CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT

*

*

Over the next couple of weeks, Rene's health slowly returns under the care of Amala.

After that first night, he woke up only a handful of times. When he did, it wasn’t for very long, and he didn’t speak. Oftentimes, he would just stare blankly into space and cry grievously.

Kai came to visit frequently, and today, even Haesir accompanies him; Rene looks behind them, and his expression becomes sullen with disappointment.

Lyrien still hasn't come to see him. Not even once. Rene has been unconscious but he knows this.

Kai, seeing Rene's depressed eyes, shares a conflicted glance with Haesir.

"Lyrien was badly poisoned during the fight, I'm sure he doesn't want to worsen your situation by coming here,"

Rene's face remains blank, unmoved by Kai's words.

Kai sighs aloud, watching Rene suffer in despair consumes his mind with sorrow, not knowing how to pull Rene out of this dark state is eating his heart alive.

Rene closes his eyes again and Kai pats his cold hand

    CHAPTER FORTY-NINE * * Several days ago, beneath the angry sky that grumbles ominously, Lyrien had passed the judgment to Horden. Alive but severely wounded, Horden was chained to the large pillar at the centre of the clan, completely surrounded by warriors who must bear witness according to the laws. "You exiled me for an omega of the enemy clan... I merely wanted justice, I don't regret it!" Horden spitted out the blood to Lyrien's feet. "I see," Lyrien said in an emotionally detached voice, there was an almost absent glint in his eyes, a blank remote stare as though his mind was elsewhere. Without further warning, he smashed the dagger into the soft flesh of Horden's nape and twisted cruelly. Horden jerked against the chains holding him up, his screams of pain echoing in the air even as the darkened grey clouds above thundered with a cry that led to the heavy downpour of rain. Lyrien yanked the dagger out swiftly, blood rushing to the surface and spilling down Horden's

    CHAPTER FIFTY **Rene bites his lip, uncertainty filtering across his face. He has been standing outside Lyrien's hut for a few minutes and just like the night before, he is too anxious to enter. He can hear Lyrien's voice, not just his, Yara's too.Rene pushes the door open without knocking. “Lyr—” His words cut off immediately, and his mouth drops open in shock as his eyes trail down to their stark nakedness.His eyes shift from Yara to Lyrien's, and a wave of queasiness washes over him. Rene flees outside, slamming the door shut. His eyes burn hotly with tears, a dull ache twirling in his chest. He hadn't been able to get any sleep after not talking to Lyrien, he had been a coward last night and had decided to try again early this morning. Sudden anger courses through him.Rene's spine stiffens like steel, anger flushing through his cheeks as he turns back around and barges into the hut once again, but at the same time, Lyrien drags it open, his tall frame blocking Rene's pat

    CHAPTER FIFTY ONE**"You need to give him some space and allow him to come back to you on his own, he lost the child and then caught you cheating, honestly you deserve to be miserable,"Lyrien scowls deeply at the omega glaring up at him, his ears are already filled with Kai's consistent jabs, but from what he has seen so far, Rene has no intent of forgiving. . . Or forgetting. Rene has bluntly refused to communicate with him and Lyrien has no choice but to seek help from Kai to know Rene's thoughts, but the omega is not helping at all. "Don't expect him to return to you willingly. If it was Rene who had sex with another male, would you be so lenient on him?" Kai scoffs at Lyrien's murderous expression. The mere thought of Rene with another male is enough to make Lyrien want to kill the imaginary lover that would dare touch his mate."I did not call you here to utter nonsenses. If you cannot help, then seal your mouth!" Irritation gets the better of Lyrien and Haesir drags his m

    CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO**Lyrien recoils, his eyes filling with dreadful ice. Pregnant. Yara's words burn through Rene's ears like a harsh slap; it snaps him back to reality. Lyrien certainly didn't waste much time to get this female with his child!"You are lying!" The surge of anger that Lyrien feels is tempered by a growing sense of unease gnawing and seizing him as he gazes at Rene, who seems to have withdrawn into himself; the golden flecks in his eyes are now dim with hurtful tears. Rene perceives the whiff of Yara's scent as a Beta; she didn't possess a phenomenal scent before, but now, he can perceive the faint smell of it. A scent very similar to Lyrien's. One that cannot be mistaken."It's true, you can ask the healer to test my pheromones, I'm pregnant with your child. I cannot lie to you about something as serious as this!" Yara says fervently, and then she beams with a triumphant smile, her palms cradling her belly. "This calls for a celebration, it's the goddess's bless

    CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE**It's been too fucking long.The fierce craving takes hold of his senses, leaving him with intense lust and as his glazed gaze roams Rene's tempting features, a pool of saliva gathers in Lyrien's mouth from his drooling canines. His breaths becomes more laboured, gasping out in uncontrolled pants. His mate shouldn't look so eatable, or one day Lyrien fears he may just swallow him up. The fresh scent of panic and fearful pheromones oozing from his omega causes Lyrien's cock to jerk, spurting more fluid. With a savage snarl, he yanks Rene's arms. "Hold me tight, calm down the beast that is about to claim you or I won't be able to control myself. I will fuck you into oblivion," He throatily rasps. Rene finds himself holding tightly onto Lyrien, even though he strongly knows it will do nothing. Lyrien doesn't enter Rene; instead, he pulls the cover above them and then buries his face into Rene's neck, his arousal from his now-turned purplish cock continuing to

    CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR * * "Lyrien?” Haesir takes a quick intake of breath, watching his cousin's broad back as he crouches against the mud, the trees, dead wood and branches surrounding them. For the first time, Haesir looks doubtful, uncertain about how to speak the words aloud, but then again, he is certain that Lyrien already knows it, too. Yet the warrior has not spoken a word since dawn and now, it's nearly dusk. "Looks like your mate left intentionally," Lyrien's back muscle stiffens, and his brow knits into a brooding stare; the imprints of horseshoes on the soil end in this particular spot, the rest of it completely washed by the rain. Slowly, he turns and meets Haesir's gaze, he looks ready to kill. His eyes are bloodshot and red at the rim, and several wet strands of hair have fallen across his face, giving him the semblance of a deadly predator even as he blows out chill air through his nostril. Without a word, Lyrien climbs and fastens his horse, leaving the group

    CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE * * A MONTH AND HALF LATER Sighing tiredly, Rene swipes the back of his arm against the sweat on his brow, as he glares against the sun. “Why must you be so hot?” He mutters to himself. It is a particularly hot day. The sun is bright and shining down on them all, and the few times they are lucky enough to feel a breeze, it is still warm, not soothing at all. “It's not that bad, I think you both are already used to living near the ocean," Tyr replies. "Look, I already got my basket filled with herbs, we should leave before you catch a heat stroke again, you know you get sick easily," Rene turns at the sound of Soral's voice, and his lips pucker in a pout. "I'm not that fragile!" He grumbles but Soral merely snorts in disbelief. Rene's empty herb basket is proof that his presence is only to offer emotional support. The trio walk down to the foot of the mountains, and the small village comes into view; they enter the shabby tiny hut which has become their ho

    CHAPTER FIFTY-SIX**"Rene. . .?" Rene flinches at the sound of the voice, low and repulsive, as he gazes in shock; the memories of their last encounter jar through his brain, hitting him like a sledgehammer. Out of all the possibilities, why is it. . . Javier?!As Rene meets Javier's equally stunned stare, his fears melt away, replaced by a rising tide of anger, washing over him in a vicious, boiling wave. The nightmarish vision of Horden. . . losing the child makes his head foggy. The pure hate that consumes him is so intense, crushing him and leaving him breathless. Javier springs abruptly from his chair, ordering the others to leave, and they all do so, except for Soral who nervously stares from Rene to Javier. “H-How are you here?”Javier says, stepping closer in quick, heavy strides, and Rene's teeth bare, his finger clenched, preparing to shred Javier's face if he so much as touches him. "Rene!" Soral rushes to grasp Rene's hand, they need to leave!The exit is suddenl

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN * * "I want to mark you so deeply" Lyrien continues, grazing strong fingers down Rene’s exposed collarbone, "That even the stars know you’re mine.” “Lyrien,” Rene whimpers, dragging Lyrien from the daze he seems to have fallen into. “I want to spend every second here in this hut rutting with you, knotting you deeply until you cannot think of anything else, but me!” " he whispers, leaning even closer so that their lips nearly brush, but even so, their gazes remain magnetized. “So, I want to bury myself in you and forget the rest of the world exists. Is this... love?” Lyrien’s voice cracks at the end— with something fragile. Wounded. A moment passes silently, and then helpless frustration flashes across Lyrien's face. “I guess not,” he whispers. “Maybe because, I only know how to take, how to conquer and to own, perhaps this is all I'm capable of, Lyrien becomes blurred under Rene’s tearful gaze; the lost look in his mate's eyes, which is c

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN * * From a young age, Lyrien had been driven with the sole purpose of conquering lands and strengthening their clan. To redeem his bloodline. He had cut off every emotion that was linked to being weak, seen as vulnerable, and unfit. Engraved so deeply within him was the unwillingness to walk in his father's path and make the same mistakes. He had never wanted a mate nor to share a bond with anyone, and on the rare occasions that he did allow himself to think about it, a mate was only a means to an end. A power symbol. A tool for breeding. One would lead. One would submit. Simple. Controlled. But his very principle shattered the day this fair-headed omega stumbled into his life, sacrificed to him, and Lyrien had eaten his prey. Tasted the forbidden fruit. Even back then, Rene had radiated so bright, something so fragile, yet so beautiful, flooding that dark space with his warmth and light. And before Lyrien knew it, the icy wall he'd spent

