51: The Setback

LyraI woke up smiling.It happened before my eyes even opened, before I became aware of my surroundings.Then I reached across the bed and found the space beside me empty. I opened my eyes immediately, my heart lurching.I rolled onto my side, my skin tingling with the memory of his touch under the full moon. My hand brushed against a folded piece of paper resting on his pillow. I pulled it close, my eyes tracing the elegant script.Had to leave for an early morning council briefing that I couldn’t avoid. Eat breakfast and get some rest, sweetheart. I will see you soon.— R.A ridiculous smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I clutched the note to my chest. Then I looked around his room.Or maybe our room?No, definitely not our room.But…maybe one day.The thought snuck into my mind so naturally that I froze.Maybe one day, I’d wake up beside him in his room at the packhouse every morning. Maybe one day I’d leave little notes for him too or we’d argue over who got more space on

52: Shut Up, Egret

Lyra“You did the right thing, Lyra,” Egret’s voice purred smugly inside my head. “You turned away from the trap.”I slammed the door of our suite shut behind me and pressed my back against the wood, my hands flying up to massage my temples as an ache began to bloom in my head.My chest was heaving.“You need to calm down,” Egret said.“Shut up!” I screamed aloud into the empty room, my voice cracking. “Just shut up! Leave me alone!”I made my way across the room and caught my reflection in the mirror—wild-eyed, terrified, looking every bit as unhinged as I felt.“Shut up!” I yelled again.“Lyra, I know you're scared.”I covered my ears despite knowing it was pointless.“Stop talking.” I broke down in a sob. “I’m losing my goddamn mind.”A knock sounded at the door and it opened before I could respond.Raguel walked inside.The moment he saw me, he stopped and his expression immediately shifted from concern to alarm. His eyes darted around the room, then landed back on me.“Who are yo

53: Get On The Bed

Lyra“Get on the bed,” Raguel commanded as soon as we stumbled into my room.I shimmied out of my dress and slid onto the bed. I wiggled close to the center, getting comfortable as I heard the rustle of fabric from Raguel taking off his pants.The bed dipped as he climbed on. My breath hitched as he began to crawl towards me, chucking off his shirt.His body hovered above me and he leaned down to kiss me softly this time. His mouth made its way down to my neck, nipping, grazing and sucking as he went down to my collarbone.I arched up and unfastened the hook of my bra, flinging across the room carelessly.A growl escaped his lips when I bared my breasts to him. “Fuck…these tits, Lyra.” He took them in his hands and began to knead roughly.“Perfect,” he groaned, and then his mouth was on my breast, sucking my nipple. I cried out, my back arching off the bed once again as his teeth scraped against the sensitive flesh. His other hand began to roll my other nipple between his fingers, pin

54: Greedy Girl

Lyra He pulled me up so my back was pressed against his chest, causing his dick to slip from between my thighs with a wet sound. I looked up at him and caught a faint smirk playing on his lips. He lifted a hand, tracing the line of my jaw, his thumb brushing over my lower lip. “I want you to taste yourself on my lips,” he whispered, the words barely audible in the silent room, sending a jolt of heat through my exhausted body. I nodded immediately. His smirk widened. “Greedy girl,” he rumbled before lowering his head and capturing my mouth in a demanding kiss. His lips crushed mine, and I parted them instantly, inviting him in. His tongue swept into my mouth, and I tasted it immediately. I could taste the salty tang of his cum and the musky sweetness of my own pussy, all mixed into one unique flavor. I moaned into his mouth, my hand fisting in his hair, holding him to me. The sticky mess between my thighs seemed to pulse with renewed heat, and I felt another wave of wetness coat my

55: You Won't Regret Trusting Him

LyraI woke up exhausted.Not the miserable kind of exhausted but the good kind.Every muscle ached with exhaustion.I pulled the heavy duvet up to my chin, letting out a soft breath as the memories of the previous night flooded back in an intoxicating rush. The hot, passionate sex, and then the moment his fangs had sunk into the skin of my neck. I reached up, my fingers lightly brushing the smooth, white mark on my collarbone. It didn’t sting anymore; instead, it pulsed beneath my fingers.Heat immediately flooded my cheeks and I buried my face in the pillow.Oh god.“This is embarrassing.” I muttered to myself. The fact that I was smiling made it a thousand times worse. I had absolutely no business feeling giddy after the emotional rollercoaster I’d put both of us through.Yet here I was, smiling like an idiot.I rolled over instinctively, my eyes taking in the empty space beside me. Raguel was already gone, his side of the bed neatly smoothed down. But unlike the previous morning,

