I woke up with a pounding headache.

And pain.

The first thing I registered was the aching stretch of my limbs. My arms and legs were pulled tight, splayed out in an X. Metal cuffs bit into my wrists and ankles. The table beneath me was cold, and it felt like iron. Heavy. Brutal. Like it had seen a thousand prisoners before me.

My throat was dry. My lips were cracked. My head throbbed, a dull, pulsing echo behind my eyes.

I realized soon enough that something sharp was on my arm.

My body jerked against the restraints.

“Lie still, wolf,” came a voice.

Revka.

Her face appeared above me, framed in shadows. Her mouth was flat, her eyes empty. Cold.

“It will hurt less if you do.”

My vision swam. I could feel something burning through my veins. A thick pull. Like my blood was being siphoned straight out of me.

“Where am I?” I asked. My voice was barely more than a whisper.

“Somewhere,” she said blandly.

“You need to let me go.”

“You’re not going anywhere anytime soon, Princess.”

I blinked ag

    ***~~CALIX MALZARETH~~*** My hands were wrapped around Lorcan's throat, and his body was swinging halfway out the window of his chambers.“Let him go, Calix,” Mira begged behind me, her voice shaking. “It wasn’t his fault.”Lorcan grunted, blood trailing from his nose down to his lips. One of his eyes was already swelling shut. I had punched him three times before I even spoke. Maybe more. I wasn’t counting. I didn’t care.“Tell me where she is,” I growled, tightening my grip, “or I swear to the ancestors and the gods, even the goddess of Velmira, that I will throw you off this window, and your head will get to the ground before your body.”“I don’t know,” Lorcan croaked, his fingernails digging into my wrist.I shifted my hold and shoved him forward another inch. His feet scrabbled on the windowsill. Mira screamed.“You’re lying,” I hissed. “You rigged the lottery in Father’s favor.”“Because he’s the king! And he asked me to!”“We had a deal.”“I know you’re scary,” he gasped, hi

    ***~~ZEPHIRA MALZARETH~~*** High Alpha Tiberan Vaelgor’s daughter, Mae, had been in that tub for almost two hours, driving me mad.I’d been sitting in the far corner of the chamber, legs crossed, fingers twitching against the velvet of my robe. She didn’t even seem to notice. Or maybe she did. Maybe that was the point. I’d reminded her at least a dozen times that we had guests arriving soon. She just kept slipping deeper beneath the perfumed water, steam curling around her.This is the price of alliances, I told myself. The price of playing the long game. The price of power.Her head lolled back against the rim of the tub. Her lips were parted, breath coming in slow, steady puffs. Her hands—Gods.I stood.“Seriously?” I asked. “As much as I’d enjoy watching you masturbate at any other time, we have a meeting in a couple of minutes. A very important meeting with a very important man. I didn’t announce to the kingdom that I prefer women and accept your father’s cursed offspring into

    [[The Northern Kingdom of Velmira. Home of Wolf Shifters]]***~~PRINCESS LYRIC VAELGOR~~***The happiest day of my life was supposed to be my wedding day.Or so I thought.I was glowing with joy, counting down the minutes until I became Jorath Dainvale's wife—the Beta's son, my perfect match. I couldn't wait one more second, couldn't wait to stand before the world and vow myself to him forever.What I didn't know, however, was that I’d be walking into a trap, that I’d be betrayed by everyone I loved that day."Where are we going, Uncle?" I asked.My uncle, Alpha Tiberan Vaelgor, the Alpha Regent of our pack, was leading me away from the castle gates and into the woods. “To meet your groom, Lyric,” he replied."Do we have to walk this far? I'm tired, and these shoes are killing me.”"Be patient, Lyric. You'll be with him soon enough."I'd been awake since dawn, enduring hours of preparation—servants scrubbing my skin until it gleamed, arranging my hair with moonstone beads, paintin

    Jorath stared at me as if I were a stranger, his eyes cold and distant. "Don't beg," Mae sneered. "It makes you look pathetic." Tears burned in my eyes. "You're my blood. How could you do this to me? How could you betray me like this? I trusted you all." No one answered. At that moment, the clearing began to grow colder. Much colder. A sound filled the air—like the beating of a thousand wings. "They're here, Alpha," one of the guards announced, his voice tight with fear. I forced my head up, looking to the sky, and what I saw made my blood freeze in my veins. Descending through the canopy were about ten winged figures, their massive wings blotting out the moonlight. Everyone around me was backing away. Of course they were. You'd be a fool not to fear the Khra'gixx, tribrid creatures born from the unholy union of vampires, shadow wraiths, and demons. They ruled over all four kingdoms of the world. They'd built their kingdom, Noctis Vhaelor, offshore on the

