Beyond Reasonable Doubt (Full Series) Chapter 2
Chapter 2Jordan POVThe subpoena sat on my passenger seat like it had paid rent.I’d tried shoving it into my briefcase. I’d tried folding it into my folder. I’d even tried the most sophisticated legal strategy of all—turning it face down and pretending it wasn’t real.It was still there.“Your jaw’s doing that thing,” Maddox said from the driver’s seat.I looked up. “What thing?”“The one where you’re about to commit a felony with a fountain pen.”“Relax,” I said, tapping the edge of the packet with my fingernail. “If I’m going to commit a felony, I’m going to do it with style. This is Staples paper. It’s insulting.”He didn’t smile. Not really. But something in his eyes shifted like he appreciated the fact that I was furious and still functioning.We’d left the courthouse five minutes ago. The whole ride out had been me reading the subpoena in silence while my brain sorted it into categories: illegal, improper, cute attempt, absolutely not.Silvia had subpoenaed my investigator. Sh
Beyond Reasonable Doubt (Full Series) Book 2: The Defense of Wolves
Book 2: The Defense of WolvesChapter 1Act I — WARRANT SEASON AND LINES CROSSED Jordan POVBy the time I hit the courthouse steps, the sky had that exhausted gray that made everything look like it needed more sleep and less human drama. The kind of morning where even the pigeons looked like they’d like to file a motion to be left alone.I tightened my coat, took one last sip of coffee that was more burnt than brewed, and reminded myself of three things:One—grand juries move fast when someone wants them to.Two—Silvia Smith didn’t want justice. She wanted control.Three—I was not about to let her turn Mercer into a headline-shaped coffin.Inside, the building smelled like floor polish and bad decisions. The security guard at the metal detector gave me a nod. I got those nods a lot—half respect, half please don’t make me do paperwork today.“Morning, Ms. Carter,” he said.“Morning,” I answered. “If anyone asks, I’m here for the arts and culture exhibit.”He blinked once. Then, very s
Beyond Reasonable Doubt (Full Series) Chapter 70
Chapter 70Jordan POVSilvia leaves like she’s done me a favor.The door shuts behind her team, tires crunch the drive, and the house exhales—too loud, too fast, like everyone’s been holding their breath for hours and doesn’t know what to do with oxygen anymore.The common room doesn’t erupt into chaos. Not fully.It fractures.People scatter into corners, into whispers, into that quiet panic that feels more dangerous than yelling because it turns into decisions made in the dark. Kane moves through it like a steady hand on the back of a neck, redirecting, calming, cutting off speculation before it becomes a stampede. Rowan stays near the windows, still as a posted guard, eyes tracking the drive as if Silvia might come back just to test them.Elias is already gone.Of course he is. If the house is a body, Elias is the nervous system, and right now he’s somewhere trying to make sure it doesn’t seize up.I stand in the center of the room with my folder pressed against my ribs, posture st
Beyond Reasonable Doubt (Full Series) Chapter 69
Chapter 69Jordan POVDawn shows up like it owns the place.Not in a poetic way—just in the rude, practical way that daylight has of making everything look more real than it did at three a.m. The packhouse feels different in the morning. Less like a secret and more like a building full of people who have no choice but to pretend they’re normal.I’m in the common room before the first car hits the drive, folder in my hands, hair pulled back tight enough to mean business, coffee untouched because my stomach is doing that thing where it tries to convince me it’s helping by turning into a knot.Kane is already here, standing near the front windows like he’s a second set of locks. Rowan is on the far side of the room with that stillness that isn’t calm—it’s controlled violence, boxed up and taped shut. Elias is… not visible, which is exactly how Elias functions when things get dangerous.Maddox is by the fireplace, posture relaxed in a way that would fool an outsider.It doesn’t fool me.H
Beyond Reasonable Doubt (Full Series) Chapter 68
Chapter 68Maddox POVPre-dawn was the most dangerous time.Not because the sun wasn’t up yet. Because people’s restraint wore thin when they were tired, scared, and full of adrenaline with nowhere to put it.The packhouse was awake in the quiet way—footsteps measured, voices low, doors closing softly instead of slamming. The perimeter team rotated like clockwork. Elias had lights on in the digital room. Kane had already walked the common room twice, checking faces and exits, keeping the anxious ones from clustering into something that could turn ugly.I could feel the wolves underneath it all.Not shifted. Not growling. But there. Pressing against skin and bone like an answer waiting for a question.And the question was coming with dawn.Silvia Smith wasn’t just serving paper. She was bringing bodies. Investigators. Presence. Authority. The kind that made humans brave and wolves angry.I stood in the library doorway for a moment, listening.There were no raised voices.That mattered.
Beyond Reasonable Doubt (Full Series) Chapter 67
Chapter 67Jordan POVElias didn’t need to say my name twice.The room had already tilted.I stood there for half a beat—brain sorting, body wanting to panic, pride refusing to give it the satisfaction—then snapped into the only mode that’s ever saved me: work.“Okay,” I said, voice steadier than I felt. “Library. Now. I want Kane and Rowan. And I want this house quiet.”Elias blinked like he hadn’t expected me to take the wheel that fast.Maddox didn’t.He turned immediately, already moving toward the hall. “Kane,” he said, low into the air like the name itself was a command.I followed, grabbing my pad, the photos, and the printed threat messages. I didn’t look at my bed. If I looked at my bed, I might remember we were inches from making a career-ending decision ten minutes ago.Not happening.Not tonight.In the hallway, Elias slipped ahead. Maddox matched my pace, just close enough that I was aware of him without wanting to be. His gaze stayed forward. Controlled. Guarded.But his
