Mated to the Alpha King 51 - Awake
[Unknown Forest Location, Twilight, Hours Later] Winter woke to the smell of damp earth and burning cedar. Her head throbbed dully, and her body felt like it had been wrung out and left to dry. She was lying on something soft..a bedroll, maybe, or a pile of furs. and the air around her was warmer than it should be, kissed by firelight. She opened her eyes slowly, wincing at the brightness. Above her was not stone ceiling but a canopy of dark rock, natural and rough hewn, glittering faintly with some kind of mineral deposit that caught the light. Firelight. Torchlight. She turned her head, her neck protesting, and saw she was in a cave. Not a small, crude shelter, but a vast space carved out by centuries of water and time, its walls smooth in places and jagged in others. Luminous lichen grew in patches, casting a faint blue-green glow that mixed eerily with the warmer orange of several small fires scattered throughout the space. And there were people. Dozens of them. Moving betwe

Winter stumbled backward, shaking her head frantically, her hand flying to her throat, trying to force sound past whatever invisible block he'd placed there Her gaze darted to Gareth. why wasn't he moving? Why wasn't he- Her blood turned to ice. Gareth was moving. But wrong. He was swaying slightly, his eyes glazed and unfocused, staring at nothing. Spelled. They'd spelled him first, before coming for her. The young man moved toward her with swift, silent steps, his expression urgent but not cruel. "We're not here to hurt you," he whispered, his voice low and surprisingly gentle. "Your mother sent us. Sophia. She's alive. She wants you safe. Needs you safe. Away from him." Winter's world tilted violently. Her mother? Sophia was.. alive? The aunt..Griselda had told her mother died in childbirth. Told her she was alone, unwanted, a burden. The lie was so enormous, so foundational to every miserable year of her existence, that her mind simply refused to process it. She shook her hea
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 iron gate, a statue of indifference, though she'd caught him watching her with something that might've been curiosity once or twice. The sky above was a pale, washed out grey, promising rain but not yet delivering. Everything felt suspended, waiting.The last three days had been strange. Not bad strange. Just..different. After that morning in Ezekiel's rooms, after her insane declaration that she'd stay, he'd escorted her back to her own chambers himself. He hadn't spoken, but he'd walked beside her through the citadel's corridors, his presence, a silent, massive shadow. Word had spread fast. The staff who saw them had stared, open mouthed, before scurrying away. Jax had appeared later w
Mated to the Alpha King 48 - Frightened
He found himself moving, his feet carrying him through the darkened, storm lashed corridors of his own accord. He told himself he was just checking the citadel's defenses, ensuring the storm wasn't causing undue damage. It was a lie, and he knew it. He found her in a lower corridor of the West Wing, not far from her chamber. Gareth was trying, in his own clumsy way, to reassure her, but she was beyond hearing. She was pressed against the wall, her eyes wide with terror, her body shaking like a leaf. Each clap of thunder made her jump, a small, choked sob escaping her lips. She looked so small, so fragile, so utterly consumed by her fear. The sight did something strange to the ice around his heart. It didn't melt, not exactly. But it...cracked. A little more. He stalked towards them, his presence silencing even the howl of the wind for a moment. Gareth snapped to attention, his face paling when he saw the Alpha King's thunderous expression. "Alpha," Gareth began, "Storm. Frighte
Mated to the Alpha King 47 - Storm
From a high, shadowed window in the adjoining library tower, Ezekiel watched her. He had told himself he wouldn't. He had told himself he would give her space, let Jax's ridiculous 'not wilting' plan take its course. But he couldn't stay away. The bond, her presence, pulled at him. She looked so small in the vastness of the garden, her white hair a stark splash of silver against the muted greens and browns. She wasn't moving, just sitting on the bench, her head slightly bowed. was she crying?? he couldn't tell from this distance. The thought sent an unwelcome pang through him. He watched her for a long time. She eventually began to explore, her movements hesitant at first, then a little more confident. She touched the rough bark of a tree, ran her fingers over the velvety moss on the fountain's edge. She seemed......drawn to the quiet, forgotten beauty of the place. His father's voice echoed in his mind. A white-haired witch killed your mother. They are deceit, wrapped in false

"Ezekiel," Jax began, his voice carefully neutral. "What," Ezekiel bit out, not looking at him. "She's barely eating," Jax said quietly. "Zoe says she just stares at the walls. She won't go out to the herb garden anymore. Gareth says she flinches if he even looks at her too long." Ezekiel's grip tightened on a spearhead, the metal groaning faintly. Good, a dark part of him snarled. Let her fear me. It's better that way. But another part, the part that was inextricably bound to her, felt a sharp, unwelcome pang. "She. Is. Fed." he growled. "Being fed and living are two different things, Ezekiel," Jax said, his patience wearing thin. "You can't just… break her and then lock her away and expect her to… what? Vanish?" Ezekiel slammed the spearhead down onto a table with a clang that made Jax wince. "What. Do. You. Want. Jax." "I want you to stop being a damn cursed icicle for five minutes and think!" Jax snapped, his own temper flaring. "She's your mate! You nearly devoured her, an
