Cold harsh winds howled across the snow-covered fields outside the castle, carrying the scent of pine and the cold damp earth. The night sky stretched endlessly above them, moonlight glinting off the frost-laden ground like a thousand shards of glass.

The council stood in a wide arc at the edge of the clearing—the seven chieftains and a handful of guards—all silent, their breaths visible in the frigid air. They had gathered not just as spectators of what was about to come, but as witnesses to a

  • Alpha Orion   NINETY TWO

    That evening, Rey walked towards her brother's room in the cabin; her steps were slow as she fisted the hem of her shirt. She chewed harder on her bottom lip the closer she got to the door, but even that did nothing to quell the nervousness that threatened to eat her alive.She hadn't seen her brother since the day she'd pulled him off their father's dead body, right before Orion died in her arms.She'd been so drowned in the grief of losing him that she hadn't thought of Beau, not even once.She remembered the lack of emotion in his eyes, almost like something had died in him. She should have been with him; she should have never left his side.Was she a bad sister?The answer to that question terrified her more than she'd like to admit.She came to a stop in front of the wooden door that separated her from her brother, and with trembling hands, she knocked before pushing the door open.She found him sitting in the window nook, staring out into the dense forest. It didn't seem like he

  • Alpha Orion   NINETY ONE

    News of Alpha Orion's victory had spread throughout the North, but no one but the Lycans gathered in Clan Seven knew of his death, and Orion wanted to keep it that way.He walked into the room where Aleksandr, Caspian, Vega, a couple of warriors and the remaining five members of his council were waiting.He'd been with Rey for hours, unwilling to leave her side after they completed the mate bond, but he had to put things in order; he had to thank the very people who helped him win this war.He leaned on the cane the healer had provided to help him move around, but somehow, the pain had receded significantly since he'd been with Reylin.They rose as soon as he approached, and he frowned, his fingers tightening around the handle of his cane."Please, sit," he urged them, pulling out a vacant chair and taking a seat himself. The chieftains obeyed, their eyes fixed on him as if afraid he might disappear if they so much as blinked."I am alive," Orion said, his voice steady, carrying to ev

  • Alpha Orion   NINETY

    Rey woke to stillness.Not the brittle, watchful quiet she had learnt to sleep through over the years, but something softer and warmer. The slow rise and fall of a chest beneath her palm and the steady rhythm of breathing that did not expect danger at dawn.Orion was fast asleep beside her, and the realization of it alone felt unreal.He lay on his back, one arm flung above his head, dark hair loosened from its usual restraint. In sleep, the lines of command and fury eased from his face, leaving behind the man beneath the Alpha. Young, vulnerable and almost unbearably human.She shifted carefully, lifting herself onto one elbow so she could look at him without waking him. The furs were tangled around his waist, his bare chest exposed to the pale morning light slipping through the narrow window.Her gaze traced familiar planes—broad shoulders, the hard lines of muscle earned through battle and burden, then it caught on the scars.Two small, puckered marks on his chest from the bullet w

    Rey melted into the kiss, her lips parting under his. It felt like a lifetime ago since she felt his warmth against her, and the taste of him ignited something deep within her.She pressed closer, her fingers threading through his hair, pulling him nearer as if afraid, he'd vanish again. The kiss grew hungrier, their tongues brushing in fervent strokes, breaths mingling in hot abandon, and she felt a spark of life return to her limbs, chasing away the numbness of grief.Orion broke the kiss only to trail his mouth along her jaw and down her neck, savouring the way she shivered."It feels like a lifetime since I've held you,' he said softly, his voice coaxing as he nuzzled her skin.He guided her back toward the bed, their hands exploring tentatively at first, his over her shoulders, hers tracing the contours of his ripped abdomen and the sinewy lines of his arms. They sank onto the mattress together, their bodies aligning naturally.As they settled, Rey felt the heat building between

  • Alpha Orion   EIGHTY EIGHT

    Orion gasped as bright white light blinded him, and the meadow dissolved into nothingness. His body fell through cold air, weightless and suspended between consciousness and the world he had left behind.Then, with a jarring thud, he woke to warmth.Not the sharp bite of snow or the ache of cold seeping into his bones, but heat, steady and enveloping, wrapped around him like a second skin. His breath shuddered as consciousness returned, pain blooming slowly across his chest and ribs.Fur brushed against his bare arms.He blinked slowly, his eyes adjusting to dim golden light overhead, and found himself lying on a wide bed he didn’t recognise. Heavy furs were draped over him, rich and impossibly soft, the kind reserved for royalty. The air smelt of herbs, smoke, and something faintly floral.He frowned.This wasn’t the afterlife, and it certainly wasn’t where he had fallen.Orion tried to move and hissed sharply as pain tore through him. His hand flew instinctively to his chest, finger

  • Alpha Orion   EIGHTY SEVEN

    Orion opened his eyes slowly, blinking back the darkness curling around the edge of his sight. The darkness gradually cleared and the world around him came into focus.Around him, there was nothing but an endless abyss. Black stretched infinitely in every direction, swallowing sound, time, and sense. And yet, in the center of that void, a figure hovered before him, radiant, serene and untouched by the darkness around them.It was the goddess, Selene and somehow, the most innate part of him recognised his maker.“Where am I?" He asked hesitantly, the sound of his voice echoing back.The last thing he remembered was the look in Reylin's eyes before he slipped into nothingness.Was this life after death?He'd never really wondered where he would go after he breathed his last, but he was sure it wouldn't be good and he'd come to terms with the fact that he deserved it.Her gaze fell upon him, calm and unreadable, yet there was an unspoken weight in her eyes.“You're stuck somewhere betwee
