I found him sitting on my doorstep at midnight.
The Lycan King. Armor discarded. Shirt wrinkled. Hair disheveled in a way that made him look younger. More human. Less like the untouchable ruler who commanded armies and more like a man who had reached the end of his rope.
He did not look up when I approached. Just stared at his hands. His shoulders curved inward like the weight pressing down on them had finally become too much

AUCTIONED TO THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER 110
MAYAI showed up at the palace with a single bag at midday.No announcement. No discussion. I just walked through the gates carrying everything I owned and headed straight for the royal wing.Guards nodded as I passed. Servants stepped aside. No one questioned the Queen walking through corridors like she owned them.Because I did. Whether they liked it or not.I stopped at the room next to Asher's chambers. Not the separate wing I had occupied before. Not the distant quarters where I could pretend the marriage was still just political.The room that shared a wall with his. Where I would hear him move. Where the bond would not have to stretch across the palace to reach him.The door was unlocked. I pushed it open.Simple. Clean. A bed. A desk. A window overlooking the training grounds. Everything I needed and nothing I

MAYAI found him sitting on my doorstep at midnight.The Lycan King. Armor discarded. Shirt wrinkled. Hair disheveled in a way that made him look younger. More human. Less like the untouchable ruler who commanded armies and more like a man who had reached the end of his rope.He did not look up when I approached. Just stared at his hands. His shoulders curved inward like the weight pressing down on them had finally become too much to carry.Through the bond I felt his exhaustion. Bone deep. The kind that came from days without sleep and decisions that cost pieces of your soul."Asher?"He looked up. His silver eyes were bloodshot. Shadowed. Haunted in a way I had never seen."I do not know how to be what you need."The confession fell between us. Raw. Unguarded. The kind of honesty that cost him something to speak alo

ISABELLAThe letter arrived at midnight.I held it under the single candle burning in my room. Read the words that had become my only comfort in the weeks since Damien stopped looking at me like I mattered.*Meet me at the usual place. Dawn. Come alone.*No signature. None needed. Lord Kael's handwriting was distinctive. Sharp angular strokes that matched the calculated precision of the man himself.I dressed in the darkness. Simple clothes. Nothing that would draw attention. A cloak to hide my face. The streets were dangerous this late but I did not care.Danger was better than sitting in this empty house waiting for Damien to remember I existed.The meeting place was a abandoned chapel on the eastern edge of Crescent Moon territory. Neutral ground. Private. No one came here anymore since the roof collapsed ten years ago.

DAMIENThe scout arrived at dusk covered in dirt and blood.He stumbled into my tent. Collapsed to his knees. Breathing hard like he had run the entire way back from the western border."Report" I said."The ambush failed Alpha. We lost three fighters. Fifteen captured."I set down the map I had been studying. Turned to face him fully."How?""They were waiting for us. Knew exactly where we would hit. Had forces positioned in perfect cover. It was like they read our entire plan before we executed it."My jaw tightened. "Someone talked.""No Alpha. It was not that. It was her."My blood went cold. "Her?""The Queen. She was there. Leading the Lycan forces. She predicted our attack. Set the trap herself."The words hit me like a physical

MAYAThe war room erupted when I volunteered."Absolutely not" Asher said. His voice carried the weight of a king who expected obedience. "You are not going to an active combat zone.""I know how Damien thinks. I know his patterns. I can predict where he will hit next.""Then tell the soldiers. Give them your assessment. You do not need to be in the field."I planted my hands on the table. Leaned forward. Met his silver eyes across the map."I need to be there. Not sitting in this palace theorizing while other people risk their lives on intelligence I provided.""Maya.""I am going Asher. With your blessing or without it."The room went silent. No one spoke to the Lycan King that way. Especially not in front of his military leadership.Through the bond I felt his response. Ang

ASHERThe alarm bells rang at three in the morning.I was already awake. Standing at the window of my study watching the pre-dawn darkness. Sleep had become something I stole in fragments. Minutes here. An hour there. Never enough. Never restful.The bond with Maya hummed steadily. She was sleeping. Finally. After the training session with Rhea that left her so exhausted she could barely walk.I felt her wake the moment the bells started. Felt her confusion shift to alertness. To fear.Then I felt her move. Getting dressed. Arming herself. Heading toward the palace.She would come. Of course she would. My queen who could not stay away from danger even when every instinct should tell her to run.Ethan burst through my door without knocking."Western border. Multiple contacts. Fast moving assault."

MAYAEthan delivered the intelligence report at dawn.He did not knock. He walked straight into the war room where Asher and I were reviewing the extraction plan and dropped a folder on the table with a weight that did not match its size."We found more of them" he said.I grabbed the folder before

MAYAI spent three days preparing before I went to him.Not with emotions this time. Not with begging or tears or desperation. I went with a plan. A real one. Drawn on maps I borrowed from the war room. Annotated with details pulled from four years of living inside Damien's territory.I knew the Cr

ISABELLAHe smelled like that basement room again.Dust and old paper and obsession. The scent clung to his clothes and his skin and followed him through the house like a ghost that refused to leave.I was sitting in the bedroom when he walked in. Midnight. He did not look at me. He walked straight

DAMIENSilas arrived at midnight looking like he had not slept in days.Good. Neither had I.I received him in the basement room. The one with the photographs. The one Isabella now knew about but did not dare mention again. Not after the look I gave her the last time she brought it up.Silas stood
