Marked By The Rogue Alpha Chapter 136: The end
He moved my hair away from my neck.The first mark was still there.Faded into the skin but never gone.His fingers touched it.I remembered the study.Moonlight.My weak wolf somewhere far below me.Kieran stopping before the kiss could become something neither of us had chosen properly."It'll hurt.""I've had worse.""More than the first.""I've had worse weeks.""Meredith.""If you ask me again, I'm biting you first."He looked up."You'd do it badly.""I'd commit."That made him laugh.Low.Against my throat.I felt it through my whole body.Then his mouth found the old mark.His teeth sank in.Pain flashed.Sharp enough to take the room away.My hand closed in his shirt.I heard myself gasp.Then my wolf came up.Not crawling.Not weak.Not frightened.She rose so fast the bond cracked open around us.Kieran's wolf met her.Everything widened.And suddenly there was no careful narrow thread between us.No controlled channel.No piece of him deliberately held back so he wouldn't

Silverthorn did the acknowledgement at dusk.Outside.The hall couldn't hold everybody once word spread that the whole territory was coming up.I'd asked Kieran how it worked twice.Both times he'd been useless."What do I do?""Stand.""Where?""Courtyard.""Then what?""They decide.""Decide what?"He looked at me as though I'd asked him how weather works."Whether they acknowledge you.""How?""They'll do it.""That's not an explanation.""It's never been explained to me.""You are the Alpha.""Yes.""How do you not know your own ceremony?""It's not a ceremony."Eventually Sera took pity on me."It's not ordered," she said. "That's the point.""What happens?""Silverthorn either acknowledges you or it doesn't.""And if it doesn't?""Then it doesn't."She gave me a look."Luna.""What?""Have you met this pack?"Kieran went out first.The courtyard dropped its head to him at once.No hesitation.No confusion.They had been doing that since he was nineteen.Long before me.I stood a

MeredithHayley did my hair.She cried twice.Denied both."Your eyes are wet.""Steam.""There is no steam.""Hair product.""You don't use spray."She glared at me through the mirror."Do you want me to ruin this?""No.""Then respect my medical assessment.""You're crying.""Meredith.""Fine."She pinned one side.Then stood back.Her face changed again."You're not allowed to look like that.""Like what?""Happy."I laughed."I'm serious. I've prepared a whole speech about Kieran still being frightening.""Give it.""He is.""Strong opening.""And he's arrogant.""True.""And if he ever tries that annulment-paper nonsense again, I will poison him in a medically deniable way.""You can't say medically deniable.""I just did."She bent closer."But I've watched him since you came here."The joking left her face."And I have never once watched him make you smaller."My throat tightened.Hayley swallowed."That's the speech."I turned."Come here.""No.""Hayley.""I've done my makeup
Marked By The Rogue Alpha Chapter 133: This Time, My Wedding
MeredithHayley arrived four days later with two bags, three dresses and an opinion about the architecture.She got out of the car in Silverthorn's courtyard, looked at the black walls, the watchtowers and the wolves on the parapet, and said, "Still horrible.""It's been restored to full coalition standing.""Congratulations. It's an officially recognized nightmare.""I'll tell Kieran.""Please do."Then she looked at me.Really looked.Her expression changed."Say it.""He asked."Her eyes widened."I said yes."Hayley screamed.Two guards on the wall reached for weapons.Someone in the yard shifted halfway before realizing there was no attack.Hayley started crying.Then she hit me."Ow!""You made me hear it from Silas.""I didn't tell Silas to tell you.""Silas sent me a message that said the Luna has news and nothing else."I covered my face."No.""Six hours, Meredith.""You could have called me.""I did."My stomach dropped.I pulled out my phone.Seven missed calls."Oh.""Yes
Marked By The Rogue Alpha Chapter 132: Ask Me Again
MeredithI waited in the study because I wanted a room with a door.Not my bedroom.Not his.Not the hall where Silverthorn had watched me earn things.The study.The room where he'd made the mistake.The room where he'd tried to build me an exit without me.It seemed right that he should have to come back into it for this.I put the original contract on the desk.Beside it, I put what was left of the annulment packet.I squared both because he'd notice if I didn't.He came in at half nine.There was dust on his boots and his coat smelled of horse, cold air and the north line.He stopped when he saw me.Then he saw the desk."Meredith.""Sit down."His eyes went to the papers."You've been on a horse since five in the morning and it's making my back hurt just looking at you."He didn't move."Sit.""Is that—""Don't read the desk."He looked at me."Look at me."He did."Good."I had rehearsed it.Then I forgot the first half."You're making this difficult.""I haven't said anything."
Marked By The Rogue Alpha Chapter 131: What I Built Here
MeredithI gave myself four days.Kieran didn't ask for an answer during any of them.That mattered more than I wanted it to.He'd put the contract between us, told me exactly what had changed and exactly what it meant, then left me with the question instead of standing over me waiting for an answer.Eight weeks.A little less now.That was how long the arrangement had left before clause nine ended it on its own.No annulment.No royal order.No scandal.No dramatic piece of paper shoved across a table.It would simply stop.I had spent years imagining that freedom would feel like a door opening.It turns out that when nobody is pushing you toward or away from it, a door can be a difficult thing to look at.So I did what I know how to do.I walked around the problem and looked at everything connected to it.I didn't go to Kieran once.He didn't come to me either.Silas told me on the second morning, without being asked and without meeting my eyes, that the Alpha had been on the north
Marked By The Rogue Alpha Chapter 3: The Arrangement I Ran From
MeredithThe Benic estate looked exactly the way I remembered it. Grand iron gates, sprawling gardens that someone else maintained, and the main house rising three stories high with windows that caught the late afternoon sun. I'd grown up here, spent eighteen years learning how to be the perfect da
Marked By The Rogue Alpha Chapter 2: The Bride Who Left
MeredithI walked through the front door of the mansion still wearing the wedding dress Alarick had left me in, no veil, no bouquet, and no groom trailing behind me. The staff froze when they saw me, their eyes widening as they took in the ruined train dragging across the marble floor and the tear

MeredithAlarick's phone rang before the priest could finish binding us.Buzz. Buzz.I knew that ringtone, and so did everyone else in the hall as it meant one person and one person alone.Clover.My hand tightened around the bouquet, white roses crushing beneath my grip until the ribbon bit into m

Meredith Kieran Croft. The name wouldn’t stop repeating in my head. Stories came with it, the kind whispered across territories when people thought no one important was listening. The Rogue Alpha. The leader of Silverthorn who’d been accused of betraying the coalition. The man other packs avoi
