Ares

He had seen power before.

It had walked over him.

It had begged him for things.

It had even broken in his hands.

What was standing on the wall now did none of those things.

Ares stood a step behind Lyra and to the side. That was the place you could stand near her without getting knocked down.

The mist moved when Lyra breathed.

It was not called to do that.

It was not pulled to do that.

It just did it because it wanted to.

Lyra stepped forward the mist peeled back. She

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   The Things I Broke

    KAELI could not sleep.I had my kingdom back. That did not make a difference.Serena was gone with the poison had. The voices had disappeared.I should have been relieved, I should have felt victorious.I did not.I sat alone in my chambers staring at the fire feeling emptier than I had in months.The silence was real. It was unbearable.There was nothing to distract me from my thoughts now.No hallucinations, no confusion, no lies, memories.The memories were cruel.I remembered everything every moment of madness every time I had mistaken Serena for Lyra.I remembered every time I cried because I thought Lyra had left me every time I begged for someone who was not there.I remembered it all. It was painful.The embarrassment should have been the part, but it wasn't.The worst part was realizing that even when I was poisoned and broken my heart had still searched for Lyra, not Serena, Lyra.I closed my eyes. Immediately I saw her, her silver eyes, her stubborn expression, the little

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   My Throne Not Yours

    KAELI had thought about this moment times.In some versions I exposed Serena in front of everyone.In others I made her confess all her lies in the throne room.Sometimes I imagined her begging.Sometimes I imagined her running.But standing in that hall watching her face turn white as she finally understood I felt something unexpected.The satisfaction was way more than revenge.Because for the time in months Serena was scared.Not just careful.Not suspicious.Scared.The woman who had poisoned me.Manipulated me.Turned my kingdom into her playground.The woman who had watched me lose my mind. Smiled while it happened.She was terrified.I hadn’t even started.I kept smiling at the nobles.Kept laughing.Kept talking.All while Serena stood nearby trying to calm down.It was almost impressive.Almost.Anyone else would have missed it.The slight shake in her fingers.The stiffness in her posture.The way she kept looking at me when she thought I wasn’t paying attention.She was tr

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   The Eyes That Remembered

    SERENAI forgot how to breathe.The music was still playing.People were. Glasses were clinking.Somewhere someone was telling a joke.The world was going on as usual.For me everything had changed.Kael was looking at me.He knew things.Not everything, enough.Far too much.My fingers gripped my wine glass tightly.He smiled that smile of his.I hated that smile.It wasn’t a smile from a man.It was a smile from someone who was watching and thinking.Waiting.I forced a smile back at him.“That’s wonderful " I said.My voice sounded normal thank the Moon Goddess.He tilted his head a bit.“Is it?" he asked.I nodded.“Of course. You’ve been struggling with your memory."There was silence.He looked at me looked at me.Then he smiled again.“Have I?" he asked.I felt a chill.The question seemed simple. It felt wrong.Deliberate.Like he wanted to hear my answer.I swallowed.“Yes " I said.He thought about this.Then nodded slowly.“Interesting " he said.One word.I hated that word

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   The Eyes That Remembered

    SERENASomething did not feel right.I had this feeling before I even saw anything out of the ordinary.The kingdom was different now.At first, it was really small things.Things that were almost not worth noticing.The servants did not look down at me when I walked by them, as they used to.The guards bowed when they saw me. It seemed like they did not really mean it.The maids talked to each other a lot more than they used to.When I walk into a room, people stop talking. Now they would start talking again, even as I walked past.The fear that people used to have of me was starting to goI was sitting at the dining table staring at my breakfast.I did not like this feeling at all.I had worked hard to be in control of the kingdom.I had taken control away from Kael.I had taken his throne, his power, and his authority.I should have been safe.Something was changing.I could feel it.Then I heard a knock at the door."Come in, " I said.A servant came in looking really nervous."Yo

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   The Last Time I Called Him Father

    LYRAI didn't sleep. I just sat beside my sons, watched them breathe all night. One slept with his tiny fist curled against his cheek. The other threw his blanket off. I covered him again and again.They are children. Not prophecies. Not heirs. Not prizes. They are children.The more I looked at them, the more I thought about my father. I thought about lies and betrayal. I kept hearing my mother's voice: He knew.Two words.. They hurt me so much. He knew it wasn't a suppressant. He knew there was danger. He knew it could hurt my babies and me. He gave it to me anyway.I remembered the pain, the blood, and the emptiness afterward. I remembered waking up and realizing one heartbeat was gone forever. I remembered holding my stomach and begging for a miracle.Dawn came slowly. The twins were still asleep. Ares appeared at the doorway, looking exhausted. I suppose I did too."Lyra," he said, his expression concerned."I am fine, " I lied.He didn't argue. He sat beside me and said, "I know

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   The Betrayal

    ARESI did not trust them, no matter how hard I tried. For Lyra, I really did try. Every time I looked at her father, I remembered the night she lost the baby. I remembered her screams, the blood, the grief. The way she had clutched her stomach as though she could somehow hold her child inside her through will. I remembered carrying her, feeling utterly helpless.Now I was expected to sit across from the man who had played a part in that suffering and call him family? No, I was not that generous. As for her mother, I did not know what to make of her. She appeared out of nowhere, carrying answers and regrets, speaking about prophecies and hidden truths as though years of absence could simply be explained away. I watched her carefully, always, because people do not disappear from their child's life and suddenly return without reason. There was always a reason.Still, I kept my opinions to myself because Lyra looked happy. Not entirely happy, there was still grief in her eyes, still fear
