Zephyrine
The tension in the throne chamber is suffocating, and I know blood might spill if care is not taken.

Lycannar is a warlord. Nyroth is nothing but an Alpha. To even compare them is an insult. Gently, I reach for Lycannar’s palm and place mine on it, anchoring him back to me.
He stares directly into Nyroth’s eyes, holding his gaze to make a statement, and after a long moment, Nyroth sets his jaw, lowers his gaze, and whispers an apology to the maid.
“I apologize to you.”
Silence falls again after that. At last, Lycannar pushes away from the table and walks toward the window, speaking over his shoulder.
“Get out of my kingdom. Both of you.”
Nyroth rises, casting a glance at me before leaving in silence.
Kaela follows without a word. I sigh once their presence is gone and rise to turn toward where Lycannar
stands.
“He is so possessive. You had better calm him, or he’ll kill again,” Princess Serena whispers near me, and I swallow.
Quietly, I walk over to him, resting my palm on his shoulder.
“Lycan?” He doesn’t respond at first, staring into empty space. I watch his eyes dim slightly, the color shifting. Then he turns to me and pulls me into a gentle hug, his face buried into my hair. It feels like he’s trying to calm himself through me.
Slowly, he pulls back to caress my face, sighing softly.
“Lycan…” I call again, panic tightening my chest, because I know he saw something in Nyroth’s eyes. “Lycannar…”
“I will kill him,” he declares abruptly, as if it’s a casual truth. As he always does. “I’ll strangle him without breaking a sweat, Zephyrine. If he dares stare at you again, I’ll pluck his eyes out. I swear it.”
A chill runs through me. Before I can speak, he bypasses me and walks back to the table, leaving me frozen by the window.
Outside, I see Nyroth climbing into his carriage, never once looking at Kaela as she does the same. They
ride out.
For a while, I only stare. Lycannar can be calm for a time, but eventually, he will go berserk. I know he will. Lowering my gaze, I exhale shakily.
It is only a matter of time. Even I cannot tame him.
When I turn back, he is seated at the table again. The room is silent, everyone waiting for him to cool down,

Dessyn has already left the table, the maid too, and both are speaking quietly with Princess Serena at the side. I sigh and approach them.
Dessyn quickly walks up to me.
“Zephyr. Are you okay?”
I don’t answer, only squeeze her hand briefly before turning to Princess Serena.
“I will leave now. Please, send my regards to Princess Mearez.”
