CHAPTER 133

Tarlyn’s POV

I was accused of being a murderer.

They said I killed him.

Hands gripped my arms hard enough to bruise it, and dragged me across the stone floor. The scent of blood and fear filled my nostrils. It was thick, choking, and suffocating. My feet stumbled and my vision blurred, but I didn’t resist. There was no point in doing so. The hallways twisted around me, familiar yet foreign under the torchlight, each flame burning like an accusation. But I hadn’t.

The words kept ringing inside my head like a broken chant as they pushed me forward. My knees scraped against rough stone, my cloak tore, and my hair clung to my face. Somewhere behind me, a voice barked an order, but I couldn’t make sense of it anymore. Everything had dissolved into noise, breath, and disbelief.

When I was forced through the great doors of the council chamber, the light blinded me for a moment. The torches were brighter here and so was the air. It was thicker. The elders’ faces blurred before s

  • THE ALPHA’S SILENT BRIDE   CHAPTER 138

    CHAPTER 138ISLA’S POVLucien froze for a second and hurried towards me before I could say another word. “Isla. Where have you been?”I looked around. Eyes bore into me. I didn't need a seer to tell me I had disrupted a mating ceremony. I swallowed. “I’ll understand if you decide to mark your Luna,” I said.My voice came out quieter than I intended. It was calm on the surface, but shaking somewhere deep underneath, buried along side sorrow and every emotion I had felt that might expose me as vulnerable. I wouldn't say I was calm, and even if I would it wasn't the usual kind of calm but the kind of calm that came only when everything inside you was chaos.Lucien froze. For a moment, or maybe a thousand years, the air between us didn’t move. He just stared at me, his beautiful eyes flashing like the last embers of a dying fire. Then his brow furrowed, and his lips parted slightly as though the words I’d spoken didn’t quite fit the world he was standing in.“You’ll understand?” he repe

  • THE ALPHA’S SILENT BRIDE   CHAPTER 137

    CHAPTER 137ISLA’S POV“It’s time,” Sayora said.Just those two words. They were small enough to be carried by wind, heavy enough to stop my breath. For a long moment, I didn’t move. The words hung in the air alive filling the small cabin with a gravity that seemed to have so much control on everything around them. I sat up slowly, the blanket slipping from my shoulders to pool at my waist. My fingers curled into the fabric as if it could anchor me. The silence stretched thin before I managed to speak.“Time for what?”Sayora’s expression didn’t change. “To return.”Her voice was calm. The calmness scared me. It made me want to break something just to hear it tremble.“The forest have spoken,” she continued. “The forest has served you to the best of it’s ability”I was still. Coincidentally, the first thing I felt that morning was stillness. This stilness carried no silence. Silence has a rhythm, a breath, a pulse, a heartbeat, and you can feel between sounds. This was deeper and heav

  • THE ALPHA’S SILENT BRIDE   CHAPTER 136

    Isla’s POV The night was restless. Even after the rain stopped and the fire dwindled, the air inside the cottage felt heavy. I sat at the table, holding the pendant; its silver edges felt cool against my skin. Lior was asleep in the chair across from me. His head tilted slightly, and his breathing was slow and steady. I watched him for a long time, still not fully believing he was real. Something about him felt like the world I had been missing. His presence calmed the corners of the house, filling it with warmth that didn’t come from the fire. Yet beneath that warmth was something else, moving through the air like a whisper I couldn’t catch. Just before dawn, the air shifted. The room grew colder, and the flame flickered as if it sensed a presence returning home. The faint smell of sage and ash drifted through the doorway. I felt it before I heard her. Sayora was back. She didn’t knock. She never needed to. The door opened softly, and her footsteps followed, slow and measured

  • THE ALPHA’S SILENT BRIDE   CHAPTER 135

    Isla’s POV The cottage was quiet, filled with the soft hum of Sayora’s lingering magic. Evening light streamed through the curtains, casting golden ribbons in the air. I sat by the window with a cup of tea that had grown cold. Even in her absence, I could still sense Sayora here. Her energy lingered in the air like a stubborn wisp of smoke. It was in the wood and in the floor beneath my feet. Being home again felt odd. It was safe, yet unfamiliar. Every corner seemed to remember me better than I remembered myself. I felt Sayora’s presence nearby, pulsing gently through the ground, calm and steady. The wind outside whispered through the trees, and for a moment, I listened as it filled the room. The silence here was never empty. It held a weight, as if the air carried voices just beyond hearing. Then a knock came at the door. I froze. Sayora never knocked. Another knock followed, softer and almost hesitant. I stood and set my cup aside. As I approached the door, a strange puls

  • THE ALPHA’S SILENT BRIDE   CHAPTER 134

    Lucien’s POV I spent weeks reminding myself that duty came before feelings. The pack was shaky and still healing from recent events. Everyone looked to me to restore order and stability, and that included naming a Luna. It was a decision I could no longer put off. A pack without a Luna was weak, unbalanced, and uneasy. Each day I delayed, I felt the burden growing heavier on my shoulders. That morning, as I walked through the training field, I saw her again. Alina. She was helping a younger healer carry supplies to the infirmary. She hadn’t originally come from my pack. A few months earlier, she arrived with a small group of displaced wolves seeking safety after losing their territory. I remembered agreeing to their stay, mainly because of her. She had shown quiet strength while asking for help, and I admired the way she carried herself. I watched her now as she moved steadily, her concentration unwavering. There was a calmness about her that I found hard to ignore. It wasn’t ju
