Chapter 42Lyra's POVThe days following the attack felt strangely different.Theron's words kept replaying in my mind. And no matter how I tried to convince him to let me out of my room, he just wouldn't budge.Theron had not mentioned what Coren discovered, and I had stopped asking after the third time he told me there was nothing he was ready to discuss. I knew better than to believe him, especially after seeing the way he and Coren had exchanged looks whenever I entered a room.Something had changed, but I simply didn't know what.I have asked several times whether the rogues who attacked me were already caught, but all I have received was silence so far.I need to find those rogues, whether Theron approved or not. Whatever happened that day triggered something in me, a hidden power, and even a core memory deeply buried within me.And if I wanted to find out what, I needed to find those rogues. I'm sure they must have answers.I continued training every morning, although Theron h

Chapter 44Lyra's POVThe preparations for the bride-selection ball took over Ironveil within days.Every corridor seemed occupied by servants carrying fabrics, flowers, and boxes of jewellery, while visiting noble families began arriving from neighbouring packs. The residence became busier than I had ever seen it, and although I tried to stay away from the preparations, it was impossible to ignore the reason behind them.Theron would soon choose his Luna.The council had decided that the women presented by the allied packs would first participate in a series of capability tests before the final selection. The games were meant to determine more than beauty or family status, and each woman would be judged on her knowledge, combat ability, strategy, archery, and understanding of pack affairs.Sable helped me into a simple blue dress on the morning of the first challenge before we joined the crowd gathered around the eastern field. Several dozen women stood together in the centre whil

Chapter 46Lyra's POV The crowd applauded, interrupting my thoughts.Selene looked radiant as she placed her hand in his, and Theron moved with the same controlled grace I had seen during our own dance.I looked awayI shouldn't have cared.This was exactly what I had told myself I wanted. Theron had a duty to fulfil, and Selene was the woman who had won the selection games.She belonged beside him, and I was only a member of his pack. Yet watching them together hurt more than I wanted to admit."You don't have to watch." Sable's voice was gentle."I'm not." I frowned. "You are." She accused me directly, and I had no idea what to say afterwards."I'm thirsty." I picked up my drink from the table, but she didn't argue.The music continued behind us, and I focused on the conversation taking place around the table until the sound became nothing more than background noise."You're avoiding me." Then a voice came from behind me."I thought you were with the council." I turned and found K

Chapter 48Lyra's POVI made sure to avoid Theron the following morning.After what happened in the woods, I had no desire to see him, and fortunately, he didn't come looking for me. I spent the early hours at the training grounds with Coren and the female warriors, keeping my attention on my exercises and refusing to let my thoughts wander back to the previous night.It wasn't easy because every time I remembered Theron's expression when he saw me with Kael, my irritation returned.He had no right to question me about another man after everything that had happened between us. He had kissed me, admitted that he didn't know what we were, then expected me to explain myself whenever someone else showed me attention.I wasn't going to live like that.By the time training ended, I was exhausted enough to welcome the distraction of breakfast. Sable was waiting for me outside the training grounds, and the moment she saw me, she smiled."You look like you didn't sleep." She frowned. "I di

Chapter 50Renn's POVI woke before dawn with the same uneasy feeling that had followed me for weeks.Sleep had become difficult since Lyra disappeared. Some nights I convinced myself that she had escaped because she was guilty and afraid of facing the consequences.On others, I found myself remembering the way she had looked at me before they took her away. There had been no guilt in her eyes then, only disbelief that I could stand there and allow everyone to condemn her.I had tried not to think about it.That morning, however, something pulled me out of bed before the sun rose over Ashveil.I dressed quickly and left my chambers without disturbing anyone. The castle was still quiet, and I walked towards the western wing where the old administrative offices were kept.Ryker had reopened the investigation into Lyra's escape, and although I had initially avoided getting involved, I could no longer ignore the questions that had begun to surface.If Lyra had truly betrayed us, there sh
