Property of the King’s Shadows at the Border
Leonidas stayed in my room through the rest of the night. He did not ask for anything, nor did he make a move to touch me again. He simply sat on the wooden chair near the small window, his eyes fixed on the dark horizon, waiting for a signal from his men.I sat on the bed, watching his broad back. The mark on my neck gave off a steady, gentle hum that kept the cold terror in my chest at bay. For the first time since I was taken from the Hollow, I did not feel entirely alone."My riders are fast," Leonidas said softly into the quiet room, his deep voice barely louder than a whisper. "They will reach your house before dawn. The healers will leave the medicine on your doorstep and make sure your brother takes it."A tight knot in my throat loosened. "How can you be so sure they will get past the border guards?"Leonidas turned his head slightly, giving me a small, confident smirk. "My men know the hidden paths through the woods better than the wolves ever will. Do not worry, Fae. When I

I slammed the door to my room and locked it from the inside, collapsing onto the bed as my body shook with deep, uncontrollable sobs. My hands were still tingling from the hard slap I gave Riccardo. My chest burned, the wolf mark pulsing with an angry, broken beat that echoed straight from his wounded soul.I didn't care that he was hurting. I didn't care that I had spoken to an Alpha King like he was dirt beneath my feet. He had called my brother weak. He had sat there with a cold face and declared that Silas's life was nothing more than a waste.Tears poured down my face, hot and fast, soaking into my sleeves as I pulled my knees to my chest. Silas. My sweet, innocent little brother was lying alone in our cold house in the Hollow, coughing up blood while I sat here trapped in a golden cage.A sharp knock sounded at the door.I ignored it, burying my face in my pillow. "Go away, Tiber!"The lock clicked from the outside anyway, and the heavy door pushed open. I didn't bother sitting
Property of the King’s Words Like Poison
I sat on the edge of my bed, staring at the small window as the morning sun slowly lit up the room. My mind was spinning with worry. It had been days since I left the Hollow, and I had no idea if my brother Silas was eating, or if his sickness had taken a turn for the worse.A sharp knock sounded at the door. Before I could even stand up, Beta Tiber stepped inside. His face carried a cold, cruel smirk that made my skin crawl."The Alpha wants to see you in his office," Tiber said, his voice laced with pure disdain. "And don't take your time. He isn't in a good mood."I pushed myself up, ignoring the way my heart hammered against my ribs. I walked past Tiber without looking at him, following him down the long corridor until we reached Riccardo's private study.Riccardo sat behind his dark desk, staring down at a folded piece of paper in his hands. His golden eyes looked tired, but his jaw was set in a tight, angry line. When I stepped into the room, he didn't even look up at first."Le

The next evening came far too fast. Nova sat on the edge of the bed, her hands wrapped tightly around her own arms. Her skin was still warm where Leonidas had touched her the night before. The mark on her neck throbbed with a slow, quiet heat, reminding her of the wild Lycan King who had left her so confused.A key turned in the lock. The heavy door opened, and Alpha Riccardo stepped into the room.He closed the door behind him and stood tall, his posture stiff and formal. His gold eyes swept over Nova, sharp and cold. But as he took a step forward, his nostrils flared. His whole body went still.Nova shrank back slightly, watching his face. "Alpha."Riccardo did not answer right away. He took two long strides toward her, stopping just a few feet away. His jaw was clenched so tight the muscles in his cheek twitched. The scent of pine and fresh earth—Leonidas’s scent—was still faint on her skin, mixed with the sweet smell of white flowers that belonged only to her."He touched you," Ri

The sun went down, casting long shadows across my room. Every tick of the clock felt like a countdown to my doom. My heart pounded against my ribs as I waited by the window, my eyes fixed on the locked door.Leonidas was coming.The thought alone made my hands cold. Riccardo was terrifying, but he moved with a controlled, quiet cruelty. Leonidas was different. He was a creature of war, wild and unpredictable. He hated Fae more than anyone, and tonight, he had complete access to me.The heavy latch clicked. The door swung open, and Leonidas stepped into the room.He filled the doorway entirely. Broad shoulders, tall frame, and skin marked by years of brutal fights. His dark hair was wild, and his sharp green eyes swept over the small room before landing directly on me.I backed up until my spine hit the cold stone wall. "My lord."Leonidas didn't answer right away. He closed the door behind him with a soft thud, his gaze fixed on my face. He looked at me like I was a strange puzzle he

Morning came far too fast. I barely slept, staring at the dark ceiling as the two marks on my body pulsed with a faint, restless warmth. Every time I drifted off, I saw the fierce, glowing eyes of Riccardo and Leonidas in my mind, watching me like prey.A knock at the door made me jump out of bed.Tiber stood in the doorway, his face twisted in deep disgust. "The Alpha King and King Leonidas require your presence immediately in the private study. Move."My throat went dry. "Both of them?""Do not make them wait, Fae," Tiber warned, his voice dripping with venom. "They have been arguing since dawn because of you."I swallowed the lump in my throat and followed him down the quiet hallway. My stomach twisted into tight knots with every step. When Tiber opened the heavy doors to the study, the thick, heavy air inside almost knocked me backward.Riccardo sat behind a long desk, his silver-gold hair slightly messy, his jaw set in a hard line. Standing near the wide window was Leonidas, his
