Violet

I fumbled with my hands, thinking about my biggest secret.

What was my biggest secret?

For a second, my mind went to Kylan—but then I realized that he wasn’t it. He was definitely a fear, and a secret, but not my biggest.

The voices were talking about my glasses—the thing I had been forced to hide my entire life. They had been my biggest insecurity.

A loud laugh broke the tension.

It was Kylan.

“No, no,” he said, the laughter only growing louder. He buried his head between his head, sighing. “No, I’m not doing this.”

He held an uneasy look in his eyes, and so did Nate who shifted beside him. Although Nate had been kind, also he hadn’t opened up about anything. The only thing I knew about him were the basics. Beta dad, noble blood, bitch sister.

“If you want to become captain,” Dylan spoke up. “I’m afraid you’ll have to.”

Kylan chuckled. “No.”

“We can be back before sunrise—but not if that box keeps talking to us,” Dylan didn’t back down.

Dylan had always been a serious person.

  • The Lycan Prince’s Puppy   Chapter 239

    Violet“This Kayden guy has lost it, hasn’t he?” Trinity whispered. We had skipped the East Wing for the time being and went back to her room for some privacy. That’s where I told her everything. All of it.I told her about Kayden seeing my eyes, the witches in the mountains, the strange raven, Kayden’s twisted request, and the council meeting.The only part I left out was what he said about being reborn. I was scared Trinity might actually snap if I told her that. With every word I said, her eyes got wider. I was starting to worry they might pop out.“And you want to go back and explain to him why you won’t use your eyes?” she asked as we stepped out of the room again. She leaned in a little so the nearby guards couldn’t hear. “The only thing you should ask him is which hand he wants me to slap him with. My right hand or my left or both!”I laughed at her simple solution. “Don’t tempt me,” I muttered, shaking my head.There were a lot of reasons running through my mind for why I shou

    Violet“What?” I shook my head in disbelief. “You want me to…speak in front of them? Me?”“You said you wanted to help without making your eyes glow, and I agreed to help you,” Kylan pointed out. “This is how.”My throat tightened, my heart pounded. I could barely open my mouth to greet anyone at the feast, where I had also failed to give a speech. How could he possibly believe I was capable of even uttering a word during a council meeting?And most importantly…“Will the king be there?”“He is the king,” Kylan lifted his shoulders. “Of course he will be there.”My lips parted again, but the words refused to come. I kept waiting for him to laugh, to tell me it was all some kind of joke, but there was still nothing. “Why me?” I asked. “Why do I have to be the one to do the talking?”Kylan kept his eyes on mine. There was something steady in them, something that told me this wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment decision. He had thought this through.“When I was younger,” he began, “and I wanted

    VioletA soft groan slipped past my lips as the bright morning sun hit me. The first thing my hand reached for was the empty spot beside me, and then I heard quiet footsteps through the room.I knew it was Kylan, and I was certain he wasn’t trying to wake me. Curious, I peeked one eye open, just enough to watch him through my lashes.What would he be up to today?His back was turned toward me as he stood in front of the window, and I could not stop staring at him, thinking about yesterday.Yesterday was definitely something. I had come clean to him about the information I withheld from him, and he was deeply disappointed, and rightfully so. We had talked about the Kayden situation, came to the conclusion that we didn’t see eye to eye, but I couldn’t say it was an argument.After everything that was said, he walked out because he needed some space, but as soon as that door closed, I did the one thing I swore I wouldn’t.I broke down.At first, I wasn’t even sure why. I thought it was b

    KylanI let out a surprised laugh, even if I didn’t mean to. I didn’t know what was funnier, that she had called herself a failing mother, or that she thought she might still have something to offer after I had already ruined everything.She was the woman who gave birth to me. My mother, and not just mine, but Lyperia’s mother. I had always been desperate for her love, and I still was. I remembered how relieved I had felt when I saw her standing with Violet at the feast. Even more when I bumped into her in the halls and she didn’t look at me with that same coldness I had learned to get used to.I understood why she was angry, and I accepted it. She had every right to be. For so long, I had wished she would forgive me.But now that she was here, standing in front of me, I wasn’t quite sure if I even liked the sound of what she was saying.She acknowledged something, and it meant I had to face something I wasn’t ready for, something I wasn’t even focused on at the moment. Her actually t

    KylanI needed to walk. If I stayed another second in the room, I would’ve said something I couldn’t take back. Or worse—I would’ve snapped at her…My Violet…Fergus looked me in the eye and made me promise I would never raise my voice at her, and I could not break that promise.I was furious, but more than that, broken.She should’ve told me.She should’ve told me from the start.The second Kayden saw her eyes.The second he started getting closer.And I wasn’t even going to get started on the mountains. All I ever wanted was to protect her, but she didn’t trust me enough to let me.My steps were hard and loud. Several guards glanced at me, but I didn’t care, just as I didn’t bother to acknowledge their greetings. I ran my hand through my hair, dragging my fingers across my scalp like it could stop the noise in my head, but it couldn’t. Nothing could.She lied to me, and I hated lies.I didn’t forgive easily. Especially not lies. I never had. It was just how I was. I cut people off t

    VioletKylan’s body stiffened. His hand slipped off the door handle, and his eyes went big as he turned around all the way.“What did you just say?” he asked, stunned.I gulped, knowing it was not exactly what he wanted to hear, but he was the one who told me not to lie to him again. My heart was beating out of my chest, but I held his gaze.“You told me to be honest with you,” I said, my voice steady. “So I’m being honest.”Even as the words left me, my mind was spinning. I didn’t want to go against Kylan, and I didn’t want to provoke him or turn this into something ugly. As a matter of fact, it had always been hard for me to be open about what I wanted, and what I believed in. I had spent most of my life watering myself down so I wouldn’t scare anyone off.But Kylan had told me to be real…So I was being real, and yes, I was shitting myself.Kylan looked down at his balled fist, then slowly opened it. “My hand,” he said, “could be wrapped around Kayden’s throat at this very second.”
