Alexander The priest was speaking the final words as Carlos was lowered into the ground. “We commit the body of Carlos Cross to the earth, and we commend his spirit to those who came before him. May his name be spoken at the table for as long as the table stands.” Alexander stood near the back of the crowd in a black suit he had not worn in two years. The morning was cold. The cemetery sat on the high ground east of the city, and the wind moved through the trees along the upper path in a way that made the mourners closest to the grave keep one hand on their hats and the other on their coats. Alexander had not put on a hat. He stood with his hands folded in front of him and his head slightly bowed. There were perhaps two hundred people present. Mona stood at the front in a black coat and a black veil, her hand on Victor’s arm. Ethan was not beside them. Alexander had been looking for Ethan in the crowd from the moment he had arrived, and the absence told him the rest. Whateve

The police officers arrived at the Cross estate at quarter past eight in the evening, and Victor received them in the front sitting room while Mona stood in the doorway of the hall still in her robe, having come down when she heard the knock.Carlos had not answered his phone in two days. Mona had known since yesterday morning that something was wrong. She simply had not said it out loud yet.The older officer asked if they could sit. Victor told him to say what he came to say.“Mr. and Mrs. Cross, your son Carlos was found this afternoon in the woods off Highway Twelve, approximately forty miles outside the city,” the officer revealed, his cap held in both hands. “The injuries were consistent with a wolf attack. He was pronounced at the scene. I am very sorry for your loss.”Mona sat down on the nearest chair. She pressed both hands flat against her knees and looked at the floor between the officer’s feet tears running down her cheeks. Victor thanked the officers, walked them to the

Elena Alex walked through the front door and froze at the sight. Elena was on the floor beside Harper with both hands pressed against the side of Harper’s head, her palms soaked through with blood. She was breathing hard and her shoulders were shaking “Elena.” He ran to her side She looked up then. Her face was wet, her hands were trembling against Harper’s temple and she could not make them stop. “What happened?” He crouched beside her “I’m okay,” she said in a shaky voice . “Harper isn’t.” He pressed two fingers against her neck then bent his head close to her mouth. “She’s breathing,” he confirmed. Then he looked up to the messy room. The cracked plaster above the fireplace. The picture frame on the floor. The couch pushed out of place. And then Carlos, on the rug on the other side of the room, face up and still. “Elena. What happened here.” Elena’s hands were still pressed against Harper’s head. She started sobbing and recounted how Carlos attacked her and

Elena opened her eyes as the sunlight through the sheer curtains pierced her vision. She did not recognize the room at first. Then she recalled Alex had brought her here in a daze the night before. “Hey, beautiful.” Alex walked into the bedroom already dressed, with a tray of breakfast in his hand. He set it down on the bed close to her. “You made breakfast this early,” Elena observed while adjusting to sit upright. Alex nodded. Elena smiled. “You still haven’t told me where we are.” “At my grandmother’s. She lived here before she passed. I grew up here most of the time.” Elena looked around. The room was full of antiques. The bedroom looked like it came out of a dreamy novel. “You’re heading out,” she questioned. “Yes. I have a meeting with someone. I will be back as soon as possible.” He walked to her side and kissed her forehead. Elena held onto his hand and rubbed the veins along the back of it. “Don’t leave me for too long.” “Make sure you get to schoo

Elena Elena had been awake since five in the morning, and by ten she had paced the entire house many times over Only Harper had stayed home from class to be with her. Harper had brought her toast that morning, which Elena had not eaten. Harper had offered her a sweater an hour later, which Elena had refused without looking at her. Harper was at the kitchen table now with her laptop open, writing the same paragraph into a paper. Elena could see the cursor on the screen had not moved in five minutes. Harper was staying close in case Elena needed something. The kettle began to whistle on the stove. Elena’s shoulders went rigid. The whistle climbed, and the wolf came up with the sound, so fast before Elena could think. Her hand was resting on the back of the couch. The wolf surfaced, and her fingers closed on the upholstery and tore the fabric down to the frame. Harper’s eyes widened “Elena, what happened to your hand. Are you okay.” Elena did not answer. She stared at her

Mrs. Cross arrived at the house at quarter past two in the afternoon, and Vivian received her in the front sitting room. A small silver tray of coffee and shortbread had been set out between the two armchairs. Vivian had chosen the ivory blouse that morning, the one that photographed well, out of habit more than intention.“Thank you for coming,” Vivian remarked pleasantly, gesturing toward the armchair across from her.“Your message was very direct,” Mrs. Cross replied, settling into the chair and placing her handbag carefully on her lap. She did not reach for the coffee.Vivian spoke first“I want her destroyed, Mrs. Cross,” Vivian remarked, her voice pleasant and her hands folded in her lap. “I want that said plainly before anything else passes between us. I want her reputation finished. I want every woman in this city who has ever smiled at me across a dinner table to know exactly what kind of girl she is. I want her without allies, without her father’s protection, without the goo
