Chapter 81 - Five minutes

Seraphines POVLunch had already ended, but the taste of it lingered unpleasantly in my mouth.Not because of the food, the food was delicious to an extent.But because of the silence.Darius had been composed.. too composed. Aurelian had chattered happily between us, blissfully unaware of the quiet currents moving beneath the table. And across the hall, I had felt it again.Fael was watching us or me, not casually or curiously.. no he was watching with intent and I had endured it.I always endured.After lunch, I dismissed everyone.“I’ll walk,” I said calmly.Darius’ eyes flicked to mine briefly. “Alone?”“Yes.”Then there was a pause that was brief for anyone else to notice.“Not too far,” he said evenly.“I know.”Our gazes held for a moment longer than necessary then I turned.The corridor beyond the dining hall was quieter, lined with tall stone windows and woven banners bearing the Grimfang crest. My heels echoed softly against marble floors and I finally exhaled out all the

Chapter 82 - What Remains

Faels PovI did not return to the council chamber after my little chit chat with Seraphine.I did not return to the training yard either.I returned to my room.The door shut behind me with a finality that felt like judgment.For a long moment, I stood there, staring at nothing.Five minutes.She had almost given me five minutes.Mylor laughed inside my skull.‘Almost.’“Be silent,” I muttered.‘She almost softened,’ he pressed, in an amused way. ‘Did you see her eyes?’“I saw restraint.”‘You saw regret.’I crossed the room, poured wine into a goblet, and swallowed it in one motion. It burned down my throat and did nothing to calm me.“She doesn’t regret me,” I said.‘No,’ Mylor replied lazily. ‘She regrets what you could have been.’The goblet cracked slightly in my grip.Outside my window, the courtyard lights flickered.I could still see her in that corridor.Standing straight, stronger, colder and more beautiful than I remembered.No.Not colder.. Clearer.‘She glows now,’ Mylor

Chapter 83 - The hollow king

Fael POVI didn’t look at her face. If I looked at her, I would see the wrong eyes, the wrong smile, the wrong soul. I just needed the noise and slick and maybe I needed the friction to drown out the sound of Seraphine’s voice telling me she had rebuilt herself without me."On the bed," I commanded, my voice hard like a gravel.She obeyed instantly. I noticed that she was a creature of habit and fear as she slid out of her dress until she was looking like a pale ghost against my dark sheets. I moved over her, not with the tenderness of a lover, but with the desperation of a man trying to outrun a haunting. I didn't kiss her. I didn't romance her. I simply parted her legs and drove into her."Ah! Mmggh... mmggh!" She let out a sharp cry, her fingers clutching at my shoulders as I filled her up.I began to move, my pace hard and unrelenting.. I just needed to release so I could sleep properly. I had no time to play nice or act kingly. I was fast, my hips striking hers with a rhyt

Chapter 84 - Eyes on the heir

Anton POVIf there’s one thing I have noticed it was the fact that.. Children laugh differently than adults.Without calculation, without politics and without blood in their history.Aurelian’s laughter carried across the courtyard like something clean.I stood beneath the shaded archway with my hands folded behind my back, posture relaxed enough not to draw suspicion.That annoying citadel beta Kade crouched before the boy, mock growling.“You think you can outrun me, little wolf?” Kade teased.Aurelian grinned fiercely. “I’m faster!”“You’re smaller.”“That makes me quick.”I almost smiled.. The heir darted past Kade, wooden sword in hand, hair bouncing, confidence effortless.He moved like someone who had never feared abandonment.Interesting.“You’re watching too closely.”The voice came from my left but I did not dare show that I was startled.“I observe everything it is my job,” I replied calmly.Seraphine stood several steps away, Darius at her side. They both watched the boy w

Chapter 85 - cravings

Liora POVAfter dinner the door opened without a knock.Only one man in this palace had the audacity.But it was not the man I expected.Anton crossed the threshold and shut the door behind him in one smooth motion.This was the first time I had not expected and before I could speak..He was on me.His hand cupped the back of my neck and his mouth crashed against mine with urgency that tasted like frustration.For half a breath, I let him then I pushed against his chest.“What is wrong with you?” I whispered sharply and instead of replying he kissed me again.. Harder and more possessive.Almost reckless.“Anton..”He pulled back just enough for our foreheads to brush.“Isn’t this what you’ve been craving?” he murmured and his voice was low and rough.My hand drifted down instinctively to my abdomen.The subtle swell beneath my palm.I looked down.Then back at him.He watched me carefully and slowly..I smiled.“Then what are you waiting for?” I whispered.His expression shifted and h

