“What the fuck…” Alpha Ronan barely choked out before his body gave in. His pupils rolled back, muscles stiffened, and then... darkness swallowed him whole. He collapsed, crashing hard against the marble floor with a dull thud that echoed across the dorm.

His chest barely moved. His lips parted slightly, the veins in his neck still throbbing faintly from whatever the hell that bitch had just made him drink.

Liora stood over him, smirking. A devilish, victorious curve of her mouth spread slowly

  • The Reluctant Alpha and His Sassy Queen   174. THE END

    The so-called mistress of the Lycan King. A manipulative seductress who crawled into power on her knees and bathed in blood.People had spat when her name was mentioned. Mothers had pulled their children closer. Warriors had sworn they would be the ones to take her head.And when the truth detonated like a bomb guilt spread like wildfire because now it wasn’t some unknown girl they had judged.It was the Lycan’s supposed dead child. The little girl who used to run barefoot through the palace gardens.The princess who once hid behind her father’s legs during storms.The Ruby of the Lycan and the shame was thick enough to choke on.Scarlet didn’t say much about it but she felt it.Every stare that now held apology instead of disgust. Every bow that dipped a little deeper.Whisper now carried awe instead of accusation.It didn’t erase the hurt. It didn’t erase the nights she’d lain awake, wondering if even her own people wanted her dead.But it was something.Weeks passed.She recovered

    “You arrogant ASSHOLE!” The spirit’s voice ripped through the clearing, shrill and fractured, echoing off stone and bone like something dragged straight out of hell.The Lycan stood there, blood streaking his bare chest, silver eyes glowing faintly in the dark. He forced himself to wipe away the last lingering thought that the presence before him was Scarlet.“You talk too much for something that hides behind borrowed skin,” he said coldly.The spirit shrieked, the sound rising into a pitch that made the ground tremble.Then a voice low at first was chanting. The sound rolled through the air like a tide of something older than the moon itself.The Lycan’s ears twitched. He knew that voice. It was Ronan reading from the book.The chanting grew louder, each syllable slicing through the darkness like a blade. Symbols on the ground began to glow faintly red.The spirit froze. Its body started trembling violently. “No…” it whispered.The Scarlet-face twisted. Flesh rippled unnaturally, bon

    The chamber of bones fell silent. The creature wearing Scarlet’s face tilted its head, that familiar mouth stretching into something evil. Then the Lycan knew something looked familiar. His jaw tightened. “Zeta,” he said bluntly, voice low and cutting. “Or Thane?”The figure stilled and then the stolen lips twitched.Then laughter spilled out.“Rubbish,” the voice said mockingly. “We both know that foolish Thane would never try to crawl back. He’s burning in hell for both of us.”The Lycan’s stomach dropped.The figure stepped down from the throne slowly, boots crunching over scattered bones.“You remember when I told you I’d come back?” the voice asked softly, almost conversational. “Did I stutter, Father?”The Lycan’s expression darkened, but shock flickered behind his eyes.“How did the world react,” Zeta continued mockingly, circling him, “when they found out their beloved dead Lycan is suddenly alive? And then did it again? Rise from the ashes. Such a dramatic bastard you are.”

    “Take your hands off me.”Alpha Ronan’s voice cracked through the underground chamber like a whip. His claws were still half-extended, chest heaving from adrenaline and rage.The Lycan didn’t release him.Instead, his grip tightened on the back of Ronan’s collar, fingers digging into muscle like he was restraining a rabid beast.“You don’t really want me to do what I want to do,” the Lycan said lowly, silver eyes gleaming in the dim, corpse-lit chamber. His voice dropped into something dangerous, almost feral. “The only reason I’m working with you is because you’re helping me find Scarlet. Don’t mistake cooperation for friendship.”Ronan’s lips curled.“I’m only using your powers to find Scarlet,” he shot back, voice dripping with venom. “I don’t give a bloody fuck about what you do after.”The air between them crackled. They were to predators. Two kings in different hierarchy. Alpha Ronan unwilling to kneel to the Lycan. Ronan shoved the Lycan’s hand off him with force. “Let’s get o

    He shoved the book inside his jacket and stormed out of the spiritualist’s home.The scent of the Lycan hit him. Ronan tracked it through the trees, moving fast, ignoring the ache in his chest.The forest opened into a wide field drenched in moonlight and there he was.The Lycan stood at the center, tall and terrifying, his presence commanding even in stillness. His eyes scanned the horizon sharply. Around him were members of his pack, tense and alert.At the far edge of the field, the Lycan’s gaze was locked on something unseen.“The corner of the field,” the Lycan ordered coldly to his Gamma. “There’s something wrong. Find a spiritualist. Now.”The Gamma nodded and sprinted off.Ronan stepped forward, boots crushing the grass.The Lycan noticed him then and his expression darkened instantly. “I don’t have time for your bullshit tonight, Alpha,” the Lycan said, voice edged with warning. “If you’re here to start another fight, I’ll end it permanently.”Ronan ignored the insult. He pul

    The possessed body tilted its head at an unnatural angle, bones cracking like dry twigs snapping under boots. “Smart wolf,” it said, voice layered like wind scraping through a graveyard. “He understands survival.”It was mocking Grey. Mocking the way he’d bolted like a frightened bitch the second things turned real.Alpha Ronan didn’t move an inch. The night air pressed against his lungs, reeking of blood and old magic. The spiritualist’s corpse…no, not corpse, vessel stood before him, eyes drowned in black, skin stretched too tight over bones like something wearing flesh that didn’t belong to it.Running would change nothing. Scarlet was still out there in pains.If he had to die clawing at whatever the fuck this was, then so be it.The possessed woman smirked, lips curling in a way no human mouth should. “Alpha Ronan,” it purred, dragging his name across its tongue. “This is not your business. I suggest you mind your fucking business and don’t poke your nose into what’s mine.Alpha
