Chapter 68:

last update Last Updated: 2025-02-18 02:16:28

I stand in front of the mirror, eyes tracing the reflection before me. My hair, which had been a light blonde, now shows streaks of silver.

It’s not just a few strands, either—it’s most of it. I reach up, running my fingers through the silver locks, a shiver of realization creeping down my spine.

Since last night, since the garden, I’ve felt different. I feel lighter, freer in my own skin.

The ache in my bones that had plagued me for days, is gone, replaced with a sense of energy I didn’t know I still had.

There’s a hum inside me, too, something subtle, something I’ve never experienced before.

It’s like my senses have been heightened, but more than that—there’s something pulling at me.

I try to ignore it, but it’s impossible. A magnetism, a force that tugs me toward him. Toward Caspian.

Before I can think about it more, I hear the door open behind me. Caspian steps inside, his usual calm demeanor apparent, though his eyes flick to me as if sensing something’s different.

    I stand by the window, watching as the sun beats down on the yard. It's a bright, clear day, but the warmth of the sunlight doesn’t seem to do anything for the chill that’s creeping through my bones. The pain is back. It’s not as bad as before, but it’s there—lingering, pulling at my muscles and joints. I clench my fists, trying to ignore it, but it’s no use. It’s like the relief I felt was nothing more than a fleeting high, like a drug that’s now wearing off.I can't explain it. The moonlight on my skin last night... it felt like something I’ve never experienced before. Like it was part of me. It soothed the pain, but now? Now I’m left with the echoes of it, a dull throb that I can’t shake.I don’t want to stay here and stew in it. I need to get out, do something, anything to take my mind off the relentless ache. So I grab my coat and leave the room.I decide to visit Cassidy.She’s been living with Ethan, her mate, in their new home, and I haven’t seen her since the day my fever s

    The moonlight bathes me in its silver glow, the cold grass beneath me a welcome relief after a day spent battling the fire in my bones. The pain had been unbearable earlier, twisting through me like something clawing to get out. But now, under the moon, it’s gone. Just like last time.I sigh, closing my eyes, letting my body sink into the earth. There’s something else now, though—not just relief. A presence. I can’t explain it, can’t hear it at the moment, but I feel it. Like something waiting just beneath my skin, watching me.Footsteps crunch against the grass, and a familiar scent wraps around me before I even open my eyes.“I’ve been looking everywhere for you.”My heart stumbles in my chest.I push myself up, and before I can say a word, strong arms wrap around me, pulling me into the warmest, most comforting embrace I’ve ever known. Caspian buries his face in my hair, breathing me in, holding me so tightly I almost forget how to stand on my own.I melt against him, my finge

    The voice purrs through my mind, rich and dark, curling around me like smoke.And I do.The moment all my legs hit the ground, I fly.The night air whips against my skin but it doesn't make me cold. I think I'm coated with fur. My muscles burn, but not in pain—in power. I feel fast, like I could outrun the wind itself, like the forest is mine to conquer. It’s intoxicating, this freedom."Yes," the voice in my head hums approvingly. "Now we’re talking."I don’t respond, but I feel the way it thrums inside me, amused, satisfied. There’s something electric in its presence, something that crackles and snaps like a barely contained storm.“Delilah!” Caspian’s voice rings out behind me, sharp and desperate. “Stop!”The voice in my head laughs."Oh, sweetheart," it drawls. "He sounds panicked. Our mate doesn’t like when his little human runs, does he?"A thrill rushes through me, but I push it down, shaking my head as I tear through the trees.I can hear others now, closing in.“Rogue!” on

