I watched Amelia walk ahead of me down the corridor, her spine rigid, her copper hair swinging in an unnaturally perfect rhythm with each deliberate step. She hadn’t spoken a single word since we’d left the interrogation room.

Hadn’t looked at me.

Hadn’t reached for me through our bond.

Ares whined within me, his golden presence stretching toward Athena’s copper warmth only to find it withdrawn, curled tight and defensive around whatever turmoil churned inside my mate. The name Et

    Lukas’s hand found my waist as the door closed behind Dr. Thornwood, his palm warm through the fabric of my sweater. He guided me with careful pressure, and I let him, my body moving to his without conscious decision. His lap was solid beneath me, his chest a wall of heat at my back, and for a moment I let myself sink into the contact, my head finding the hollow of his collarbone with the particular certainty of something coming home.Dominic and Nico sat opposite, the two of them arranged in chairs that had been pulled close to the desk. Dominic’s scarred face was set in lines of controlled patience, his steel-grey eye fixed on the map with the particular focus of a man who’d been hunting the same prey for too long. Nico looked worse – dark circles shadowing his eyes, a fresh cut across his jaw that hadn’t been there yesterday. They’d been searching while I’d been lying in a medical bed, and the guilt of that sat in my chest like something physical.I took a breath. Held it. Let it g

    I woke to cold sheets and the particular silence of an empty room. My hand found the space beside me before my eyes opened, palm pressing into the mattress where Amelia should have been, and for one terrible moment the fear was back, cold and certain. Then I remembered: she was awake. She was healing. She was mine.She stood by the wardrobe, already dressed in trousers and a loose sweater that swallowed her frame, running a brush through her copper hair with hands that still trembled slightly. The morning light caught the angles of her face, hollows where there should have been curves, and something in my chest twisted at the sight.“You’re supposed to be in bed,” I said, pushing myself upright. My voice came out rougher than I’d intended.Amelia didn’t look at me. “We won’t find Sera if I’m stuck in bed, Lukas.”I swung my legs over the edge of the mattress, feeling every hour of missed sleep in the stiffness of my shoulders. “Elara said—”“I know what Elara said.” She set the brush

    I kept my arm around Amelia’s waist as we walked back to our bedroom, feeling the particular lightness of her body against mine with a protectiveness that bordered on possessiveness. Five days in a medical bed had left her thinner than she should have been, the curves I’d memorised with my hands reduced to angles that made something in my chest ache. She leaned into me more than she normally would, her steps careful but steady, and I matched my pace to hers without comment.The corridors of the palace were quieter than they should have been at this hour, most of the staff still confined to quarters after the Voice’s attack. The few guards we passed snapped to attention, their expressions carefully neutral though I caught the relief in their eyes at the sight of their queen walking under her own power. News traveled fast. By now, everyone would know Amelia was awake, was recovering, was—against all odds—still herself.

    I woke to the sound of Lukas’s voice, low and controlled in the way that meant he was keeping a leash on his temper. My eyes stayed closed out of habit more than necessity—years of servant life had taught me the value of listening before being seen—and the medical wing resolved around me through sound alone: the steady beeping of monitors, the soft rustle of fabric, Dominic’s gravel voice answering Lukas with the particular precision of a man delivering bad news.“The rogue isn’t talking to me or Nico,” Dominic was saying, each word clipped with frustration. “Whatever Sera did to him, it left enough of him intact to recognise an enforcer when he sees one. He clams up the moment either of us enters the room.”Lukas made a sound that wasn’t quite a growl. “We need answers, Dominic. The blood moon…”“I’m aware of the timeline, my King.”I opened my eyes and stretched my neck, feeling the pop of vertebrae tha

    The water hit my back like a physical blow, too hot by any reasonable standard but exactly what my exhausted body needed. I braced my forearms against the shower wall and let my head hang between my shoulders, water sluicing down my spine in sheets that turned the bathroom into a steam-filled cavern. Four days without proper sleep had left me running on something beyond exhaustion, a hollow, buzzing alertness that made every sensation too sharp and every thought too slow.I’d been standing there for—minutes? longer?—when Lily’s presence brushed against my mind. Not words. Just images, pushed through our tenuous connection with the particular lack of finesse that was pure Lily: Amelia, awake, propped against her pillows with one wrist still cuffed to the bed rail but the other free, a glass of water balanced carefully in her freed hand. She was rolling her eyes at something I couldn’t see, her copper hair falling around a face that had colou

  • Rejected By The Beta, Claimed By The Alpha King   Chapter 32: Lily

    I stood frozen on the palace steps, my mind struggling to reconcile the Amelia I knew; the servant girl who'd wiped my tears after Julian's beatings, who'd whispered impossible dreams of freedom in the dark, with this radiant creature before me. She wore an emerald gown that probably cost more th

    My head swam with the weight of Silver Lake's sins. After hours of methodically cataloging every infraction, every cruelty inflicted by those I'd once called family, exhaustion pulled at me like gravity. Each transgression we'd documented had been a fresh cut across old scars. Marcus's calculated

    I drummed my fingers against the ancient ironwood of my desk, watching the minutes tick closer to two o'clock. The morning without Amelia had stretched interminably, my thoughts repeatedly drifting to her copper hair spread across library tables as she absorbed knowledge with that fierce concentr

    I watched Lily's face as she took another bite of pastry, her eyes closing briefly in pleasure. Even with her bruised wrists and the careful way she held herself to avoid aggravating her back, there was a hint of the old Lily in that expression—the girl who could find joy in small things despite
