SEREN POV

I don't sleep in unfamiliar places. Never have.

It's not a preference. It's a habit that got carved into me so young I can't remember what it felt like before it this thing where my body simply refuses to go all the way under when I don't know every exit in a building, when I haven't mapped the sounds the structure makes as it settles, when I haven't decided which direction I'd run and in what form.

So I'm sitting at the kitchen island at three in the morning in someone else's house,

    Kyra POV I stifle a scream as my body trembles and shakes, trying not to cry but I can't hold it in, and tears start to track down my cheeks as I gulp and cling to him. Seeing Tor hurt, not knowing if he's really going to be okay, and then witnessing another woman with him is all too much. None of this should be happening. We had plans tonight. We're going to make dinner and walk Diogee and watch Kitten chase the laser light. Then he'll kiss me until I can't breathe and we'll make love and dream of when we can be together all the time."It's okay," he strokes my hair. "I know how much he means to you and how scary it all looks, but he's going to be fine. I wouldn't lie to you."No. You wouldn't. But I'm lying to you."What happened, Dad? How bad is he hurt?"He walks me down the hall to the small waiting area where we can be alone and hands me a handful of tissues from a box on the table. I dab at my eyes and blow my nose while I wait impatiently for him to answer."He's lucky, it co

That's something. A house where people actually live, not just exist, breathes differently there's warmth behind the walls.I didn't expect to feel that here.I didn't expect a lot of things about tonight."Couldn't sleep either?"I don't startle, which is how I know I already registered ANDREI coming down the stai

    ROMAN POV"SEREN doesn't know all of it. Only what our mother told her. But what our mother believed was that my father has been for a very long time looking for something. A specific kind of power. One that doesn't exist in wolves. That's never existed in wolves, in any form that anyone has seen." I pause. "Until now.""Until me," she says flatly."Until you."She's quiet for a moment. I don't fill it."So everything," she says. "Being taken before. The pack. INDIA. He wasn't just tightening the net around me because I'm your mate.""No.""He was tightening it because I'm what? A weapon he wants to use?""I don't think he sees it as a weapon. I think he sees it as a key." I cross the room and sit beside her, because I can't stand there looking at her from across the room for this next part. "SEREN said our mother believed that what you can do the healing, whatever else might still be there that hasn't shown itself yet it's tied to something old. Something that existed before the

    ROMAN POVMiss TILLY is standing on the front step of the townhouse when we pull up, and she's got that look on her face the one she gets when she already knows everything and has been running through it in her head the whole time we were gone. Both hands wrapped around a mug. Eyes tracking each of us as we climb out of the cars.Her gaze lands on SEREN and stays there."My goodness," she says, so quietly it's almost to herself. Then, louder: "Well. Come inside, all of you, before the neighbors think something's happened."Something has happened. Several somethings. But I don't say that.SEREN stops at the base of the steps and looks up at the townhouse the way people do when they're memorizing something in case they have to leave it suddenly. Old habit. I recognize it because I had it once too, a very long time ago."It's warm inside," I tell her. "And MATILDA makes enough food for twelve even when she's only expecting six, so whatever you haven't eaten today, you'll eat now."SEREN

  • Moonlit ice, A wolf's fated mate    Chapter eighty five

    LEERA POVSLATE is already on the phone when I find him leaning against the side of the cabin, laptop open on the hood of the rental, fingers moving before I've even said a word."Plane's being fueled," he says without looking up. "We leave in forty.""You heard already?""BENNY told me." He finally glances at me over the top of the screen. "You okay?""I don't know yet." I lean against the car beside him and tip my head back. The sky is doing that thing it does in late afternoon, going all gold and bruised at the edges. It would be pretty if it weren't for the smoke still threading through it from the ruins of the pack. "I will be."He nods and goes back to his screen. That's one of the things I've come to understand about SLATE. He doesn't push. He just stays."Thank you," I say. "For being on it before I even asked."He makes a small noise. Not quite a word. But I've learned that from him too that sometimes his sounds mean more than other people's sentences.I push off the car and
