Betrayed By My Mate, Now Claimed By The Lycan King Chapter 93: You're Bleeding On A Road
One of the Kronvik guards locked up with an Asmark rider and both went down hard enough to knock air from lungs. Emil, wound and all, dragged the driver clear of the cart wheel by the back of his collar and got a cut across the forearm for the effort. I met the lead rider when he came over the cart bed at me. He was heavier than he looked and he used the height of the wagon. His blade scored the side of my ribs where the leather thinned. Heat followed. Not deep enough to drop me. Deep enough to make the next movement honest. I caught his wrist, turned my weight, and slammed him into the cart rail hard enough that the wood cracked. His sword fell into the mud. For a moment his eyes showed surprise that Ironfang's "claimed mate" hit like someone who had stopped caring whether the stories called her a weapon or a warning. "Enough!" The shout came from the ridge road. Magnus Eriksen was finally moving, and he was moving fast. His party came down off the higher ground in a ti

The first crack did not arrive as a speech. It arrived as dust on the southern approach and the sound of a wagon that should not have been moving. Josefine was still on the platform when the lookout called it. A single cart, light load, Kronvik trace-markers on the side, coming hard up the fork road as if the driver believed speed could substitute for permission. Behind it, farther back on the ridge line, Asmark's green banners shifted. Not a charge. A closing of distance. The kind of movement made by people who had decided the afternoon had lasted long enough. "Who authorized that cart?" Josefine snapped. No one answered fast enough. I was already at the rail with Sunna. Emil pushed himself upright against the wall, face drawn, eyes sharp despite the wound. The post's gates were still barred. That should have made the cart someone else's problem until it reached the checkpoint. It did not feel like someone else's problem. The driver saw the closed palisade and tried to

"How close?" I asked. The runner glanced at Josefine, then answered anyway. "Close enough that if they push to the fork before night, this post becomes a conversation instead of a checkpoint." Sunna's hand rested near her knife without drawing it. Emil looked like a man recalculating every route he had ever trusted. Josefine stared down at the burned Kronvik board, then at me. "You want the ten days held," she said. "Asmark wants the routes while you're busy surviving. My Jarl wants grain moving to buyers who can still protect a wagon. You can see how these wants do not sit quietly beside each other." "Then give me the hearing before Asmark turns a review into a takeover," I said. "Ironfang still stands. The occupation outside our walls is not the same thing as Ironfang being finished. If your Jarl lets Asmark buy the southern roads with fear, he won't get those roads back cleanly when the fear moves on." Josefine held my gaze for a long breath. "There's a relay rider
Betrayed By My Mate, Now Claimed By The Lycan King Chapter 90: Josefine Is Here
We rode before the sky finished deciding what color it wanted to be. Four horses. Light packs. The Kronvik board wrapped tight against Sunna's back. Emil Ruud on a fresh mount he clearly hated needing, jaw set against the pull of the wound under his sleeve. Two scouts who knew how to keep their mouths shut and their eyes open. No banners. No speeches. Just the southern service track and the knowledge that every open stretch of ground between us and the tree line was a place Jakob's people could still decide to get interested. Leaving the keep did not feel like freedom. It felt like stepping off a ledge and trusting the air to hold. The first hours were quiet in the way that makes your shoulders stay tight. We avoided the main cut where the caravan had burned. Sunna took us wider, through low scrub and the broken stone lines that old patrols still used when they did not want to be counted. Once we heard riders far to the east — too many for comfort, too far to identify

We rode out under a sky already leaning toward evening. The southern approach was not clean. It never had been during the occupation. We used the lower service track and the cover of the broken stone lines that ran toward the river fork, moving fast and quiet. Sunna took the lead. Emil, pale but steady, marked the turns. The two additional scouts watched the flanks. I kept my attention split between the path and the distant sense of the keep behind us — not the fragment, not the old tunnels, just the simple weight of leaving the walls while the walls still held enemies on their outer stones. The cut announced itself with the smell of wet ash. What remained of the caravan sat in a blackened scatter across the narrow road. Two wagons were skeletons. The third had been tipped and burned from the inside. Grain that had not been carried off was a spoiled dark mess in the mud. The Kronvik marking on the lead board had been left deliberately clear of the worst charring, pale wood agains

The messenger came in at dusk with blood on his sleeve and a horse that looked ready to drop. He was one of ours — a southern scout named Emil Ruud, lean and wind-burned, the kind of man Matthías trusted with routes that did not forgive mistakes. The guards at the secondary access nearly put an arrow in him before he got the recognition signal out. By the time they brought him into the inner hall, he was holding his left arm stiffly against his ribs and the report was already written on his face. Gunnar did not make him wait for privacy. “Talk.” Emil’s voice was rough from hard riding. “Caravan on the lower southern road. Three wagons of grain and dried stores meant for the intermediate hold at the bend. Kronvik markings on the lead wagon. They never reached the hold. Hit at the narrow cut before the river fork. I counted at least eight attackers. Fast. Organized. Not rabble.” Matthías’s expression went flat. “Casualties?” “Two drivers dead. One guard missing. The rest scattere
