Was | truly that damaged that my lungs couldn’t cope with any mention of the king? | shouldn't be crumpling
from the inside out so easily at just the mere thought of what King Josh could do to me. | shouldn't be this
terrified of a tyrant, hell bent on destroying the world as we knew it.
“Dylan!?” The beta was once again quick to cto my aid, his hands either side of my head, one on each
cheek as he forcedto look his way. “He’s not here, you're safe, you're safe.” | shook my head again and
continued to fight my body for breath.
*'m... I'm... not... safe.” | was getting dizzy, my head becoming so oxygen deprived that my eyes were
beginning to droop.
“You're safe with me, | will never hurt you. Dylan, you need to breathe!” | strangely knew he'd never hurt me,
and | did for sreason feel safe with him. He was a Lycan, and a royal at that, | shouldn't feel anything but
distain for him, but | can’t help it when my heart slightly jumps in my chest at the sight of him, or how a small

He cleared his throat slightly, and shook his head before finally releasing my hand from his tight grasp. He took a
large step back and then shook his head once again.
“Lewis?” He looked atlike | was the plague. Like he detested the very sight of mw, all of a sudden. Was it
