The observation room is cold.

Air leaks through the vent, raising goosebumps on my skin—

even with Cade and River pressed close on either side of me.

Cade’s hand rests at the small of my back.

River’s shoulder brushes mine.

Heat.

Solid.

Certain.

Through the reinforced glass, the faction leader slumps in a steel chair.

Wrists cuffed.

Ankles locked.

Shifter restraints.

His face is wrecked—split lip, swollen eye, blood dried along his jaw like war paint.

He’s awake.

Waiting.

Rose stirs under my sk

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    Where the Real Power Lies

    "They chose you," I said. "All of you. River. Cade. Josylyn's mate. Elara's. Mara's." The thought had been building since Josiah said it and I needed to say it out loud to hear how it landed. "Our father arranged it. Maybe Korr was part of it too. The organization, or something adjacent to it, or just — men who thought they were managing something larger than themselves."The silence in the car had weight."All of my sisters," I said slowly. "Josylyn. Elara. Mara." I let the shape of it settle. "Their matings were chosen. Arranged. The trials, the selections, the bonds that followed — our father's hand was in all of it."River was very still."But not yours," Cade said quietly. He wasn't asking."Not mine." And there it was — the thing that had been sitting underneath the cold dread, small and stubborn and warm. "I was the one who wasn't chosen. The trials I passed weren't rigged. The bond that formed wasn't engineered." I looked at River. Then at Cade. "You two are the only thing in

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    The Destroyer’s Voice

    Laney POV My sister's pack home was beautiful. We now stood in the Alpha's meeting room flanked by soldiers. It did not keep me from speaking in direct tones. "Where do you actually work, Alpha Josiah?" River asked. "Who do you really work for?""Careful, young bloods." His voice dropped to a low, deliberate tone. "This is my pack, and my first priority. You are still addressing an Alpha."Laney spoke up. "And I am also an Alpha — with a Destroyer wolf who can command." She let that settle before continuing. "I am not my sister Mara. I don't use that power lightly. But I will if I have to. I don't take kindly to threats."Cade glanced behind them. Josiah's soldiers had begun closing in, tightening into a circle at their backs, slow and quiet the way wolves move when they want you to feel surrounded before you realize it."River," Cade said softly."Yup," River answered. "I see it."Laney spoke again, and this time something rose in her voice she hadn't consciously put there — somet

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    THE SAFE HOUSE

    Sirus was in the kitchen when I arrived, sitting at the table with a coloring book spread in front of him. Four years old and already carrying the weight of knowing his mother was gone. He looked up when I walked in, and his whole face changed—lit up like I'd brought the sun with me."Laney!" He scrambled down from his chair and ran straight for my legs.I scooped him up, held him against my chest. He was small. Warm. Real in a way nothing else had been since Korr hit the ground."Hey, baby," I said quietly."You came back." He wrapped his arms around my neck. "You always come back.""Always," I confirmed.We sat back down at the table, and I let him show me his drawings—a wolf, a house, something that might have been a tree. I made appropriate sounds of appreciation while my mind was already three moves ahead, already calculating what Josiah knew and what he was hiding.But I stayed present for him. That was the deal I'd made with myself."Laney?" His voice was smaller now. Uncertain

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    Bad Intentions

    The kitchen stayed quiet for a long moment after Elara's words landed.Please don't let them take my child.I had spent the last ten years building walls between myself and my half-sister — brick by careful brick, mortared with her silences and her father's cruelty and the way she'd looked through me at family gatherings like I was a smudge on expensive glass. I had built those walls very well.They were doing nothing useful right now."Cade," I said."Already on it." He was typing before I finished his name. "I'm pulling Wren off the northern rotation. East border cabin, prepped within the hour.""Not the one near the Sirus checkpoint. The other one. The old well."He looked up. Understood. Nodded.The cabin by the old well sat within Iron Fang's borders but outside the circuit of anyone connected to Sirus or the mountain-hill survivors. It didn't appear in patrol schedules because I'd made sure of it. It would do."You'll be safe," I told Elara. "Two guards. They won't know who you a

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    Listen to My Heart

    Elara looked like hell.I had never once, in my entire life, seen my half-sister look like hell. Elara was the polished one, the Luna who ruled Silverpine with a manicured everything and a mate who agreed with her in public and — I had always assumed — in private. The woman standing in the rain outside the Iron Den bar was unrecognizable. Her polish is gone. Her coat was soaked through. Her hair hung in ropes. "Laney." Her voice cracked on my name. "Please. Before anyone calls Silverpine. Before they find out where I am."Cade and River stayed half a step behind me, and through the bond I felt them both do the same thing I was doing — sweep the treeline, the road, the dark beyond the parking lot lights. Rose pushed against the inside of my skin, hackles up."No one followed her," Rose said after a moment. "Or no one she knows about.""Inside," I said. "Not the main hall. Around back through the kitchen."Iron Den's old kitchen was stone-walled and windowless, with exactly one door,

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    The Price of a Favor

    I read the message three times.Not because I didn't understand it. Because I understood it immediately, completely, the way you understand a trap the moment your foot is already inside it — and some stubborn part of me kept hoping a fourth read would change the words.I got rid of your problem. Now you're going to help me get rid of mine. Time to pay me back, Laney.Unknown number. Of course, it was an unknown number.River felt it first — he always did. The bond between us went taut, a fishing line with something heavy on the end, and he turned from his conversation with Beta Marc mid-sentence, his eyes finding mine across the hall. Cade was slower by half a heartbeat, but only because Cade was never slow, just deliberate. He set down the cup of coffee someone had pressed into his hand and crossed the room like the floor belonged to him."What?" River said. Not a question. River didn't ask questions when he could feel the answer pressing against his ribs through me.I turned the pho

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    Bloodline Betrayal

    The pregnancy test sat on the edge of the infirmary sink like it was waiting for me to deal with it.I was not dealing with it.I was rinsing my mouth for the fourth time in an hour, conducting a calm and rational inventory of everything I was responsible for.One war. Actively in progress.Three p

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    The Morning After

    I made it to the bathroom on my hands and knees.That felt important to establish. I had held a battle line for forty minutes against Mara's forces twelve hours ago. I had fought until my lungs burned and my wolf ran hot, and the second wave broke and pulled back into the smoke. I had stood at the

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    Hold The Line

    Something was wrong before the siren ever sounded.I'd felt it since morning — that particular pressure at the base of my skull that I'd learned the hard way to stop dismissing. Not anxiety. Not nerves. Something older than both of those things, sitting in the back of my wolf like a held breath.We

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    Blood and Borders

    Alpha Tomas of Moss Thorn Pack sat across the table from us and looked like a man who had been waiting a long time for a conversation he hadn't known he was allowed to have.He was literally aging before our eyes, carrying the heavy weight of being alpha and sharing a northern border with my sister
