Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan Kingย ย ย Chapter 53 Seeing them Again
(Naomi)Seeing them together still hurts. No matter how much I try to convince myself otherwise, the sight of Jasper and Iris together feels like a dagger to my heart. They moved through the dense forest with a familiarity that speaks of trust, something I once shared with them but no longer can. Jasper grabbed a thorny tree branch to clear a path for Iris, his movements gentle despite the ruggedness of the task. When he saw me, his eyes filled with sadness and guilt. But now I really couldn't care less. Those emotions belong to another time, another Naomi. I need to protect myself. I canโt rely on the men in my life anymore. Jasper, fatherโฆ theyโve all betrayed me in their own ways. โI gathered that he sent you back to kill Elias, right?โ I started when they were close enough. My voice was steady, betraying none of the turmoil inside. โWhat are you doing here!โ Iris doesnโt seem to hear my question, but the look on Jasperโs face told me that I am right. He knows whatโs at

(Iris) We walked in silence through the dense forest, the weight of our thoughts hanging heavily in the air. The moonlight filtered through the trees, casting eerie shadows on the ground. Jasperโs presence beside me was a comfort and a burden at the same time. We had been through so much together, but now, everything felt different. Jasper broke the silence. โI donโt even recognize her anymore,โ he said, his voice tinged with sadness and frustration. โLosing your only parent really makes you grow up fast,โ I replied, my own heart aching for Naomi. We had all lost so much. Too much. โThat makes all four of us now,โ Jasper muttered. I nodded but didnโt say anything. The silence settled between us again, heavy and suffocating. Finally, I couldn't take it anymore. โWhatโs your plan?โ I asked, needing to know what he was thinking. โAre you going to help me?โ He shot back, his eyes narrowing. โNo,โ I admitted. โThen Iโm not telling you,โ he said flatly. โIf you kill him, there wil

(Seraphina)The stronghold echoed with an oppressive stillness that weighed on my shoulders like a leaden cloak. It reminded me of the tension before a storm. Despite the flickering torches and bustling activity of the warriors, an unshakeable melancholy filled the air. It was a stark contrast to the freedom and simplicity of my rogue days, a life I now found myself yearning for in the moments of bleak introspection. When I was a rogue, decisions were mine alone and the burdens were lighter. Lucas, or Elias, had physically recovered from the wolfsbaneโs poison, his strength and vitality restored. And yet, his spirit seemed to dwindle with each passing day. Mentally, he had not recovered. Today, his usual restraint snapped like a brittle branch in a storm, unleashing a fury that startled everyone around him. Even a young servant, nervous and fumbling, bore the brunt of his anger for a minor spill. It wasnโt like him. The poison had changed him. At least, thatโs what everyone else

(Iris)As I sat by the waterfall, I couldnโt help but voice my doubts. โAre you sure the kid knows what he is doing?โ I asked Jasper, my voice tinged with worry. โFor the hundredth time, Iris, it was your plan. I only provided the idea,โ Jasper replied with a hint of exasperation. After we decided that Seraphina was the key to solving our problems, we realized we needed to meet her face to face. Jasper suggested that we might find some kids playing in the woods, just like we used to, and get them to pass a note to her.โHow do you know she will come alone? Maybe all you did was set us up to be thrown back into jail,โ I questioned, my anxiety bubbling up again. โI think she will come alone. Call it intuition,โ Jasper said, rolling his eyes. โIntuition,โ I muttered, shaking my head. โI wish I had as much faith in intuition as you do.โ Jasper sighed, the sound heavy with patience wearing thin. โIris, weโve been over this. If we donโt take risks, weโll never get anywhere.โ I knew he

(Iris)I took a deep breath, trying to steady my nerves before speaking. โSeraphina, thereโs a lot you need to know. Things have changed, and we canโt afford any more misunderstandings.โ Her eyes remained cold and skeptical, but she didnโt interrupt me. I took that as a small victory and plunged ahead. โWe found evidence of a plot against Elias,โ I began, choosing my words carefully. โIt involves Caden and his sister. Theyโve been orchestrating fights in the woods, trying to create chaos and weaken Eliasโs position.โ Seraphinaโs expression didnโt soften, but she leaned in slightly, indicating that she was listening. I pressed on. โCaden has his men try and kill Jasper. We ran off into the woods because they were trying to kill us. Then we got kidnapped by Cadenโs men. I think he was trying to make it look like Elias couldnโt control his pack. I know they wanted to make it look like Jasper and I ran off together.โ Seraphinaโs eyes flickered with a mix of emotions, anger, confusion

