Alle Kapitel von Beloved Of The Lycan King : Kapitel 61 – Kapitel 70

Sleep refused to come Even the hours after the courtyard incident, my body remained tense, alert to every sound echoing through the castle halls. The power I had released still lingered beneath my skin, calmer now but undeniably present.I sat near the window of the guest chamber Theodore insisted I use, watching moonlight stretch across the training grounds below. Wolves moved in doubled patrols, their shadows long and restless.The entire territory felt like it was holding its breath.A soft knock came at the door.Before I could answer, Theodore stepped inside.He had clearly not rested either. His hair was slightly disheveled, shirt sleeves rolled up, authority still radiating from him despite exhaustion.“You should be sleeping,” he said.“I could say the same to you.”A faint smile touched his lips, gone almost instantly.He closed the door behind him. “The council has ended.”“That bad?”“Worse.”I turned fully toward him.“Half the Alphas believe your power saved those wolves,

The air felt heavier with every passing hour.Even breathing seemed harder, as if something unseen pressed down on the entire territory. Wolves moved quickly through the castle corridors, whispers following them like shadows.Everyone felt it.The world was changing.And it was happening too fast.I stood beside Theodore on the eastern watchtower overlooking the forest. Morning fog rolled between the trees, thick and unnatural.“It’s too quiet,” I murmured.Theodore nodded slightly. “Animals stopped moving before sunrise.”A bad sign.Predators sensed danger long before it arrived.Killian climbed the tower steps moments later, his expression grim.“Scouts returned,” he said.Theodore didn’t look away from the forest. “Report.”Killian hesitated never a good sign.“We found wolves near the border.”“Enemies?” Theodore asked.“No,” Killian said quietly.“They’re ours.”Cold unease slid down my spine.“What do you mean?” I asked.“They were patrol wolves,” he replied. “Missing since las

The ground wouldn’t stop shaking.Dust fell from the castle ceiling in thin streams as another tremor rolled beneath our feet. Wolves rushed through the corridors carrying weapons, healers shouting orders while fear spread faster than sound itself.Something was waking beneath us.And every instinct inside me screamed that it had been waiting a very long time.“The tunnels,” Selene said urgently. “The energy is coming from below the castle.”Theodore didn’t hesitate. “Killian, secure the upper levels. No one enters or leaves without my command.”Killian nodded sharply and disappeared into the chaos.Theodore turned to me.“You stay behind.”“No,” I said immediately.His jaw tightened. “Kiara”“She’s connected to me,” I interrupted. “Whatever is happening down there involves me.”Silence stretched between us.He knew I was right.Reluctantly, he nodded once. “Then you don’t leave my side.”We descended quickly through spiral stone stairs rarely used anymore. The deeper we went, the col

I didn’t notice the mark immediatelyNot until morning.Sunlight filtered through the tall windows of my chamber, warm and calm — completely opposite to the storm raging inside my thoughts. Sleep had barely touched me after the Veil Queen’s appearance.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her.Felt her presence.Heard her voice.You are worthy of opposing me.The words replayed endlessly.I pushed myself upright, wincing slightly as lingering energy aches ran through my body. My power felt heavier now, deeper like something had settled permanently inside me.I swung my legs off the bed.That’s when I saw it.A faint silver glow on my wrist.I froze.Slowly, I turned my arm toward the light.A delicate symbol shimmered beneath my skin curved lines forming a crown-like shape surrounded by tiny runic marks.My breath caught.“No…”I rubbed at it.It didn’t fade.Instead, the glow pulsed softly, responding to my touch.Fear crawled up my spine.A knock sounded sharply.Before I could answer

No one slept that night.Torches burned across the castle walls while warriors rotated shifts, watching the silent army waiting beyond the forest. The enemy camp stretched endlessly across the plains, thousands of unmoving figures glowing faintly beneath moonlight.They didn’t howl.They didn’t rest.They simply waited.And somehow, that was worse.I stood in the war chamber beside Theodore as commanders gathered around a massive map carved into the stone table. Markers representing defensive lines covered the territory.Killian pointed toward the western approach.“They’ll attack here first,” he said. “Open ground gives them numerical advantage.”“Unless they’re baiting us,” Selene added quietly.Kaelis the newcomer stood across from them, observing silently. Even surrounded by Alphas and warriors, she carried a calm authority that felt ancient.“The Veil Queen doesn’t waste soldiers,” Kaelis finally said. “She breaks morale first.”Theodore crossed his arms. “Explain.”“She will for
