The Alpha's Wife, The Lycan King's Obsession Chapter 255 - The Village
They broke camp at first light, the strange, unnatural clouds still hanging low overhead, though they hadn't produced the storm Gianna had feared through the night. The entire group rode hard, following the general direction Wren's guidance had provided, pushing their horses as far as the animals could reasonably endure before finally slowing to conserve their strength for the days still ahead.Nolan rode in near total silence for most of the journey, his eyes fixed forward, his jaw set in a hard, unyielding line. Gianna understood the silence well enough. She recognized the same fear consuming him that gnawed at her own chest with every mile they covered, the terror that no matter how quickly they moved, they might still arrive too late.By late afternoon, exhaustion had begun taking its toll on both riders and horses alike, and Elmund suggested they stop briefly at a small village they'd spotted nestled at the base of a hill ahead, hoping to rest the animals and gather what supplies
The Alpha's Wife, The Lycan King's Obsession Chapter 254 - Wren
Gianna stared at the glowing pearls in disbelief, her heart pounding with a strange mixture of hope and confusion. She had expected, if anything happened at all, to hear Iris's familiar voice threading through her mind. Instead, when the voice finally came, it carried an unfamiliar warmth, softer than Iris's had been, but no less steady."You are not who I expected to answer," the voice said, gentle amusement coloring the words. "But I suppose that matters little now.""Who are you?" Gianna asked aloud, glancing around instinctively to make sure none of the nearby soldiers had noticed her speaking alone into the darkness."My name is Wren," the voice said. "I was a friend of Iris, long ago, before either of us passed from the world of the living. She spoke of you often, near the end. I did not expect to ever make use of this connection myself, but circumstances have clearly changed."Gianna felt tears prick unexpectedly at the corners of her eyes at the mention of Iris, grief and grat

The strange guard gave them what he could, or claimed he could, before Elmund's men bound him securely and dragged him back toward the palace for further questioning. He named the general direction of Vaelthorn, described a mountain pass that marked its border, and warned, with that same infuriating smile, that they would find the journey far harder than the telling of it.Back within the palace walls, Nolan wasted no time assembling his forces. He called together his most seasoned warriors, men who had fought beside him through the darkest days of his reign, choosing each one carefully with an eye toward both skill and unshakable loyalty."We leave within the hour," he announced, moving through the war room with brisk, purposeful strides, maps already spread across the table before him. "Pack light. We travel fast.""I'm coming with you," Gianna said, standing at the edge of the room, her arms crossed, her expression daring him to argue.Nolan looked up, and though concern flickered

"Vaelthorn," the strange guard said finally, his voice still carrying that unsettling, layered quality. "Though I doubt the name means anything to either of you. It matters little, since you will never reach it in time regardless.""Then why tell us at all?" Gianna demanded, watching him closely, searching for any hint of deception or hidden purpose behind his willingness to share even that much."Because my master enjoys a challenge," the man said, his lips curling into that same unnatural smile. "He would find it disappointing if you simply gave up the chase entirely. Where would the satisfaction be in that, when he finally completes what he's sought for three hundred years?"Nolan's grip on his sword tightened further, his patience wearing dangerously thin. "You keep speaking as though this man of yours is some kind of god," he said. "Explain what exactly he wants with my daughter. Real answers, not riddles."The guard tilted his head slightly, studying them both as though weighing
The Alpha's Wife, The Lycan King's Obsession Chapter 251 - The Trail
The palace erupted into chaos within minutes, servants and guards alike rushing through every corridor, checking every room, every closet, every space large enough to hide even the smallest infant. Nolan moved through the frenzy like a man possessed, his fury barely contained beneath a thin veneer of composure, his hands clenching and unclenching at his sides as though he might tear the walls down with his bare hands if it meant finding his daughter one moment sooner."Check the towers," he barked at a passing guard. "Check the cellars, the stables, every wagon leaving through the gates. No one leaves this palace without being searched thoroughly, do you understand me?"The guard nodded frantically and rushed off to relay the order, and Nolan turned to find Gianna standing near the empty crib, her posture rigid, her eyes dry despite the devastation clearly written across every line of her face."You should be crying," he said, moving toward her, uncertain what else to say in the face

The truth came out fully the next morning, once the chaos of the previous night had settled enough for proper conversation. Fenna arrived at Nolan's summons, examining the window where the guard's body had been found, her expression growing more troubled with every passing minute.Gianna sat nearby, arms crossed, her earlier fury from learning the full extent of what Nolan had kept from her still simmering just beneath the surface."You should have told me the moment that king made his comment," she said, not for the first time that morning. "I had a right to know my daughter was being targeted, Nolan. Instead I found out because a man died outside her window.""I know," Nolan said, his voice heavy with genuine regret. "I made the wrong choice. I was trying to protect you from unnecessary fear, and instead I put you both in a position where you didn't have the information you needed to protect yourself properly. I won't make that mistake again."Gianna held his gaze for a long moment,
