ARES

I knew something was wrong before I even reached Lyras door. It was not because someone was screaming or because the guards were running around. The fortress itself told me. I felt the stone vibrate beneath my feet, a movement that most people would have missed. Then it happened again, a low pulse that seemed to move through the walls, as if the fortress had developed a heartbeat.

This was impossible, which meant it was actually happening. I started moving before I could even think about w

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   Ashes and Silver

    LYRA War has a sound. It's not the noises. Not swords hitting shields or people screaming as they die. The real sound of war is quieter. It's in the thunder of marching armies. In the crackling of fires burning villages before dawn. In the silence when everyone in the room already knows the news is bad. That's the sound around me now. It's heavy. Endless. Alive. I stand on the walls with cold wind blowing through my silver cloak. The mist below the cliffs looks like an ocean waiting to drown the world. Three weeks. It has been three weeks since the war started. The kingdom is bleeding. Stormclaw flags are burning across half the lands. Lycan soldiers move through mountain passes day and night. Refugees flood every protected route we open. Children cry in the fortress halls now. Wounded soldiers sleep against the chapel walls because the healer's wings are full. War makes even victory ugly. A horn blows below. Three short blasts. Scouts are back. I don't move a

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   The Queen Without a Kingdom

    SERENAThey took me away from the kingdom at dawn.Not when everyone could see it.Kael still had some pride so he did not want to embarrass me in front of the kingdom.But I was still humiliated.It felt like everyone was watching me as I walked through Stormclaw hallways with the guards behind me.They made me feel like I was a danger to them.Like I was their enemy.It was funny because after everything I did for the kingdom, they were now scared of me.The hallways were almost empty as I walked to the gates.The servants were still there watching me from the corners and from behind half-open doors.They were whispering to each other.Their eyes were on me, not in a good way.They did not admire me anymore.They did not envy me.They were suspicious of me.I hated it.No, I despised it.Because I had worked hard to be someone they could look up to.Every smile, every kind word, every perfect moment at Kael's side was planned.I had carefully built my life inside these walls.Now, o

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   What Kings Fear

    ARESWar changes people. It makes them tougher. That is the thing I learned when I became a ruler. War takes away the parts of people. It takes away the lies people tell themselves so they can sleep better at night.Some people become cowards when things get tough. Some people become mean.. Some people become the person they were meant to be. Lyra stood in the middle of the war room with a silver fog around her boots. It looked like the fog was moving on its own. I realized I was watching something important happen. I thought to myself anyone who tries to stand against her will be in big trouble.The commanders around the table were talking in low voices. They were looking at a map, talking about what was happening in the war. Some scouts were going back and forth, bringing news from the front lines.I heard that the enemy's supply lines were falling apart. Some villages were giving up without a fight.. Our enemy, Kael was pulling his troops back to the capital. Everything was going

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   StormClaw’s Reckoning

    SERENAI stopped sleeping for three days. Maybe four. Time had started blending the moment the western towers fell. Now everything was in pieces.Smoke.Blood.ReportsScreaming.More smoke.The war room smelled like sweat and fear. I hated it. Stormclaw Keep used to smell clean. Pinewood fires, polished stone, expensive oils burning through silver lanterns. Now it smelled like panic and loss.I was starting to understand something losing had a sound. It wasn't battle cries, it was whispers. The quiet muttering every time another scout returned. The way servants avoided my eyes. The way commanders spoke was softer now.I stood over the war table while a messenger finished speaking. "Three more supply routes collapsed during the night." My nails dug harder into the wood. "How?" The scout swallowed. "The mist." Ofcourse, it’s the mist. Always the mist."It swallowed the pass entirely " he said shakily. "Our men couldn't see each other. Some turned on their units. Others ran into ravin

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   Ash Beneath a Steady hand

    LYRAThe smoke never really left my lungs anymore. It was always there a reminder of what I had been through.When I was standing on the battlefield, when I was behind walls that were falling apart, even when I closed my eyes at night the smoke stayed with me. It was like a ghost inside my chest a reminder that this war had found me just like storms find the coastline.I walked through a corridor in what used to be a school. Now it was a place where our commanders made plans. Maps were everywhere. It was very quiet. I touched the stone walls as I walked feeling the cracks with my fingers. It was something I did without thinking like I was trying to see what would happen next.The sky was loud above us. It was not the weather. I did not jump. I was used to it by now."Tell me what is happening " I said. My voice was steady even though my body wanted to show that I was scared.A young scout came forward. She had dust on her eyelashes. She was very young, not more than nineteen years old

  • Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King   The Sound of Collapse

    KAELThe war started before the sun came up.It did not start with an announcement.It did not start cleanly.There was no message from the royal family.No group of people sat around a fancy table to discuss the problems between our lands.War came quickly and quietly like a knife to the throat.It happened fast.It happened without warning.We were already hurt before we even knew what was happening.I remember the moment everything changed.The watchtower to the west started burning, first with a flame, then with a silver one.I was standing on the walls of Stormclaw Keep watching the smoke rise into the dark sky.The smoke was turning, carrying the smell of burnt wood and hot metal across the mountains.The tower was really away more than two miles.I could still hear the people screaming.My generals were shouting orders around me and soldiers were rushing to the walls trying to get organized.They were all too slow.Everyone was too slow.Because nobody really thought she would
