CHAPTER 81

The news swept across Volca-Crest like a wildfire riding a howling winter gale.

By noon, there was not a single tavern, training courtyard, or border outpost across all three packs that had not heard the decree. The High Queen— the curvy female whom the noble houses and commoners were talking about non-stop was going to enter the Sacred Royal Forest at sunset under the crimson glow of the Blood Moon. She was going to face the ancient trial alone.

    A single, clear tear spilled over his lower lash line, cutting a slow path down his strong, dark cheek. Inside her chest, Vaelira’s wolf let out a low, agonizing whine. The sudden, violent surge of pain from the mate bond hit her like a physical blow, twisting her heart until it physically hurt to breathe. Seeing him like this—broken, desperate, weeping for her—tore through her internal walls faster than any blade ever could. Her throat tightened so hard she couldn't speak. "I cannot lose you in those woods," Malakor whispered, his voice cracking on the last word as a second tear trailed down his jaw. He leaned his forehead against hers, his breath hot and frantic against her lips. "I cannot sit at that checkpoint for twelve hours while you bleed in the dark. If you die in that forest, I will burn every house in Volca-Crest to the ground. I swear it to you." Vaelira reached up, her small hands moving from his chest to cup his jaw. She wiped the wetness from his skin with the pads o

    CHAPTER 83 The heavy thud of wooden targets splitting under iron echoed across the high training grounds. Vaelira pulled the reins tight, guiding her bay stallion into a sharp turn across the churning dirt. Her muscles burned beneath her leather riding leathers, sweat slicking the back of her neck as she raised her broadsword and slashed down across another wooden post. The impact shuddered up her forearm, but she didn't slow. She kicked the stallion’s flanks, wheeling the massive beast toward the final marker on the perimeter. "Keep your elbow higher on the return strike!" Leandra called out from the edge of the wooden fence, her hand resting on the pommel of her own sword. "If a rogue wolf lunges beneath your guard in the brush, a low swing will leave your throat completely open!" Vaelira adjusted her grip on the wrapped hilt, her teeth grit tightly as she drove the blade through the air in a tight arc. Her breath came in hot, shallow rasps. Twenty-four hours. In one more day, s

    "Poison??" Malia's eyes grew wide"Wolfsbane toxin," Elodia whispered, leaning over the back of the settee until her face was barely inches from her mother’s ear. "Just a few grains of concentrated powder mixed directly into her food supply. Not enough to kill her outright on the spot, but more than enough to seep into her blood once she eats in the dark."Elodia reached out, gripping her mother’s shoulder with a tight, iron grip. "It will make her weak, Mother. Disoriented. Her vision will blur, her muscles will slow down to a crawl, and her lungs will burn with every breath she takes. She will be utterly incapable of completing whatever trial the elders have set for her."Malia gasped softly, her hand flying to her mouth as her eyes widened in sudden, absolute terror. "Elodia... have you lost your mind? If the High King discovers a poison in her bag, he will hunt down whoever touched it and flay them alive in the main square! We will be dragged back to the execution block before daw

The High Queen— the curvy female whom the noble houses and commoners were talking about non-stop was going to enter the Sacred Royal Forest at sunset under the crimson glow of the Blood Moon. She was going to face the ancient trial alone.In the eastern quarters of the Blood-Fang territory, inside the sprawling stone manor of Alpha Torren, the news landed like a sharp, devastating blow.Elodia paced the length of the high-ceilinged sitting room, her heavy crimson gown snapping against her ankles with every sharp, furious turn she made across the dark timber floor. Her chest heaved beneath her fitted bodice, her knuckles turning bone-white as her fingers dug viciously into her own palms. Beneath the thick fabric of her dress, the lingering whip scars across her back

    "Yes," I said, looking her straight in the eyes without flinching. "It is true."Seraphine sucked in a sharp breath, her face turning pale as her jaw dropped slightly. "Vaelira... why would you ever agree to such a terrible thing? You do not have to do this!"She shook her head, her hand coming up to touch her neck, her silver braid shifting against her shoulder. "The consequences of the Blood Moon trial are far too dangerous. It is an ancient, violent test. You could be badly hurt, you might not even survive the physical damage it does to your body. And even if you manage to survive the early parts and choose to give up, the punishment is absolute. You will be stripped of your crown, forced to break your mate bond with the King, and thrown out of the palace forever."I looked at her pale face and tight posture, keeping my own body steady against the wooden chair back. "Don't you have at least a little confidence in me, Seraphine?"Seraphine’s hand slapped softly against the table top

    CHAPTER 79 The morning air in the courtyard garden was crisp and cold, smelling of damp stone, wet soil, and pine needles. I sat at a round iron table set deep in the gravel path, pulling my heavy wool shawl tight around my shoulders. The high stone walls surrounding the garden blocked out the freezing wind, but it did nothing to take away the heavy, suffocating weight sitting in my stomach after yesterday's court session. Beside me, Leandra stood straight and stiff, her posture rigid as a iron post. Her amber eyes darted toward the archway every few seconds, watching the empty stone halls with hyper vigilant focus. Her thumb rested continuously against the guard of her heavy broadsword, her hand twitching slightly every time the wind rustled the dry bushes. "Leandra," I said, glancing up at her. "Sit down." She hesitated, her brow pulling together into a sharp line. She looked at the empty iron chair across from me, then back down at my face. "My Queen, I am on duty right no
