POV: Evana

I 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 h

  • HE CALLED HER PLUMP, NOW HE’LL BEG TO KEEP HER   Chapter 19: His Mother’s warning

    POV: ArthurI found my mother in the old Alpha wing.She stood beside the window, staring into the darkness beyond the pack grounds.For years, that room had belonged to my father.For years, I had avoided entering it because every corner reminded me of him.Tonight, I didn’t care.I pushed the door open.She didn’t turn.“You knew.”My mother’s shoulders stiffened.I stepped inside and closed the door behind me.“You knew about Evana.”She remained silent.“You knew what she was before I did.”Still nothing.My wolf growled beneath my skin.“I asked you a question.”My mother finally turned.Her expression was tired.“You shouldn’t be investigating this.”“That’s not an answer.”“Arthur…”“No.”I walked toward her.“You knew someone wanted her gone. You knew the council was watching her. You knew my father had records about her bloodline.”My voice cracked with anger.“And you said nothing.”She looked away.“I was trying to protect you.”I laughed bitterly.“Protect me?”“Yes.”“By

  • 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 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

  • HE CALLED HER PLUMP, NOW HE’LL BEG TO KEEP HER   Chapter 14: The Council Knows

    POV: EvanaThe 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 eyes came up to mine. “Us.”My stomach dropped.Us. 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. “
