The Lycan King's POV An abortion? AN ABORTION!!? I had expected many things, but this was beyond what I had anticipated. The shock of her request hit me like a cold wave, leaving me momentarily speechless. “An abortion?” I repeated out loud, trying to process the gravity of what she was asking. “You want to end my child’s life?” Kayla nodded, she was practically shivering under my gaze. “Yes. I can’t do this. I don’t want to be tied to you or this situation.” My blood boiled at her words. How dare she ask for something so drastic? It felt like an insult, a direct challenge to my position. Did she know how many would kill to be her position? Before I vent my frustration, Lily stepped forward, her face contorted with anger. “How dare you?” she yelled, her voice dripping with disdain.
