RAEL

The fortress woke screaming.

Not with voices—with bells, boots on stone, the low thunder of wolves pacing behind walls too small to hold them. The Eastern watchtower rang first, then the southern gates. By the time the sun crested the hills, messengers were running so fast they forgot protocol.

Lyra’s light had not faded by morning. It pulsed behind the curtains of her chamber, slow and rhythmic, like something breathing where breath did not belong. The healers wouldn’t meet my eyes when

  • Blood Heir   29. The Voice Between Us

    LYRA The second pendant had found its way home.Lyra lay perfectly still, staring at the darkness above her as the words continued to echo in her mind.“You found me.”She slowly lifted a hand to her chest. The moon-etched pendant rested against her skin, its silver surface cool now, almost ordinary. But she knew what she had heard. It had not been a dream, she was certain of that. There had been a voice.Lyra turned onto her side, drawing the blanket closer around herself. She tried to remember every detail of the moment. The pulse of the pendant, the strange warmth spreading across her chest and the voice.Most importantly, she tried to remember whether it had sounded frightened. It had not. If anything, it had sounded relieved.Whoever carried the second pendant had found her. Or perhaps the pendant itself had. The thought unsettled her more than anything else because if the two objects were connected, then what exactly had she just awakened?She closed her eyes, but sleep refused

  • Blood Heir   28. The things that find us

    LYRADax arrived looking as though he had been expecting to be summoned. He glanced at the parchment on the table, then at me.His expression changed. "Where did you get that?"Rael folded his arms. "An interesting question, considering we were about to ask you the same thing."Dax ignored him. "Who brought it?""A messenger," I answered. "He says someone sent him."Dax's eyes narrowed. "Did he give you a name?""No.""Did he say anything about the pendant?"I glanced at Rael before answering. "He said I'm not the only one."For a moment, Dax said nothing. Then he looked towards the window. "How long has he been here?""Not long," Rael replied. "You haven't answered the question."Dax turned back. "Because I don't know who sent him.""But you know something.""I know that there are things people have spent a very long time trying to keep separated."Rael's expression hardened. "Separated how?"Now Dax was staring at me. "Two pendants. Two bearers. Two parts of something that should ne

  • Blood Heir   27. The Second Pendant

    LYRAThe horn sounded again. Its low, mournful note rolled over the fortress, cutting through the quiet of the night. My fingers tightened around Rael's and for one suspended moment, neither of us moved.Then Rael spoke. "Stay here."I stared at him in disbelief. "You cannot possibly expect me to do that.""I can expect it. Whether you obey is another matter.""At least you're learning."His mouth twitched, but the amusement vanished almost immediately. He turned towards the eastern passage, already calling for the guards stationed near the courtyard."Rael." I called out and he glanced over his shoulder."Whatever is happening, I'm coming with you.""Lyra—""You've spent the last several days telling me that I need to understand what's happening to me, that I need to stop running from it. You cannot ask me to be brave only when it's convenient."His expression shifted and there was something in his eyes I couldn't quite name. Something that seemed determined to keep buried."Stay clo

  • Blood Heir   26. The Things We Don't Say

    LYRAThere were three things I had learned since arriving at Ironclaw. First, the fortress never truly slept. Second, Liam had absolutely no respect for personal boundaries. And third, Rael had an irritating habit of appearing whenever I was beginning to enjoy myself.Unfortunately, the third discovery had become my favourite. Which was a problem, a rather embarrassing one. I was seated in the courtyard, enjoying a plate of breakfast, when Liam decided to make himself comfortable opposite me. "Good morning, trouble."I looked up. "Must you?""Must I what?""Exist so loudly?"He placed a hand over his chest. "That is a terrible thing to say to someone who came bearing gifts."He pushed a small basket toward me and inside were several pastries.I looked at him suspiciously. "What's the catch?""No catch.""Liar.""You're beginning to sound like the Alpha."I rolled my eyes and reached for one and Liam watched me for a moment before speaking."So, how was training yesterday?""Exhaustin

  • Blood Heir   25. Closer Than Breath

    LYRAThe fortress had never felt so crowded. Dax’s arrival had changed everything.Every corridor was lined with guards and every conversation dropped into whispers the moment I walked past. Every glance lingered a little too long and I had become a question no one could answer.I hated it.The only place that still felt untouched by the chaos was the training grounds. The air still carried the crisp scent of dew, and the first rays of dawn painted the packed earth in shades of gold. Few people came there this early.For the first time in days…I breathed.“You always hide here?”I didn’t need to turn. It was Rael.“I wasn’t hiding.”“No?”“No.”He folded his arms. “You disappeared before breakfast.”“I wanted silence.”He nodded once. “I understand.”The words surprised me. Most people answered loneliness with advice. Rael answered it with understanding.There was a difference, probably coming from experience. RAELShe looked lighter here, away from everyone who stared at her like sh

  • Blood Heir   24. A Pendant Like Yours

    LYRAI hated interrogation rooms. Not because they were frightening, but because they were built to make silence feel heavier than words.The chamber was small, circular, and windowless. A single lantern burned above the stone table between us, throwing long shadows across the walls. There were no chains. No guards inside. Just four people. Rael, Elder Cian, Dax and me.No one spoke for nearly a minute until Dax finally broke the silence. “You’ve had the pendant since childhood.”It wasn’t a question. I nodded. “I was found wearing it.”His eyes lingered on the crystal resting against my chest. “Has anyone ever managed to remove it?”The question caught me off guard. “I’ve… never tried.”Cian frowned. “You’ve never wondered?”“I assumed it was just a necklace.”Dax gave a humorless smile. “It isn’t.”I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. “I think I’ve gathered that much.”For the first time, he laughed. A quiet sound. Almost warm. “You’ve changed since the reports I received.”Rael s