(Naomi)I traced all the symbols on the door of the room onto a piece of paper and went back to my room. The ancient pack house was eerie, filled with shadows that seemed to whisper secrets. My fatherโs old book was tucked away in my carry-on bag, a book he insisted I read. It was about blood magic and ancient symbols, something I had always thought of as old legends rather than anything real. As I settled down on my bed, I pulled the book out, its leather cover worn and cracking. The symbols I had copied from the door earlier that day weighed heavily on my mind. I needed to understand them, to piece together the motive behind their placement. The first symbol I found was one about blocking mind-link, a critical piece of information. That symbol had been at the center of the door, a clear indication that whoever placed it wanted to disrupt communication among us. The other symbols were all about the Lycan race, and none of them were positive. It was almost like a tapestry of

(Iris)The night stretched on, each tick of the clock a slow drip of agony. I lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, feeling the weight of the hours pressing down on me. The waiting was both excruciating, boring and nerve-wracking. The room was dark, the only light coming from the faint glow of the moon filtering through the thin curtains. The shadows danced on the walls, creating shapes that seemed to taunt me with their ever-shifting forms. Nervous energy buzzed through me like a swarm of angry bees, making it impossible to find any semblance of peace. I tossed and turned, trying to find a comfortable position, but the anxiety gnawing at my insides wouldnโt let me rest. Every creak of the floodboards, every rustle of the leaves outside, set my heart racing. After what felt like an eternity but was probably only thirty minutes, I felt Jasper stir beside me. He moved closer, his arm snaking around my waist from behind. His touch was warm and familiar, a small comfort in the midst

(Elias)The night air was cool, a welcome respite from the stifling heat of the day. I stood on the balcony, staring out at the moonlit landscape, lost in thought. It had been a long time since Seraphina and I had a proper conversation, and I missed the days when we were close. I remembered the times when we could talk about anything and everything. Her laughter would fill the room, and her smile was enough to make me forget my worries. But things had changed, they always did. War had a way of hardening people, building walls around their hearts that even the closest bonds struggled to penetrate. Seraphina had always been strong, but the weight of responsibility and the constant threat looming over us had taken its toll. I saw it in her eyes, the flicker of doubt and fear that she tried so hard to hide. I leaned against the railing, feeling the cold metal beneath my hands. I was confused, and stressed. I wondered if Seraphina felt the same conflict, the same pull between duty a

(Elias)I told them all the story of Eliasโs victory, and his mercy. Surprised murmur rippled through the crowd. Recondition, not killed. This was Eiasโs first benevolent act since becoming the Lycan King, a decision that marked a significant shift. I felt a surge of pride in him, knowing this was a step toward breaking the cycle of violence and hatred that had plagued our world for so long. I could tell my feelings were echoed in the soldiers around us. Cadenโs men joined our group now that Elias was the Alpha, and our men welcomed them.As Caden and Leila were led away, their expressions a mix of defiance and resignation, Elias turned to face his mother, Alice. Her blue eyes were filled with pride and relief, and I watched as they embraced. โYouโve done well, my son,โ Alice said, her voice trembling with emotion. โIโm proud of you.โ โThank you, Mother,โ Elias whispered. โI couldnโt have done it without all of you.โ Alice pulled back, her eyes searching his. โYouโve shown mercy w

(Iris)I had to follow Elias. Jasper, Naomi, Alice and even Seraphina had decided to stay with the rest of our group, tending to the wounded. But I had to follow Elias.As the first light of dawn began to stretch across the horizon, I could see the tension in the clearing before me. The duel between Elias and Caden was about to begin, and I felt every heartbeat echoing through my chest. The stakes were impossibly high, and despite my best efforts to focus on the plan, the anxiety I felt was nearly overwhelming. Jasper, Naomi, and Alice had decided to stay hidden with the rest of our small group, but I couldnโt stay away. I needed to see Elias with my own eyes, to witness the battle that would determine not just his fate, but all of ours. I crept through the underbrush, my heart pounding as the sounds of the duel grew louder. The clearing came into view, and my breath caught in my throat. Elias stood in the center, his posture fierce and determined. Caden, a towering figure of ar

(Elias)The first light of dawn had barely touched the horizon when Alice and I finally met. Alice, though weary and disheveled, stood tall, her blue eyes searching through the shadows for the son she had heard so much about but never met. My heart pounded as I approached her. I had always known this moment would come, but nothing could have prepared me for the emotional turbulence of seeing my mother for the first time. Her eyes locked onto mine, and for a moment, we simply stood there, absorbing the gravity of the encounter. I could see the faint glimmer of tears in her eyes. โElias,โ she finally whispered, her voice trembling slightly. โMy son.โ I nodded, swallowing the lump in my throat. โMother,โ I replied, my voice steady but laced with emotion. โItโs been a long time.โ Alice took a tentative step forward, her gaze softening as she took in the man her child had become. Her hand reached out hesitantly, and I met her halfway, our hands clasping in a tentative embrace.

