The bounty is twenty-three hours old when the first truck hits the tanker wall.

The crash rings through the canyon like a dropped bell, and I feel it in the granite under my chest. I lie flat on the north ledge, forty feet above the road, with the crossbow braced on a rock. Below me, five tankers sit nose to tail across the canyon mouth, chained together, a half-built frame of steel beams welded along their roofs. Since Salem the day fits in three lines: a night drive north with a flatbed of sil

  • Blood Moon Apocalypse: Rise of the Last Lycan Sovereign    A Spy in the Valley

    I am halfway to the wire before Cal finishes saying her name.The access road is a black strip under a red sky. Gravel snaps under my boots. My ribs ache from nine nights on the concrete, and the Boost sits dead in my legs. Justin falls beside me and does not ask who Talia is. He just runs.Four hundred meters. The razor wire glitters at the edge of the floodlights, and a shape lies tangled in it at the foot of a post. Mud to her knees. Hair plastered flat. Both hands wrapped in wire, bleeding, and her whole back shakes with sobs.It is the same mud and the same sobs, on the same night to the day.I stop ten feet off and level the crossbow."Vespera?" Talia lifts a face streaked brown and wet. "Oh, thank goodness. It is me.""I see that. How did you find the gate?""The bounty names the valley. Everyone knows." She coughs, and the wire sings against her sleeve. "I ran from the pack house. I walked for days. Please. I have nowhere else."The panel opens at the edge of my vision.[Pulse

  • Blood Moon Apocalypse: Rise of the Last Lycan Sovereign    Sparring with a Beast

    Nine days have passed since the whole business at the gatehouse, and now Justin has just thrown me down onto the concrete for the ninth time, slamming me flat against the hard, unforgiving surface.The practice pad rings out beneath my back, a hollow, echoing sound that seems to travel right through my spine. Up above me, the floodlights smear into a blur of white that stings my eyes and washes out everything else. My lungs collapse flat inside my chest, and the small bit of air I manage to pull back in tastes like dust and sweat mixed together."Nine," Pike calls out from where he sits on an oil drum at the very edge of the pad, keeping count like it is some kind of official record. His earbuds are hanging loose around his neck, and he is busy running a book on all of us, taking bets like this is a real sport. "Lyra, you owe me ten bucks, and I intend to collect it. She did not even make it past eight before she went down.""She is still talking, though," Lyra

  • Blood Moon Apocalypse: Rise of the Last Lycan Sovereign    Transactional Boundaries

    "Ten lines," I say, keeping my voice flat and even as I lay the terms out in front of him. "I'll give you ten lines to agree to, and once you've heard all of them, that's when we decide together how this is going to go."Forty minutes later, a stranger with a scarred face is sitting across from me at the plywood table inside the gatehouse, and Cal's shotgun is resting on the wood between the two of us. When I glance up, the clock hanging on the wall reads 1:05. By now it's Tuesday, and the night has dragged on long enough that it feels like it might never end. Lyra is perched on top of a crate with her tablet in her hands, and she keeps glaring at him like he personally owes her money and has no intention of paying it back."One," I say, starting the count. "The wall is mine. My word is the one that counts."Two. The men who serve under me answer to me and to nobody else.""Three. They get bunks to sleep in and food to eat. And they do not get a vote in h

    I do not lower it."Turn around slowly," I say. "Hands where I can see them.""You will need that bolt in a minute." His voice stays level. He is still facing the bodies. "Do not waste it on me.""Why?""The injector cracked an hour ago. That smell carries four miles." He tilts his head, listening to something I cannot hear. "I have been waiting for what it brings but you came first."The panel chimes.[Hostile Signature approaching. Tier 2. Distance: 80 meters. Speed: 31 mph.]Trees snap to my right. Not one tree. A whole row, as if a truck is driving through a fence.

  • Blood Moon Apocalypse: Rise of the Last Lycan Sovereign     Shadows at the Perimeter

    Four nights after the crows, the north camera alarm shrieks, and Lyra's voice cuts the radio in half."Vess. Heat on the north slope. Man-shaped, walking a grid, slow and neat." Her keys clatter. "It is the rifle guy. And he is not hiding anymore."I am out of the gatehouse before she finishes. Monday night, 9:40. My scalp scabbed shut in the spring days ago, and my eye is the only part of me still bleeding. The clouds hold a dull rust glow, and the pines on the north slope stand like a black wall."Boss." Cal's boots hit the road behind me. "You are not going up there alone.""He has been on my ridge for a month and never shot at me." I seat a bolt. "He wants to talk, or he wants me alone.""Both of those are bad." He presses a road flare into my hand. "Light it if you need me. I will bring Dutch and every flamethrower we do not own.""Keep the radio on."The slope eats the first hundred meters. Deadfall, loose scree, wet needles that slide under my boots. No owls, no insects. Since

  • Blood Moon Apocalypse: Rise of the Last Lycan Sovereign    Shifting Weather Patterns

    Eight days after the cellar, every bird in the valley takes off at once.The roar of wings reaches me before the birds do, a sound like a hundred sheets snapping in a gale. I drop the wire cutters. Four hundred meters down the access road from the tanker line, six of us stand in the open with a spool of razor wire, and the sky over the cliffs has turned the color of a bruise.Not sunset. Sunset is orange. This is purple going yellow at the edges, like skin three days after a punch.My thigh does not hurt anymore. One night at the spring sealed the gash, and now it is a pink line under my jeans. My left eye is another story. It leaks again, and the thin red line the panel paints over moving targets keeps flickering at the edges."Vess." Lyra stands on the flatbed with her clipboard pressed to her chest. "Birds do not leave like that.""No," Cal says. He pulls the pump shotgun off his shoulder. "They do not."Black smoke pours over the north cliff. Then it banks, and smoke does not bank
