ZAMORA'S POV

I shot to my feet, heart beating so hard I could hear it in my ears. My eyes darted around the room, scanning everywhere. Sweat formed on my forehead, but I forced myself to stay composed. If someone was in here, the last thing I wanted was for them to see fear on my face. No, I had to look in control. I had to feel in control, even if I wasn’t.

But the room looked empty. Just me and the silence from every corner.

“I don’t see anyone,” I told my wolf, squinting into the darkness, double-checking the corners, the edges, the gaps behind furniture. Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

“It’s not about what you see,” my wolf whispered in my mind . “They are hiding, using an invisibility spell. Focus. Listen to their heartbeat, their breathing, their scent. You are not alone.”

I felt fear take over me.

I shut my eyes and listened.

For a few seconds, there was only silence. But then I heard it. The faintest breath, it was controlled but there. A soft rustle of cloth. A scent that didn’

    ZAMORA'S POV"Let go of me, please," My voice was soft and weak. I had no choice but to beg for my life. I was desperate, just wanting to be free from the people who had kidnapped me.He laughed, ignoring my pleas. I could tell he enjoyed my suffering, the way I was begging to live. I couldn’t see his face, but there was something dark and evil in his voice.I heard his footsteps as he walked across the dry leaves on the forest floor, leaving me alone to die in the woods. Tears filled my eyes. I was alone, completely alone to face my misery. I gulped, trying to calm myself down and focus on escaping instead of giving in to fear.Suddenly, my stomach began to feel strange. At first, it was small, barely there. But then it got worse until I was holding my belly in pain.Was the wolfsbane already working this fast? Am I really going to lose the child growing inside me without ever getting the chance to meet it?I groaned in pain, hating my current situation. This was worse than anything

    ZAMORA'S POVHe is bluffing, isn’t he? He must be. There is no way he can break the bond between us. The queen herself said it was final, once sealed, it can’t be undone. So what is he talking about? What kind of madness is this? He found a way to break it? That’s impossible. Isn’t it?I kept my face still, my voice buried deep behind the calm mask I forced on. I stared at him, searching for a crack in his expression, some sign that he was lying. But he gave me nothing. There was a long silence between us.Finally, I spoke, trying to remain quiet and controlled.“What do you mean you will break the bond?”He didn’t answer right away. He leaned back, picked up his glass of wine, and took a slow sip, his eyes on mine the entire time. His stare was intimidating, like a predator sizing up its next move.“I don’t recall giving you permission to speak,” he said almost lazily.A chill crawled down my spine, but I held my ground.“You are going to break the bond,” I repeated, composed. “Knowi

    ZAMORA'S POVMy eyes opened slowly. At first, everything was blurry, but then a ray of sunlight hit my face through the gaps in the curtains. It was too bright. I flinched, shut my eyes again, and let out a small groan.Everything hurts.My body felt like it had been crushed. Every muscle was sore, and I didn’t understand why. I tried to move, but even that simple effort sent pain shooting through me.Why do I feel like this?What happened?I groaned again as I forced myself to sit up, but my head throbbed with every slight movement.“Are you alright, ma'am?” Larissa’s voice broke through the fog in my mind. She rushed to my side, her hands gently supporting me as I sat up straighter.There was so much worry in her voice. It was written all over her face too.“How do you feel, MY LADY?” she asked softly, her eyes searching mine.I didn’t answer right away. A sudden pain sliced through my head. I held it tightly and stayed still, breathing through the pain until it faded just enough to

    Vladimir’s povEverything was finally clicking. All the whispers, the sneaking around, the strange looks, it all made sense now. They had been hiding something from me this whole time, and I had been blind to it.But now, I could feel it. Smell it. Every inch of me knew, especially the dragon inside me. The scent was strong, it was my blood. Flowing through her veins.My blood.I slowly raised my head and stared into my mother’s eyes. She was trying to act calm, but I saw right through it. The fear in her eyes, the way her lip twitched, the slight shift in her stance, she was nervous. Scared. And that told me everything I needed to know.“You are imagining things, darling,” she said with a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes. “What do you mean, your blood?”I stood up, facing her fully now. My hands clenched at my sides, so tight I could feel my nails pressing into my skin.“A binding ritual,” I said slowly, my voice low and cold. “You bonded me to her, didn’t you?”She froze.That

    VLADIMIR'S POV The lady shook with fear, and had become a complete shadow of herself. Goosebumps had formed on her entire skin even as she had tears running down her cheeks.I didn't care after all. All I needed to know is where Zamora was, or a shadow of herself would be the best thing she ever became. I wasn't sure she knew how cruel I could be, else she wouldn't be playing such games with me. “Please sir… please don't kill me sir,” She pleaded, shivering. She looked like she was going to pass out anytime soon though. I was glad she knew I was going to kill her anyways, and with the way she was acting? Her death would happen much faster.“Answer me!!” I thundered, bringing the sword lower to her neck. I watched colors drain from her face at once. I could see her heart pounding recklessly against her chest even as she knelt before me.“I will speak sir. I will,” She spluttered, more tears falling from her eyes. “Lady Zamora had stepped out to see the queen mother.”Her words snappe
