A new escort to the northern continent

Ivonne's povMy head instantly snapped up, and I gaped in shock when I saw who it was."What the fuck--"Thorin stepped inside like he owned the air in the room, calm, composed, completely unbothered by the fact that he had just barged into my private space uninvited.My irritation flared immediately. “Do you not know how to fucking knock, Lord Thorin? Or is the great Lycan warrior above basic manners now?” I sneered with mocking respect.He didn’t even react to that. His eyes simply landed on me. “You’re going to the Northern Continent.”It was a statement, not a question. Fuck! How the hell did he find that out so quickly? Was he spying on me?!I let out a sigh, there was no use denying it. He most definitely forced more than half the staff here to tell him my every move.I narrowed my eyes at him. “Yes, I'm going back. And that’s none of your business.”“It is now,” he said simply.Before I could respond, he stepped closer and grabbed my wrist as I turned away.His grip was not ha

Intent to deceive

Ivonne's povThe anxiety in my chest only got worse the closer I got to leaving.I adjusted the strap of my bag over my shoulder and stepped out of the room, trying to ignore the hollow feeling clawing through me, but the second I reached the corridor leading outside, my feet slowed.Then they stopped completely and my gaze drifted toward the healer’s quarters.My heart twisted so painfully I almost turned and ran towards that area.Goddess.Hector was still in there and still unconscious.And I couldn’t even go say goodbye.For a second, I just stood there silently in the middle of the hallway while servants walked past me nervously, pretending not to notice the expression on my face.I swallowed hard.At least he was asleep. At least he wasn’t awake asking for me.Because if Hector had opened his eyes and reached for me while I was forced to stay away from him…I honestly did not know if I would have been strong enough to keep that vow.The thought alone nearly shattered me, so I c

The emergency at the manor

Ivonne's povI barely had time to react before the arm around me tightened and hauled me straight off my feet.A shocked scream ripped out of my throat as the world tilted violently around me.“What the hell—?!”For one horrifying second, I thought it was an attack from yet another night devourer.My heart slammed painfully against my ribs as panic exploded through me, but before I could even struggle properly—Thorin moved at a terrifyingly high speed.One second he was beside Justin.The next second he was already moving behind me, grabbing the person who held me and violently yanking them away from my body.I stumbled as the grip disappeared from around me, then I fell hard onto the ground with a gasp.“Ivonne!” Justin shouted.But I barely heard him because all I could focus on was Thorin.He looked furious, deadly furious.His blue eyes were glowing dangerously as he slammed his fist into the stranger who had grabbed me.The man staggered backward from the force of the hit and ne

The unexpected evidence

Ivonne's pov“We found the person who murdered your mother, Ivonne.”My entire body went cold and for a second, I genuinely could not breathe.“We know who did it Ivonne.”Lincoln’s words kept echoing inside my head over and over again as if my mind refused to process them properly.My mother was murdered, and her murderer was found.Even though I had already discovered the truth that my mother's death was not natural months ago, hearing another person say it aloud still felt horrifying.Because nobody else was supposed to know.Nobody, except Hector knew because I told him weeks ago. And Mr. Archibald also knew before his death, and he told me to keep it a secret until justice was found because no one could be trusted.That was it. So how—My eyes widened as panic immediately surged through me.“How do you even know my mother was murdered?” I demanded.Lincoln looked startled by the sharpness in my voice.Justin and Thorin both turned toward him too.Lincoln raised his hands slightly
