The Grand Throne Room erupted into shouting. Lord Sterling slammed his fist onto a wooden table, knocking over a silver goblet of wine.

"Three hundred warriors?" Sterling yelled, his face turning purple. "That is an invading force! We need to seal the inner gates!"

"And look like terrified prey?" I shouted back, my voice slicing through the panic. I marched up the marble steps and turned, staring down at the terrified lords. "Nobody seals a fucking thing. Let him in."

    The poisoned blade sliced through the air, aimed directly at my throat.Time slowed. My instincts, sharpened by years of abuse and awakened by the First Blood, hijacked my muscles. I threw my weight backward, twisting my torso. The jagged dagger missed my jugular, but the razor-sharp tip tore through the velvet of my sleeve, slicing a shallow, burning line across my upper arm.The young lord’s eyes were completely unhinged. He raised the dagger for a second strike, screaming, "Die, you filthy fucking—"He didn't get to finish the sentence.A massive hand, cloaked in pitch-black shadow magic, clamped over his face.Ronan didn't just grab him; he obliterated his momentum. The Lycan King lifted the grown man entirely off his feet by his skull. The lord dropped the dagger, kicking wildly, his muffled screams vibrating through Ronan’s thick fingers."You touched my Queen," Ronan snarled, a sound so dark and demonic it shook the dust from the chandeliers.Ronan slammed the lord backward ont

    The Grand Throne Room erupted into shouting. Lord Sterling slammed his fist onto a wooden table, knocking over a silver goblet of wine."Three hundred warriors?" Sterling yelled, his face turning purple. "That is an invading force! We need to seal the inner gates!""And look like terrified prey?" I shouted back, my voice slicing through the panic. I marched up the marble steps and turned, staring down at the terrified lords. "Nobody seals a fucking thing. Let him in.""Your Grace, if Alpha Kaelen has brought his army—" a younger lord started, his hands shaking."I said let him in!" I roared.The room fell dead silent. The nobles scrambled back, clearing a wide path down the center of the hall. I sat down on the high throne. The velvet was cold against my back. I rested my hands on the carved armrests and waited. Ronan stepped up to my right side, his golden eyes fixed on the heavy oak doors, the shadows around his boots writhing like living snakes.The heavy war horn blasted a fourth

    "Why is she still breathing?"Lord Sterling’s raspy voice echoed through the Council Chamber, cutting through the scratch of quills against parchment.I sat at the head of the obsidian war table, the silver crown resting heavy on my brow. Maps of the five territories were spread across the polished wood, held down by silver daggers. Beside me, Ronan stood like an iron statue, his shadow magic pooling at his boots."Queen Maeve is locked in the North Tower behind five layers of silver-laced warding, Lord Sterling," I said, keeping my voice smooth, calm, and absolute. "She has no guards. She has no council. She has no crown.""She has ten years of loyalists hiding in every corner of this castle, Your Grace," another lord chimed in, leaning forward. "The kitchen staff, the floor scrubbers, the city watch—half of them owe their titles to her. Leaving the former Regent alive gives every traitor in the capital a flag to rally around.""And executing her without securing the Northern borders

    I woke up to the smell of burning cedar and the feeling of heavy silk against my skin.For a terrifying second, my brain didn’t understand where I was. I waited for the cold draft of the servant’s quarters. I waited for Lysandra’s shrill voice screaming at me to fetch the morning water.Nothing came.I opened my eyes. Sunlight poured through massive arched windows, catching the gold-painted frescoes on the ceiling. A fire crackled warmly in the massive hearth across the room. I was lying in the center of a mattress large enough to fit five people, tangled in crimson velvet blankets.I sat up, pushing the heavy blankets off my chest.Ronan was sitting in a high-backed leather chair near the heavy oak door. He was fully dressed in dark leather armor, his broken iron chains still hanging from his wrists. His elbows rested on his knees, and his golden eyes were fixed entirely on me."Did you sleep at all?" I asked, my voice thick with sleep."I guarded," Ronan replied. His deep voice fill

    Maeve’s words hung in the air.Did you truly believe I didn't know you survived the chasm?My heart skipped a violent beat. A cold drop of sweat slid down the back of my neck. I tightened my grip on my shortsword, the leather wrapping digging sharply into my palm. I thought I had cornered her, but Maeve was looking at me like I was a piece on her chessboard.Ronan shifted closer. His massive shoulder brushed against mine. The furnace heat rolling off his body grounded me, chasing away the sudden chill in my blood. I took a slow, deep breath."You knew," I said, keeping my voice steady. "But you didn't stop me."Maeve stopped on the bottom step of the dais. She didn't look at Dracon, who was bleeding on the floor from his broken nose. She didn't look at Alaric, who was weeping quietly over his pinned hand. She looked only at the glowing gold mark on my chest."Why would I?" Maeve asked smoothly. "Alpha Dracon grew greedy. He tried to spill sacred blood to elevate his spoiled daughter."

    The parchment scrolls slapped against the polished marble floor with a sound like a crack of thunder. They tumbled across the dais, unrolling until the dark red wax seals and Alaric’s jagged, arrogant handwriting lay exposed under the blinding light of the crystal chandeliers.The silence in the Grand Throne Room was absolute. No one dared to move; no one even seemed to breathe. Ronan’s crushing King’s Aura kept every guard, lord, and noble pinned to the stone floor, their chests heaving against the suffocating pressure.Alaric stared at the scrolls lying inches from his trembling knees. His face had gone from pale to a sickly, ash gray."Vesper... wait... listen to me—""Read them," I commanded, my voice slicing through the heavy air like a razor. "Or should I read them for you, Alpha? Should I recite the poetry you sent to my sister while I scrubbed the dirt from your boots? Or perhaps the blood-pact ritual where you planned to drain my life force on the winter solstice?"Whispers e
