Cassian's POV

I sought Selene out the following morning, choosing a private moment in the estate's smaller sitting room rather than risking another corridor confrontation that might draw unwanted attention.

    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.

  • THE LYCAN PRINCESS THEY BURIED    CHAPTER 57: Theron's Desperation

    Theron's POVI learned of Bastian's formal proposal the way most household news eventually reached me — secondhand, through a servant's passing comment while I reviewed correspondence in the library, delivered with the casual indifference of someone who had no idea how thoroughly the information would unsettle me. I set down the letter I'd been reading and sat very still for several minutes afterward, the servant's footsteps already faded down the corridor, my own thoughts moving considerably faster than the quiet room around me suggested.I sat with the news for the remainder of the afternoon, understanding that whatever careful, patient restraint I'd been practicing since Elira's fair, direct correction weeks earlier had just run out of time entirely.
