HOPE’S POV.

The hotel felt too quiet.

Every single time anyone looked my way, a part of me—the part that was still too sensitive and self-conscious from what happened—started to feel like they knew. If I saw two or more people talking, I felt like they were talking about me.

Suddenly, everything felt like it was about me—like I was the center of attention. And not in a good or flattering way. No.

It was the wrong kind.

It always was.

I stood a few steps away from the front desk, my hands wrappe

  • SECOND CHANCE: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED TWENTY

    HOPE’S POV.The guards found nothing in the forest.That alone frightened me more than the bodies.By the time the search party returned, the night air had turned colder, and the tension hanging around the pack grounds felt thick enough to choke on. Torches burned along the edge of the clearing while warriors moved between the trees, checking the area one last time before giving up the search completely.Still nothing. Still no scent trail, still no footprints, still no broken branches.Nothing that explained how three trained patrol guards had been killed within this territory without anyone seeing or hearing a thing.I stood a few steps behind Hunter as he crouched beside one of the bodies again. His expression remained unreadable, but I had spent enough time around him now to recognize the signs.The stillness in him was never a good thing.One of the older warriors approached carefully and lowered his head before speaking.“My King,” he said, breathing hard from the search, “we co

    HOPE'S POV.We found Garvin later in the day.He had taken a room overlooking the yard, and when we entered, he looked exactly as I expected him to relaxed, and annoyingly comfortable. Completely unaffected.He sat by the window, one leg crossed over the other, as if he had nothing to worry about at all.His eyes lifted when we entered, and a faint smile touched his lips.“You look busy,” he said.Hunter did not respond to that.“When will he strike?” Hunter asked instead.Garvin tilted his head slightly. “You mean Magnus?”Hunter’s expression did not change. “Do not pretend. And don't ask me stupid questions, Garvin. When does he plan to strike?”Garvin’s smile faded just a little.“He is already striking,” he said calmly.The words settled heavily in the room.Hunter stepped forward slightly. “Then why have we not seen him?”Garvin leaned back in his chair, studying him. “Because you are expecting a war,” he said. “He is not giving you one. Not yet.”My eyes narrowed slightly.“What

    HOPE'S POV.The moment we stepped out of the council hall, the air around us changed.It was no longer just tension sitting beneath the surface. It had risen now, settled into the walls, and spread through the castle like something alive. People were moving as usual—guards at their posts, servants passing through corridors, warriors training in the courtyard—but there was a difference I could not ignore.They felt it too.Hunter did not pause to acknowledge any of it, he moved forward immediately, his stride fast, his presence shifting into something sharper than before. Whatever doubt had been weighing on him earlier had been pushed aside. What remained now was more important than anything else anyone could have to say, and that was the safety of this pack. “Double the patrols along the entire boundaries around the pack grounds.” he ordered without slowing. His voice carried easily down the corridor. “No fixed routes. Rotate positions every two hours do I make myself clear?!"The gu

    HUNTER'S POV.Murphy hesitated, too long.Hope noticed too, I could feel her attention sharpen beside me.“Enough to leave scars,” Murphy said finally.That was not good enough. Not nearly.I leaned forward towards Murphy.“Specifics.”He exhaled slowly, then nodded his head, his expression deep with worry.“The war between the packs in the past was brutal, your majesty.”My jaw tightened. I heard that already, nothing new in it.I nodded. “And?”Murphy looked directly at me.“You led it.”The words landed heavily. I felt them settle in my chest like stone even though I already knew that much from all what Garvin told me last night.But hearing it from one of my own elders made it different_morw real. It confirmed what Gravin said in ways I wasn't ready to accept.“And according to Garvin,” I said carefully, “that war ended because I took something from Magnus.”The room went still and fot a moment no one answered.That silence told me everything. Not only was Garvin telling the truth

    HUNTER'S POV.Morning came faster than I would have wanted it to. I realized I was far from prepared.The meeting hall was already tense before I spoke.I sat at the head of the long table, my hands resting flat against its cold surface, my eyes moving slowly across the faces of the elders seated before me, some looked calm, some looked impatient, and some looked exactly the way I expected—skeptical.Hope sat at my right.Her presence steadied me more than anyone could ever know.The events of the night before still weighed heavily on me, Garvin’s words.The bodies in the morgue, the memory fragments that still refused to make sense, and the truth I had not told anyone else in this room—that I was expected to lead them into a war tied to actions I could barely remember.I pushed that thought aside quickly fo now. Now was not the time for doubt.I straightened slightly in my chair and looked around the table.“You all know why you’ve been called here this morning,” I said.My voice ech

    HUNTER'S POV. I stayed still for a long time after that, just listening to her breathing, while fighting my own thoughts. My wolf stayed quiet too as even he knew this was not something to interrupt. But my mind would not stop, it kept pulling everything together in ways I didn’t like. My jaw tightened. I turned my head slightly to look at Hope. She was still asleep, peaceful, safe. And for some reason… that made the guilt worse. Because if what Garvin said was true, then everything happening now was connected to m. To something I did, something I don’t remember. I closed my eyes again, slower this time. This time I didn’t see flashes. I saw nothing, and that was worse. Because even my mind was refusing to show me the truth. I let out a slow breath and whispered to myself. “What did I do…” My voice was barely there, but it felt heavy in the silence. Hope did not hear me, she only turned slightly in her sleep, her hand brushing against my arm. I looked at her hand for a

    HOPE’S POV.When we finally pulled apart, it wasn’t by much. Just enough to breathe. My chest rose and fell too fast, my heart still racing like it was trying to catch up with everything that had just happened.I could still feel his lips on mine.Still feel his hand at the back of my neck.Still f

    HUNTER'S POV.“Leave,” I said firmly.Seraphina didn’t move.Instead, she stepped closer again—too close this time.Before I could react, her hand reached out and grabbed my arm.I immediately pulled away.“Don’t touch me,” I said, my voice low.Her eyes widened slightly, like she didn’t expect tha

    HUNTER'S POV.By the time I left the meeting hall, my head was still spinning.The elders’ words echoed in my mind, over and over again. Alpha King. Responsibility. Truth.None of it felt real.Or maybe it felt too real.I didn’t remember anything about being a king. I didn’t remember a palace, or

    HUNTER'S POV.“How can I lead if I don’t even remember?” I asked. “How can I make decisions for people if I don’t even know my own past?”“You will learn,” the old alpha said, leaning back slightly. His eyes never left mine. “You will be guided. But first, you must accept one truth: you are the Alp
