《Rejected and Banished: Claimed by the Lycan King》全部章節：第 111 章 - 第 120 章

LYRA The air got thicker the closer we got. At first, I thought I was just tired. None of us had slept well since Fenrir and Orion were taken. Every hour felt like the next every mile felt like it was never going to end. My body was tired. My heart would not stop. My sons were ahead that is all that mattered. I held the reins tight as Storm, my mare walked on the trail. The forest had. We did not even notice. The big pine trees were. Now there were old twisted trees with roots that looked like fingers. Moss covered the broken stones, and weird symbols were carved into the rocks. It felt wrong like we were in a place that the world had forgotten. Kael rode quietly on my left and Ares was ahead looking at the trees all the time. Neither of them looked calm. Neither did I. Commander Rowan stopped his horse and turned to us. “My Queen " he said. “What is it?" I asked. He pointed to the ground. I saw fresh hoof prints, many of them. “They were here more than two hours ago

ARESI yelled out Kael’s name.My voice was loud. The big mountain swallowed it up.He did not even turn around.The moment Serena went down the stairs he ran after her. He did not think twice. His sword was shining in the light as rocks were falling from the ceiling around him.I said “damn it”.He was not thinking like a king anymore.He was thinking like a father.When someone threatens their kids fathers can be very dangerous.The ground shook again.The whole place was making a lot of noise like something big was waking up under the mountain.Commander Rowan held onto a pillar to keep his balance then he looked at me.“My Lord” he said.I made myself think clearly.Panic was what Serena wanted.She knew we would chase her.She knew we would forget about our plan as soon as we heard the boys’ voices.No I thought.She had planned this from the start.I told the soldiers nobody follows blindly.They all stopped moving away.I said split the company.Rowan nodded.I asked him to tak

SERENA I heard the sound of steel before I heard the scream. It echoed through the sanctuary in bursts bouncing off the old stone until it was hard to tell where the fighting was. They had arrived. Right on schedule. I stood at the edge of the sanctum my fingers touching the smooth surface of the black altar that had taken up a big part of my life. Many people had searched for this place. Kings. Scholars. Crazy people. None of them understood it. They thought the sanctuary was a weapon. It wasn’t. It was like a judge. It didn’t care who ruled the kingdoms. It only cared about blood. The right blood. Behind me the twins sat inside the silver circle. The chains around their wrists weren’t made of iron. They were made from moon magic, soft enough not to hurt their skin but impossible to break by force. Orion had cried himself to sleep. His little head rested against Fenrir’s shoulder. Fenrir hadn’t slept once. He watched everything. Every guard. Every doorway. Ev

LYRAFor one moment I forgot how to breathe. Those eyes were not just glowing they were watching me with a patience that was really scary. It was like they had seen everything, from the beginning of time to the end. Every instinct in my body was screaming at me to step.. I did not step back. I stepped forward. I did this because Fenrir and Orion were a few feet away from me. Nothing else mattered to me at that moment. Nothing.Orion’s tiny voice cracked as he said "Mama!" His little arms were stretched out towards me. Tears were flowing down his cheeks. "I want to go " he said. His words broke my heart. "I'm taking you home " I said, trying to sound calm. My voice was shaking. "I promise " I added.Fenrir despite everything that was happening managed to smile. "I told Ori you'd come " he said. He was standing as close to his brother as he could, protecting him. My heart was aching. "My brave boy " I said. "You don't have to be brave. I'm here " I told him.The runes around them were f

ARES The mountain is dying. The first crack splits the floor beneath my boots with a loud sound. Warriors stumble as old stone gives way while silver light and black shadow collide overhead lighting up the cavern in flashes. This isn’t a battle anymore. It’s a race against time. “Fall back!" Commander Rowan shouts. His voice is hard to hear over the chaos. One of the pillars falls, crushing some of Serena’s soldiers under tons of rock. Dust fills the chamber covering everything in a haze. I pull Lyra behind me just as another section of the ceiling crashes down. “Are you hurt?” She shakes her head away. “No.” She never asks about herself first. Her eyes are already looking for the boys. Fenrir stands close to Kael one hand holding his father’s cloak. Orion clings to Lyra’s leg shaking but not crying. “They’re scared " Lyra whispers. I look at the twins. Scared? Of course they are. They just survived being kidnapped, chained, and almost used in a ritual. Somehow… T
