“You’re brooding.”

Yrene appeared in the doorway, already dressed for travel, her short hair slightly wet.

“I’m packing.”

Saeris wrapped the photograph carefully and placed it in her bag. She had a lot to tell her father before she left. Things she had only begun to understand herself. That his mate had not died cowering. That the power her mother had never named, never spoken of, had saved lives. Many lives…and had paid for that with her own. The pack wo

    “You’re brooding.” Yrene appeared in the doorway, already dressed for travel, her short hair slightly wet. “I’m packing.” Saeris wrapped the photograph carefully and placed it in her bag. She had a lot to tell her father before she left. Things she had only begun to understand herself. That his mate had not died cowering. That the power her mother had never named, never spoken of, had saved lives. Many lives…and had paid for that with her own. The pack would never know the full count of what they owed her. “You can do both.” Yrene crossed her arms and leaned against the frame. “Ask what you want to ask.” Saeris straightened. “You reported to Vaelen.” “I did.” No apology in it. No defensiveness either. “The numbers were not in our favour. You knew that. I knew that. Even the Alpha knows it too. They, against Vargbane’s full force, with an Alpha who had been fighting injured and hadn’t told a soul.” A pause. “Alphas.

    Saeris gritted her teeth and shoved the claws from her side. Fuck. Saeris gasped, rolled, pressed her hand hard against the wound, and felt the warm pour of it between her fingers. Her vision swam. The clearing tilted. She locked her jaw against the groan clawing up her throat and found the blade in the frozen earth beside her by feel alone, fingers closing around the hilt while her eyes stayed on the body in front of her. He was no longer breathing. She didn't know what she had done. Didn't wait to find out. She pushed herself upright. Every nerve ending in her side screamed its objection. “This is for my mother, you bastard.” The blade came down. Once. Twice. The third time, his head separated. Saeris picked his head up by the hair, turned to face the clearing, and screamed. The sound cracked across the clearing and the fighting stuttered. It shook t

  • A Deal With The Lycan King   Chapter 067. Reckoning

    Saeris did not drag Gemma gently. She hauled her by the hair through root and thorn, through the cold dark between the trees, and she did not slow when Gemma’s knees hit the ground, did not pause when she screamed, did not flinch at any of it. The blood from the claw marks across Gemma’s face had thickened in the cold air, trailing down her jaw in rivulets of dark red, and Saeris watched it with the detachment of someone who had stopped feeling sorry approximately an hour ago. “You’re going to regret this,” Gemma choked out, fingers scrabbling at Saeris’s wrist. “You have no idea what you’re walking us into.” “Shut up.” “I will kill you—” Saeris yanked. Hard. Gemma’s shriek cut off into a strangled gasp, and the forest swallowed the sound whole. The clearing opened ahead. Wade had done his work cleanly. Flynn’s force fanned across the tree line in a formation that looked, to the uninitiated, like nothing a

    Fucking cold. The chill of the morning clung to Saeris’s skin when she shifted back, immediately reaching to pull on her clothes. Pants first, then her shirt. Wade had been certain she would pass through here. And Wade, for all his loyalty to Flynn, had proven excellent at predicting when the Luna went slinking off into the woods. Saeris fastened the last button, bent to retrieve her boots, and heard the snap of a branch behind her. Right on time. She didn't turn. Not yet. Let Gemma think she had the advantage. Let her believe this encounter was accidental, that Saeris was vulnerable, distracted, unaware. “What are you doing out here?” For once, the bitch wasn’t bedecked in anything meant to distract. Saeris smoothed her sleeve, as though considering the question. “Running. What else would I be doing at dawn?" "Running." Gemma's gaze swept over her, lingering on the shirt Saeris had just butto

  • A Deal With The Lycan King   Chapter 065. Start Over?

    Saeris had spent most of the day at Ianthe’s house. The place still carried the weight of it—her loss. No one spoke of it directly. They didn’t need to. Grief had a way of filling every silence. It was Ianthe’s sister who finally urged Saeris to go home and rest, even when Saeris protested. Despite everything, she made a promise to her friend, a promise both had to keep. Colt remained behind, away from the house but close enough to defend. Saeris had briefly considered sharing what Vaelen had given her. Possibly it might have been something, at least, to break the heaviness settling over everything. But the thought didn’t last. Not with Ianthe still learning how to breathe through the loss of her mate. And not while the men responsible still walked free beneath the same sky. So Saeris kept it to herself. They’ll face the rogues by sunset tomorrow. And no one else knew. Wade was handling Flynn, spinning ju

  • A Deal With The Lycan King   Chapter 064. For The Pack

    Saeris stood with her father and watched the flames climb. Thirty-eight pyres. Flynn stood at the front, speaking words Saeris didn't bother listening to. He looked every inch the Alpha. And still, he couldn't see the rot festering right beside him, dressed in black now, playing the part of grieving Luna. Her eyes were appropriately misty. Her expression perfectly composed. Liar. Traitor. Accomplice to murder. Saeris felt Sirius shift inside her, a low, simmering tension coiling tight as she fought the urge to go for Gemma. ‘I know. But not yet. Save it for when we face her.’ A ripple of resistance brushed against her. Then Sirius stilled, not obedient…only choosing, for now, to wait. Saeris had promised Vaelen three days. One was already gone. That left two to dismantle Gemma's entire plan, expose her mate, save the pack, and get back to Tenebrous before her absence became something V
