CHAPTER 64

Two days passed without a single word or a flicker of smoke from the Vespera estate.

Inside the grand manor, the servants whispered in fearful huddles down the cold stone corridors. The master chambers remained locked and empty, the hearths turning to ash. When the estate steward questioned the night watchmen, the story was identical: armed guards bearing the heavy iron sigil of the crown had smashed through the outer gates in the dead of night, paying no heed to noble titles or anci

    CHAPTER 77"No."Malakor’s rejection tore through the quiet throne room like a cracked whip, cold and final.The arm wrapped around my waist tightened until it felt like steel bands crushing my ribs. He stepped aggressively in front of me, placing his massive frame between my body and the two elders, his broad shoulders squared as his chest heaved with violent breaths."Never," Malakor growled, his dark eyes flashing with lethal golden flecks as his upper lip pulled back to expose the tips of his sharp fangs. "How dare you even bring such a barbaric ritual into this chamber? You stand there on my stone floor and suggest I throw my Queen into the dirt to satisfy the bitter tongues of tavern gossips?"Elder Vane bowed his head so low his forehead nearly touched the cold marble, his knees trembling beneath his heavy velvet sleeves. Elder Oakhaven took an instinctive, terrified half-step back, his fingers clutching his parchment scroll so tightly the paper crinkled under his white knuckle

    "Kael!" Malakor bellowed, his voice dripping with lethal rage, his fangs fully bared and glistening in the torchlight. "Take three squadrons into the Blood-Fang territory right now! Drag every fool running their mouth about my Queen into the courtyard by their throats! They have forgotten who I am! I will tear them apart limb from limb in front of the entire realm!"Kael paled, stepping forward with his hand on his sword, bound by duty to obey, yet frozen by the raw horror of what a royal massacre would trigger across the packs."My King, please!" Elder Oakhaven pleaded, dropping flat onto his hands and knees against the cold stone. "A slaughter will only prove their words! It will ignite a civil war between the Crown and the outer territories!"Malakor took another step down the stairs, his claws flexing, his burning golden eyes fixed on the doors, ready to march out and paint the citadel red.I stood up from my seat.I didn't flinch from the suffocating aura choking the room. I step

    CHAPTER 65The throne room was suffocatingly quiet.I sat beside Malakor on the high dais, the ruffles of my skirts spread wide around me, my hands folded tightly in my lap. Below us, the long stone hall stretched toward the towering wooden doors. Elder Vane and Elder Oakhaven stood near the center of the chamber, their heavy formal robes draped over their shoulders, their heads bowed low in deep respect."Speak, elders," Malakor commanded, his deep voice rolling across the marble pillars like distant thunder. "Report on the border wagons."Elder Vane straightened his spine, exchanging a tense glance with Oakhaven before looking up at the dais. "The citadel reserve wagons arrived at the eastern border by mid-day, My King. The fresh grain calmed the crowds, and the tally system is running smoothly under the local healers now."He paused, clearing his throat nervously. "However... there is lingering talk among the outer packs. Word of the initial panic spread fast through the Blood-Fang

    CHAPTER 64The low ceilinged tavern on the edge of the Blood-Fang pack territory reeked of cheap ale, roasted meat, and wet wolf fur. Outside, the freezing night wind howled through the tall pine trees, but inside, a dozen heavy-set pack warriors sat around the wide wooden tables, their voices low as they traded local rumors.At a corner table near the fireplace, two seasoned Blood-Fang hunters slammed their heavy wooden cups onto the stained table."I am telling you, the whole eastern border almost tore itself apart yesterday," the scarred hunter muttered, leaning over his drink. "My brother works the supply lines near the Voss border. He said the villagers near the storehouses went completely mad. If the High King hadn't sent fifty heavy supply wagons straight from the royal citadel reserves, those border workers would have killed each other over a few sacks of winter grain."The younger wolf sitting across from him took a slow drink and shook his head. "So the Queen's new tally law

    CHAPTER 73The heavy bedchamber door closed behind me with a quiet click, sealing out the cold, silent hallway.The hearth had burned down to low, flickering coals, bathing the room in a dim orange light that cast long, distorted shadows across the stone floor. I let out a long breath, stepping away from the heavy oak door as my wolf finally settled back down beneath my skin. The sharp edge of my irritation had dulled now, replaced by the heavy, tactical weight of the border logistics settled in my mind.Vaelira was still sitting up against the velvet pillows, the thick covers pulled loosely around her waist. Her dark eyes tracked my every movement as I crossed the room, her brow furrowing slightly in deep suspicion as she watched my approach."What happened?" she asked quietly, her voice cutting through the soft crackle of the dying fire. "What did Elder Vane and Oakhaven want in the middle of the night?"I stripped off my heavy leather tunic, tossing it carelessly over the back of t

    I stood up, pulling my tunic straight, and strode across the chamber in long, heavy steps. I unlatched the heavy wooden bolt and yanked the door open just enough to frame my massive shoulder.Kael stood in the stone hallway, his posture stiff and his hand resting on the hilt of his sword. He took one look at my dark, lethal scowl and swallowed hard, taking a subtle half-step back."This better be important, Kael," I growled out, my voice dropping into a dangerous, low rumble. "Or I will have your head on a spike by sunrise."Kael bowed his head quickly, his expression grim. "Forgive the intrusion, My King. But Elder Vane and Elder Oakhaven are waiting down in the study. They say a severe issue has broken out at the eastern border, and it cannot wait until morning."My eyes narrowed as the lingering warmth of the bedchamber died out completely. I glanced back over my shoulder toward Vaelira, who gave me a silent, encouraging nod from the bed."Lead the way," I commanded, stepping out i
