All Chapters of LOVE IN VENGEANCE : Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

Chapter 1 – LishaThe night was cold, it get into the bones no matter how close one sat to the fire. The torches along the hall burned weakly, but their shadows are more visible against the stone walls. I sat at the far end of the table with my parents and my father’s men, everyone was silent, there's also fear in the air, we can all feel it.King Camus had destroyed the Ironborn Pack only yesterday. Every man, woman, even newborns, they were all slaughtered. If you were a werewolf, or even tied to one by blood or marriage, you were marked for death.“It’s possible our position has been exposed,” one of Father’s men said. Breaking the silence with is sharp voice with his hand clenched against the table. “The king tortured Ironborn survivors. They may have spoken.”“It’s not just about leaving,” another argued. “It’s where we go. We can’t just vanish into thin air without being noticed.”My father was silent, his hand resting in my mother’s. She gave his fingers a small squeeze, but wh

Chapter 3- Lisha My eyes open slowly, everything was blurry at first. I pushed myself up slowly, my head was spinning, my body was weak. Around me, I heard faint cries and hurried footsteps outside, but none of it mattered. “Where is my father? Where is he?” I asked.“Lisha, please....” Perrone’s hand tightened on my arm. He tried to shush me, but his soft words only made my fear climb higher.“No” I broke free from his grasp, stumbled forward, and kicked the door open.It was really cold outside, my eyes darted everywhere, searching desperately. Didn't take a moment, I saw my father laying on the ground. Blood covered his throat and still seeping slowly into the dirt beneath him. His eyes was half-open, staring into nothing.“No, no, no....” My knees collapsed immediately and I crawled toward him with trembling hands. The moment my fingers closed around his, he was really cold.“Father, no, no, no, no, no, please, please wake up.” My voice cracked into a sob as I shook him, as if

Chapter 5 – LishaThat night, I set out on the road. The air was cold, biting at my cheeks as I walked. My boots crunched softly on the dirt path, and for hours, silence was my only company. Then, faintly ahead, I caught the glow of a lantern swaying in the darkness.An old man was walking at a careful pace, leading a mule stacked with bundles. He stopped, tilting his head toward me.“Traveling alone at this hour?” he said gently. “That’s dangerous.”I slowed down, unsure whether to respond. His eyes, however, carried no threat. When I caught up, he reached into his sack and held out a piece of bread.“Here. You look like you could use it.”I hesitated before taking it. “Thank you.” I said silently.We walked side by side. He spoke now and then, asking about my journey, but I gave little more than short replies. My mind was elsewhere, heavy with thoughts I couldn’t share.When we reached a fork in the road, he stopped. His lantern light cast shadows across his wrinkled face as he stud

Chapter-7-LishaCarefully, I tiptoed back from the door and slipped through the narrow back entrance of the clinic. I pressed myself against the wall at an angle, just far enough that anyone who opened the main door would not see me. I forced myself to hold my breath, every muscle in my body was stiff with tension.The door creaked open. A soldier stepped inside, sword unsheathed, his sharp gaze sweeping the space I had just been standing in moments ago. He frowned, lowering his blade slightly as confusion spread across his face. “I thought someone was here,” he said.The others came out of the clinic. Prince Lucan himself came out, His eyes followed the direction of the soldier’s blade before drifting toward where I hid in the shadows.For one moment, I thought his gaze stayed too long.Then he said calmly, “Maybe not.”The soldier stepped back uncertainly, sheathing his sword.Lucan turned to Leon, who had followed them into the corridor, and spoke with casual authority. “Tomorrow,”

Chapter-9-LishaI didn’t understand why I felt unease every time Prince Lucan crossed my path. My wolf stirred restlessly, refusing to calm. I was not easily frightened, yet something about him scare at me from the inside.I forced myself to appear calm. Fear will increased the suspicion they already had. One of Leon’s men had been shadowing me these past days. A skilled warrior lurking behind me, l couldn't even did as if I've noticed without betraying myself? That morning, as I dressed, I caught my reflection in the small mirror. I had become pale, yet my frame is still heavy by my father’s standards. A warrior should be light as a feather, he used to say, laughing at me. My mother would have fretted over my face, smoothed my hair with her hands. The thought of them broke me. Tears slipped down before I could stop them. I wiped them away fast, fixing my hair until no trace of weakness remained.At the clinic, there wasn't much work to be done.By midday, Leon called me.“Lisha. My
