Every conversation held weight. Every decision carried consequence.

Alpha Swan sat at the head of the room, a glass of scotch in his hand, his expression thoughtful.

Luna Swan sat beside him, composed as always, while Vanessa and Lucas occupied the seats across from them.

    Author's POVThe Swanlake Alpha’s mansion had always been a place of power.Every conversation held weight. Every decision carried consequence.And this late morning, the atmosphere in the main sitting room felt heavier than usual.Alpha Swan sat at the head of the room, a glass of scotch in his hand, his expression thoughtful.Luna Swan sat beside him, composed as always, while Vanessa and Lucas occupied the seats across from them.A large screen glowed softly on the wall.Displayed on it were photos that had shaken the entire world.The Lycan king, Cassian Knight and Isabelle Quinn were officially engaged."The Knights and the Quinns…" Alpha Swan muttered, swirling the amber liquid in his glass. "I didn't expect them to move this quickly."Lucas leaned back slightly, his brows drawn together. "It changes everything. It will shake the entire structure of our world…pack territories, alliances, and influence. Whoever stands close enough will reap the benefits."Alpha Swan nodded; Lucas

  • The Mad Lycan King's Wrong Luna   41. Is Nathan important to you?

    "Um… about the girl," I began, my voice quieter than I intended. "Is she… is she still in your life?" Silence. Cassian didn't answer immediately. Instead, he leaned back slightly in his chair, his gaze locking onto mine with unsettling focus. It felt as if he was studying me rather than considering the question. Then his lips curved. It wasn't a smile. It was something sharper. "Such double standards, Isabelle." My breath hitched.He tilted his head slightly, eyes darkening. "You didn't answer my question about Nathan," he continued, his voice smooth, almost lazy. "And yet you expect me to answer yours?" Heat crept up my neck. This petty man. Why bring that up now? "That's not—" "What?" he cut in softly. He leaned forward now, resting his forearms on the table, closing the distance without touching me. "Are you jealous?" My grip tightened around the fork. "I'm not—" "You are," he said calmly. He didn't sound like he was guessing or teasing. He said it as if it were a f

  • The Mad Lycan King's Wrong Luna   40. Who is she?

    The air shifted.Cassian's gaze dropped to my lips again, darker this time, like something inside him had finally snapped loose.Before I could react, his mouth found mine again.There was no gentleness, no hesitation. It was raw. Urgent. As if he had been holding back for far too long.My breath caught as his hands slid under my silk pyjama shirt, his hands tracing my bare skin. He didn't rush, but there was nothing restrained about it either. Every movement carried weight. Possession. Something dangerously close to hunger.His warmth, his closeness, the way he touched me like I was something he had already claimed…It was all overwhelming. Too much.Too fast. Reality crashed in like ice water. Nathan's bloodied chest flashed behind my eyelids. Ryan's deliberate smirk at the club. The endless web of lies I was weaving to survive. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't let this happen. I tore my face away, breaking the kiss with a shaky gasp. My lips felt swollen, tingling from the bru

    Can you sleep with me? S–sleep with him? In the presence of the doctor and Randy?I lowered my gaze, my cheeks burning hot.Why was he making it sound ambiguous when we had company? "Leave us," Cassian said. "My king, I still need to keep you under observation; we can't—" "I know my body better. Leave."The doctor looked hesitant, but seeing Cassian's death glare, he nodded and turned away, with Randy already taking the lead. It was left with the both of us in the vast room. "Come here," he said, making space for me. This time, I didn't resist. "Um…okay," I murmured and climbed into the bed. Cassian pulled me closer to him, his hand wrapping possessively around my waist. My heart thumped at our proximity, and the atmosphere felt tense. For a moment, we just lay there as the silence stretched… our bodies pressed against each other with only our clothes separating us. "Did I scare you?" "Are you okay now?"Cassian and I spoke at the same time, as we both turned to face each

    Yvette's POVThe bathroom mirror was still fogged when I stepped out, water droplets trailing down my skin.For a moment, everything felt quiet. Too quiet.I reached for my phone on the bedside table. But it wasn't there.I didn't even remember where I dropped it. I clearly remembered taking it with me before I left the table yesterday. I frowned and checked under the pillows. Then the other side. Then the floor."Where is it…" I muttered, irritation creeping in. Could it be with Ryan? Cassian? My memories felt like a blur. My chest tightened slightly.No. Don't overthink. I stepped out of the room and almost ran straight into Randy.He stopped immediately, like he had been standing there longer than necessary."Randy… erm, have you seen my phone?" I asked, trying to sound casual.He hesitated.Just for a second.But I caught it."Yes, Miss. It's with the Alpha."My heart dropped.Cassian?Why did he have my phone?A wave of panic surged through me before I forced myself to breath

    "Who is Nathan?" My heart stopped. For a second, I forgot how to breathe. How did Cassian find out about Nathan? "I… don't know what you're talking about," I said, acting dumb. His eyes darkened. "Think carefully before you lie to me." My throat tightened. Damn it. Did I talk about Nathan when I was out of it? "I didn't—" "You did." He leaned forward slightly, his presence pressing into me without even touching me. "You called his name," he continued, his voice quieter now. "You held onto me like I was him." My chest felt tight. Shit. I forced a small frown. "You're imagining things."That was my first mistake—a very big one. "I don't know any Nathan." That was the second mistake, because the next second, Cassian moved. His movement was fast. One hand wrapped around my ankle, dragging me down the bed slightly until I was closer to him. A soft gasp escaped me.He placed his hands beside my head, his large body hovering above mine. "Do I look like I imagine things?"

    The silence in the room was deafening. I could feel my pulse thundering in my throat. I looked at Ryan, silently glaring at him to leave us alone. Why was he even stalling? Ryan finally relented, though his expression was one of pure venom. He grabbed Roxanne's arm. "Come on, Roxy. His Majesty w

    For a second, I felt a surge of triumph. This was my window. If they went to the garden, I'd have twenty minutes to get into his room and find that diary. But then, I saw my phone sitting on the side table. "What is my phone doing here?" Rita, who was standing on the side, answered. "One of the

    Time stood still when our lips locked. I could feel him everywhere: his body pressing against mine… his scent and his presence muddling my senses. He held the back of my head in one hand, grabbing fistfuls of my elegant updo, which I was sure was a mess now, and pulled me into him with his other h

    "Are you ready?" Estelle asked softly beside me.I inhaled slowly, steadying my breath, and lifted my chin. "Yes," I whispered.The doors swung open, and every voice below seemed to fade as I took my first step down the staircase. One step… Then another. Their eyes turned, their conversations pa
