Alistair set his wine glass down with the same calm he used when signing trade agreements.

"The offer is simple," he said. "Publicly renounce the mate bond and the Gleipnir claim before the Council and return to the Holloway name under my authority. In exchange, Roman goes free, the clinic remains untouched, and I'll ensure the Crown withdraws its interest in you."

Scott's face went white. Freya looked almost satisfied.

Elias stared at his plate. "No," he said.

Alistair raised an eyebrow. "I

  • The Tyrant Lycan's Ruined Omega   Chapter 111: The Residue

    Xavier had not spoken in several minutes. He stood with his back to me, one hand braced on the edge of the desk, head slightly bowed. The bond between us was a tight, vibrating wire—anger, fear, and something darker that had no clean name.When he finally turned, his eyes were almost black."On your knees."The order was quiet. Absolute.I went down.The carpet was soft under my shins. I kept my spine straight because the alternative felt like surrendering more than I was willing to give. Xavier walked toward me slowly, stopping close enough that I had to tip my head back to meet his gaze. His fingers found the Gleipnir and closed around it, not tight enough to choke, just enough to remind me it was there."Start from the beginning," he said. "Every detail. Who knocked. What the attendant looked like. Exactly what he said. Do not leave anything out."I told him.The young man in winter-blue. The silver tray. The way he had set it down without waiting for permission. The vague answer w

  • The Tyrant Lycan's Ruined Omega   Chapter 110: When Tea Gone Cold

    Shortly after ten, a young attendant arrived with a silver tray and tea while I was halfway through the documents Matias had recovered from Kane's office. "Tea, my lady." "I didn't order any." "The kitchens sent it up." He set the tray beside my papers and stepped toward the door before I could ask for an explanation. "Who told you to bring it?" He paused. "I was instructed to deliver it here." "By whom?" "I don't know, my lady." He left before I could press him further. The door closed. Turning back to the documents, the faint scent of bergamot hit me, just as Ciel stirred uneasily within. Don't touch it. My hand stopped above the cup. Why? I leaned back in the silence, save for the ticking mantel clock. The tea and the tray looked completely normal, and that was exactly why I was worried. As I reached for the bell, Kaelen entered with a leather case, his gaze shifting from my face to the untouched cup. "You haven't drunk it?" "No. Ciel warned me." His expression

    Morning came without warmth.Xavier was already awake, dressing with his usual precision on the edge of the bed.I sat up. The Gleipnir shifted against my throat, a familiar weight that suddenly felt heavier."You're leaving early," I said."Atticus is waiting. We need options on Kane before the council session this afternoon." His voice was calm. Controlled. The same voice he used in boardrooms and court. "Stay in the wing. Kaelen will be nearby."The order landed poorly.I pushed the blankets aside and stood. "We're doing this again."He glanced over his shoulder. "Doing what?""Locking the doors. Deciding for me. Treating me like something that has to be managed instead of someone standing in the same room."Xavier turned fully to face me. "This is not about management. This is about the fact that a senior advisor to the King has been funding attempts to force your collar off. You are a target.""I've been a target sin

    The medical wing smelled of antiseptic, steel, and blood. Shirtless and bandaged, Matias leaned against the headboard, his pale face bruised but his eyes sharp with anger.An ignored drink sat nearby.Kaelen stood by the door while Atticus reviewed Matias's papers; Xavier closed the door behind us.Matias gave me a faint, crooked smirk. "Still wearing the jewelry, I see," he said. "I was starting to think the palace might have swallowed you.""You're one to talk," I answered. "You look like you lost a fight with a carriage.""I won," he corrected. "Barely. And I kept the important part."He nodded toward the papers in Atticus's hands.Xavier stepped forward. "Show me."Atticus spread the documents across the metal table: financial trails, encrypted emails, and a list of names. The Silverskiölds were involved, but they were no longer at the top.One name sat higher than the rest.Lord Edran Kane.King Nikol

    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.
