Lusia

Present day.

I was lost in his words. The narration had been worse than I thought it would be. I couldn't believe that someone like King Dane would be stuck in a situation like that. Maybe he was just saying that to get sympathy from me. What if he was manipulating me to believe him? That was another angle. I couldn’t let him ruin me. Not again.

But he had confessed to killing my parents. I didn’t know how to react to it. He had confessed indirectly, but he had said it was done. He had also seen me that night. He had been that terrifying silhouette that had fled the living room when I came in. That was ten years ago. I wondered how young he was then. He didn’t look like his age at all. His jet-black hair and his olive skin made him look so much younger. And his icy blue eyes weren’t as cold as they normally were. That was something I noticed all night long.

“So. There you have it,” he said, running his fingers through his tousled hair.

I was speechless throughout the night

    LusiaI opened my eyes slowly letting out a yawn. I stretched my body across the bed and was surprised at how soft it was. There was an intense light coming from behind me which bathed the room and the bed I laid on. It was much warmer than it was supposed to be. I didn’t hear the sound of birds chirping, which was strange as well. Where did all the birds go? I turned to the other side of the bed lazily, and what I saw next frightened me. It was King Dane. He was sitting on an armchair which was beside a huge fireplace. He had his legs crossed and he was glaring at me. My heart was thumping hard against my chest as my eyes met his.He was dressed in a purple checked shirt with a pair of black pants. His tousled jet-black hair was combed neatly. His icy blue eyes were filled with rage as he watched me. His well-chiseled chin looked like they could cut through diamonds. He was gorgeous. “Your Highness,” I greeted softly. “Why are you still asleep?” He asked. I gulped hard as I hear

    Lusia Agatha? That name was familiar. She was the maid that led me to the first gate last night. How could she be dead? There was no doubt that she knew that she was leading me into a trap. I had seen the fear in her eyes right from the moment I opened my door. I did not doubt that she had been forced to do that. But back then, I thought it was just the usual fear of going against the king. I didn’t know that she was being threatened. And now, she was dead. I was scared. It could have been me too. I could have been torn to shreds after being molested. King Dane had saved me. It was sad that Agatha had to go through that fate. I didn’t see her after I was almost knocked out by the werewolves. It seemed one of them had gotten to her before she escaped. “Her body was found this morning,” the guard continued. “I mean, what remained of her body.”My stomach churned and I felt a wave of nausea hit me. The thought of Agatha’s body being torn to shreds was enough to make me feel that way

    LusiaI watched as King Dane walked away, his broad shoulders stiff with restrained fury. The heavy doors shut behind him, leaving me alone with my brother. I hated that he had to leave, but it was better I confronted Finn alone. The last thing I wanted was for Finn to get battered by King Dane. He was walking on a thin rope each time he came here and it looked like his luck was running out. I didn’t know how much longer I could protect him from King Dane. I was surprised that King Dane listened to me. I thought he would object and whisper in my ear how he was going to punish me for interrupting him. But instead, he kept a cool head and walked out of the room. Maybe he was serious about the words he had spoken last night. He promised that he wasn’t going to let anybody hurt me. Not even my blood brother, Finn Slater.He was everything I feared in this world, and for good reason. He had been my tormentor since childhood, the one person who had stripped me of my self-worth time and tim

    Dane The moment Kiara approached me, her voice smooth with practiced charm, I knew something was off. Her delicate fingers grazed my forearm as she leaned in, her scent laced with something faintly floral but overwhelmingly calculated. She was always calculated.“You seem tense, Dane,” she purred, tilting her head just enough for her hair to cascade over one shoulder.I wasn’t interested in her games. I never had been. My lip curled in disgust as I looked at her. “What do you want, Kiara?”Her eyes glittered, displaying innocence. I was irked by this. “I’m just passing by,” she replied. “I hear Finn Slater is here again. I wonder what you are going to do to stop him from coming here,” she replied, tapping her lips and staring at the ceiling like she was thinking hard. I clenched my jaw, suppressing the snarl threatening to escape. “Cut the act. I don’t know why you are here. But I do know that you were involved in something. You were involved in the attack last night. Weren’t you

    LusiaThe first thing I noticed when I woke up was warmth. Not the uncomfortable, feverish kind that had plagued me earlier but something softer, soothing. A heavy, rich scent of cedar and something uniquely King Dane lingered around me, wrapping around my senses before I even opened my eyes. The room was dimly lit, the soft glow of the crackling fire in the massive fireplace casting long shadows against the towering bookshelves that lined the walls. I shifted slightly on the couch, feeling the weight of a thick blanket draped over me. I wasn’t alone.A chair scraped against the floor, the sound subtle yet firm, and before I could fully register what was happening, King Dane was beside me. My heart skipped a beat as I stared at him. His tousled jet-black hair was neatly combed and his icy blue eyes were staring at me. There were beads of sweat gathered on his forehead, and his brows were slightly furrowed as he looked down at me. He was gorgeous even though the thin lines appearing o

