The ride was long. The car rocked with every rut in the road, and the tires ground against frozen gravel that sounded like teeth.

I stared out the window. The landscape of Darius’s territory scrolled past. Green hills, patched farmland, a river I used to walk along when I still believed this was home. It all looked different now. Smaller. Like a dollhouse I’d once lived inside.

I thought about the first time Darius held my hand. We were sixteen. He’d found me alone in the garden behind the

  • Claimed By The Reaper Alpha   #Chapter 15: Blood and Oath

    LYRAHis mouth tasted like blood.Not metaphor. Not memory. Actual blood. He had drunk from the goblet before handing it to me, and now his tongue carried it past my lips with a force that left no room for refusal.The kiss was nothing like I expected. It wasn't tender. It wasn't cruel. It was a claim. His hand pressed against the small of my back, pulling me flush against him. His other hand gripped my jaw, tilting my head, controlling the angle the way a swordsman controls a blade.The blood slipped down my throat. Warm. Metallic. Alive with something that made the mate bond detonate.Heat poured through me. My chest. My stomach. My knees. The mark on my neck blazed so bright I gasped against his mouth. Every nerve in my body screamed in two directions at once. Closer. Run.His scent engulfed me. Pine and smoke and the metallic edge beneath, sharper now, overwhelming. I could feel his heartbeat through his coat. Slow. Steady. He wasn't affected at all. He kissed me the way he did ev

  • Claimed By The Reaper Alpha   #Chapter 14: Before the Throne

    LYRAI lay on the bed and tried not to think about the woman on the stretcher.The mattress was softer than anything I'd ever slept on. The furs smelled like cedar. The fire crackled and threw warm light across a ceiling painted with wolves running through snow.I pulled the pendant from beneath my dress and held it against my cheek. The metal was warm from my skin. Inside, the tiny curl of my son's hair pressed against the glass.I closed my eyes. Through the mindlink, I reached for him. Not words. He was too young for that. Just a feeling. A pulse of warmth, of safety, of I'm here. I didn't know if he could receive it. Newborn mindlinks were fragile things, half-formed and unreliable. But I sent it anyway.Sleep, little one. Mama loves you.The warmth of the bed pulled me under before I could fight it.I dreamed I was holding him. He was bigger, older. He had my dark hair and his father's stubborn chin. He reached for my face and laughed.When I woke, the fire had burned low and pal

    LYRAThe ride was long. The car rocked with every rut in the road, and the tires ground against frozen gravel that sounded like teeth.I stared out the window. The landscape of Darius’s territory scrolled past. Green hills, patched farmland, a river I used to walk along when I still believed this was home. It all looked different now. Smaller. Like a dollhouse I’d once lived inside.I thought about the first time Darius held my hand. We were sixteen. He’d found me alone in the garden behind the orphanage, crying because the other children had called me wolfless freak again. He’d knelt beside me and said, “You’re not a freak. You’re the bravest person I know.”Three years of marriage built on that lie.I thought about the night he proposed. Candlelight. His pack’s sacred grove. He’d put a ring on my finger and told me I was his future. I’d wept with joy. He’d smiled, and I’d believed every part of it.Serena had been waiting in his bed the entire time.The tears came before I could sto

  • Claimed By The Reaper Alpha   Chapter 12: What She Was For

    KAEL"Is this how you seduced Alpha Holt back then?" I said.She tasted like fear.I hadn’t kissed her. I hadn’t planned to. But when I leaned in and dragged the edge of my canine along the mark on her neck, I could taste it anyway. Salt and adrenaline, seeping through her skin like a confession her mouth refused to make.She went rigid beneath my grip. My hand held her chin, tilting her head to expose the crescent scar where my teeth had broken skin five days ago. The mark was healing well. Silver-pink at the edges, still tender at the center. It belonged to me. Every wolf who saw it would know.I ran my tongue along the raised ridge of it, slow, and felt her entire body shudder.Not just fear. Something underneath it. Something she didn’t want me to find.“You know why you’re here,” I said against her throat. My breath warmed her skin. I could feel her pulse hammering against my lips. “You’ll do what you do best.”She didn’t answer. Her hands were fists at her sides.“Warm my bed. B

  • Claimed By The Reaper Alpha   Chapter 11: The Last Time

    KAELShe held the child like it was made of glass.I had seen women hold infants before. Servants, mostly. They held them at arm's length, or close but distracted, eyes flicking to the nearest exit. This was different. She curled around the boy as if her entire body existed to shield him from everything else.Including me.I should have told her to hurry. We had a schedule, and every minute spent in this territory was a minute my enemies could use.But I didn't.I watched her rock the child, and something shifted in my chest. An itch I couldn't scratch. An image I hadn't asked for: her holding a different child. One with my eyes — Our child.Ridiculous.I buried the thought before it could take root. This woman was a liar. A schemer. Every Alpha in Darius's pack confirmed it. She'd spread her legs for half the household, and the performance happening in front of me now was just another act.Except I had never seen anyone act like this. The tears she'd pressed into her son's hair were

  • Claimed By The Reaper Alpha   Chapter 10: A Dilemma

    LYRADarius thought I'd still love him. That was the part that sat in my chest like a splinter.He had walked into my room wearing the face of a man who missed me, and he'd expected me to melt. To cry. To reach for him the way I had during every argument of our marriage, back when I still believed his tenderness was real and his apologies meant anything at all.I wasn't that woman anymore. That woman had been deceived so thoroughly she'd mistaken her cage for a home. The difference wasn't forgiveness. I'd never been weak enough to keep forgiving. The difference was that I'd finally seen the lock.I hadn't slept. My mind kept circling the same three facts: Darius had spread lies. Kael had heard them. And my son was locked in a nursery I couldn't reach.The door opened without warning.Kael Ashvorn filled the frame like a blade cutting through still air. Behind him, Gary lingered in the hallway, his expression carved from stone, but there was something in the set of his mouth. Disdain.