(Jasper)The day had been long and grueling, filled with the clash battle and the thunder of war cries echoing through the forest. As the sun dipped below the horizon, leaving streaks of orange and red in its wake, our camp settled into an uneasy calm. Both sides went back to their camps to take a respite, tending their wounds and sharpening their weapons. I stood apart from the others, my mind racing with thoughts of the battle and the looming mission ahead. Despite our victories during the day, the weight of our impending tasks pressed heavily on my shoulders. Elias and Iris were in deep discussion nearby, their voices low as they plotted our next move. โIris,โ Elias said, his tone earnest yet tinged with urgency, โwe need to strike now, before Caden and Leila regroup. We have to rescue Alice and Naomi.โ I watched Iris nod solemnly, her eyes reflecting the flickering firelight. โI know,โ she replied, her voice steady despite the underlying tension. โAlice and I have a plan.

(Iris)The sun barely broke through the canopy of the forest as the day began. Our camp was a hive of activity, warriors preparing for the battle that we knew was coming. The tension was thick in the air, every movement and every word tinged with urgency. Using the knowledge Alice and Naomi had gleaned from the old book, we were ready. We had deciphered the symbols, understanding their purposes and weaknesses. Every warrior was briefed on how to counter the traps and spells that Caden and Leila would undoubtedly use against us. As the morning wore on, the sounds of the enemy approaching became clearer. The clash was inevitable, and as the first wave of Cadenโs warriors broke through the trees, we stood our ground. The battle erupted in a storm of clashing steel and snarling wolves. โElias! Over here!โ I shouted, pointing to a group of enemies trying to flank us. Elias nodded, leading a charge that quickly turned the tide in our favor. โRemember the words!โ Jasper yelled to th

(Iris)The argument reached a fever pitch, their voices a cacophony of anger and pain that seemed to echo through the entire camp. My head pounded, my heart ached, and I felt on the verge of breaking. Just when I thought I couldnโt take it anymore, a commanding voice cut through the chaos. โEnough!โ It was my voice that spoke the word, but it was Aliceโs in my mind. All eyes turned to me, and I let her speak through me. โThis is not the time for petty grievances. We are on the brink of war, and unity is our only chance of survival.โ Jasper and Elias exchanged one last, heated glare, before stepping back, their anger momentarily quelled by Aliceโs intervention. I let out a breath I hadnโt realized I was holding, grateful for the respite. I stepped forward, holding the magic stone, surrendering to its power. Its surface shimmered with a faint, otherworldly glow. โI have something important to show you,โ she and I said. I placed the stone on the ground and whispered Aliceโs

(Iris)I walked down the familiar path, the towering trees feeling like old friends. But this time, the path was crowded with hundreds of warriors, their footsteps creating a steady, rhythmic sound against the forest floor. The air was thick with anticipation, the scent of pine mingling with sweat and metal. Despite the presence of the warriors, I felt a gnawing emptiness inside me. Naomi was still unreachable, and the uncertainty of her fate weighted heavily on my heart. As night fell, the camp was set up, and the warriors huddled around their fires, sharing stories and laughter that felt foreign to me in my current state of mine. I found Elias near a small fire, the flickering flames casting shadows on his face. I hesitated for a moment before approaching him, my heart pounding in my chest. โElias,โ I said softly, drawing his attention. He looked up, his expression unreadable. โIris,โ he replied, motioning for me to sit beside him. We sat in awkward silence for a few minute

(Naomi)I sat on the edge of the narrow bed, my fingers tracing the rough seams of the thin blanket. I had been in this small, dimly lit room for a day now. The walls, adorned with faded, peeling wallpaper, seemed to close in on me, suffocating me with their silence. The only window offered a dismal view of the alley below, where shadows moved and whispered in the night. I replayed the events of the previous evening in my mind. After handing over the necklace Jasper had given me to Alice, I had hoped for a moment of rest. But I knew I hadnโt been subtle enough. The weight of my actions pressed down on my chest like a stone. It wasnโt long after the necklace exchange that Caden and Leila showed up. Their arrival had been swift and silent, their expressions a mix of cold determination and malice. I had tried to act nonchalant, but the flicker of recognition in their eyes told me they had seen through my facade. โYou know you canโt keep running like this,โ Caden had said softly, h

(Iris)Alice was skin and bones now, but her features were striking, and her eyes were blue like ice. Just like Eliasโs. I could see the family resemblance, the same cold, piercing gaze that felt like it could cut through stone. โYou are such a lovely-looking girl. So much like your mother,โ Alice said softly, her voice almost a whisper, yet it carried a weight that made me shiver. I guessed she could see me too. I stepped closer, feeling a strange pull toward her, as if an invisible thread was drawing me in. Her presence was both comforting and unsettling, a paradox that I couldnโt quite unravel. โOpen your eyes and I will see what you see. This is the function of this stone. A very powerful Lycan magic is fused in this. I gave it to your mother for safekeeping in case it fell into the wrong hands.โ โLike Caden?โ I asked, the name slipping out before I could stop it. Alice nodded, her expression darkening. โSure. But mainly their grandfather. He is an evil man. Twenty years ago
