Chapter 131

Lyra's POV The corridors leading to the east tower were empty. I knew not to take to as a bad sign, but the further I walked, the harder it became. The signs were glaring at this point, and for a quick second, I actually thought about turning around and pretending that something else had cut into my plans. While that didn't seem like too much of a bad idea, I couldn't do it. There was no way I would be able to do it. There were no guards, no sound, just the wind whispering through the cracks in the stone.Each step I took echoed too loudly. It felt wrong to make noise here, like the air itself was holding its breath. The torches had burned low now, and the last stretch of the hallway was lit only by the pale spill of daylight through a broken window. The sun was starting to set now, and maybe if cases were reversed and I didn't have a literal war to face, I wouldn't mind staying back to enjoy the view. Hell, I would have even been able to persuade Xavier to come join me. Xavi

Chapter 132

Lyra's POV Time seemed to slow to a moment the minute the words slipped past my lips. If I was being honest, I hadn't even realized that I'd said it till the words hung in the air around us. A small part of me had thought that he didn't hear me, but the moment I saw his eyes widen, I just knew it was over. “But what if I gave you something more?” My own words echoed in my head. The silence was still there, but I noticed something else in his eyes. sadness. Luckily for me, that wasn't the most prominent emotion he was feeling. Underneath the fear of him becoming like his father, I didn't miss m the wild, desperate fire I knew. . The political disaster, the threat of his father, the council, it was all still outside, but right here, right now, I saw the man i wanted to fuck me till I came over and iver again like the dirty slut he always called me. I didn't wait for him to respond. Instead, I reached up and slid my hands under the torn edges of his shirt, gripping the hard warm

Chapter 133

Lyras POV I'd heard of people feeling at peace in the most bizarre ways, but in all my life, I wasn't sure I'd actually experienced that, until now that is. When I'd sought out Xavier, my mind was an anxious mess. A small part of me had thought that Xavier would even yell at me to get out of his presence, but he didn't. Instead, not only did he listen to me, he got to fuck me senseless. That was a win win in my book if you asked me. A cold gust of wind was all it took to pull me out of my daydream. Through the window, I could make out a new weather. It was raining now, and the rain drops were lashing against the tower walls, loud and insistent, but the sound that filled the small space was only the ragged, heavy breathing of Xavier and me. He was still naked, the both of us, but the feel of his length poking at me was more than enough to ignite the fire I thought had already died. Hell, he could kiss my ear, just a bit, and I would be wet for him all over again. I wasn't sure

Chapter 134

Lyra's POV The tower door slammed against the stone as Xavier burst through it, the sound ricocheting down the long corridor like a war drum. I barely had time to grab the rest of my clothes before running after him. This was definitely not the time to thick about it, but if someone were to stumble on me now, they would be able to put two and two together as to why I wasn't completely dressed, why my face looked flustered and why my hair was a damn mess. I didn't care though, the only thing that mattered right now, was catching up with Xavier and trying to figure out what the fuck was going on. I tried to keep up with him,but my breath caught with every step as his boots pounded against the floor.“Xavier, wait!” I shouted, but he didn’t even slow. His stride was all sharp purpose and fury, the kind that didn’t stop for anything, least of all reason. “Please stop. Wait.” The torches along the walls flickered in his wake, their flames bending as if afraid to burn too close. I ha

Chapter 135

Lyra’s POV I'd heard the saying that your life could switch up in the blink of an eye. I'd experienced my fair share of that, and while I thought that might be enough ammunition, nothing, absolutely nothing could have prepared me for the sudden twist of events.It had been a little over a while since it happened, but nothing could have prepared me for it at all. My mind was a mess and whirling with so many thoughts I couldn't control all at once. If someone had whispered this to me, then best believe I would have thought they were mocking me. Just one hour ago, Xavier was writhing behind me, and I could feel his fear of the council with each thrust, so how the fuck had he managed to spin the table so fast, and effortlessly clean too? Hell, I wasn't sure if I was mad or impressed. Maybe both. Definitely both. After Sorin had called for a vote that definitely didn't come from the warmest part of his heart, it was almost surprising that the others had agreed. Since it was just D

