ERIC

I've been Tom's friend for years, since long before the Rookeries and the resistance and all of it. That friendship is one of the few things I've had that felt solid and real.

The other thing I had was money, and now I don't have that anymore.

The battle took everything. My income, my savings, whatever fragile sense of financial security I'd managed to build. I'm surviving on community charity now, on handouts, on the particular kind of quiet pity that people give you when they feel bad for

  • Alpha VS Omega' Twin VS Twin (A Dark Werewolf Romance)   The Dragon's Bill

    POV: Callum | Rookeries operational buildingThe message from Vermithrax Consolidated arrives on a Monday—of course it does. That's the day financial institutions tend to send communications they've been holding over the weekend. It has the same quality as all Vermithrax communications: precise language that leaves no room for interpretation.Five years of monthly payments of fifty thousand pounds each. That's two hundred and fifty thousand pounds paid, an accurate count I've maintained because inaccuracy in debt records creates problems that accurate records avoid.The message doesn't discuss the payments I've made. It discusses the remaining balance.Outstanding balance: £250,000. Payment required in full. Deadline: thirty days from receipt of this notice.I read it three times—the number of readings required for information you don't want to be true to finally sink in. I read it a fourth time just to confirm that the third reading was accurate.Two hundred and fifty thousand pounds

  • Alpha VS Omega' Twin VS Twin (A Dark Werewolf Romance)    Mother's Legacy

    POV: Lucia | Rookeries operational building, eveningThe locket rests in my palm, the photograph inside showing a face I've never met but somehow recognize. She has my eyes—that's what Papa said first, and I'm still processing it. The eyes in the photograph, the ones I see in mirrors when I'm not avoiding them, are the same. The same particular darkness, the same specific shape around them.Papa tells me about Valentina the way he tells me things that matter—without the managed parts, just the honest truth. The telling takes time, and I receive it the way I receive important things—completely, without interrupting. Interrupting something important before it's finished gives you an incomplete version, and I don't want that.He tells me about her fight against Parliament. How she fought as a dhampir running from hunters, as a full vampire organizing resistance, as someone who understood what the system was doing to her community and decided that understanding required responding. He tel

  • Alpha VS Omega' Twin VS Twin (A Dark Werewolf Romance)   Valentina's Memory

    POV: Callum | Parliament steps, then RookeriesFive years.The Parliament steps on the anniversary have a certain weight to them, the kind that places take on when they've witnessed something you carry with you. To everyone else, they're just stone steps under the midday sun. To me, they're something else entirely. The steps haven't changed, but I have.I come every year. Not because I decide to each time, but because I made a promise to myself in the first year after, and some promises you keep because keeping them is the only way to honor what was lost. It's an acknowledgment that Valentina existed, that she was here, and that both those things matter enough to mark.Dante comes with me. That started in the second year, when we both showed up on the same morning, discovering we'd independently arrived at the same ritual. We've been coming together ever since.The flowers are always white—Dante's choice. I've never asked why, and he's never explained. That silence between us has beco

  • Alpha VS Omega' Twin VS Twin (A Dark Werewolf Romance)   Lucia's Education

    POV: Lucia | The Sanctuary and Rookeries operational buildingMy education in what I am has been a series of discoveries, most of them accidental, each one another piece in a puzzle I'm only beginning to understand.The vampire speed manifested when I was five, trying to reach a jar on a high shelf before Ash could stop me. One moment I was on the floor, the next my hand was on the jar—before the thought had even finished forming. The surprise made me knock it to the floor, where it shattered, which is how Ash found out.The werewolf strength came a week earlier, when a stuck drawer in the operational building came completely off in my hands, handle and all. The sound brought Papa running from the next room, his expression shifting from concern to something else entirely when he saw what I'd done.Daywalking I've had since birth—the most documented of my abilities, the one Parliament monitors most closely. Papa explained it as a dhampir quality both my parents possessed, the one piece

  • Alpha VS Omega' Twin VS Twin (A Dark Werewolf Romance)   Finn's Training

    POV: Finn | East End, True Pack training grounds, then privateMy schedule has a structure I understand better now than when it started. It's the structure of someone being prepared for something rather than just being educated like regular kids are. The understanding came gradually, from the inside, not because anyone told me directly. That's how most important understandings arrive.Mornings are school—the ordinary kind that Papa and Moira insisted on. It's at a school in the East End with human children who don't know what I am. It's the specific ordinary part of a schedule that's not otherwise ordinary. School is my favorite part because there, I'm just a seven-year-old who's good at reading and has strong opinions about lunch. My supernatural nature isn't something I have to manage there.Afternoons are combat training, which started three months ago at my request. It has exactly the quality I expected it to have—the quality of something my body understands more than my mind does

  • Alpha VS Omega' Twin VS Twin (A Dark Werewolf Romance)   More Children

    POV: Isla | The Sanctuary, RookeriesTwenty-four children.I didn't plan for twenty-four. I planned for fifteen—the number that arrived from Fell's facilities five years ago. Everything about the sanctuary has been organized around that number: the staffing, the space, the supply network, the specific rhythm of a care environment that's calibrated itself to a particular group of people with a particular set of needs.Eight new children arrived from Manchester four days ago, and now everything's off. The calibration is wrong in all the ways calibration gets wrong when the number it was built for changes significantly and quickly. I'm in the process of rebuilding it—which is work I know how to do after doing this for so long—but knowing doesn't stop it from being exhausting.The sanctuary is now three buildings, an expansion that happened faster than physical expansion usually does. The truce produced something I didn't fully anticipate—volunteers who were previously affiliated with onl
