Nyx’s pov

I had not slept.

I had laid on top of the covers until the grey pre-dawn light came through the window.

I stood in the doorway of my room, my hair still a mess from a night of restless, half remembered dreams. The morning light was weak, filtering through the hallway windows in gray streaks, but it was enough to see the expression on her face

I had only just washed my face when I heard a knock. I opened the door and I saw her. My ‘sister in-law’

"Elara?"

“Good morning.”

  • BOUND BY REVENGE: The Alpha King's broken bride    Chapter 66: Derek

    Elara’s POV (Limited Third person) They reached the small house just as the sun began to set, painting the settlement in deep oranges and shadows. The small settlement sat quiet at the edge of the territory, the place looked peaceful from the outside. Modest wooden walls, a well kept yard, smoke curling gently from the chimney, a pair of small child’s boots sat neatly by the front door. The sight made Elara’s stomach twist. There was an innocent life inside this house. A family trying to live quietly after everything that had happened years ago. Thorne came off his horse first. His face was calm, but Elara knew him well enough now to see the tension building in his shoulders. She stayed on her horse for a few seconds longer, scanning the surroundings one last time. Then she swung down and joined him at the door. Thorne knocked firmly. Three solid raps that echoed in the quiet evening air and a long pause followed. Too long. Then the door cracked open just a few inches. A man i

  • BOUND BY REVENGE: The Alpha King's broken bride    Chapter 65: The Road to the Outskirts

    Elara’s POV (Third person limited) They left the estate before dawn, the sky still dark and heavy with the last of the night. Elara rode at the front with Thorne beside her and four trusted guards following closely behind. The air was cold and sharp, hitting at her cheeks as they moved. She kept her back straight and her eyes fixed on the road ahead, mentally going over every detail of the mission even though she had already memorized it. Derek. The former Calloway guard who had been there the night Lysandra died and who had helped take Nyx to the healer after her wolf was corrupted. They needed him alive. They needed the truth he carried. Thorne rode in silence for the first two hours. That was normal for him but today the silence felt really different. Louder. It pressed between them, thick and aware. Every now and then she felt his eyes on her, steady and quiet. She would not deny the fact that something had actually shifted between them since the last trip but she does not kno

  • BOUND BY REVENGE: The Alpha King's broken bride    Chapter 64: What We Still Do Not Know

    (Lucian’s POV) We started our journey back home with Nyx sitting in front of me on the same horse. Her back pressed against my chest, my arm wrapped around her waist to keep her steady. The journey was quiet, but my mind was anything but. Every small shift of her body reminded me of last night. The way she had moaned my name and came apart in my arms, soft, desperate and real. I had gone to her room last night with no real plan except to be near her. What happened between us was not planned but It was inevitable. And now I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Kael was still restless inside me, satisfied but possessive. She had called me her husband yesterday and those words had done something dangerous to me. Something I wasn’t ready to name yet. As the familiar stone walls and tall gates of the estate finally came into view, I felt a deep shift inside my chest. It was the same estate I had known my whole life. The same heavy gates, same grey towers and banners flying in the wind. Yet

  • BOUND BY REVENGE: The Alpha King's broken bride    Chapter 63: Husband

    *MUSIC RECOMMENDATION: GIVE ME EVERYTHING: DRAMATIC VIOLIN.* Lucian’s POV I couldn’t get her voice out of my head. *My husband.* Nyx had said it so simply outside Maren’s house, but those two words had wrecked me. I sat on the edge of the bed in my room at the inn, elbows on my knees, staring at the floor. The fire crackled softly, but it did nothing to calm the storm inside me. Kael was pacing wildly beneath my skin, restless and hungry in a way I had never felt before. She called me her husband. I thought she was going to introduce me as the Alpha or even Lucian but yet she said husband. Something primal rose in my chest. I had spent weeks convincing myself this marriage was only revenge. A cage and a punishment. But when she stood there and claimed me in front of Maren, something shifted. Kael wanted her. Not just her body. He wanted the claim. The truth in her voice. The way she had looked at me afterward. I stood up before I could talk myself out of it. I needed to see he

  • BOUND BY REVENGE: The Alpha King's broken bride    Chapter 62: The last inn

    I stepped out of Maren’s house with my heart still racing. The conversation had left me raw in the best and worst ways. Maren followed me outside, wiping her hands on her apron. She wanted to see me off. She looked at the three people waiting for me.“And who are these beautiful people?” she asked, smiling warmly.I cleared my throat. “This is Elara. She’s… my friend. She’s been helping me with Mara.”Maren nodded kindly. “It’s nice to meet you, Elara.”I continued, gesturing to the tall man beside her. “This is Thorne, the pack’s Beta.” I said that as an introduction for Thorne as i really did not what to call the kimd of relationship we had. Thorne gave a small respectful nod.I swallowed hard. I could feel Lucian’s intense gaze burning into the side of my face, like he was daring me to say it. My stomach flipped. “And uhm…” I cleared my throat again. “This is Lucian. My.. my husband.”The words felt strange coming out of my mouth. Elara’s eyebrows shot up. Thorne looked genuinely

  • BOUND BY REVENGE: The Alpha King's broken bride    Chapter 61: Finding Maren

    I sat at the edge of the ruins with my mother’s letter open in my lap, reading the same lines over and over even though I already knew every word by heart. The late afternoon sun painted the broken stones in soft orange light. Everything felt heavy.Lucian walked over and lowered himself beside me without saying anything. I didn’t tell him to go. We just sat there in silence for a long time, the kind of silence that didn’t feel empty.“She called me her sweet Ciara,” I whispered eventually.Lucian turned his head toward me. His voice was quiet. “Is that who you want to be now?”I stared at the letter, tracing the smudged ink with my eyes. The question sat in my chest for a while before I answered.“I don’t know,” I said honestly. “I’m still Nyx. The girl who learned how to survive by being sharp and cold because softness got people killed. But part of me… part of me wants to know who Ciara was. The little girl who had parents that loved her. I want to know what my life was supposed to
