The Lycan’s Tribute: Claimed By My Foster Brothers Chapter 122
Aurelia's POVThe chamber was already full when we walked in, which meant everyone had a clear view of us doing it.Every head turned. The murmuring didn't stop, it just changed pitch, the way a room sounds when its topic has walked through the door. I kept my eyes forward and my chin level and my hands relaxed at my sides, which took more effort than any of the training had. I honestly didn't think I'd be straining this much to remain composed. Kade sat at the head of the long table looking like a man who had arranged every detail of his morning and was satisfied with how it was coming together. Aldric stood at his left shoulder with his arms folded, his face doing its usual impression of a wall. Giving nothing away. We took the seats near the back. I sat between Rylan and Kaelen, Torin on Rylan's other side. Under the table, my hands found each other and stayed there.Kade let the noise settle on its own, which told me he was in no hurry."Thank you all for coming," he said, his v

Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-OneKade's POVSleep had decided it wasn't coming, which I accepted around the second hour of lying in the dark with nothing in sight. The halls of the pack house at this hour had their own thing to them, the torches burned low and far apart, the stone cold underfoot. I walked around without a destination in mind which wasn't something I did often enough to be comfortable at it.I heard them before I saw them.Near the garden corridor, voices, speaking in low tones, the cadence of a conversation that didn't want to be overheard. I slowed down without deciding to. Pressed back against the wall at the corner and turned to check who it was. Lyra. And Corvus, leaning toward her slightly, his grey head bent, his hands moving in the quiet emphatic way of someone making a point they needed the other person to receive correctly.I couldn't make out the words. The distance was too far to get anything, the stone eating the sound before it could get to where I

Aurelia's POVThe week moved slowly, the way it does when you're waiting for something and all of a sudden time feels slower than normal. Every morning I came downstairs expecting something. A letter, a rider, news through Kaelen's contacts inside the pack house. Every morning there was nothing, and the nothing came with tension and silence that couldn't be easily shrugged off with a couple of training sessions. Kaelen sent messages. Nobody answered. His contacts had gone quiet, and it was never a good thing whenever they went ghodt.The letter came on the seventh day.Kade's seal. Formal, clean, the wax pressed with precision that said someone had taken their time with it.Kaelen read it aloud in the living room, his voice flat and even, apparently we're being invited to the council meeting. Not the usual session, an expanded one, outside pack leaders invited, more names than any standard weekly gathering warranted.Tomorrow.The letter sat on the table between us when he finished.

Kade's POVThe fire had burned down to something that was more suggestion than heat, and I hadn't called for it to be restocked.The warrant sat on the desk in front of me, Aldric's careful handwriting filling the middle third of the page. I'd been looking at it for twenty minutes without picking it up.Aldric stood at the window with his hands behind his back, watching the sky do what it did at this hour, darken by degrees, the last grey light pulling back from the treeline."I want to issue it," I said."I know," Aldric said, without turning."Then say what you want to say about why I shouldn't, because I know you have that in mind."He turned from the window and looked at me. "The triplets have had time to build since Drakos," he said. "Corvus is already uneasy, we know that from the council meeting. There may be others. A public arrest, handled wrong, could fracture the pack along lines you haven't fully mapped yet.""Fracture it how?" I asked. "If enough of the elders see the ar

Aurelia's POVKaelen came into the library with a letter crumpled in his fist and the expression of a man who had read something twice hoping it would change and it hadn't.We were all there, Rylan with a book he wasn't reading, Torin sharpening a blade he'd already sharpened, me on the window seat doing nothing productive. Kaelen dropped into the chair across from the table and put the crumpled letter on it without flattening it."A contact inside the pack house sent this," he said, his voice stripped down to its bones. "Apparently kade is building a case.Gathering evidence, securing witnesses." He looked at all of us.“What's the case about and who's it against?” Torin asked. "The charge is entering Drakos without Alpha sanction. By ancient pack law, that's treason. Do I need to say who it's against?” Kaelen said, turning to face Torin. Probably trying to see his expression move from curiosity to fury. I stared at him."Tf? We saved the land," I said, my voice coming out flat wit

Kade's POVLyra was in the main hall when we rode through the gates, which meant someone had told her we were coming and she'd had time to arrange herself into the specific posture she used when she wanted answers and had decided patience wasn't going to be her approach.Arms crossed. Spine straight. Eyes moving between me and Aldric. "You look terrible," she said, when I got close enough."Thank you, Lyra," I said, handing my reins off without breaking stride. “You're always a comfort.""What happened in Drakos." Not a question. I stopped and looked at her. "The corruption is sealed," I said. "The triplets were useful. We came back." I moved toward the study. "That's what happened."She fell into step beside me, which I'd expected. "That's not what happened," she said. "That's just a summary with most of it removed.""It's what you're getting tonight," I said, my shoulder throbbing with every step in a way that made keeping my voice even a minor achievement. "I'm tired, Lyra. You o
