Chapter 191 Aire pushed open the door to her chambers with a tired soft sigh, as she stretched her arms, and couldn’t wait to sit so she would stretch her feet. However, the moment she walked in, something felt wrong immediately. She couldn’t explain it. It felt like she was
Chapter 190 Relief flooded her features. The tension she’d carried immediately loosened. Her arms tightened around him. Torak inhaled deeply. Her scent surrounded him, and it felt like home. For the first time in days, he felt genuinely calm. “I missed you.” Adele swallowed. “I missed you too.” The words
Chapter 189 The eastern territories were gone. Torak still couldn’t quite process it. One week had passed since Aire’s warning, and she had been right. The memory remained painfully vivid. Torak stood before the large window in King Elijah’s study. The evening sun spilled across polished floors and the shelves
Chapter 188 Mitchell didn’t bother knocking. She had come directly to Beta Kole’s estate today. She doesn’t want to negotiate anymore. The door slammed against the wall hard enough that both occupants looked up. She wasn’t coming here to beg anymore. The scent of old wood and burning candles filled
Chapter 187 A knock resounded softly on Mabel’s door shortly after dusk. Mabel already knew it would not be her father. Her father knocked differently, and the scent that greeted her nose wasn’t his. Mabel set her book aside. “Come in.” She permitted. The door opened immediately. The human king
Chapter 186 The room felt smaller than it should have. Alpha Rowanfall sat across from Alpha Ashmere, staring at him like he had suddenly begun speaking another language. They had stayed here as guests for two days now, and when he demanded they leave. Ashmere wasn’t buying the idea. The
Chapter 185 Aire shrugged. “Why not?” Beta Rhys nearly choked. “Your Grace.” He called police, yet firmly. As if to warn her about what she just said. “It grows back.” Marsali looked delighted. Eventually Beta Rhys let it be. Marsali carefully trimmed one tiny section, then stared at it proudly.
Chapter 184 Hours later, Aire finally returned to the castle. Her entire body ached from people, and the hatred from earlier still clung to her skin somehow. She could still hear them, their snarls and curses. The Moon Goddess rejected her. She’s cursed. Aire climbed the final staircase slowly. The
Chapter 183 <ABDHY89UUTGBJQ4VA> My redeem code for 10 fast past each for 10 readers. …… The crowd remained silent after the wolf was dragged away. Aire watched the man disappear into the sea of soldiers. The hatred remained, but nobody spoke, or moved again. Xanden opened the carriage door again.
Chapter 182 Dawn had barely broken across the kingdom when Aire entered the war room again. She’d hadn’t slept a wink. The chamber remained crowded despite the hour. Maps covered nearly every available surface, as the plan had already commenced. Reports arrived constantly, of the current state of the borders.
Chapter 181 Jennifer Mckern, you are so much appreciated. ❤️ ….. It landed warm against Torak’s chest. Torak felt them immediately. His entire body tightened. “Adele…” She made a small frustrated sound before shoving weakly against him. “I hate this,” she whispered shakily. Torak loosened his hold enough for her
Chapter 180 The question slammed into the room violently. Adele froze completely. Shock crossed her face first, then horror, and then humiliation. Her entire body stiffened instantly afterward. Torak regretted asking the moment he saw her expression. Gods. He should not have ruined this moment but once he saw the
Chapter 179 The hidden chamber remained painfully quiet after Adele nodded. Torak still stood near the far wall with his face turned slightly away from her. He physically could not bear seeing what he had done to her expression. Adele remained near the hidden doorway. The hood covered part of
Chapter 178 He gestured sharply toward her clothing. “And where exactly were you planning to go dressed like this?” Adele folded both arms tightly across herself. “From Tabitha,” she answered instead. Torak frowned faintly. “My clothes,” she clarified flatly. “I got them from Tabitha.” Torak exhaled once slowly. “Now,” Adele
Chapter 177 It was well past midnight when the council meeting finally ended. The atmosphere inside the King’s private council chamber had remained tense for hours. Maps still covered nearly every surface with red markings stretched across eastern territories where evacuation routes had already been planned carefully before sunrise. War
Chapter 176 Mabel’s gaze lingered on the human king long after the conversation softened again. The candlelight reflected faintly across the sharp lines of his face while servants moved quietly around the dining hall. She noticed how he did not speak like men preparing for war. Rather, he spoke like
Chapter 175 Rain still lingered over the Ashmere territory by the time Mabel and Alpha Rowanfall arrived. It was not storming anymore, but it remained steady enough to darken stone pathways, silver the gardens, and leave the air smelling cold and clean beneath the moonlight. Even the guards stationed near
Chapter 174 Aire walked inside the council room first after dinner with the three Alphas behind her. Her steps slowed slightly the moment she noticed Torak already standing near the center table. He looked up immediately, and for one brief second, the entire room quieted strangely. Torak stared at her
Chapter 173 Mabel Rowanfall stood quietly. Her return had unsettled the pack. She could smell it. They were all wondering why she returned. Mabel walked calmly through the corridor anyway with one gloved hand resting lightly against the dark fabric of her dress. The Rowanfall estate remained exactly as she
Chapter 172 Finally, Alaric looked away briefly before answering quietly. “I couldn’t control myself around you anymore.” He inhaled deeply. “I was jealous you mated first with Nate. I still am.” The room went still. Aire blinked faintly. Alaric laughed once under his breath, but no amusement touched it. “There.”