    The enforcers hesitate, their bodies tense, their instincts screaming at them to act. I can smell their uncertainty, hear the quickened pace of their hearts.Caspian stands firm. “Get back to patrolling,” he orders, his voice cold and commanding. “I’ll handle this.”One of them, a broad-shouldered man with a scar down his cheek, hesitates. “Your Highness, she—”“I said I’ll handle it.”That’s all it takes.With reluctant nods, the enforcers bow their heads and retreat into the shadows, but not without throwing cautious glances my way. They don’t understand what just happened. Neither do I.Caspian exhales and turns to me.I don’t move. I can’t move.My body feels alien, my limbs too large, my senses too sharp. Everything is too much. The wind carries scents I’ve never noticed before—damp earth, pine, the lingering musk of the Lycans who had just left. My ears twitch at the smallest rustle in the trees, at the rhythmic beating of Caspian’s heart.I try to speak, but what comes out

    Warmth.That’s the first thing I register when I wake up.The steady rise and fall of a broad chest behind me, the solid weight of an arm draped over my waist, the slow, rhythmic breath ghosting across my hair.Caspian.The realization makes my breath hitch. He’s holding me close. Wrapped around me like he belongs there.I shift slightly, but the second I do, something pulls at me."Stay," a voice purrs, rich with amusement.I go rigid.Oh, hell no.Not him again."Our mate is sound asleep," the voice continues, smooth as silk. "It would be an absolute tragedy to wake him after the chase we put him through last night."I grind my teeth. “We?” I whisper under my breath."Yes, we," he says, like I just asked the dumbest question in existence.I try to move again, but my body won’t. It’s not pain—just a strange resistance, like something inside me is deliberately refusing to let me leave.Oh, for the love of—“I don’t know who you are or what you want,” I murmur sharply, keeping my voice

    How does one handle a temperamental wolf?Take Aries, for example.When he’s not basking in the attention people give me because of him, he’s angry. Not just any kind of anger—an ancient, bone-deep rage that rattles through my very core, burning hot and violent.And when he’s not angry, he’s sad. Depressed, even. Almost suicidal.And now, suddenly, I have to deal with that.I stare out of Caspian’s window, my head resting against the soft pillows. The sky is a dull shade of blue, the kind that promises a slow morning. I want to move, to get up, but there’s a pull in my bones, a heavy weight pressing me down.Aries.He’s feeling lazy.I groan and try to push past it, but it’s like trying to wade through knee-deep water."Aries, I have to go see Cassidy.""You don’t have to see anybody," he drawls. "You are superior now. Let them come to you."I exhale sharply. “I don’t know what time you’re from, but things have changed. This is a modern—”"I don’t care what time it is, what age it is

    “It's just one angry fucker,” I mutter, flopping down onto Caspian’s bed. The words leave my mouth before I can stop them, and I instantly feel the familiar stir of irritation from within me. Aries has been like this all day—angry, unsettled, and downright impossible to handle."You have no idea," he growls in the back of my mind, his presence dark and heavy. "I’m not the problem. You are."I roll my eyes and suppress the urge to snap back at him. Caspian watches me from across the room, clearly amused, his lips quirking up in that half-smile of his. It’s the kind of smile that always makes my heart skip a beat, but right now, it just adds to my irritation.“So, it's quite the character, huh?” Caspian asks, raising an eyebrow as if he’s trying to gauge my reaction.“You have no idea,” I mutter, glancing up at him.“You know,” he says with a slight tilt of his head, “I’ve never met a wolf like yours.”“Yeah, well, I’ve never met a wolf like it either,” I reply dryly, a small laugh e

    I feel it the second I step into the hall—the simmering rage. Aries... I think, and the fury is there, a pulse of heat beneath my skin, an angry storm ready to break.“Did you see the way he talked to us?” he snaps in my head, voice seething with venom. "I told you—this is why I hate Lycans. They think they are better than wolves, just because they’re bigger, stronger. They don’t know their place. They never will. They think that power is all they need. But surprise, motherfucker. I am Aries. I have more power than the council combined. I'm bigger, I'm better. Let them think what they want. I don’t give a shit."His words are sharp, bitter, a jagged edge I can feel down to my core. It’s so strong, so full of contempt, that it almost feels like a physical blow. I brace myself, pressing my palm against the wall as I make my way down the hallway."Calm down," I tell him gently, my voice soft but firm. I can feel his anger, the fire in him, and for the first time, I understand it. I fee

