Gertha, she had told me in a whisper as we left the library, was her name. She walked ahead, holding a small candle, her steps light as a feather, the steps of someone who had learned long ago how to move without being noticed.

I followed her in silence.

The corridors up here were quieter than the ones below, the torches set further apart so that the light came in pools with stretches of shadow between them. The paintings on these walls were smaller, more private somehow.

I was still reeling fro

  • Bound to the Alpha Twins   Where She Belongs

    The tray held a bowl of porridge that had steam rising from it, a cup of water and a spoon, exactly as I had requested.The steam rose into my nostrils. Porridge was my comfort food, especially the way my mother prepared it.I tasted a spoonful, and a moan slipped from my mouth."Are you just going to stand there watching me?""I'm to be at your beck and call, my lady," Gertha said, standing by the door, her hands folded."I do not look helpless to you, do I?""No, but it is my duty. I'm paid to.""Leave. I want to be on my own," I said, finality in my tone."As you wish, my lady." She bowed her head slightly. "When you are finished, I will come back for the tray.""I can take it.""The kitchens are not for guests.""I am not a guest."She looked at me. "You are not staff either."I ate another spoonful. The silence was not uncomfortable, but it was not easy."I will take the tray," I said again.Gertha walked to the door and opened it. "Leave it. I will collect it," she said, closing

  • Bound to the Alpha Twins   Hell Would Break Loose

    It was dark and the moon was high in the sky when Kaelan returned. Silver Fang was asleep.He had been at the northern border since midday, inspecting the watchtowers and listening to reports of rogues testing the perimeter. Nothing had happened, nothing ever happened, however, his father insisted on regular patrols, and Kaelan had stopped arguing over such matters years ago.His boots were damp from wet roads, his coat smelled of earth and rain.He craved a fire's warmth, a hot drink and sleep. But as he turned the route toward his chambers, he saw a light coming from the small sitting room at the end of the hall.Elara was inside, stretched across the sofa with a book in her hand. She did not look up from its pages when he entered."What are you still doing up, Buggy?""Stop it," her lips thinned as her gaze lifted to her brother's face."What?" He said, stifling a laugh."Buggy, it's been years and you still choose to torment me with it."Buggy was a nickname which was born from El

  • Bound to the Alpha Twins   Not Even Me

    Gertha was waiting inside the entrance, her hands folded and her face as neutral as ever."My lady," she greeted and took my bag without asking, hefting it over her shoulder.Then she turned and walked down the corridor, her footsteps soft on the stone, I followed closely behind.The palace was so quiet, that my mere breath felt too loud."The Queen has requested your presence," Gertha said."After you have settled.""Settled where?""In your room, it's the same one as before."We turned a corner. The only sounds that reached filled the air were our footsteps and the distant crackle of torches."Ophelia." My feet stilled. The voice was female, low, unhurried, a voice that did not need to rise to be heard. It came from somewhere to my left. Gertha stopped too, her back still to me.I turned my head in the direction the voice has come from.A woman stood a few paces away, her gaze focused on me. She was taller than I was, her posture loose and easy, one shoulder leaning against the wal

    "You are going to be late," Pilar said from the doorway, her arms crossed and her hair still wet from washing."I am not going to be late," I answered, "the carriage is not even here yet."My mother stood behind her, wiping her hands on her apron."You packed everything?" my mother asked. "Yes," I replied."The book?" "Yes.""The salve?" "Yes, Mama."She nodded but did not look at me, her gaze fixed on the bag by the door, on the worn handle and the buckle she had fixed herself two winters ago.Pilar uncrossed her arms. "She will be fine.""You do not know that," my mother replied."I know her," Pilar said, looking at me. "She is stubborn and that counts for something."My mother finally turned, her eyes moving over my face, my coat, my hands."You have everything?""I do, mother."The carriage arrived then, the horses' breath fogging in the cold air while the guards sat up front with their faces blank. Pilar pulled me into a tight, brief hug."Do not die.""I will try not to," I answ

  • Bound to the Alpha Twins   What They Knew Best

    The fire had burned in the hearth, its dying embers casting a weak reddish glow across the large stone chamber.Shadows stretched long and unsteady over the wooden furniture and thick fur rugs. The air hung heavy with the mingled scents of spent passion; sweat, candle wax and something sweeter: sex.A single candle flickered on the bedside table, its wax dripping slowly onto the dark wood.Niverna lay completely naked on the tangled silk sheets, her skin still flushed and damp from their rigorous exertions. Her red hair spilled wildly across the white pillows.She watched through half-lidded eyes as Lucian rolled out of bed, his powerful, scarred body moving with that familiar grace that had clung to him ever since she knew him.He did not glance back at her for a second.He reached down for his discarded clothes scattered across the floor, muscles flexing under his skin.She stretched languidly, arching her back like a cat, then pushed herself up on one elbow. A small, knowing smirk p

  • Bound to the Alpha Twins   You Were Never Made to Be Small

    Four days had passed by swiftly and I was up before the sun.The cottage was cold and quiet, as I moved through it carefully, not wanting to wake my mother, my feet finding the familiar floorboards that did not creak.I stood in the middle of the kitchen in my nightdress and practiced.The curtsy first. One foot behind the other, spine straight, eyes down.One. Two. Three. Rise.Hands loose at my sides. Chin level.Then the walk, legs moving back and forth at an unhurried pace.Next, I tried the bow, a quick dip of acknowledgment for council members, shorter and less submissive than the curtsy. It was a gesture that said I see you without saying I am beneath you.Then the address. The correct titles, the correct order of greeting, who outranked whom and what that meant for where my eyes went and whether I spoke first or waited.By the time the sun rose and the first sounds of the ridge drifted through the walls; a gate opening, someone calling a name into the early morning, my body was
