Logan tilted his head, watching his second-in-command as if he were staring at a particularly thick-headed pup.

"She’s here because she’ll be your secretary, Lucas. Simple as that."

"My secretary? You’ve got to be joking!" Lucas Grant slammed Laney’s history onto the table, his eyes wide with disbelief. "This company is crawling with executives. Why saddle me with her? It’s not right, Logan!"

Logan didn't even blink. "You’re the only one in these halls who knows her true scent, Lucas. She’s Bro

    Luna had been circling like a predator waiting for the kill, and now she lunged.She curled her lip at me, pulling a slate-device from her pack with a flourish.Tapping the glass, she held it up for the surrounding wolves to see. "I drafted a collection of Spring-bloom silks last season, but the High Alphas at Pierce Holdings didn't choose them for the trade treaties. The designs were archived. Imagine my fury when I saw Brooke’s work on the runway—nearly stitch-for-stitch mirrors of my own soul-craft. I am certain she scavenged my private files and claimed them as her own. She is a common scavenger, nothing more than a thief!"The entire ritual of the show ground to a halt. Every snout turned toward us, sniffing for the scent of scandal."The lines are too close," one of the observers whispered, her eyes tracking the silver threads. "It smells like a blatant lift.""Agreed," another grunted, folding his arms. "The palette and the drape are practically twins.""Quiet your howls!" a se

    A cold shiver raced down my spine as the image of Ritchie’s face flashed in my mind.He had the polished features of a High Alpha, but in that moment of rage, there was no denying he looked like a manifestation of the Great Devourer itself."I am so sorry you were forced to endure that. I was drowning in pack business and didn't catch your signal until the scent of trouble was already cold. It won't happen again, Brooke. I will be the first one there to shield you next time."Logan stroked my cheek, his touch feather-light, but his eyes were vacant, fixed on some dark horizon. His mind was clearly a storm of calculation and vengeance."I believe you." I pulled him closer, inhaling the earthy, grounding scent of his skin.It was the only way I could find any solace. In a world of shifting loyalties and ancient blood-feuds, Logan was my anchor. I felt safe only when I was tucked against his side."Little wolf, you’ve been through a war today. You look exhausted. Let me take you back to

    I had no choice but to sink into the hard plastic chair and wait, my mind spinning in a thousand directions.As if he could feel the static charge of the silence, Samson glanced at Logan with a knowing, heavy look before disappearing back into the surgery wing.This left only Logan and me in the sterile, dimly lit corridor.Logan pressed his lips together, his head hanging low as he stared at the scuffed floor.After what felt like an eternity of agonizing silence, he finally lifted his gaze to speak, but he found me already boring holes into him with a thousand unanswered questions.I clenched my fists until my knuckles turned white. "Logan, I need the truth. What exactly is the history between you and Ritchie?"The air between us was thick, suffocating.But Logan looked more annoyed than anything, his jaw tight as he met my eyes. It was as if he was bracing for a lecture he didn't want to hear.I could feel my own stubbornness rising to match his. I wasn't backing down this time.He

    It was Laney. The moment she had seen Brooke being led into Ritchie’s armored transport, she hadn’t hesitated. She flagged down a passing scout vehicle and ordered the driver to track that scent at any cost.The heavy transport had come to a halt at The Gilded Claw, a place notorious for its high-caste patrons.Laney leaped from her vehicle and trailed them inside, staying in the shadows. Ritchie Pierce wasn't just a high-ranking wolf; he was a name that commanded fear in the Citadel. It was only natural that his private chamber was perched at the very peak of the establishment, guarded by two massive Sentinels in dark tactical gear.Laney knew the Pierce Compound’s reputation. Their private Enforcers were bred for one thing: brutality. They were the elite of the elite, chosen specifically for their ability to suppress any threat to the bloodline. Laney kept her distance, her pulse steady as she measured the floor. She needed a window of opportunity, a moment where she could strike be

    I checked my wrist-link and expertly sidestepped Lucas Grant’s probing."Lucas isn't like the rest of the council elders. He’s too perceptive. If I let this conversation drag on, he’ll scent the lie on my breath. I have to distance myself before he exposes my hand." I gathered my scrolls and slipped out of the briefing chamber.The moment the heavy doors of my office closed, the facade of a supportive mentor vanished. I slammed the documents onto the stone desk and glared out at the sprawling, mist-shrouded spires of the Citadel."Brooke Lawson is proving to be a jagged thorn," I hissed.I was both livid and stunned that she had managed to sink the Pierce Compound’s flagship project."I underestimated that little stray. How did she find the teeth to fight back after the rumors I seeded?"I was the one who had whispered the poison about her into the ears of the pack. To break her spirit and keep her from the design tables, I’d intentionally framed her as a social climber. Part of the p

    "Get a transport runner to this coordinate with the finest artistic tools in the Citadel immediately!"On the other side of the link, Evan Brooks was stunned by the Alpha’s command. He had been occupied overseeing the cleanup of the Pierce Compound, but an order from Logan wasn't something one questioned. "I... understood, sir. I’ll have it handled within the hour."Evan rightfully guessed that this sudden whim was for Brooke’s benefit. Thirty minutes later, the rhythmic thrum of rotors broke the silence of the island as a supply craft hovered over the clearing, dropping a sealed crate.Logan wasted no time. He hauled the heavy easel and the sturdy oak drawing board onto his back, clutching the professional-grade pigments and fine-hair brushes in his hands as he emerged back onto the sand."Logan! Where did those come from?"I stood up, my jaw dropping. I looked around the desolate beach, then back at the massive drawing board. "There isn't a soul for miles, and certainly no shops in

    Evelyn planned to guide the rogue toward the shadow-paths of the Dead-Lands, ensuring the Citadel trackers would never catch her scent as the architect of this cruelty. She had received a jagged mind-link from the brute earlier, confirming Brooke was in his claws. But as the moons climbed and the h

    "Brooke, you’ve clearly misunderstood. I only lashed out at my daughter in a moment of heated temper. It was meaningless venting," Evelyn said, her voice dripping with artificial sweetness as her eyes remained glued to the glittering tribute on the table."I’m not interested in your excuses," Logan

    I hopped off the transport at the edge of the Lawson Estate, my heart heavy. Now that I’d signed the blood-contract with Logan, it was time to collect. I hadn't sold my soul to an outcast for nothing; Ruth’s life depended on my father keeping his word.The heavy iron gates hummed with a low-frequen

  • Bound to the Rogue Alpha   CHAPTER 7

    In my dreams, the mist over the Shifter Citadel finally lifted. Ruth was standing in the sun, her wolf spirit vibrant and whole, the gray sickness purged from her eyes. We were walking back to the old foster den, and for the first time in years, the air didn't taste like ash.Then the sharp, jagged
