Rejected as the Fat Mate Chapter 95_Grandfather
Ronan's POV"Enough games from a distance. If you want this ended, come face me directly."I shouted the challenge across the battlefield's chaos, watching Merek's expression shift with something that might have been genuine surprise at my defiance. To my shock, he stepped forward from the tree line, moving through his own warriors with the unhurried confidence of a man who feared nothing this battlefield could offer him."Hold your positions," he called to his forces, and the fighting around me paused with unnerving discipline, warriors on both sides stepping back to create space as Merek approached, his own blade drawn now for the first time since his arrival.Reeve moved to flank me, but I raised a hand, stopping him. "Let this happen. If he wants to finish this personally, I won't hide behind guards who've already sacrificed enough."Merek stopped several paces away, studying me with the same careful assessment he'd shown throughout every previous encounter. "You've inherited more

Ronan's POV"Something's wrong. This position should be empty."I reined my horse to a stop at the ridge's edge, scanning terrain that should have shown nothing beyond routine patrol activity, my instincts screaming warning before my eyes fully registered the reason why."My lord." One of my escort guards pointed toward the tree line below, where movement had begun emerging with disciplined, coordinated precision. "Multiple units, converging from three directions.""That's not possible. This inspection was supposed to remain confidential.""Apparently not confidential enough." Captain Reeve drew his blade, positioning himself protectively at my flank. "Orders, my lord?"I calculated our options rapidly, six guards against what appeared to be considerably larger numbers already moving to encircle our position. "We can't outrun them on this terrain. We hold the ridge, force them to come at us through the narrow approach rather than surrounding us on open ground."The first wave hit with

Tahlia's POV"I found her private correspondence hidden inside a false-bottomed drawer in the records office. You need to see this now."Cassian's voice carried none of his usual composure as he burst into the war room, a stack of intercepted letters clutched in his hand. I set down the requisition ledgers I'd been reviewing, dread already coiling tight in my stomach."Show me."He spread the letters across the table, and I forced myself to read through them methodically, cataloging dates, cross-referencing them against the transfer orders and troop movements we'd already uncovered."These are addressed to Nadia directly," I said slowly, "but the handwriting isn't hers.""Look at the content, not simply the recipient."I read further, and the words settled into my stomach like stones. Detailed troop positions. Supply route timelines. The exact schedule for reinforcements arriving from Marrow Vale and Ember Crest, information that should have remained sealed within our highest command
Rejected as the Fat Mate Chapter 92_The Traitor
Tahlia's POV"I need you to leak false troop positions to three separate people, each one slightly different, and tell no one else which version you've given whom."Cassian raised an eyebrow at the request, though he didn't question it, already reaching for parchment to begin the task. "You suspect the traitor's someone within immediate command structure.""I suspect it's someone with access sensitive enough that Merek considers the intelligence worth the risk of maintaining an active source inside these walls." I paced the length of the war room, mind racing through the mechanics of the trap I intended to build. "Three false positions, each fed to a different commander who reports directly to strategic planning. Whichever version reaches Merek's forces first tells us exactly whose hands the information passed through.""And if none of them leak it?""Then we've at least eliminated three suspects and narrowed our search considerably." I met his eyes. "Who reports directly enough to st

Tahlia's POV"He's amassed warriors from six territories already. Six, Cassian, in less than two weeks."I spread the latest intelligence reports across the war table, the same table where I'd once organized supply lines against Kael Draven's approaching army, now facing an enemy considerably older and considerably more patient than anything we'd previously survived."King Merek spent forty years building this network," Cassian said grimly, studying the troop movements marked across our map. "He's not improvising. Every resource, every alliance, every territory now pledging support—he's had decades to cultivate exactly this moment.""Then we need considerably more than improvisation ourselves." I turned to Ronan, who stood at the war room's edge, still carrying the particular tension that had settled into his posture since his confrontation in the royal crypts. "This isn't simply another crisis to manage. This is the largest conflict Silver Ridge has faced in generations, against an e

Ronan's POV"You look like your father. Pity. I'd hoped you'd resemble me instead."The voice came from the shadows at the rear of the empty tomb chamber, and I spun toward it, blade already drawn, torch trembling slightly in my other hand despite my effort to steady it. A figure emerged slowly into the flickering light—tall, weathered by decades I hadn't accounted for, his features carrying unmistakable resemblance to portraits I'd seen throughout the palace's oldest galleries."You're supposed to be dead.""Supposed to be is doing considerable work in that sentence." King Merek stepped fully into the torchlight, his posture carrying none of the frailty I might have expected from a man decades past his official death. "I imagine this moment carries more shock for you than it does for me. I've had considerably longer to prepare for it.""Every conspiracy. Corwin. Selene's manipulation. Talon's succession. You orchestrated all of it.""I orchestrated the opportunities. Others chose how
