THE LYCAN'S SACRIFICE, Fated To The Beast. Chapter 200
Elvanya's PovThe crossing took eight days.The ship was steady and the weather was manageable and there was no danger on the water but the journey was not easy and it was not easy in a way that had nothing to do with the sea. It was the particular difficulty of moving toward something that everyone on the ship was carrying a feeling about and nobody was talking about directly.On the third day I found Tomas standing at the bow of the ship looking east and I stood beside him for a while."How are you feeling," I said."Strange," he said. "I have been away long enough that I am not sure what to expect when I see it again. When we left everything was still very recent and very loud. I am not sure what I will find when I go back.""The same place," I said. "With different ground.""Yes," he said. "That is what I am trying to prepare for. The same place with different ground.""And Kieran," I said. "How do you think he will find it."Tomas was quiet for a moment."He has not been back," h

Kieran’s PovKael told the delegation leaders everything that morning.He laid it all out. Mathe and the note and what she had said at the edge of the northern site. The transmissions being placed. The Void Court's plan running across generations. The second archive in the Eastern Isles. He told them all of it plainly and without softening it and when he finished he told them they had a choice."You can go home," he said. "All of you. The wound is closed. The fault lines are sealed. Your territories are safe. What you came for is done and no one here will think less of you for going home to your people."He waited.Two of the delegation leaders said they needed to return. One had a territory matter that could not wait. The other said he was too old and too tired and he had been away long enough. Nobody argued with them. Nobody made them explain further.The rest stayed.I had been sitting at the edge of the group the whole time and listening to everything and not saying much and when

Kael's PovWe left Mathe standing at the edge of the northern site and we walked back toward camp and the sky ahead of us was beginning to lighten and Luna was quiet for the first few minutes and I let her be quiet.Then she started talking."The transmissions were placed," she said."Tell me what you mean by that," I said."Veyra and Mathe found them in an archive," she said. "They did not receive them directly. They did not intercept them. They were doing research in an old restricted archive in the Western Mountains and they found a section of documents that described the Void Court's situation from the inside. Old documents. Very detailed. Completely consistent with everything else they had studied.""You think someone put them there deliberately," I said."I think the Void Court put them there," she said. "Not recently. Long before Veyra was born. Long enough that by the time Veyra and Mathe found them the documents looked genuinely old and genuinely untouched because they were g

Luna’s PovKael came to my tent and he woke me and he sat down and he told me about the note.He read it to me word for word and he did not add his own interpretation and he did not tell me what he thought we should do. He just read it and waited."We go," I said."Luna," he said."The information does not survive her imprisonment," I said. "That is not a negotiating position. That is just true. If she goes into custody everything she knows about the original breach and about Veyra's work gets buried the same way Aldred buried it for thirty years and we spend another thirty years working around a gap we do not know is there." I looked at him. "We go."He looked at me for a moment and then he nodded.We left the camp quietly. No soldiers. No Aldred. Just the two of us moving through the pre-dawn dark toward the edge of the northern site where the wound used to be.She was there.She was standing exactly where the wound had been, looking down at the ground where it had stood, and she di

Kael’s PovI read the name twice.Then I set the paper down and I looked at Eldric and I said: "Councillor Mathe.""Yes," Eldric said."She has been in every delegation meeting since this started," I said. "Every single one. She sat in the war council at the capital. She was present when we planned the resonance attempt. She was at the northern site.""Yes," Eldric said."She has been one of the loudest voices pushing for faster action," I said. "Every time the delegation debated pace she pushed for speed. Every time someone argued for caution she argued against it."Eldric was quiet.I thought about that. I sat there and I went back through every delegation meeting I could remember and I looked at every position Mathe had taken and I looked at it differently now. Every push for faster action. Every vote that moved the children into the field sooner. Every argument that reduced the preparation time and increased the risk."She was pushing us to go faster," I said."Yes," Eldric said.

Elvanya’s PovKael came to me after he spoke with Eldric and he sat down and he did not say anything immediately and I let him have the silence because I could see from his face that he was still processing what had happened in that conversation and needed a moment before he could put it into words.Then he told me.He told me he had sat down across from Eldric and said he needed to tell him something about Veyra and Eldric had looked up from his texts and something in his face had shifted before Kael even started talking, the way a person's face shifts when they have been waiting for a specific conversation and it has finally arrived."Did he already know," I said."No," Kael said. "But I think he suspected something. Not the specifics. Just that there was something about the origin of the first breach that the record did not fully account for. He told me afterward that there had always been one gap in his understanding that he could not explain and he had been working around it for

Elvanya's PovI was completely exhausted from watching Mira. I spent the whole night following her and then pretending to sleep when she returned before dawn. My heart kept pounding because I knew she was a spy working against the palace and the King. I still had to do my duties near the King durin

Elvanya's PovI watched the empty spot near the outer wall until my eyes hurt and tears pricked their corners. The moon slowly sank, and its pale white light faded from the courtyard. Darkness filled the courtyard again, heavy with menacing shadows. Finally, I left the window and quietly walked bac

Elvanya’s PovThe quiet moment I shared with Kael by the fire changed everything completely. I couldn’t forget the look in his eyes when he held my wrist, he looked tired and desperate. For a moment in the dark, he looked completely human.I found myself thinking about Kael constantly. It distracte

Elvanya's PovI stood still in the corridor. Thorne, the Beta, was looming over me like a mountain of stone and muscle. He had just finished threatening me, and he was laughing with a mean, cold sound. I kept my head down and didn’t move a single muscle. I was terrified he would touch me again or f
