His Human Second Chance Mate What is going on?
DAVIESTwo months.It had been two months since the northern cliff swallowed Lenora whole, and yet the silence she left behind had not faded. If anything, it had grown louder, pressing against the walls of the estate, settling into the spaces she used to occupy like a ghost that refused to leave.I stood by the balcony of my study, fingers curled tightly around the cold railing, my gaze fixed on the training grounds below. Warriors moved in formation, their movements sharp, disciplined, alive. Life continued. It always did.But something was off.It wasn’t the pack. It wasn’t the routines or the responsibilities or even the lingering tension that followed the announcement of her sacrifice.It was… her.Eleanor.At first, I had dismissed it. Grief had a way of distorting perception, twisting thoughts into things that didn’t quite make sense. Losing Lenora—no, not losing, driving her to that point—had left a crack in me I didn’t know how to fix. And maybe, just maybe, that crack was mak

LENORADinner arrived faster than I expected.The dining hall had changed again—this time quieter, more formal, with fewer attendants and more structured seating. The air carried the scent of roasted herbs and spiced broth, warm but restrained, like even the atmosphere had learned not to overstep.I moved through it carefully, tray in hand, following Heather’s quiet instructions.Imogen handled the kitchen end. Heather assisted the service line.We didn’t speak much. Not until I stepped into the hall fully.Orion was already seated.Eagen sat a short distance away, posture relaxed but attentive. Sebastian was there too, leaning back slightly in his chair like he had no intention of behaving politely for long. And Xarian sat at the center of it all, composed as ever, hands folded neatly, gaze steady.Her mother, Cathy, sat beside her.She noticed me immediately. Her eyes narrowed briefly before shifting away, as if I were already beneath her interest.I set the dishes down carefully, o

LENORAThe porcelain shards scattered across the stone floor caught the light in fractured, mocking pieces.For a moment, I just stood there, tray still tilted in my hands, staring at what I had done. The silence around me felt thick again, like the world had paused to watch me fail in real time. My fingers tightened instinctively around the empty edges of the tray, but it didn’t matter anymore. The damage was already done.“Great,” I muttered under my breath, voice barely steady. “Just great.”“Move.”The command cut through the air behind me so sharply that my entire body stiffened.I didn’t turn immediately. I already knew that voice. Still, when I finally looked over my shoulder, my stomach tightened on instinct.Orion stood a few steps away.He wasn’t wearing the formal council tone or expression I had seen in the chamber. Here, he looked more grounded, more real, though no less intimidating. His gaze dropped briefly to the shattered mess at my feet before returning to my face, u

LENORAThe silence after Xarian’s mother spoke my name did not break immediately. It stretched in a way that made the air feel heavier, as though the room itself had decided to hold its breath. Even Xarian did not move at first. Her gaze stayed fixed on me, steady and unblinking, and something about the way she looked made me feel as though she had already started piecing things together long before anyone had said anything aloud.Her mother, however, reacted differently. Disgust shifted across her face with slow clarity, turning into something sharper and more offended, as if my presence alone had become an inconvenience she had not consented to.“So you’re the one,” Xarian said at last, her tone even, almost conversational, as though she were confirming something mildly interesting rather than addressing a person whose name had already become infamous in court circles.My fingers tightened instinctively at my sides as I tried to steady myself. I did not answer immediately because I

LENORAHeather tried to stop me twice before I even reached the serving trays.Once with her hand on my wrist, gentle but firm, and once with her voice soft, almost pleading, like she could talk me out of what was already happening.“Lenora,” she said quietly, stepping into my path as I adjusted the tray of snacks in my hands. “You don’t have to do this alone. I can ask someone else to.”“I have to do it,” I replied before she could finish.Her brows pulled together. “No, you don’t. This isn’t a punishment detail.”I tightened my grip on the tray slightly, forcing my fingers to stop trembling. “It’s a request from the council,” I said flatly. “Refusing it would only make things worse.”Heather exhaled slowly, frustration flickering across her face. “It’s not a request, it’s a test.”“I know.”“No,” she insisted, softer now, stepping closer again. “You don’t. You think this is about serving her, but it’s not. Xarian’s family doesn’t operate like that. They—”“I don’t care how they oper

LENORAThe corridor outside the council chamber felt longer than it had any right to be.Each step I took echoed softly against the polished stone, swallowed almost immediately by the hush that followed us out of the chamber doors. Heather kept a steady hold on my arm, her grip firm but careful, like she was afraid I might crumble if she loosened it even slightly. Imogen walked on my other side, her presence quieter, more measured, but no less protective.No one spoke at first.Not until the heavy doors shut behind us with a dull finality that made my chest tighten in reflex, as if the sound itself had sealed something irreversible inside me.Heather exhaled slowly, then pulled me gently toward a side corridor. “Let’s get you somewhere quieter,” she said softly, her voice strained with concern. “Away from them.”I nodded once, though I wasn’t sure what I was agreeing to.My body followed without protest, but my mind lagged behind, still trapped in that chamber, still hearing the echo
