Colette's POV

They put two guards on the study door before Callum would even let me sit down, which told me more about how tonight was going to go than anything he'd said to me yet.

"Full guard on this house," he said, not quite looking at me. "Nobody in, nobody out without a name he's cleared himself. That includes you, until you've told me everything."

I sat. I folded my hands the way I used to fold them for the delegation, the way I used to fold them for anyone whose good opinion I still nee

    Colette's POVThey put two guards on the study door before Callum would even let me sit down, which told me more about how tonight was going to go than anything he'd said to me yet."Full guard on this house," he said, not quite looking at me. "Nobody in, nobody out without a name he's cleared himself. That includes you, until you've told me everything."I sat. I folded my hands the way I used to fold them for the delegation, the way I used to fold them for anyone whose good opinion I still needed, and understood, somewhere under the performance, that I no longer had the luxury of only performing.I want to be honest with myself about why, even if I never once managed that with anyone else in this house. I hadn't grown sorry overnight. I'd watched Ophelia spend two of her own people in a single night without so much as a pause to consider whether they'd earned better, and I had finally done the arithmetic I should have done years ago. If she could burn agents who'd served her faithful

  • Broken by My Family, Reclaimed by the Alpha King   Chapter 67

    Alpha King Cassian's POV"She never intended to." I said it once, out loud, so the room would stop waiting for me to say it any softer.Then I stopped thinking like Rook."Full guard on this house, now. Nobody in, nobody out without a name I've cleared myself." I was already moving toward the door, Callum falling into step beside me without being asked, Colette a half-step behind him, still gripping the ruined note like it might still be useful for something. "Soren finds every man we have and puts them on the wall. Not the gate. The wall, all of it, because if she's already killed two of ours at the north fence, she's not planning to knock.""Where are you going." Callum said it like he already knew and hated the answer."The cottage." My chest had gone tight in a way that had nothing to do with breath. "Elle's out there with two men watching from a distance, because this morning I thought a distance was enough.""Take guards with you.""There's no time to gather them." I was already

    Colette's POVThe messenger didn't make it past the east gate this time.I heard the commotion before I understood what it meant, boots on stone, a voice shouting for the gate to hold, and by the time I reached the window a guard already had a stranger pinned face down in the dirt, a folded scrap of parchment torn from his fist and held up like evidence."For the lady Colette." The guard's voice carried across half the courtyard. "He wouldn't say who sent him."I didn't need him to say it. I already knew.Callum reached the gate before I did, and by the time I got there he'd already taken the note from the guard's hand, unread, and turned to find me in the gathering crowd like he'd been waiting three years for exactly this moment."You told me if another one came, I should bring it to you." My voice came out steadier than I felt. "It seems I no longer have the choice not to.""Good." He didn't hand it back. "Then we'll read it together."We didn't do it in the courtyard, in front of e

    Murielle's POV He laughed against my inner thigh and licked a long, filthy stripe through me.I cried out. His tongue was hot and slow, parting me, lapping up everything I was already giving him. He sucked my clit into his mouth and groaned like I tasted expensive. Two fingers slid into me without warning, curling, and I clenched around them so hard he made a pleased sound against me."That's it. Soak my face. I want my mouth dripping with you."He fucked me with his fingers and sucked my clit in the same rhythm until my thighs shook around his head. I grabbed his hair. He didn't stop. He flattened his tongue and worked me harder, wetter, messier, the sound of it obscene in the quiet cottage."Rook. I'm going to come.""Then come. Right now. On my tongue."I broke with his name tearing out of me. I came on his mouth so hard I soaked his chin, his lips, the stubble on his jaw. He licked me through it, greedy, and only eased off when I twitched and tried to close my thighs.He kissed t

    Murielle's POV He came for me before dawn again, but this time there was no urgency in it, no bells, no guards falling into step around us."Where are we going?" I asked, pulling a cloak over my shoulders while he waited by the door."Nowhere." He said it like the word itself was a gift. "That's the plan. One full day where neither of us has to be anything but exactly what we are right now."We left through the same servants' stair as always, but instead of the waterfall, he led me further, past the training grounds, past the tree line, until we reached a small clearing I'd never seen before. A cottage half-swallowed by ivy, clearly abandoned for years, but someone, likely him in the hours before dawn, had swept the floor clean and laid a fire ready in the hearth."You built this in a night?""I had help." He lit the fire with a flick of flint, and warmth began to spread through the small space almost immediately. "Soren thinks I've finally lost what little sense I had left, arrangin

  • Broken by My Family, Reclaimed by the Alpha King   Chapter 63

    Murielle's POV I pressed myself against the doorframe just enough to see inside.Alizeh sat in the corner of her own treatment room, wrists bound to the chair with a strip of linen torn from her own bandaging supplies, a knife held loose but ready against her throat by a woman I'd seen a hundred times without ever once looking at properly. Greying hair pulled back plain. Hands that had wrung out cloths and swept floors in that wing for as long as I'd been recovering there. A face built for being overlooked."You." The word left me before I'd meant to say it.The woman's eyes flicked to me, quick and assessing. Her expression didn't change at all, no surprise, no fear, only a kind of patient interest, like I'd walked into a room she'd already accounted for before I arrived."The traitor herself." Her voice stayed calm, almost pleasant, the same tone she'd have used offering someone a second helping of soup. "I wondered when you'd catch up."Rook hadn't moved since the words I'd heard
