"What was that noise?" Mira grabbed Adrian's arm.

"Glass," Adrian said.

Helena's voice rang out again from down the hall. "Sir! Sir, come quick!"

All three of them ran, Adrian in front, Mira next, and Lena just behind. The hallway led into the main sitting room, and Mira froze at what she saw.

The big window was broken. Cold air blew in through the hole. On the floor near the glass lay a guard, motionless.

"Is he dead?" Mira asked.

Helena knelt by the man, with two fingers pressed to his neck.

    "What kind of thing?" Adrian asked sharply."A box," Helena replied. "It's small and made of wood, and there's a note attached, but sir, I don't think you want me to read the note over the radio.""Read it anyway," Adrian said. "We don't have time to be careful."There was a short pause, and they could hear papers moving through the radio."It says..." Helena began. Her voice became more serious as she read."A gift for the bride, so she understands exactly what she's marrying into. Open it together, or not at all. It is your choice."Mira was anxious. "Don't open it, Helena. Wait for us." Mira warned."I wasn't planning to open a strange box from Corin Draven by myself, Miss Voss," Helena replied. She tried to sound calm, but Mira could hear the fear in her voice."We're not going back to the estate," Adrian said. "Not now, because Corin has already moved the chapel plans forward.""Then what should I do with the box?" Helena asked."Leave it exactly where it is," Adrian said. "Don't

  • Bound To The Broken Heir   Chapter Twenty Two: Kael Draven

    Everyone stared at the radio as if it had suddenly become dangerous."How did you get this frequency?" Adrian asked, quickly grabbing the radio."Elias gave it to me years ago," Kael replied. "He told me to keep it in case a night like this ever happened. I never thought I would actually need it."Elias became very still. "Kael. It's been a long time.""Twenty-two years," Kael said. "I would recognize your voice even through all this static, old man.""You two know each other?" Adrian asked."We were on the same side once," Elias said. "The night everything went wrong.""I need to know something first," Adrian said into the radio. "Are you loyal to Corin or not?"There was a long silence in the room, however, Mira waited nervously for Kael's answer."I'm loyal to my pack," Kael finally said. "Corin is the leader of the pack right now, so that used to mean I was loyal to him too. But lately, things don't feel the same anymore.""That's not a clear answer," Marcus said."It's the only h

  • Bound To The Broken Heir   Chapter Twenty One: The Night It Happened

    "Inside, all of you, now," Adrian said quickly as he looked up and down the dark street.Everyone went back inside the small brick building while Elias walked slowly with the help of his cane. Helena locked the door behind them and closed the thin curtain over the only window.Elena sat fully upright on the small bed. She was wide awake and staring at the older man. She looked at him while trying to remember a face from a very distant time."Do I know you?" she asked."You were four years old the last time I held you," Elias said gently. "You were too young to remember me.""You worked for us, and you were part of our security team just like Thomas Voss. You and Thomas were close, weren't you?" Robert said slowly. He sat down heavily in the nearest chair because his legs were too weak to keep him standing. "Closer than anyone knew," Elias replied. "Thomas and I worked together for many years before either family trusted us with their important secrets.""Then start there," Adrian sai

    Nobody spoke for a long time as the car continued moving, while the orange lights from the streets passed across the windows."Say that again," Adrian finally said. "But slowly.""Seraphine Draven," Mira said. "That's the name written on this certificate. It says she is my mother.""That doesn't make sense," Marcus said from the back seat. "Corin has never talked about having a sister who left the pack. He has never even mentioned someone named Seraphine.""Maybe he doesn't know," Mira said. "Or maybe he knows everything and has been hiding it from everyone."Adrian held the steering wheel tightly."If your mother was a Draven and your father was human, and your father worked security for my family, then their meeting probably wasn't an accident either.""Nothing about tonight feels like an accident," Mira said bitterly. "I'm starting to think my whole life was planned."Marcus leaned forward between the seats. "There's more inside the bag; look at this photograph," he said.He handed

    "Say that again," Adrian said as he quickly took the radio from Marcus's belt. "You said there are other people and they're not Corin's men?""I'm serious," Marcus replied, breathing heavily. Adrian could hear fighting in the background. "These men aren't wearing the same clothes as Corin's men. They don't even have the scent of our pack either. I don't know who sent them.""Get Samuel out of there," Adrian ordered. "Now.""I'm trying," Marcus said. A loud grunt, then a heavy thud, came over the radio. "There are at least four of them. I need help."Adrian was already putting on his jacket. "I'm coming.""You can't leave," Robert said. He struggled to stand even though he was still weak. "What about Corin's deadline? Mira? The chapel? Everything we're supposed to do?""Marcus is in danger right now," Adrian replied. "I'm not going to leave him there to die just because we have a deadline.""I'm coming with you," Mira said."No," Adrian said as he quickly walked toward the door."Adria

    "Say that again," Adrian said, grabbing the radio."They're at the gates," Helena said, while sounding fast. "They are not many, just a small group, but they're not trying to break in this time. They're just standing there and calling for Mira.""Calling how?" Adrian asked."Shouting over and over again, saying they have a message, and it's only for her," Helena said.Mira experienced a sudden shock. "That doesn't make sense. Corin already told us what he wants, then why would he send someone to the estate too?""Maybe it's not Corin," Marcus said slowly. "Maybe it's someone else entirely.""Who else would even know to ask for me by name?" Mira questioned.Nobody answered that, and there was deep silence in the small room."Helena, can you see who's talking?" Adrian asked."One man," Helena said. "He is older; he is not dressed like Corin's usual people. He wore no mask, and no gun; that is all I can see. He says he'll wait exactly ten minutes, then he leaves, message undelivered."A
