The sound of my bedroom door being pushed open, woke me up.

I immediately raised a hand to my face, blocking the sunlight that had found a way in even though I put down the

heavy velvet curtains the previous night before I went to bed.

I blinked, my heart racing as Callum’s large frame filled my door.

A small part of the sunlight was on his face, I could see his dark eyes fixed on me.

He wasn’t in his wheelchair, and standing at six foot five inches, he didn’t look as terrifying as he did the previous night.

I was sure he had cleared out the maids on my floor because Anna had told me he always sent out the maids and guards whenever he wanted to stand from the wheelchair and stretch his legs.

I avoided looking at him even though I could feel his dark eyes pinning me to the bed.

The look in his eyes felt like a mixture of a command and something softer, something that made my heart race even after last night’s cruelty, when he’d called me ‘property’, while he roughly pinned my hands t

    Meanwhile, back in Moonclaw, the town square was buzzing with activity, and the streets were filled with the noise of hammers as they slowly rebuilt the town. Ryk stood near a half-built restaurant, holding a hammer and a chalkboard while giving orders and directions to a group of workers, for the first time in a long time he wasn’t carrying any weapons with him, moonclaw had entered an era of peace. He coughed as he dusted his dark hair, which was covered with dust, he still felt some pain around his body, he had gotten a few burn scars while entering into that fire he had driven through to save Callum and Keira. Catherine was nearby, attending to a worker’s injury, she used to be a healer, until they got married and she had agreed to be the one to sacrifice her profession and stay home for the sake of their child Abigail. Abigail was in charge of ordering and keeping the children in check and making sure they stayed safe, she had taken the younger ones to a building that was s

    The evening sun was golden and warm over Moonclaw, its golden light spraying across the green hills in the distance, making it look like a painting, with the grasses making it look even more surreal.Two weeks had passed since the disaster, and everything was slowly changing.The town was undergoing a new team for renewal. The streets had been swept clean of all the ash, and the homes were being repaired from the ruins of the fire that had nearly consumed them. Scaffolds filled the town square, not for execution this time but for rebuilding. A bunch of men had taken the task of carpenters and were hammering away, a few had taken the task of bricklayers and were laying stone and cement. Everyone was working together to rebuild the town. Even the children contributed. The children were laughing and playing as they carried water to the workers. The ruins from Lord Conoron’s rampage were still visible, but the Moonclaw people were ready to wash everything away and start over afresh, thi

    It felt perfect.It wasn’t too hot or too cold, it was perfect.Was this what heaven felt like?It had a strange calmness that pulled her from the darkness of unconsciousness. Her eyelids slowly opened, they felt as heavy as stone, her body was aching with a deep, burning soreness that increased with every breath she took. The smell of antibiotics and herbs filled her nose. There was a third smell: it smelt like smoke.Fire.She remembered the fire, the one she and Callum had been stuck in.So they were dead.At least they died holding each other together.She smiled weakly as the smell of smoke clung to her memory. She opened her eyes slowly, expecting the blinding light of some afterlife, or a heaven where she and Callum might be reunited. But instead, she saw a low wooden ceiling. Its pillars looked cracked but sturdy, and she could also feel the softness of a mattress under her.She expected heaven to have clouds not mattresses that smelt of drugs.A fire burned nearby, it was

    The townsquare looked like a battlefield.The ground was covered with blood and ash.No one spoke or tried to break the silence.The square had been divided into three factions.One side had the people of Moonclaw who had been dragged to the square by Moonclaw soldiers.The other side had lord Conoron, Isabel, and Konan, a great deal of the rogue soldiers they had, had left them and switched allegiance to Asher.The last side was Asher’s side.Each side stayed quiet.No one said a word.The scaffold was at the center, of the square, Callum stood there silently, his hands tied as he faced execution, lord Conoron had ordered barrels of oil to be kept around the scaffold, he had planned first to hang Callum, the after he was dead, the barrels of oil would be lit. Callum’s body and the scaffold would be burnt.The surviving townsfolk, surrounded by rogue guards, watched in horror, their hopes had been crushed, most of them had begun to accept their new reality, their lives were over under

  • The Chosen Mate Of The Lycan King   Chapter 107

    The town square of Moonclaw was filled to the brim.A scaffold stood at the center, an old wooden platform hastily built under Lord Conoron’s orders, its rope swaying in the evening breeze. Callum stood under it, his hands tied, his clothes torn, his dark eyes looking calm despite the rope tied around his neck. The surviving townsfolk were all gathered by rogue guards. They stood in a semicircle, their faces pale, and their hopes crushed. Lord Conoron stood at the scaffold’s edgeSmiling. His wilful eyes were fixed on Callum, as he enjoyed the moment he had long dreamed of, a Moonclaw king’s public execution, it had to be similar to the shame his own family had suffered years ago. Isabel stood beside him, she didn’t look the same since she had heard of Asher’s survival. Konan, stood behind them, whileEdgar, Beatrice, and Maya stood nearby, they were looking around the crowd nervously.The rogue executioner tightened the rope, and the rope got tighter against Callum’s neck. Call

    Alive?That was the thought on everyone’s mind.The hall was silent. No one had said a word, no one dared to. Even the guards held their breaths, waiting for Lord Conoron to say something.Lord Conoron was silent, his eyes on the guard that had delivered the news.He had an empty look on his face.He knew how hard it had been for him when he had first gotten to rogue island, it had taken a while for the former rogue king, Usher, to trust him and when Usher had finally trusted him, he had him poisoned, and then made him change his will, handing over rulership of rogue island to him, if he wanted the antidote, Usher had done as he said, but he never gave Usher the antidote, he had made Asher, usher’s son a pawn king. At the same time, he and Isabel ruled from the shadows, because he knew the rogues would only answer to a rogue leader and now that Asher was here, his presence posed a threat to the rogue army he had assembled.Callum stood between two rogue guards, their grips bruising hi
