Killian POV

"What was Draven doing here?"

The question left me before I'd fully decided to ask it, my eyes still fixed on the gap in the hedge where I'd caught the last flash of him disappearing.

I'd sensed the wrongness in the air before a single guard reported anything out of order, pulling me toward the gardens faster than reason alone could explain.

I'd arrived only in time to watch him vanish rather than answer for whatever had brought him here, and the sight of him disappearing through t

  • The Alpha King's Unclaimed Queen   Chapter 39: Cannot Lose Him

    Vivienne POVI felt him before I fully registered the door had opened, solid and real, his arms closing around me with a force that would have hurt if I hadn't needed exactly that much pressure to believe he was actually there."Vivienne." My name in his voice sounded different than I'd ever heard it before, rougher, stripped of every careful measure he usually applied to it. "You're alright. You're alright, I have you.""You're here," I managed, my voice breaking against his chest. "You're actually here."I felt more than saw the way his hands moved over me, checking for injuries with a frantic thoroughness that had nothing of his usual composure in it. His fingers weren't quite steady. I noticed that before anything else. Killian, who measured every gesture, every word, every flicker of expression with such careful control, was standing in the wreckage of a door that had nearly taken me from him, shaking as badly as I was.His hands paused at my shoulders, then moved back to my arm

  • The Alpha King's Unclaimed Queen   Chapter 38: Nothing Matters More

    Killian POV I was in the east wing with Owen, reviewing security reports when the alarm tore through the estate, making the reports in front of us suddenly feel absurdly small against whatever was happening beyond that door.I didn't wait for a briefing. I was moving before the first guard reached us, some old certainty already screaming through me that whatever this was, it had come for her specifically. Every second I spent gathering information was a second I couldn't afford to lose.The corridors blurred past in fragments, staff scattering and distant shouting carrying through the estate. I let the shift take me halfway, enough to move faster and hit harder without losing the reasoning mind I needed to actually find her. Two attackers came at me near the main staircase. The first barely had time to raise his weapon before I drove him into the wall, and the second went down under a blow that sent him sprawling across the floor. I didn't stop to see whether either of them would ge

  • The Alpha King's Unclaimed Queen   Chapter 37: The Hidden Enemy 

    Vivienne POV A faint electronic buzz cut through the silence, so unexpected that I froze, certain for one disorienting moment that I had imagined it.It came again, muffled and rhythmic, unmistakably real. My first instinct was relief, sudden and overwhelming. Perhaps it was Owen. Perhaps it was an emergency channel I had not known to look for. Perhaps rescue had arrived in a form I had not expected.I scrambled toward the emergency case and tore through it with far less care than my earlier search had allowed. My fingers caught the edge of a seam I had not noticed before. Beneath the rations and first aid supplies was a false bottom.Inside sat a compact satellite phone, its screen lit as it vibrated steadily against my palm.I stared at it, caught between desperate hope and a fear I could not explain. No one should have known this device existed. No one should have had any reason to hide a phone inside a panic room meant to be secret from everyone but the family it protected.I ans

  • The Alpha King's Unclaimed Queen   Chapter 36: Breach

    Vivienne POV Priya's grip on my arm was the only steady thing in a hallway that had turned into chaos within a few heartbeats.We ran together, a guard I didn't recognize leading the way with one hand hovering near the weapon at his hip. He shouted directions over the blare of the alarm, and I could barely process them fast enough to follow. Staff scattered around us in every direction. Some sprinted toward the lower levels, while others stood frozen in doorways, their eyes wide with the panic of people who had trained for emergencies they had never believed would happen.Through a window at the end of the corridor, I caught a broken glimpse of the grounds below. Shapes moved quickly across the lawn in the dim evening light, too many and too organised to be random. A body hit stone with a hard crack, followed by a snarl that raised every hair on my arms."This isn't like before," I said, breathless, as we rounded another corner. "This isn't like the poisoning or Draven at the gate

  • The Alpha King's Unclaimed Queen   Chapter 35: The Letter Arrives

    Vivienne POV “Miss Vivienne, this letter just arrived for you.”I looked up as the maid stood at my door, holding out a thick envelope.“My grandmother?”“Yes, miss. It was brought with the morning post.”I took it from her, my fingers closing around the familiar paper. My grandmother's cramped handwriting covered the front, and my stomach tightened.“Thank you.”The maid nodded and left, closing the door behind her.I stared at the envelope.I had been waiting weeks for an answer to the letter I'd sent my grandmother. Now that it was finally here, I wasn't sure I wanted to open it. For weeks, I had wanted answers badly enough to lose sleep over them. Now they were sitting in my hands, and I found myself afraid of what knowing the truth might change.For the past two days, everything Killian had shared with me on the terrace was still on my mind. The article Owen was trying to counter had added another worry, and Killian had been careful with me since that night, neither distant nor

  • The Alpha King's Unclaimed Queen   Chapter 34: Guarded Heart

    Vivienne POV “It's not as bad as it could be,” Owen said as we entered his office.He had the article pulled up on his tablet by the time we reached his desk, and I made myself read it in full, even though every instinct told me to look away before I finished the first paragraph.It was worse than I'd braced for, though not in the way I expected. The reporter hadn't printed the accusation outright. She hadn't needed to. She had simply described the scene at the gathering in careful, damning detail. The unanswered question, the silence that followed, my own composure described as “notably measured” in a way that made it sound less like grace under pressure and more like practiced evasion.Vivienne Cross declined to deny the allegations directly.I read the sentence twice.It wasn't a lie. That was what made it dangerous. I had refused to answer a question that had been built on an accusation no one had been willing to make openly, and the reporter had turned my refusal into evidence.
