Rhaenyra X Reader Novels & Stories

he said and the rest of the people gathered in the hall echoed the words right after. Chills traveled down my spine and I struggled to maintain my composure. Kyan smiled at me and the urge to scream at him welled up inside of me, but for some reason, I couldn't. "Tonight, Raelynn Hills, is bonded to her chosen mate, Kyan..." Again, I zoned out and every sound faded until everything was muted. I was gradually sinking into a state of blankness. In my desperation, I reached out to pieces of my memories. Rai's amber eyes flashed in my mind and tears welled up my eyes as the image began to blur.

Stephen said with a nod, before Rael dismissed him. As Stephen walked out, Ronir, the high priestess, entered immediately after him. Her presence made the elders stop talking at once. She wore a flowing red gown with a shawl draped over her head, casting a shadow over her features. When she reached the center of the hall, she fell to her knees and bowed before the Alpha. Rael’s gaze fixed on her. “Do you bring news?” he asked, leaning slightly to the side as he waited for her reply. Ronir lifted her head slightly, her eyes trembling with dread. She hesitated, lips parting as though she could not bring herself to say the words. Her lips opened and closed, but in the end, she said nothing.

The shift in the air, a heaviness in my chest, they all made sense. The crowd parted like the sea itself bowed to him as he walked towards the forefront and stood. Alpha Ryker Blackthorn. Tall, powerfully built. Dressed in pitch-black leathers that fit like they were tailored to wrap around death itself. His hair was midnight-dark, tousled like he hadn’t slept in days, and his eyes, gods, those eyes were carved from winter. No warmth, no flicker of curiosity, just ice and piercing. He was beautiful, sinfully handsome.

"Tell me every detail, driver. Do not leave out a single drop of blood." Kaelen is still holding Lyra’s hand against the low cabinet, his thumb tracing the soft skin of her knuckles like he is playing with a piece of silk. He keeps his head low, his long black hair falling over his face, but I see his dark eyelashes jump the second Terry mentions a shared enemy. His grip on her fingers goes completely still.

Rayna screamed in fear, closing her eyes and covering her ears. The tray filled with food, cakes, and drinks was thrown straight to the floor by Darius. Rayna opened her eyes, trying to look at Darius bravely as his anger returned in full force. “Darling … truly, I have absolutely no relationship with Reagan. Believe me. The only alpha, the only man I love is you alone,” Rayna said honestly. But Darius did not believe her words. He still assumed that Rayna and Reagan were involved in a forbidden relationship.

Funny, he was actually right. I was a hybrid of Epicyon Haydeni and human. I chuckled. It was dark already. The moon was full, and so were my mating senses. Yet Aurelia didn’t come to my mind. Lyanna did. I loved the sound of her name in my mind. Lyanna. As much as I hated that Paul man, I loved him for saying her name. Lyanna. Lyanna Darkhowl. It had a nice ring to it. No. Aurelia Everwyn Darkhowl. The tiny voice reminded me.

I hear a loud gulp coming from his throat as he hungrily gawks down on me. I look down and see my shirt is open wide, only covering my hard nipples, leaving my wet cleavage on display. I immediately close the shirt, feeling too much exposed. I hear a low growl. Ryan’s hand grips my neck forcefully, I feel myself standing on the tip of my toes as he lifts me up from my neck. "Ra- Ry-an." He lowers his head to my level, I see his eyes have gold in them. Gold burning in fire. His eyes give a distinct bipolar look, like he can’t decide if he wants to rape me or punch my face.

I was gone, letting the darkness swallow me whole. I knew I would come back. Just as I had gotten used to death, I was used to life as well and I could feel her holding my hand and pulling me out of the darkness. I didn't want her to, I wanted to remain in this darkness forever but of course, I didn't really have much of a choice. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Raven leaning by the wall with her hands folded, looking towards a certain direction. I turned to the direction in which she was looking at and my eyes opened wide when I saw alpha Urian pouncing hard on my dad.

This is the only choice. Chaos was pacing with me. His claws scraped the back of my mind. My beast didn’t just want her blood, he wanted her light, even if it was going to end in regret for the both of us. I stopped in front of the floor to ceiling window, running a hand through my hair. Soft knocking on my door interrupted my thoughts. The door pushed open and her expensive perfume filled the room. Mira. “Ryan?” She whispered, her steps advancing towards me. Her hand falls on my shoulder, and I finally face her. Her eyes are puffy, but the tears are gone.

“Easy for you to say. You’re mated to him.” Lyra’s jaw tightened. “Yes. I am.” A ripple of shock moved through the crowd, not because it was new information, but because hearing her say it aloud, boldly and without shame, seemed to hit harder. Lyra lifted her chin. “I’m mated to Kaelan because I love him. Because I chose him. And because he chose me.” Ronan scoffed. “Love doesn’t win wars.” “No,” Lyra said, her voice firm. “But unity does.”
