POV: WREN THORNE

"You will not get anything more from him than what he already gave you in the corridor," Corin said quietly, watching through the small barred window as Varek sat motionless in the cell that had once held Halric, his composure fully restored now, unbothered by capture in a way that unsettled me more than any struggle would have.

I stood beside her, exhaustion pulling at every muscle I had used in the fight an hour ago, though sleep felt impossible with the manor still humming w

  • Forbidden Under the Blood Moon   chapter 250

    POV: KADE ASHBORN"There is one more thing you need to see before we finish planning anything," Selene said, her voice carrying a hesitation I had not heard from her since the night she first uncovered the ledger's eleven names.Dawn had fully broken by then, pale light finally reaching the war room windows, though exhaustion still clung to every corner of the manor like smoke that refused to clear. Wren sat beside me, her hand resting loosely in mine, and I felt her attention sharpen instantly at Selene's tone, the same instinct that had guided her through this entire impossible night rising once more to meet whatever came next."Show us," Wren said.Selene slid a single folded paper across the table, separate from the ledger, something she had clearly been holding back until she found the right moment to reveal it. "I found this tucked inside Varek's quarters, beneath a floorboard Ronan's guards nearly missed. It is not a name this time. It is a date."I unfolded the paper carefully

    POV: WREN THORNE"You will not get anything more from him than what he already gave you in the corridor," Corin said quietly, watching through the small barred window as Varek sat motionless in the cell that had once held Halric, his composure fully restored now, unbothered by capture in a way that unsettled me more than any struggle would have.I stood beside her, exhaustion pulling at every muscle I had used in the fight an hour ago, though sleep felt impossible with the manor still humming with the aftermath of attack, guards doubling patrols, Selene cross referencing every name Varek's associates might lead her toward before dawn forced everyone to face this day's consequences properly. "He wanted to be caught," I said slowly, the realization settling uncomfortably as I studied Varek's stillness through the bars. "Everything about tonight, the timing, the retreat, even this. He is exactly where Corvyn intended him to end up.""A message delivered in a cell, the same as Halric was,

  • Forbidden Under the Blood Moon   chapter 248

    POV: KADE ASHBORN"They are inside the eastern wall," Ronan shouted, and I was already moving before the words had fully left him, every exhausted hour of this night burning away instantly beneath a surge of pure, focused adrenaline.The manor had erupted into controlled chaos, guards moving in formations Ronan had drilled into them across years of preparation neither of us had wanted to need this badly, and I found Wren already at the top of the eastern stairwell, dressed and alert despite having slept perhaps an hour since our conversation in the corridor, Corin standing close beside her with an expression sharpened into something far more dangerous than the careful stillness she had worn since arriving."How many," I asked, falling into step beside them as we moved toward the source of the commotion."Six that Ronan's scouts have counted so far," Corin said. "Moving with training, not desperation, which means Corvyn sent people who expected to succeed tonight, not simply people wil

  • Forbidden Under the Blood Moon   chapter 247

    POV: WREN THORNE"There is something I did not tell you in the training yard," Corin said, before I had even finished crossing the room toward her, her voice carrying the particular weight of someone who had spent hours deciding whether a confession was worth the cost of making it.I had come to find her alone, unable to sleep despite the exhaustion pulling at every part of me, needing answers before Ronan's doubled guard settled around my quarters and made this conversation impossible to have privately. Corin stood near the study window, the same silver threading through her hair catching moonlight the way it had the first night I met her, and I recognized, watching her now, an expression I had not seen on her before. Fear."Tell me now," I said, echoing the words Kade had used with Ivy hours earlier, though I did not yet know that, the phrase simply arriving from somewhere instinctive, some understanding that tonight had become a night for confessions no one had wanted to make until

  • Forbidden Under the Blood Moon   chapter 246

    POV: KADE ASHBORN"Varek is gone," Ronan said, breathless from the stairs, before either of us had fully stepped back from the moment we had just shared. "Not fled. Gone. His quarters are empty, his scent trail ends at the eastern wall, and there is no sign anyone forced him to leave."I felt Wren's hand tighten around mine, the warmth of a moment ago replaced instantly by the cold, practiced alertness we had both learned to summon on command over the last week. "He knew we found the ledger," I said, though it was not truly a question."He must have," Ronan said. "Which means someone warned him, someone who knew Selene and I had recovered it from Halric's quarters before we had even finished reading it ourselves."Selene appeared behind him, the ledger still clutched against her chest like something she could not bring herself to set down anywhere unguarded. "I have not told anyone outside this floor," she said quickly, defensively, though no one had accused her yet. "Not the other co

  • Forbidden Under the Blood Moon   chapter 245

    POV: WREN THORNE"I am carrying our child," I said, the words leaving me all at once, faster than I meant them to, before fear could talk me into softening them into something smaller.Kade went utterly still in front of me, the corridor around us seeming to hold its breath along with him, and for a moment I could not read anything on his face at all, no joy, no fear, simply a stillness so complete it frightened me more than any reaction I had imagined while rehearsing this moment alone in the dark these last few days."How long have you known," he asked finally, his voice quiet, careful, the voice of a man testing whether the ground beneath him was solid enough to stand on yet."Three days," I admitted. "I wanted to be certain before I told you, and then Aldric died, and then Halric, and there was never a moment that felt like it belonged to anything but grief and strategy, and I was afraid that if I told you in the middle of all of it, this would simply become one more crisis for yo
