Chapter Ninety-Two — THE FIRST KISS!

"If you keep pacing like that and don’t come in, you're going to burn a hole straight through my floorboards, Kelsey."

I heard Zeus’s low, rumbling voice cut through my second thoughts from the other side of the door.

“Damn it,” I cursed under my breath. Of course he was awake and he had noticed my presence.

I hadn't planned on coming here. I had spent two hours lying awake in my own bed, staring at the dark ceiling while the silence of the palace pressed

  • Surrogate for the Lycan King    Chapter Ninety-Three —Distracted by Desire

    Chapter Ninety-Three — Distracted by Desire"You're biting your lip until it bleeds, Kelsey."Rowan’s voice cut through the fog in my brain as she slapped a stack of freshly laundered linens onto the edge of my chamber table. I jumped, my hand flying away from my mouth like I'd just been caught doing something illegal."I am not," I lied immediately, pressing my thumb against my bottom lip where it still felt hot, swollen, and entirely too sensitive."You are," Rowan said, not even looking up as she began sorting the cloth. A small, knowing smirk tugged at the corner of her mouth. "You've been doing it since two days ago. Care to tell me what has you looking like a spooked rabbit?""Nothing," I snapped, perhaps a little too sharply. I turned around and stared hard out the window, pretending to be deeply fascinated by a dull grey cloud drifting over the palace courtyard. "Nothing is wrong. I'm fine. Everything is fine.""Right. And the sky is green."Rowan chuckled softly, shaking her

    Chapter Ninety-Two — THE FIRST KISS! "If you keep pacing like that and don’t come in, you're going to burn a hole straight through my floorboards, Kelsey."I heard Zeus’s low, rumbling voice cut through my second thoughts from the other side of the door. “Damn it,” I cursed under my breath. Of course he was awake and he had noticed my presence.I hadn't planned on coming here. I had spent two hours lying awake in my own bed, staring at the dark ceiling while the silence of the palace pressed in against my ears like a physical weight. My mind had refused to shut down. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw faded journal pages, ancient crowns, blood on cold stone, and the shadow of a lie two hundred years in the making.Eventually, my feet had simply moved. I had slipped out of my room, past the sleeping guards, and walked through the dark corridors as if pulled by an invisible thread, ending up right outside his heavy oak door.I froze mid-step, my hand hovering near the collar of my sof

  • Surrogate for the Lycan King    Chapter 91:   

    Chapter 91: Marcus POV "The ledgers from the third era don't match the current treasury reports, Marcus," Zeus’s voice echoed in my head, raw and heavy with the truth of Aurelia’s journal.I held the thick leather folder tighter against my ribs as I walked down the dim archways of the high archive corridors. The air smelled of old dust, dried ink, and cold stone. My mind was still spinning from what Zeus and Kelsey had shared with me earlier. The entries in Queen Aurelia’s hidden diary didn't just tell an old story; they laid out a blueprint. Generations ago, an unknown force inside the royal court had played a long, silent game of sabotage against the throne.Zeus had given me a single order: dig into the high court's modern administrative files. See if any current noble family was copying the exact methods of that ancient shadow.I pulled open the iron-bound door to the main historical record room, stepping into the quiet darkness. The royal library was usually empty at this hour,

  • Surrogate for the Lycan King    Chapter Ninety: Between Ink and Intimacy.

    Chapter Ninety: Between Ink and Intimacy.Kelsey's POVWe'd been home maybe a few minutes when Zeus pulled everyone into his study and locked the door. I was tired, my back ached from the carriage, and there was still Oakridge dirt on my shoes. I wanted to take a bath and rest on my bed. But I guess we don't always get what we want as what I got was Marcus pouring tea at midnight and Varian walking in circles with his glasses pushed up into his hair.I put Aurelia's journal on the table and no one touched it."So what did you find?" Varian said.I told them the King never knew about what he was signing. He thought the binding was a shield for the tree and to save the race. A man on the Council brought the plan to everyone else in small pieces, over months, until each of them had agreed to something they never saw whole."Does she name him?" Marcus asked."No. She calls him the scroll-reader. And I assume it was a man named Sorin. I saw him in my dream holding the scroll."Varian took

    Chapter Eighty-Nine: Side by SideZeus's POVWe left Oakridge before dark. Kelsey hugged her mother for a long time at the door. Maya cried again, and then yelled at Kelsey for crying. Madaline didn't say much. She just held Kelsey's face in both hands, then looked at me over her shoulder."Please take care of her," she said."I will."“Thank you.” Marcus and only one of the men had brought the plain carriage up from the waystation. Kelsey climbed in without a word, and I followed. When the wheels started rolling, she didn't look back. I saw her hands, though. They were tight in her lap.The road home was long. For the first hour, neither of us spoke. Marcus sat up on the driver's box. The inside of the carriage smelled like straw and old leather. Light came through the small window in thin yellow bars and slid across the seat.She sat on one side while I sat on the other. The space between us was about the width of a loaf of bread and I kept looking at it.*Move closer to her,* my w

  • Surrogate for the Lycan King    Chapter Eighty-Eight — The Quiet Hand

    Chapter Eighty-Eight — The Quiet HandMalakai's POVI like being in my study best before the sun comes up. The corridors were always empty then, and the servants hadn't started their sweeping. A single candle burned beside my elbow, and the palace is as quiet as a held breath. Nobody wants anything from me at that hour.This morning's pile was a thick one. Grain counts from the western stores, A complaint from the stable masters about a shortage of oats, three petitions from border villages asking for more patrols, each written in a different hand and each saying the same thing in nearly the same words. I read them all slowly as I have a belief that quick readers miss things.I dipped my pen and signed the first order. *Four additional riders to the western road, rotating weekly.* A small thing and anyone looking over my shoulder would have nodded.The tea on my table had gone cold but I drank it anyway.Twelve Lycan wolves were dead, and the palace has not recovered from it.
