I Become The Villainess In A Werewolf Romance Novel The door that was mine
By the third morning, Gideon had stopped pretending he was well.He did not say it. He simply stopped hiding it. I found him in the corridor outside my door each dawn, sitting on the stone floor with his back against the wood. His shirt hung looser each day, and the shadows under his eyes had deepened to bruises. Every morning he stood like a man lifting something heavy and asked the same thing."Did you sleep?""Better than you.""That is not hard."It was the only joke either of us made. By the fourth day, even that had stopped.I counted the days in the margins of Amelia's journal. Seven days, the Council had said. Four gone. Three left.And I was no closer to an answer.---On the fifth day, Camille tried to ruin me.It happened in the great hall at midday, in front of half the pack. A maid screamed. A silver comb was missing from the high table, a Moonblood heirloom older than the kee
I Become The Villainess In A Werewolf Romance Novel What the book forgot
The third board by the hearth was loose.I waited until Calista had gone to help Bram with the horses. Then I knelt on the dusty stones, wedged my fingernails into the seam, and lifted. It came up with a sigh of old pine.Underneath lay a tin box, the kind that once held tea, and the faded paint on the lid was my own favorite brand.I stopped breathing for one second. Then I opened it.A leather purse, heavy with gold. A silver ring of keys. A folded map of the northern border, marked in small slanted writing. And on top of everything lay a single yellow sticky note, bright and sharp-edged, without a speck of dust on it, as if it had been placed there a minute ago.I did not touch it at first. I only stared at the tidy block letters, in a hand I had used every day of my life.*Build somewhere that is yours. Start with the ones the book forgot.**P.S. Check the cellar.*The curved flourish sat in the corner.

I hid the journal inside my dress before we left the tower.Calista did not ask why. She only looked at the green leather corner pressing against my ribs, then at Joren's broad back on the stairs ahead of us, and she said nothing at all. I decided right then that I liked her.I also decided I could not trust her. Not yet. Not with this."The Alpha will want a report," Joren said at the bottom of the stairs."Dust," I said. "And a very old mug."He looked at me for a long moment. Then he shrugged. He was a guard, not a poet, and I was a villain. Nobody expected me to be honest.---By noon the whole castle knew about the tea.I could feel it. Servants stopped talking when I passed. A boy carrying firewood nearly dropped it. A cook made a small sign over her heart, which I took to be a very bad omen.
I Become The Villainess In A Werewolf Romance Novel Bitter Under the Honey
I did not drink the tea.I set the cup down so slowly that the silver did not click against the table. Then I sat very still and listened to my own heartbeat.Chapter nine. In the book, the woman in the gray dress had taken one sip, smiled, and complimented the honey. Three paragraphs later she was dead on the floor, and the story moved on without her.But chapter nine was supposed to happen weeks from now. And that woman was not supposed to be me."The script is moving," I whispered. "Someone is moving it."I looked at the tray. Bread. Cheese. Soup. All of it harmless, probably. All of it brought by a girl who would not meet my eyes.I pushed the tray away, walked to the door, and knocked."My lady?" a guard answered. It was the same deep voice from earlier, but it had lost its swagger. The Alpha's order had reached him.

The door would not open.I tried it twice. On the third try I pulled hard enough to hurt my shoulder. Nothing. Then a deep voice outside said, "Please step back, my lady."I stopped. "Who is that?""Orders from Miss Winslow. You are to wait here until the Council sends for you.""Miss Winslow does not give orders in this castle.""She does today, my lady."I leaned my forehead against the cold wood. A few hours ago I had been a woman with a plan. Now I was a woman in a locked room with a broken cup, a cruel rival, and a dying Alpha who would not let me go.I went to the window. Two guards in gray cloaks now stood on the lawn between the arch and the lake, arms crossed. A third paced the shore.Gideon had meant what he said.I sank onto the window seat and tried not to scream.They came for me at sunset.It was the maid from the morning, the one with the round face. Her eyes were still red. Behind her stood two guards who would not look at me."I am Calista, my lady," she whispered, pr
I Become The Villainess In A Werewolf Romance Novel The Heroine Is Not Who She Thought
The hall did not break into noise until Gideon left.He went out through a side door with Silas, shoulders stiff, jaw tight. Before the door closed, he looked back at me once. It was a short look, but it said very clearly, do not run.Then the whole pack started whispering at once.I stood on the red carpet in my wet boots and gray cloak, with hundreds of eyes burning holes in my skin, and tried to remember how to breathe."Come with me," Tessa said softly. "I will show you somewhere to rest.""I already have a room.""Not a good one." She slipped her arm through mine like we were old friends. "Smile a little. They are watching."I smiled. It felt like a crack running across glass.She led me out through a side door and down a long corridor lined with narrow windows. Ahead, a woman in a pale green dress leaned against the wall with her arms crossed. I recognized her from the hall, the one who had smiled behind her hand. She had golden hair, red lips, and a beauty that looked sharpened
