All Chapters of QUEEN OF THE BROKEN TRIAD : Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

CHAPTER 1: Lyra's POV “Drink up, everyone! Tonight, we toast to three years of absolute peace under our Alphas!” A loud cheer echoed through the massive courtyard as Beta Thomas raised his wooden mug high. The annual Alpha Gathering was finally here, and the air was thick with the scent of roasted meat, heavy smoke, and the sharp, pine-and-earth aromas of hundreds of visiting wolves. Massive bonfires roared against the dark night sky, throwing orange light across the faces of allied Alphas, warriors, and elders who had traveled from all over the territory to renew their pacts. I stood just half a step behind the identical, towering shoulders of Ryker and Renn. My chest swelled with a familiar, quiet pride. For three long years, this had been my place. I was the one who managed their chaotic household, the one who organized these massive events, and the one who stood by them when the pack council doubted their young leadership. I loved them with every single piece of my soul, fully

CHAPTER 3: Lyra's POV“Get inside, traitor, and don't make a sound.”The heavy iron door slammed shut behind me with a loud, metallic screech that vibrated right through my bones. I tumbled forward, the rough silver chains around my wrists dragging against the damp stone floor. I had spent my entire life believing this underground cell was reserved for dangerous criminals and murderous rogues. I never once imagined it would hold someone born inside the pack, let alone someone who had bled and worked for it for three years.I curled up on the frozen stone floor that first night, staring up at the single slit of moonlight cutting through the masonry near the high ceiling.“Ryker will realize this is wrong,” I whispered into the darkness, my voice trembling. “Renn won't let them keep me here. Someone will come get me by morning.”But morning came, and the light shifted, and nobody came.By the third day, the heavy iron bolts on the door finally slid back. I pushed myself up against the w

CHAPTER 5: Lyra's POV“Don't jump out of your bed, girl, you are entirely safe here.”I bolted upright, a sharp gasp tearing from my throat as my palms slammed against crisp, clean sheets. My whole body throbbed with an intense, burning agony. The deep slashes from the rogue wolves across my ribs felt like fire, and the older, raw cuts from the leather cane across my back stung fiercely against the soft mattress. I looked around wildly, realizing this definitely was not my dark, damp prison cell.“Where am I?” I demanded, my voice cracking as I pulled the thick blanket tight against my chest. “Who are you?”A woman with short black hair sat on a wooden chair right near the door. She held a bowl of clean water and a fresh roll of white bandages in her lap.“You are in the Ironveil pack hospital room,” she said, her voice completely calm as she set the bowl down. “My name is Sable. Our border scouts brought you in last night after you collapsed in the dirt. Alpha Theron ordered me to pa

Chapter 7Theron's POVA loud noise echoed through my room as a firm knock landed on my bedroom door.Three sharp knocks, one pause, then another.Coren!He's for sure the only one brave enough to risk his life to disturbing my sleep. I opened my eyes immediately, and the sky beyond the tall windows was still pitch black, the first hint of dawn nowhere in sight."Enter." I finally spoke. The heavy wooden door swung inward, revealing my Beta standing in full battle attire. His expression was as stern as ever, but the tightly rolled parchment in his hand told me this wasn't a routine report."A messenger arrived from the northern mountains. He insisted this reach only you." Coren said quietly, walking toward my desk.I sat upright and accepted the scroll.The seal pressed into the dark wax made my expression harden instantly, and a crescent moon enclosed within a circle.The Seer….Without another word, I broke the seal and unrolled the parchment.“Come alone… The moon has spoken agai
