The problem with running morning drills in the main yard is that I can’t un-hear things.
“Again!” I shout. “Shields up, feet apart. If my fist can fit between your boots, so can an enemy blade.”
Groans. Shuffling. The clatter of wood on wood as they reset.
Tarek mutters something rude under his breath. I smile, pleasantly, and smack his shield hard enough to rattle his teeth.
“Use your legs, pup,” I say. “Or I’ll borrow them.” The line adjusts. It’s better, but still not

AlexeiThe hall has never been this quiet during my time here.Kieran stands in the center of it. No throne. No raised dais. Just him on the flagstones, a few paces from the foot of the high table. Behind him is one empty chair, and behind that chair is me.My hands are loose at my sides. My stance says, relaxed. My wolf says, let me kill something

KieranThe morning of the trial dawns grey and sharp.No dramatic storm. No symbolic sunburst. Just flat, colorless light leaking over the courtyard stones, like the sky is holding its breath with the rest of us.Marcus meets me outside the stairwell to the cells.“Alpha,” he says.

KieranI wake up sore and smug.The soreness I expected. My shoulders ache when I try to stretch them. My wrists protest when I flex my fingers. There’s a deep, satisfying heaviness in my muscles, the kind I usually only get from a day of drills or a week of anxiety.The smugness is new.I lie there for a moment, eyes still closed, taking inventory.

A Different Kind of Alpha: Blood Oath Chapter 84 – Held Down
AlexeiBy the time darkness settles over the keep, my body is tired.Training went well. Better than well. Shields up, feet where they should be, fewer idiots exposing their throats for no reason.
