Lira

Tova appeared from down the hall. She'd been watching in silence. She'd seen everything, heard everything. She rushed to me.

I started crying. I couldn't hold it anymore. "This is what I was avoiding all this time."

"This isn't love," I sobbed. "This is possession. They'll start all over again with the fights and the competitions. It's just crazy."

"Should we go out and avoid them all?" Tova suggested. "Just leave for the day?"

I nodded. "Yes, I need to get away."

I went to my room to dress

    LiraThe metal clank of the cell door announced Athena before I saw her.She stepped inside.The gold amulet around her neck caught the light, suddenly too bright to look at. Her white robe felt wrong in this place.I stayed on the cot and did not move.She looked me over, irritation and something close to regret crossing her face.“You look terrible,” she said.“Thanks.”My voice came out rough.I waited for the lecture, for the judgment. She stood in front of me and said nothing.After a moment, I asked, “Why are you here?”“To check on you.”I almost asked why. Shouldn’t she be relieved? This was happening to me.“You’re facing execution in three days,” she said. “The brothers are falling apart.”Her eyes traced my face. She shook her head.“I feel like I failed,” she said. “I sensed something was wrong the moment I met you. I didn’t push. I let you hide when I should have forced the truth out sooner.”I looked away.“It wouldn’t have changed anything,” I said quietly. “This was al

    Lira They came for me before dawn. Keys rattled outside the cell. Four guards stood at the door. Eyes fixed on me.I’d been awake for hours, back against the wall, watching the other women snore.“Time to go,” a guard said.The cuffs went on. My body moved when they pulled. I felt none of it. They led me through corridors and gates. Voices gathered ahead of us. The yard was already full. Council members lined the platform. Pack mates filled every space behind the barricades. Hundreds of eyes followed me. I kept my head up. I didn’t look at their faces.A raised platform stood across the yard. Guards lined the path to it, spears upright, eyes fixed on me.The crowd surged until wood and iron stopped them. Hands gripped the barricades. Bodies pressed close.An elder stepped past the barrier and spat. The white lump hit the dirt near my feet.I didn’t move.My name moved through the crowd. Low voices. Sharp whispers. I felt them more than I heard them.A horn sounded. The council too

    RivenJax pinched his lips together, frustration clear on his face.Kain stayed focused on the texts spread across the table. I was quiet, but I was not unaware that we were running out of time, and that none of us had answers yet.We sat around the oak table with books spread out between us. Some pages were folded. Notes filled the margins where we had stopped to argue or clarify something.Jax stood and poured himself a cup of coffee.“We can’t keep going in circles,” he said. “There has to be something out there. Or we’re chasing solutions that don’t exist.”“Relax, Jax,” Kain said without looking up. “We’ll find something if we keep searching.”“We don’t have time,” Jax snapped. “They’re going to burn her.”“I’m being realistic,” Kain said. “The odds are against us. We barely have anything to work with. We’ve been at this for days, and nothing we’ve found will change the Council’s mind. If we don’t slow down and think clearly, we’ll lose.”“Then tell me when you find something tha

It was screaming.Every muscle felt like it had been beaten with rocks and when I tried to sit up the pain made me gasp and fall back down.The cuts and scratches covering my arms and legs had tur

    LIRAI was running like the hounds of hell were on my heels.Afternoon sun burned overhead and even through the dense canopy I could feel its heat pressing down and I knew outside the forest it must be scorching.Last night's rain had turned the ground to mud. I was caked in it from falling, sliding

I had to be there to greet them.Alpha Winston and his wife Luna Gloria with their daughter whose name I could not remember for the life of me. They were my father's allies.
