The Tyrant Lycan's Ruined Omega Chapter 107: More Than Obsession
Astrid didn't offer a seat. Standing by the low table, her blue silk shimmering under the mage-lights, she kept glancing at the Gleipnir around my neck."We should talk privately before the next session," she said. "About the cost of permanence, and what you've done to Xavier's position."I remained by the door, one hand resting against the wood. Ciel was quiet, though I could feel her listening."Then speak."Astrid tilted her head."You're his latest obsession, Ravenna. He loses his mind over a woman, then discards her once the excitement fades—sometimes before he's even finished ruining her." Her eyes flicked to my collar. "The royal contract complicates things; he can't simply send you away."I'd heard this speech in different rooms from different mouths. The message was always the same: know your place before someone puts you in it.Ciel growled inside my head. I ignored her."One day, he'll get tired of yo
The Tyrant Lycan's Ruined Omega Chapter 106: The Price of Kneeling
Xavier left at dusk.I stared at the closed door, annoyed by how much I wanted him to come back.For the first time in days, I had the suite to myself. No guards hovering outside, no council members questioning my right to exist, no Xavier watching me as if I were another problem he couldn't afford to lose.You apologized to him. Ciel whispered.I picked up my glass. "I know."You knelt in front of him while Astrid's evidence was still on the table. You told him you were sorry his claim was threatened because of you."I was trying to help him."Were you? Or were you afraid he'd look at you differently if you didn't?I put the glass down.Ciel had been quiet since the examination. Now she seemed determined to make up for every word she'd swallowed."The decision was mine."The woman who survived The Pit wouldn't have knelt."I'm not that woman anymore."No. But she didn't crawl out of that place just to become someone else's possession.My jaw tightened.I walked to the window. Black b
The Tyrant Lycan's Ruined Omega Chapter 105: Apologize for Being Mine
Evidence lay across the prep room table like a body awaiting autopsy. Atticus stood at the head, voice flat and clinical, while Kaelen guarded the door. Beside me, Xavier's thumb brushed the Gleipnir, as if confirming its reality.Matias's decrypted drive revealed the pattern: money and favors flowing through northern shell companies into specific council seats, timed perfectly with the Crown's sudden interest in the Gleipnir claim.Atticus tapped a final line on the tablet."The largest secondary signature belongs to a holding company under a Silverskiöld subsidiary. Lady Astrid's family."Everything went quiet.The way Xavier just sat there, saying nothing, was worse than if he'd actually yelled. It made the whole room feel freezing."How clean is the trail?" he asked."Clean enough to present," Atticus replied. "But not clean enough to survive a full legal counterattack without more proof. They were careful. Just not careful eno
The Tyrant Lycan's Ruined Omega Chapter 104: Permanently His
The examination chamber sat deep under the palace, carved from the same black stone as the rest of Wintersaint. Cold. Windowless. Pale blue mage-lights lit it, making every face look bloodless.Twelve seats. Thirteen names had been called for the closed session.Astrid's seat was empty. The cushion untouched. Everyone noticed. No one mentioned it. In Wintersaint, an absence that obvious was a statement. She didn't need to watch the examination because she already knew what the mage would say — or because she had already argued against it somewhere we weren't allowed to hear.They made us stand in the center of the circle.Two royal examiners. One physician. One mage who specialized in old bindings. King Nikolai watched from a raised seat at the far end.The mage spoke first."Remove any clothing that interferes with the binding."Xavier's hand settled on the back of my neck. He unfastened the high collar of my dress himself, slowly and deliberately, until the Gleipnir was fully expose
The Tyrant Lycan's Ruined Omega Chapter 103: The One Thing He Would Burn For.
The closed session was held in a smaller chamber off the main hall. Dark wood. No windows. Only twelve seats filled.They played the footage without warning.Grainy street cameras from The Pit. Me in a coat that wasn't mine, thin and exhausted, moving through alleys I still remembered by the smell of piss and old blood. Then a short clip from the Satin Claw stage — red lights, cheap music, my body moving for money because the alternative had been worse. The final cut was the night of the original rejection: nineteen-year-old me on my knees in Luminara Hall while Scott walked away with Freya on his arm.Ciel stirred hard at the last image. A low, broken sound moved through the bond — memory, not fear. Xavier's wolf rose instantly and pinned her again, heavy and absolute. She went quiet. The hierarchy was clear.Someone in the room exhaled through their teeth.Astrid sat perfectly still, hands folded. She reached for the glass of water in front of
The Tyrant Lycan's Ruined Omega Chapter 102 : The Queen’s Stage
Xavier didn’t let me dress myself. He stood behind me in front of the tall mirror, already in black formal wear that made him look like he had been carved out of winter and money. I was still naked except for the Gleipnir. The metal sat warm against my throat. Every bruise from the night before showed clearly in the morning light. He watched my reflection while his hands moved over my body. Not sexual. Inventory. Like he was counting every mark he had left and deciding which ones the dress should hide and which ones the Gleipnir should frame. “Look at yourself.” I did. Dark red hair still messy from his hands. Mouth slightly swollen. Fingerprints on my hips. The dark bite on my shoulder. I looked exactly like what he had made me. For a second I wanted to cover myself. Old Luminara instinct. When they stare, you make yourself smaller. I forced myself to keep my shoulders back. I've survived six years without anyone dressing me, without anyone deciding what I look like. I've wal
