Chapter 65 – A Promise for Jones

Selene’s POV

The moment Lucian appears at the doorway, my heart feels as if a massive weight has been lifted. His arrival is like a breath of air after drowning. He’s a mess—his dark hair damp with sweat, his clothes sticking to his powerful frame, his chest rising and falling with the effort of whatever trials he had faced to bring me what I needed. His skin glistens beneath the torchlight, and though exhaustion drags at his features, his eyes—those fierce, unyielding eyes—find mine and soften.

Without a single word, he strides forward, determination in every step despite the weariness in his bones. He places the ghost orchid into my trembling hands. The delicate blossom, pale as moonlight, feels strangely heavy with the weight of so many hopes. I swallow hard, my throat tight with gratitude and fear. Lucian has done his part. Now everything depends on me.

For a long, breathless moment, I just stare at the tools laid out before me: the worn, smudged n

  • Sold To The Wrong Lycan Heir   Chapter 67 - The Vow

    Chapter 67 - The VowSelene’s POVI never imagined I would find myself standing beneath the canopy of ancient trees, sunlight dappling the forest floor, dressed in a gown the color of fresh snow. The air feels cool against my skin, but my palms are clammy, my fingers trembling slightly as I try to calm the storm inside me. The delicate lace of the dress rests lightly along my collarbone, and the fabric clings softly to my shape, as if the gown was made just for me, though I know it was chosen in haste.Beside me, Lucian moves with quiet purpose. The sound of the fabric rustling as his fingers adjust the clasp at the back of my gown draws my attention. His knuckles brush against my neck, and the unexpected contact sends a ripple through me, as if his touch has unlocked something I had tried to keep hidden.He steps back slowly, his gaze lingering on me longer than I expect. His eyes sweep over me from head to toe, as if seeing me for the first time, and there is a flicker of something

  • Sold To The Wrong Lycan Heir    Chapter 66: mark

    Chapter 66: markSelene’s POVLucian’s gaze meets mine, his brows knitting together in a mixture of confusion and concern. I can practically see the thoughts racing through his mind, trying to make sense of what I have just asked him. I do not blame him, not one bit. From where he stands, none of this adds up. To him, I have always been a friend, someone he can rely on, someone he trusts. And now, out of nowhere, I am asking him for something so strange, so unexpected, that even I feel the weight of how absurd it must sound.I draw in a slow breath, steadying myself as I find the words. My voice comes out softer than I intend, the emotions heavy on my tongue. “It’s Mr. Jones’s final wish,” I say, each syllable careful and measured, as if speaking too fast might shatter what little understanding there is. “Before he dies, he wants to see me married. It doesn’t matter if it’s real or not. I just want to honor that wish, to give him that comfort in his last moments.”For a heartbeat, Luc

  • Sold To The Wrong Lycan Heir   Chapter 64 – Dawn's Tear

    Chapter 64 – Dawn's TearSelene’s POVA wave of relief crashes over me as Lucian pries the ancient grimoire from beneath a collapsed stack of decaying tomes. For a heartbeat, I allow myself to believe that salvation is within reach. My hands, slick with sweat and grime, tremble as I open the cracked leather cover. The scent of aged paper and dust fills my lungs, oddly comforting in our moment of panic.Fingers trembling, I thumb through the fragile pages, each one threatening to crumble under my touch. Symbols and scripts, some familiar, most foreign, blur before my eyes. For a fleeting moment, hope ignites in my chest... a warm, bright flicker.But as I read on, that fragile flame is snuffed out, replaced by a cold pit in my stomach. My shoulders slump, the weight of reality settling heavily upon them.Lucian, ever watchful, notices instantly. He leans in, his voice low and steady, as if afraid his words might shatter me completely. “Selene? What is it? What’s wrong?”I hesitate. How

  • Sold To The Wrong Lycan Heir   Chapter 63 – Remedy

    Chapter 63 – RemedySelene’s POVThe healer’s words cling to me, heavy and cold, long after he’s left my side. It feels like they’ve sunk deep beneath my skin, poisoning me with the same helplessness that’s overtaking Aria. I manage a stiff nod, murmuring a thank you I don’t mean. What else can I say? What else can I do? The healer gives me that look... the one filled with quiet sorrow, the kind of look someone gives when they’ve seen too much loss. I see the sympathy in his eyes, but I don’t want it. I can’t bear it. If I take even a scrap of that pity into my heart, I’ll fall apart right here in front of him, in front of everyone.And so, I force myself to move. To do something. Anything.I throw myself into the chaos of the infirmary. My hands tremble, but I keep them busy. I change bandages that are already stained through. I fetch buckets of clean water, though my arms ache. I whisper soft words to frightened children and weary parents, though my voice feels like it might crack w

  • Sold To The Wrong Lycan Heir   Chapter 62 – Tainted River

    Chapter 62 – Tainted RiverSelene’s POVThe world has never felt so quiet, so crushingly still. I sit frozen at Aria’s bedside, my fingers trembling as they brush her soft cheek, cool but not cold. I keep telling myself that’s a good sign. That she’s still here. That I haven’t lost her. But with every second that passes, the fear burrows deeper. Her chest rises and falls, so faintly I have to lean in to see it, to reassure myself I’m not imagining it.“Aria,” I whisper, my voice cracking under the weight of my terror. I nudge her shoulder gently, then harder. “Baby, please. Open your eyes. Look at me. Just a little.” But she doesn’t stir. Not even the smallest twitch of her lashes. Not the tiniest sigh.My heart pounds so loudly I swear it echoes in my ears. I can’t sit here and do nothing. I can’t watch my child fade in front of me. Panic propels me to my feet, and I bolt from the house, barefoot, barely noticing the sting of stones against my soles.Lucian’s cabin comes into view, a
