Zoriven POV

She looked so peaceful, so far away from all the trouble and stress around.

This is the way she should be, this is the way she deserves to be.

I walked till the path ahead of me thickened beneath my feet as I carried her.

Seravyn kept breathing shallowly against my chest as her body looked limp but still felt warm.

Every now and then she would let out a soft whimper that twisted my inside deeply.

I kept my pace steady, careful not to shake her more than necessary.

    Zoriven's POV It was more like I couldn't escape him, almost like he had me in this perfect circle. Everything narrowed down to the figure up high.Caelrix was standing at the top of the slop, his sword shining against the brightening dawn light. He must have used the chaos happening around me to cut through the trees and take me by surprise as I didn't even sense him coming.I looked up at him, coughing as I tried to get up. That was some terrifying pace, clearly guessing my move smoothly.He didn't wait for me to recover fully though, he leaped down from the top, his heavy frame descending like a falling rock, his blade coming down with him between his both hands and aimed at me.I rolled to the right just in time. His sword sliced into the ground where my head had been, burying itself inches into the rocky soil. The sheer force of his miss sprayed dirt across my face, but I didn't let the distraction blind me. I surged upward from the ground as my energy returned, driving the sho

  • Marked By Pain, Crowned By Power   Chapter 81

    Zoriven’s POVThe thick column of black smoke rising from the way that led to the residential part of my Pack felt like a physical spike driven straight through my lungs. The distant, booming echo of the blast was still vibrating through the soles of my boots, kicking against the chaos breaking down here.My heart didn't just race, it slammed violently against my ribs with a cold, bone freezing dread that threatened to choke out every breath in my lungs.They weren't just hitting the gates. They were right inside.Seravyn. Her name roared through my mind, a desperate chant that completely drowned out every single plan or preparation I had done up till this point.I had spent weeks preparing. I had locked her away in her room, thinking the few guards and the senior army captains would keep her safe from any breach of the border. But from every indication, from everything I had in mind, the smoke is rising from the exact point where I remember her room to be. I have been played. I ha

  • Marked By Pain, Crowned By Power   Chapter 80

    Seravyn's POV "Move over," she muttered, dropping to her knees beside me and shoving her long hair into a tight, practical knot at the bottom of her neck. "I'm going first. If there's an ambush at the exit, I have a better chance at reacting quickly."I smiled and pushed out, letting her go first before joining. We wriggled through the narrow, dark metal path, the iron scraping against my shoulders as we crawled in absolute silence.Lirvae must have known the way as she navigated the short, horizontal run that led towards the outside drainage pipe at the back of the building. The air inside the pipe was suffocating, thick with old dust and the growing, heavy stench of smoke from the outside world.After what felt like an eternity, Lirvae slammed her boot against the pipe cover at the end of the line. The lid popped out with a dull thud, and she slid through the opening, dropping silently into the mud below. I followed a second later, my hands landing in the cold, damp earth as I pu

  • Marked By Pain, Crowned By Power   Chapter 79

    Seravyn’s POVThe shockwaves from the initial blast had barely settled before the true nightmare began. Outside, the air was suddenly ripped apart by a chorus of raw, agonizing screams.The desperate shouts of women and children crying around, screams and roars of Pack warriors, and the sharp, burning touch of follow up explosions tearing through the outer buildings. The violent, choking scent of burned iron and smoke slipped through the open spaces of the window frame, filling my lungs and turning my blood to absolute ice.My mind spun out of control, a heavy mix of panic rushing through my veins as my veins plopped wildly. They are inside now, Caelrix’s men aren't just testing the borders any longer, they are tearing through the heart of the Pack. But as the screams of terrified women and children echoed from the close by paths, the fear inside me that held me down began to shift. It twisted, hardening into a sharp, cold thought.I can't just sit here. It's enough I had to sit her

  • Marked By Pain, Crowned By Power   Chapter 78

    Seravyn’s POVThe heavy wooden door of the guest suite didn't just close, it felt like a prison gate locking me away from the world. From the gap at the bottom of the door, I could see the shadows of two large Delta warriors moving into position on the porch, their weapons swinging at their side and their postures rigid. The craziest part? They aren't here to protect me from the Moon Stone Pack warriors, they are here to keep me from stepping a single foot past the threshold! Unbelievable.I paced the length of the room, my boots clicking against the floor, a sharp, restless energy vibrating under my skin. My hands were balled into tight fists at my sides. I can't believe Zoriven had used his authority to pin me down.He had ordered his guards to treat me like a piece of fragile cargo that needed to be locked away in a vault just for his selfish reason. It made my stomach twist with a toxic mixture as my blood boiled but my wolf pushed at the edge.He had roared at me with everyth

  • Marked By Pain, Crowned By Power   Chapter 77

    Zoriven's POV I jumped to my feet so fast my chair rattled against the stone floor, my instincts flaring instantly as my mind moved fast. "Get the men to the secondary lines! Tell Kaelen to authorize the silver traps!"Beside me, Seravyn stood up as well, her eyes wide, what had been a cold mask over her face shattered into instant panic. "I'm coming with you.""No, you're not," I said, turning on her, my voice rising heavily in command. I stepped into her path, blocking her way towards the door. "You are the target of this entire raid, Seravyn. Walking out to that wall is giving him exactly what he wants.""He is tearing your walls down because of me, Zoriven!" She shot back, her voice rising as she tried to push past my shoulder. "I am not going to sit in this room like a coward while your warriors die on the riverbank! Let me go! I can face him!""You can't face hundreds of heavy armor raiders!" I roared, grabbing her upper arms, my grip tight and firm as I forced her to stay put

    Seravyn’s POVThe question lingered between us for far too long.I couldn't possibly answer that, but couldn't possibly avoid thinking about it either.I swallowed hard as my heart pounded loudly in my ears, but not with fear this time…But something far more dangerous.For once since I walked away

  • Marked By Pain, Crowned By Power   Chapter 37

    Seravyn's POVThe wind had gone still.That was the first thing I noticed.Not the trees. Not the ache still clawing through my chest. Not even the lingering tension that followed me like a shadow since I walked away from the dining table.The whole space had gone quiet. Too quiet.My breathing slo

    Zoriven POVCaelrix.My jaw tightened. The memory of our last encounter — the raw confrontation, the barely contained violence in the clearing — flashed through my mind.I barely let myself lose control like that, I always try to keep things calm, play it cool, stay levelheaded.But that day, seein

    Seravyn's POVThe metal bounced once on the plate before settling, but the sound felt deafening in the sudden silence at the table. But I barely heard it.My face burned hot as I stared at Lirvae, my mind spiraling wildly out of control as the only sound ringing in my ears was the sound of her las
