Barbarian: Chapter Twenty

last update Last Updated: 2025-11-30 22:26:38

The darkness did not feel empty this time.

It felt crowded.

Warm hands, distant voices, Adrian’s scream echoing from somewhere far away, the wolf pacing inside his ribs, the echo of Alvar’s breath against his skin—it all clung to him like shadows that refused to separate.

Caierre drifted through it, weightless and drowning at the same time.

He didn’t know how long he stayed there before something tugged him upward again—quiet at first, then firmer, like fingers hooking into the fabric of him and pulling.

He gasped.

Air rushed into his lungs like icy water.

His eyes snapped open, just barely, and the first thing he saw was… the ceiling.

A terrible ceiling. A boring ceiling. Uneven wood beams that looked like they had too much of a story and not enough sanding.

He blinked.

Devil Caierre appeared, pointing at the beams.

‘If you die again, make sure it’s with a better view. Like a chandelier. Something dramatic.’

Angel Caierre threw sparkles at him.

‘HE IS ALIVE. STOP BULLYING HIM.’

    The first thing Alvar did when he opened his eyes was to look for Caierre, his eyes darting around as the memories of the previous night flooded him. “Moon, what have I done?” He ran his hand through his head, his eyes glistening with tears. He had hurt Caierre without him realizing. But that wasn’t an excuse right? Even if he had let the madness take control of his body and mind, it was still his hands that went into Caierre’s body. He hated himself right now, his wolf whimpered in sadness. “Alpha,” Grant's voice came as he walked into the chambers. He didn’t approach yet, as if unsure whether Alvar wanted anyone near him. “You’re awake again.” His voice was laced with worry, Alvar could sense that. But right now, he wanted to see Caierre even if it’s from afar. He needed to see Caierre. Even if he wasn’t allowed to go near him, even if Caierre no longer wanted to look at him. He needed to make sure he was breathing, moving and alive. “How’s Caierre?” His voice had an edge of

    Esmeralda did not like silence. Silence always felt like a punishment, like the world was holding its breath and waiting for something to break. And right now, she was the one breaking. She paced around her chambers, feet moving in circles, her hands shaking a little. She tried to keep her face calm, but her anger was hot under her skin. It had been hours since the healers pulled Alvar out of the madness and hours since the news reached her. The plan failed. Her lips pressed together as she stopped walking and grabbed the edge of the table. Her fingers tightened around it until her knuckles went white. She closed her eyes for a moment, trying to breathe, but that only made it worse. She could still remember the moment she placed the small bottle close to Alvar’s face, her voice soft as she asked him if he was okay. He had breathed it in and had fallen right into the trap, The madness took him like she wanted. His wolf lost itself to the curse and He had attacked Caierre just like

    Rowden sat in the center of the old meeting hall, the one the ironmoon pack used whenever something serious came up. The room was quiet at first, only the crackling sound of the fire burning in the stone pit. One by one, his pack members entered, some with tired faces, some still shaken from their long journey, all of them waiting for him to speak.Rowden watched them settle down on the wooden benches. His chest felt heavy, but he hid it well. He had been running beside them for days, guiding them away from the Wulfren plains, guiding them away from death. Now they were here, under Ironmoon’s mountains, given shelter by Lady Morwen herself. But safety always had a price. He had learned that long ago.“Everyone is here,” one of the older wolves whispered.Rowden nodded and stood up.“Lady Morwen has made us an offer,” he said. His voice echoed lightly through the hall. “She wants us to join her pack. She wants us to fight with her. She plans to lead an uprising against Silvermark.”A
