Now she understood the ice in his demeanor, the rigid posture. The dukedom was the final, crowning goal of their political agreement. Once he was secure and recognized as a Duke, her part of the bargain was done. Her debt would be paid. She would have the freedom she had once craved. For both of them, this title had always represented the beginning of the end.

“In the end, you insist on this because you want to be free… from me,” he added, the words sounding torn from him, raw and vulnerable.

“No,” she answered, her voice stern and clear, her grip on his arm tightening. She needed him to feel her certainty.

“It might have been that way months ago, but it’s different now. Everything is different.&rdquo

    Finn and Borin were speechless. There was no answer that would not invite violence. Thane’s control snapped. With a sudden, explosive motion, he kicked a nearby wooden chair, sending it splintering against the wall.“He is taking too long!” he snarled, not at them, but at the world. Without another word, he stormed out into the gardens, a caged animal with nowhere to run.In the ringing silence he left behind, Finn looked at the only other person who remained.“You… you are not leaving?” Borin did not look away from the empty doorway. His face was grim, but resolved.“I swore my life to the lady,” he said simply.

    The morning after the banquet, the palace was no longer a place of celebration. It was a nest of buzzing, outraged hornets. The news did not simply spread; it exploded, flying from noble to servant, from guard to merchant, until it seemed the very stones of the city whispered it.“A werewolf! She lived among us!”“The Duchess is a monster!”“She deceived the Wolf Hunter himself!Shared his bed! What dark magic did she use?”In the grand houses of the nobles, the reaction was not just fear, but a deep, insulted fury. They felt personally betrayed. That a creature they had been forced to toast, a woman from a traitorous bloodline they had reluctantl

    The massive palace gates slammed shut behind Kael with a final, heavy thud that shook the ground beneath his feet. The sound was an ending. One moment, he was Duke Kael of Cinderfell, a war hero standing in the heart of power. The next, he was a man standing alone in the cold night air, the King's last words still ringing in his ears."You are a hero of this kingdom, Kael. But until you renounce that... that creature, you are no longer welcome within these walls. Do not attempt to return."The stone walls, once a symbol of his duty and home, were now a prison wall separating him from his wife. He could still see her eyes, those wild, golden eyes, meeting his just before they dragged her away. He had not seen a monster. He had seen Elira. Terrified. In pain. His Elira.

    The silence shattered as the main doors burst open. Royal Guards flooded into the hall, but these were not the ceremonial sentries from outside. These were the King's Hunters, clad in reinforced leather, their faces set in grim masks. They moved with terrible, practiced efficiency, and in their hands were not standard spears, but cruel-looking manacles and chains, all forged from the same cursed silver as the necklace.Elira was still reeling, her body caught between human form and wolfish instinct, the broken necklace a fading brand on her throat. She had no time to react before the first weighted net, woven with fine silver thread, was thrown over her. The moment it touched her skin, a fresh wave of agony ripped through her. It was a thousand times worse than the necklace - a smothering, all-encompassing burn that stole her breath.

    "Your Highness," Elira replied, her tone equally polite, her back straight as a rod. She would not give an inch."The King's generosity is indeed overwhelming. We are both deeply grateful.""It is no more than you both deserve," Ilyana said, her eyes glinting with a challenge disguised as warmth."Kael has always been destined for greatness. Everyone at court knew it. It is a pleasure to see him finally receive his due, and with a woman of such… unique talents by his side." She let the pause hang in the air, the insult sharp beneath the pleasant words.The barb was subtle but its point was needle-sharp. Elira simply inclined her head, refusing to take the bait. As she did, h

    The Grand Hall felt like a cage made of gold and judgment. Every noble in the kingdom had crowded in, their fine silks rustling like restless leaves. The air was thick with the smell of beeswax candles, roasting meat, and expensive perfume. All eyes were locked on the throne dais, where the King stood with Kael and Elira kneeling before him. The light from the massive crystal chandeliers overhead made the scene feel like a painting come to life, but the tension in the room was all too real."By the power and authority vested in me as your King," his voice boomed, easily reaching the farthest corners of the hall, "and in recognition of your extraordinary service—your courage in securing our northern border, and the brilliant mind that has now given our army an unstoppable advantage—I hereby elevate you, Kael Rennar, to the rank of Duke. I grant you the lan
