood pressed against my butt and then he grind himself against me.

A tear slipped down my cheek. He always found a way to make me feel dirty.

I can't let him take me away again. I won't survive it. I just won't. Not after Nik, not after having a taste of how beautiful a free live can be, how amazing living with family can be.

I would rather die than go through that again. I got why Viktoria did what she did now. She wasn't a coward. She was a very strong woman, one who was strong enough to not fear death. She was strong enough to kill herself and life a free life in heaven.

I tried using my powers again but to no avail. The one time that I truly need it and I can't even use them properly. First to light those people on fire and now.

"Fine. Just don't touch her." Nikolai gritted, his eyes black.

"No can do." And then he grabbed my breast and squeezed.

A sob rose my throat but I pressed my lips further, having no intention to show any more weaknesses. "You will escort us all out of your pack, alive. If I had known that this slut has magical powers, I would have never let her go." And then he I felt his extended canine touch my neck.

I didn't dare move.

'Avalyn. Remember that day in the backyard when I climbed up that tree and pushed April off and you change places with her? Just like that, I want you to change places with me. Please concentrate, Love.' Nik said gently but outwardly, his face remained stone cold. There is a good chance that Emilio might actually shoot. Nik was ready to give up his life for mine.

"But??" I didn't want Nik to die.

"Do as I say Avalyn." He knew exactly what I was worrying about. And I was ashamed that I didn't have the courage to fight against it. I just needed to get away from Emilio.

I closed my eyes and concentrated. Just as Nik said. But then I couldn't truly concentrate when all I could think about was Emilio's hand on my body. The man I despised and feared the most was holding me captive. Again.

'Concentrate harder, Avalyn.'?Nikolai gritted.

"Fine." I heard Nikolai say as I concentrated harder. "But we will keep your men as slaves."

"You are in no position to order me but since I'm a generous man, you can keep them." Emilio smirked. There were several growls of protests at that.

I concentrated harder. I imagined Nik being in my place and I in his. I imagined us exchanging places. I so desperately imagined that.

I never truly believed in moon goddess. But in that moment, I prayed to her. I prayed to her to help me use my powers. And that if we got out of this alive, I will never doubt her existence.

He pushed his groin against my ass again and I could feel his hardness. Tears spilled down my cheeks. I can't. I can't.?I can't...

My powers weren't working and I was getting desperate here. Frustration filled me. I hated his touch. I hated being held by him. I hated this. I just wanted to be free.

"Release her.?Now." Nikolai growled furiously.
