《Claimed By The Lycan King》全部章節：第 41 章 - 第 47 章

Lyra’s POVThe place reeked of sweat and despair, thick with the crushed spirits of Omegas who had been ground down by their own lives. It was nothing like the room and the rest of the wings I’ve been to in the packhouse. The atmosphere was entirely different. “This will be your room,” she gestured at me to follow her once more as she spoke. I followed her, trying to look steadier than I felt, my cheek still carrying the pain of Eileen's slap.The laundry hall was large and almost stifling. Women worked in pairs and threes, their sleeves rolled to their elbows. A few glanced at me. Most did not.Matilda stopped near the far end of the hall and turned to face me.“You will be joining the omegas on laundry duty today," she said..I looked at the stacked clothes waiting to be sorted. "Okay," I said, already resigned to fate. Back to being treated like a slave I once was.Matilda studied me for a moment with that same measuring look she always gave, like she was filing something away.

Lyra’s POVI jerked awake to the sound of the door flying open, my breath caught in my throat in the little cot that was barely my length. Matilda stood at the entrance and whispered two words. "Follow me." She led me back to the same route that led to my old room.Just like that I was back to my room. I wondered what had caused the change. I sat on the edge of the bed and stared at the wall until my eyes burned.The days that followed became harder. I had thought that being moved back to the guest wing would mean a return to the status I had held before Eileen's intervention. Restricted movement, yes. Mia bringing meals, yes. But a certain baseline of being left alone.I was wrong.The omegas knew where I had been. Word traveled fast in the working quarters of a packhouse. They had seen me in the laundry hall. They had watched Matilda assign me to Harper's group. And now, seeing me returned to the guest wing with no explanation, they had drawn their own conclusions about what I was

Lyra’s POV“You.”The single word struck me harder than any slap I had ever received. I stood still frozen. My fingers tightened around the fabric of my dress as I stared at him. He was still exactly as terrifying as I remembered. My heart hammered violently against my ribs.He has finally found me.After everything that had happened, after all the nights I had spent wondering whether I would ever escape this place, he was standing in front of me. And the first thought that entered my mind was absurdly simple.How am I going to get away from him this time?My feet shifted backward. He noticed.His lips curled slightly. “Still trying to run?”I swallowed. I wanted to deny it. I wanted to tell him he had mistaken me for someone else.Before I could respond, Logan turned his attention to Cormac.“I am taking her.”The words echoed through the banquet hall. A murmur swept through the gathered wolves.Cormac stepped forward. “No.” “You don't get to say no.” Logan's expression hardened.C

Lyra’s POV The journey to Stormbringer was painfully quiet. I sat in the back seat, my forehead resting against the cool glass as the landscape outside blurred into streaks of green and grey. The road seemed endless, winding through thick forests and unfamiliar territories.I had stopped checking the time displaying on the car's headboard. There was nothing else to do.My wrists were free, but I felt more trapped than I had ever been. Maybe because I knew who was taking me there.The Lycan King. My supposed mate. The man who had once stood at an altar waiting for me to mark him, only to discover that I couldn't shift. The man who had walked away promising war. And now he had come back for me.I swallowed hard.“Do you think we'll be okay?” I asked Nyx.“I don't know.” She sighed. I sighed too and turned my face toward the window. Every now and then, I caught glimpses of mountains in the distance, their peaks disappearing behind mist.I wondered how far we were from Lunar Legion. How