Chapter 136

Xavier’s POV The rain hadn’t stopped since last night, a d I couldn't help but feel like it meant anything. Maybe it was poetic, or not, but I only saw the liquid pouring down from the sky as a sign that the heavens were pleased with me. They were pleased with how I'd strategically taken what was mine, and today, I was going to start my rule as the leader of Redmoon. Officially. The mere thought was more than enough to pull a toothy grin on my face. I'd heard others say they didn't like the rain because it signified something sad, but today I was going to have to go with the alternate version. The rain lashed against the stone walls like a punishment, steady and unrelenting, and drumming in rhythm with the thoughts I couldn’t silence.The fire in the council chamber had burned low, but the smoke still clung to the air, a stubborn reminder of everything that had changed, or perhaps, everything I had destroyed.Cassian stood near the door, soaked to the bone, giving quiet orders

Chapter 137

Lyra's POV By the time I found Xavier again, the rain had stopped, but the air still felt heavy, like the world hadn’t quite decided whether it was done bleeding. I'd heard that most times, the weather mirrored how the people felt when there was a big event happening, or right after it had been concluded. Take Xavier's coronation for example. I had no idea he'd planned something like this, and even if he had, a small tiny part of me almost felt like it wouldn't have mattered. If Cassian couldn't convince him, what were the chances that the results would be any different if the efforts came from me? While rain had always been used to signify a good beginning, I didn't think that was Redmoon's case. If anything, the entire sky was gloomy, like the heavens itself were mourning the turn of events. I wasn't that superstitious, but I could've help but mutter a prayer to the moon goddess that everything would be okay, in due time. The guards outside the lower cells didn’t meet my eye

Chapter 138

Lyra’s POV For a long moment, I couldn’t move, and in all honesty, I wasn't sure anyone could blame me. If there was anything, the kiss had caught me off guard. Liess. My wolf screamed in my head. You know it was coming, and you wanted it. We both did. I hadn't been more grateful that no one else could hear my wolf asides me. If Xavier had heard that, then I didn't even want to imagine what would happen. It was probably wishful thinking, but I would be be surprised if he decided to take me in front of everyone here, especially Xander and Emily. The taste of him still lingered on my tongue. He tasted like smoke and heat and something darker, something that felt like surrender. The air around us was thick enough to choke on, and even though I told myself to look away, I couldn’t. Not when he was staring at me like that.His hand was still at my neck, thumb pressed just below my jaw, his breathing steady and deep. The chain in the corner rattled softly, and that’s when I remembere

Chapter 139

Lyra's POV The air outside the cell felt colder and thinner somehow, like the walls themselves were holding their breath after what had just happened. Everything seemed to have been muddled up after that, and I hated that I couldn't pin point if the kiss was the problem, or the little scene that Xavier had made down there. A tiny voice stirred deep in my mind, and somehow, I already knew what she was going to say. She was going to blame the kiss, and the fact that I'd agreed to kiss Xavier. But what was I supposed to do? Not kiss him? Judging from the last series of events, Xavier had become more dangerous, and if he could withhold a piece of evidence that could have prevented all of this hullabaloo till the last minute, then I was actually scared of what he was going to do if I hadn't kissed him. After the kiss, I'd stormed out of there. There was no way I would be able to look either of them in the eye, even if I tried. Xavier had called after me, but I ignored him, so I gue

Chapter 140

Lyra’s POV I always thought that with the number of things I'd gone through, that I could take anything life could throw at me, but apparently I was wrong. Very wrong because why was the cause of my undoing, coming from a simple sentence? Say yes. Say yes. My moral compass was spiraling now, and despite how loud it was in my ears, deep down I already knew what my answer was going to be. I wanted Xavier, I wanted him to take me right here and right now, over and over again. Maybe I was just ashamed that he'd beat me to it and was making me see just how much I wanted him too. I was caught in a whirlwind of want and fear, the lines blurring between them with every breath Xavier took near my ear. His words, husky and demanding, promised a surrender I hadn't known I craved. "Say yes," he'd whispered, his hand on my ass, a gentle squeeze that still managed to steal my breath.And I did. "Yes," I heard myself breathe, a desperate, tiny sound lost in the quiet of the corridor. It f
