CHAPTER 34: The Trap Springs

Elena pov

I could not breathe. Hell I forgot how to breathe. Words failed to make sense to me, and the word “little liar” continued to ring in my head numerous times.

But no matter how I tried to convince myself that I was in a dream, I knew that it was all true. His dominating aura alone is not something any dream could replicate.

Kieran looked nothing like the man I had watched laughing with his concubines. When he stepped out into the light, I felt my soul leav

  • The Lycan King's Captive   Chapter 60: Shadow

    Chapter 60: shadowElena POVThe days following the rogue attack blurred together in a haze of exhaustion and despair. The engagement ceremony had been postponed, but everyone knew it was only a matter of time before it was rescheduled. The interruption was just that, an interruption, not a cancellation.I should have felt relief at the delay. Instead, I just felt numb.The servants' gossip continued unabated. If anything, the attack had given them new material."Did you see how Lady Catherine fled?" Bertha said loudly in the kitchens, making sure I could hear. "Not very queenly behavior, was it?""Well, rogues are terrifying," another maid defended. "I would have run too.""Not our Elena, though," Bertha continued with false sweetness. "She actually fought one off with a candelabra. Quite brave for such a pathetic little thing."The backhanded compliment stung worse than an outright insult.My days became an endless cycle of work and pain. Catherine seemed more determined than ever t

    Chapter 59: what have i doneKieran POVI stood in the corridor outside my chambers, staring at the closed door. My shoulder throbbed where a rogue's claws had caught me, but I barely felt it. All I could think about was the look on Elena's face right before those windows shattered.The pain. The devastation. The complete and utter defeat.I had done that to her.I pushed open the door to my chambers, already exhausted despite the adrenaline still coursing through my system. The rogue attack had been perfectly timed, almost too perfectly. But my mind could not focus on tactical concerns right now.All I could see was Elena's face."There you are."I turned to find Catherine in my chambers, still wearing that white gown though it was no longer pristine. Her hair had come partly undone and her carefully applied makeup was smudged."How did you get past the guards?" I asked."I told them we needed to discuss security measures." She moved closer, her voice dropping. "That was quite the in

    Chapter 58: the rogues attackElena POVThe great hall had been transformed into something that could only be seen in dreams. White roses covered every surface, their sweet scent almost overwhelming. Crystal chandeliers cast dancing light across silk ribbons and golden candelabras. Every noble family in the region filled the space in their finest attire, their voices a low murmur of excitement and speculation.I stood along the wall with the other serving staff, a silver tray of champagne glasses balanced in my trembling hands. From this position, I had a perfect, unobstructed view of the raised platform where this ceremony would take place.Where I would watch my heart break completely. Catherine made sure of that.Kieran stood on the platform already, looking every inch the powerful lycan king. He wore formal black attire with silver embroidery that caught the light. His dark hair was pulled back, revealing the sharp angles of his face. His expression was unreadable, that familiar m

    Chapter 57: the engagmentElena POVThe next morning brought news that sent the entire castle into a frenzy."There will be a formal announcement," the head housekeeper declared, gathering all the servants in the great hall. "His Majesty has decided to make his courtship with Lady Catherine official. An engagement ceremony will be held in one week's time."The words hit me like a physical blow. My vision blurred at the edges and I gripped the wall to keep from swaying.An engagement. A formal, public declaration."This will be the event of the season," the housekeeper continued. "Every noble family in the region will attend. I expect nothing less than perfection from all of you. We have one week to prepare."One week. Seven days. One hundred and sixty-eight hours until I watched the man I loved pledge himself to someone else."Elena," the housekeeper's sharp voice cut through my thoughts. "You will be assigned to Lady Catherine's personal preparation team. She specifically requested

    Catherine PovI turned in panic.Father stood on the terrace, a glass of wine in his hand, his expression unreadable in the moonlight."Father. I thought you would be in the city tonight. The council meeting…""Was postponed." He descended the steps slowly. "I came home early and thought to check on my daughter. Imagine my surprise when the servants informed me you were not here."My mind raced. "I was with the king. I told you…""Were you?" He moved closer, and I could see his eyes now, sharp and calculating. "Because I sent a message to the castle inquiring about dinner arrangements. The king dined alone tonight. Heard You canceled it at the last minute."Damn. I had not anticipated he would check."I..." I smoothed my cloak, trying to appear calm. "There was a change of plans. I had... other matters to attend to.""In the slums, by the smell of you." His nose wrinkled slightly as he inhaled the air. "What were you doing in that part of the territory, Catherine?"For a moment, I con

    Chapter 55: secret meetingCatherine povThe evening air carried the scent of jasmine through the open window as I reviewed the letter one final time. Every word had been carefully chosen, each phrase designed to push the pieces exactly where they needed to be.I folded the parchment and sealed it with unmarked wax. Nothing that can ever trace it back to me of at all the plan goes south.A knock at the door made me tuck the letter into my body. I pretended to olay with my earings."Enter."My maid stepped inside, her eyes downcast."My lady, the messenger is here."I didn't look up from the mirror, continuing to remove the delicate pearl earrings Kieran had gifted me last week. "Which one?"My maid hesitated at the door. "The... the one from the Borderlands, my lady."My hands stilled. The Borderlands. Of course. I should have known they would send word tonight."Where?""The usual place. The Broken Fang."I felt my lip curl in distaste. That filthy establishment in the slums, reeking