56: We Should Leave Her Alone

RaguelThere was something deeply irritating about sitting through an Alpha summit after the night I’d had.I was physically present.Mentally?I was upstairs wondering if Lyra had eaten breakfast.It was pathetic.I sat at the head of the conference table while the remaining alphas sat around me. Omar, unfortunately, looked particularly energetic and that alone was suspicious.He adjusted his heavy signet ring before folding his hands together and smiling. “I’d like to raise an issue.”Wonderful.I resisted the urge to roll my eyes at him. Instead, I leaned back in my seat. “By all means.”He looked around the room before his gaze came back on me. “I think we should discuss what happened yesterday.”My expression remained neutral but on the inside, however, I was boiling.“What about it?”“With all due respect, King Raguel…” His tone was mocking but I let it slide. “The scene was a disgrace to our entire lineage. The girl screamed and ran off.”He shrugged.“I propose to the council

57: Protect Her

RaguelChaos erupted and the room went completely upside down in a heartbeat.One second, the summit dinner was full of conversation and laughter. The next, tables were overturning, people screaming, chairs scraping violently against the marble floor as the rogues lunged in every direction.As King, I didn’t have the luxury of fear. I didn’t have the luxury of hiding either. I stood my ground at the table, though every instinct screamed that the odds were violently stacked against us.My eyes immediately found Lyra. She’d frozen beside Habeela, her eyes wide with shock.Good.In this case, shock was better than panic. Panic got people killed.“Emily!”My beta’s head snapped toward me immediately.“Take Lyra and get her somewhere safe now!”“Raguel, your powers are bound…I cannot leave you alone!”“That’s an order, Emily!” I snapped, slamming my shoulder into an oncoming rogue. “Get her to safety! Now!”She bit her lip, her eyes flashing with desperate frustration, but she obeyed.I di

58: I'm Not Leaving Him

Lyra“Lyra, move!”Emily grabbed my hand, her fingers digging into my skin around my wrist as she pulled me forward. “Come with me. Now.”I resisted immediately. “No.”“We have to get you out of here, Lyra.”“I’m not leaving him.”I looked over my shoulder.Raguel was trapped halfway through a shift. He was fighting like a man possessed but he was slower than he had been on the night I was attacked at the packhouse. It looked like he was losing the battle.“Emily…” I tried to pull away from her grip. “We can’t leave him! Emily, let me go!”“And disobey the order of my Alpha? No!” Emily yelled. Her face was covered with sweat as she practically dragged me toward the hidden exit. “He ordered me to get you out! If you die, you know what dies with you? Our entire lineage!”We were only a few steps from the doors when someone lunged at us.Before Emily could even react, a rogue grabbed her and threw her across the room. A choked gasp left my lips as her body collided against the wall with

59: Did She Just Command an Alpha?

LyraI walked to where Omar stood with sweat pouring down his temples as he desperately tried to fight against whatever I’d done.For a second, the room was quiet. Nobody even dared to breathe. Then, low, frantic murmurs broke out.“Did she just…did she just command an alpha?”“Don’t be ridiculous. That’s impossible“She just did!”“A human female commanding an alpha??”“How did she do that?”Down on the floor, Raguel didn’t waste any time.He took advantage of the distraction and pushed himself up, wincing and groaning. The blade was still buried in his chest, but his hands shot forward and grabbed Omar by the throat before the mayor could even break free from my mental hold.Raguel lifted him off his feet. Omar’s legs kicked wildly in the air, the silver dagger dropping from his hands and clattering against the floor.“You should have made sure I was dead, Omar,” Raguel rasped. “You attacked my people, my mate. You betrayed everyone in this room.”Omar clawed at his arm.With a twis

60:

LyraThe tension in the council room was so thick it felt like I was suffocating. All the pack alphas sat stiffly around the long oak conference table, their eyes fixed on Raguel, who sat at the head of the table with his hands clasped in front of him. I sat right beside him, feeling like a fish out of water.The silence stretched for a while. Finally, one of the Alphas—whose name I learned was Maximus—cleared his throat.“The news report regarding the car accident was a wise diplomatic move, Alpha Raguel,” Maximus said quietly. “But within these walls, we must address the reality of what occurred at the Summit. You executed Omar on the spot. What you should have done was to render him weak and then bring him before the court so we could hold a formal trial and punish him according to our laws.”Raguel simply tilted his head towards the speaker. “Which court, Maximus? The same court that watched a troop of rogues attack us?”Maximus shifted uncomfortably, looking down at his hands. “T
