"I have connections that could help you track Derek's money," he says simply, the words dropping into the silence between us like stones into still water.

The statement hits me with unexpected force, not because I'm surprised he knows about my investigation—Lucas has always been perceptive beyond w

    “Can I tell you a secret?” he asks, voice so soft it nearly disappears into the hiss of the rain. I nod, not trusting myself to speak. “I don’t want to run anymore,” he says. “I want to be somewhere, with someone, and not feel like I’m always one step away from losing everything.” It’s too much,

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 206

    We sit like that for a long time, hands a breath apart, the space between us humming with everything we’re not saying. The dessert menu appears at some point, but we don’t even open it. I want to touch him, to see if the world will come back into focus when our skin finally meets. But I hold back,

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 205

    Lucas drops his voice to a near-whisper. “You ever wish you could go back and do it differently?” I want to say no, that regret is for the weak, but the lie would be too obvious. “Sometimes,” I say, rolling the word on my tongue. “Mostly I wish I could go back and tell myself not to care so much wh

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 204

    Lucas draws a small circle on the tablecloth with the base of his glass. “You know, I used to think I had you figured out.” I cock an eyebrow. “And now?” He tilts the glass, watching the red pool at the bottom. “Now I think I’m just getting started.” I want to tell him he’s not wrong, that no one

    The waitress arrives—young, with sharp features and a way of standing that reminds me of field mice on alert. She recites the specials in a monotone, but Lucas pays close attention, even as his eyes drift back to me at the end of each sentence. I order something off-menu, just to see if she’ll flinc

    The following night, the rain starts in earnest on the walk over, turning the city into a blur of white noise and hissing tires, every window a dim halo behind its own curtain of water. The bistro is unmarked except for a brass plaque by the door, already beaded with droplets, the letters almost ill

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 10

    I let them watch me as I unfurl into motion, as I take my time, a tigress stretching beneath a lazy sun. The documents make a soft, lethal sound as they hit the glass, echoing back to fill the silence. These papers are my arsenal, my map to the battlefield I will carve from this sterile room. I ar

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 9

    The air thrums with ambition, the kind that leaves marks like teeth on skin. I step into the boardroom, a half dozen pairs of eyes pulling toward me as if gravity's force has just shifted. The glass walls loom like a watchful sky, reflections doubling back on themselves, encasing us in a tower of ou

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 8

    I gather the pieces of myself and leave the office. My own intentions are as fractured as his. I cannot think straight with the scent of him so fresh, so insistent, so much like a promise. The door swings shut behind me, cutting off the warmth and memory of Derek's presence with surgical precision

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 7

    I stiffen, a snarl forming at the back of my throat, before I manage to smooth it into something more civil, more human. This is not what I expected, not what I am prepared for. I should have known. I should have known he'd come. "Mara," his voice drawls, easy and confident, but I hear the challeng
