HER PAIN HIS PUNISHMENT.

The world returned in pieces light too bright, pain too loud.

Octavia blinked slowly, her vision unfocused.

She was no longer in the courtyard.

Soft sheets cradled her aching body. The scent of healing herbs filled the air. Gentle fingers dabbed at her brow with a cloth.

Astra.

Tears clung to her lashes as she gripped Octavia’s hand like a lifeline.

“You shouldn’t have been there,” she whispered. “You’re not ready for that kind of cruelty.”

Octavia couldn’t answer. Her throat was too dry. Her chest too broken.

She didn’t understand why.

Why he hated her.

Why the world she’d been forced into kept trying to hollow her out.

All she knew was that she wanted to go home.

But there was no home left to return to.

Not anymore.

Tears rolled down her eyes,fast into her pillow as she laid there eyes closed, she felt a burning pain on her chest and was trying hard not to scream because her throat was already too dry.

  • MOONBOUND THE ALPHA'S FLAME    CHAPTER 34

    BENEATH THE SURFACE OCTAVIA’S POVI felt warmth behind me from my mate's touch.Xavier’s arms wrapped around me from behind, firm yet gentle, his chest against my back. He didn’t say anything again .Just held me there in the quiet hum of the night while my body trembled against his. I wanted to be strong. I wanted to stop the shaking. But I couldn’t.My chest heaved, lungs drawing in ragged breaths as if I’d just escaped drowning. Sweat clung to my skin, and my fingers ached from how tightly I’d clenched them in my sleep.But I hadn’t escaped anything.“You’re safe,” he said, his voice low and rough. “No one’s going to hurt you.”I wanted to believe him. Gods, I wanted to.But the dream clung to me like cobwebs in my lungs,thick, choking, lingering. It hadn’t been just a dream. I knew that now. It had felt too sharp, too real. The screams. The blood. The betrayal.His hand rubbed slow circles against my back. The rhythm was steady. Soothing. My breathing matched it eventually

    Chapter: Whispers in the Dark The fire crackled in the war chamber, casting flickering shadows on the stone walls. Alpha Xavier stood at the head of the long table, flanked by Kemer and two of his most trusted guards. They’d been reviewing border patrol reports and reinforcing rogue defenses, but his mind was restless something felt off. A sharp knock. A young warrior entered, his face pale with unease. “Alpha there’s news from the dungeons.” Xavier’s brows knit. “Speak.” The guard hesitated. “Mira. She’s dead, Alpha.” The room fell still. “She was poisoned,” the warrior added quietly. “she died since,we thought she was sleeping . Her body is cold now.” Xavier’s jaw tightened. “Who gave her food?” “No one claims to have,” the warrior replied. “The guards deny it. There are no records of visitors after your command.” A slow, cold rage crept into Xavier’s bones. Someone had snuck past his orders. Someone had silenced Mira. “There’s a traitor in this palace,” he said darkly

  • MOONBOUND THE ALPHA'S FLAME    CHAPTER 32

    A THIN THREAD OF TRUSTOctavia’s limbs ached with exhaustion as she reached her chamber, Kemmer’s footsteps fading down the corridor. The scent of damp stone clung to her even in the warmth of her room. She hadn’t meant to wander so far hadn’t expected the maze of halls to twist so endlessly. Her mind was clouded with thoughts she couldn't untangle.She slumped onto her bed without even changing. The silence in the room was heavy, but comforting. Safe.A sharp knock.Before she could respond, the door opened.Alpha Xavier stepped in.Tall. Imposing. His dark cloak clung to him like the night itself. His eyes locked on her, unreadable as always but this time, there was something tight in his jaw, something colder than usual in the way he looked at her.“you are awake?” he asked.“yes I just got in” she said quietly, sitting up.He crossed the room, stopping a few feet away. He didn’t sit. Didn’t soften.“There are too many risks around this palace right now,” Xavier said, his voice de

    SHADOWS IN THE DUNGEON The stone walls of the dungeon echoed with Mira’s screams.“Please Mercy, I swear, I didn’t mean to!” she cried, her voice cracking as two of the palace guard stood there watching the prisoners in the dungeon. Her eyes darted around wildly, seeking even a shred of compassion on their cold faces. But there was none.They opened a rusted iron door and flung her into the small, dank cell from where she was tortured.She fell hard onto the stone floor, the air knocked out of her lungs. The door slammed shut behind her with a deafening clang that echoed like a death sentence.“Alpha’s orders,” one guard grunted. “No food. No water. Three days.”Then silence.Mira crawled to the corner of the cell, her body trembling as she curled into herself. Her cries faded into whimpers. How had it all gone so wrong? She had been promised safety, status even gold, if she played her part. All she had to do was slip poison into the Luna's drink, just one vial. One tiny act of b

  • MOONBOUND THE ALPHA'S FLAME    CHAPTER 30

    TEARS OF A LUNAThe sounds of battle had faded into an eerie silence. Only the distant crackle of torches remained, and the soft moans of the wounded carried through the shattered hall like a haunting lullaby.Octavia sat at the edge of her bed, arms wrapped tightly around her midsection as if holding herself together. Her gown once pristine was now splattered with blood that wasn’t hers. She couldn’t stop trembling.Not from cold, but from everything.The bond hummed inside her still, raw and new a constant pull toward Xavier, a magnetic ache in her chest. She couldn’t bring herself to move. Her legs felt like stone. Her heartbeat echoed in her ears, too loud, too fast.Her mating ceremony had turned into a massacre.A poisoned goblet. A rogue ambush. The blood of strangers staining the sacred floor.She pressed a hand to her neck, fingers grazing the fresh mark. It throbbed slightly, both tender and warm an intimate brand of belonging.But instead of comfort, guilt bloomed in her

  • MOONBOUND THE ALPHA'S FLAME    CHAPTER 29

    THE ATTACK They stood beneath the vaulted ceiling of the Lycarra grand hall, two figures bathed in torchlight and destiny.Alpha Xavier stood tall and composed, though his jaw clenched beneath the weight of emotion. His broad frame was draped in ceremonial black leathers, his crimson sash a slash of color against the dark. His eyes were fixed only on the woman before him.Octavia.She stood opposite him, luminous in her midnight blue gown, the fabric catching the light like stars caught in silk. Her hands trembled slightly at her sides, not from fear but from the magnitude of the moment. Her eyes, wide and solemn, met Xavier’s with both courage and quiet vulnerability.The hall fell silent.The Elder stepped forward, robes whispering against the polished stone floor as he raised his staff high."Octavia of the Lost Bloodline," he intoned, his voice echoing, "do you accept Xavier of House Lycarra as your mate, your Alpha, your protector?"Octavia’s throat tightened, but she did
