POV: Evana

The emergency summons arrived before breakfast.

I was still at the long dining table when a messenger walked in carrying a sealed parchment, marked with the Alpha Council’s symbol pressed into dark wax.

He didn’t look at me. He looked straight at Arthur.

“Alpha, the council requires your presence.”

Arthur broke the seal and read it, his expression shifting the further down the page he got.

“What is it?” I asked.

He folded the parchment. “An emergency gathering.”

“About what?”

His eye

  • HE CALLED HER PLUMP, NOW HE’LL BEG TO KEEP HER   Chapter 18: The Betrayal

    POV: ArthurI had spent my entire life believing the Alpha Council existed to protect the pack.Tonight, I realized I might have been wrong.The guard was found before dawn.My warriors cornered him near the eastern boundary while he was attempting to leave the territory.He fought.Not well enough.By the time I entered the interrogation room, his hands were bound behind his back.His face was bruised.His eyes remained fixed on the floor.I recognized him immediately.He was the same guard Evana had described.The same man who had stood behind Elder Corwin during the council meeting.I closed the door behind me.Evana wanted to come.I had refused.Not because I believed she was weak.I had finally learned better than that.I refused because if the person behind the attack discovered that Evana was investigating with me, they might strike again.My Beta stood beside the table.“He was carrying a council-issued blade.”I looked at the guard.“Who ordered you to attack my mate?”The g

  • HE CALLED HER PLUMP, NOW HE’LL BEG TO KEEP HER   Chapter 17: The Attack

    POV: EvanaI woke up because something was wrong.Not because of a sound.Not because of movement.Because my wolf was screaming.My eyes snapped open, and for one terrifying second, I couldn’t see anything except darkness.Then the moonlight shifted through the curtains.A figure stood beside my bed.Tall.Masked.Still.My heart slammed against my ribs.My wolf surged forward before fear could paralyze me.I rolled off the bed just as a blade came down.It sliced through the pillow where my head had been.I landed hard on the floor and kicked upward, catching the attacker’s wrist.The blade flew from his hand.He staggered.I didn’t wait.I grabbed the edge of the bedside table and swung it toward him.He blocked it with his forearm, but the impact forced him backward.For a moment, we stared at each other.His face was covered, but I could see his eyes.Cold.Focused.Not the eyes of someone who had come to frighten me.He had come prepared to kill me.My wolf snarled inside my che

  • HE CALLED HER PLUMP, NOW HE’LL BEG TO KEEP HER   Chapter 16: Not Your Prisoner

    POV: EvanaThe first guard reached for my arm.I stepped back. “Don’t.”He stopped. The chamber went silent around us.I looked at him. Then at the elders. Then at Arthur.Nobody was going to move me like some animal they’d finally managed to corner.“I said no.”The council member frowned. “You don’t understand the danger you’re in.”“I understand it perfectly.” I looked him dead in the eye. “You’re afraid of me.”“That isn’t the issue.”“It is.” I took a step forward. “You don’t want to protect me. You want to control me.”Murmurs rippled through the chamber. The elder raised his voice over them. “You are an untrained Moon-Blood.”“And I’m still a person.”“You could lose control of your abilities.”“Then teach me.”That silenced him.“Teach me what I am,” I said. “Teach me how to control my wolf. Teach me how to use whatever strength I have. But don’t lock me away because you’re afraid of what I might become.”“You are being emotional.”I almost laughed. “Of course I’m emotional. I

  • HE CALLED HER PLUMP, NOW HE’LL BEG TO KEEP HER   Chapter 15: The Last Moon Blood

    POV: Evana The word stayed in the air long after Marlowe spoke it.Moon-Blood.I’d heard it before, in the old book, in my dreams, in the whispers that had followed me since my eyes first turned silver. But hearing it from the oldest member of the Alpha Council made it real in a way none of that had.Too real.I looked around the chamber. Nobody laughed. Nobody questioned whether I’d imagined it. They all knew. Everyone in this room seemed to know something about me that I didn’t.“What does that mean?” My voice came out smaller than I wanted.Marlowe studied me. “It means your mother belonged to one of the oldest Luna bloodlines in werewolf history.”“My mother?” My mother had been a healer. Ordinary hands, ordinary remedies, ordinary quiet grief that never explained itself.“She was both.”“She never told me.”“She couldn’t.”“Why?”He exchanged a glance with the other elders, then sighed like the answer cost him something. “Because your mother spent most of her life hiding what s

That word didn’t belong in the same sentence as the council. They’d spent a year ignoring me entirely, no seat at meetings, no consultation on pack matters, expected to stay in the manor like something decorative whenever Arthur met with the elders.Now, suddenly, they wanted me there.That alone told me something was wrong.“Why do they want me?”Arthur’s jaw tightened before he answered. “Because they know.”“Know what?”He lowered his voice. “

  • HE CALLED HER PLUMP, NOW HE’LL BEG TO KEEP HER   Chapter 13: Silver Eyes

    POV: ArthurThe moment her eyes turned silver, my wolf went completely still.Not calm. Still, the way a room goes still when something older and far more dangerous than you walks into it.Silver eyes.I’d read those words before. Not in any pack record, not in anything ordinary. In my father’s private journals, in a passage I’d read once and never let myself think about again.“When the Moon-Blood awakens, the eyes shall carry the color of the moon itself.”My stomach dropped.No. It couldn’t be.I’d spent a year telling myself Evana was an ordinary wolf who happened to be my Luna who is fat. I’d been wrong. Completely, dangerously wrong.She looked frightened. Not weak, she was never weak, not anymore, maybe not ever. Frightened because she didn’t understand what was happening inside her own body.I took a step toward her. She stepped back immediately.That hurt more than it should have.Mate, my wolf snarled, wanting to close the distance, to pull her in and put myself between her
