She sat up, her heart pounding.

the room was silent. Empty. But the feeling was back. Stronger this time. The hum of the bond was a distinct thrum in her blood, a resonant frequency that made the hairs on her arms stand up.

He was close.

She slid off the high bed, her bare feet silent on the cold stone. She was driven by an instinct she didn’t understand, a moth like pull toward a terrifying flame. She crept out of the bedchamber and into the main sitting area. The room was a vast cavern of

  • Mated to the Alpha King   117 - Stop Helping

    Sophia's expression didn't soften. "Pretty words from someone who's had decades to perfect manipulation." "I was cursed with a stone heart for twenty-two years." Ezekiel's voice had gone rough again. "Manipulation requires emotional intelligence I didn't possess. All I had was instinct. And my instinct said protect her. Keep her safe. Make sure nothing touched her." "Because she's yours. Your possession." "Because she's mine and I'm hers." Ezekiel's golden eyes were steady on Sophia. "Mutual. Equal. Not ownership." Winter felt her throat tighten. Hearing Ezekiel defend their bond with actual words instead of grunts and silence made everything more real Sophia must have seen something in Winter's face because her expression crumbled slightly. "Baby. Please. You don't have to do this. You can stay here. Learn your magic. Be safe with people who understand what you've been through." "I don't want to be safe in a cave." Winter's voice wavered but stayed firm. "I want to be with Zeke

  • Mated to the Alpha King   116 - You're Wrong

    Sophia was standing exactly where Winter expected her to be. Arms crossed, magic already gathered in her palms making them glow faintly green. Her face was the kind of furious that came from hearing everything through stone walls and not being able to prevent it."You kissed him." Not a question. An accusation.Winter kept Ezekiel's hand in hers. "Yes.""After everything I told you. After explaining what his family did to ours. After warning you the mate bond is manipulation." Sophia's voice was shaking. "You kissed the son of your father's murderer.""I kissed my mate." Winter's grip tightened on Ezekiel's fingers. "The curse broke. His heart is real now. Everything changed.""Nothing changed." Sophia took a step forward. Vex growled low but she ignored him. "He's still a werewolf. Still the Alpha King. Still capable of destroying you the way his father destroyed our family."Ezekiel spoke before Winter could. "I'm not my father."Sophia's eyes snapped to him. "You can talk in comple

  • Mated to the Alpha King   115 - Choosing Him

    Ezekiel's mouth twitched. "Tell her what? That I love you and you love me and we're leaving together?" "that sounds terrible when you say it out loud." "It is terrible." Ezekiel kissed her forehead. Quick and gentle. "But it's ours. Our terrible decision. Our impossible situation. Our choice." Winter leaned into him, her head resting against his chest. Right over his now-beating heart. "Your voice is different. Less rough. More human." "The curse affected everything. Speech included." Ezekiel's hand stroked through her hair. "Is it strange?" "A little. But I like it." Winter's fingers traced absent patterns on his chest. "I liked the grunting too. But this is nice. Getting to hear your actual thoughts." "I'll probably still grunt. Alpha habit." Ezekiel smiled against her hair. "But now I can also tell you things. Like how you're the most beautiful person I've ever seen. How watching you learn shadow magic made me proud. How losing you nearly destroyed me." Winter was quiet for

  • Mated to the Alpha King   114 - Real Again

    Ezekiel hadn't considered it that way. "She gave me a chance. Cursed me but left an escape route." "Because she wasn't just angry. She was heartbroken. But she still believed love was powerful enough to overcome hatred." Winter's voice thickened. "That's not revenge. That's hope." Ezekiel stared at Winter. This small woman who'd survived abuse and loss. who'd learned magic in three weeks and bonded with a beast. Who sent a message via bat because she wanted to talk instead of hide. Who saw hope in a revenge curse. "I love you." The words came out before Ezekiel could overthink them. Simple. True. "I don't know if that's too fast or too intense. But the curse is gone and I can feel everything now and what I feel is love. For you. Little Ghost." Winter's breath caught. Her grey eyes went wide. "You love me." "Yes." "Even though we barely know each other. Even though our families destroyed each other. Even though this entire situation is impossible." "Yes." Ezekiel's thumb traced

  • Mated to the Alpha King   113 - Use That Power

    Winter's expression shifted into understanding. "That's why you watched instead of talked. Why you communicated through actions." "Yes." Ezekiel met her eyes directly. "But now I can tell you things. Use actual words instead of grunting commands." "I didn't mind the grunting." Winter's mouth twitched. "It was kind of endearing." Ezekiel's laugh surprised him. The sound came out genuine. "Endearing. That's a word I've never been called." "Get used to it." Winter shifted slightly. "What else is different?" "Everything." Ezekiel focused on cataloging the changes. "My heart actually beats. I can feel temperature properly. Hunger. Thirst. Before the curse, those were just vague signals. Now they're real." "What about emotions?" That question was harder. "Before, emotions were muted. I could intellectually understand that I should feel angry or sad, but the actual feeling was distant. Now everything is immediate. Intense. I'm not sure how to process it all." Winter was quiet for a m

  • Mated to the Alpha King   112 - Let it Happen

    the pain started in Ezekiel's chest. Not the dull ache he'd carried for twenty-two years. Not the cold emptiness where his heart should be. This was sharp. Immediate. Like something inside him was physically cracking apart. His hand dropped from Winter's face. Both palms pressed against his sternum as the fracturing sensation spread outward. Ribs. Lungs. Throat. Every part of him that the curse had touched was suddenly coming undone. "Zeke?" Winter's voice sounded far away. "What's happening?" Ezekiel couldn't answer. His jaw was clenched too tight, teeth grinding together as the curse fought to maintain its hold. Twenty-two years of magical binding didn't want to release. But Morwenna hadn't accounted for her own granddaughter. Hadn't known that the white-haired girl would be born half-wolf, half-witch. Hadn't predicted the mate bond would snap between her cursed victim and her descendant. Hadn't imagined that love might actually form between two people who should have been en

  • Mated to the Alpha King   49 - Shock and Terror

    [Crescent Citadel, West Wing Garden, Late Autumn Afternoon, Three Days After the Storm]Winter had been walking the library garden for nearly an hour, her fingers trailing over the rough bark of the gnarled trees, her breath misting faintly in the cooling air. Gareth stood his usual post by the ir

    The silence he left behind was louder than a scream. Winter sat frozen on the hard wooden chair, her entire being vibrating with the aftershocks of his presence. Her mind was a kaleidoscope of fractured images: the terrifying intensity of his golden eyes, the shocking heat of his body so close t

    A tremor ran through her, a violent shudder she couldn’t control. She wrapped her arms around herself, her teeth chattering. His eyes narrowed further, a flicker of deep annoyance in their golden depths. Her weakness, her fear, it was like a grating noise, a flaw in the perfect, cold silence of hi

  • Mated to the Alpha King   14 - Unexpected

    This must be Elspeth, Winter thought, recalling the name from Jax's earlier comment. She had served the Citadel for a long time, and her loyalty was to the Alpha King alone. The woman’s eyes, the color of slate, flickered over Winter once. It wasn’t a glance; it was a judgment. It was a look that
