Romy pov

The metallic taste of spent casing smoke and scorched stone sat heavy on the back of my tongue as the high pavilion battle finally began to cool.

The main Hunter vanguard wave had been violently funneled into our prepared chokepoints, their broken armor plates and discarded rifles littering the crimson-stained snow of the upper terraces.

Rowan’s massive beast form had shifted back into his bleeding human frame, his broad shoulders rising and falling as he leaned heavily against the

  • Kill Me Alpha, Before I Do (Beast Of Flames Book 1)   Chapter 158

    Rowan povThe stone walls of the eastern wing had never felt so thick, yet to my inner beast, they were as fragile as dried leaves. Ever since Aaron had confirmed the tiny, fast heart fluttering beneath Romy’s ribs, a dark, suffocating instinct had seized control of my chest. It wasn't just the territorial pride of an Alpha; it was a desperate, primitive terror. The blood of the Hawthorne line and the ancestral fire of Stormveil were mingling inside her body, creating a beacon of power that felt almost palpable in the mountain air.If the remaining Syndicate cells down south caught even a whisper of what she carried, they wouldn't just send mercenaries, they would bring the world down on our gates.So I locked it down.I had ordered double sentries at the base of the eastern staircase, barred the doors leading to the lower armory, and restricted all non-essential staff from entering the high corridor. Kaelen had argued that isolating the Luna would stir unnecessary panic among the p

  • Kill Me Alpha, Before I Do (Beast Of Flames Book 1)   Chapter 157

    Romy povThe air in the eastern training yard was thick with the sharp smell of cold iron, pine sap, and damp mud. The morning mist was still clinging to the timber fence posts, but the vanguard recruits were already two hours into their physical drills. The rhythmic thud of wooden practice broadswords striking leather padded dummies echoed off the high stone terrace where I stood. I wrapped my arms loosely over my chest, my right hand resting near the hilt of my concealed ceramic blade, my eyes tracking the footwork of the forward squad. My left arm barely throbbed anymore, yet my mind remained locked in its relentless rhythm.Then, without warning, the entire yard seemed to tilt violently on its axis.A sudden, overwhelming wave of nausea hit the back of my throat like a physical blow. It wasn't the slow, manageable discomfort of fatigue or raw exhaustion; it was a sudden, violent surge that made my vision blur into a dizzying streak of dark slate and pale mud. At the exact same

  • Kill Me Alpha, Before I Do (Beast Of Flames Book 1)   Chapter 156

    Rowan povThe heavy oak table in the center of the war room was still scarred from the heavy tactical gear we had tossed across it during the siege, its polished surface gouged by knife points and stained with dark circles where tin coffee mugs had rested through the long nights.Map sheets of the northern ridges and the southern marshlands were pinned under heavy brass weights, their edges curling in the draft that whistled through the high arrow slits. I stood at the head of the table, my fingers resting flat against the edge of the wood, watching the rain strike the reinforced leaded glass windows. My body was still operating on a razor-thin edge, my sensory amplifiers humming with a restless, protective electricity that kept my ears tuned to every footstep in the corridor outside. Romy was currently down in the lower armory with Aaron, inspecting the remaining stocks of standard-issue sidearms, and even though I could feel the calm, steady rhythm of her heart beating through ou

    Rowan PovShe didn't lean into my chest, nor did she let out the soft, vulnerable sigh she had shared with me at dawn. Instead, her body turned into a column of hard, unyielding steel.She stepped back, breaking my grip on her waist with a quick, practiced twist of her hips, her boots sliding back two inches against the floorboards as she looked up at me with a cold, piercing glare that belonged to the elite Viper assassin who had survived thirteen years of hell. "Say that again," she said, her voice dropping into a razor-thin register that carried no warmth whatsoever. "It's for your protection, Romy," I insisted, taking a step forward, my tensed chest expanding as my beast bristled at her sudden resistance. "Silas's blood is still wet in the conservatory. Caleb's Mercer defectors could have left unexploded charges near the drainage tracks. The territory is not fully stabilized, and I will not risk you or the mark on your neck standing out in the open." "Risk me?" Romy let o

    Rowan povThe air inside the ruined main conservatory tasted like cold ash, copper, and shattered glass. Though the morning sun had cleared the eastern ridges hours ago, the glass house remained a freezing, drafty vault. I stood in the center of the debris, my heavy leather coat draped over my shoulders, my eyes tracking the work of the clean-up detail. Kaelen was directing four vanguard warriors as they hauled away the heavy iron beams that had collapsed near the back exit, their boots crunching loudly over millions of tiny glass shards.But my sensory amplifiers weren't tuned to the sound of clearing rubble. My inner beast was pacing back and forth beneath my skin, clawing at my ribs with a violent, restless aggression that made my jaw ache.The scent was still here. Silas had died against the central iron pillar, his dark, sour blood soaked deep into the dirt floorboards and frozen into the moss.Every time the mountain wind whistled through the broken iron frames of the roof, the

  • Kill Me Alpha, Before I Do (Beast Of Flames Book 1)   Chapter 153

    RomyThe sudden absence of gunfire felt like a physical weight pressing down on my eardrums.For thirteen years, my mind had been tuned to the high-frequency rattle of conflict—the sharp click of a safety turning off, the heavy slide of a bolt, the desperate, wet breathing of a target cornered in the dark.But as I opened my eyes in the deep, stone-carved sanctuary of the main keep, the absolute silence of the mountain morning was completely disorienting. The bright dawn light cut through the high, arched windows of the Alpha suite, painting the heavy fur blankets and the dark oak floorboards in long, pale streaks of gold.I lay perfectly still under the heavy weight of the sheets, my heart pounding a fast, defensive rhythm against my ribs simply because there was nothing to fight. My body was an atlas of the previous night's siege. My splinted left arm was resting on a soft velvet pillow, the deep bone-ache now down to a quiet, manageable throb thanks to the medic's herbal wraps.

    Romy pov1:30 AM.My subdued, sullen bridesmaid persona was dead and buried. In its place was Viper and Romy, the girl whose sister was killed by a beast.I stood on the ledge of the adjacent skyscraper, the freezing Buston wind whipping around my dark, skin-tight tactical gear. My face was conceal

    Romy pov“Did… did she just reject him?”“Did she reject Alpha Rowan?”“Is she crazy?”“Wait… she’s the Alpha’s mate?”The frantic, horrified whispers of the crowd swept through the grand reception hall like wildfire.Hundreds of pairs of eyes darted between me and the towering Beast of Flames stan

    Rowan, 31 "Today is his son's wedding, Alpha. Can we just give him the decency of enjoying a father-of-the-groom day before taking him in for questioning?"Aaron, my Beta and second-in-command, matched my long strides as we turned out of the elevator. I barely paid heed to his words."I don't have

    Romy, 23. Present Day. “That dress,” Camellia noted, her polished finger pointing directly at my neck as I turned slightly in the full-length mirror. “It doesn't cover the tattoo.” I kept my eyes on the raven tattoo climbing the side of my neck. It was for Alina, the only person who had ever call
