I was walking back to my room after another supervised walk through the halls, with my mind still full of the image of Alejandro breaking that guard's arm, when I heard voices coming from the throne room.

The doors were open, which was unusual, and torchlight spilled out into the corridor like liquid gold, painting the stone floor in shades of orange and red.

I should have kept walking. I should have gone back to my room and closed the d

  • The Lycan king's Forbidden Obssesion   Chapter 31: The Vigil

    The second time I woke, the fire had burned low, and the room was darker, and the weight of the blankets was heavy on my chest. I did not know how much time had passed. Maybe hours or days, but I knew that Alejandro was still there.He had not moved from the chair.But he had changed. His head was bowed, and his eyes were closed, and for a moment I thought he was asleep. His breathing was slow and steady, his hands were limp in his lap, and the tension in his shoulders had eased, just a little. The firelight cast shadows across his face, and I could see the exhaustion written there, in the lines around his eyes and the set of his jaw.Then his eyes opened, and they found mine immediately. It was like he had been waiting for me to wake, like he had been listening to my breathing and counting my heartbeats and holding himself together by sheer will."You should not be awake," he said. His voice was low and rough, and there was no anger in it,

    Alejandro's voice came from far away, muffled, like I was hearing it from underwater. I tried to answer, but my tongue was heavy, and my lips would not move."Someone help her!" Another voice yelled.That was Doña Beatriz's voice, sharp with fear. I heard chairs scraping against the floor and footsteps running toward me."Serena, stay with me."Alejandro's face appeared above mine, his golden eyes wide with panic, and his hands were on my face, warm and shaking.I tried to say something, but the darkness was already swallowing me, and then there was nothing at all.I woke to the sound of roaring.It was not an animal roar, and it was not thunder. It was Alejandro's voice, low and loud and full of rage. It echoed off the stone walls and shook the chandeliers and sent the nobles scrambling for the doors."Who did this?" he shouted, and his voice was ice. "Who poisoned her?"I tried to open my eye

    Alejandro finally broke the silence."Let's go back now. We've done enough tours for today."I nodded. Because I was already exhausted both from walking and seeing this dungeon.Alejandro walked me back to my room, stood for just a bit at my door, as if he was thinking hard whether he should stay or not. I could feel his eyes looking down at my body with strong desires and needs. But his facial expression showed that he was fighting to push his desires down, and he had to move before they took control over him.He said goodnight, turned and left in quick steps.I walked into my room, sat on the bed, and pressed my hands to my chest that was pounding so hard. I thought of how he looked at me. Like he was tired of holding back his desires, and he was ready to feel every inch of my body, and claim me as his fully. I thought of how his lips had claimed mine, the first night he touched me, before he stopped himself. I touched my lips, and

    The ring stayed on my finger for three days.I did not take it off, not even when I slept, or when I bathed. The silver was warm against my skin, and the weight of it was comforting, and every time I looked down at my hand, I thought of Alejandro's mother and the life she had lived and the son she had left behind. I caught myself touching it sometimes, twisting it around my finger, and I did not know if that was a habit or a need.Ramona had told me that the ring was a symbol of the bond, but it felt like something more. It felt like a promise, and I did not know if I was ready to make promises, but I was not ready to let go of it either. Every morning when I woke up, I checked to make sure it was still there, and every night before I fell asleep, I pressed it against my chest and thought about the king who had given it to me.On the fourth day, I went looking for Alejandro.I found him in the throne room, alone, sitting on his throne with h

    The morning after I moved into my new room, Ramona came to visit me.She tried to walk inside without knocking as usual, like she had lived in my room for years instead of just visiting. But the door did not open and she had to knock.When I opened the door, she had a face of surprise, because she must have expected the room to be the same as the previous one. But it was not.She walked in, with her silver braid hanging over her shoulder. Her grey eyes were sharp as always, but there was something softer about her today, something almost gentle. She carried a small wooden box in her hands, carved with symbols I did not recognize, and she set it on the table by the window before she sat down.She looked around the room, at the big fire burning in the hearth, at the window looking out over the mountains, and at the bed with its soft blankets and plump pillows. She nodded, like she approved of what she saw, and then she sat down in the chair by the window and looked at me."You are settl

    Three days passed after Doña Beatriz's visit, and my body was finally starting to heal. The shaking had stopped, the color had returned to my skin, and I could walk from my bed to the window without feeling like I was going to collapse with every step I took. The cold was still in my bones, but it was fading, and the cough that had rattled my chest was getting quieter.The boy Mateo had come to see me once. He was shy and quiet, with his mother's hand on his shoulder. He had thanked me in a small voice, and I had told him that he did not need to thank me, that I was just glad he was alive. He had hugged me before he left, quick and fierce, and I had felt something warm spread through my chest.The nobles still whispered when I walked past, but something was different now. Some of them looked away when I caught their eyes, and some of them nodded, with just a small dip of their heads. Some of them still sneered, but there were fewer of those now. The story had spread through the castle

    Serena's POV I had expected a monster, the kind of monster that lived in the stories my mother used to tell me before bed, with sharp teeth and claws and eyes that glowed in the dark, but when the doors of the throne room opened and the Lycan King Alejandro walked in, I realized that I had been wr

    We sat across from each other, and neither of us spoke. The silence was heavier than any words.A servant came to my room the evening after my conversation with Ramona, and she was not carrying the usual tray of bread and cheese.She stood in the doorway with her hands folded in front of her, and s

    I found Ramona in the library the morning after Felipe brought Lady Veronica to the castle.The library was quiet this morning, nothing like the day I had seen Alejandro standing in the shadow of the bookshelf, watching me with those burning golden eyes.
