บททั้งหมดของ Reborn for the Lycan king : บทที่ 211 - บทที่ 220

Eros’s POV The wolf roared again, and this time, it wasn’t trapped. It burst through me, a tidal wave of power that shattered glass, rattled the chamber walls, and sent Ronan stumbling to his knees.For a second, just one second, my eyes cleared. The world sharpened. The bond flared like fire.She was still alive and I could feel it. She was weak, and scared, yes, but alive.And I would not let her die again.My wolf’s voice merged with mine, one heartbeat, one vow.She dies, and the world burns.But the surge of power was too much, even for a lycan king. My body couldn’t hold it. My vision darkened at the edges again, blood dripping from my nose, the transformation faltering.Ronan rose slowly, his eyes wary now but triumphant.“You’ll die anyway. You just don’t know it yet, but at least stop wasting your time trying to fight the poison.”I tried to move, but my limbs were lead. The ancient energy crackled through me, barely contained.The last thing I saw before the darkness swallo

Aria’s POVElara moved closer again, smirking. “Oh, Aria, still clinging to hope. Don’t you get it? Your father’s already dying. The poison did its job slowly, beautifully. Everyone believes Darren saved him, your pack already loves him. They’ll hand him the Crescent pack themselves once you’re gone and your father dead.”The words hit harder than any slap could have.I jerked against the ropes so hard the chair nearly toppled, but Darren caught it effortlessly, his grip tightening around my shoulders.“You’re lying, no one will hand the pack over to you!” I breathed.He leaned close, his breath brushing against my ear. “Am I?”My pulse thundered in my throat.“The whole pack now believes you came back to me out of love,” he murmured. “That’s the beauty of it. You walked right into my home, right into my hands. You made my job easy, Aria.”My chest heaved. Every part of me burned with rage, but there was nowhere for it to go. I screamed, the sound raw and violent, echoing through the

Aria’s POVI stared at her, the horror blooming in my chest like fire. “When the red dress, it was you..”She tilted her head. “Oh, don’t look at me like that, darling. It wasn’t personal. Well,” she paused, grinning, “maybe a little personal, but I just convinced her to wear it. I needed to keep my game going. You always thought you were better than me. Smarter, purer, more loved. Even after all these while, you still thought the world owed you its loyalty.”My tears came harder, burning now, hot as acid. “You’re sick.”She laughed softly. “No, I’m just honest. Darren and I have always understood each other. We don’t play by your rules.”I couldn’t stop shaking. Every muscle in my body screamed with rage. “You pretended,” I whispered. “You said you were my friend, even made me tea..”“Poisoned tea,” Darren cut in idly, not even looking up.I choked on my next breath. “You what?”Elara’s smile turned sharp. “A mild dose, nothing fatal. Just enough to keep you weak, enough to make you

Aria’s POV Derek stepped inside, his jaw tightening. “Really? Because it looks exactly like what it looks like.”He glanced around the room, at the ropes around my wrists, at the circle drawn in chalk on the floor, the open book on the altar. His gaze hardened.“Let her go.”Elara scoffed. “You shouldn’t be here, Derek. You have no idea what you’re walking into.”“Oh, I know exactly what I’m walking into,” he snapped. “You’ve been lying to her, both of you. And I’m done pretending not to see it.”Darren’s expression sharpened. “How did you even get in here? Where are my guards?”“I told them I was bringing orders from the Alpha.” Derek’s voice was steady, but I could see his hand shaking. “Turns out they’re easier to fool than I thought.”Everywhere was silent for a while and the tension thickened, suffocating us all. “You should leave,” Darren said quietly, a dangerous calm threading through his tone.Derek’s hand moved to his pocket slowly. “You think I’m walking away from this?

Darren’s POV“Exactly,” she said, smiling.I pulled her back, my patience thinning. “It’s enough, Elara."She smirked. “Don’t think too much, there’s nothing to think about my love.”“There is.” I responded coldly. “Because Derek slowed everything down and if that call went through.."“It didn’t.” She tilted her head, her tone turning sing-song. “You ended it, remember? You were brilliant, my love. You always are.”I exhaled sharply, trying to let her words settle the rising storm in my head.The road narrowed again, branches brushing against the car’s windows. The air grew thicker, colder even. But we were getting closer to our destination.When we stopped, Marv and Kellen were out of the car before the engine had even gone quiet. They opened the trunk, pulling Derek out first. His head lolled, blood drying at the corner of his mouth where he’d hit the floor earlier. They brought Aria out next. Her body was light, too light, and I couldn’t look at her face for more than a second.“Ta
