Elone's POV

I ripped back my sleeves, exposing the jagged, ropey scars left by the silver chains.

"See?" I hissed, my voice echoing through the sudden silence. "Where were you when my wolf was screaming in that cell? Where were you when I had to tear my own flesh just to pull away from the silver? Did a single one of you care?"

"Every full moon," I said, my gaze piercing the crowd like a blade, "the silver dust in my blood would ignite. It felt like being incinerated from the inside out, over a

  • The Broken Mate: From Cell to Queen   Chapter 10 Those Who Stayed Behind

    Third Person's POVIn the shadow-drenched alley outside the Sunwood Estate, a black SUV sat like a silent predator.Damian Greyman leaned back in the rear seat, a cigarette pinched between his fingers. His dark gold eyes flickered in the rhythmic glow of the ember.He exhaled a final plume of smoke and crushed the butt into the center of his palm, seemingly immune to the heat.The passenger door opened, and Kieran Ashworth slipped inside, his shoulders soaked from the downpour.Kieran kept his voice low as he delivered a concise briefing on the carnage that had just unfolded inside the Sunwood Great Hall.Damian's eyes, previously half-lidded and bored, snapped shut into a predatory squint. His jawline hardened into a jagged edge of granite.A silent explosion of Alpha aura filled the cramped cabin. Kieran felt his shoulders drop under the sudden, crushing weight of it."The true Alpha-blood daughter of the Moonsilvers, trampled by a stray fosterling," Kieran shook his head, a grimace

  • The Broken Mate: From Cell to Queen   Chapter 9 The Severed Mating

    Elone's POVThe hall fell into a tomb-like silence.Aldric and Isolde traded a look—half confused, half incredulous—as if I were speaking a language they didn't understand.I glanced up the stairs at Astoria, who was still leaning into Marcus's side."Look at them. They're a perfect match," I said, my voice cutting through the quiet. "A Gamma and a fraud of an Alpha's daughter. I'm done being the thorn in their little love story."Aldric stormed forward, his Alpha aura flared in a suffocating wave of fury. "Have you lost your mind, Elone? Did that fall scramble your brain? A mating contract isn't something you throw away just because you're having a tantrum!"He slammed his palm onto the oak table, the wood splintering under his strength.His aura hit me like a physical wall, sending a fresh spike of agony through my scarred ankle. I didn't bow. I didn't even blink."Are you really this jealous of Astoria?" he growled. "Marcus has spent time with her for pack business, and you're read

  • The Broken Mate: From Cell to Queen   Chapter 8 The Downward Spiral

    Elone's POVThe sound of shattering crystal rang through the hall like a gunshot.As the vessel disintegrated, the iron-clad shell I'd spent all night reinforcing finally crumbled. I was exposed. Raw.My phone buzzed in my pocket. Once. Twice. Three times.But the roar of the crowd was too loud, and my focus was pinned entirely on the glass of laurel wine in my hand.I raised it to my lips and drained it in one go.Isolde's pupils contracted to pinpricks.She caught a whiff of something bitter—something that didn't belong in laurel wine—drifting from the rim. "No—!"Her voice was a jagged scream. She lunged forward, her nails digging into the arm of a nearby pack member so hard she drew blood. "Call the Med-Center! Now! Get a doctor here!"Her hands were shaking uncontrollably.Then, the sound of a chair flipping over echoed from the kitchen. A thin, frail-looking server stumbled out, collapsing to her knees in the center of the hall."It was me! I put something in Astoria's wine!"Th

    Elone's POVI ripped back my sleeves, exposing the jagged, ropey scars left by the silver chains."See?" I hissed, my voice echoing through the sudden silence. "Where were you when my wolf was screaming in that cell? Where were you when I had to tear my own flesh just to pull away from the silver? Did a single one of you care?""Every full moon," I said, my gaze piercing the crowd like a blade, "the silver dust in my blood would ignite. It felt like being incinerated from the inside out, over and over again. But it's fine. After three years, I've grown quite fond of the taste of being burned alive."The high-bred Alpha daughters, girls who had never known anything but silk and luxury, went deathly pale. Some covered their mouths; others looked away, unable to stomach the sight of my mangled skin."Is this too much for you? This is nothing. I have dozens more on my back exactly like this."I stared down the aristocrats who looked at me with such disdain. "Do you want me to strip right

  • The Broken Mate: From Cell to Queen   Chapter 6 The Silence of the Framed

    Elone's POVI looked at every face in the room. Finally, my gaze settled on Astoria."Yes," I said, my voice steady, cutting through the murmurs. "I was in Hollowstone. I spent three full years in that hellhole."Astoria took a frantic step toward me, reaching for my wrist, her voice a soft, tremulous whisper. "Elone, please... I didn't mean to let it slip. Don't be angry..."I recoiled, yanking my arm back with such force it caught her off guard.It was exactly what she wanted. She "tripped" over the hem of her silver silk gown, losing her balance and tumbling backward.No one had cleared the shards of the broken wine glass yet."Ah—!" A sharp cry tore from her throat as she collapsed directly into the mess of glass and spilled blood.Marcus was a blur of motion. He dropped to one knee, ignoring the glass biting into his own skin, and gathered Astoria into his arms.She whimpered, cradling her hand. Shards were embedded deep in her palm; dark red blood oozed through her fingers, pain

  • The Broken Mate: From Cell to Queen   Chapter 5 The Same Blade

    Elone's POVI wiped the corner of my mouth with the back of my hand."Tell her I'm unwell," I said coldly. "I won't be attending."Silence stretched for two beats.The maid's voice dropped, shedding its thin veil of politeness. "Luna Isolde told me to remind you: today is Astoria's birthday. If you don't show, the world will think the Moonsilver pack is fractured. The Council might reconsider their—mercy—toward you."She leaned in, her voice a sharp warning. "Remember, the silver chains in Hollowstone are always hungry for more.""In this entire pack, when have Astoria and I ever been at peace?" I let my aura flare—a cold, jagged aura that made the omega maid flinch and pin her eyes to the floor.I didn't wait for her response. I headed downstairs.In the grand hall, Astoria was a vision of perfection, surrounded by the daughters of high-ranking Alphas. She held a crystal flute of crimson deer blood wine, tilting it elegantly toward her lips.Suddenly, a shrill scream pierced the air.
