Lyra woke up already breathless.

Not from a dream… but from the echo of one.

Her body felt warm… too warm… like something had been burning just beneath her skin all night without ever breaking through. The sheets were twisted around her legs, her pulse racing as if she had been running instead of sleeping.

The bond hummed.

Low… persistent… demanding.

She sat up slowly, pressing a hand to her chest, trying to steady her breathing. The room was quiet, moonlight spilling through the tall windows i

  • FERAL MOON: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING   EPILOGUE: THE MOON THAT CHOSE THEM

    The moon rose whole and unbroken above Nightbane territory.Not red.Not bleeding.Not screaming for war.It shone silver… steady… watchful.Lyra stood at the highest balcony of the fortress, bare feet resting on cold black stone, a silk cloak draped loosely over her shoulders. The wind carried pine and night-blooming flowers up from the valley below, brushing against her skin like a familiar hand.She breathed it in.Home.The word still felt new… fragile… powerful.Behind her, the castle was quiet in a way it had never been before. No tension coiled in its walls. No whispers of rebellion. No fear of the Alpha King’s temper turning lethal at the wrong moment.The fortress knew peace now.Because its king had chosen it.Because its queen had survived it.A presence moved behind her.She didn’t turn. She didn’t need to.The bond hummed… warm… steady… alive.Ares stepped close, his chest pressing gently to her back. He rested his chin near her temple, not claiming… not commanding… just

  • FERAL MOON: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING   Final Chapter: Under the Feral Moon

    The moon rose full and unforgiving above the kingdom… ancient… watchful… complete.Lyra stood at the highest balcony of the citadel, the night wind threading through her hair, carrying the scent of pine, stone, and something deeper… belonging. The ache that once lived in her chest was gone. In its place was warmth. Weight. Certainty.Behind her, the kingdom waited.Not in chains.Not in fear.But in silence.Ares Nightbane stepped beside her, his presence unmistakable. He no longer wore armor. No crown either. Just black, simple, honest. Power rolled off him anyway… not demanded… accepted.When he took her hand, the bond answered instantly. Not wild this time. Not feral. Steady. Sure. Like two halves finally breathing in rhythm.“You don’t have to do this,” he murmured quietly.Lyra smiled, small but unshakable. “I already did. The moment I ran toward danger instead of away from it.”He studied her the way he always did… as if the world narrowed when she was near. “You changed everyth

  • FERAL MOON: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING   Chapter 52: The Trial the Moon Demands

    The council chamber was already full when Ares entered.Lyra felt it before she saw it…the pressure of dozens of wolves turning toward her at once. Power pressed against her skin, old and territorial, testing her presence like teeth against bone.Ares’ hand never left hers.He guided her forward with calm authority, his steps unhurried, his expression carved from stone. This was not a man coming to explain himself. This was a king stepping into judgment already decided.The elders sat in a half circle of carved obsidian chairs, their gazes sharp, ancient, unyielding. Alpha banners lined the walls, each bearing symbols of bloodlines older than memory.Lyra recognized some of them.She had grown up on stories whispered in human villages. Warnings. Legends. Names spoken carefully.Ares Nightbane had always been one of them.Now she stood beside him.“You bring her here openly,” Elder Kael said, his voice like gravel dragged across steel. “Without ritual. Without binding. Without approval

  • FERAL MOON: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING   Chapter 51: Where the Bond No Longer Hides

    Lyra woke to the sound of breathing that was not her own.It surrounded her…slow, steady, controlled…yet beneath it pulsed something feral, restrained by will alone.She did not open her eyes immediately.Her body already knew who it was.Warmth pressed behind her, broad and solid, an arm curved around her waist like a barrier against the world. Ares’ presence wrapped around her senses, not overwhelming this time, but deliberate…anchored.Awake, the bond murmured.Not whispered…not demanded…simply stated.Lyra inhaled slowly, letting the truth of that settle inside her chest. The ache was still there, but it was different now. No longer sharp. No longer panicked. It felt…claimed.When she finally opened her eyes, stone walls greeted her. Morning light filtered through tall windows, pale gold spilling across the floor. The chamber was quiet, but not empty. It felt lived in…marked.Just like her.Ares shifted behind her as if he sensed the moment she crossed fully into wakefulness. His

  • FERAL MOON: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 50: WHEN THE MOON ANSWERS BACK

    Night deepened over Nightbane Fortress.The pack had dispersed, but the air remained unsettled, like the echo of thunder after lightning strikes the ground. Wolves returned to their quarters in silence, thoughts heavy, instincts restless. Something fundamental had shifted, and every creature beneath the Moon could feel it.Lyra felt it too.She stood at the tall arched window of the west tower, her fingers resting against the cold stone as she watched the forest below. Moonlight spilled across the treetops, silver and heavy, pressing down on her chest until breathing felt like effort.Behind her, Ares closed the door.The sound was soft. Final.She did not turn immediately. She didn’t trust herself to.The courtyard confrontation replayed in her mind. The eyes on her. The weight of judgment. The moment Ares had turned to her and given her a choice that had terrified her more than any rogue wolf ever could.“You didn’t have to do that,” she said quietly.Ares stopped several paces behi

  • FERAL MOON: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 49: THE KING MAKES HIS CHOICE

    The pack gathered at dusk.Not by invitation.By instinct.Wolves lined the inner courtyard of Nightbane Fortress, shoulders squared, heads high, eyes sharp. The air was tight with anticipation, thick with something unspoken but undeniable. The Moon hung low and swollen above the black stone walls, casting silver across armor, fur, and skin alike.A reckoning was coming.Lyra felt it in her bones.She stood at the edge of the platform beside Ares, her hand resting lightly against his forearm. Not held. Not restrained. Simply there. Her presence alone was enough to send ripples through the crowd.Whispers spread like sparks through dry grass.Human.Mate.Moonblood.Chosen.Lyra’s spine straightened.She did not bow her head.Ares stood unmoving, his posture relaxed in a way that was anything but. He wore no crown. No ceremonial armor. Only dark leather and steel, his presence alone enough to command silence when he stepped forward.The murmurs died instantly.“I did not call you here
