All Chapters of Lyra, His Second Chance Mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Kane's POVAs dawn broke, Kane slipped quietly from Lyra’s room, careful not to disturb her rest. Her breathing had steadied through the night, though she remained in a deep, healing sleep. Kane’s heart softened at the sight of her, but he knew he couldn’t afford to linger - there were answers he needed to find, and Regina’s lies to unravel.He headed down the hallway, his footsteps falling silent on the cold stone floor, each step a reminder of the grim task ahead. He would root out every trace of the darkness that had infected this pack, ensuring that no one would ever threaten Lyra again. As he approached the office of Alpha Caden, he signaled to Thorne, who had been waiting outside, ready for whatever came next.“Thorne,” Kane said, nodding to his commander, “I’ll need you to accompany me. We’re going to investigate the records and interview any witnesses who can shed light on what’s been happening here.”Thorne gave a short nod, his eyes hardening with determination. “Understood,

The dawn was just breaking over the Blackstone Pack’s grounds, casting long shadows across the assembled crowd in the courtyard. The elders of the Lycan Council, each draped in ceremonial robes that bore the insignia of their rank, stood alongside King Alaric. The Lycan King’s presence alone cast an aura of solemn authority, his silver gaze steely and unyielding. Kane stood by his father’s side, his own expression unreadable yet tense, his protective stance making it clear that his support lay with Lyra.Lyra, standing beside Kane, felt the eyes of every pack member trained upon her. She glanced at Kane, who gave her a reassuring nod, his gaze steady and unwavering. But her heart raced; she was no longer hiding in the shadows. Her time had come to tell her story.As murmurs rose through the crowd, King Alaric raised his hand, silencing them with a single, commanding motion. “Today, we are here to investigate the actions of Alpha Caden and Luna Regina, who stand accused of cruelty, abu

Seraphine POV Seraphine stormed out of the hall, her heart pounding furiously. The truth that had come to light was incomprehensible, tearing her world apart. She couldn’t bear the whispers, the astonished looks, and worst of all - the humiliating truth about her own bloodline.Caden wasn’t her father.She ducked into the shadows, finding refuge in a hidden alcove at the side of the pack house. Her breath came in shallow gasps as she clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms. A moment later, Aiden joined her, his own face as pale and stunned as hers.“They lied to us,” she spat, her voice barely a whisper but full of venom. “All this time...”Aiden’s jaw clenched as he absorbed the truth. “Our entire lives, we’ve been living a lie. They claimed we were the rightful heirs, born of a powerful line. And now, this... we’re not even Alpha Caden’s children. We’re... nothing.”Seraphine’s eyes flared, a dangerous light kindling within them. “No, Aiden. We are not nothing. We have

Lyra POVThe moon hung heavy in the sky, casting a silver glow over the landscape as Kane guided Lyra through the quiet forest just beyond the pack grounds. The soft crunch of leaves underfoot and the fresh scent of pine seemed to soothe the air around them, creating a rare, delicate sense of peace. For Lyra, this tranquility felt new, almost unsettling in its gentleness. She glanced sideways at Kane, his presence beside her solid and steady, an anchor in the dark wilderness.Kane stopped at a small clearing illuminated by moonlight, a place hidden from the world but alive with the sounds of the forest. He gestured for her to sit, and they settled together on a fallen log, facing the soft rippling of a nearby stream. For a moment, neither of them spoke, letting the night air settle around them like a comforting blanket.“This forest…” Lyra whispered, her voice barely carrying above the sound of the stream. “I used to dream of running here as a child. But after everything that happened

Lyra's POVAs the first light of morning filtered through her window, Lyra blinked awake, stretching beneath the soft sheets and savoring the warmth of the bed. For a brief moment, she felt that gentle peace she was starting to know, a calmness that filled her with an unfamiliar sense of hope. Just as she was gathering herself to start the day, she heard a soft knock at her door.“It’s open,” she called softly, still somewhat cautious but knowing who to expect.Kane stepped inside, his face bright with an energy that surprised her. “Good morning, Lyra.” He smiled. “Did you sleep well?”She nodded, her fingers fidgeting slightly under the weight of his gaze. “I... Yes, better than I have in a long time.”“Good.” His smile grew warmer. “I wanted to talk to you about something,” he said, leaning against the door frame. “Starting today, I thought it might be time to teach you a few things. Self-defense, combat basics. I know it might feel like a lot, but I promise, I’ll go easy at first.”
