She Stole My Fate, I Took Her Crown Chapter7
Lyra ‘s POVThe Obsidian Apex Alpha came to take a Luna out of the Red Moon, and in the end he chose Selena.By blood and standing it should have been Victoria. But the night before the great feast, Victoria's wolf went into convulsions in her own chambers, foaming black, and when the sickness broke she came out of it with one side of her muzzle rotted through and a wolf that would never run straight again. A ruined Luna. No Alpha would look at her twice.Selena had been the only one with her that evening. Selena had poured her wine.My sister would poison the Queen's own daughter and put our mother's throat under that woman's teeth, all to buy herself a way out. She's ruthless in a way that never quite reaches clever, because she still believes a man is a door.I didn't have time for her. I had grain to buy and soldiers to feed.Another summer burned off the ice, and my mother's letter reached the Wolf Domain by courier — save your sister, she begged. Selena would sooner die than go
She Stole My Fate, I Took Her Crown Chapter6
Lyra ‘s POVI could have warned Selena. Sat her down, shown her what was coming, saved her from herself.But what right did I have?We'd each been given two lives. We were each spending ours as we saw fit, and that seemed fair enough. In my first life I clawed my way to the highest place a woman of the Red Moon could stand. I meant to use it. I meant to argue my father out of the marriage and walk into his council chamber as myself, and let every daughter born after me see it done once, so they'd know it could be done at all.Then Selena broke the frontier and the stray packs came pouring south, and my father went begging to the Obsidian Apex for rescue. Their terms were simple. Submit as vassals. Ten million in gold. And send us the girl.Everything I'd built in the first half of my life ended there, buried under a wedding veil.She didn't just cut my road out from under me. She cut it for every woman who'd have come after.She's been reborn and she hasn't changed a thing. So why wou

Lyra ‘s POV"You've gone soft in the head, sister. Let me help you cool it down."If Darian's line broke on the ice, every wolf behind it died with him. Selena had just walked my uncle onto the same blade twice in two lifetimes.Because she'd done it before. Three years out on the frost, desperate for a way home, she'd whispered treason into our father's ear about the man who kept his border standing. And the King had listened. He'd tightened the coin, held back the war-wolves, choked the garrison down to bone, and the pack lost battle after battle for it. Then she ran, and the stray wolves took her, and she traded every secret Darian had for one more day of breathing. Tens of thousands froze into the ground for that trade.She shoved at me with her hair still dripping, laughing like something come loose."I knew it. You want to take my place. Nobody stays but me, Lyra. Nobody."Madness. I looked at that smug, soaked face and almost pitied her.She couldn't survive the ice. This time
She Stole My Fate, I Took Her Crown Chapter4
Lyra ‘s POVHaving lost face to me, Selena went looking for a crowd that would hand it back.I came out of my uncle's clan house and found her in the middle of the street, hooded in men's riding leathers, running with that pack of idle highborn sons. She had a great grey borrowed from someone's stable pinned under her will, driving him with the old blood-song the Pact rites teach you, and any wolf with a nose could tell how thin her hold was. The beast fought her the whole way down the road. They cheered her anyway."No she-wolf bends a strange beast like that. You've changed how we see you, Selena."She drank it down and reached for more. She threw her hand out, snapped the grey around, and sent him straight at a child standing frozen in the middle of the road, meaning to run him under and call it sport.Damn her.I didn't care that I stood there in a woman's skirts. I dragged my veil across my face and cut the song out from under her, and the grey came loose all at once. Then I took

Lyra ‘s POVSelena went white. She bit her lip and knelt in the frost and held out her forearm, and the wolf took it while the whole garden watched. Victoria threw her head back and howled with laughter, and every servant laughed on cue.I didn't and in that garden, not laughing was the loudest thing I could've done.Victoria's eyes found me at last, and she knew me."You're back? The sixth sister they buried. Lyra."Outside these walls I'd died of a bloodline mutation. Inside them, a few still knew better.She circled me, lip curled. "The King's own blood, wearing that. Tsk. Have you bathed once since the frost took you?"Selena warmed herself on it, waiting for my turn to kneel.Victoria had the same thought. She snapped her fingers at her wolf, still bloody-mouthed from Selena's arm. "My beast wants a second helping. Bare your throat to her, little soldier, and I'll forgive the state of you."Baring the throat. The oldest surrender a wolf can make."Are you certain?" I asked her."
She Stole My Fate, I Took Her Crown Chapter2
Lyra ‘s POVThe Cold Plains broke my skin open in three days. Darian offered me a brazier and a warm tent, and I turned both down."There's no princess out here, Uncle. Stop looking for one."He studied me a long moment. "Royal blood or not, this place buries soft women.""Then teach me. Wolf, blade, bow, war-strategy — all of it. From today I'm just another soldier under your command."Something moved behind his eyes. I'd said the very thing he'd come prepared to say to me."Good," he barked, and he was grinning. "Then I'll hold nothing back."He didn't. At dawn we ran the ice, and he drove my wolf out of me over and over until shifting stopped tearing and started singing. Afternoons went to the bow and the blade. Nights went to his annotated war scrolls by low firelight. He'd ordered the garrison to show me no mercy, so they didn't. They picked me for every sparring circle and put me in the snow, again and again.I let them. When the bowstring split my fingers open, I buried my hand
