I blink once, then twice, trying to process what King Sven has just revealed. His mother was a Fae? Does that mean as well as being a werewolf-Lycan hybrid he is also part Fae? If his mother is a Fae, why does he hate our kind so much? Where are his wings? Did he have them cut off? The more I think about it, the more confused I become.

“Don’t overthink it,” he laughs, tracing his finger over the spot where my wings once were.

Can he read minds? I doubt that. But how can he stand so close and f

  • The Fae Serenade.   Chapter 54.

    I stare at Eliana like she has just grown two heads, but I do not say a thing. Not yet.“He is waiting,” she adds. “Let me take you to go meet him.”Still, I say nothing. But the name finally rings a bell. Orion. It’s the same name Isadora had mentioned earlier in her conversation with King Sven. The representative of the Alphas of the South. I know why he wants to meet me; after all, Eliana had mentioned it during our last conversation. He wants to know if King Sven is indeed a Fae.I take a step backward, but my back collides against the wall, stressing my neck. My jaw sets into a hard line. “I am not interested, Eliana,” I say, my voice cold and flat. “I don’t care about your visionary leader from the South. I don’t care about Orion. I have enough monsters to deal with without adding another one to the list. Find someone else to play your games with.”I turn to walk away, but Eliana steps directly into my path, blocking the exit with a strong hold on my shoulder. Her expression is

    The last time I was on my knees right in front of King Sven was the day Carter died.It’s a day that will forever haunt me, branded into my memory as a monument to my own incompetence to show how useless, weak, and incapable I was to save a poor, innocent boy. I was forced to watch as King Sven casually tore his life away. Yet, even as his life snuffed out, Carter had smiled at me. Those wide, terror-stricken eyes had tried to reassure me that he didn’t blame me nor Kyle. Most of all, I remembered the lone tear that had trailed down his cooling cheek.Carter is dead. He gave his final breath to protect me and Kyle, and I refuse to let that sacrifice become a footnote in King Sven’s tyranny. I can’t let Kyle be next.“Please,” I beg, the word cracking around my bandaged throat. Warm tears well over my lashes, spilling hot and fast down my cheeks. “I will do anything. Absolutely anything. Just please, spare his life.”King Sven does not budge. He stands there like a statue carved from w

    “Kyle cannot even kill a cockroach, so what do you mean he killed eleven people?” I yell before I can stop myself.Isadora gives me a long stare, before looking away from me to King Sven. “I have dispatched royal guards to the Shadow moon pack because our people are frenzied at the thought of a rogue Fae being loose,” she tells King Sven, completely brushing me off as though my query deserve no response. “I also gave a kill on sight order.”“No. You cannot do that. He is my brother, and I know him better than anyone in this Kingdom or anyone living, and Kyle would never hurt anyone. Like I said, he cannot even hurt a cockroach,” I plead, desperation seeping through the crack of my voice. I cannot let anything happen to Kyle… he must have been falsely accused. Knowing the hatred the people of Māui, and werewolves in general have for my kind, it’s plausible. “Investigate properly before accusing him. He already has a bounty on his head… he won’t be stupid enough to do that.”“You are ru

    King Sven stiffens for a fraction before breaking the kiss, eyes boring into me as though I have grown an extra head, which I might have because there is no way I just kissed him and I did not even feel the need to pull away.Unlike the first time I kissed him, I did so because I felt like there was a need to comfort him. And I immediately regretted it. Not today though. This kiss feels different. It feels right.“I would not ask why you did that,” he says, calmly.His dark green eyes gradually circled with rings of fiery gold. The last time I saw his eyes like that was also during our first kiss — or peck, in King Sven’s words – and it was because I had compared him with his mother. It makes me wonder what triggers his golden eyes, but I don’t ask. Quite frankly, now isn’t even the right time to. Not when I still want to kiss him, but the look in his eyes confuses me.Does he hate me? Is that why he broke off the kiss? Just the thought makes my heart cry—“You still kiss like you did

    Maggi watches from a distance as the royal physician attends to my swollen ankles, the chains sitting on top of it. The old man wraps them in a bandage, after applying an ointment that stung more than I expected. The same ointment was applied to my neck before being wrapped, now I know I look like someone being choked by a bandage.“No pressure should be exerted on these ankles unless you are keen on losing them, which I am pretty sure you are not,” The man jokes, grey eyes filled with kindness as he stares at me. It’s rare to meet someone who shows me kindness, much less a royal physician. He places my leg gently back on the bed and begins to pack his things. “I should leave now, but I would give you some pain relief medicines and a balm. Your legs should be treated like brittled glass, so I prescribe you apply the balm twice a day. And in the next three days you should be fully healed, same goes with your neck.”“Thank you,” I say, meaning every bit of it. “For attending to someone

    OLIVIA’S POV.King Sven’s eyes remain locked on me. Fear is ever-present in them, surprising me, but now his lips are moving. He is whispering words I can’t hear. I try to read his lips, but it’s useless… then he smiles. The smile is warm and reassuring.For a moment, I forget the agony. I forget that I am in a battle of life and death, bleeding out from my neck. I tune out the roaring crowd. It’s just me, King Sven, and that smile. It's almost as if he believes I can win this losing battle.“Fight…” I mumble to myself, eyes still glued to King Sven. “Fight!”“The least I can grant you is a final speech, so…” Lotus says, snapping me out of my Sven-induced trance. His weight on my back crushes me into the dirt. He is deceptively heavy. “Any last words, my gullible darling?”“No,” I spit, tearing my gaze away from King Sven. But my mind races, wondering what the King tried to tell me right on the brink of death. “None?” Lotus chuckles. “I am trying to be nice so I can make your end pai

    The walk to Maggi quarters is longer than expected, winding through corridors I’ve never been allowed down before. Eventually we stop in front of a huge mahogany door, draped in bones. Literal bones.King Sven doesn’t knock. He just pushes the door open, and the first thing I see makes me freeze.M

    ‘Come and eat meat at Maggi’s Welcome back party! Host: Aunt Maggi.Venue: Maggi’s room.’That's exactly what the invitation letter Maggi had given me says. It even looks like she had it written herself. A sigh leaves my lips as I drop the letter on my chest. I probably won't be attending the par

    My jaw slackens as I stare at the new set of sturdy leather boots and the gown Isadora places on my bed. It's early morning, and I had barely opened my eyes when she barged in, startling me awake. Now, I stand silently, watching her carefully arrange the items.“What are you doing?” I ask once she’

    The sole of my feet aches, pulsing with sharp pain as I try to massage them. But with my fingers still broken and wrapped tightly, the task is nearly impossible. A frustrated groan escapes my lips as I flop back onto the bed, wincing at the stiffness in my spine.It's night already. Hours have pass
