Selvara's POV

I ran through the hallways, my heart pounding in my chest. Zyros was in the dungeons and he was being accused of murder, and I was the only one who believed he was innocent. I had to help him. I had to find a way to prove he did not kill his father.

But first, I needed to get back to my room before anyone saw me. But as I was running off, I turned the corner and froze.

Elder Thorne stood in the hallway. He had always been gentle with me, unlike the other elders.

"Selvara," he said softly. "Where have you been?"

My mouth went dry. "I... I could not sleep." I said.

He stepped closer slowly. "You went to see him, did you not?" I did not answer.

"Selvara," he said quietly. "I know you think he is innocent. But you must stay away from him. The council has made their decision."

"He did not do it," I said desperately. "Someone framed him. Someone had planted the evidence."

Elder Thorne sighed and faced me. "I believe you."

I stared at him. "What?"

"I said I believe you," he re

  • Cursed Bond of the Alpha   Chapter 70: breaking point

    Selvara's POVWhen the door to the cage creaked open, it was the guards bringing food for me. One crouched beside me and I expected him to leave as soon as he dropped the food, not like I was going to eat it anyways.What's the point of eating at the verge of death? With poison in my belly...I saw as his eyes wandered around my bare body. Afterall what I had on was just a little night gown that barely covered me up."Pretty little thing, are you not? Shame Mordain wants you untouched.""Stay away from me," I said while trying to crawl backward.But my body would not cooperate. Whatever Mordain had done to knock me out was still affecting me. The guard reached out and grabbed my chin. "Maybe just a little touch would not hurt," he said while his other hand moved toward my dress."I said stay away!" I tried to summon my power but nothing happened.The guard laughed. "Your power does not work here, Moonborn. The cells are warded." His hand slid down my neck, to my shoulder and then low

  • Cursed Bond of the Alpha   Chapter 69: the arrow

    Zyros's POV (at the convergence...)One moment Selvara was standing beside me and the next, she collapsed."Selvara!" I caught her before she hit the ground. Her body was limp and her eyes were closed."What happened?" Flair shouted while running toward us."I do not know," I said while shaking Selvara gently. "Selvara, wake up. Please."But she did not move. Mordain stepped forward with his hand still raised. "She is simply sleeping. The darkness does not harm those with Eclipse blood.""If you hurt her..." I started."I would never hurt my daughter," Mordain said. "Unlike you, who let her walk into danger again and again."Before I could respond, the hall doors burst open and more Eclipse wolves poured in. Dozens of them."Protect everyone!" Thorne shouted. But it was too late. The Eclipse wolves were already moving as they all surrounded Mordain."Anyone who interferes will die," Mordain announced while looking around the hall. I tried to move toward Selvara but one of the Eclipse

  • Cursed Bond of the Alpha   Chapter 68: Taken

    Selvara's POVWhen I opened my eyes, everything was dark. I tried to move but my body would not obey as my arms were heavy. I couldn't even remember what had happened earlier."She is waking," a voice said from somewhere nearby.Footsteps approached and then light appeared. A torch held by someone I could not see clearly."Welcome back, daughter," I heard Mordain's voice.My vision cleared slowly and I remembered I had fainted earlier, when I woke up again it was someone taking me away while chaos erupted where the convagence was held."Where am I?" I asked while my voice came out hoarse."Home," Mordain replied while stepping into the light so I could see him clearly. "The Eclipse territory. Where you were always meant to be."I tried to sit up but something held me down and I couldn't even sit up properly. "Let me go," I demanded."I will," Mordain said. "Once you understand and accept what you are.""I know what I am," I said. "And it is not this."He crouched beside me. Up close,

  • Cursed Bond of the Alpha   Chapter 67: the convergence

    Selvara's POVWe had just an hour left, which was barely enough time to breathe, let alone prepare for what was coming.Thorne led us through the forest to a hidden camp where his people had set up temporary shelter. They brought water, clean clothes, and bandages.I cleaned the blood from my neck while Cara helped me into a simple white dress. It was ceremonial, Thorne said. It was also traditional for those presenting themselves before the Convergence."You look like a bride," Cara whispered while tying the last knot."I feel like I am walking to my execution," I replied.Zyros appeared in the doorway wearing a dark formal robe that made him look every bit the Alpha heir he was supposed to be. His eyes found mine immediately he got out."Are you ready?" he asked."No," I said honestly."Good," he replied. "Neither am I."Thorne cleared his throat from behind him. "We need to leave now. The Convergence does not wait."We rode horses through the forest toward the capital. The city loo

  • Cursed Bond of the Alpha   Chapter 66: Between pleasure and assassins

    Selvara's POVI heard footsteps all of a sudden. Zyros had heard them too as he was already moving. He grabbed his sword from where it leaned against the wall.He walked slowly towards the entrance as I tried to look for any piece of clothing to cover myself with, but most of them were already torn from earlier. Before he could even get to the door, the door burst open and a figure stood there. We couldn't see his face, not because it was dark but because he was covering his face with a mask, but one thing that was clear is that there is a dagger in each of his hand."Found you," the figure said. Before either of us could react, more figures poured into the room and there were at least five of them.Zyros fought immediately and even though it was pretty dark, I could see him moving his sword around.I scrambled for my dress, anything to cover myself. One of the assassins lunged at me. I rolled off the bed and his dagger hit the mattress instead."Selvara!" Zyros shouted.He was fight

  • Cursed Bond of the Alpha   Chapter 65: A stolen moment

    Selvara's POVWe found shelter in an abandoned hunter's cabin deep in the forest. Though it wasn't really a good place to stay, it was manageable as we could use it before the next day when the convergence would be happening.Flair posted guards outside while the rest of us collapsed inside. Everyone was exhausted and went to rest immediately. I had tried preparing something with the herbs I could find but looking around with the food ready, they were all asleep.Cara fell asleep immediately in the corner. Tharis sat by the door, his sword across his lap and Flair paced near the window with her arms crossed. Zyros stood by the fireplace, staring into flames that were not there yet.I walked over to him slowly. "We should start a fire." And he nodded but did not move."Zyros," I said softly while touching his arm. He flinched and then he turned to me and I saw the pain in his eyes. He looked at me for a while and I just smiled at him and urged him to say whatever he wanted to "I almos
