ElNoraaa

Naiari, a bastard daughter who was abandoned by her mother, ignored by her father and tormented by her stepmother the queen and her stepsister. She is a nobody without a title, without any use until her father decides to marry her off.

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

She looked at the little old man who had stepped in front of the open door in wonder. His usual white robes which were sporting ragged and dusty edges from being dragged on the ground as he walked around looked pristine.

Instead of looking disheveled and in a rush he looked like he had actually dressed himself for the occasion and when he looked at her with his mischievous smile and kind eyes Naiari's troubled heart lifted.

Since she had been cooped up with the unfriendly ladies in waiting, thoughts had been swirling through her head and she was full of doubts about getting mated to Kael but seeing just one friendly face had dispelled those negative feelings.

"Kael is the most lucky man." Arlo announced happily and Naiari smiled bashfully.

"May I have the honor of escorting the most beautiful bride that Kwall has seen to her groom?" he asked, his voice soft and reassuring.
