Elara's POV

“You’re a married man, Uther. This is wrong. We can’t continue doing this to your wife and son.”

The woman’s voice echoed softly in the hidden room, full of pain and resolve. I saw myself in her. I probably looked exactly like this the night Alpha Darius offered me a place at his side, as his secret, his mistress. Was I going to end up like this? Hiding in the shadows while another woman took the throne and title, sitting beside Lucian as wife?

Uther stepped closer, desperation cle

  • Banished By The Alpha King:Claimed By The Cursed Lycan Beast   Chapter 108

    Elara's POVThe hunters came in the afternoon.Three of them. Muddy boots. Worried faces that looked real enough to fool anyone. Their leader spoke first, a broad shouldered man with a scar across his jaw. He said their companions were dying. Torn up by something in the woods. A bear, maybe. Or worse. They couldn't move the injured. Needed a healer. Please, my lady. Please come.I didn't think twice. Didn't even think to read their minds just to be sure. The past few days had been a blur of avoiding Lucian and burying myself in work. Every time I saw his face, I remembered the conversation I had overheard. His great grandmother slaughtering my people. Him knowing I could break his curse before he ever marked me. The lies stacked on top of lies.Healing was the only thing that quieted my mind. When I pressed my hands to the sick and felt their pain fade, I didn't have to think about my own.So when the hunters asked for help, I grabbed my bag and followed them out the gate.No guards.

    Lucian's POVThree days.Three days of watching her walk past me like I was made of glass. Something she could see through but wouldn't touch.Elara threw herself into the healing hall every morning before the sun was fully up. She stayed there until the candles burned low, sometimes later. I knew because I stood in the corridor outside, listening to her voice, the soft glow of her power bleeding under the door.I tried to speak to her. The first day, I waited by the entrance to our chambers. She walked past me without looking up."Elara."Nothing."Please. Just give me five minutes."She disappeared into the room and closed the door. I heard the lock turn.The second day, I sent Kylan with a message. He returned shaking his head."She said she's busy," he reported. Then, softer, "Give her time, Lucian. She's hurting."Time. Everyone kept telling me to give her time. But time felt like sand slipping through my fingers. Every hour she wouldn't look at me, the distance between us grew

    Darius's POVLiora arrived twenty minutes later.Her golden hair was disheveled, tangled from sleep. She wore a nightgown beneath her robe, and her feet were bare. The guards must have dragged her straight from bed."Darius," she said, her voice trembling. "What is this? Why am I—""Sit down."She saw Sonia standing in the corner. Her face went pale, then red."Whatever she told you, it's a lie.""I said sit down."She sat.I didn't. I stood over her, arms crossed, letting the silence stretch until I could see her pulse hammering in her throat."Sonia tells me you are not the heir of Eclipse Pack," I said. "That Elara is. And that you knew this all along."Liora's lips parted. No sound came out."Tell me the truth," I said. "Or I will hand you over to the warriors and let them extract it from you. You know what they're capable of. You've ordered them to do worse to others."Tears spilled down her cheeks. "Please. Darius. I love you. Everything I did, I did for us.""Tell me."She brok

    Darius's POVThe fire in my study had burned out hours ago. I didn't call for more wood. The cold kept my mind sharp, and right now, I needed sharpness more than warmth.Liora had been avoiding me for days.She said she was ill. Said the trip back from the Lycan King's palace had exhausted her. But I saw the way she flinched when I entered a room. The way she found excuses to leave before I could ask her anything.She was hiding something.I didn't care enough to find out what.My thoughts kept drifting elsewhere. To Elara. To the ball. The way she had descended those stairs in a gown that caught the light like water. The way Lucian had looked at her—like she was the only thing in the world worth seeing.That should have been me.I pushed the thought down. She was mated to the beast now. Marked. Bound. There was no going back.A knock at the door pulled me from my brooding."Enter."The guard stepped in, torchlight flickering behind him. "Alpha, there is someone here to see you. She

    Elara's POVI didn't remember the walk back to the palace.The forest blurred around me. Branches scraped my arms. Roots tried to trip me. I didn't slow down. My hood fell back. My white hair glowed in the darkness, lighting the path like a torch.Lucian didn't claim you because he loves you.Lies. They had to be lies.But my feet carried me toward the study. Toward the one place I knew he would be this late. Toward the answers I was suddenly terrified to hear.The corridors were empty. The servants had retired. The guards nodded as I passed, but I didn't nod back. I moved like a ghost through the halls I had walked a hundred times.The study door was slightly ajar.Light spilled through the crack. Voices drifted out.I stopped."You need to tell her, Lucian." Gaius. His voice was low, urgent. "She deserves to know the truth before she hears it from someone else.""I know." Lucian's voice was heavy

  • Banished By The Alpha King:Claimed By The Cursed Lycan Beast   Chapter 103

    Elara's POVThe days since the engagement ceremony had blurred into a rhythm I was still learning to love.Wake up. Help the people waiting at the gates. Heal the sick. See the truths hidden in old objects. Stand beside Lucian while the realm learned to trust a White Witch. Fall into bed exhausted. Wake up and do it all again.But something was wrong.I felt it in the way Lucian's eyes lingered on me a moment too long sometimes. In the way Gaius would fall silent when I entered a room. In the way conversations stopped and started again with forced ease.They were hiding something.I told myself I was being paranoid. The curse was weakening. The kingdom was at peace—for now. Darius had retreated to lick his wounds. Sonia was gone. Liora was quiet. Everything should have been perfect.But the knot in my stomach wouldn't loosen.___________________________________________It was midafternoon when the next supplicant arrived.I was in the healing hall, a long chamber off the main courtyar

    Elara’s POVThe cage bars dug into my back as I pressed myself against them. The metal was cold and rough, smelling of rust and something sour that made my stomach turn.

    Elara’s POVI felt hurt and bad that he could get angry like that even after our morning encounter. The teasing, the laughter, the way he had stayed with me through the nightmare — I thought things had changed between us.
