ElNoraaa

In a callous move and with the help of magic, Naiari ends up getting married to the crippled king Kael that her sister was promised to.

Naiari discovers that there is more to Kael than his disability, he is powerful, astute and ruthless with anyone that crosses him. Even more than that, she realizes that he is the only one that she feels genuine warmth from and she finds herself falling in love but a deep secret is stopping her from getting swept off in her feelings.

“Have you come to help me bathe wife.” Kael asked, his voice mocking and Naiari’s cheeks bloomed a rosy red of embarrassment.

“I am sorry your highness but I believe that is a task for your maids.” She said curtly, an unfamiliar tinge of jealousy annoying her as she remembered that the maids got to see him naked.

“Kael.” He said and she looked up at him in confusion.

“Call my name.” He demanded, his eyes hot as they concentrated on her lips as if willing her to open them and speak his name.

Forced To Marry The Crippled Lycan

King Kael, his face etched with fury, stood before the assembled court. The wealthy landowners who had conspired with Ara to overthrow him were brought before him, their faces pale with fear.

They had been waiting for weeks for the inevitable and every day that their punishment was not pronounced felt like a death sentence which had been delayed because they could not tell what would be done to them.

And now that they had been summoned to answer for their crimes they were about to combust from anxiety and the stood staring anxiously at their feet, heart thundering and palms sweaty.

"You traitors," the king thundered, his voice echoing through the chamber. "You dared to plot against your sovereign, to sow discord in the land. Your crimes are unforgivable."
