Claimed and Sold at the Lycan King's Ball Don’t let go
CHAPTER 84 AVA’S POVThe northern balcony in my chambers overlooked a frozen stretch of the sea, where blocks of ice collided in slow motion like clumsy, white giants trying to dance. Down on the lower docks, a group of off-duty vanguard warriors were currently engaged in a serious competition: trying to see who could throw a snowball far enough to hit a sleeping walrus on an ice floe. The walrus simply let out a loud, snort each time a ball landed short, entirely unbothered by the fearsome military.I watched them from behind the railing, but the small amusement didn't touch the cold ache behind my ribs, the herbs from Madame Lira dulled the fever. The snow fell in fat, lazy flakes, dusting the shoulders of my winter cloak. Nearby, a tray of hot berry cakes and spiced tea sat completely untouched, the steam dying out in the freezing mountain air.The palace is beautiful, I thought, leaning my forehead against the stone. So why do I feel like a prisoner trapped inside it?The rumor
Claimed and Sold at the Lycan King's Ball The Gentle Sister
CHAPTER 83 AVA’S POVMadame Lira was already standing beside my bed when the gray light of morning finally forced its way through the curtains. There was no grand arrival, no bustling of apprentices or clattering of glass vials. The air in the royal bedchamber was thick with the scent of old dust and cold pine ash, the silence so absolute that the shallow rattle of my own breathing felt entirely too loud.The Seer didn't use the standard, glowing hum of healing magic. Instead, she leaned over me, her sightless, eyes trained directly on my face as her cold, fingertips pressed firmly against the center of my forehead. She slid her hand down to my wrist, tracing the erratic skip of my pulse beneath the skin.A low prayer in a language that made my wolf instinctively shrink back into the dark slipped from her lips.Reaching into the folds of her robes, Lira pulled out a small, coarse linen pouch filled with dried, pungent leaves. She set it gently on the small table beside my pillow. “T

CHAPTER 82DRAKEN’S POVThe maps on my table blurred as I rubbed the bridge of my nose, Fenris drawing bored lines with his claws behind my ribs. Thorne stood opposite me, his fingers turning a security report over and over, his face hardened into his usual unreadable grimness.The door slammed violently against the stone wall.A vanguard warrior burst into the room, his breath coming in ragged gasps, his armor splattered with fresh slush. “Your Majesty!” he choked out, dropping to one knee before the table. “The Luna... she bypassed the northern checkpoint. She has left the palace grounds alone on foot.”I was already moving before the warrior could finish the sentence. The chair crashed backward behind me as I vaulted over the table with a flash. Fenris let out a feral, bloodthirsty roar in my mind, his possessive territorial instincts ripping through my focus until my vision tinged with deep gold.Thorne didn't ask questions. He grabbed his heavy sword from the rack and fell into
Claimed and Sold at the Lycan King's Ball When the Wolf Breaks
CHAPTER 81 AVA’S POVI sat by the window of my private sitting room, my fingers tracing the cold glass, staring at the fog rolling over the northern battlements. I wasn't in bed anymore, despite the healers' protests. The confinement was driving me mad. Maya moved quietly through the room, adjusting a vase of fresh winter orchids on the mantelpiece, her scent anxious and protective.The oak doors were slightly open to let in the heat from the corridor hearth. That was how I heard them.Two young palace maids stopped just outside the threshold, their footsteps halting, their voices dropping into rapid clicks. They thought the crackle of the wood covered their words. They forgot my Southern ears could track a rabbit through thick brush.“They say the Luna rejected the King,” the first one whispered, the words dropping like a metal into the silence. “They say she won't let him touch her.”The second one chimed in immediately, her tone slick with fear and excitement. “They say the Moon

CHAPTER 80 DRAKEN’S POVThe high stone pillars of the Grand Audience Hall offered no warmth against the morning chill. I sat on the throne, my posture impassive, listening to a low-ranking lord from the western valley drone on about territory border adjustments. On the surface, the room was as structured and orderly as any other morning. Beneath all the noise the air felt thick. Heavy.I didn't shift my position, but my eyes drifted across the crowded hall. The high nobles weren't focused on the petitioner. They stood in small, tight clusters, their shoulders hunched, lips moving in rapid motion. Every time my gaze swerved toward a specific group, the murmurs vanished instantly. They replaced their whispers with bows and sudden interest in the stone floor.Deep behind my ribs, Fenris gave a vicious rumble. Something is wrong.My jaw clenched. The western lord finished his speech, bowed low, and retreated into the crowd. Before the herald could announce the next name, a visiting lord

CHAPTER 79MORGANA’S POVThe doors of the Ladies' Council Chamber swung open to a room stripped of its usual social vanity. Today was not an afternoon for tea or petty gossip; it was the monthly administrative council, an assembly designed to maintain the fragile infrastructure of the Northern territories. As noblewomen representing the highest houses, our agenda was dense and demanding. We were here to review the grain supplies for the orphan houses across the frozen sectors, authorize the distribution of winter relief to the widows of fallen warriors, and approve immediate funds for midwives before the spring births began.Furthermore, we needed to oversee the repairs to the village shrines shattered during the Blood Oath attack and assign noblewomen to manage upcoming charitable visits. These were the unglamorous, heavy duties traditionally handled by the Luna.I arrived first, settling into my high-backed chair, my fingers tracing the cushions. Elena followed shortly after, her ex

CHAPTER 4The court of vultures. AVA'S POV.Two days had passed since I almost stabbed him with that silver letter opener. The King’s suite felt like a cage. Draken hadn’t touched me since that night. He slept in the armchair by the window, eyes open every time I woke up, gone by the time I preten

CHAPTER 3 AVA'S POV As we walked down the dim hallway of the Royal wing, the shadow at the far end finally stepped out into the light. It was a man. And he looked terrifyingly similar to Draken. He possessed the same towering frame and broad, built shoulders. But his features were softer, framed

CHAPTER 2 AVA'S POV He sunk his fang deep down my neck and the mark was set. A wave of pain crashed through me as the bond took hold, and my knees felt weak. When he finally pulled back, the weight of the situation settled in. "I don’t want this," I gasped, tears slipping down my cheeks. "I don’t
