{Lyra}

The ring pulsed between my fingers, a slow, living throb that matched the beat of my own heart. Sunlight caught the black metal and made it shimmer faintly, like it was alive.

I barely registered Dominic’s voice anymore—it sounded muffled, like I was underwater. My whole world narrowed to the ring and the way it hummed; a whisper slipped into my head, coaxing and tempting.

“Put it on,” the voice urged, curling around my mind in the most enticing way possible.

My hand moved on its own, slowly bringing the ring closer to my finger. I was a breath away from sliding it on when a sharp slap sent the ring flying from my hand, tumbling to the mossy ground and sinking straight into the dirt like it had never been there at all.

I staggered, gasping like I'd broken through the surface of deep water, as the world came back into focus. The buzz in my ears faded, and Dominic’s face snapped into view. His eyes were wild with worry, and his hands gripped my shoulders, his fingers digging in h

  • The Alpha's Fated Desire   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-FIVE 

    {Lyra}Something was wrong, and the hairs on my neck that were standing on end only confirmed it.One second, I was blasting corrupted wolves into ash with Kael’tharis’ blessing pulsing through my veins, and the next, my chest caved in like someone had punched through my ribs from the inside.I felt the mate bond shiver inside of me, then flare up almost immediately like it was on fire.“Dominic.” I gasped.My head snapped toward the mansion before I even realized I’d started moving. Something had definitely happened. The battlefield roared around me, but all I could hear was the rapid thudding of my own heart.Dahlia called after me, but her voice faded into the wind.Through smoke and blood and the stench of sulfur, I sprinted straight for the mansion. Past scorched soil and fallen enemies, through shattered doors and building rubble. I followed the trail of destruction—smashed columns, bodies of fallen rogues, blood-splattered marble like someone had painted with violence.Each ha

    {Dominic}Varen wasn't taking any chances. The second I took one step forward, he spun and vanished through the archway like smoke through a crack.“Go!” I barked.Ryker didn’t need telling twice. We bolted after him, boots slamming against the marble as our footsteps pounded in sync. The corridor twisted sharply, torches flickering madly on damp stone walls. My blood pounded in rhythm with my footsteps, the scent of blood and rot growing stronger with every turn.The heavy door at the end of the hall groaned open under my shoulder. The sound echoed through a stone chamber soaked in gloom.The distinct smell of silver, sweat, and fear hit me the moment I ran in, we skidded to a stop.The room was cloaked in thick shadows, broken only by a single lantern swinging from the ceiling. In its dim halo, I saw Reina.She was chained to the wall, wrists shackled in silver cuffs that burned angry welts into her skin. A gag pressed tight against her bruised mouth. Her arms hung limp, her head bo

    {Dominic}The battlefield smelled like blood, iron, and ash—an oddly comforting mix if you were raised for this kind of chaos. My claws sliced through the ribcage of another corrupted creature, its body crumpling to the dirt with a wet thud. I didn’t stop to look. That was a luxury I couldn't afford, especially not when a dozen more were snapping at my heels.A low growl vibrated in my chest as I lunged again, tearing through sinew and shadow. I’d lost track of how many corrupted creatures I’d taken down. My claws were slick with grime, my knuckles bruised from slamming into bone, and every breath burned like fire in my lungs.Lyra’s divine radius pulsed around us, humming with Kael’tharis’s blessing like a heartbeat in my ears. Every time a corrupted creature stumbled into her field, their limbs shook like wet noodles, giving us the edge we desperately needed. But even with the blessing, there were so many of them.Another one lunged. I turned mid-swing and buried my claw into its g

    {Lyra}My pulse hadn’t stopped racing. My lips still tingled like they were drunk on Dominic’s kiss. I could still feel the ghost of his breath in my hair, and hear the need in his voice.“We’ll finish this after the war.” Those words should not have felt as thrilling as they did and yet, here I was, sitting in a glorified war tent, glowing from the inside out like I’d swallowed a hundred fireflies.I didn’t want him to leave. My hand twitched to reach out, to tell him to come back, to beg for five more seconds. But before I could say a word, the knock came again. Persistent and oddly timed was the best way to describe it.Dominic paused, and his jaw tightened like it physically pained him to walk away. He finally got to the door, and opened it slowly.“Isaac?” Dominic’s voice softened with surprise.I sat up straighter at once. “Isaac?”My little brother peeked inside, a tuft of dark curls sticking up from his head like he’d been wrestling with his pillow or maybe just his thoughts.

    {Dominic}“I don’t like any of these plans,” Dahlia grumbled, tossing a crumpled piece of paper onto the command table. “And don’t give me that look, Felix. You don’t like them either.”Felix, halfway through drawing a map on an old file folder, sighed and scratched his head. “I mean… if we tunnel in through the northern ridge—”“—they’ll catch our scent before we’ve crawled past the first rock,” Dahlia cut in, sharp and exasperated.Juno cleared his throat. “Well, we could try distracting their eastern flank, then—”“—and what? Hope the distraction doesn’t cost us half our fighters?” Dahlia growled. “This is getting us nowhere. Face it. We’re trying to tiptoe around a damn fortress. What we need is not a plan. What we need… is an all-out attack.”The room went still. Even Mace stopped scribbling long enough to raise a brow.I leaned back in my chair and studied Dahlia with a dry smile. “You want us to storm Varen’s base with what? A couple dozen overworked wolves, a half-trained omeg

    {Dominic}Hearing those four words knocked the wind out of me in the best possible way. With her face still in my hands, I searched her eyes for any cracks, any sign that something was off, but all I saw was light. Pure, blistering light.“You’re okay,” I breathed, a little shakily. “You actually did it?”Lyra smiled, and I swear to the gods, the tower felt warmer for it.The skeleton began to glow from the inside out. Golden engravings flared to life on the bones like living ink, moving in waves until they suddenly vanished. I blinked, confused, until I saw the same engravings shimmer to life along Lyra’s arms, curling across her collarbone, crawling down her neck.“What the—”Before I could finish, the markings dimmed and sank into her skin like they’d never existed at all. But something was different now. The air changed.A warm, humming aura burst from her. It was both gentle and rich, like the scent of honeysuckle and firewood on a summer night. My heartbeat steadied. Every nerve
