The voice I heard yesterday kept me up for days, My routine consisted of eating and sleeping even though I was unable to sleep

Suddenly three knocks hit the door.

I already knew who it was before I crossed the room. Nobody else in this palace knocked like that.

I pulled it open.

Kaelen stood there with both hands braced against the frame. “Right. I’ve had enough of you rotting in this room all alone.”

I crossed my arms. “I’m not rotting.”

“You absolutely are.” He leaned against t

  • Bound To The Lycan King    CHAPTER 91: Pain and Betrayal

    AYLIN The ache came first, then the smell. Copper, thick enough to coat my tongue. It took me a moment to understand it was mine. I tried to lift my head and the room swung sideways. My limbs felt filled with wet sand. Silver cuffs held my wrists above me, and every pulse of my heart pushed a fresh wave of cold through my chest, as if someone had opened a drain and the warmth was running out of me. "Careful. You've lost a good deal." The voice drifted out of the dark past the torchlight, soft and amused. A man stepped into view, and my stomach dropped. Skin pale as candle wax. A cloak that swallowed the firelight. Eyes the red of old wine. "Malakai." "You remembered." He looked delighted. "I wasn't sure the dream had stuck." "What do you want from me?" The words scraped out, barely louder than breath "Don't spend your strength on questions, darling." He pulled a stool from the shadows and sat across from me, elbows on his knees, like a friend visiting a sickbed. "You have so l

  • Bound To The Lycan King    CHAPTER 90: Fear

    LUCIEN A guard knelt the moment I stepped into the corridor, head bowed low enough that I could see the tension in his shoulders. "What is it." I didn't bother softening the question. Whatever had pulled me away from that room, from her, had better justify the cost. "Sire. Your presence is needed in the council chamber." "Why." "Something urgent, Your Majesty. It couldn't wait." "Fine." I bit the word off and strode past him, every step carrying the weight of irritation I hadn't fully shed since leaving her asleep behind that door. The council chamber felt colder than usual when I entered, lit by torchlight that did nothing to soften the mood already pressing down on the room. Terak stood at the head of the table, a stack of reports in his hands, his expression grim enough that I abandoned whatever sharp greeting I'd planned. "What," I said instead, dropping into my seat. "Disappearances." Terak set the reports down in front of me. "Across four separate packs this tim

  • Bound To The Lycan King    CHAPTER 89: The Seal

    AYLIN'S POV Three days of training had left bruises on top of bruises, but for the first time, I felt something shifting. "Again," Iliana said. I focused on the wooden target across the yard, reaching for that same thread of concentration that had sent the equipment flying days earlier. This time, instead of chaos, a single practice sword lifted cleanly off its rack and hovered steadily in the air. "Better," Iliana said. "Control matters more than power. Anyone can be strong. Strength without control simply becomes another threat to the people around you." I lowered the sword gently back to the ground, sweat sticking my shirt to my back, exhaustion pulling at every limb. It was a different kind of tiredness than before, though. Less like collapsing, more like something being built. Lucien watched from the edge of the yard, arms crossed, a small, proud smile tugging at his mouth that he probably didn't realize was showing. "That's enough for today," he said, once Iliana g

  • Bound To The Lycan King    CHAPTER 88: Summoning the Council

    LUCIEN'S POVHer breathing slowed gradually beneath my hand, the panic draining out of her by degrees until her eyes finally drifted shut again.I stayed exactly where I was, watching the rise and fall of her chest, cataloguing every small twitch of her fingers against the sheets like it might warn me of another nightmare before it fully took hold. When her breathing settled into something even and deep, I allowed myself to exhale.He threatened her. Tairn's voice simmered low, a growl that hadn't fully faded since she'd spoken those words.I know.And he threatened this kingdom.I know that too.I brushed a strand of hair away from her face, memorizing the shape of her features in the dim candlelight, the same way I had every night since nearly losing her. Whatever waited beyond these walls, whoever this creature was who'd found his way into her dreams, he'd made one mistake already. He'd shown himself, however briefly, however deliberately.That gave me something to work with.I pre

    AYLIN'S POV "Try reaching for your other powers the way you reached for the healing," Iliana said, for what felt like the twentieth time."I'm trying.""Maybe picture something ," Kaelen offered, entirely too cheerful for someone standing safely off to the side. "Like you enjoy. Concentration helps.""I'm concentrating, Kaelen.""Have you tried breathing through it?" Seraphine added. "Sometimes when I need to shift, I focus on my breath.....""I'm breathing." My jaw tightened. "I'm breathing, I'm concentrating, I'm picturing things, I'm doing every single thing all of you keep suggesting, and none of it is working."Hours had passed since the healing had worked, hours of standing in the same spot trying to summon anything else, and my body ached with a kind of exhaustion that had nothing to do with physical exertion. Every attempt fizzled out into nothing. Every suggestion from the small crowd gathered around me only tightened the knot forming behind my ribs."Maybe try channeling yo

  • Bound To The Lycan King    CHAPTER 86: Powers

    AYLIN'S POV Lucien's hand stayed wrapped around mine as we walked down toward the training grounds, morning light cutting long shadows across the courtyard. The moment we stepped into view, every head turned toward us at once.I felt my face heat, certain it was the hand-holding drawing the attention."Why is everyone staring?" I murmured, mostly to myself.Lucien only smirked before crossing the yard, leaving me standing there with the full weight of dozens of eyes still fixed on me.The staring didn't stop even after Lucien left to meet Terak near the sparring ring. Guards. Servants. Werewolves I'd never even met before, all of them watching me with an expression I couldn't quite name.Seraphine reached me first, pulling me into a hug so tight it nearly knocked the breath out of me. "I'm so happy for you.""Uh. Why?"She pulled back, grinning. "I can smell Lucien all over you."My stomach dropped. "Seraphine!""What? I'm just stating facts." She tilted her head, entirely too please