    *** ~~PRINCE CALIX MALZARETH~~ *** I thought werewolves were supposed to be a lot tougher than this. The red-haired princess lay sprawled in the dirt, her wedding gown torn and filthy, begging me to take her life. “Please, Lord Calix. Kill me.” My men stood in a loose formation behind me, silent, waiting. I stared at her. I could smell her. It wasn’t just the usual earthy, musky scent of wolves. No, this was different. Warmer. Spiced. Like smoked honey and crushed oranges. A scent that shouldn’t exist. I knew what it was, but I’d be damned if I admitted it to myself. It was impossible. Khra'gixxes didn't mate with werewolves. I should probably just snap her neck, leave her in this forest to rot. It was kinder. Better than whatever awaited her in my court. But I wasn’t kind. And I was weirdly fascinated by her. I sighed, standing up. “Bring the wolf to her feet and take off her collar,” I commanded. Two of my men stepped forward, gripping her arms,

    ***~~LYRIC VAELGOR~~***Prince Calix wasn't kidding when he said I couldn't escape from this place.I’d wondered why none of his guards moved a muscle to stop me when I took off a few minutes after he left.But I got it now.They'd enchanted the place. I’d been running around in circles and getting nowhere. Every time I reached a certain distance, it was like I hit a wall. Until I finally found the river.Calix was staring in my direction, naked from the waist up. His bottom half was submerged in the water. His wings were nowhere in sight.“Come out, little wolf,” he said.Oryx, my wolf, let out a deep growl inside my head. ‘Mate.’Not this again. ‘Shut up, Oryx.’It had to be the aftereffects of the wolfsbane messing with Oryx’s head. There was no other explanation. No way was this creature my mate. My kind had legends about the Khra’gixx, and not a single one ended well for a wolf.I stepped out from behind the tree, my bare feet making no sound against the damp earth.“You foll

  • Betrayed Werewolf Princess: The Demon Prince's Pet   CHAPTER 005: The Inner Demon

    *** ~~CALIX MALZARETH~~ *** The little wolf's blood ignited something inside me that had been dead for years now, my ability to fully shift into Tai, my inner demon. A lot of people in the other kingdoms didn't know this, but the Khra'gixxes were getting weaker. Our shadow magic, our shifting ability, they were no longer what they used to be. And then there was the infertility issue. Pregnant Khra'gixxian women were becoming a rarity. I hadn't had an erection in months. But now, just one taste of Lyric's blood, and Tai was seconds away from ripping my skin apart just to get more of the wolf. ‘Let me out,’ he said. ‘No. You'll tear her apart.’ ‘Let me have her, Calix. Let me mark her.’ ‘No way.’ The words I said to Tai were more for myself than for Tai. After all, I was the one feeding him my emotions, my hunger, my lust. If I let myself go, I’d not stop feeding from her until I drained her. “What do you mean I’m not just a wolf?” Lyric said. “I grew up in Velmira

    *** ~~LYRIC VAELGOR~~ *** “Aren’t you supposed to know everything your inner self does?” I said to Prince Calix, watching him through narrowed eyes. “You’re one, aren’t you? You and Tai. Same soul, same body.” He didn’t answer right away. Instead, he unfolded those ridiculous wings from around us, and the second they slipped off my body, I hated how cold I felt. My traitorous body missed the warmth. The security. The illusion of something safe even though I knew damn well there was nothing safe about Calix Malzareth. He rose from the bed, and only then did I get a good look at what had been poking into my thighs for the better part of the day. Oh. Well. My gaze was locked on the prominent organ hanging stiffly in between his legs. Calix caught me looking and immediately turned away, muttering something profane under his breath as he stomped toward a leather bag in the corner. I didn’t look away. Not immediately. He dug through the bag, pulling out fresh clothes. Tai had abso

    The next few seconds happened in a blur.Calix shoved me behind him so fast I nearly stumbled, his body coiling in front of mine like a shield. And then his sword was out. The sound of metal unsheathing sent silence through the room.All around us, guards flinched. Steel scraped in response.One by one, the king’s soldiers drew their blades, stepping forward. Boots marching against the stone floor echoed around the room, louder than they should have. The elites and royals who hadn’t left yet started backing away, their fine robes rustling like leaves caught in a gust.They were frightened. They should be.Calix’s blade was steady in his hand, his body taut with fury. But I knew that if he made a single wrong move, they’d all come for him. Even his own guards would come too. Yes, they were as alert as they should be to protect their commander.But still, in the end, the king was the grand commander of the Khra'gixxian army.This wasn’t just a prince versus a kingdom.This was a prince

