~Lydia's POV~

I stood in the shadows of the corridor, my heart racing with satisfaction as Serah's face transformed right in front of the visiting Luna. Veins spread across her skin like dark rivers, and her fangs lengthened fully. The strong scent of the Luna's blood had done exactly what I wanted, and Serah looked ready to strike.

The visiting Alpha appeared suddenly from the main hall, drawn by the strange silence. When he saw his wife facing Serah in that state, anger flashed across his fac

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 45

    ~Lydia POV~I waited in the shadows just outside the bathing chamber, my pulse steady but my mind alive with anticipation. Everything had been set perfectly. The water in the tub was scalding hot, mixed with a special blend that would burn skin on contact.Serah came out of the chamber carrying Silas. She looked tired, her eyes still carrying the shadows of the day, but she thanked Maribel softly and took her son toward the bathing room. I stood back in the shadows, watching her every move as she did not check the water. She simply lowered Silas toward the steaming bath, without even testing the temperature first.My moment had arrived. I burst into the room right as her hand hovered near the water, Jethro and two senior council members right behind me. I let out a sharp, desperate scream."No! Serah, stop!"I lunged forward and snatched Silas from her arms in one swift motion, pulling the baby safely against my chest. My voice cracked with perfect fake fear. "What are you doing? Can'

    ~Lydia's POV~I stood in the shadows of the corridor, my heart racing with satisfaction as Serah's face transformed right in front of the visiting Luna. Veins spread across her skin like dark rivers, and her fangs lengthened fully. The strong scent of the Luna's blood had done exactly what I wanted, and Serah looked ready to strike.The visiting Alpha appeared suddenly from the main hall, drawn by the strange silence. When he saw his wife facing Serah in that state, anger flashed across his face. He rushed forward and flung Serah off with one powerful push, sending her crashing against the wall to protect his Luna."What is the meaning of this?" he shouted at Jethro, who had just arrived with the others. "You have been hiding the kind of person your queen truly is, despite all the rumors we heard about her killing pack members! How dare you let her loose among us?"Jethro stepped between them quickly. "Serah is not what you think, and trust me, I am not hiding her because those rumors

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 43

    ~Lydia POV~I watched everything from the side of the grand hall, my anger simmering just beneath the surface. The birthday celebration for Silas was in full swing, with guests laughing and talking loudly. Jethro stood near the center speaking with an Alpha from another pack. Serah is still trying to control herself, which I hate with passion because I want her to lose and show them the beast in her, but the Alpha looked straight at Jethro and asked, "Why is it that your concubine is ordering your wife to stay back?""Ooh, I didn't notice that." Jethro smiled calmly and turned to me. "Lydia, stop."The Alpha's Luna smiled kindly at Serah. "You can be excused if you need to be, my dear."Serah stood up quickly and left the hall, which I followed right behind her. The moment we were alone in the quieter corridor, Serah started panting heavily. I stepped closer with fake concern."Why did you leave the banquet to come here and pant like this? Is something wrong?"Serah turned her face to

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 42

    ~Serah Pov~I sat up slowly in the chamber, still feeling the strange weakness in my body after the collapse. The door opened and Duskbane and Lady Luis walked in. They bowed low to Jethro, who was still sitting beside the bed."My lord," they said together.Jethro stood up without a word and walked out, leaving the three of us alone. I looked at them, surprised. "Why did you come?"Lady Luis sat on the edge of the bed and smiled in a way that felt strange. "My daughter," she said softly.The word sounded wrong coming from her because when did I suddenly become her daughter? Duskbane cleared his throat. "Actually, there is something that has gone missing. We asked your sister Lydia about it, but she said she knew nothing. So we wanted to ask if you took any magical portion?"I scoffed. "What? Why would you think I did that?"Lady Luis leaned closer. "Because of the death of Leo. We are not accusing you of it, but the way he was killed by you sounded strange. We heard you say his bloo

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 41

    ~Serah POV~I watched from the far side of the hall as Serah suddenly collapsed. One moment she was walking tall after leaving the council meeting, the next, her knees buckled, and she dropped to the stone floor. Jethro moved faster than I had ever seen him. He shoved the rogues aside when they tried to help, screaming her name as he scooped her up in his arms. "Serah! Serah, wake up!"The sound of his voice cut through me like a knife. He carried her straight to his private chamber, holding her close like she was the most precious thing in the world. I followed at a distance, my chest tight. So this was it? Jethro still loved her, huh? He still cared that much about her, because seeing the way he shouted her name and pushed everyone else away, told me everything I needed to know.I stood outside the chamber door for a moment, thinking hard. Was she really collapsing, or was this another trick to gain pity? No matter what, I would make sure she was sent away. The portion I had given L

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 40

    ~Serah's POV~I could not let it rest, the rogue's words kept echoing in my head as I walked through the lower courtyard where the servants worked. Maids carried baskets of fresh linens, rogues sharpened their weapons and cleaned armor in the open yard, while everyone moved with the steady rhythm of daily tasks. Leo stood among them, laughing at something one of the maids said while he helped stack crates.I marched straight up to him and grabbed his arm hard. "Why did you lie?"He turned, his eyes wide and the laughter died on his lips. "My queen… I do not know what you are talking about."Then the others stopped working instantly as the maids also set down their baskets. Rogues lowered their tools, and everyone stared at us in surprise.I pulled him closer. "You told me Lydia asked you to get close to me and said she wanted it to look like an affair. Now you stand here pretending you never spoke those words?"Leo shook his head slowly. "I swear, my queen. I have not said anything li

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 30

    Serah's POVI knelt by the stone basin in the servants' yard, scrubbing my baby's tiny clothes with numb fingers. The water was cold, turning my hands red from the tiny clothes I scrubbed. My son's little shirts and soft wraps floated in the suds, so small they barely covered my palm. I worked the

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chpater 29

    Lydia's POVI stormed down the corridor, cheeks still burning from the slap I'd given myself in my own mind a dozen times over. The baby's laugh echoed in my ears like a taunt, and my skin felt sticky with my own blood that he'd spat back at me. My fists were clenched so tight my nails bit into my

    ~Lydia POV~I stood at the end of the long corridor with a goblet of red wine in my hand, swirling it slowly, so the liquid caught the torchlight and turned almost black. Then I took a slow sip, letting the warmth slide down my throat.The palace felt quieter than usual tonight, like everyone was h

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 27

    ~Serah's POV~Tristan moved right up to Jethro, standing tall, his eyes locked on the alpha like he was daring him to blink first. His voice came out low, but it carried through the whole hall, sharp and poisonous. "How does it feel, Jethro? Seeing your wife defend another man? Bowing to him instea
