All Chapters of Bound To The Alpha King : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Kael smiled.And every wolf in the courtyard immediately looked terrified.Not because the expression was loud or dramatic.But because it was calm.Cold.The kind of smile that belonged to a predator moments before bloodshed.Snow drifted silently around him while the distant screams from the outer gates echoed faintly across the capital.The Black Hollow King had breached the kingdom walls.And he was threatening civilians.Lyra felt Kael’s power surge violently beside her, dark energy rolling off him in crushing waves that made nearby guards lower themselves instinctively.Even Lucien’s expression sharpened.“Well,” the Northern King murmured quietly. “That’s unfortunate.”Magnus snapped toward Kael immediately.“You cannot go alone.”Kael’s silver-black eyes remained fixed toward the eastern side of the capital where smoke now curled into the stormy sky.“Watch me.”The deadly calm in his voice sent chills down Lyra’s spine.He meant it.Every word.Kael was about to walk directly

“And millions died because of it.”The words echoed across the ruined courtyard long after Cassian stopped speaking.No one moved.Snow drifted silently through the frozen air while distant screams and battle horns still echoed faintly from the eastern district of the capital. Somewhere beyond the castle walls, wolves were still fighting and dying.But inside the courtyard…Everything had stopped.Lyra stared at Cassian while her heartbeat pounded painfully against her ribs.The last time the First Queen bonded with the Shadow King, the world nearly ended.And now everyone kept looking at her and Kael like history was happening all over again.“No,” Lyra whispered finally. “That doesn’t make sense.”Cassian’s silver eyes softened slightly.“It rarely does in the beginning.”Kael stepped forward again, placing himself instinctively between Lyra and Cassian.Protective.Always protective.The movement didn’t escape anyone’s notice.Cassian watched it happen silently before exhaling soft

Lyra recognized it.And that terrified her more than anything else that had happened tonight.The growl echoed across the capital again—deep, ancient, unnatural enough to shake the frozen air itself.Every wolf in the courtyard froze instantly.Not out of confusion.Out of instinctive fear.The sound didn’t feel like it belonged to the modern world.It felt old.Older than kingdoms. Older than the bond. Older than the First Wolves themselves.Cassian’s expression had gone completely still.Lucien looked grim.Magnus actually took a step backward.“What,” Kael said coldly, “was that?”Nobody answered immediately.Another growl rolled through the storm-covered mountains.Closer this time.The silver markings beneath Lyra’s skin flared painfully bright.And suddenly—She saw flashes.A giant black mountain split open beneath a blood-red moon.Silver wolves kneeling in terror.Massive chains breaking deep underground.Then a voice whispering through darkness:The gate opens again.The vis

Something laughed.The sound slithered up from beneath the castle like living darkness.Low. Ancient. Wrong.Every wolf in the courtyard froze instantly.Not even the storm seemed willing to move.The crack splitting across the frozen courtyard widened violently with a deafening crunch of stone, black darkness yawning beneath it while icy air rushed upward from somewhere deep underground.And then—Another laugh echoed through the fracture.Closer this time.Lyra felt her blood turn cold.Her wolf recoiled violently inside her.Fear.Pure instinctive fear.Whatever was beneath the castle…Even ancient bloodlines feared it.Kael immediately pulled Lyra behind him, dark power exploding around his body in sharp violent waves.“Everyone back.”The command cracked across the courtyard with Alpha dominance strong enough to force several guards stumbling backward instantly.Magnus drew his blade.Lucien’s expression hardened.Cassian looked furious.“You idiots opened the lower chamber.”Mag

Something woke up.The realization slammed across the continent like a nightmare.Deep beneath the northern mountains, ancient darkness stirred violently as the sound of breaking chains echoed again through the kingdom—louder this time.Final.The ground beneath the castle trembled hard enough to throw several guards off balance while cracks spread violently across the courtyard walls.Far below the capital, wolves screamed in terror.Not from battle anymore.From instinct.Every wolf alive could feel it now.Something ancient had awakened.Snow poured harder from the black sky above while distant mountain peaks groaned like living creatures shifting beneath the earth itself.Cassian’s expression had gone completely cold.“We’re out of time.”Kael’s silver-black eyes remained locked on Malachar.The twisted creature stood among broken stone and darkness, black blood dripping slowly from his claws while his unnatural silver eyes gleamed with satisfaction.“You hear it, don’t you?” Mala
