MOIRA

The cottage is cold. Always cold in Scottish Highlands. Even with fire burning, drafts find every crack.

I wrap another blanket around Finn. Eight months old. Born wolf. Perfect dark hair. Eyes like his father's.

His father who abandoned us.

Cormac Brennan. Alpha of London's Brennan pack. My lover for three years before his father died.

Before everything changed.

The Scottish pack I'm staying with barely tolerates me. Unwed mother. Pregnant by London wolf. Brought shame to their tradition

    ISLADawn is three hours away. The medical station is as prepared as it's going to be.Twenty cots. Surgical supplies. Antibiotics. Pain medications. Dr. Wickham's healing poultices. Everything I could scrape together or steal or accept from suspicious sources.It won't be enough. Not even close. But it's what I have.I check equipment one more time. Sterilized instruments. Organized supplies. Evacuation routes marked in case the station gets overrun.Preparing to save lives while knowing most will die anyway."Isla?" Marian appears in the doorway. Eight months pregnant. Pale. Sweating."What's wrong?""Contractions. Started an hour ago. They're getting closer." She grips the doorframe. "I think the baby's coming."No. Not now. Not three hours before battle."How far apart are the contractions?""Seven minutes. Maybe less.""Fuck." I guide her to a cot. "You're going into early labor. Stress-induced probably. The tension, the fear, the proximity of violence.""Can you stop it?""Maybe

    PROFESSOR CORNELIUS FELLI approach the Rookeries at midnight. Six hours before the scheduled extermination.My disguise is perfect. Simple traveling clothes. Battered medical bag. Concerned expression. I look like sympathetic scholar, not Hermetic Order mage planning specimen collection.The guards stop me at the perimeter. Two young wolves. Armed but nervous."Who are you?" one demands."Dr. Thomas Wickham. Cambridge University. I study supernatural medicine." I show forged credentials. "I heard about tomorrow's Parliamentary assault. Came to offer assistance.""Assistance how?""Medical supplies. Magical healing knowledge. Whatever helps." I gesture to my bag. "I don't agree with Parliament's extermination order. These wolves deserve support, not slaughter."The guards exchange glances. Suspicious but hopeful. Desperate situations make people want to believe in kindness."Wait here. We'll get Isla."They disappear. I stand in the cold. Waiting.This is the tricky part. Isla Reid is

She's the pack elder's wife. In charge of "managing" me. "From London. Your man.""He's not my man." I take the letter. Don't open it. "Cormac made that clear when he stopped returning my calls.""Then why does he write?""He doesn't. These are probably legal documents. Establishing that Finn has no claim to pack inheritance."I've received

    CALLUMDawn breaks over the Rookeries. The last sunrise some of us will ever see.I stand on the command post roof. Watching the horizon. Waiting for the assault.Behind me, fifty-two fighters are positioned. Armed. Ready. Terrified but determined.Isla's medical station is staffed. She's got twenty cots prepared. Knows it won't be enough. Prepared anyway.Tom's maintaining the fae wards. Weak ones. Delaying tactics. But better than nothing.Valentina's beside me. Armed with stakes and silver blades. Her hand finds mine."Whatever happens," she says, "I'm glad we had last night."Last night. After Magnus left for the Seelie Court. After we learned he traded seventy-six years for military intervention. We spent hours together. Talking. Planning. Loving. Knowing it might be our last chance."Me too," I say.In the distance, movement. The Parliamentary hunters are positioning.I count them through binoculars. Sixty vampire hunters. Ten dragons in human form. Ten Hermetic Order mages. Thi

    MAGNUSI'm old. Seventy-three years as a wolf. Fifty of those years packless.I've seen extermination attempts before. This isn't Parliament's first time trying to eliminate organized resistance.The young wolves in the shelter don't know. They think this is new. Unprecedented. Special.It's not."Listen," I tell the gathered crew. They're having final meeting before tomorrow's battle. "I need to tell you something. History you should know."Callum nods. "Go ahead, Magnus.""Twenty years ago, Parliament tried this exact thing. Different location. Camden instead of Rookeries. But same situation. Packless wolves organizing. Providing mutual aid. Building community." I sit down. My joints ache. "Parliament declared them threat. Sent hunters. Over a hundred vampires and mercenaries.""What happened?" Valentina asks."They failed."Everyone stops. Attention laser-focused on me."Failed how?" Callum leans forward."The fae intervened." I pull out an old photo. Shows Camden's packless commun

    LORD SILVAIN MORDAUNTThe final pieces are in position. Seven days of preparation culminating in tomorrow's dawn assault.I stand in my war room. Maps covering the walls. Troop positions marked. Attack vectors planned. Every detail accounted for."Status report," I say to my assembled commanders.The vampire hunter captain speaks first. "Sixty hunters positioned around Rookeries perimeter. Silver weapons, UV armaments, full tactical gear. Ready to deploy on your order.""Hermetic Order?" I look at Master Thorne."Ten mages in position. Containment wards are active. Nothing supernatural enters or exits the Rookeries without our knowledge. When you give the signal, we collapse the wards inward. Force them into the center where your hunters wait.""Dragon mercenaries?"Lord Vermithrax nods. "Ten of my best. Positioned at key intersections. They'll drive targets toward your kill zones. Anyone who breaks through our lines faces dragon fire.""Perfect." I mark the final positions on my map.
