Cole's POV

By morning, the entire estate felt wrong.

The halls were too quiet, the patrols too tense, and every wolf who passed me quickly lowered their eyes. No one needed to ask if I had found Lyra. They already knew I had not.

I had not slept. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her silver wolf standing between me and the rogues before she ran, leading them away because I was injured.

She had saved my life, and now she was missing.

In my father's study, Kalen, Carlos, the patrol leaders, and

  • Hunting The Alpha’s Heart   The Ashwood Heir

    Lyra’s POVMy body trembled for a moment., but I refused to let Darko see it. His mismatched eyes remained fixed on mine, crimson and violet glowing beneath the firelight, and I hated that part of me wanted to look away because I knew that was exactly what he wanted.He wanted me to be afraid enough to obey.Darko released a slow breath and stepped away from me. “You have made this harder than it needed to be, Lyra.”I pulled against the guard’s hold on my arms. “Then let me go.”“You are still giving orders as though you have any power here.” Darko moved toward the fireplace, his back facing me. “If you follow my orders, everything will go smoothly.”My eyes narrowed. “Your orders?”He looked over his shoulder, the fire casting shadows across his face. “I am angry that you failed your mission. I sent Cain to raise you away from the Ashwood pack, to keep you hidden until the right time, and to make sure you would be useful when I needed you.”My entire body went still.Cain had not si

  • Hunting The Alpha’s Heart   The Eyes Of An Ashwood

    Lyra’s POVThe word niece made my stomach turn.I stood in the center of the study with my wrists bound behind my back and the wolfsbane collar burning against my throat. The fire crackled softly in the hearth, filling the room with warmth that did nothing to stop the cold spreading through my body.This man was my father’s brother. He had my family’s name and Ashwood blood in his veins, yet he had destroyed everything my father had tried to protect.“You are not my family,” I said.Darko’s smile did not disappear. “You have your father’s temper.”“Do not speak about him.”“I knew John better than anyone.” He moved closer, his steps slow and calm across the wooden floor. “He was always too righteous and too stubborn. He believed being kind made him strong.”My hands clenched behind my back.“He was strong,” I said. “Stronger than you will ever be.”For the first time, something dark flashed across Darko’s face.“You know nothing about strength, Lyra.”“I know you had my parents killed

  • Hunting The Alpha’s Heart   The Wolfsbane Collar

    Lyra's POVI followed Caitlin's scent through the eastern corridor, my silver paws striking the floor as smoke curled through the mansion behind me.One of the enemy rogues was carrying her toward the servants' exit. Caitlin struggled against him, tears streaking down her cheeks as she reached one hand toward me."Lyra!"A growl tore from Lana's throat. I raced after them and leaped just as the rogue reached the open doorway. My body slammed into his side, throwing him hard against the wall.Caitlin slipped from his arms and hit the ground, but she quickly pushed herself up."Run!" I told her through the mind link. "Hide somewhere safe!"Caitlin stared at me for one terrified second before turning and running away from the fighting.I faced the rogue again, ready to tear him apart before he could follow her.Then Caitlin screamed."Lyra!"I turned sharply.Another rogue had appeared behind her. He seized Caitlin around the waist before she could reach the safety of the mansion and lif

  • Hunting The Alpha’s Heart   Taken

    Cole's POVThe explosion shook the mansion so violently that dust drifted from the ceiling and shattered glass trembled across the floor. My wolf wanted to chase the man with mismatched eyes through the corridor and tear him apart before he could disappear into the smoke, but another scent reached me beneath the ash and blood.Caitlin's fear.I turned toward the place where she had stood beside Mother and Freya only moments earlier, but Caitlin was gone."Caitlin?" My voice came out as a growl.Mother's face had gone white. Freya stood beside her with one hand pressed to her mouth while Carla searched the broken dining hall with frantic eyes."She was here," Mother said. "She was right beside me."A cold rage spread through my chest. I scanned the room, forcing myself to ignore the injured rogues, the guards struggling to regain control of the mansion, and the smoke curling through the shattered doorway.Then I saw Lyra's silver wolf racing through the eastern corridor. She had follow

  • Hunting The Alpha’s Heart   Hunting The Ashwood Heir

    Lyra’s POVThe mansion was under attack. The voice outside had cut through the darkness with such cold certainty that every part of me went numb when it rang through the hall.“Bring us the Ashwood heir.”They had come for me, and Cole stepped in front of me before I could even take a breath. His body shielded mine from the broken doors and the growls echoing through the mansion halls. His hand reached back blindly until it found mine, and his fingers closed around mine with such force that I knew he was fighting to remain calm.But I could feel the rage rolling through him.“Stay behind me,” he said, his voice low and almost a growl.Another crash shook the mansion. Somewhere near the front entrance, glass shattered across the floor, followed by claws scraping against polished stone.Caitlin cried out softly, and Cecilia pulled her close at once while Freya moved nearer to them, her face pale but determined. Carlos, Clark, and Carla had already shifted their positions around the tabl

  • Hunting The Alpha’s Heart   Rivals And Friends

    Cole's POVFor several moments, I could only look at Lyra. The soft green dress made her eyes seem brighter beneath the warm glow of the candles, and the silver clips in her hair caught the light whenever she turned her head. But it was not the dress that held my attention. It was the way she looked around the dining hall, as though she still could not believe this place had made room for her.Lyra had spent years believing she had nowhere to belong. Cain had taken her from her home, buried the truth of her bloodline, and raised her to think she was nothing more than an ordinary girl with no place in our world. Darko had wanted to turn her into a weapon before she had the chance to understand who she was, yet tonight she sat beneath the Ashwood crest with her hand in mine, surrounded by people who wanted her here.She looked as though she belonged.My father remained standing at the head of the table, his glass still raised as everyone settled after the toast. His gaze moved to the As