    Lusia I went to bed with a storm of emotions churning inside me, my mind replaying King Dane’s words over and over. The warmth he had shown, the way he had taken care of me, only to turn cold the moment I asked why—it left me confused, unsettled. I lay awake for what felt like hours, staring at the ceiling, before exhaustion finally pulled me under.I didn’t sleep for long.A tap. Then another. I groaned, rolling onto my side, hoping whoever it was would go away. But the tapping only became more insistent. It wasn’t a polite knock—it was rhythmic, precise, and unrelenting.“Wake up.”The deep, commanding voice jolted me upright. My sleepy eyes adjusted to the dim light. The room was still bathed in darkness, the moon barely beginning to retreat beyond the horizon. It was twilight. The only thing that made me aware of this was the distant sound of the birds chirping, and their wings flapping as they made their way into the purple sky. “Your Highness?” I called sleepily, rubbing my

    Lusia Four days had passed since that night in the bath, and in those four days, I had ceased to exist. Or at least, the version of me that once held onto fleeting hopes and the warmth of stolen moments.King Dane had ensured it.From the moment I opened my eyes each morning, my body was forced through relentless training. The soreness in my muscles never had a chance to fade before I was being pushed again—faster, harder, longer. My body ached constantly, but I never complained. I had learned quickly that complaints meant nothing to him. He gave no mercy, no soft words, no acknowledgment of my pain.But it wasn’t just the training.Everywhere he went, I was expected to follow. He never left me behind, never let me out of his sight. Even when he traveled beyond the pack’s borders, I was brought along—only to be confined within a room, waiting in silence until he was finished with his business. There were no stolen glances, no shared moments of quiet understanding. Just his orders. An

    LusiaI stepped further into the room, my bare feet brushing against the smooth tile, every movement slow, hesitant. The air was thick with something unspoken, an unnamed tension crackling between us like the air before a storm. King Dane stood just ahead of me, his broad shoulders stiff, his presence magnetic.Then, she appeared.Kiara stepped out of the walk-in closet, a chocolate cake delicately balanced in her hands, her brown eyes alight with something unreadable. She was wearing nothing but sheer black lingerie, the lace barely concealing the curves of her body, as if she had been waiting—planning—for this exact moment.A sharp sting lanced through my chest, and my breath caught in my throat. I felt like an intruder, an unwelcome guest in a moment that was never meant for me. Was it foolish of me to think Dane and I shared something real? Had he even found the time to reconcile with his fiancée?I was confused by the drama that unfolded before me. What was Kiara doing there? She

    DaneThe room was quiet now that the woman left. I was staring down at Lusia who looked so pale. She was breathing which was okay to me. She was alive. That was what mattered most. But I was worried. Not only by that but by the words that the healer had told me just before she left the room. Lusia had a wolf. Her wolf was buried deep inside her. It was locked up. I never thought that someone like her would have a wolf. She looked so weak and fragile. But that wasn’t her fault. Somehow, her wolf spirit had been sealed which prevented her from the many perks of being a wolf. She couldn't heal fast, and she couldn’t shapeshift. She was almost human but for the werewolf blood flowing in her veins. I felt a knot tie in my stomach. It was sad for her. She had been through so much. I wondered if she knew about this. Of course, she did. Why wouldn’t she? I wanted to be close to her. I wanted to hold her and make her feel that she wasn’t alone. But I couldn't. I couldn’t show her how much I

    DaneThe scream tore through the dungeon, sharp and desperate, bouncing off the cold, stone walls like a wounded animal’s cry. I hadn’t expected it. No, not from him. Keon had been a proud man when I first came into his cell. He was someone who thought of himself as strong. Now, he was nothing but a shaking mess of fear, his back pressed against the wall as if he could disappear into the cold, stony wall. For a moment, I simply stared, surprised. Then a slow, amused chuckle slipped past my lips.He was trembling so hard I could see the shudders racking his body. His hands clutched the rusted chains at his sides, fingers digging into the metal as if they could anchor him. His chest rose and fell in quick, uneven breaths, his eyes darting between me and the cell door as if expecting me to charge in and finish what I had started.I took a step closer, dragging my fingers along the iron bars, letting the sound scrape through the silence. His breathing hitched. I stopped in front of the d

    DaneI was heading towards the last cell which was Finn’s. He was the last person I wanted to see. Finn Slater had come into my castle without my permission and threatened his sister, Lusia. Harming her in the process as well. If there was any of them who deserved the worst punishment it would be him. I was angry that he had still returned no matter how many times I had forgiven his behavior towards Lusia and me. The only reason he was still standing here was because of her. He was alive because Lusia wanted it. No matter how much she hated him, she didn’t want him dead. And I couldn't understand why. Someone like him didn’t deserve to be alive. His audacity and bravery were just a facade. Deep down, I know that he was terrified of me. And I could see that as I stood before his cell now. Finn stood inside, his back pressed so hard against the far wall that it seemed he was trying to melt into it. His royal robes, which looked amazing when he first arrived here, were torn and filthy,

