Ryan

I couldn't believe what Rain said.

I stood there staring at her, feeling as though something inside my chest was slowly being crushed. I moved closer and lowered myself in front of her, hoping that if she looked at me - really looked at me, she would see the truth in my face.

“Rain,” I said softly, “I could never let you die.”

Her eyes shifted to me briefly, but there was no warmth in them, no anger either, just a tired emptiness that frightened me more than rage ever could.

  • The Lycan King's Revenge Luna   Someone else

    RyanKade found me just as the sun was beginning to set.I was in the courtyard, speaking with Priscilla about preparations for leaving Shadowbane, when he approached with that permanently irritated look on his face, like the world itself had offended him.For once, though, his mood did not seem driven by ego.He looked serious.“There is unrest in the North,” he said bluntly.I turned to face him fully.“What kind of unrest?”“I told you before,” Kade folded his arms across his chest. “People are talking, and not quietly. The Northern packs are offended.”“About what?”His eyes slid toward Rain, who was standing a little distance away with Malcolm, laughing softly over something Lydia had said.“They think you are mocking Sapphire’s memory,” Kade said. “To them, Rain is just a look-alike you parade around as your wife. They think it is disrespectful. Some think it is obsession. Others think you are dishonoring your dead Luna by replacing her with a weaker copy.”The moment those word

  • The Lycan King's Revenge Luna   Complicated feelings

    RainI expected Malcolm to come in with his usual calm expression and quiet concern.I did not expect him to pull me into a hug the moment he stepped into my room.It caught me so off guard that for a second, I simply stood there stiffly in his arms. Then I slowly relaxed.Malcolm held me tightly, the way family does when they have been carrying fear for too long and are finally able to put it down.When he stepped back, his hands stayed on my shoulders.“I’m glad you’re alright,” he said, and there was real emotion in his voice. “You scared all of us.”A guilty smile tugged at my lips.“I scared myself too.”That made him laugh softly, and hearing laughter around me that did not feel cruel or forced made something in me lighten.He studied my face for a moment.“You look better.”“I feel better.”“That is good,” he said. Then his eyes narrowed slightly in thought. “Do you want anything?”I surprised him by smiling.“Yes.”His brows lifted.“What?”“I want to train.”Malcolm blinked.

  • The Lycan King's Revenge Luna   Foolish hope

    RainRyan carried me back to another room like I weighed nothing.I was awake enough to know I could walk on my own, but I did not protest. My body still felt weak, and if I was being honest, there was something comforting about the way he held me. For weeks, my mind had been a prison full of fear, ugly thoughts, and strange visions that made me question everything around me. It made me push everyone away. Everyone except Malcolm. Now, with my head resting lightly against Ryan's chest, I felt strangely safe.Behind us, the house was still buzzing with tension. Priscilla rushed Hannah inside the moment she regained consciousness, and I could hear voices moving quickly through the halls, but Ryan’s focus remained on me. He did not say anything until he gently placed me on the edge of the bed.Then he knelt in front of me.For a moment, he just looked at me, as if trying to read what was left inside my heart.I looked down at my hands, suddenly shy under that stare.Then Ryan reached

  • The Lycan King's Revenge Luna   Never let you go

    RyanMy mind refused to accept what I had just seen.Sapphire stood there like she had never left this world.Like death had been a mistake.My throat tightened.“Sapphire…” I said, my voice breaking in a way I hated. “Is it really you?”She looked at me just for a second. Then her eyes turned soft - that familiar softness in her eyes almost destroyed me.Then she smiled, and disappeared, leaving me vibrating with the aftershock of a reality that had just been torn open and crudely stitched back together. I stood frozen, my shoes rooted to the floorboards, my lungs burning as if I’d forgotten how to draw air.My mind was a chaotic wreck. Sapphire. It had been her - the exact curve of her jaw, the way her hair caught the dim light, that specific, heartbreaking softness in her gaze that used to be my only sanctuary. Seeing her didn't feel like a hallucination; it was a wound reopened. But death isn't a revolving door, and the way she had evaporated - shattering into a thousand ribbons

  • The Lycan King's Revenge Luna   A dead woman's frown

    RyanFor a moment, I simply stared at Priscilla.“My mother,” she had said, and the words still sat strangely in my head.I knew Priscilla was different. That much had been obvious from the day I met her. Illusion wolves from Vankah were known for strange gifts, bloodlines touched by old magic in ways most wolves neither understood nor trusted. Even so, I had never once stopped to think about where her abilities came from.A witch.Priscilla’s mother was a witch.Under normal circumstances, I would have asked questions. A hundred of them. I would have wanted to know what kind of witch, how powerful she was, and what exactly it meant for Priscilla.But Hannah lay trembling on the floor, pale and drenched in sweat, and there was no time for curiosity.“Call her,” I said.Priscilla hesitated, and that alone told me her relationship with this woman was not simple. Slowly, she reached beneath her dress and pulled out a small pendant hanging around her neck. It was an odd thing, shaped like

I moved closer and lowered myself in front of her, hoping that if she looked at me - really looked at me, she would see the truth in my face.“Rain,” I said softly, “I could never let you die.”Her eyes shifted to me briefly, but there was no warmth in them, no anger either, just a tired emptiness that frightened me more than rage ever could.I swallowed and kept speaking.“Why would you think you are alone in this? You have people who care about you. You have Malcolm. You have Lydia, and Lydia loves you dearly. If anything happened to you, she would be shattered.”My voice grew quieter.“You have me too. I would not survive losing you.”Rain gave a small scoff and looked away, curling further into herself like she regretted speaking at all. The little bit of softness I thought I saw in her disappeared just as quickly.I reached for words, for an

    RainMy hands would not stop shaking.I could feel every pair of eyes on me - my father’s, Diane’s, Hannah’s, the guards standing at a distance, even Malcom’s quiet watchfulness behind Ryan. It felt like I was breathing through water.I swallowed, forcing my voice to work. “I…” It came out small. I

    RainBy the time my father finished speaking, my heart was beating so hard I could barely hear anything else.Hannah stood beside him, her chin lifted, her eyes fixed on me with a look I knew too well. Not quite a smile. Not quite pity. Something in between.I knew she was waiting for what I'd say

    Rain Morning came too quickly.I barely slept the second night in his room. Not because I was afraid he would touch me this time, but because my mind wouldn’t stop moving. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the training field again. I heard his voice, sharp and cold. I saw the way he had looked at

    RainThat night, I stood outside his door for a long time before I could bring myself to knock.My hand hovered in the air, my heart beating so loudly I was sure anyone passing by would hear it. The corridor was quiet now. The celebration was over. The whispers had died down. Everything felt still,