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN * * Rene inhales deeply and the smell of breakfast wafts into his nostrils, and all of a sudden, his stomach feels very queasy. Sighing, he climbs off the bed; much to his luck, Lyrien is nowhere in the hut as Rene disposes of the unpleasant-smelling food. If Lyrien finds out that he has been skipping meals, there's no doubt that he will throw a fit, but these days, Rene has zero appetite; perhaps this is also an aftermath symptom of the heat he recently underwent. His attention shifts to the door, the loud voices outside gnaw at Rene's curiosity, but the first step he takes outside the hut fills him with instant regret. His feet sway as dizziness attacks his whole body. Ugh. . . Not again! The morning air is cool but Rene's skin feels overly warm, his breath hot. When will these symptoms pass? But Kai had told him it's normal to expect a few changes until his body readjusts to normal cycle. It shouldn't be this severe. Why are my own thi

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE * * Luca stiffens slightly as his eyes land briefly on the particular female who watches him with a strong flicker of hope in her eyes. Deranged, dark eyes, but then it is to be expected that she has completely lost her mind. "Brother. . . You came to see me, right?" Yara grips the metal bars to her cell, her stomach is bigger now, heavy with child. "I knew you wouldn't entirely forsake me," For some seconds, Luca's gaze roams Yara's now scrawny features; her eyes are sunken and red; she is certainly not doing well in this foul-smelling environment. "I'll put to birth any time soon, I cannot give birth here! Lyrien changed his mind, right?" She laughs, high and broken. "You're here to get me out, I know you are! Does he want the baby now? Will I become the Lady Chief? Why won't he want me? I was there for him first!" She suddenly screams, tears assaulting her eyes at Luca's dead expression. Luca's expression tightens, at this moment, he doesn

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN * * Tears spill freely down Soral’s cheeks now, hot and silent. His body aches in too many ways to count, but it's worse in his chest, his heart feels like a raw, open wound. “I'm scared. . .”He grasps Vidarr tightly, meeting the barbarian’s dark, now lust-filled gaze. “What are you afraid of?” Even now, Soral cannot bring himself to answer. A past already forgotten, perhaps speaking about it will manifest it into existence. Late into the night, the fires are now dim, but the pair does not need an external source to keep them warm. Soral's exhausted body drifts off and for the first time in a long time, the nightmare visited. He dreams of the old village. A slave to serve the noble Akleris, but Soral hadn't always been a slave. For the first five years of his life, he had parents like every child. “We are family, aren't we? Selling you will feed us for a week, can you not do this much for your family?” “Besides, you are an omega, keeping you

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TEN * * Soral blinks twice, his frantic mind scrambling for a response, how did the conversation suddenly sway in this unwanted direction? What prize is this barbarian even talking about?! Soral's hand flies towards his neck, as though to shield it from Vidarr's lazily wandering gaze, his body quivering with sudden chills. Only a few moments ago, he thought he'd completely wrap this barbarian around his fingers. . . Or had he not? "So. . . Mark or not?" Vidarr drawls, shattering the momentary silence; a concealed smirk tugs on his lips as he watches his flustered prey. Soral feels ensnared by the mysterious gleam in Vidarr's eyes, is fate toying with him? How can he suddenly demand this?! "No mark!" Soral shakes his head vehemently, he knows only little about mating bonds, but he knows they will become family in the truest sense if he bears this Alpha's mark. . . Such an intimate tie, yet, meaningless to those who have them. He doesn't need blood tie

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINE * * Soral whimpers, leaning up, his lips trembling as he joins it to Vidarr's "I’m yours. I need you." Vidarr’s control shatters. He seizes Soral’s mouth in a brutal kiss, plundering him without mercy. His hand yanks at the breeches clinging to Soral’s hips, ripping them down roughly with one hand, exposing him to the cold air—and to him. Soral clings to him, matching the kiss with frantic hunger, their bodies colliding as Vidarr fills him up in one solid thrust. Vidarr doesn't stop until he fills completely, and Soral, who adjusts past the initial discomfort, doesn't know if he can survive the pleasure of it all. Vidarr's hips rock into him with soft, unhurried movements. The pleasure is a slow build, bringing them higher and higher with each thrust. Their heavy breaths mingle together, bodies slick with sweat as each minute passes “Vidarr . . .” Soral whimpers, his fingers digging into Vidarr's shoulders as his scrotum tightens; Vidarr reaches

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT **"He stays outside," Vidarr's voice rings with cold finality, slicing through the chill air, leaving no room for argument.Soral stares at the smaller cottage, which is isolated some distance from the larger one he shares with Vidarr. His chest tightens."At least, for tonight, can't he—""No."The flat, dead tone silences him.Soral bites his lip, glancing at Tyr, who shrinks under Vidarr’s glare. Fear flickers in the boy’s eyes. Soral’s mind whirls with questions, so many things only Tyr can answer—what had happened in the village, how he'd ended up with Yori.They hurt him.The thought squeezed Soral’s heart painfully. His shoulders slump with resignation when Vidarr doesn't soften. Vidarr has agreed to take the omega with them, but he would be damned before letting him invade his and Soral's space."Now," Vidarr’s voice drops, dangerously soft; Soral gazes up at him as he continues "How about you finish what you started earlier, omega?
