BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Thirty Nine — The Choice
Wolves from both ends of the lane.Six from the east. Five from the west. All shifted. All moving with the slow certainty of something that had already decided how this ended.Tyra pressed her back against the wall.Troy shifted.The sound of it cracked through the narrow lane before any wolf had covered half the distance. Fast and hard and nothing like the controlled shifts she had felt from a distance before. This was immediate. Desperate. His slim frame folding and expanding simultaneously, bones resetting in under two seconds, dark fur coming in across pale skin, gold eyes burning through the transformation unchanged.The wolves stopped.One of their own had just shifted against them.Troy used that half second of confusion to move.He hit the nearest wolf before it processed what it was seeing. Caught it mid step and took it down hard and had his teeth at its throat before the wolf finished falling.He stood over it.Gold eyes moving between both groups.Eleven wolves looking at
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Thirty Eight — Every Wolf in Grimwall
They came from both ends of Veil Street at once.Not two or three.All of them.Tyra felt eleven heartbeats closing in before the first wolf appeared around the corner. Fast. Coordinated. Moving into position from every direction simultaneously like something that had been planned before the surge happened. Before they even knew where she was.They had been watching the merchant house.Waiting.Troy grabbed her and pulled her back through the door before the first wolf reached the street and they pressed flat against the wall inside and she felt the heartbeats surround the building from every side. Every exit. Every window. Every gap between the buildings on either side.Covered.All of it covered before she knew they were coming.Troy looked at the window. The door. The ceiling. His jaw working through something that was not finding a good answer.She looked at her hands.The warmth was sitting quietly. Steady. Waiting for a reason.The door came off its frame.Not opened. Taken clea
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Thirty Seven — The Rage
They already have Clark.Tyra read the message and handed the phone back without a word.Troy watched her face.She walked to the window and pressed her forehead against the cold glass and looked at Grimwall below. Both worlds moving through her city tonight. Wolves sweeping in organised patterns. Vampires sliding through the shadows near the north quarter. All of it because of her blood and her existence and a law written before she took her first breath.Clark had spent seventeen years running to find her.Gone before she could ask him anything.She pressed her palms flat against the glass.The warmth in them was different now.Not the quiet pulse she had learned to manage. Something gathering. Something that had found the shape of her anger and was filling it from the inside out.Troy moved behind her.Not close enough to touch. Just present. That particular warmth she had learned to feel from two feet away without needing to look."We will find him," he said quietly.She said noth
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Thirty Six — What Anger Does
They ran through the gap and did not stop. Troy pulled her left through the cathedral square and right into the merchant quarter and she followed and kept her hands away from the walls because she did not trust them and she did not trust herself and the warmth in her palms had not settled since the warehouse wall came apart under her hands and she was not sure it was going to settle anytime soon. They turned into a narrow lane off Veil Street and Troy pulled her into a doorway and stopped. Listened. Heartbeats two streets over. Moving parallel. Not closing in. She exhaled. He did not. He was still tracking the sound with that focused stillness that said his wolf was doing the work his eyes could not. She watched his face and felt the warmth pulse once in her hands and pressed them against her coat. "Clear," he said. She nodded. They kept moving. The first burst hit without warning. They were crossing the library square when a wolf dropped from the rooftop dire
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Thirty Five — The Wall
They ran from the army.Four streets. Five. Troy pulling her through gaps and turnings she would never have found alone, his hand on her arm the only fixed point in a city that had stopped feeling safe hours ago.They came out on the south bank and Troy pulled her into the shadow of an old warehouse and stopped.Pressed her back against the wall.Pressed himself beside her.Close. Too close for any reason except that the alley was narrow and the night was dangerous and neither of them had anywhere else to be.She could feel his heartbeat from here.Not the supernatural frequency she felt from wolves and vampires. Just a heartbeat. Present and fast and human in a way that grounded her when everything else was trying to pull her apart.She focused on it.Breathed."Clear," he said quietly.She exhaled.He did not move away.She did not ask him to."We cannot keep running," she said."No," he said."We need a plan," she said."Yes," he said."Do you have one," she said.He was quiet for
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Thirty Four — Something Waking Up
The north gate was three streets away.Tyra heard it before she saw it. Not the army itself. The reaction to it. Grimwall waking up wrong. Windows lighting. Voices carrying. The particular noise a city made when something had entered it that did not belong and could not be explained away.Drak was already moving.Not toward them. Away. Back into the dark with his phone at his ear and his grey eyes already somewhere else entirely. Like the conversation had been filed and closed and what came next required everything he had.She watched him go."Troy," she said."I know," he said."What do we do," she said.He looked toward the north gate.Then at her."We do not go toward it," he said."Clark is out there somewhere," she said."I know," he said."If vampires just breached the north gate and Clark is between us and them—""I know Tyra," he said. Low and serious and carrying something underneath it that said he had already run through every available option and none of them were clean.S
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Ten — What the Lightning Showed Her
She was not fully gone.Not yet.She could feel the cold ground under her. The wet soil against her cheek. The pain in her knee somewhere distant and patient, waiting for her to come back to it properly. She could hear the forest around her. Quiet now. Whatever had been in that vial had burned thro
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Nine — The Wolf That Chose Her
The creatures closed in together. Tyra pressed her back against the tree trunk and looked between all three of them and felt the cold pouring off them like something that had never once been warm. Her knee was throbbing from the fall. Her throat was raw from screaming. Her hands were flat against
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Eight — Things That Hunt in the Dark
She should not have gone into the forest.She knew that before she even crossed the tree line. Grimwall's forest sat on the east edge of town where the cobblestones ran out and the streetlamps stopped and the path narrowed into something that barely deserved the name. People in Grimwall did not go
BENEATH THE CRIMSON MOON Chapter Seven — The Hunter
The wolf did not back down.Tyra pressed her palm flat against the cold glass and watched from her window as it held its ground in the middle of the dark street below. Every hair on its body raised. That low growl rolling out of it like thunder that had not broken yet.The man at the mouth of the a
