Chains Of The Heart Chapter 130
The days that followed were a blur of exhaustion and small victories.Nathan threw himself into the work with a focus that surprised even himself. He was there at dawn, helping unload supply carts. He was there at midday, listening to complaints and settling disputes. He was there at dusk, his hands blistered and his back aching, doing whatever needed to be done.The villagers watched.At first, they kept their distance. Suspicious. Waiting for the mask to slip, for the true colors to show.But Nathan kept showing up.Day after day.Doing the work.Not asking for thanks. Not demanding gratitude. Just... being there.Day Three
Chains Of The Heart Chapter 129
The journey south was long, cold, and utterly miserable.Nathan had known it would be. He'd prepared for it. Wrapped himself in layers, braced himself against the wind, reminded himself that every frozen mile brought him closer to his goal.None of that made the actual experience any more pleasant.The roads were treacherous, half-hidden beneath snow that seemed determined to erase all evidence of civilization. The horses struggled. The guards took turns breaking trail, their faces numb with cold. Even the advisors who had traveled the kingdom top to bottom—huddled in their saddles and muttered prayers to gods they weren't sure they believed in.Nathan said nothing.Just rode.And thought.

Nathan stood slowly, his body protesting the hours of sitting in the same position. The council chamber felt suddenly too quiet, too still—the weight of decisions pressing down on him in a way that paperwork never could."I should go see Damian," he said quietly.Lucian looked up from the stack of documents he'd been organizing. "Now?""Now." Nathan moved toward the door. "He needs to know what we're planning. WhatI'mplanning. I can't just... disappear south without telling him."Lucian nodded slowly. "He won't like it.""Probably not.""He'll argue.""Almost certainly.""He might forbid it."

Lucian stayed where he was.Leaning against the wall, arms crossed, watching the closed door as if it might somehow explain the chaos happening behind it. He didn't move. Didn't speak. Just... waited. Because that was what he did. He waited for the pieces to stop falling so he could start putting them back together.Inside, Damian had broken in a way he didn't even know he was capable of.Not the explosive, destructive breaking of his feral rage. Not the cold, controlled shattering of grief. Something quieter. Deeper. The kind of break that happened at the very foundation of a person—the part that held everything else together.Rowan held him.Tightly. Fiercely. Damian's face pressed against his chest, Rowan's arms wrapped around him like he c

Damian's breathing became a battle.Each inhale scraped. Each exhale shuddered. His chest heaved, but no air seemed to reach him—just the burning, suffocating weight of everything he'd just learned.Rowan moved first.He shoved Ezekiel away from Damian. Not hard—just enough to break contact. Enough to stop the flow of memories pouring into Damian's mind."Enough," Rowan said.Nathan looked at Ezekiel, his red eyes sharp with warning. "Enough already."Ezekiel didn't fight. Didn't protest. He simply sat where Rowan had pushed him, his hollow eyes fixed on Damian."It was he who wanted answers," Ezekiel said quietly. "Now he must brace himself."

Damian rose from his chair.The movement was slow, deliberate—the kind of motion that said he had made a decision and nothing in the world would change it.He turned to face Ezekiel."Why would you stop them?" His voice was quiet, but it filled the room.Ezekiel met his gaze. There was no mockery in his eyes now, no theatrical glitter. Just exhaustion and something that looked almost like pity."Because all of you are making the situation worse."Damian's jaw tightened. "How?"Ezekiel was silent for a moment.Then he lifted his hands, palms up, an offering and a warning."I can show

Damian.He didn’t go to his council chamber.He didn’t send for wine, or guards, or distraction.He went straight to Nathan.The corridors felt narrower than they were, as if the stone itself knew what waited on the other side of the door.Two guards stood outside Nathan’s chambers—they stiffened w

Seraphine entered her brother’s war room without waiting for permission. Victor Cross looked up from a spread of dispatches and maps, his jaw already set with the kind of anger that sharpened instead of burned.“You’re late,” he said.“You’re alive,” she countered, tossing Nathan’s sealed letter on

The wagon lurched over a rut in the frozen road, and Rowan’s shackles clinked against the iron rings bolted to the floor. He wasn’t blindfolded—it was almost insulting how little fear the Mercers’ own escort had of him—but his hands were bound and two Cross soldiers rode alongside the transport to

Alistair had been pacing the length of his study for nearly half an hour before Rowan finally spoke.“You’re going to wear a hole through the carpet,” Rowan muttered, lounging stiffly in the chair by the window. His wrists were still faintly bruised from the shackles, but he sat like a man unbother
