Lira's POV

As I placed my hand on the skeleton of Carlos's master, a sharp, immediate pain shot through my legs and hands. It was intense, a burning, twisting sensation that made me want to pull away immediately. At one point, I couldn’t feel my hands at all. My legs felt like they didn’t belong to me, and it was almost impossible to stay connected. But I forced myself to push a little further. I tried to drift, like I always would during a spiritual connection, but it wasn’t working.

  • Marked by my father's enemy alpha    Road to finding answer

    Lira's POV My brain went cold. I ran out of words to say although I hadn't said anything yet. Damien’s eyes stayed fixed on mine, but my focus had already shifted.It was not on him anymore. I was trying to find Almira's heartbeat, faintly coming from beneath the carriage. I said a quiet prayer to myself with hope that he wouldn't hear it too. But deep down, that hope felt useless. If the sound was clear enough to notice, then he would hear it too.He outranked me in every way.Before any plan could form, his gaze shifted. It moved to the exact spot where she was hiding. Then it returned, and a small smile appeared on his face.“I have known she was there since we left the Ashen lands,” he said calmly.The breath caught in my throat.He leaned closer.“You can come out now, Almira.”For a moment, there was no movement.Then slowly, she crawled out from beneath the carriage and stepped forward. Her eyes moved between us as she scratched her head.“Um… we just… we had to,” she said, he

  • Marked by my father's enemy alpha    Between Ashen and the land beyond

    Lira's POV It was strange for the Moonblessed to hold a feast. Back then, it was never something they did. So if it was happening now, it could only mean one thing. Their numbers had grown, and they finally had a reason to celebrate.It would not be surprising if wolves from smaller packs had joined them out of fear.Silence settled around Damien as he stood before the Tarlock wolves. From inside the carriage, their expressions were clear. Calm and Unafraid.That alone made me uneasy.There was a time when no one would dare stand like that in front of him. Not when the Blackthorne name still carried weight. Back then, they would have bowed or stayed far away.But things were different now.Without warning, one of them pulled out a dagger. The other followed with a sword.“You know we cannot let you pass,” one of them said. “There is a bounty on your head.”He paused and sniffed the air.“There are others with you,” he continued. “Different scents. Not all of them are Blackthorne.”A

  • Marked by my father's enemy alpha    Territorial claims

    Lira's POV That was the first time I stepped out of the Ashen lands, and everything felt different.I had breathed the air there for so long that I had forgotten what the outside world felt like, what it even smelled like.The difference was clear the moment we left. The air was heavier, rougher, and not as calm as what I was used to.We had been travelling on a rocky road for about two days. The journey was slow and tiring, and we had barely made any real progress.Even after all that time, we were still far from the small villages and settlements ahead.I turned to look at Damien. His face seemed different, changing more with each passing day.The tension from our earlier argument was still there, heavy between us.bI had told him we should not take this journey, but he had already made up his mind. For the first time in a long while, I could not change it.My gaze dropped to my legs.I knew what I had to do to fix them. I knew there was a way.But it all came down to one thing.Was

  • Marked by my father's enemy alpha    Three days or forever

    Lira's POV The fact that they were siblings made everything worse. What was my excuse now? Even if I lied, I knew Carlos would not support it.Almira’s eyes stayed on me as I looked up at her. I was still trying to find the right words when Carlos spoke.“Why the awkward silence?” he asked, looking between all of us.“Oh, that’s just a nickname,” I said quickly, feeling a lump in my throat. It was a terrible answer, but it was already out, so I had to continue with it. I took a breath and noticed Almira still had not said anything.“That is one of the reasons Carlos is so fond of me,” I added, hoping he would play along.“He has been insisting that I try to communicate with the master,” I continued, hoping that would help my case.Carlos stayed quiet for a moment, then smiled.“We all know daughters of the moon are not as powerful as they used to be. I don’t think they still exist.”As soon as I heard that, I knew I had convinced him, but I also knew what it meant.“Alpha Damien is w

  • Marked by my father's enemy alpha    Orchal's choice

    Lira's POV I looked at him, waiting for him to speak again, but he stayed quiet.“You said you came here for a cure for spinal injuries?” he asked, tilting his head.“What truth were you talking about?” I asked. “You are avoiding my question.”I watched as his body slowly went stiff again, just like it was before I touched him.“I only have a few seconds,” he said. “There are flowers that grow at the edge of a lake in the northern part of the Ashen lands. They are red. Find them and take them.”“How do you know I am the one who needs the cure?” I asked.He forced his head up one last time.“The ones you are drawing power from are calling you back,” he said. “You would not need them if you could walk. You can find me again when you are better. That is when you will be ready for the truth.”I reached out to him, but before I could touch anything, something pulled me back.The next moment, I was in the room again, sitting in the circle with the others.They all gasped as they returned,

  • Marked by my father's enemy alpha    The vines of dark magic

    Lira's POV I looked around Damien’s den, trying to understand how it was even possible. The place was built with concrete and sat at the base of the courtyard, close to the tunnels. It was hard to believe that the room I was standing in had once been covered in green plants and bushes.“Are you su

    Lira's POV I took her hand at once and pulled myself to my feet. In the same breath, the world shifted. We were no longer in the fog. We were back in the council chamber in the Moonblessed lands.“I’m here to continue from where Naomi stopped,” she said.My heart began to race. “Where is Naomi? Wh

    Lira's POV“Wake up,” a loud voice echoed. I opened my eyes and found myself in a large room covered in a thick fog. I looked down and realised that my hands were restrained. I thought there was no one else in the room with me until I turned around. Divine was standing behind me, her eyes gleaming

    Damien's POV I stood there, my eyes moving from Lord Marco to Lyra. She was still unconscious. Lord Marco stepped closer and placed his hand on her neck, then on her wrist.“She’s still breathing,” he said. “But she’s in a trance. The vision bearers can tend to her.”I barely listened. I moved cl
