Olivia

I was running around, trying to make sure everything was perfect. I could not believe I had forgotten my father's birthday until the last minute. The maids were putting up decorations while my mother stalled my father. I was making sure everything was perfect. Coming back home at the last moment was such a terrible idea, but it was also good because it helped me get out of my own head. I had been so trapped, concerned about Grayson, Hudson, and now I don't even know if I'm adding Jimmy

    OliviaThe black thing pulled, and I left the porch.My feet came off the boards. I flew four feet across the air and hit the grass on my back, and the vase hit with me and did not break. The tendril around my wrist was cold enough to burn. It dragged me across the lawn toward the open door of the sky, though there was no door in the sky. There was only the black light pouring out of the crack and the sound of thirty wolves shouting.Grayson landed on me.He came down on his knees in the grass beside me and grabbed the tendril with both bare hands. The skin on his palms, which had barely healed, split again. The tendril screamed. It was not one voice. It was a hundred mouths opening at once. He did not let go. Flames ran up his forearms and into the black, and the thing shuddered and let go of my wrist and slid back into the vase, trailing smoke.I scrambled up. My wrist was white and numb to the elbow."Olivia." Grayson had me by the shoulders. His face was gray under the soot. "Look

    OliviaI went to the window.Grayson caught my arm and I shook him off. I needed to see. The glass was gone from the frame, and cold air poured in with the sun, and from the second floor I could see the whole lawn.Thirty wolves stood in a half circle on the grass. Black jackets. Silver rings on every right hand. In the center, with his hands folded in front of him, stood a man I would never have picked out of a crowd. He was heavy and gray at the temples, in a brown cardigan, with a soft face. Nothing about him looked dangerous at all.At his feet, on their knees on the wet grass, were Hudson and Clarissa. Their wrists were tied. Hudson's lip was split. He looked up at the window and found my face and his mouth opened, but no sound came out. He shook his head, small and desperate.Hector smiled up at me. It was the smile from the porch. Eve had learned it from him, and on him it did not look empty at all. It looked kind."There she is," he called. "There is my girl."The thing in my

    OliviaGrayson did not move.I watched him through my own eyes, unable to blink. My mouth was smiling. My chin had lifted a fraction. My hand rose from my side without any order from me and settled against his chest, over his heart, and the fingers spread with a confidence that was not mine."You grew," my mouth said. "You used to be shorter than me.""Mara." It came out of him broken in the middle."Look at you. Smoke on your shoulders. Burned hands." My thumb found the blistered skin on his knuckles and stroked it. "You never could keep your hands out of a fire."I screamed. Nothing came out. I was somewhere behind my own face, and I could feel everything and move nothing. I felt the heat of his chest through my palm. I felt his heart slam against it. I felt a grief I had never lived rise in my throat, old and enormous, and it did not belong to me.Grayson caught my wrist. His fingers were shaking so hard they rattled the bones."This is not possible.""No," said my mouth, gently. "

    OliviaI could not move my hand.The knocks came again. Three, slow, from inside the clay. Each one traveled up through my palm and into my arm and settled in my chest, where my wolf pressed hard against my ribs, wanting to answer."Olivia. Look at me.""I can't let go.""I know." Grayson's hands tightened over mine. "Brace."He tore my hand off the glaze.The seam gave a sharp crack and went dark. Grayson hissed through his teeth, and the room filled with the smell of scorched skin. He dropped to his knees on the carpet and held both hands away from his body. The vase sat on the quilt, green and ugly and silent. A line of sunlight had begun to creep across the carpet toward it.The knocking had stopped.I stared at my own palm. It was red but unmarked. His were another matter. The skin across both of them had gone white and split into blisters."Show me," I said."It is nothing.""Show me."He opened his hands. I took them carefully in mine. The blisters were already closing at the e

    OliviaThe door opened without a knock.The man stood in the frame with both hands folded on top of his cane. He did not step inside. His eyes went to the vase on the quilt, then to the hand Grayson still held clamped on my wrist, then to the space between our bodies. I had not noticed how little of it there was."You look disappointed, Alpha," he said."I am deciding which wall to put you through.""I would enjoy watching you try. After sunrise." He glanced at the window. The sky behind the glass had gone from gray to pale gold. "Forty minutes."Grayson moved half a step, and that was enough to put his shoulder in front of mine. I felt the heat of his back through my sleeve. I leaned around him."You said you would ask for something," I said."I will.""Ask now.""Olivia," Grayson said, very low."He gave his word. If he wants something, I want to know what it costs before the sun comes up."The man's smile widened. "Quick. I was told you would be.""Told by who?" Grayson said.The a

    OliviaThe man did not look at the empty cloth behind him. He looked at me."Come inside, Miss Jackson. Both of you." He stepped aside and gestured down the hall with one gloved hand. "Hector's men hold both ends of the street. Mine hold this house. You may meet his on the lawn, or you may rest here until sunrise.""And at sunrise?" Grayson said."I will ask for something. Until then, nobody in this house is touched. I have already given my word once this morning."I got to my mother before Grayson could stop me. He did not try. Her hands were cold. The cut under her jaw was shallow and had stopped bleeding. She gripped my wrist hard enough to hurt."Your father is in the kitchen," she whispered. "They tied him to a chair. He's alive."I listened. There, behind the kitchen wall, a heartbeat that was slow and heavy and angry. I almost laughed. My father was always angry long before he was afraid.Two men in gray stood at the foot of the stairs. They kept their eyes straight ahead. In t
