[Elian’s POV]

News in the servant’s quarters travels faster than a mountain fire.

I was sitting in the corner of the kitchens, peeling a mountain of potatoes with my left hand while Martha quietly hummed by the hearth, when the head servant marched in. He slammed his wooden cane against the stone floor, demanding absolute silence.

"The Alpha has made his decree," the beta announced, his chest puffed out with self-importance. "The engagement period is shortened. King Cillian will marry Princess

    "The mercenary lied," I told them quietly. "Kaelen is still breathing. The poison paralyzed him, and he is dying slowly in the meeting hall. The castle healers do not know how to fix it.""Then we just wait," Kelan said, a small smile returning to his face. "If the healers cannot fix it, he will be dead by tonight anyway.""No," I said sharply. "A man like Kaelen survived twenty years in the mud and the cold. His body is too strong. What if he fights the poison off? Worse, what if the Northern guards already sent a message to King Cillian to bring his own healers? We cannot sit here and hope the poison finishes the job. We need to make sure he dies today."Torin frowned. "The Northern guards have the castle locked down, Varis. We cannot walk in there with a dagger.""We are not going to walk in with a dagger," I said. "We are going to walk in with a savior."I looked down the narrow street toward the lower market district."Think about our position," I told them, leaning forward on my

    [POV: Lord Varis]Lord Torin and Lord Kelan were still shouting at each other over the spilled wine on the floor. The other nine lords stood in the shadows, looking like beaten dogs."Be quiet," I said. I did not yell. My voice was flat and calm.Torin stopped shouting and looked at me. "He took all our gold, Varis! We have nothing left!""We have our heads still attached to our necks," I replied, walking back to the wooden table. I pulled out my chair and sat down. "Sit down. All of you. Stop acting like frightened children and start thinking."Kelan wiped the small drop of blood from his throat with his sleeve and slowly sat down on a wooden crate. The other lords followed, pulling up chairs around the table."Why are we not packing the horses?" Kelan asked quietly. "If the Northern guards send a bird to King Cillian, he will march an army down here.""And who is he going to march against?" I asked, resting my hands neatly on the wood. "Did you sign your name on that mercenary's bla

    Gaius grabbed the other two, groaning slightly under the weight. We practically ran out of the infirmary and up the wide stone steps leading to the main courtyard.The freezing night air hit my face the second we stepped outside.The courtyard was loud and full of movement. Fifty elite Northern soldiers were already mounted on massive, restless warhorses. Torches burned brightly along the walls. Cillian stood near the front of the pack beside his giant black stallion. He was dressed in thick black leather armor, with two heavy swords strapped to his back.A stable boy ran up to me, leading my own white horse by the reins.I handed the two heavy medical bags to a mounted soldier, who quickly tied them behind Gaius's saddle while two other men helped the old healer climb up onto a sturdy brown mare.I turned to my horse. I grabbed the leather saddle horn and lifted my boot to put it in the stirrup.A large, heavy hand closed around my upper arm, stopping me.I looked back. Cillian was s

    He growled loudly, his golden eyes locked on mine. The beast was fighting hard for control, blinded by the need to kill."If you lose your mind right now, you cannot help him," I told him firmly, holding his jaw tight so he couldn't look away. "I know you are angry. I know you want blood. But Kaelen does not need a mindless beast right now. He needs his brother. Give me the King."Cillian froze. My words cut right through the red haze in his head.He closed his eyes tightly. His heavy chest rose and fell as he forced air into his lungs. Slowly, the sharp claws shrank back into normal fingers. When he opened his eyes again, the unnatural gold was receding, leaving the sharp, lethal focus of the Northern Warlord behind.He looked down at me and pressed his forehead hard against mine for one single second."Mercenaries," Cillian said, his voice rough and dead serious. "They ambushed him at the border. They used a paralyzing poison from the South. The Eastern healers are useless. The veno

    Elian P.O.VThe fire in the stone hearth was dying down to red coals.It was past midnight. For the first time since I stepped foot inside the Blackwood stronghold, the castle was completely quiet. There were no marching boots in the hallways. There were no war councils downstairs. Selene was dead, the blood curse was gone, and Kaelen was sitting safely on his father's throne in the East.I sat on the thick rug near the fire, wearing a loose cotton shirt. Cillian sat on the edge of the bed right behind me. He wasn't wearing his heavy iron armor. His scarred shoulders were bare, and for once, the tight, hard knots in his back were gone. He reached down and ran his fingers slowly through my hair."You should be asleep," Cillian said quietly. His voice was a low rumble in the quiet room."I don't want to waste it," I answered, leaning my head back against his knee."Waste what?""The quiet," I said honestly. "I spent my whole life waiting for the next bad thing to happen. Tonight, nothin

  • The Lycan King’s Hidden Male Omega: MM Romance   You didn't just kill a King. You just woke up the Warlord!"

    [POV: Lord Varis]The mountain watchtower went completely silent. The wind howling outside suddenly sounded deafening.My stomach dropped. A cold, sharp wave of absolute terror hit me. It was much colder than the draft blowing through the broken window. I looked at the mercenary's dirty, unbothered face. He actually did not understand what he had just done. He thought killing a King was just another job. He did not understand the web of alliances he had just set on fire."You let them escape?" I whispered. My hands started to shake. I pressed them flat against the wooden table to hide the trembling, but the wood rattled under my weight. "You let the Northern guards survive? You let them take the body back to the castle?""He is dead," the mercenary argued, looking annoyed. He crossed his thick arms over his leather chestplate. "What does it matter if he rots on the back of a horse or face down in the mud?""You fool!" I screamed.I slammed both of my hands hard on the table. The heavy

    The solid rock cracked under his fist, sending a shower of dust to the floor. The force of it snapped something back into place inside my head. Raw, pure fear cut through the fever haze. I pulled my hand back, pressing it tightly against my chest. What am I doing? I thought, panic cutting throug

    "Alpha."The word hung in the hot, heavy air of the room, heavy and completely damning. I couldn't believe I had said it. My brain screamed in horror, but my body didn't care. My inner Omega, starved and beaten down into the dark for nineteen years, clawed its way to the surface, demanding I give i

    I didn't know if I was dying, but the world burned down around me.The castle became a dizzy, spinning blur of grey stone and flickering torchlight. I was held tight against a chest so broad and hard it felt like being pressed against a boulder. The heat coming off Cillian's body felt like pure hea

    I couldn't look up, but I felt it. The whole feeling of the training yard disappeared. The air emptied out, replaced by a heavy, scary force that made every single Alpha in the yard fall to their knees without meaning to.Every Alpha except Torin. He was too busy wanting to hurt someone."Lick my b