    DaneI crouched to Kiara’s level, watching her shudder as my presence towered over her. The cell was dimly lit, the torchlight casting shadows that danced against her pale, trembling face. Her breath hitched, and for the first time since she had been thrown in here, she truly looked at me. Not just with defiance, not just with hatred—but with fear.Good.Then she screamed.“I will let everyone know!” Her voice cracked, raw from her previous outbursts. “They’ll know the truth! That you—” she gasped, chest heaving, “—killed Luisa’s parents! That you kept her locked away in your castle, refusing to let her leave despite being told by the council!”Her words echoed through the cold, damp space. And then I laughed.A deep, unhinged sound that filled every inch of the dungeon. It rumbled through the stone walls, making the torches flicker as if even the flames feared me.Kiara flinched.“You think,” I chuckled darkly, shaking my head, “that I care?” I leaned in closer, lowering my voice to

    DaneIt was my fault. I was late. I had been held up. That was why I couldn't be there in time. I would have stopped that fool from touching her. I would have made him pay for laying his hand on her skin. He still would. They were all locked up. Lusia was barely breathing.Her body was a ruin of blood and torn flesh, her skin marred with fresh welts and deep bruises that made my vision blur with rage. She was too light in my arms, too still. Every shallow breath she took felt like a battle she was losing, and I refused—refused—to let her lose it.Her blood still coated my hands. I could see it every time I flexed my fingers, feeling the warmth of it seared into my skin like a brand. No matter how much I wanted to stay by her side, to watch over her as she fought to recover, I had unfinished business.I stormed through the hallways of the castle, my grip firm but careful, her head cradled against my chest. My coat swallowed her fragile frame, but it wasn’t enough. Nothing was enough.

    Lusia Koen’s fingers ghosted over my skin, slow and possessive, as if he had all the time in the world. My body was betraying me, writhing against the cold floor, my muscles locked in a feverish heat I couldn’t control. I wanted to claw at my skin, to rid myself of this cursed reaction, but I was trapped—trapped inside my own body, trapped with him.I tried to move away from him, but I couldn't. I was still bound. I was helpless as I lay on the wooden floor. I was irritated with the way he touched me, but my body accepted his touch because it was familiar. And also because it wanted to be satisfied. The feeling of disgust and lust drowned me. I was lost on what to do. There was no escape for me. I was trapped. “I’ve missed this,” he murmured, his voice low and satisfied.A shudder wracked through me, bile rising in my throat. I waited for him to take over me. I had no other choice. King Dane wasn’t coming. I had waited for too long. I had bought him all the time in the world, but it

    LusiaMy entire body locked up the moment Finn stretched his arms lazily, his expression one of boredom. He was losing interest. That should have been a good thing. But I knew better.“Well,” he said, rolling his shoulders, his voice thick with amusement, “I think that’s enough for me.”Enough for him. What the hell did he mean by that? Was this some kind of game to him? It seemed so. My stomach turned violently. He was using me for his amusement. As always. That wasn’t a surprise. He still hadn’t changed a bit. I hated him Finn never left unfinished business unless he had someone else willing to finish it for him. Dread pooled in my gut, thick and suffocating, as Kiara exchanged a look with him, silent understanding passing between them.They were leaving. And they were leaving me here. With him.That was the last thing I wanted. It was the one thing I dreaded most. Leaving me here with Koen. He was going to come at me. I was certain that he wanted me. I turned my head slightly, jus

    LusiaThe moment Kiara brought me down on my knees to the wooden floor, I barely had time to catch my breath before Finn made his move. I watched him tentatively, waiting to see what his next move was going to be. Was he going to torture me the same way Kiara did? I didn’t think so. Maybe he had something else special in his mind. He rose from King Dane’s armchair, his movements slow and calculated, the kind of arrogance that made my stomach twist with anger. His boots clicked against the floor as he approached, each step echoing like a countdown to something terrible.I tried not to flinch, tried not to show how much my cheek burned from Kiara’s slap, but my body betrayed me. My breath came fast, my ribs expanding and contracting in shallow, uneven bursts. I was still kneeling from where Kiara had dragged me, my body aching from the force of it.Finn stood over me now, looking down as if I were some insignificant thing. His lips curled in disgust.“Stupid girl,” he muttered before p

    LusiaI could hear the sounds of laughter and muffled conversations as I struggled to get a hold of reality. I was slowly coming back to consciousness but it was taking longer than I expected. I could feel my head pounding hard as I slowly opened my eyes. The light in the room almost blinded me and I was forced to shut them up immediately. I groaned as I tried to move my body but I couldn’t. “Look who’s finally awake,” I heard a familiar voice say. It was Kiara’s. There was no doubt about it. I opened my eyes slowly again, adapting to the light in the room. When I did, I looked around my surroundings. Before me sat my brother, Finn, in King Dane’s chair. I was surprised at the audacity he had. Coming in here and acting like he owned the place on multiple occasions was embarrassing. I never thought that defending my brother up to this point would make him disgrace himself like this. If King Dane caught him, he would be dead. There was no doubt about that. Standing by the chair was