    The scent of blood lingers thick in the air, mixing with the damp earth beneath my boots. The moon barely cuts through the thick canopy of trees, casting long shadows over the fallen bodies. Their lifeless forms lie sprawled across the ground, the fight drained from them. It was over fast—too fast. Three rogues, dead before they even had a chance to scream. It’s not satisfying. It’s just... work.Ethan nudges one of the corpses with his boot, his expression bored. "Well, that was disappointing," he mutters, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "I was hoping they’d at least put up a decent fight. Maybe throw a punch or two. But no, they just flopped over like dead fish. Pathetic."I wipe the blood off my blade, watching as the crimson soaks into the dirt. The forest is quiet now, the only sound the rustle of leaves in the wind. "They weren’t fighters," I say, my voice even. "Just scouts. Testing the borders. Seeing how far they could push before we pushed back."Ethan scoffs, stepping

    The market square is bustling, the air thick with the scent of fresh bread and ripe fruit. I weave through the crowd, my basket swinging at my side, when I see him. Darius. My heart skips a beat, then plummets. He’s standing by the fountain, his dark hair catching the sunlight, his posture relaxed and confident. But it’s not just him. There’s a girl beside him, her laughter ringing out like a bell, too loud, too close. She’s beautiful, with black curls and a smile that seems to stretch too wide. They’re leaning in, heads almost touching, and my chest tightens.I shouldn’t care. We’re not officially mated yet, but we’re fated. He’s mine, and I’m his. So why does it feel like a knife is twisting in my gut?His head snaps up, as if he senses me watching. Our eyes lock, and for a moment, the world narrows to just him. His lips curl into that familiar smirk, the one that makes my stomach flutter even when I know it shouldn’t. He raises a hand, beckoning me over. My feet move before

    The dining hall hums with the clinking of silverware and the low murmur of conversation. The long wooden table is overflowing with roasted meats, steaming vegetables, and goblets of deep red wine that glisten under the flickering chandelier light. The air smells of rosemary and thyme, mingling with the faint metallic tang of the silverware. I move quietly around the table, refilling glasses and serving plates, trying to stay invisible. It’s a skill I’ve perfected over the years—being unseen, unheard. But tonight, my hands tremble, my thoughts a chaotic mess.At the head of the table, Alpha Rowan, my uncle, commands attention effortlessly. His hard golden eyes sweep over the council members as he discusses pack resources, his deep voice cutting through the room like a blade. He’s dressed in his usual dark tunic, the fabric tailored to perfection, the golden crest of Moonhaven embroidered on his chest. He looks every bit the Alpha, every bit the man who holds my fate in his hands.

    I sift through the files in my father’s royal study, the scent of aged parchment and oak filling the air. The fireplace crackles in the corner, casting flickering shadows across the dark walls lined with books of law, history, and the many conquests of Golden Crest. My father’s meticulous handwriting marks the margins of various documents, but one file catches my eye—a thick, yellowed folder labeled 'Moonhaven Case'.I pull it out and flip through the contents, my brow furrowing with every page. Moonhaven. The wolf pack that somehow broke out of Golden Crest’s authority. A lawless land, untouched by the kingdom's rule. And yet, here it is—a case file, an unresolved issue, one that should have been dealt with ten years ago.I clench my jaw. How the hell did my father let this slide?I slam the folder shut and lean back in the chair, my fingers drumming against the polished wood of his desk. This is unacceptable. A pack operating outside of our rule is a direct threat to our sove

