Nikolai was still in the small study with Elior and Koda, and a strained quiet still plagued them, and Elior was still actively ignoring Nikolai, standing and gazing out the window.

Koda hand slumped in a worn armchair and was fidgeting in the way he did when he wanted to run his wolf.

    A cool, measured presence filtered through the mind-channel, arriving from the lower room where Elior was currently dealing with the Iskeld chancellor over the final permits and border escorts. He had clearly been tracking their thoughts between line items.Handing a frightened human queen three centuries of our private history is an extraordinary risk, Elior sent, his mental tone precise and quietly dry. Particularly when we have given her every reason to expect a cage. But if you are determined that honesty is our only workable currency, Koda, I will not stop you. Just try to make us sound moderately civilised.Koda let out a soft huff of amusement before turning his full attention back to Theia. His warm, green eyes were steady, his posture entirely relaxed as he leaned against the wall.'You want to know how I get away with speaking to Nico like that? How I can shove fuckingut without losing a limb,

    'I have eyes, Nico,' Koda fired back, his voice low and uncompromising. 'And barking at her the second she gets out of bed will not heal a single mark. Back. The. Fuck. Off.'Theia stared between them, her chest heaving as she gripped the fabric of her trousers. Kings in Iskalia did not tolerate dissent. Her father would have had a nobleman flayed for speaking to him with half that insolence, yet Koda stood in Nikolai's face without a shred of deference, challenging the hybrid king as if they were arguing over who had ruined breakfast.'You talk to him like an equal,' Theia said, the words slipping out before she could stop them.Koda glanced back at her, a faint, self-deprecating smirk touching his mouth. 'I'm usually better at pretending in public. Private rooms make me lazy.'Nikolai's jaw clenched, his temper pulling back into tight, begrudging restraint. Centuries of history meant Koda knew exac

    Theia watched both males with a cautious and confused look but didn’t say anything as Koda poured a cup of water from the pitcher on the side table and set it down on the small stand near her bed rather than handing it to her directly. He stepped back immediately, giving her room to move without feeling cornered.Theia reached out with a trembling hand and picked up the cup. The cold water helped wash away the iron taste on her tongue, finally.She looked at Koda, then across the room to Nikolai. Her heart began to hammer against her ribs again, panic cutting through the fog of exhaustion. Her thoughts erratic and taking entirely too long to piece things together.They were leaving at midday. There was no time left.'I need to see Isme and Mikka,' she said suddenly.Her voice was thin, but her demand was clear.Nikolai frowned, stepping forward before c

    Theia's body locked up at his words. Her heartbeat sped up. Nikolia frowned, noticing the change in her. The panic that was radiating from her.‘Why does it scare you so much for me to know he has been abusing you? I can tell you feel ashamed, but there must be more to it than that. How long has it been going on for?’ Nikolia's tone was direct, and Theia visibly recoiled from the bluntness.Theia started shaking her head as if she could rid herself of his words.Too close. Too close to the truth.Isme and Mikka. He would put the pieces together.Nikolai eyes soften just a fraction.‘You don’t have to tell me. I realise you don’t know me. And what you have seen of me does not paint me in the best light. But you are my wife now, Theia. You are a queen, and that means I will protect you. I will keep you safe. I promise. I realise that sounds ho

    She woke to thin grey light and the taste of copper on her tongue.Her thoughts moved slowly, struggling to rise through a thick fog that made her limbs feel like lead. For a few long seconds, she simply stared at the ceiling above her bed, listening to the dull, steady thump of her own heart.The sound felt wrong. Like it should not have been there.Theia tried to shift her weight, bracing for the sharp, stinging agony that ought to have torn across her arms. When she lifted her hands, her breath caught.There were no bandages. No blood-soaked linen, no raw open gashes weeping against the sheets.Across both forearms, where the metal had bitten deep into her flesh the night before, the skin was completely closed. In place of open wounds, thick angry pink ridges of new scar tissue ran across her pale wrists. They looked weeks old, puckered and rough, still tender to the touch but

Unsettled still with the feelings from the new bond with Theia. So different it seemed from his one with Elior and Koda. So much more out of his control.Something was moving beneath his skin, something that he had not experienced in some years, the sort of animal fury of a creature whose territory had been violated. He knew in part it was the freshness of the blood-binding, a side effect he long forgotten. But now, it was taking a tremendous amount of effort to walk h