Chapter 86 - Nothing beside me

Fael POVI woke before the sun.Not because I had rested enough but because I hadn’t.The room was quiet or should I say heavy with the dull scent of extinguished candles and something sweeter like perfume clinging to sheets that did not feel like mine.Liora slept beside me her breathing was even and peaceful.I stared at her then back at the ceiling and felt absolutely nothing, no warmth, no satisfaction, no comfort.Just weight.Mylor stirred inside me. ‘So I guess we really stayed huh.’“Yes.”‘And?’“Nothing.”He huffed. ‘That bad huh?’I turned my head slightly Liora shifted in her sleep, her hand brushing my chest lightly as if claiming territory even in unconsciousness.The gesture felt rehearsed but I said nothing.“You’re awake,” she murmured, eyes still closed.“Yes.”“Did you sleep?”“Enough.”She opened her eyes slowly and smiled. It was soft, controlled and designed.“You look distant.”“I’m thinking about something.”“You always are.”Her hand drifted lower, resting ove

Chapter 87 - the seat that fits

Seraphines POVOne thing about having breakfast in the dining hall was that it was never truly about food and drinks.It was theater.Silver trays glowed beneath the chandeliers while early morning sunlight made its way through the arched windows. Servants moved in their usual synchronized silence and the guards stood like statues carved from loyalty and fear.And at the long central table..We performed our normal theatrical acts in the name of trying to be peaceful so we won’t scare my baby.I entered beside Darius and for some weird reason I noticed that he did not touch me although he did not need to as the warmth I felt at my side was steady, grounding and calm.But still..Aurelian ran ahead the moment we stepped inside.“Papa! Uncle Kade said we can play again and I can beat him today!”Darius chuckled softly. “Is that so my little wolf?”Kade stood near the far end of the table, already grinning. “I only said maybe.”“No! You said definitely!” Aurelian protested.“I said if y

Chapter 88 - What is mine

Fael PovI saw her laugh.It was not loud.It was not dramatic.It was soft.Private.Real.And it split something inside me clean down the center.They stood beneath the archway in the courtyard. Aurelian ran ahead with Kade, their voices echoing in carefree bursts.And she.. She stood beside Darius.Not touching him not clinging towards him she was just there..As if she belonged… As if she had always belonged next to him.Darius leaned toward her and murmured something too low for me to hear.Seraphine’s lips curved into a soft smile. The kind of smile she used to give me when we had first met before she learned how to survive me.My chest tightened. “Look at her,” Mylor’s voice growled inside my mind.“I am looking.”“She does not look at you.”Darius shifted slightly, his shoulder brushing hers.It was like he was claiming without claiming and she did not step away, she did not stiffen, she did not even hesitate.Instead, she tilted her face towards him and said something that m

Chapter 89 - Marry me

Darius POV‘Come on.. Gather your big boy pants and just ask her already’ Chiron muttered.‘I will I’m just not ready for her answer’ I replied him.‘Oh please what are you so worried about? The highest she can say is no’I almost asked her to marry me again but not the way I did seven years ago, not with strategy folded into the vow.Not with death at our backs and enemies circling like vultures.This time, I almost asked because I had deeply fallen in love with her.The thought had been building inside me for a while in a quiet, persistent, and dangerous way.We were in the chambers after supper. The torches along the corridor burned low, casting soft gold across the carved stone walls. Inside, the room felt warmer and safer.Aurelian was in the middle of telling Seraphine a dramatic version of his day.“And then,” he declared, standing tall on the bed, wooden sword raised, “Unclr Kade said I cheated.”“You probably did,” Seraphine replied calmly from the chair beside him.“I did n

Chapter 90 - The first whisper

Liora povThe palace slept beautifully.That was what I had learned.It slept like a creature that believed itself untouchable.. heavy, confident, unaware of the knife sliding gently between its ribs.The corridors were quieter past midnight, and even the torches burned lower, as though exhausted by the day’s diplomacy and carefully rehearsed smiles. Shadows pooled in the corners like secrets waiting to be claimed.I pulled my cloak tighter around my shoulders as I stepped into the eastern courtyard.The moon was thin tonight, it was not yet red and not yet dangerous.. But close.“Late walks do not suit a woman in your condition.”The voice came from the shadows beneath the archway.“They suitme perfectly,” I replied smoothly. “Especially when discretion was required and in my condition I’m expected to excercise.”He stepped forward just enough for the torchlight to catch the edge of his cloak. His face remained hidden, just as we had agreed.“You said this could not wait,” he said.
