EMBERLY

Just twenty minutes before Jordan completely lost his mind on the ice, I was standing quietly near the staff benches, diligently logging the lateral speed metrics on my digital tablet. The freezing air was biting aggressively through my oversized hoodie, but I was doing my absolute best to remain entirely invisible.

That plan was completely ruined when the heavy arena doors opened and the Ice Queen herself arrived.

She walked into the stadium like she owned the entire Junylria territory

    EMBERLYMy heavy textbook sat open on the small library desk, its dense pages detailing mid-century European pack economics. The bright screen of my laptop illuminated my tired face in the quiet study room. Just then, my encrypted burner phone suddenly vibrated violently against the wood, a harsh, metallic rattle that sent an immediate shockwave of adrenaline directly through my nervous system. I stared at the screen. The caller ID displayed an unknown string of numbers.Only two people in Junylria possessed this specific contact code.I hit the green button and pressed the plastic shell against my ear, my chest tightening beneath the restrictive binder. "Hello?""Good morning, Emberly," Beta Ronan spoke smoothly over the line, his voice thick with a fake, casual politeness that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand at attention. "It is a beautifully clear morning outside today, isn't it? I noticed the campus quad is entirely empty. Are you currently enjoying a quiet period in y

  • I Faked Being a Boy, Now the Alpha is my Mate   Forty Four

    AUTHOR’S POVMorning dew clung to the immaculate, perfectly manicured grass of the Northern Pack's premier golf resort. The crisp autumn air carried the scent of wet pine and blooming mountain heather. Victoria Ashford stood near the edge of the fifth green, holding a sleek titanium driver. A hundred yards away on the adjacent fairway, her father walked alongside a high-ranking Northern dignitary, their distant, booming laughter carrying across the quiet course. Their presence served as a constant, heavy reminder that Victoria’s every move, even during a casual morning round, remained under strict political surveillance.Her mother, Eleanor Ashford, stepped up to the wooden tee marker. She wore a pristine white visor and a tailored navy athletic skirt, completely unbothered by the chilly temperature."I believe I pushed Jordan entirely too far in the stadium bleachers," Victoria confessed quietly, keeping her voice low so it would not travel across the open grass. She pulled a wooden

    JORDANI vaulted over the broken windowsill, my boots slamming onto the slick metal grating of the fire escape. Silas was moving with frantic, desperate speed, leaping down entire flights of stairs and ignoring the structural groans of the rusting metal. The rain made the narrow platforms treacherous. I holstered my weapon, realizing a stray bullet in this dense residential block would cause a massacre, and I needed the historian alive to break the encryption on Amberly Lynne's location.Silas reached the bottom of the fire escape, dropping fifteen feet into a narrow, flooded alleyway. I jumped the railing, falling through the freezing rain and landing in a deep puddle of murky water. The impact sent a sharp jolt of pain shooting up my shins, but the burning adrenaline pumping through my veins masked the discomfort.The chase transformed into a brutal, breathless sprint through the darkest veins of the Western slums. Silas tore through a chain-link fence, using his claws to rip the m

  • I Faked Being a Boy, Now the Alpha is my Mate   Forty Two

    JORDANHeavy rain hammered the reinforced windshield of my armored SUV, smearing the blurred neon lights of the Western Pack slums into long streaks of electric blue and harsh red. I sat in the driver’s seat, gripping the leather steering wheel with white knuckles while the vehicle idled in a dark, flooded alleyway. Three separate vehicles carrying my elite personal guard idled in formation right behind me, their engines humming a low, steady rhythm against the torrential downpour. I pressed the speakerphone button on the dashboard console, waiting for the secure connection to bridge the gap between my vehicle and the central tech hub back in the Southern Pack territory."I managed to fix the cooling fan on the secondary server unit, but I had to salvage parts from a broken microwave to make the wiring hold together," Cael complained through the static-laced speakers, his voice carrying the rough, gravelly edge of a man who lived on synthetic energy drinks and zero sleep. "The ambien

    AUTHOR'S POV.Jordan slammed his apartment door shut. The confined space of his living room pressed inward, making the drywall feel like the bars of a cage. The memory of his hands wrapping around Victoria’s throat played on a loop behind his eyes. He remembered the genuine fear warping her pristine features when she crossed the line. *Do you prefer to fuck dudes?* Her accusation burrowed deep into his skull, unearthing the panicked insecurity he spent weeks trying to bury. His wolf paced in the back of his mind, demanding release, howling for the boy with the amber eyes. Jordan could not breathe.He stripped his winter jacket from his shoulders and tossed the garment onto the floor. He walked back out the front door, hitting the paved street at a dead sprint.He reached the tree line of the pack woods, plunging into the dark timber without slowing his pace. The midnight air carried a freezing chill that felt like swallowing jagged glass. He pushed his human body beyond normal limit

  • I Faked Being a Boy, Now the Alpha is my Mate   Forty

    AUTHOR'S POVEmberly leaned against the brick wall of the college courtyard, shoving her hands into the pockets of her hoodie. Her eyes remained fixed on the far side of the quad. Jordan Draven sat alone on a concrete bench near the library, radiating a dark, unapproachable energy that forced passing students to give him a wide berth. His shoulders slumped, and his eyes stared blankly at the pavement. Emberly felt a tug in her chest, driven by the mate bond and genuine worry for Grandma Alder's health. She wanted to walk across the grass and demand to know what was happening, but the invisible wall he built around himself kept her paralyzed."You might want to wipe the drool off your chin before somebody slips on it," a bright voice interrupted.Emberly flinched as Nina stepped up beside her, holding two plastic cups of iced coffee."I was not drooling," Emberly lied, taking the cup to give her trembling hands something to hold."Please, Emberly, you were eye-fucking the Alpha heir
