MAYA

The barracks were quiet despite being full.

I walked through rows of soldiers preparing for war. Some sharpened weapons. Others wrote letters they hoped would never need to be delivered. A few sat in silence staring at nothing. The particular stillness of people confronting their own mortality.

Lycan warriors. Wolf fighters from the settlement. People who weeks ago would not have shared the same room. Now they sat shoulder to

  • AUCTIONED TO THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 123

    DAMIENGabriel stood five feet away with my blood on his blade.Not much blood. A shallow cut across my ribs. He could have gone deeper. Could have finished it. But he wanted me conscious. Wanted me to understand."You were always the muscle" he said. Voice calm. Clinical. Like he was explaining basic strategy to a slow student. "Never the brain. Father knew it. I knew it. Everyone knew it except you."Around us the battlefield churned. My army collapsing. Loyalists fighting Gabriel's faction. Lycans pressing from the walls. Chaos I no longer controlled."How long?" I asked. My voice was steady despite the rage building in my chest. "How long have you been planning this?""Since you told me about Maya. Since you became obsessed. Since I realized your emotions made you controllable." He circled me. Predator assessing wounded prey. "Every suggestion I made.

    GABRIELThe moment had come.I stood on the ridge overlooking the battlefield. Chaos below. Damien's forces pressed against the Lycan walls. Blood and smoke and the sounds of thousands dying for a cause only one man truly believed in.My brother. Fighting for a woman who would never love him back. Leading an army into a meat grinder because he could not accept that some things could not be taken by force.Pathetic. Predictable. Perfect.I raised my hand. The signal my loyalists had been waiting for.On the left flank three hundred fighters stopped advancing. Turned. Drew weapons. And attacked the command unit from behind.Damien's officers never saw it coming. They were focused on the wall. On the Lycans. On coordinating the assault.They did not notice their own men turning until steel found their backs.

    DAMIENI saw her through the smoke and chaos.Fighting on the southern wall. Blade flashing. Moving with a precision I had never seen in her before. She dropped a rogue fighter with a strike so clean it could have come from a trained warrior.I stopped. Mid-swing. My opponent forgotten. Every cell in my body oriented toward her like she was magnetic north and I was the needle that would always point her direction.She was covered in blood. Dirt smeared across her face. Her armor was dented. Her hair had come loose from its braid. She looked like she had been fighting for hours.She looked magnificent.This was not the girl who used to flinch at raised voices. Not the broken thing I kept on my bedroom floor. Not the fragile creature who needed me to protect her from the world.This was a warrior. A queen. Someone who had learned to protect herself.Someone I barely recognized.My chest ached. Pride and rage and something that felt dangerously close to grief tangled together until I cou

    MAYAThe wall broke with a sound like the world splitting.I was back on the southern wall after escaping Kael's trap. Asher had torn through the mercenaries to reach me. We fought side by side until the throne room ran red. Then he kissed me hard and sent me back to my post while he hunted Kael through the palace.Now I stood with Rhea and fifteen exhausted fighters. Down from thirty. The southern wall had held but cost us dearly.Then through the chaos I heard it. A deep grinding crack followed by screams.The eastern wall."The battering ram broke through" a runner shouted. His face was pale. Blood running from a gash on his forehead. "Section twelve. The gap is widening. Rogues are pouring in."Rhea did not hesitate. "Maya. Take ten fighters. Plug that breach before they establish a foothold. If they get inside the courtyard we lose t

    MAYAThe first wave hit like a hammer.Damien's forces slammed into the eastern wall with siege ladders and battering rams and the desperate fury of an army that believed it was fighting for a righteous cause.I stood on the southern wall with Rhea and thirty fighters. A mix of Lycan soldiers and Blue Moon survivors. We were the backup. The reserve position. Not expected to see heavy fighting.That lasted ten minutes."Movement on the southern approach" a scout shouted. "Two hundred fighters. Moving fast."Rhea cursed. "Gabriel. He is splitting the attack. Hitting us from multiple sides."The fighters appeared. Organized. Armed. Moving with the precision of soldiers who knew exactly where to strike."Archers" Rhea commanded. "Loose on my mark."Bows drew. Arrows nocked. The sound

    MAYAThe sun rose blood red over the eastern mountains.I stood on the wall beside Asher. Full armor. Weapons strapped to my body with the confidence of someone who had learned to use them. My hair was braided back. War paint marked my cheeks in the Blue Moon pattern. A tribute to what I lost. A promise for what I would reclaim.The horns sounded. Long. Low. Mournful.And they appeared.Damien's army crested the ridge like a wave of darkness spreading across the plains. Thousands. More than our scouts estimated. Wolves and rogues and fighters drawn by the promise of territory and the belief they were rescuing a captive mate.They stretched across the horizon. Organized. Disciplined. Moving with the precision of an army that knew how to wage war.At the front on a black horse sat Damien.Even from this distance I knew

    ASHERI almost went to her room three times that night.The first time I made it to the end of my corridor before stopping. The second time I reached the junction where my wing split from hers. The third time I stood outside her door with my hand raised and my knuckles an inch from the wood.Each t

    MAYAIt started with a book.I found it outside my door three days after the war room meeting. No note. No name. Just a worn leather bound volume with gold lettering on the spine. A collection of battle strategies used by ancient wolf packs.I knew it was from him. No one else in this palace would

    ASHERTwenty years ago.The palace was too big for a boy my size.Every hallway stretched on forever. Every ceiling reached up so high I could not see where it ended. Every room echoed with emptiness no matter how many candles were lit or how many servants walked through.I was eight years old and

    ETHANI did not trust the wolf girl.Not when she climbed into the King's car and refused to leave. Not when she proposed marriage to a man she had known for less than an hour. Not when she signed the contract and moved into the palace like she belonged there.I had served Asher since we were boys.
