The day before the full moon.....

Osphious Furtooth was found dead inside his cell at the High Council’s prison.

No obvious wounds. No signs of struggle.

The investigation moved fast and pointed toward suicide, a small empty vial found inside his jumpsuit, and a short, handwritten note expressing guilt over the smuggling charges.

The evidence was neat, almost too clean.

The High Elders who had been locked up for their part in the illegal detention were quickly acquitte

  • The Young Lycan   Trap Exposed.

    The following days were filled with chaos.The Winterchase began striking Blacklore’s hidden companies, black markets, and illegal shipping routes. At the same time, they tipped off the High Council, with Elder Faustino handling the investigation. They released information little by little, careful not to waste every piece of leverage they had against the Blacklores all at once.Borren was doing the same on his side.He had already started tearing apart the Blacklore intelligence network and quietly replacing their people with his own. False information began reaching Ferdinand Blacklore, especially while the pack was already drowning in crisis. In a situation like this, one wrong message could ruin everything.Inside the Redborne Dungeon, Matthias handled Paloma himself.He used a silver whip, and every strike was meant to force the truth out of her. Paloma kept insisting she was innocent.“I didn’t do it. I swear. Your daughter did it to herself!”

  • The Young Lycan   A Successful Trap.

    Matthias did not waste another second.“Take her,” he said, his voice tight with rage. “Chain her up with silver and lock her in the Redborne Dungeon. I want guards on her at all times.”His men moved immediately.Paloma, still pale and shaken, was dragged away as soon as Orina released her. Silver chains were wrapped around her wrists and ankles, the cold metal biting into her skin as the guards hauled her upright.Matthias stood there with Liliana in his arms, and the air around him felt heavy enough to choke on.His lycan aura rolled off him in waves, strong and wild. Even the guards stiffened. Orina had to steady herself when she stepped closer.“Lycan,” she said carefully, “you need to calm down. Liliana is still in your arms.”Matthias looked down at his daughter. For a moment, his expression cracked, but the fury never left him.He tried to breathe through it.He failed.Before he could say more, Borren arrived at the stairwell after he

  • The Young Lycan   Playing the Victim.

    Liliana let a dark smile settle on her face as she raised her hand and watched her fingers change. The bones shifted slowly, the nails lengthening and sharpening until her hand became a lycan claw.Paloma’s eyes widened.“What are you doing?” she asked, her voice already tight with fear.Liliana gave no answer. She only looked down at her own hand, as if she were considering something simple, something almost ordinary. Then she drew those claws across her skin.Blood rose at once, warm and bright, sliding down her arm and staining her fingers. Liliana kept going, dragging the claws deeper, making each wound ugly enough to look real. Her dress tore under her hands as she clawed at herself with calm, steady movements, as though pain meant nothing to her.Paloma could only stare.Liliana did not flinch. She did not even slow down.She kept hurting herself until her body looked brutally attacked, until blood had soaked through her clothes and run down to

  • The Young Lycan   Releasing Some of the Grudges.

    Using the elevator would have taken too long, and Liliana knew she did not have the patience for that.Her eyes swept the hallway once before she turned toward the stairs instead. The moment she was out of sight, her body changed. Her bones hardened, her skin shifted, and in the next breath she was already in her lycan form, racing upward. She climbed from the 23rd floor to the 42nd in a blur.When she reached the executive floor, her gaze locked onto Paloma.Paloma was walking toward her father’s office with that same smug, graceful sway, as if the whole building belonged to her. The sight of her made something cold twist inside Liliana’s chest.Then Liliana moved.She shot forward in a blur, reached Paloma before she could take another step, and dragged her into the stairwell. The door slammed shut behind them, sealing them away in the narrow space.Paloma barely had time to react before Liliana slammed her hard against the wall.The impact kn

  • The Young Lycan   Chasing the Scent.

    The day before the full moon.....Osphious Furtooth was found dead inside his cell at the High Council’s prison. No obvious wounds. No signs of struggle. The investigation moved fast and pointed toward suicide, a small empty vial found inside his jumpsuit, and a short, handwritten note expressing guilt over the smuggling charges. The evidence was neat, almost too clean. The High Elders who had been locked up for their part in the illegal detention were quickly acquitted of any involvement in his death. All blame stayed pinned firmly on Osphious.The Redborne, Silvershade, and Winterchase families knew foul play was involved. The timing was too convenient. The evidence was perfectly arranged. It was done so thoroughly that even High Elder Faustino could do nothing. Every trail led back to Osphious alone. His death had cut off any remaining leads that might have connected him to others.•••••••••At the Redborne mansion, Liliana received t

  • The Young Lycan   New Compounds.

    Days after the trial, life slowly returned to a new kind of normal.Matthias was back in the Redborne Tower, working long hours to make up for the time he had lost. He moved through the building with steady confidence, handling meetings and signing new projects without missing a beat. Osphious’s shares had been quietly bought out, giving Matthias a solid fifty percent ownership. He now held clear control of the company. Paloma still roamed the halls with her twenty-three percent, but Matthias chose not to move against her yet. Keeping her close meant he could watch her every step.Shaina, on the other hand, went with Liliana to Redridge that same afternoon. The antidote for her sealed ability was finally ready. The drive was quiet, but hopeful.Inside the main building, Beta Sendro waited for them with focused anticipation. The old alchemist’s hands were steady as he held the small vial of shimmering liquid. When Liliana and Shaina entered the room, S

  • The Young Lycan   The Guilt Matthias Felt

    On the third day apart from Shaina, Matthias felt the emptiness like a constant ache in his chest. His wolf paced restlessly inside him, craving her touch, her warmth, the way she always submitted so perfectly to him. Work at Redborne Tower dragged on, and every quiet moment made the mate bond pu

  • The Young Lycan   The Seed Has Been Planted

    Since Liliana was born, Shaina and Matthias had become very busy with pack duties and business. But they always made sure to set aside time for their family. They ate dinner together most nights. They read stories to Liliana before bed. And on quiet mornings, the three of them would walk in the

    The weeks after their bonding turned into months of pure heat. Matthias and Shaina could not keep their hands off each other. Whenever Matthias finished his work early and came home to the mansion, Shaina would never leave their shared bedroom. She waited for him there, already wet and ready.The

    For a week, the Redborne mansion buzzed with celebration. Shaina settled into her new life as Luna of the Redborne pack. Servants bowed when she passed. Her days filled with learning the layout of the grand house and planning small projects with the funds Matthias had given her.Matthias stayed bu
