Rebirth and Revenge:Lycan King’s Feisty Luna Chapter 68: Nights Before
[Alaric’s POV]She found me on the balcony before I’d finished working out how to start.“You’re pacing,” Eileen said, closing the door behind her. “That’s not a good news kind of pacing.”“It’s a nervous kind of pacing. There’s a difference.”“You’re nervous. About good news.”“I’m nervous about saying it out loud and making it real.” I pulled her in against my side, and she came easily, fitting there the way she always did now, like the space had been shaped around her from the start. “I spoke with the elder council this morning. Before Vale even arrived.”“About what?”“About the old succession law. The one that says a firstborn daughter marries where the council decides is most useful to the pack, regardless of what she wants.”Her whole body went still against mine. “The one that almost happened to me, if I’d been born into this family instead of marrying into it.”“That one.” I made myself keep going instead of losing my nerve halfway through. “I asked them to strike it. Formall
Rebirth and Revenge:Lycan King’s Feisty Luna Chapter 67: An engagement
[Eileen’s POV]The great hall hadn’t been this full since my own wedding, and this time nobody in it looked like they were attending a funeral.Alaric stood at the front with Kade beside him, both of them dressed properly for once, and the whole court had gone quiet waiting to hear why they’d been summoned on a night nobody expected good news.“Three days ago my brother asked a woman to be his mate in the middle of a garden, with a war bell ringing over both their heads.” Alaric’s voice carried easy across the hall. “She said yes anyway.”The room made a sound I hadn’t heard it make in months, something between a gasp and a laugh, warm and real.Lumi stood off to the side in a dress someone had clearly finished sewing an hour ago, her hands twisted together until Kade reached over and pried them apart, holding one in his.“Lumi.” Alaric said her name like he meant the respect behind it. “Welcome to this family properly. You’ve earned it twice over.”She didn’t manage words. She just n
Rebirth and Revenge:Lycan King’s Feisty Luna Chapter 66: Lucian’s War Council
[Lucian’s POV]The runner didn’t even wait to catch his breath before he said it.“The South Pack’s signed with Alaric. Full alliance. Troops, not just trade.”I set my glass down slower than I wanted to, giving my hands something to do besides react. Somewhere in my chest something old and familiar started tightening, the same feeling I’d had as a boy watching my father lose ground at a negotiating table and call it strategy afterward. I wasn’t going to call this strategy.“How many troops.”“Two hundred moving within the week, my lord. More promised if it comes to it.”“Get out.” I waited until the door shut behind him before I let my jaw tighten. “Vale. That old coward’s spent thirty years staying out of every fight that wasn’t his. Now suddenly he’s picking a side.”“He’s picking the winning side.” Selena said it without looking up from the map, tracing the southern border with one finger. “That’s what Vale’s always done. He waits until the outcome’s obvious, then acts like he d
Rebirth and Revenge:Lycan King’s Feisty Luna Chapter 65: The South Pack’s Terms
[Alaric’s POV]I hadn’t slept, and it showed enough that my steward mentioned it twice before I told him to stop.“Alpha Vale’s carriage passed the outer gate ten minutes ago,” he said instead, wisely. “Full retinue. He’s not sending an envoy this time.”“Good. I’m done negotiating with men who aren’t authorized to actually promise anything.”Eileen fell into step beside me on the way to the receiving hall, dressed in formal furs, though the dark hollows beneath her eyes matched my own exhaustion.“You didn’t have to come,” I said.“He’s here because of a promise I made him. I’m not hiding upstairs while you collect it.”“I wasn’t going to ask you to hide.”“Good. Because I wasn’t going to listen.”“Did the guards find anything?” I kept my voice low, for her alone. “After we searched the corridor.”“Nothing. Whoever it was knew exactly which halls don’t have eyes on them.” She matched my pace without slowing. “We’re not telling Vale about any of it, are we?”“Not unless he already kno
Rebirth and Revenge:Lycan King’s Feisty Luna Chapter 64: Old Records
[Eileen’s POV]Alaric didn’t even let me change before we went down there.“The vault,” he said, already moving toward the west wing, still shirtless, still smelling like torch smoke and dirt from the yard. “The one under the old study. My father kept everything in there he didn’t want touched .”“Everything meaning what?”“Meaning I don’t actually know. I’ve been there twice in my life.”The vault turned out to be a room I hadn’t known existed, cold enough that my breath showed, shelves of leather-bound books stacked three deep and older than either of us by centuries. Alaric lit two lanterns and handed me one without a word, and we split the room without discussing it, him on the left wall, me on the right.“What am I even looking for?”“Anything with a wolf on the cover that isn’t gold or gray.” He pulled a book down, blew dust off it hard enough to make himself cough. “Anything silver.”“You realize this is insane. An hour ago we were sparring. Now we’re breaking into your father’
Rebirth and Revenge:Lycan King’s Feisty Luna CHAPTER 63: Training Ground
[Alaric’s POV]She was already in the yard by the time I got there, barefoot in the dirt, rolling her shoulders like she’d been waiting on me instead of the other way around.“You’re slow,” she said.“I’m punctual. There’s a difference.” I pulled my shirt over my head and dropped it on the fence post. “Wooden blades first. Then we shift.”“We’ve done wooden blades a hundred times.”“Then it should be easy for you.” I picked up the practice sword, tossed her the other one, watched her catch it without looking, wrist already turning to test the balance. “Thirty riders tonight. Thirty thousand eventually, if Lucian brings everything he has. I need you fast enough that speed stops being the thing that gets you killed.”“I know how to fight.”“You know how to fight someone who wants you alive to answer questions. This is different.” I circled her once, slow, watching her feet more than her hands. “This is someone who wants you dead in the first three seconds and doesn’t care how.”She str
