Throne Of The Broken Bonds Chapter 33: Silver Pulse
Elara’s PovThe ground was cold against my cheek. My lungs felt like they were full of dry sand, and every time I tried to pull in a breath, my ribs felt like they were rubbing together. I didn't move. I just lay there, staring at a single piece of gravel an inch from my eye. The silver heat was still humming in my ears, but it wasn't a roar anymore. It was a dull throb.Aiden was groaning nearby. I heard him roll over, the dirt crunching under his weight."Elara?" he croaked.I didn't answer. I was busy checking my own body. My fingers twitched. My legs felt heavy, but they weren't broken. I pushed myself up, my palms stinging from the scorched earth. I sat on my heels and looked at him. He looked like he’d been hit by a truck."That... that wasn't supposed to happen," Aiden said. He was sitting up now, holding his chest. "The bond wasn't supposed to have that much kick.""Everything your father told us was a lie, Aiden," I said. My voice was flat. I didn't feel sad. I didn't even fe
Throne Of The Broken Bonds Chapter 32: The True Name
Elara’s PovI didn't have to turn around to know who it was. The air changed. It got heavy and smelled like copper and expensive soap. I kept my back to the entrance, my hands tightening on the grip of the staff."Go away, Aiden," I said. My voice was steady, but my heart was starting to thump against my ribs. "I'm not going anywhere," he said.He sounded different. His voice wasn't thick with whiskey anymore. It was sharp and raw. I heard his boots crunching on the dirt, getting closer. I spun around, raising the staff to chest level.I stopped. He looked like he’d been in a car wreck. His jaw was swollen and turning a nasty purple color. His lip was split, and there was a dried smear of blood on his chin. His shirt was torn at the collar, showing the frantic move of his chest as he breathed."What do you want?" I asked.Aiden stopped about six feet away. He didn't look like he was going to apologize. He looked like he was vibrating with a fever. His eyes were dark, and they were fi
Throne Of The Broken Bonds Chapter 31: Bloodline Lies
Aiden’s PovI didn't knock. I just pushed the heavy oak doors open and walked into my father’s study. Rowan was sitting behind his desk, looking over a map of the northern territories. He didn't look up when I came in."You're late," he said. His voice was like a saw hitting a stone. "And you look like hell, Aiden. Wash your face before the council sees you.""The council isn't here," I said. I pulled out the chair opposite him and sat down. I didn't ask for permission. "And I don't care how I look. We need to talk about the vials I found in your desk."Rowan finally looked up. His eyes were sharp, scanning me for weakness. He leaned back and folded his hands. "You've been snooping. That’s a dangerous habit for a boy who can barely hold his liquor.""I’m not a boy," I said. I leaned forward, my hands gripping the edge of the desk. "You've been putting that stuff in the Omegas' tea for years. You’ve been putting it in mine, too. I checked the logs from the healer’s wing. It’s a suppre
Throne Of The Broken Bonds Chapter 30: Faint Tremor
Elara’s POVI walked down to the secluded training area behind the old barracks. I didn’t want to see anyone. I had already had enough of Aiden’s drama.I picked up a heavy training staff and swung it hard against a wooden post. The sound was like a bone breaking."Damn it," I muttered.I swung again. And again. I wanted to hit something until I stopped thinking. "You're going to break that pole," a voice said.I spun around, my staff raised. It was Jax. He was standing a few feet away, holding a water skin. He looked nervous. Ever since I’d stood up to Rowan, the warriors looked at me like I might explode."Maybe the pole needs to be broken," I said. I lowered the staff, but I didn't relax."You look like you're trying to kill the air, Elara," Jax said. He took a cautious step forward. "Marcus told us to give you space, but the guys are worried. You haven't eaten since yesterday.""I'm not hungry, Jax. I just want to move.""Is it true?" he asked, his voice dropping. "What they're s
Throne Of The Broken Bonds Chapter 29: Drunken Whispers
Aiden’s Pov Elara really let me go. I was all alone in the hallway. She was already so cold towards me, that I disgusted her. I reached her door. Room 14. I leaned my forehead against the wood. It was cool. It felt better than the fire in my head. I slid down until I was sitting on the carpet, my back against the doorframe. My knuckles were still dripping blood onto my jeans. "Elara," I whispered. My voice sounded thick. "I know you're in there." Silence. I could hear her breathing on the other side. Or maybe I was just imagining it. "I’m sorry," I said. I tapped my head against the door. Thump. Thump. "I’m so sorry. For the chores. For the names. For the way my father looked at you. I didn't... I didn't know how to stop him." I waited. Nothing. "He’s sick, Elara," I muttered. I leaned closer to the crack in the door. "My father. He isn't just mean. He’s doing things. I found the vials. In his desk. He’s been putting things in the tea. The medicine they give the Omegas... it’s
Throne Of The Broken Bonds Chapter 28: Open Defiance
Elara’s Pov I didn't flinch when he lunged. I just stood there. My feet were planted on top of that dirty rag, and I didn't move a single inch. Two of his elite guards stepped forward to grab me, but they stopped. They didn’t stop because Rowan told them to. They stopped because the air in the courtyard suddenly felt like it was made of lead. It was heavy. It was thick. It was the kind of pressure that makes your ears pop before a storm. "I said no, Rowan," I said. My voice was quiet, but it cut through the sound of his heavy breathing. Rowan’s hand was inches from my throat. His claws were starting to peek out, his knuckles white. He was shaking with a rage I hadn't seen before. "You are a servant. You will do as you are told, or I will end you right here." "Then do it," I said. I looked him right in the eye. "End me in front of everyone. Show the pack that the only way you can lead is by killing a girl who won't pick up a piece of cloth." Rowan looked around. He saw the crowd
