Damien’s POV

I stood at the head of the dining table, hands loosely clasped behind my back as the maids moved around, placing dishes one by one.

The clink of cutlery, the scent of roasted meat, everything was in order.

Quiet. Almost too quiet.

Then Aurora’s voice cut through it.

“Seriously? You didn’t tell her?”

I didn’t even need to turn. I knew it was her. I closed my eyes for half a second before replying.

“You’ll speak with respect, Aurora.”

She let out a short, humorless laugh. “Respect? From me? That’s rich.”

Her heels hit the floor harder than usual as she walked into the room. I turned toward her. Her cheeks were flushed. She looked ready to burn the entire palace down with her eyes alone.

“So, what is this?” she asked. “You’re actually making her Luna? Is that what we’re doing now?”

I didn’t answer right away. Not because I didn’t know what to say, but because behind her, standing half in the shadow of the hall, was Scarlet.

She was quiet. Watching. Listening.

Aurora hadn’t

  • Rejected By The Alpha King, Claimed By The Lycan King   Chapter 20: Becoming Their Queen

    Scarlet’s POVI scoffed, staring at him in disbelief. Callan had the nerve to offer me a deal after I’d just severed our bond. The audacity almost made me laugh.A smile crept across my face, but it wasn’t out of joy—it was bitter amusement. What exactly was he trying to do? Was this some kind of twisted game?“You know,” I said, folding my arms across my chest, “I really wonder how Damien managed to keep you this close without realizing how greedy you are.”“I’m doing this for you, Scarlet,” he said, as if that would excuse everything.“For me?” I let out another scoff, sharper this time. “I didn’t ask you to. I can take care of myself, Callan.”I turned away, not wanting to see his face any longer.“If you don’t have anything useful to do, you can go back to your post,” I added, dismissing him like the conversation was over.But Callan wasn’t ready to let go.“You really think I’m going to give up on you just because you got lucky enough to sever the bond?”I clenched my fists at my

  • Rejected By The Alpha King, Claimed By The Lycan King   Chapter 19: Rejected Luna

    Scarlet’s POVThe moment we were dismissed, I headed straight for my chamber. I just needed space. A moment to breathe.But I didn’t get far before I heard her voice behind me.“Go back to your pack, Scarlet.”I froze.Aurora’s tone was laced with venom, and her footsteps echoed against the cold floor as she approached. I didn’t turn around. Just exhaled slowly and kept walking.“You don’t belong here. Isn’t it obvious?”I stopped again, rolled my eyes, and took a measured breath before continuing forward.“You’re not welcome here, Scarlet,” she called louder.How did she know my name already?Then again, it was obvious. People had been whispering about me since I arrived. I didn’t need a wolf to know that.“I’ll leave when I’m done,” I said without looking back.“When?” she shot back, sharp and impatient. “When are you done?”My jaw clenched. I could already feel my body tensing, fists curling at my sides.“As soon as I’m done,” I answered, trying not to snap.Her presence drew close

  • Rejected By The Alpha King, Claimed By The Lycan King   Chapter 17: Cursed Love

    Scarlet’s POVEveryone went silent.Callan just raised his brow at me, smirking like I was some child playing pretend.I took a few steps back, waiting for something—anything—to happen after the rejection. But nothing came.He stepped forward, cocky as ever, his eyes locking on mine.“You see yourself, cutie?” His voice was low. Mocking. His hand reached out like he was about to touch my face again.I flinched and turned my head.“You look cute,” he chuckled. “But next time, don’t pull stunts you don’t understand.”He moved to the door.“You can’t reject me, baby,” he said without looking back. “Only I can do that.”And then— It hit.A deep, guttural growl shook the room. Callan stopped. His hand dropped from the doorknob.He gasped suddenly and stumbled, grabbing his chest like something inside him just snapped loose. Then he crashed into the door with a loud bang before falling flat to the floor.I froze.“What’s happening?!” I whispered, my voice trembling.Callan writhed on the g

    Scarlet’s POVJust then, she let go of me and turned toward the door.It was only when her fingers brushed the handle that I found my breath again… and a sliver of nerve.I knew I didn’t have to say it, but I said it anyway.“I’m not interested in Damien,” I muttered, forcing the words through my throat. “You can have him.”She froze.Her back stiffened, lips drawn into a thin line.“I can have him to myself?” she repeated slowly, like she wasn’t sure she heard right.“Yes,” I said. “I don’t want anything to do with him.”She turned slightly, enough for her eyes to catch mine. “But… you’re his mate, aren’t you?”“Yes.” The word caught in my throat. I swallowed the rest of the ache it brought.“And the mate pull? You think he’s really going to let you go?”“Eight spaces,” I said quickly.She blinked. Confused.“What does that even mean?” she snapped, voice cracking from exhaustion and disbelief.She was trembling. Her entire body looked like it was about to collapse. Truth be told, sh

  • Rejected By The Alpha King, Claimed By The Lycan King   Chapter 15: Love And Rival

    Scarlet’s POVAs soon as the door opened, my eyes landed on her, the strange woman.Her gaze flicked from me to Damien, and back again. She wasn’t trying to hide how pissed she was.I could tell right away. She wasn’t okay with this. Not one bit.Damien stepped forward, tension rippling through him. His voice came out sharp.“Shouldn’t you be sleeping? What are you doing here?”But she ignored that.Instead, her eyes locked on the contract form in my hand.Then she looked at me like I was the problem.“Are you really going to pick her over me?” she asked, voice flat, but her expression screamed jealousy.And honestly? I could understand why.She’d just been with him brutally. The scars were still fresh on her skin. Deep. Bleeding in some spots, barely healing in others. Her wolf hadn’t even caught up yet.I forced myself to look away. The whole air in the room had turned heavy, too thick to breathe in.But Damien wasn’t letting it slide.“I said…” he growled, fists curling tight. “Ain
