The Man I Buried Chapter 44
Rowan POV Waiting had never frightened him.War had taught Rowan the discipline of stillness—the kind that held the line when everything in you demanded movement. Training had carved patience into his bones, sharpened it into something deliberate. Even leadership, in its quiet moments, required knowing when not to act.But this—This was different.This was not strategy.This was not control.This was standing still while something inside him shifted, settled, claimed a truth he could neither deny nor act on.---He did not go after her immediately.Every instinct urged him to.The bond—new, raw, and unsettling in its certainty—pulled toward her with quiet insistence. Not demanding. Not overwhelming. But constant, like a thread drawn tight between them, impossible to ignore.Still, he held his ground.Because instinct, in this case, was not authority.And she was not something to be claimed.---Hours passed.The sun climbed, stretched, then began its slow descent, painting the sky

Lyra POV Denial wasn’t loud.It didn’t come with shouting or breaking things or dramatic declarations of refusal.It was quieter than that. Stronger than that.It settled into the mind like something solid, something unmovable, something that simply was.And once it was there—Everything else had to bend around it.---This wasn’t real.That was the first thing I held onto.The first thing I repeated to myself as I sat on the edge of my bed, staring at nothing while the bond pulsed faintly in my chest like it had every right to exist.This isn’t real.It couldn’t be.Because if it was—Then everything I had built over the last three years meant nothing.Everything I had held onto.Everything I had refused to let go of.Everything I had survived.All of it—Would start to unravel.---I pressed my hand against my chest again.The same spot. The same instinct. And there it was. Soft. Steady. Unfamiliar. Wrong.“No,” I whispered under my breath.It responded. Not in words. Not in thoug
The Man I Buried Chapter 42
Rowan POV It started as a disturbance.Not physical.Not something I could see or hear.Just… wrong.I was in the training grounds, running through drills with two of the younger warriors, correcting their stance, their timing, their awareness. It was routine. Controlled. The kind of repetition that kept the mind focused and the body sharp.Then something shifted.Subtle.But enough to pull my attention away.I stilled mid-step, my senses sharpening instinctively, searching for the source. The others noticed immediately, straightening, alert.“What is it?” one of them asked.I didn’t answer.Because I didn’t know.Not yet.It wasn’t danger.Didn’t feel like an attack.There was no scent of threat, no sound of movement beyond the usual rhythm of the village.But something—Something felt off.---Then it hit.Not like a blow.Not like pain.Like… a pull.Sudden.Sharp enough to steal the air from my lungs for half a second.I staggered slightly, my hand instinctively pressing against

Lyra POV It didn’t take long to understand.That was the problem.There was no slow realization, no gradual unfolding that gave me time to adjust. The moment the bond settled—truly settled—into something undeniable, it began to pull.Not violently.Not forcefully.But with quiet certainty.Like it knew exactly where it belonged.And exactly who it belonged to.---I stayed where I had fallen for a long time.Kneeling on the ground, hands braced beneath me, breath still uneven as the new bond pulsed softly in my chest. It hadn’t faded. It hadn’t weakened.If anything—It felt clearer now.More defined.Less like confusion.More like truth.And that made it worse.Because truth meant I couldn’t deny it anymore.---The pull shifted.Subtle.But enough.My head lifted slowly, my gaze moving without me telling it to, drawn toward the edge of the clearing.Toward the path that led back into the village.My chest tightened.“No…”The word came out automatically.Because I already knew.Bef

Lyra POV It didn’t happen during something important.There was no warning.No build-up.No moment that felt like it should matter.That was the strangest part.---The morning after the Moon Goddess ceremony felt like every other morning.Quiet.Steady.Unremarkable.I woke before the sun fully rose, the pale light just beginning to stretch across the walls. For a moment, I stayed still, staring at nothing in particular, letting that familiar sense of awareness settle over me.The emptiness was still there.But it didn’t feel as sharp as it once had.Not gone.Just… quieter.I sat up slowly, pushing the blanket aside, moving through the motions I had repeated for years now. There was a rhythm to it, something automatic, something that didn’t require thought.I dressed.Stepped outside.Breathed in the cool morning air.Everything felt the same.And then—It didn’t.---It started as a flicker.So faint I almost ignored it.A shift in my chest.Not pain.Not pressure.Just… something
The Man I Buried Chapter 39
Lyra POV The Moon Goddess ceremony had always been one of the quietest nights in the pack.Not silent.But… softer.Even as a child, I remembered the way everything seemed to slow when this night came. Voices lowered. Movements became more deliberate. Fires burned a little steadier, as if the entire village understood that this was not a night for noise, but for reflection.For connection.For faith.Now, standing at the edge of the sacred clearing, I felt all of that again.But differently.The clearing was lit by low-burning flames placed in a wide circle, their light flickering gently against the surrounding trees. The sky above was clear, the moon full and bright, casting a silver glow over everything.People gathered slowly, forming small groups, speaking in quiet tones. Some stood alone, heads tilted slightly upward, as if already reaching for something beyond themselves.I watched them for a moment before stepping forward.Not because I felt drawn to it.Because it was expect
