Damion's POV

You don't care about her! She is a traitor! Whatever she does is none of your business!

I had to keep reminding myself that this woman had no layer of importance in my life. She was nothing more than an object to be used by me.

Just like the other women in my life, she was nothing special. The others were just s*x toys meant to quench my list whenever I wanted to, she was just a figure to show to everyone as my Luna.

The only women that I showed compassion towards were my mother and sister. I could kill for them anyday, anytime. They easiest way to mess with me was to try any attempt at harm to those two.

Other than that, affection bore no residence in my personality. All I knew was duty to my pack and making sure everyone else feared me.

I drowned my glass of root beer. I had taken a break to rewind from everything. Seated across from me was my Beta; Logan McGill.

He was my best friend for as long as I knew how to walk. His father and mine were close so we basically grew up together.

He was the only other person that I could have a conversation with about what was going on in my personal life.

He was just as tall as me with dull brown eyes that only lit up when he was about to smile. He had a great build.

We were two contrasting personalities. While he was the social and jovial one who made everyone smile wherever he went, I was the reserved friend who would rather kill a thousand men that show emotion.

Emotions make you weak and vulnerable. Those were two traits that I didn't wish to possess.

“Maybe you should ease up on her a little.”

I sighed. “What are you going on about?”

“I mean, I get you're ruthless but the way you spoke with her in public was just heartbreaking. I'm not surprised that she wants to get as far away from you as possible.”

“Not you too taking her side. Have you forgotten that she is my property and that I can do with her however I please?”

He had witnessed the incident with Mia earlier and wouldn't stop talking about it ever since.

“That I do not disagree with. But why do you have a problem with her leaving if she is just a house object to you? It's not like she is of any use for you around the house.”

“Xander will do everything in his power to sleep with her. I can't have that.”

“Why? You don't seem to have a problem with sleeping with other Alpha's Luna.”

“Don't blame me for that. They are the ones who offer their bodies to me. I don't go about begging for s*x like Xander.”

“Maybe if you had treated her a little better she wouldn't have seen the need to see comfort in another man’s arms.”

“Save your preachings, Logan. I asked you what to do about this situation. I didn't call you here to try and convince me into caring about women.”

Logan sighed. I knew he would keep on pressing about the matter if I hadn't put a stop to it.

“There is nothing to do. Just let the woman do what she wants. But if you're jealous about seeing her with another man, then treat her well and she'll stay faithful to you.”

I rolled my eyes. What was wrong with everyone calling me jealous? I didn't love her. Why would I get jealous?

“You're not helping,” I scolded.

“You said it yourself. No woman is special. You can change her with a snap of your finger. If at any point, you get tired you'll change her anyway. Besides, you don't usually have a problem when the women you sleep with do the same with others.”

“I'm not changing her for another two years. We signed an agreement, remember?”

“She is just going to work. If you don't want Xander trying to seduce her, then confront him and warn him to stay away from her.” He took a sip of his root beer. “If you don't care, then just let her be and go on with your affairs.”

Now he was talking. That was something great to do. I would do just that. I was going to ignore her until after it was time to carry out the plan I had in mind for her and her father.

“That is what I will do.”

“All you have to be bothered about is if she is actually going to impact his company and make him grow more than you.”

No one can be greater than me. “There is no way she knows her way around fashion. Xander just wants her to himself. He knows there is no miracle that can pull his company back up.”

“If you say so.”

“I guess we'll just wait and see.”

Speaking of Mia, I hadn't seen her all day. I had sent a guard earlier to go and fetch her for me but he still hadn't returned.

“Where the hell is this guard?”

Logan shrugged. He looked up and something behind me caught his attention. His next words were a whisper. “Speak off the devil.”

“Do you have a death wish, guess?!” I yelled. “I sent you to grab me Mia. Why haven't you come back with her.’

“Sir I have searched everywhere for her but I couldn't find her. I had to go to the gate and ask if they had seen her. The last time they saw her, she was in a car, getting out of the pack.”

What? “Was she alone?”

“No. Alpha Xander was with her.”

I slammed my hand on the table. “And none of you assholes thought that didn't look right.”

“They tried to stop the car. But Luna Mia told them to stand down that she had permission from you to move about freely.”

“And none of you cared to reach out to me and confirm? How much more useless could you be?”

I was restless. I began pacing my room. “I have had enough of Xander. Logan, coordinate the troops we are going to take over his pack!”

“You know that is not reasonable, Damion. I'm sure there is a reason she went with him and he is going to drop her off when they are done.”

“Am I stuttering?! Do as I asked!”

“Calm down, Damion. She is going to show up. If she doesn't show up before evening, I'm sending a troop over to his pack.”

“Xander had captured my Luna. He's going to regret messing with me.”