    The kitchen is hot, steam rising from the pots on the stove and clinging to my skin like a second layer. My arms ache from carrying the pail of milk, the weight of it pulling at my shoulders. I’m not built for this—not like them. My human body is weak compared to theirs, and the cook never lets me forget it.“Hurry up, girl!” she snaps, her voice sharp as a whip. “You’re slower than a snail in winter. What’s taking you so long?”I bite my tongue, forcing myself not to respond. She’s been scolding me all morning, even though I’ve been on my feet since dawn, scrubbing floors, peeling vegetables, and hauling supplies. Nothing I do is ever enough for her. “I’m sorry,” I mutter, setting the pail down with a thud. My hands are trembling, and I can feel the blisters forming on my palms. “I’ll try to be faster.”“Try?” she scoffs, her hands on her hips. “You should be doing, not trying. Useless, that’s what you are. A human in a wolf’s world. What good are you?”I flinch at her words, but

    Theo’s room smells like him—like rain and something faintly metallic, like the edge of a storm. I’m on my knees, scrubbing at a stubborn stain on the wooden floor, my hands raw and stinging from the soap. The pack house is never clean enough for them, and neither am I. But Theo’s room is different. It’s quieter here, softer. The walls are lined with books, and the bed is always unmade, like he’s just rolled out of it. I don’t mind cleaning this space. It feels like the closest I’ll ever get to being part of something.The door creaks open, and I freeze. He’s here. I don’t look up, not right away. I keep scrubbing, even though my hands are trembling. I can feel his eyes on me, heavy and unreadable. “You don’t always have to do that,” Theo says, his voice low and steady. I finally glance up, and there he is, leaning against the doorframe, his arms crossed. He’s wearing a dark sweater that makes his hair look even lighter, almost golden in the dim light. He sends me a small smi

    The grand hall of the estate is eerily silent, save for the steady click of my father’s polished shoes against the marble floor. He stands in front of me, arms crossed, exuding the usual 'I-am-your-father-and-you-will-listen-to-me' energy. My mother is beside him, a perfectly composed ice sculpture in a designer dress, her sharp grey eyes—our sharp grey eyes—assessing me with the usual judgment."You're in charge while we're gone," my father announces, his voice firm and unyielding, as if he hasn’t already said this a hundred times.I don’t respond immediately, my hands shoved into the pockets of my tailored jacket. Instead, I glance out the tall windows, where the late afternoon sun casts long shadows across the estate grounds. The weight of his words settles over me, heavy and familiar. "I’m aware," I finally say, my tone low and measured.He raises an eyebrow, clearly unimpressed with my lack of enthusiasm. "This isn’t a joke, Caspian. The rogues are becoming bolder. They’re not

    (Before Goldencrest)The scent of pine and damp stone lingers in the air as I scrub the floors of the waiting area in the packhouse, the soapy water cool against my raw, reddened palms. The bristles of the brush scrape against the wooden planks, the repetitive motion soothing in a way that almost lets me forget where I am—what I am.Almost.Boots clunk against the floor, tracking dirt and grime over the freshly scrubbed surface. No one spares me a glance, no one acknowledges the work I do. It’s expected of me, the human among wolves, the weakest link in a pack that prides itself on strength. Even if my mother was once Alpha. Even if my uncle is now the reigning one. None of that matters. I’m nothing but an obligation, a stain they haven’t yet scrubbed away.A shadow falls over me, and before I can look up, the metal bucket beside me clatters to the ground. Water spills across the floor, soaking into my pants, drenching the small space I just finished cleaning."Oops," a voice draw

    The music swells around us, soft yet powerful, the perfect melody for a moment like this. My hand rests in Caspian's, and my other rests lightly on his shoulder as we glide across the ballroom floor. The golden chandeliers overhead bathe us in warm light, making everything shimmer—my silver gown, the golden embroidery on Caspian’s regal suit, the crown atop his head, and the one newly placed upon mine.The ceremony was breathtaking, a moment forever etched in my soul. I was not just Caspian’s mate now—I was his queen, standing beside him in every sense of the word. And now, at the reception, with laughter and celebration all around us, I finally allow myself to breathe, to feel the joy that tonight has brought.Caspian pulls me closer, his breath teasing my ear as he murmurs, “I have half a mind to steal you away from all these people.”I smile, tilting my head up to meet his gaze. “And risk the wrath of Cassidy? She’s spent a week planning this. I don’t think even you, King of Gol
