I had barely finished speaking when a deep roar came from the southern side of the territory, followed by the sound of warriors shouting. My body tensed as Gabriel came running back across the road. “We have another breach.”

I tightened my grip around the metal fragment I had taken from the attacker. “Where?”

“The southern boundary. They waited until we moved most of the warriors toward the northern and eastern sides, then sent another group through the woodland.”

“How many?” I asked.

  • His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret    The Last Conspirator

    Knowing that I carried the Silver Moon Wolf did not mean I understood what it meant. The power was still there beneath my skin, quiet now, but impossible to ignore. She was real, and whatever the prophecy had promised or threatened, I knew one thing with certainty: the people who had attacked Silvercrest had not come here by accident. They were afraid of something, and now they knew that fear had a name.Gabriel approached me on the northern road, two guards following behind him. “Alpha, we caught someone.”“From the attack?” I asked.“Yes,” Gabriel said. “He was trying to escape through the western woodland after the others retreated. He was carrying one of the metal discs, and he had this.”Gabriel held out a small leather pouch. Inside was a folded piece of paper, a narrow metal key, and a small disc bearing the broken-circle symbol. My pulse quickened. “Where is he?”“The old storage building.” Said Gabriel.“Take me to him.”

  • His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret    The Silver Wolf Rises

    We continued through the passage until it opened near the old administrative quarter. Several doors had been forced open, and papers lay scattered across the floor. I rushed into the archive room and found the broken cabinet at the far end where my mother’s records were kept.I knelt and pulled a small bundle of papers free from beneath the fallen wood. Damon stood behind me. “They didn’t get them.”“No,” I whispered, looking down at the documents. “They were looking for something specific.”Damon crouched beside me. “Do you know what?”“Not yet.” I said.“We’ll find out.” His words were simple, no promises to fix everything, no claims that he could protect me from every danger just an offer to help. And somehow, that mattered.Outside, the sound of battle began to fade as the attackers retreated once more. “They’re leaving,” I said, rising slowly with the papers against my chest. “They didn’t get what they came for.”Si

    I had barely finished speaking when a deep roar came from the southern side of the territory, followed by the sound of warriors shouting. My body tensed as Gabriel came running back across the road. “We have another breach.”I tightened my grip around the metal fragment I had taken from the attacker. “Where?”“The southern boundary. They waited until we moved most of the warriors toward the northern and eastern sides, then sent another group through the woodland.”“How many?” I asked.“Enough to cause trouble.”Before I could respond, another voice came from behind us. “Then stop standing here and tell me where you need me.”Damon stood at the edge of the road, his dark clothes marked with dust and blood. A shallow cut ran across his cheek, but his eyes were focused. Behind him stood several Shadowfang warriors. I had not expected him to be here. Damon had been in Silvercrest during the recent investigations, but our relationship remained strained. He had questioned me, doubted me, an

  • His Rejected Mate, His Greatest Regret    The Attack on SilverCrest

    They had failed to erase the truth. Now they would have to decide what to do about the daughter who had found the trail they thought was gone.I did not realize how quickly that decision would come until the first alarm bell rang. The sound tore through Silvercrest just after midnight, followed by a second bell from the northern watchtower and then a third from the eastern gate. I was already on my feet when Clara burst into the room. “Alpha, the northern watchtower has sounded the alarm. The guards are reporting movement beyond the border.”I grabbed my cloak and pulled it over my shoulders. “How many?”“They don’t know. The first report said several figures, but the signal from the eastern gate came almost immediately afterward.”My stomach tightened as another alarm sounded from the western side of the territory. “They’re surrounding us,” I said.Clara stared at me. “What are we going to do?”“Wake the council,” I ordered, moving toward the door. “Tell every available warrior to re

    His face lost some of its color. “I was never supposed to see that,” he whispered.He rubbed both hands over his face and leaned back against the wall. “Once or maybe twice. People like me weren’t supposed to know it existed. The black stone was as high as most of us ever reached. We received instructions through intermediaries, carried messages, watched borders, gathered information, moved supplies, and reported what we saw. We knew there were people above the ones giving us orders, but we weren’t told who they were.”“And the mark?” I asked.Corvin stared at the document for several seconds before finally answering. “It belonged to them, some people called them the Keepers. I don’t know whether that was their true name. Different groups used different names, and people like me were never important enough to know which one was correct. What I do know is that they were concerned with old bloodlines, old territories, and the prophecy.”I kept my gaze on

    He rubbed his bound hands together. “That your mother had learned something she was never supposed to discover. Something that could expose people who had spent generations keeping the prophecy buried. They believed that if she continued searching, she would eventually identify the bloodline and bring the prophecy back into the open.”My throat tightened. “Whoever they were, they were afraid of her.”The answer hurt because it sounded exactly like my mother. She had never been someone who walked away simply because powerful people told her to. She had protected Silvercrest until the end, even when the people around her had turned against her.I looked toward the black-stone symbol etched into the metal disc resting on the table outside the chamber. “So the network wasn’t created because of Rowan.”“No, Rowan and Vivianne was only one part of it.” The word settled heavily between us.I took a slow breath. “Then there were people above both of them.” I turned away from Corvin and walked
