MOONBOUND Chapter 10
CHAPTER TENPOV: ELARAI knew he knew what I was doing, but what’s the fun in backing down?"Prove it," I said. That was a mistake. I knew it the second his eyes changed.The change was not dramatic but then again nothing about Lucien was ever really dramatic, because dramatic required a certain level of uncertainty and chaos about the outcome and he usually didn’t have these.His eyes just darkened like water when it got too deep for light before he gripped my wrist firmly to communicate that the conversation had moved somewhere else entirely.I felt the middle of my thighs get hurt with just that motion.Maybe I was biting more than I could handle.He quietly led me, while I followed.He took the service door, left of the bar without hesitating, which meant either he had done this before or he had already mapped this building and located every exit, corridor and room that locked from the inside.I allowed myself believe that it was the latter which made him either tactical or somet

CHAPTER NINELUCIEN: POVI had attended forty-three of these gatherings. I could name every bloodline in the room, every debt outstanding, every alliance that had frayed since the last one. I could manage the entire room with one hand and have bandwidth left to dismantle anyone who tested me. I had done exactly that, every year, for over a decade. Then Elara walked in beside me and I forgot, completely and without warning, where I had placed my drink.The Halverson estate had been hosting Pack gatherings since before the city had its current name.The ballroom was the original structure; everything else had been built around it over two centuries, added and extended and renovated until the house was enormous and slightly incoherent, a thing assembled by too many different eras. But the ballroom held. High ceilings with the old plasterwork still intact, chandeliers that had been converted from candle to electric and back to candle again because someone had decided the light was bet

CHAPTER EIGHT POV: ELARA The woman's name was Sable. She was Lucien's third, which in Pack structure meant she was the most dangerous person in the building who was not Lucien himself. She did not like me. She communicated like the powerful woman she was not saying it directly. By the end of my first day at the estate, I understood the rules but I simply refused to perform like I did. Every office has a skeleton. Not the org chart they hand you on the first day that's the building permit, the thing they show the city so construction can begin. The real structure is the one underneath it. Who eats lunch alone and chooses to. Who copies who on emails they don't technically need to. Which assistant knocks before entering and which one doesn't bother. I had learned to read that architecture in every room I'd ever worked in. The estate was just a room. Bigger than most. Colder than all of them. By eight in the morning I had placed everyone in it. Reyes, dark and quiet, who mana

CHAPTER SEVENPOV: ELARA"Say it again," Marcus said. His voice was very calm one that meant the opposite."Werewolves, ""No, before that.""Marcus, ""Elara. Before the werewolf part. Say the part that comes before the werewolf part."I set down my coffee."I slept with my boss. He imprinted on me. Now I have to marry him or people will keep trying to kill me."He stared at me for a long time."Okay," he said flabbergasted"Now the werewolf part."Marcus's kitchen smelled like burnt toast and the cedar candle he'd been lighting every morning since his mother sent it two Christmases ago.It was the most normal smell in the world. I held onto it while I talked while I laid the whole thing out in the order it happened.I started from the Alderman Hotel corridor six weeks ago and ended with the alley, the knife and the part where Lucien Blackwood had dropped three storeys out of the dark and put himself between me and Victoria Moretti without breaking stride.Marcus sat across from me at

CHAPTER SIXLUCIENShe said please. They Fucking Made her beg!That was the part I could not stop hearing. Elara Vonross, who had spent three years staring down boardroom serpents and cleaning up the wreckage of my indulgences without blinking onceshe pressed herself against a brick wall and whispered please. To me. As though I were the thing she should have been running from all along. The worst part was that she wasn't wrong.The blood on my hands had dried by the time Cade found me.I hadn't moved. I noticed that the way you notice a crack in a wall you've lived with for thirty years, not with alarm, just with the flat awareness that something has changed even though the wall was still standing.This was both reassuring and not at the same time. I was standing with my back against the same stretch of brick she had pressed against, and staring at the dark smear she'd left near shoulder height when Victoria's blade had grazed her throat.Barely a nick and yet the thought of it, enr

CHAPTER FIVE: ELARAVictoria's smile was the last thing I saw before pain exploded across my face.I hit the ground hard. Tasted blood. My vision blurred.Hands grabbed me. Dragged me into the alley. I tried to scream. Something covered my mouth. A hand. Too strong. Too fast."Shh," Victoria whispered in my ear. "We're just going to talk."I bit down. Hard.She laughed and slammed my head against the brick wall.Stars burst behind my eyes. My knees buckled."Feisty. I can see why he likes you."I couldn't focus. Couldn't breathe. There were others. Three? Four? I couldn't tell. They moved wrong. Too fast. Too fluid.Victoria crouched in front of me. Grabbed my hair. Yanked my head back."Did you think it wouldn't matter?" she asked. "Did you think you could let an Alpha fuck you and walk away clean?""I don't…I don't know what…""You reek of him." She leaned closer. Inhaled. Her eyes flashed something inhuman. "His claim is all over you. In your skin. Your blood. Do you have any idea
