Lillo woke to sunlight across the pillows and a body that ached in places she hadn't known could ache.

Bryce sat at the edge of the bed with his back to her, his elbows on his knees and his head low.

"Bryce?"

He turned, and the sadness on his face stopped her from saying anything else.

  • Fated To The Troublemaker   chapter 9

    Lillo woke to sunlight across the pillows and a body that ached in places she hadn't known could ache.Bryce sat at the edge of the bed with his back to her, his elbows on his knees and his head low."Bryce?"He turned, and the sadness on his face stopped her from saying anything else.She tried to sit up and gasped. Her back burned, and every muscle protested. She reached behind her and felt long raised lines across her skin. When she looked down, she saw a deep mark just above her belly button, and when she touched her neck, she found another one there."I'm sorry," Bryce said."For what? What happened?""You don't remember?"Lillo frowned and searched her mind, but nothing came. "I remember leaving the gathering. I wasn't feeling okay. You carried me, and after that..." She shook her head. "There's nothing. What happened?"Bryce was quiet for a moment. "We made love," he said at last. "I couldn't control my wolf, and I hurt you.""Bryce...""I tried to stop him. I couldn't." His vo

    The torches along the ridge had burned low when the sound of heavy pawsteps drew every head toward the path.A white wolf walked into the circle, tall and perfectly white, with silver eyes that caught the torchlight. The pack stepped back to let her through, and murmurs rose from every direction."A white wolf.""I've never seen one.""She's beautiful."Lillo glanced at the wolf once and turned back to Bryce. "Who is that?""Celeste," Bryce said. "The partner my mother chose.""Is she always late?""Apparently."The white wolf crossed the stone and stopped in front of them. A servant rushed forward with a white gown, and she shifted back into a young woman with long dark hair. Celeste took the gown and held her head high."Does my wolf not impress you?" she asked Lillo."Your wolf is nice," Lillo said."Nice?""Good coat. Well fed."Celeste's lips tightened, and she turned to Bryce with a smile. "Alpha King, forgive my late arrival. Isn't this the right moment to claim me as your Luna

    Lillo locked the bedroom door that morning and told the guards no one was to come in, not even the king.Bryce tried anyway. He knocked twice."Lillo, open the door.""I'm fine.""You're not fine. I can hear you.""It's the new moon, Bryce. It will pass.""Let me help you.""You can't." Her voice cracked. "Please. I don't want you to see this."Something heavy hit the floor inside the room, and a long groan followed that ended in a roar. Bryce took hold of the doorknob, then let go, because she had asked him to."I'm not leaving," he said."Bryce...""I'll be right here."He sat on the floor of the hallway with his back against the door and stayed there while the sounds went on. They rose and fell for hours. Twice he stood to break the door down, and twice he made himself sit back down. The nanny brought Lilly by in the afternoon, and when she asked where her almost-mommy was, he told her Lillo wasn't feeling well and needed to rest."Is she sick?""She's working something out.""Can

    The boutique was called Maison Lune, and it looked like the kind of place that charged you for breathing.Silver chandeliers hung over racks of silk and velvet in colors Lillo had only ever seen on butterflies. A tiny woman with pins in her mouth swept toward them the moment the door chimed, took one look at Lillo's borrowed white shirt, and went very pale."Your Majesty," she breathed, curtseying so deeply her knees cracked. "Is this the lady?""The lady needs a wardrobe," Bryce said. "Everything. By tonight.""By tonight? Majesty, a gown takes weeks—""Then show me what takes hours."The woman looked at him, looked at Lillo, and visibly decided not to ask questions. She snapped her fingers, and four assistants appeared out of nowhere like wolves answering a howl.What followed was the longest hour of Lillo's life. She was measured, draped, pinned, and turned in circles while strangers argued over her shoulders and the exact shade of her skin. She was handed a green dress and refused

    The palace still smelled faintly of wet ash the next morning, which Lillo felt was fair.The old cook had spent the night scrubbing his stove, and he glared at her over a tray of breakfast eggs with the cold dignity of a man attending a funeral. She ate every bite. A truce, she decided, was easier than starving.Afterward came the shower, in a marble bathroom bigger than her father's entire kitchen, with water that was actually hot and pressure that could strip paint. She stayed under it far longer than was polite, letting the last of the forest, the soot, and the sprinkler water swirl down the drain.It was only when she stepped out, wrapped in a towel, that she noticed the problem.Her clothes were gone. The maid had taken her sweater "for laundering" the night before and had not returned it, and her denim jacket was presumably already ashes in some furnace. The room she'd woken in on the first day was Bryce's, he had made a point of mentioning, though he had graciously been sleepin

    Bryce had said exactly one thing when Lillo came down from the balcony: "Eat. Rest. We'll talk tomorrow."Then he'd vanished into a war room with his council, leaving her alone in a palace full of silent staff and a very long list of things she didn't trust.The food was at the top of the list.Lillo had grown up learning that a stranger's kindness always came with a leash, and a meal cooked by a stranger's people in a stranger's kitchen was a leash with gravy on it. But by mid-afternoon her stomach was winning the argument. So she slipped down the back stairs, found the kitchen empty between meal services, and made a decision.If she was going to eat in the Alpha King's house, she would eat something she had made herself."Noodles," she told the empty kitchen, hauling a copper pot onto the stove. "How hard can noodles be?""Almost-mommy!"A small whirlwind in a tutu skidded around the corner, one sock missing, a doll tucked under her arm like a football. Somewhere down the hall, a na
