Bound to the Alpha King The Reflection That Wasn't Hers
My reflection smiled at me.I didn't.For several seconds, neither of us moved.Then it lifted its hand.I kept mine at my side.It pointed behind me.I turned.Nothing.When I looked back, the reflection had changed.It was crying.A single tear slid down its cheek.Then it mouthed two words.Save Kael.I spun around.Kael was on his knees.Black veins had spread across his chest, twisting around the black crown fused beneath his skin.His hands were shaking.“Selene…”I rushed toward him.The First King caught my wrist.“Don't.”I pulled against him.“Let me go!”“If you touch him, you'll wake it.”“I don't care!”“You will.”He tightened his grip.“You always say that.”Kael screamed.The sound tore through the chamber.I stopped fighting.His back arched.A second heartbeat thundered through the room.Boom.Boom.Boom.Not Kael's.Something else was beating inside him.I looked at the First King.“What is inside him?”His expression became unreadable.“Me.”Kael's head snapped upw
Bound to the Alpha King The Father Who Remembered
“You promised you would never remember me.”The child's words remained suspended in the chamber.Kael stared at him.For the first time since I had known him, the Alpha King looked genuinely afraid.Not afraid of death.Afraid of recognition.“Kael,” I whispered.He didn't answer.The child floated between us, his tiny fingers curled against his chest.“Father.”Kael took another step backward.“No.”The child tilted his head.“You said that before.”Something cracked inside the stone beneath us.The hundreds of Kaels behind Julian raised their heads simultaneously.Their eyes were silver.Every one of them looked at me.I felt suddenly surrounded by men who wore the face of the person I loved.But none of them were breathing.“Why are they here?” I asked.Julian turned toward them.“I don't know.”“You said you remembered.”“I remembered enough to be afraid.”The woman wearing my face laughed quietly.“That's the problem with memories.”She stepped toward the child.“They never retur
Bound to the Alpha King The Woman Holding the Child
I could not remember how to breathe.The coffin was too small.Too cold.Too real.My palms struck the glass above me, but there was no sound.No echo.No temple.No Caelan.No Julian.Only Kael.He lay inside the coffin beside mine.A sword pierced his chest.Blood had dried across his shirt.His eyes were closed.“Kael.”My voice came out as a whisper.I hit the glass again.“Kael!”His fingers moved.I stopped.Slowly, his hand rose.He placed his palm against the glass between us.I pressed mine against it.Warm.He was warm.His eyes opened.Silver.Not gold.Not the Kael I had just fought.My Kael.“Selene,” he mouthed.I couldn't hear him.But I knew the word.Tears filled my eyes.I pressed harder against the glass.Then the woman behind him stepped closer.She had my face.My eyes.My mouth.Even the small scar beneath my left eyebrow.But she was older.Much older.She held a newborn wrapped in black cloth.The baby was crying.The sound reached me through the glass.And som
Bound to the Alpha King The Woman in Her Shadow
The shadow moved before I did.That was the first thing I understood.My hand remained at my side.Its hand rose.Slowly.Deliberately.And when its fingers curled, every bell beneath the temple stopped.Not faded.Stopped.Even the heartbeat beneath my feet vanished.Kael stared at the woman-shaped darkness beside me.“Selene,” he whispered.I could barely breathe.The shadow turned its head toward him.It had no face.Yet somehow, I knew it was smiling.“You still call her that.”The voice came from everywhere.From the stone.From the throne.From inside my bones.Kael stepped toward me.The shadow immediately stretched between us.“Don't.”Kael stopped.The black crown fused to his chest pulsed once.Gold light crawled beneath his skin.His face twisted in pain.“Kael!”I reached for him.The shadow grabbed my wrist.Its fingers felt exactly like mine.Warm.Familiar.Terrifying.“You always run to him.”The words struck something inside me.A memory flashed.Kael kneeling in bloo
Bound to the Alpha King The Woman Who Called Her Daughter
“The most dangerous monster is not the one that steals your face. It is the one that remembers being you.”“Hello, daughter.”Selene couldn't move.The woman standing across the chamber looked like her.Not similar.Not related.Her.The same eyes.The same mouth.The same scar beneath the collarbone.But older.Far older.Kael stood beside Selene, shaking beneath the black crown.His eyes flickered between silver and gold.“Don't listen to her,” he whispered.The woman smiled.“He always says that.”Selene's heart tightened.“You're not me.”The woman tilted her head.“Then why do you remember my pain?”Selene said nothing.“Why do you wake crying for a child you've never had?”Another step.“Why do you fear the Ninth?”Another.“And why does Kael die every time you remember?”Kael grabbed Selene's hand.“Don't answer.”The woman laughed.“You see?”She looked at Kael.“Still protecting her.”Then her expression hardened.“Even though she has killed you more times than anyone.”Selen
Bound to the Alpha King The Memory That Wasn't Hers
“If your memories can be stolen, how do you know the person you love ever loved you first?”“I am the reason you have been killing Kael for thousands of years.”Julian's voice was Selene's.The chamber seemed to stop breathing.Selene stared at him.“No.”Julian smiled.Her smile.The same small curve at the corner of her mouth when she was trying not to cry.“No,” Selene whispered again.Kael stepped between them.“Get away from her.”Julian looked at him.“You still protect her.”“I always will.”“Even after she kills you?”Kael's jaw tightened.“Yes.”Julian's expression softened.“That's why she chose you.”Selene looked at Kael.“Did you know?”“No.”“Then why does he sound like me?”Kael shook his head.“I don't know.”Julian laughed.“You never know.”His silver eyes flashed gold.The room shifted.Selene saw herself standing where Julian stood.Same posture.Same clothes.Same scar beneath her collarbone.Then the vision changed.She was older.Her hair was white.She was hold
