CALANTHA

Just as I had expected, by the time the ball was over, Kaiden was completely wasted. He had told Bradley not to bother him tonight, which meant I was the one stuck with the impossible task of getting him out of the hall.

With one of his heavy arms slung over my shoulder, I struggled to steady him as we made our way out of the hall. He was so heavy that I kept stumbling under his weight, muttering curses under my breath. I wished Bradley or even my friends were here to help me.

But they weren’t.

Eloise and Nyx had left earlier after we settled things with the maid— aka Ryker’s little spy. Honestly, I wasn’t even that surprised when she admitted he was the one behind it all. Ryker was insane and capable of the most ridiculous, childish things.

To make sure Kaiden knew the real truth about what had happened, I had asked Nyx to record the maid’s confession on my phone. When I showed it to him later, he would finally see that I wasn’t careless with the necklace and that it had be

  • Stealing the Heart of the Lycan King   The Committee of Alphas

    KAIDEN“You will do no such thing!” I shouted, my voice echoing off the high stone walls as I made to charge at Hera.But before I could take a step, the vampire king; King Rufus, was suddenly in front of me, blocking my path.“I would advise you stay right where you are, Lycan King.” He said firmly, his tone still respectful. Under normal circumstances, I wouldn’t have taken his warning seriously. But this wasn’t just any gathering. This was the Council of Alphas—the only body with authority over my crown and throne. Which explained perfectly why that bastard Slade had gone to the extent of calling them here. He knew it was the only way to challenge me.Jaw tight, my insides burning with helpless rage, I forced myself to stay rooted, my fists clenched at my sides. I could only stand and watch as Hera moved closer to Calantha, who still knelt on the ground, drenched in blood from a murder she never committed.She looked so small. So broken.But I didn’t need proof or an explanation.

  • Stealing the Heart of the Lycan King   Judgement

    CALANTHAI stood before the council, my hands and clothes stained with blood, my whole body trembling from the shock of what had happened just a few hours ago.Whispers floated around me as the elders exchanged glances and hushed words. Their voices weren’t loud, but they pierced my ears like needles. Everything felt dizzy. Like the world was spinning inside my head.I looked down at my hands. They were still soaked in blood. My eyes stung from all the crying, my face tight and sore.I had killed Tara.With my own hands, I had stabbed her over and over. The image refused to leave my mind.Suddenly, the doors to the chamber flew open. Kaiden stormed in, rage pouring off him like fire, his face like stone. Bradley followed closely behind.“Who the hell called for this damn meeting,” he barked, “and why is my Luna standing before you like this?”The room fell into immediate silence. He reached me quickly, pulling me tightly into his arms, not caring that I was covered in blood. I clung t

  • Stealing the Heart of the Lycan King   Battle of the Divine

    CALANTHA Twins were supposed to look alike, right? Or at least share a few visible similarities.But in my case with Lysandra… there was nothing. Nothing at all.Sure, we had similar powers, but everything else was completely different. From our faces to our eyes, from our voices to the way we carried ourselves. There was just no way Lysandra could be my twin. I refused to believe it.Tired of crouching in the tight, dusty space filled with cobwebs, I tried to shift. My legs were cramping, and the urge to march out there and confront Hera burned strong inside me.But her next words froze me cold.“Now that you know more than you were ever meant to,” she said calmly to Tara, “why should I keep you alive?”My heart slammed against my chest. Loud. Hard. Painful.Hera was still sitting, her eyes fixed on Tara, who looked absolutely terrified.“You’re close to the Lycan king,” she continued. “He trusts you. Listens to every word you say. We can’t have you whispering secrets in his ear no

  • Stealing the Heart of the Lycan King   Daughters of the Moon Goddess

    CALANTHA“The myths and legends painted me as the villain,” this goddess—Hera, if that was truly her name—spoke, her voice laced with honey and velvet, warm and terrifying all at once. It wasn’t a voice made for mortal ears. It coiled like a siren’s song. Seductive, deadly, dragging your soul deeper into her depths before you realized you were drowning.“They say I betrayed my sister. That I lusted after the same lowly werewolf she loved.”That story… it sounded familiar.Hera leaned toward Tara, her eyes gleaming with cruel amusement as she studied the priestess trembling before her.“But they’ve all got it wrong,” she murmured, “At least... some parts of it. Shall I tell you what really happened? About how the Moon Goddess; own sister, stole the man I loved and tried to have me destroyed?”My body stiffened behind the curtain, my breath caught in my throat.Holy fuck. She was the moon goddess’s twin? The stories about them weren’t wrong after all? I couldn’t believe what I was see

  • Stealing the Heart of the Lycan King   Hide and See

    CALANTHAA MOMENT LATERI followed Chief Priestess Tara into her cottage deep in the woods.When we arrived, she paused near the doorway to take off her cloak and shoes. I lingered behind her, letting my eyes scan the space. As usual, the house smelled thick of incense and herbs, a blend of dried roots and burning sage. Strange objects hung on the walls—old scrolls, celestial symbols, animal horns, and crystals that shimmered faintly in the low light.A wave of nostalgia hit me hard, stirring up memories. My hand moved to my shoulder, right where Kaiden had marked me. This was the very place we’d sealed our deal. Where everything between us had begun.Now it could be the place that ends us.“You want a drink, my Luna?” Tara asked, her voice soft behind me. She was mixing herbs into a cup.I turned to her and shook my head with a tight-lipped smile. “I’ll pass, thank you.”She shrugged and took a sip herself. Then she came closer, slower, her eyes scanning my face with quiet concern.“

  • Stealing the Heart of the Lycan King   Revelations and Decisions

    CALANTHA Through the small opening of the door, I peeked into Kaiden’s study, quietly listening to what was going on inside.Kaiden was there. So was Queen Adeline… and her. The strange girl who claimed to be his long-dead sister. I watched in confusion. She was seated, Tara standing nearby, examining the girl’s eyes and analyzing drops of her blood she had taken. The air in the room was heavy with tension, and no one was speaking.I couldn’t make sense of it.Back at the academy, when Lysandra and I had caught her and threatened to take her to Kaiden, I had second thoughts right after. Her response, her eagerness to be brought before the Lycan king felt too suspicious. So, I let her go. On one condition—we would keep a close watch on her.Until the event that occurred that same night. Kaiden had come into my room while I was asleep—or at least, I had been asleep until a faint noise at the window woke me. When I checked, I caught a glimpse of Kaiden chasing a shadowy figure throug