    I felt the king's stare like a claw digging into my spine, but I didn’t flinch. I leaned into Calix instead, lifting my chin. Let him look.When Lorcan had rattled off the rules earlier, he’d mentioned that the royal family had to draw last, as some sort of show of leadership.Lucky us.I scanned the room again, taking in the other Khra’gixxes with the royal markings.Some were old, their bodies shriveled and hunched.Some were young, looking almost as terrified as the invaders they were supposed to claim.Others looked somewhere in between—middle-aged and cold-eyed, ready to add new blood to their aging lines.Cousins. Uncles. Grandparents. And so on.The lucky invaders were the ones picked by one of the old Khra'gixxes. A wrinkled, broken thing would be too tired to use them properly.I watched the royal members step up one after the other to pick from the baskets.One by one, names were drawn. One by one, the invaders were claimed.But somehow—miraculously—Mae was still there.Stil

    Back in Velmira, reaching into Mae's mind had been as easy as breathing. I could mindlink with her without thinking. A simple nudge, a focused thought, and the connection would slip open like a door left on a latch.But here—In this large hall with so many supernatural bodies, it was like shouting into a hurricane.I narrowed my focus. Tried again. Reaching, searching.Mae.Mae.Mae.Nothing.The threads tangled and twisted against each other, too many open minds coming to me at once.Frustration burned through my chest. I wanted to shake her. I wanted her to know I was coming for her, that there would be no rest for her here.I pushed harder.And that was when I realized something was wrong.I wasn’t just brushing against minds anymore.I was in them.Reading them. People's thoughts. I'd been so focused on Mae that I hadn't realized the significance of the words I could hear.‘Weak humans. They won’t last one breeding session.’‘Heard the mages are good in bed, with their spells and

    His body jerked in surprise, but he didn’t pull away. He let me. He wanted me to. My wolf's teeth broke the skin at the curve of his neck. His blood flooded my mouth. It was like drinking lightning. My entire body lit up, the bond roaring to life between us until I couldn’t tell where I ended and he began. Calix growled low and deep, his cock thrusting up into me again as I drank from him, matching his savagery with my own. He was mine too. And I would claim him as ruthlessly as he claimed me. When I finally tore my mouth away, blood smeared my lips, my chin, his skin. He stared down at me, wild and wrecked, his hand cradling the back of my head like I was the most precious thing he’d ever touched. “My beautiful, vicious wolf,” he whispered, voice wrecked. “You were made for me.” He caught my mouth in another kiss—filthy, desperate. Blood and spit and hunger slicked between our lips. Our teeth clashed, tongues tangling messily, neither of us caring about grace or tenderness.

    When his lips fell on mine, the world swept away. Calix kissed like he fought—ruthless, claiming every sound, every breath. His tongue slid against mine, deep and slow, making my body tremble. One of his hands fisted in my hair, tugging just enough to make me gasp against his lips. The other hand gripped my waist, pinning me beneath the full heat and weight of him. I arched against him, desperate for more, for all the things he’d denied me the past week. His teeth grazed my bottom lip before he bit down gently, pulling a whimper from my throat. He swallowed the sound with a growl, his hips grinding against mine. “You are so stubborn,” he rasped against my mouth. “You make me want to break every bone in your body, and at the same time, you make me want to protect you.” “By protecting, do you mean caging?” I whispered back, dragging my nails down his back, feeling his muscles ripple under my touch. He pulled back slightly, just enough to look at me. His eyes weren’t just hungry—the

    “Come down, little wolf,” Calix said, eyes never leaving mine as I struggled to get my magic under control. Reluctantly, I began to descend the stairs. My fingers were still tingling, shadows still retreating beneath my skin like ink pulled back into a quill. Each step felt heavier than the last. At the foot of the stairs, I stopped. “Come closer,” he said. I did. Step by step. Until I stood in front of both princes. No one spoke. Lorcan stared openly, his eyes gleaming as they traced the faint glow of runes flashing along my collarbone and arms. “I’m very sure that decades from now, they’ll write a song about you, Lyric,” Lorcan said. “A wolf with magical powers.” Calix hissed a spell under his breath, and immediately, the glow vanished. He stood slowly, body taut with tension. “We’re all going to agree right now that this never happened,” he said, glaring at Lorcan. “What part?” Lorcan asked innocently. “That your mate didn’t try to kill our father, or that she has magical
