The Lycan King

Avalyn

I woke up in the morning to find the cold, empty space next to mine.

He hadn't come home last night.

I had felt guilty about what I had said. But it wasn't until I reached the estate that I felt in control of myself and realise what I actually did.

I tried not to feel guilty because it was for his own good but it was difficult. And I know Nikolai can be stubborn when he wants to be.

I quickly got ready and went downstairs. His mind link was shut tight. I need to know be is alright.

"Where is Nikolai?" I asked Dimitri who was in the kitchen.

He looked confused. "Not with us. He didn't come for training either. I thought he decided to sleep in." He frowned and then his eyes fogged over as if he was mind-linking. A second later, Andrei materialised in the kitchen.

"Have you seen Nikolai?" Dimitri asked him.

"He did not come home last night." The words were like a punch to my gut.

"There is no other girl!" Dimitri rushed to me and said worriedly. "I'm sure he got stuck in his work." He reasoned.

"I know." He would never do that to me, whatever the circumstances. "We just..got in a fight yesterday afternoon." I murmured.

"Avalyn, we have visitors." Sofiya said worriedly. "The front gate."

I walked out at her tone and the men followed. I met Sofiya and Vladimir at the front gate and saw four men approaching. I pulled my wolf forward to judge them. They were vampires and she was weary about them but she wasn't scared. My family on the other hand looked very tense which lead me to believe that these were not nice people.

All of them were tall, muscular, and handsome. I could admit it. The leader had black hair and jet black eyes, it was intimidating to say the least.

"Whom do we have here?" He smirked as he saw me.

"Luna Avalyn." I said confidently. "And who would you be?"

"King Vasilik of Kingdom Mozog." He said as he looked down his nose at me. The kingdom name rang a bell. Rhazien was from there but he wasn't here today.
