SECOND CHANCE: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED FOURTY ONE
HOPE'S POV.One of the younger warriors suddenly entered the room quickly.“My King.”Hunter turned toward him.“We found a survivor from the northern patrol.”The man stepped aside immediately.Another warrior was helped into the room.Blood covered part of his clothes and one arm hung badly injured at his side.He looked barely conscious.I immediately moved forward to help support him toward one of the chairs.“What happened?” Hunter asked.The scout swallowed painfully.“They were waiting for us.”My stomach tightened.“Magnus’ men?” Garvin asked.The scout nodded weakly.“And the hunters.”Several people in the room went tense immediately.The scout looked shaken just saying the word.“They attacked from the trees.” His breathing quickened slightly. “Half the patrol died before we even understood what was happening.”Hunter’s jaw tightened.“How many hunters?”“I only saw three.”Only three.The damage they caused with only three terrified me.The scout looked toward Hunter again

HOPE’S POV.Morning light filtered weakly through the tall castle windows and I finally opened my eyes.For a moment I stayed still, disoriented from exhaustion. My neck ached from sleeping awkwardly in the chair beside the bed, and my body still felt sore from everything that happened in the forest.Then memory rushed back immediately.Magnus.The battle.Hunter collapsing in the cave.The poison.My eyes snapped toward the bed instantly.Hunter was awake.Relief hit me so fast my chest hurt. He was okay. He was still fine. He sat against the headboard slowly, one hand pressed against the bandages wrapped tightly around his side. Pale morning light touched his face, and even now he looked exhausted.Too exhausted.Dark circles sat beneath his eyes, and his skin still looked too pale despite the healers working on him all night.But what scared me most was the fact that he was already trying to stand.“Hunter,” I said immediately.He looked toward me calmly. “You’re awake already.”“

HOPE'S POV. The healers finally left the room one by one after that, leaving only two guards outside the chamber doors. Then it was just me and Hunter. The room became quiet except for the rain and the soft crackling fire near the far wall. I sat beside the bed silently, watching him. Waiting. Hunter looked pale beneath the dim firelight. Too pale. Like there was barely any blood left in his veins. I hated seeing him like this. Weak. Motionless. It didn’t feel real. This was Hunter. The man who tore through enemies like they were nothing just minutes ago. The man everyone feared. And tonight he nearly died in front of me. The thought alone made my chest ache. Slowly, I reached over and brushed some damp hair away from his forehead carefully. His skin still felt too hot. “You scared me,” I whispered quietly. No response. Just silence. My eyes burned slightly from exhaustion, but I forced myself to stay awake. I couldn’t sleep, not while he was like this. I leaned

HOPE'S POV.The moment we arrived back at the castle, panic spread everywhere.Warriors rushed through the halls carrying Hunter unconscious between them while servants and guards moved out of the way quickly. Blood still soaked through the cloth wrapped around his side, and every second that passed made the fear inside my chest worse.I stayed beside him the entire time.I couldn’t leave him.Not now.“Move!”“Get a healer now!”“The King’s injured!”The voices echoed loudly through the castle while the warriors carried him toward his chambers. Hunter still hadn’t woken up since collapsing inside the cave, and the longer he stayed unconscious, the more terrified I became.By the time we reached his room, several healers were already waiting.They quickly placed him on the bed while everyone immediately started working around him.One healer carefully cut away the blood-soaked fabric around Hunter’s wound while another prepared herbs and medicine nearby.The smell of wolfsbane hit the
SECOND CHANCE: CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED THIRTY SEVEN
HOPE'S POV.The weapon looked wrong somehow. Silver markings ran along the blade, and even from several feet away I could smell wolfsbane strongly enough to make my stomach twist.Magnus stepped back immediately after striking him.Hunter ripped the blade back out with a furious snarl before slamming his fist directly into Magnus hard enough to send him crashing through part of the ruins.The ground shook beneath us.But Hunter nearly fell immediately afterward.My heart pounded in my chest.Blood poured heavily from the wound while dark veins slowly spread outward across his skin.Poison.Goddess.The poison was already affecting him.Hunter still tried to fight despite the injury. He tore through another attacker seconds later, but his movements were slower now, less steady than before.One of his own warriors rushed toward him through the chaos.“My King!”Hunter turned sharply toward the movement so suddenly that the warrior froze.For one terrifying second, Hunter looked ready to

HOPE’S POV.The moment Magnus stepped out of the darkness, the entire atmosphere changed.Even the hunters reacted to him instantly. The growling creatures that had been circling me moments ago lowered themselves slightly as he approached, their glowing eyes fixed on him with unsettling obedience. The Kingbreaker moved aside without protest, and for the first time since this nightmare began, I understood clearly who truly controlled everything here.Magnus did not look rushed or angry despite the war already breaking out around us. He walked calmly through the ruins while distant sounds of fighting echoed across the forest. Smoke drifted through the cold night air behind him, and the silver markings carved into his dark armor caught the moonlight faintly as he stopped several feet away from Hunter.His eyes settled on him quietly.“You’re remembering faster than expected,” he said.Hunter immediately tensed beside me.I looked at him quickly and saw the change in his expression right

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

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 fe

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
