Kill Me Alpha, Before I Do (Beast Of Flames Book 1) Chapter 81
Romy povMy shoulder blades pressed hard into the dusty velvet cushion of the settee. The fabric smelled of dry cedar and old soot that never quite left the wool filling after the storage wing was shut off for winter.Above me, the window was just a dark grey square where the freezing sleet that kept hitting the glass in a rattle that grew louder every time the wind blew stronglyI was a complete fool. I kept repeating the same stupid mistakes, letting my guard down the second someone showed me any little act of kindness. I actually let myself believe Valerie was just being nice, despite the fact that i’d suspected her for poisoning my drink weeks ago.One moment of cold hands and a warm mug and I’d walked straight into her trap again.If only Xry could see me right now, flat on my back because I couldn’t smell a basic root extract in a mug of elderberry juice–I’d never hear the end of it.I survived the Hawthorne fires and three years of assassination contracts just to let two villa

Romy povCaleb leaned back against the wooden frame of the booth, his fingers drumming on his buckle slowly. He didn’t look at Rowan’s fist, still bunched in the front of his jacket, he just squinted through the grey light toward the front window.“You think you’re the only one keeping track of her, Rowan?” he said, his teeth showing behind a thin, dry smile. “Lord Kaelen from the northern border came through the high crossing this morning. He spent twenty minutes at the gate station talking about what he’s going to do with the Viper once she’s out of this villa.”Rowan’s fingers tightened into the nylon until the seams popped. His shoulders bunched under his wool coat, his head lowering until his chin almost touched his collar.“Kaelen doesn’t know anything about the valley quarters,” Rowan said, his voice coming out in a low, gravelly rasp. “He hasn’t been within fifty miles of the lower gates since the winter truce.”Caleb let out a short, wet bark of laughter, his eyes moving towa

Romy pov The air inside the main house sat thick and stale, tasting of old wood and damp cloth.Pamela stood by the heavy oak sideboard in the dining hall, counting through a stack of yellow delivery slips. “The automated network is dropping packets again, Romy,” she said, her fingers sliding one slip to the bottom of the pile. “Go down to the transit terminal and verify the dry goods by hand. Take the lower road.”I nodded once and kept my face flat. If her errand got me out of the villa for an hour, I’d let her think I was listening.I pulled my heavy coat off the iron peg by the pantry before she finished speaking. My boots hit the gravel path outside, the soles sliding sideways on the grey patches of thin ice on the asphalt.The weight behind my collarbone pulled harder with every ten yards I put between myself and the residential block. It pulled like a cold wire hooked under my collarbone. I tucked my chin into my wool collar and kept walking.The freezing sleet came down in gr

Take the lower road.”I nodded, keeping my face flat. If her errand got me out of the villa for an hour, I’d let her think I was listening.I pulled my heavy coat off the iron peg by the pantry before she finished speaking, my boots already hitting the gravel path outside.The weight behind my collarbone pulled harder with every ten yards I put between myself and the residential block. It pulled like a cold wire hooked under my collarbone. But I tucked my chin into my wool collar and kept walking as the free

Romy povThe gauze on my palm kept splitting at the stitching every time I pressed the stylus down to log the barrel numbers. The kitchen was quiet except for the ice maker in the corner, dropping cubes into the bin with a dull thud every few minutes.The heavy oak door behind the counter clicked open and Rowanwalked in, his broad shoulders filling the frame before he even stepped through. The smell of freezing rain and wet wool hit the small space instantly, coming off the dark collar of his coat in a faint, cold mist.He didn’t drop his keys on the hook by the door or even look toward the pantry logs. He just moved straight to the desk, leaned over my shoulder from behind, his chest briefly pressing against my back as he reached past me.The cold brass buttons of his jacket brushed my upper shoulder through the thin cotton of my shirt. He didn’t take the stylus, neither did hetouch the tablet.His left hand came down on my hip,

Romy PovThe brass garden tap behind the garage didn’t have a rubber washer left in it. Freezing well water kept dribbling over the brass thread, running straight down my forearm into the sleeve of my thermal shirt. The skin on my knuckles was grey and thick with dried lime wash from the cellar. They split across my middle finger and opened again every time I tried to scrub the crusted white paste out of my nails.A delivery pickup came down the lane and braked hard near the loading bay. The engine cut and Liam Mercer dropped from the cab.He didn’t bother checking the delivery log on the sun visor, he unfastened the tailgate with his left hand, his work gloves tucked under his arm while he dragged a fifty-pound sack of road salt toward the edge of the truck bed.His dark hair was flat on one side from the rain, stuck to his temples in thin streaks that ran to his jawline. When he lifted the second crate of winter fluid, his shoulder hit the steel corner of the truck bed. He caught

Romy POVThe phone belonged to one of the kitchen girls.Not Petra–Petra I liked, and I wasn't going to burn her. It was the one who left her jacket on the south terrace twice a week and spent her break leaning against the service wall scrolling through something that wasn't estate business. I'd b

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

13 years ago.Romy’s POV“Heavens, Romy! You either pick that doll up or I swear, I'll rip its head off its poorly invested neck!” My mother screamed, filled with a fury I had come accustomed to over the years.I flinched, and the doll slipped from my fingers and hit the floor with a dull thud. One
