Forced To The Beast Lycan King: His Plump Little Wolf Chapter 87: Closer Than She Thought
**Eirian’s Pov**News of Aldric's death reached the fortress at noon. By evening, I still couldn't get it out of my mind.What was actually going on?Vorath had read Thalorion's letter to me in our chamber. When he finished, he folded the paper, placed it on the table, and was silent for a long time."He was my only living witness," I said, my shoulders dropping in defeat."You are still a witness.""All I have is a memory no one else sees. They'll say I made it up. They'll claim Aldric was innocent and that the Luna's nightmares drove a good man to hang himself.""Let them talk." He knelt in front of me, careful not to strain his injured shoulder, and gently pulled my hands away from my face. "We don't need FrostHowl to believe us. We need to find the people who were so afraid of the truth that they killed him.""Thalorion said Aldric feared someone above them.""Yes.""Someone above the council. Above the Lycan thrones." I laughed bitterly. "Who could be above a king?""Someone who

**Thalorion’s Pov**"Alpha, the council is not in session." One of the guards at the entrance blocked me."I know. I'm here to see Elder Aldric.""He is in the inner chamber, my lord. He often stays there to pray late into the night.""Then I won't keep him for long."They moved aside. The inner chamber was small and warm, with only one lamp lighting the room. Aldric knelt before the Moon altar, his hands joined, and his white head bowed.He had always looked like a kind old man to me, but who would've thought…"Thalorion," he said without turning around. "I wondered how long it would take you."My brows pulled together. "You knew I would come?""I read the King's letter this morning. I've been expecting you ever since."He rose slowly, using one hand to support himself on the altar, then turned to face me. His eyes were kind. That was the worst part."Sit, child. You look as though you haven't slept.""I'll stand.""As you wish."I went straight to the point."Eirian Hale says you we

**Vorath’s Pov**I rubbed her back until her sobs stopped.It took a long time. She melted in my arms on the cottage steps, with her fingers gripping my coat as I felt every ragged breath coming from her.Her weight pressed on my injured shoulder, causing more pain, but I didn't mind. Physical pain was nothing compared to what she was going through."Aldric," I said at last, with my chin on her hair."Yes. I'd stake my life on it." She raised her head. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying. "I want him to pay for what he did, Vorath.""So do I."I led her back to our chamber and sat her on my lap by the fire. Then I sent for Kaelan.By the time he arrived, Nessa had brought Eirian a mug of warm milk. I took it from her and helped Eirian drink, then covered her knees with a blanket.Eirian told us everything she had seen again. This time, she didn't cry. As she described the events, Kaelan's expression changed. His disbelief slowly gave way to anger. When she finished, he shook his

**Eirian’s Pov**"Again," Mira said. "This time, go slower. Don't chase the memory. Let it come to you."I sat cross-legged on a woven mat in the healer's cottage, with my palms facing upwards on my knees, with a candle burning between us. It was a light drizzle outside, and it tapped against the wooden shutters.It was the fourth day of our lessons, and my head was beginning to ache."I'm trying," I groaned."You're holding too much tension." Mira tapped my wrist lightly with two fingers. "Your hands are open, but your jaw is not. Unclench it."I breathed out, parted my teeth, and relaxed my shoulders."Better. Now, tell me what you feel.""I'm tired. I'm afraid." I paused, furrowing my brows. "It feels like something is pushing, like a hand on a door from the other side, trying to get in.""Good. That's your awakening. We don't have much time left, so we must prepare your mind to face it without being overwhelmed. It's all right to be afraid, but fear alone won't help you. Tell me w

**Vorath’s Pov**I woke to the smell of vinegar and the sound of two people arguing in low tones."He needs another day, Kaelan.""He won't agree to that, Old Bettin. You know him."I opened my eyes. The ceiling of the healer's wing came into focus: pale beams and lamplight, and a dull ache lay on my left shoulder as though someone had strapped a heavy stone to me.Kaelan stood at the foot of my cot, one arm in a sling, while Bettin faced him with her hands on her hips."I'm awake," I said, my voice sounding scraped.They both turned to me. Bettin sighed, while Kaelan's shoulders dropped half an inch. I caught the relief on his face, which he tried to hide with a grin."Look who's finally awake. Three days, my lord. You've been asleep for three whole days."My brows arched high. "Three days?""You lost a great deal of blood, and your body fought the herbs." Bettin held my wrist and counted my pulse. "Don't sit up."I sat up anyway. The room spun and then became stable. "Where is she?
Forced To The Beast Lycan King: His Plump Little Wolf Chapter 82: Victory At A Cost
**Eirian’s Pov**Dawn came over the fortress, revealing everything the night had hidden.I stood on one side of the courtyard with a blanket around my shoulders, watching as the warriors carried the dead into the long stone hall. They worked in silence. Nobody shouted or sang. The only sounds were their boots on the gravel.The whole place reeked of blood. So much had soaked into the stones that no amount of washing could remove the smell. Kaelan said forty-one of Vorath's people had died. Forty-one lives lost, with twice as many wounded.The southern wall was now gaping ruins, and the granary had burned to the ground.I knew some of the dead by name. The woman who had fallen by the gateway, beside her spilled basket, was called Marta. She was the one responsible for baking bread for the fortress."This is all because of me," I lamented sadly.I hadn't meant to say it aloud, but Lirien, who had not left my side since I returned from the healer's wing at sunrise, cut in. "No.""They
