Elara Veyne

When I finally arrived, one of the guards opened the door without argument.

The other kept looking at me as though he still intended to figure out how I had tricked him on the first night.

I just gave him a slightly awkward smile and went inside.

“You’re late.”

The voice came before I could locate Kian.

I let out a slightly irritated sigh, pushed the cart inside, and closed the door right after.

When I turned around, I stopped.

Kian was standing in front of a tall mirror near the wa

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 59 — Too Close

    Elara VeyneThen Kian pulled me aside.Everything happened too quickly.He crossed the narrow space between two buildings, taking me with him.It was little more than a passage used for ventilation and perhaps storage. Boxes were stacked against one wall, leaving barely enough room for two people to squeeze through.Two normal people.Kian was not a normal-sized person.My back hit the wall, and he stopped in front of me.Close...Far too close.His chest brushed mine with every breath.One of his hands remained around my waist while the other pressed against the wall beside my head.I felt his heat immediately, and once again found myself thinking about how ridiculous the amount of heat that man produced was.The voices of the patrol drew closer.Kian turned his face toward the street.Then I saw his eyes, red.Not a faint glow this time.They were truly red.“Shit...”He looked at me.“What?”“Your eyes.”His jaw tightened.A voice sounded just outside the passage.They were much too

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 58 — She’s With Me

    Elara VeyneWhen Harun said night market, my mind immediately imagined some particularly suspicious gathering of criminals hidden inside dark tents.I was wrong.Very wrong.As night fell, Namarra seemed to finally decide to truly wake up.During the day, the heat made the streets feel heavy. People moved quickly between shadows, awnings, and buildings, trying to stay out of the sun whenever possible.Once it disappeared behind the walls, everything changed.The southern market stretched across several wide streets, illuminated by dozens of lanterns hanging between the buildings. Colorful fabrics swayed above the stalls, shielding merchants and merchandise from the heat that still rose from the stones. The scent of ripe fruit mixed with roasted meat, spices, sweet oils, and some strong drink a man was serving in small metal cups.There was music somewhere, but I couldn’t figure out where it was coming from.Maybe because there were simply too many people.Humans walked beside lupines.

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 57 — A Man Named Rashid

    Elara Veyne"So the two of you went out together to handle palace matters, a man decided to follow you, and for some reason, tried to kill you.""That sums it up pretty well.""And you don't know who he was.""No.""Or who sent him?""No, Harun.""Or why?"I took a sip."Harun, I would really appreciate it if you stopped organizing my problems like that. They seem bigger and worse when you put them all together."He released a long sigh."Because apparently they are..."Unfortunately, there was no argument against that.Harun drank some of his own tea, thoughtful."What did this man look like?"This time, I answered without lying, describing what I remembered.The simple clothes, the human appearance that didn't entirely fit Namarra, the knife.The way he had followed me through several streets without ever trying to speak to me.Harun continued, asking more specific questions.Height, accent. Whether the man had any marks, how he walked.Kian interrupted twice, adding details I hadn'

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 56 — A Convenient Lie

    Elara Veyne"So tell me, Elara. What exactly did you do to make someone decide they needed to kill you?"Harun's question settled in the middle of the table along with the scent of freshly poured tea.I stared at the dark liquid inside my cup.It was an excellent question.The problem was that the full answer would probably begin with I'm secretly treating the Crown Prince of Azhareth in exchange for access to the Nythrium mines and end with something involving poisoning, hidden documents, a suspicious queen, and a feral lupine who had apparently developed the habit of trying to kill anyone who threatened me.Maybe that was too much information to accompany tea.I lifted my eyes to Harun, and he was waiting.Kian remained seated beside me, silent.I could tell him the truth.Harun already knew parts of me that almost no one else in this kingdom knew. He knew about Edda, knew I had contacts in Aldervane, knew I wasn't exactly the innocent servant I pretended to be inside the palace.Bu

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 55 — Too Many Questions

    Elara Veyne“Yes.”That was strange.From what little I had seen of their relationship, Mireya didn’t seem like the kind of person who showed up in Kian’s chambers before dawn to make casual conversation.“What did she want?”Kian rested his forearms on his legs and leaned slightly forward.“She knew you were leaving.”“But you told the household I was taking the day off, right?”“Yes... but that wasn’t what concerned me.”I stayed quiet.His eyes met mine.“She said people are asking questions about my recovery.”My stomach turned cold.Kian continued.“And some of them have already connected you to it.”For a moment, I wasn’t sure I had understood him correctly.“They connected your recovery to me?”“Yes.”“How?”“She didn’t explain.”Tension returned to my shoulders, and before I realized it, I had turned my entire body toward Kian.Mireya...The Queen knew I was connected to Kian’s recovery.How much did she know?Did she know about the treatments?My blessing?The residue?What I

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 54 — Guard Dog

    Elara VeyneI stared at the letter for far too long.The words remained there, perfectly still, as though they hadn’t just torn something apart inside me.Another girl.Another... child.Another girl leaving through the back of the Church of the First Light, believing she had been chosen for a better life.I closed my eyes for a moment and forced air into my lungs.Enough.I could cry later.I could spend the entire night wondering what had happened to the girl with the braids, how many times she had begged for help, and whether there was anything I could have done differently.But there was another girl now.And this one, I could still save.That thought was enough to make something inside me fall back into place.I wiped my face, rubbing the tears away harder than necessary.I hadn’t wanted Harun to see that.Much less Kian.Maybe I should have opened the letter somewhere else. In a closed room, perhaps, alone.Far away from anyone who could watch me completely lose control because o
