HIS SURROGATE, HER ALPHA KING The weapon
"Unmake a bond," I repeated. "What does that actually mean?"Edmund kept his hands folded on the table and his voice even, the way you speak to someone you're not sure can hold the weight of what you're about to give them. I recognized the approach. I had used it myself more times than I could count at patients' bedsides.I let him know with my expression that I could hold it.He adjusted slightly. A pack bond is not just loyalty. It is a biological and spiritual connection, Alpha to wolf, wolf to pack, that creates hierarchy, shared strength, coordinated instinct. It is what makes a pack function as a unit rather than a collection of individuals. He paused. Your bloodline carries the ability to sever that connection. Not weaken it. Sever it completely and permanently."Like cutting a wire," I said.Like pulling a root. The whole structure above it loses its foundation.I looked at Cael. He was standing at the edge of the table with his arms crossed and his expression neutral, but his
HIS SURROGATE, HER ALPHA KING Simultaneous
How bad? Cael said into his phone.I was already texting Rosie. Stay in the break room. Do not move for any reason. Lena is coming.Cael's voice stayed flat but his free hand closed into a fist at his side. Which team member? How long ago. A pause. "Lock down the east wing and don't touch anything until I'm back."He ended the call and looked at me. In the space of thirty seconds his expression had shifted into something I hadn't seen from him before. Not panic. Something colder and more focused than panic, the look of a man who had just confirmed a thing he'd been bracing for.The team member who's down, I said. How bad?"Unconscious. Breathing." His jaw was tight. "They used something chemical. Fast-acting. He went down without a sound which is why it took twenty minutes to find him."They came through the east wing while we were out.While we were all out. Lena at the hospital, me driving you, most of the senior security at their posts outside the perimeter. He was already moving t
HIS SURROGATE, HER ALPHA KING Rosie
"Which ward?" I asked.Lena checked her phone. "Pediatric overflow. Your usual floor. The person asked for you by full name and said they were your cousin."I don't have a cousin.I know.I was already moving down the hallway toward the front of the house. Cael fell into step beside me without being asked, which I had stopped being surprised by.I need to call Rosie, I said. She works that floor on Tuesdays.Ella. His voice had that particular weight it got when he was about to say something I wasn't going to like. You're not going to the hospital.Rosie is there. She doesn't know any of this is happening and someone just walked onto her floor looking for me. I already had my phone out. I'm calling her first and then we're figuring out how to get her out of there without causing a scene.He didn't argue. That was one thing I was learning about him, he picked his battles with the same deliberateness he applied to everything else. When he pushed back it meant something. When he didn't,
HIS SURROGATE, HER ALPHA KING What the letter said
Read me the rest of it, Cael said.Not a demand. The way you'd say it to someone standing at the edge of something high, steady and quiet, come back from there.I looked down at the page.My mother's handwriting covered both sides in her tight, careful script, the kind she used when she was writing something she needed to get exactly right. She had written letters the same way she made decisions, slowly, deliberately, with every word placed like it had been considered twice before it was set down.I read out loud.She had met my father when she was twenty-three. His name was Daniel Crane, a name I had grown up with attached to the story that he had simply left, packed a bag one morning when I was four and Theo was one and never come back. That was the story she had told us. That was the story I had believed for twenty-three years.The truth was that he had been taken in the night. Three men at the door of their rental house in Bend, Oregon. He had told her to take us to her sister's,
HIS SURROGATE, HER ALPHA KING Not Aldric's people
"Who were they?" I asked.Cael was already pulling into traffic, one hand on the wheel, the other holding the phone back to his ear. "Lena. Status."I couldn't hear her side but I watched his face and read it the way I'd learned to read monitors in the ICU, not the numbers themselves but the direction they were moving."Hold them," he said. "Don't release them until I'm there." He ended the call and looked at me once, fast. "Two men. They came through the east tree line on foot, no vehicle on the road. Lena's team stopped them before they reached the house."Are they Aldric's?They say they're not.What do they say they are?He was quiet for exactly two seconds, which with Cael meant something was being weighed carefully before it was handed over.They say they were sent to find you specifically. Not to threaten. To warn. He paused. They said the word bloodline.The inside of the car was very quiet after that.I turned to look out the window at the city moving past and tried to find a
HIS SURROGATE, HER ALPHA KING Dr. Cross
"How did you get this number?" I asked."The same way they got yours," Dr. Cross said. "I have access to patient contact files. I am so sorry. I know that's not enough but I need you to know I am."Cael had already glanced at me once. His eyes were on the road but his attention had shifted entirely to my side of the car, the way a person leans toward a sound without moving their body."Where do you want to meet?" I asked.Somewhere public. Please. Her voice dropped lower. I think I'm being watched. I've felt it for three days. Since I realized what they were planning to do with the information and tried to pull back.""You tried to pull back," I repeated.A pause. I made a mistake. A very serious one. And I need to tell you what I know before I lose the nerve or before they realize I've gone off script.I looked at Cael. He had his eyes on the road and his jaw set in that way that meant he was thinking fast.I put the phone slightly away from my mouth. "She wants to meet. Alone.""No,
