Cassian's POV

I hadn't intended to overhear the King's farewell conversation with Elira. I'd been crossing the far side of the garden on an entirely unrelated errand, delivering a message to one of the estate's gardeners, when their voices carried further than either of them likely realized, the afternoon quiet allowing fragments of the exchange to reach me despite the reasonable distance between us. I slowed my pace without fully deciding to, some old instinct sharpened by year

    Selene's POV I heard about Theron's letter before I fully understood what it meant, the household's ordinary gossip network carrying fragments of the news faster than anyone bothered confirming the full details with me directly. One of the kitchen staff mentioned it first, in passing, while helping arrange flowers for the evening meal — something about a formal letter Lord Theron had sent to his own father, something about withdrawing consideration of an alliance. I'd nodded along, keeping my expression carefully neutral, and excused myself the moment I could manage it without appearing to rush. He'd written to his father. Formally. Withdrawing any consideration of the alliance our families had spent months quietly, carefully building toward. I sat with the news in my own room, understanding, slowly and with mounting discomfort, exactly what it actually represented. Not a delay. Not careful diplomatic hedging while he sorted through complicated feelings. A complete, deliberate

  • THE LYCAN PRINCESS THEY BURIED    CHAPTER 59: A Fragile Truce

    Elira's POV Selene found me in the greenhouse the following afternoon, her manner carrying none of the careful, practiced warmth I'd learned to distrust in nearly every previous interaction between us. The afternoon light fell soft through the restored glass panels, catching dust motes above the newly turned soil, and for a moment, watching her hesitate in the doorway before finally stepping inside, I found myself wondering what version of her I was about to encounter this time. She didn't announce any particular purpose for seeking me out. She simply settled onto the small bench near the herb beds, quiet and somewhat subdued, watching me continue my work without offering any of the bright, deflecting conversation she typically used to fill silence. I continued tending to the plants, uncertain what to make of her unusual quiet, waiting to see whether some careful, deliberate agenda might eventually surface beneath the unfamiliar stillness. None did. She simply sat there, present bu
