“You have until moonset,” Alpha Weston said. “Then the whole pack goes in front of the Council with one story. Yours.”
“That is not what I asked for, Father.”
“It is what you will get.”

From Cast-Off Daughter to Lycan Queen Chapter 51: The Hall of Judgment
Julian's POV“Stop moving, Highness,” Raven said. “You'll smudge it.”“You are covered in me. I can still smell him.”“I'm covered in you from the shoulders down. Hold still.”I held still. It was the hardest thing I had done all morning, and I had been awake for twenty minutes.She was sitting on the edge of the washstand with her hair half pinned and her hands in my collar, and I stood between her knees with my forehead against hers. The sun had cleared the east tower. In two hours I would walk into the Hall of Judgment and face the man who had taught me to ride.All I could think about was the faint, sour, intolerable ghost of another man's breath along the side of her throat.“Julian.”“I know. I know.” My voice came out rough. “It is a thing the wolf does. It's instinct. It means nothing.”“It means something.”“It means he is a fool.” My hands found her waist. “He is a fool, and I am a jealous idiot, and the wolf wants to roll you in my shirts until you smell like nothing else.”

Michael's POV“You left her,” Emilia had said.I could still hear it. Not shouted. Said quietly, from the pillows, with Rowan asleep on her chest and the sky just starting to gray. She had watched me pull on my coat, and she had not asked where I was going.“I'll be back before noon.”“You said you'd stay.”“Emilia...”“I know where you're going, Michael.” She turned her face to the window. “Go. Just don't tell me it's for me.”I rode four hours through the dark with those words in my ears and the palace road unrolling under my horse. Every mile, I told myself the same thing. I

“Sit down before you fall down.”“I am perfectly steady.”“You're gray, Julian.”“A fine color. Very regal.”I pushed him onto the edge of the bed with both hands on his chest, and he went, because his legs gave out about a second after he stopped arguing. The door behind us had been locked from the outside for three hours. Two guards stood in the corridor. Neither would meet my eyes when they brought the tray.It was a good room. That was the insult of it. Tall windows, a hearth, silk curtains in the royal blue, a bed wide enough to sleep four. Aldric had put us in the prince's own suite, because a cage that looks like home is the kind

Michael's POV“You have until moonset,” Alpha Weston said. “Then the whole pack goes in front of the Council with one story. Yours.”“That is not what I asked for, Father.”“It is what you will get.”I stood at the end of the long table in the Whitefang council hall with my palms pressed to the wood. Beta Callahan sat across from me, stone-faced. My mother sat at the far end in her black shawl, very straight, not looking at anyone. The windows behind my father had already gone dark purple with evening.Raven's three terms lay in the middle of the table where Callahan had set them down that morning, in neat brown ink.One. Michael confesses aloud,

“Don't let go of him,” Julian said.“I won't.”My palms were slick with sweat on the King's chest, and the silver light pulsing out of them had begun to flicker. Every time it dimmed, the black lines at his throat crept up another fraction. Every time I pushed harder, something behind my eyes tore.Around us the hall had gone to war without drawing a single blade.Aldric stood at the foot of the dais with his empty hand still raised. The eastern prince had planted himself in the aisle with his arms folded, and twelve silver-clad wolves ringed the room behind him. Damon and Nathan had closed in on our flank. The royal guards stood in the middle of all of it, swords half raised, waiting for someone to tell them whom to obey.“A foreign prince does not command the guard of this crown,” Aldric said evenly.“I do not command it,” said the eastern prince. “I merely observe that your guards are looking at the one man in this room who is not shouting.” He glanced toward the dais. “That would b

Julian's POV“Kneel, Highness.”The Warden of the Rite held the silver cup out with both hands, and the whole hall of the Blood Moon leaned toward me like a field bending in wind.I stood in the pool of moonlight at the center of the dais. Raven stood three paces behind me, where the rules said a mate may stand. I could feel her at my back like a second heartbeat.The King had already taken his own goblet. I had watched him drink it, the old man's throat working, his eyes closed. Now he sat slumped on the throne with his chin low and his sleeve pulled carefully back over his arm.“The cup of the Blood Moon,” the Warden intoned. “Drunk by every heir since the first, to bind the wolf to the crown.”The cup was full of amber liquid. Gold-sealed. Honey and valerian and wet iron.I knew that smell the way I knew my own name. My mouth watered. My wolf lifted his head, bewildered, and for one terrible second I wanted it.Raven's fingers brushed my back. Barely a touch. It was enough.“Tell me
