Third personAfter Caelan left Kelvin, he didn't go back to Rain. He walked to the gate. There, Vegas was already in his car, just waiting. The moment Cealan stepped out of the gates, without thinking, he got down, not even waiting for the guard to help him open the door."I...""I don't want to hear it," Cealan said sternly."When will you be coming back?" Vegas asked, his hands clasped together."What is it to you if I return or not? Last I checked, you wanted me dead.""I...didn't," Vegas whispered, but his body had already betrayed him.Cealan stepped closer, his breath heavy. "You forget I know you too well, Vegas," he whispered. The words drilled down like cold water. "Every time you lie...your eyes flicker. Not long, but quick enough not to go unnoticed."Vegas' breath hitched, his hands trembling. "He...he saved your legs," he said."Yes...the same legs you crippled.""I didn't...I swear it was an accident. I know last time it was my fault, but no, your legs...Caelan, I did no

Third personAnother day went by with nothing but pain and groans from the king. Meanwhile, outside the palace walls, the people had begun coming forward. Some came with flowers; others came with raw food for the crown prince while they sang his praise.Rain had woken up that morning feeling a little down. His mind was still heavy with thoughts of Kebel, and he couldn't dismiss the worry. Cealan had stepped out in the early hours, while Idris and Viola brought back his things, which were taken to the new wing back. Leaning on the balcony, he could see the people before the gate chanting and singing. Those who noticed him waved with excitement, while others presented him with flowers. Rain could only nod but dared not go down or let the guards allow them in.The situation around him was still hanging by a thread, and caution was his best weapon. So he smiled, waved back, and thanked them. They didn't stay long; seeing him was enough, but they made sure to hand their gifts and flowers

Marcus opened his mouth, but no words came out."We move ahead," Logan Cowell cleared his throat. "The situation of Alpha Kelvin is not a small matter. He is not only an alpha of another pack, but Silverreach owes him justice, for not only was he our guest, but he attended the banquet under a royal invitation, and I insist his matter be treated not only with care but urgency.""Exactly what I was saying. Everything happened too quickly, and we have only one suspect.""Marcus, I advise you to rehearse your next words," Rain warned."Else what? You will do the same to me?" Marcus dared.Rain did not need to bark like a wounded dog. "How about I tell you exactly what happened to your friend?"Rain's words dropped dangerously cold, and for a moment, Marcus thought about his next action, but pride would not let him back down."Are you confessing?" Marcus stood up and inched closer."No... I am saying I could, if you would like to have a taste... I don't mind."Rain's words didn't sound nor

Third personInside the locked bedroom, Cealan could feel Raze pace violently in Rain's mind like a trapped beast with no escape routes.Time went on, but Rain still refused to speak, open the door, or come out, and Cealan was growing restless. He didn't like the frustrated feeling he was getting from their bond.One minute, Rain felt as though his thoughts were collected, and the next, his mind was all over the place. But in the last hour, he was calm, and Raze seemed to have settled a little.But then suddenly, a loud crash echoed through the walls, and without thinking, Cealan sprang to his feet. His fist slammed against the doorframe, but it didn't break or even react, as if something had hit against it.The wood was hard, but then again, he didn't give up. He came at it again with full force. His shoulders slammed against it, and it came crashing to the ground.Cealan rushed in, and there Rain was, staggering towards the glass balcony door, his bare feet amidst shattered glass an

Third PersonMorning sun beamed through the tall walls of the palace; servants were up and about while guards had changed shifts. Within the king's chamber, King Aldric woke up a little more energetic. Bel had spared him throughout the night. Since he came back from wherever he had gone, he said just a few words. "He isn't ready... so I can't stay." And Bel was gone.Kebel took full control but still would not meet his eyes. It was like two strangers sharing a common space. And for the very first time in years, a maid was allowed inside to help the king get ready for morning court. The poor servant would not stop shaking; her knees nearly buckled at the intense gaze of Sir Kebel, and by the time she was done, she almost ran out."You're coming?" King Aldric asked."I have a duty," Kebel answered.Before Aldric, Kebel would have followed without question, but not this time around. He calmly sat down."Get ready." Two words.Kebel obeyed and walked to the bathroom, and soon echoes of ru
