Claimed by the Fallen King
Lucas must have known we’d expect them to attack today.
Yet there are nowhere near enough werewolves here to take on the full brunt of the royal guard.
I make myself look at the fallen faces. My people. Werewolves, like me.
No matter that they came to attack me, I cannot help feeling as though I have failed them. Because I have.
Now they’re dead, and I’ll never get another chance to save them.
As we approach the main palace doors, every rebel able to walk filing out in front of us, I glance over my shoulder to take in the sheer number of lives lost today. I cannot allow myself to forget the cost of this war, this feud, this struggle for power.
