HAZEL

I stared at Tommy, my fingers twisting nervously in my lap as everyone waited for my answer. “I don't know what to say,” I admitted, struggling to meet his eyes. “I've lived here my entire life. Even when things were difficult, I never imagined leaving. Where would I go if I walked away?”

“You don't have to decide where you'll spend the rest of your life tonight,” Tommy replied, lowering himself slightly so he wouldn't tower over me. “I'm asking what you want right now, Hazel. Do you want

  • The Lycan Heir’s Mate Was Never Weak   Chapter 9

    TOMMYMargaret lay on the ballroom floor while her mother screamed for the physician, and Hazel remained beside the couch, watching the commotion with the same frightened silence she had worn all evening. I turned towards the royal physician before anyone could demand that he abandon Hazel again.“Examine Margaret if she needs immediate attention, but Hazel's examination will continue,” I ordered, keeping my voice firm. “Call another qualified healer to assess Margaret. Neither woman will be left without care because this family has decided their suffering must compete for attention.”Mother Larkspur stared at me as though I had insulted her. “How can you speak like that while Margaret is lying unconscious?” she demanded, kneeling beside her adopted daughter. “You claim Hazel is your destined mate, and now you care about nobody else. Is Margaret's life worth so little to you?”“Her life is not worth less,” I answered, refusing to raise my voice simply because she had raised hers. “But

    HAZELI stared at Tommy, my fingers twisting nervously in my lap as everyone waited for my answer. “I don't know what to say,” I admitted, struggling to meet his eyes. “I've lived here my entire life. Even when things were difficult, I never imagined leaving. Where would I go if I walked away?”“You don't have to decide where you'll spend the rest of your life tonight,” Tommy replied, lowering himself slightly so he wouldn't tower over me. “I'm asking what you want right now, Hazel. Do you want medical treatment somewhere you can speak freely, without anyone deciding your needs for you?”“Of course she wants treatment!” Mother interrupted, stepping forward with an offended expression. “Nobody has denied her medical attention. We have always taken care of Hazel, and now you're making us look like monsters because she became weak while helping her sister.”“Mother, please,” I whispered, looking at her pleadingly. “I'm not saying you never cared about me. I just want someone to listen wh

  • The Lycan Heir’s Mate Was Never Weak   Chapter 7

    HAZELI watched Tommy stand before my father, his expression firm as the guests gathered around us, eager to witness the confrontation between the Lycan heir and the King of Larkspur. My father looked furious, but he lifted his chin and addressed the room as though he were the one being wronged. “Everything we have done was to protect our family, and I will not apologize for that.”“Protect your family?” Tommy repeated, his eyebrows drawing together as he glanced at me on the couch before returning his attention to my father. “Your daughter collapsed in front of everyone because her body could no longer endure what you have put it through. Your own physician has warned you about her condition, yet you continue defending yourselves instead of asking whether she is all right.”My father straightened his jacket, clearly displeased that Tommy had questioned his decisions in front of so many important guests. “You do not understand the circumstances,” he insisted, spreading his hands as th

  • The Lycan Heir’s Mate Was Never Weak   Chapter 6

    TOMMYI caught Hazel before her head could strike the floor, pulling her against my chest as the guests stepped back in alarm. She felt frighteningly light in my arms, and the sight of her pale face made something inside me tighten. “Someone get the royal physician here immediately!” I ordered, looking around the ballroom when nobody moved quickly enough.As I adjusted my hold on her, the sleeve of her dress slipped back, exposing numerous needle marks scattered across her arm. Some had faded into small scars, while others looked disturbingly recent, and my stomach twisted as I stared at them. “What happened to her?” I demanded, carefully supporting her head while trying to understand how anyone had allowed this.My Lycan stirred beneath my skin, filling me with a fury I could barely contain as I looked at the marks on Hazel's arm. Every instinct urged me to find the person responsible, but I forced myself to remain calm because Hazel needed help, not another powerful man making decis

  • The Lycan Heir’s Mate Was Never Weak   Chapter 5

    HAZELMy father pushed through the gathering guests, his face tightening as he looked from Tommy to me, while the remaining whispers slowly died around us. “What exactly do you mean by that?” he demanded, stopping directly in front of the Lycan heir. “Why would you identify my younger daughter as the woman you have spent twenty years searching for?”Tommy stood his ground, his shoulders straightening as he met my father's stare without the slightest hesitation. “I know what I said, King Larkspur, and I will not take back my words because you find them inconvenient,” he replied firmly, his gaze briefly shifting towards me. “Hazel Larkspur is my destined mate, and I have no intention of pretending otherwise.”My father shook his head, looking at me with the same disappointment I had grown used to seeing whenever I failed to meet his expectations. “There must be some mistake,” he insisted, spreading his hands towards the guests as though they were witnesses he needed on his side. “My you

  • The Lycan Heir’s Mate Was Never Weak   Chapter 4

    HAZELThe first thing I heard when I opened my eyes was my mother's voice, and for one foolish moment, I thought she had finally come to apologize.“She's awake,” she said quietly. “Call the physician before she starts making another scene.”My hope died before I could even turn my head. I lay on a narrow bed beneath the sloping roof of the attic, my entire body aching as though I had been beaten, while the smell of dust and old wood filled my nose. My throat felt painfully dry, and when I tried to sit up, a wave of dizziness forced me back against the pillow, reminding me of how close I had come to collapsing in the forest.“Mother?” I whispered. “What happened? Did someone find me?”She turned from the small window, her face hardening when she saw me looking at her.“You tell me, Hazel. What were you thinking when you started that fire?”I stared at her, struggling to understand what she had just said. “I was trying to leave.”“And you nearly burned down part of this house!” she sna
