TRADED TO THE LYCAN KING 205
LyraThe ancient door opened just enough for me to see what was hidden behind it.I stood still, my hand still pressed against the glowing stone as a narrow gap slowly appeared. A warm light spilled through the opening, unlike anything I had seen before. It seemed to come from the chamber itself, illuminating shelves, carved stone walls, and objects that had clearly been untouched for decades. Dust clung to the edges of some of the shelves, while the faint glow reflected off the glass cases scattered throughout the room, making everything inside appear strangely preserved.Raguel moved closer to me. “Lyra, be careful…”I nodded, but I could barely hear him. My attention was fixed on what lay beyond the doorway.The chamber was filled with relics.Old crowns rested inside glass cases, their designs unlike any royal crowns I had seen in the palace. There were ceremonial weapons, faded pieces of royal clothing, ancient books, and strange objects. Symbols similar to the ones on the doorwa

MiguelI had barely made it beyond the palace grounds when I heard footsteps behind me.I did not turn around immediately. I kept walking along the dark path leading away from the palace, my hands buried inside my coat as I tried to calm the anger that had been building inside me since the explosion.The palace was in chaos, Raguel would already be searching for answers. Whatever had happened inside the palace had changed things, and I could feel the consequences closing in around me.I had expected to feel satisfied. Instead, I felt trapped.The footsteps continued behind me for a few moments before finally stopping. I slowed down and turned around, my eyes adjusting to the darkness beneath the trees. Three figures stood several feet away, their faces partially hidden beneath dark hoods. I could not make out much about them, but I knew exactly who they were.“You are late,” one of them said.I laughed bitterly, unable to hide my irritation. “My brother's palace just exploded. Forgive

HabeelaBy the time Zevran and I reached the palace, the entire place was in chaos.Guards were running through the corridors, their footsteps echoing as they rushed from one section of the palace to another. Servants were carrying injured wolves toward the medical wing. Thick dust still hung in the air from the explosion, making it difficult to breathe. Parts of the palace walls had cracked, and several windows had shattered completely, leaving broken glass scattered across the floors.I stopped at the entrance, staring at the destruction around me.“What happened?” I asked one of the guards rushing past us.“The lower palace was hit,” he answered breathlessly. “The council chamber and several rooms beneath it were damaged.”My attention immediately shifted to him.“Where is Lyra?”“I don't know.”My stomach tightened, and I turned to Zevran.“We need to find her.”Before we could move, voices came from the main council hall. Zevran and I exchanged a look before hurrying inside.The

LyraI could still hear the man's voice long after he disappeared into the hidden passage.“Your Luna blood was never meant to save the kingdom. It was meant to bring someone back.”I stared at the spot where the man had been standing, my mind struggling to make sense of what I had just heard. The chamber around me was still trembling from the force that had thrown us backward, and dust drifted from the ceiling as the guards slowly pushed themselves off the floor. My breathing was uneven, and I could feel the strange energy in the room pressing against my skin.I turned toward Raguel. He had already gotten to his feet, one hand pressed against his shoulder where he had hit the stone. His eyes were fixed on the passage.“When are you going to tell me what you know, Raguel?” I asked.Raguel looked at me. “Lyra—”“No.” I stepped toward him, my voice shaking despite my attempt to steady it. “Do not patronise me, Raguel. Do not tell me you are trying to protect me. I am done with that.”Hi

RaguelThe moment I saw the figure step into the chamber, I moved in front of Lyra without thinking. I put myself between them, one arm slightly behind me to keep her back while my eyes remained fixed on him. Every instinct in me tightened at once. I knew that face. I had seen it before in old records, in reports connected to the faction that had been moving against my kingdom for longer than I had realized.The man did not look surprised by my reaction. He just stood there calmly. The faint light from the symbols carved into the stone doorway fell across his face, making it easier for me to study him.“You,” I said, my voice low.His mouth curved slightly. “Yes, me.” He glanced past me toward Lyra, and that small movement was enough to make my anger rise. I shifted immediately, blocking his view of her.“Do not look at her.”He gave a quiet laugh. “Still protective. That part of you has always been predictable.”My hands curled into fists. “You have been behind this.”“Behind what?”

LyraThe explosion tore through the palace foundations so violently that I lost my balance. The floor beneath my feet seemed to rise before dropping again, and the entire room shook with a deafening crack that seemed to come from every direction at once. The windows rattled violently in their frames, dust poured from the ceiling, and somewhere outside, I heard guards shouting as the walls collapsed one after another.“Raguel!”He reached for me at the same moment I reached for him.Another shockwave hit before either of us could say anything else. I felt my power react before I could even think about summoning it. It surged through my body, spreading rapidly from my chest into my arms until I could feel the energy gathering beneath my skin. I threw my hand toward Raguel, and a bright shield formed around us just as another force slammed into the room.The impact should have knocked us across the floor. Instead, it struck the shield and broke around us, the force splitting apart and ru
TRADED TO THE LYCAN KING 5: Didn’t You Hope For This?
LYRAI woke up feeling like I had been dragged through something I couldn’t remember. My body felt heavy and weak, with an aching, unfamiliar soreness. I lay still, trying to piece together fragments of the night before. Flashes—red eyes, a voice, a hand around my neck, the words, “Your husband sold
TRADED TO THE LYCAN KING FOUR: Did You Imagine Me Bending You Over?
LYRAThe color completely drained from Aaron's face. His palms tightened into fists, and his Adam's apple bubbled up and down. His lips thinned into furious lines, and I expected him to wake up and put an end to this. I expected him to call the deal off, drag me protectively to his side, and annou

LYRATwo hours ago, I was full of hope and excitement about how the night would play out, but now, my body was as heavy as lead, and my thoughts were in disarray. For the rest of the drive, Aaron had coached me about what to do and what not to do. He told me to do whatever Raguel requested of me
TRADED TO THE LYCAN KING TWO: My Husband Traded Me To His Business Partner
LYRAFor a minute, everything existed in echoes and blurs. I expected Aaron to laugh and tell me he was joking, or to tell me he had dismissed Raguel immediately and that they were currently hunting for another investor. But my husband did none of that. He continued driving through the quiet road