    Lyra’s POVThe hall slowly emptied, but the echo of the moment lingered in the air like a warm afterglow. The warriors slipped out with bowed heads, whispering blessings as they passed. The glow of the Crescent Flame emblem still shimmered across the far wall, soft silver and gold light carrying a promise I could feel deep in my bones.My body trembled with exhaustion, but the peace inside me… it was something new. Something fragile and soft, like a breath after drowning.My twins rested against my chest, their skin warm, their tiny heartbeats steady. Their breathing was so gentle, so rhythmic, it soothed every ache I carried. I ran my thumb along the curve of my daughter’s cheek, memorizing the softness of her, then shifted slightly as my son curled closer in Damion’s arms.I looked up at him.Damion was watching me the way someone looks at sunrise after believing they might never see light again. His presence grounded me. His love steadied me. Everything we had fought for had led to

    The battlefield beyond the walls of Bloodhound had fallen silent, the fires smoldering in the distance, the acrid scent of ash and blood hanging heavy in the air. For the first time in what felt like an eternity, the screams of war were gone. The Moonlight shone down on the packs, both Bloodhound and Moonshine, their warriors exhausted but alive.Inside the castle, the chaos of battle had not followed, but a different storm raged.Lyra lay on a bed in the center of the chamber, her hands pressed to her belly, her face pale but resolute. She had barely spoken since the last attack, and now, the tension in her body had reached its peak. I stayed at her side, kneeling on the floor, holding her hand and watching the faint rise and fall of her chest.Her eyes fluttered open, meeting mine, and in them, I saw all the battles we had fought, all the losses we had endured, and the fragile hope that had survived. “It’s over,” she whispered, though her voice carried no relief. “The packs… the bl

    Damion's povThe Blood Moon bathed the land in crimson light, spilling its glow through the tall windows of our chamber. Outside, the armies clashed with chaos and fury, fire and shadow mingling in a dance of death. I stayed close to Lyra, feeling her trembling under my arms, her pulse uneven, her breathing shallow. Every moment, my fear twisted tighter around my chest. I could hear the cries of warriors, the clash of steel, the roar of beasts beyond the walls, but in this room, all I could focus on was the fragile life in her womb and the life at her side.Lyra’s eyes were closed, her forehead damp with sweat. Her body ached from the lingering poison, and the curse that had once haunted her had now shifted toward the child she carried. I felt the weight of responsibility crush me. Not just as a king, not just as a fighter, but as the man who would protect her at all costs. I pressed a kiss to the top of her head, inhaling her scent, grounding myself against the fear that threatene

  • Twin Hearts,Broken Bonds   CHAPTER 134

    Damion’s POVThe attack came before dawn, when the world was still quiet enough for fear to be heard. A scout burst into the war hall with ash smeared across his face, breath sharp and frantic.He spoke of fire sweeping through the outer villages, shadows moving with unnatural speed, rogues tearing through defenses as if they had been trained to fight as one body. Behind them marched witches cloaked in midnight, and further still, scattered remnants of the monsters Lucius once called his loyal hounds. Selene Varran was no longer testing our borders. She had launched a full invasion.I felt the weight of the kingdom press onto my shoulders. My generals rose from their seats instantly, barking orders, drawing strategies, ready to charge into the chaos. The scent of burning earth seeped in even from the stone walls. Every instinct in my body screamed at me to take the field, to lead the army the way I always had. But beneath that instinct lived something stronger. A smaller heartbeat.

  • Twin Hearts,Broken Bonds   CHAPTER 133

    Damion’s POVWhen I found Lyra in Lucius’s abandoned chamber, she was sitting on the cold floor with the scroll open in her trembling hands. The moonlight through the cracked window fell across her face, revealing the tears she had been fighting to hide. She didn’t look up at first. She just stared at the prophecy written by my father, as if willing the words to change. When she finally raised her eyes to mine, the pain inside them made something inside me fracture. I went to her, pulling her gently against my chest. Her body softened into mine, but her breaths were uneven, and her fingers clutched at my shirt like she was afraid she would drown if she let go.The prophecy had marked our unborn child. The curse meant for Lyra and her sister had shifted, moved, found new life inside the tiny heartbeat growing within her. Lyra whispered it like a confession, voice cracking under the weight of her fear. She said she felt as if she had damned our child before it was even born. I held

    Lyra’s POVLucius’s abandoned chamber still smelled of dust and death.The torches flickered as I pushed open the heavy iron door, my breath catching when the cold air wrapped around my skin. No one had stepped inside this room since the day Damion ended his reign. His darkness still clung to the stone walls, whispering old curses in the silence.But something… pulled me here tonight.My steps echoed softly as I walked past overturned tables, broken glass, and the remnants of Lucius’s madness. My hand drifted along the cracked desk, brushing away dust, until it caught on something buried beneath—A hidden compartment.I froze.My pulse quickened as I pried it open. A faint scent of old parchment drifted out. Wrapped in black silk, untouched by time, lay a scroll sealed in gold.Not Lucius’s seal.Alaric Byers.Damion’s father. The last true Alpha King.My throat tightened as I broke the seal.The parchment unfurled slowly, trembling between my fingers.The handwriting was bold. Elegan
