Kill Me Alpha, Before I Do (Beast Of Flames Book 1) Chapter 47
Romy POV“You left a stack of letters on my desk,” I said. “What am I supposed to do with them?”Rowan didn’t look up immediately. He sat at the head of the long table in the east study, one ankle hooked beneath the opposite chair, sleeves rolled to his forearms like he’d been buried in work for hours already. Late afternoon light cut across the room in pale gold bands, catching on the silver rings stacked beside his papers and the dark watch at his wrist.“Answer them,” he said.I stared at him.The stack sat three seats down from me, tied neatly with a dark green ribbon Mrs. Gable had probably arranged.“I’m your prisoner, Rowan.”His eyes moved across the page in his hand. “You’re my mate.”“Feels interchangeable some days.”That got the smallest pause out of him.I dragged a chair back and sat across from him, the scrape of wood against stone louder than it needed to be. “I’m not handling official pack correspondence. That’s not my skill set.”“Then tell me what is.”“I kill peop

Romy PovI finally caught on that alerting me about events at the dire minute was a sick power play of his when Rowan told me about the council presentation. It was meant to happen on Wednesday, and he thought it wise to inform me on Mondayforty-eight hours! I had forty-eight hours to prepare, object, and accept that objecting was not going to make him move the date. He sat across from me at breakfast and said, "The council has requested a formal Luna presentation. Wednesday at two. You'll go in, they'll ask their questions, and you'll answer them."I looked up from my coffee. "And if I don't want to?""Then they'll spend the next six months finding procedural reasons to make your life difficult," he said, picking up his fork, "and I'll spend the next six months dismantling each one, which is going to be boring for everyone. Go on Wednesday, answer the questions, and we skip all of that."He had a point, which I resented–but it was valid eitherways."What kind of questions?" I asked

Romy pov"Nira," the mother said, moving toward her."It's all right," I said. I crouched down to the girl's level–before she could pull the girl away.She looked at my face and then at the raven tattoo on my neck and then back at the curl she was holding between her fingers, and she said, with complete conviction, "It's orange."I looked down at the curl. “It’s red.”She thought about this for a moment, head tilting. "A bit orange," she said."That's fair," I said, a smile tugging at my lips.Apparently satisfied with the compromise, she released my hair and retreated behind her mother’s skirts.The woman looked mortified.“I’m so sorry, Luna, she doesn’t always—”“She’s fine,” I interrupted.Nira peeked around her mother’s leg again, studying me with open curiosity instead of fear.Most people in Stormveil still watched me like they were trying to decide whether I would save the pack or slit its throat in the middle of dinner.Children, apparently, just wanted to discuss hair color.

Romy PovRowan told me about the outer settlement visit on a Thursday, which gave me exactly two days to object, argue, and ultimately lose the argument before I found myself on a Saturday morning sitting in the back of a black estate vehicle with my arms folded and Zaric's wool coat draped over my shoulders. He'd left it outside my door the night before without a note, which was Zaric's way of communicating that he'd checked the valley temperature forecast and decided I wasn't going to be practical about it on my own.Aaron was driving. Two guards followed in a second vehicle. The back seat around me was stacked with six wooden crates packed with preserved foods, medical supplies, and winter blankets, all of it loaded before I was even awake. Which meant Rowan had been planning this for weeks and chose Thursday to mention it. I had a number of things to say to him about that. I was collecting them for later."Aaron, how far is the settlement?" I asked."Forty minutes," he said, his

Romy PovNobody told me about the household meeting until the morning it happened.Rowan brought it up at breakfast, casually, the way he announced things he knew I wouldn't like while doing something else.“There will be a staff meeting at ten,” he said, his eyes still on the document open on his phone. “You’re chairing it.”I set my fork down. "I'm what?"He reached for the coffee pot without looking remotely concerned for his own survival. “The Luna chairs the weekly household meeting.”“I don’t recall agreeing to become involved in… whatever this is.”“Menus. Staffing. Maintenance requests.” He poured coffee into his cup. “Mrs. Gable runs the agenda. You approve the final decisions.”"You could have told me this yesterday," I said, staring at him. "Or the day before. Or any day before this morning.""It's nine for

Romy povThe closer we got, the louder the estate became.Voices drifted through the corridor ahead. Crystal glasses clinked softly. Somewhere deeper inside the west wing, a piano played low enough to feel more atmospheric than intentional.Then the receiving room doors opened, and suddenly the space felt enormous.Tall ceilings stretched high overhead, framed with dark carved beams and chandeliers that spilled gold light across polished floors. Massive windows overlooked the mountain range beyond Stormveil, winter clouds dragging slowly across the distant peaks.Portraits lined the walls.Lunas. Generations of them.Beautiful women painted in silk and jewels and power, all staring down from gilded frames with expressions ranging from regal approval to outright judgment.I glanced at one particularly severe-looking blonde near the fireplace.“She definitely hated people,” I murmured.Rowan’
