Chapter 83: The Script - Run Through Walls

Kyllian took a threatening step toward him.

"Alpha, please! Please, pull yourself together."

Instead of calming down, Kyllian turned to the wall again with that same wild fury in his eyes, the cracked surface of the plaster mocking him. His muscles coiled as if possessed, every vein in his arm straining with the weight of his rage and grief. The wall was an easy target—it didn’t talk back, didn’t bleed emotions, didn’t remind him of her scent on his skin.

But before he could strike again, Talon lunged.

With more courage than sense, the Beta wrapped his arms around the Alpha from behind, locking his fingers together and using every ounce of muscle and desperation he could summon.

"You’re not doing this again!" Talon grunted, sweat already pouring down his face. "Your hand looks like a raw steak!"

But Kyllian wasn’t having it. The fury thrumming through his veins made him forget that the man clinging to his back was his best friend and not some rogue assassin. He roared—a sound that didn’t belong to anything human—and with a single swing of his arm, he broke free. In one fluid, brutal movement, he hurled Talon across the room.

Talon hit the wall with a dull thud, a grunt escaping his lips as the breath whooshed out of him. He slumped, momentarily stunned, one leg awkwardly splayed and his shoulder making a suspicious pop sound.

That was the moment it hit Kyllian.

"Oh gods..." he gasped, his eyes widening as the beast inside him retreated in horror. "Talon!" fr.e ewe.bno.vel .com

He rushed forward, dropping to his knees beside the Beta. His hands trembled as he reached out, afraid to touch, afraid to cause more harm. His blood-smeared knuckles hovered near Talon’s shoulder as though they were cursed.

"Hey... hey... I’m sorry. I’m so sorry...I—I didn’t mean to. I swear. I had no control—"

"Alpha..." Talon wheezed, waving one shaky hand in the air as if trying to bat away both the apology and the dizziness.

"No, listen, I didn’t see you. I was just— I—" Kyllian rambled.

"Alpha!" Talon barked louder this time, grabbing Kyllian by the shoulder, dragging him back into focus.

"Yeah?" Kyllian blinked, startled.

"I don’t think the bond is broken!"

There was a beat of silence. An echo of Talon’s words seemed to bounce off the very walls.

"What do you mean?" Kyllian asked.

Talon sat up gingerly, wincing as he rotated his sore shoulder. "I mean, yes, you feel hurt. Obviously. You’ve just attempted to rejoin your fist with solid stone. But this magnitude of pain and rage?" He gestured toward the destroyed wall, the puddles of blood, and the general aura of apocalyptic energy still hanging in the air. "That doesn’t happen when a bond is broken. This is soul-level chaos."

Kyllian opened his mouth, but no words came. He just stared at his friend.

Talon kept going, unbothered. "So whatever the vampire prince did—and I say this with no bias against vampires, it clearly didn’t work. The bond’s still intact."

Kyllian sank back on his heels, suddenly lightheaded. His heart thudded in his chest with hope.

Did this mean Luna was still his? Still tethered to him? Did this mean she wasn’t slipping away into Damien’s arms permanently?

But then—what did it mean for her?

"Does that mean..." he began slowly, piecing the thought together. "Does that mean she’s still in danger?"

Talon hesitated. "It’s possible. Or it might mean whatever Prince Bloodsucker did is only temporary."

Kyllian ran a hand through his hair, which was now soaked with sweat and sticking up in odd places. "So she’s still bound to me... but Damien’s already marked her."

Kyllian was spiraling, the storm returning to his eyes. "What do I do with this, Talon? What does this even mean for her? For us? For—"

Talon could see the wheels turning in Kyllian’s head, and that was never a good sign. Not when the Alpha had that glazed stare that meant he was spiraling.

And Talon knew him well enough to know one thing for certain: Kyllian wasn’t planning on breaking the bond.

"Alpha, don’t even think about it," he said cautiously, stepping into Kyllian’s peripheral.

"Think about what?" Kyllian replied sharply, turning his back to him and facing the wall again, which had become something of a confidant. "You don’t know what I’m thinking."

Talon folded his arms, unimpressed. "Please. I always know what you’re thinking."

"I cannot, Talon. I don’t want to," Kyllian finally muttered, the words scraped raw from somewhere deep in his chest.

And there it was—the truth, bare and bitter.

"You have to," Talon said gently.

Kyllian shook his head once, stiffly. "You don’t understand," he said. "What I feel for the princess is beyond a bond, Talon. I loved her before I even knew there was one."

Talon sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose. "And I do understand. That’s why this is going to destroy you if you don’t fix it. Alpha, please... this could drive you mad. It could make your wolf feral. You know this. These things aren’t just emotional—they’re primal. Biological. I shouldn’t even be the one lecturing you about this! You’re the one with all the fancy Alpha training."

"I can handle it," Kyllian said, but there wasn’t much conviction behind the words.

"Alpha!"

"Enough, Talon!" Kyllian snarled, and the room suddenly felt smaller.

"I can’t let you do this," Talon said after a moment.

Kyllian’s eyes flicked to his with the cold weight of command. "If you know what’s good for you, you will not breathe a word about this to anyone. Is that understood?"

Talon nodded once, stiffly. It wasn’t convincing. Not even a little. It was the kind of nod people gave when they were already planning to do exactly the opposite but needed a few more hours to figure out how not to get murdered for it. fr\eewebno vel .c(o)m

He watched as Kyllian turned back toward the broken wall, the very image of a tormented lover from some cursed ballad. His fists were still red with blood, his posture locked between agony and pride.
