Sera

"The pack needs an heir, Sera."

Kane’s voice was a ghost in my ear, vibrating with that same reasonable, clinical tone he’d used to tell me he’d been fucking Elara for a year. "I did what was necessary," he whispered in the dark.

I jerked awake.

The air didn’t smell like Blackwater’s damp pine or the palace’s suffocating roses. It smelled like wet dog, woodsmoke, and a man I didn’t know. I was lying on a hard wooden floor that bounced and rattled, wrapped in a fur so heavy it felt like a l

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    320 I Won’t Say It

    SeraI held her eyes, level. "What do you want, Taya. You've paid your respects. You can go enjoy the rest of your night."The sympathy slid off her like it had never been fixed on. She held my eyes a moment, then she dipped her head, the picture of courtesy again. "Enjoy the feast, my Luna." She turned to go.She got one step and stopped.When she came back around the courtesy was gone off her face. What was under it was quieter than I expected, and worse for being quiet. Her eyes went to me, then to Mina, then back."My father hates you," she said plainly, like she was setting down a fact we both already owned. "He'd have fought you to his last breath. He told me so."I watched her and said nothing."And then." She stopped. Something worked at the corner of her mouth, and for a moment the hate in her had confusion tangled all through it, a daughter who couldn't make the pieces fit."Then he turns overnight. Now he's your dog. Moving through the keep making sure no one so much as loo

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    319 What Was That?

    Sera"What?""Do you think your brother would hurt you on purpose? Knowing it would get to you." I held her eyes. "Hurting Jace is hurting you. He knows that. He's not a stupid man and he loves you. So. Do you think he'd do that to you on purpose?"She was quiet for a while. Long enough that I let it sit."No," she said finally. "No. He wouldn't.""Then stop chewing your own hand off."She almost laughed. It came out broken, but it came out. Her shoulders dropped a finger's width. After a moment she reached into the bowl and took a berry, then another, and I let myself feel the small clean satisfaction of having talked one person I loved down off a ledge today. It was more than I'd managed for myself.My eyes went back to the doorway. I couldn't help it. Whatever Fenris was saying to him in there, I couldn't touch it from here, and I made myself not care. There was nothing Jace could tell my husband that would cost me anything. I'd handed Fenris the worst of it with my own mouth three

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    318 Do You Think Your Brother Would Hurt Him?

    SeraI watched my husband walk my friend's whole heart out of the hall with an arm around his neck, and I let none of it show. A Luna doesn't get to show things. That is the first thing this place taught me.Beside me Mina let out a breath that shook on the way out of her."To the gods," she said, low, "I hope he doesn't kill him.""You mean Fenris." I let a little amusement into it, because she needed me light, and because the alternative was letting her see I'd had the same thought for half a second before I'd put it away. "Your brother. The one you've trusted your whole life.""That's not fair.""It's a little fair." I picked at the edge of the board in front of me. "You don't trust him?""Of course I trust him." She was still watching the doorway they'd gone through, her hands flat on the table like she might push up out of the chair. "I trust him with me. I don't know what he wants with Jace. Isn't it too soon for this? They met two days ago. What's there to talk about that can't

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    317 The Smaller Animal

    JaceIt worried me more than the Alpha's nose did. I'd started telling myself the familiarity would help. Sera and I had always been easy with each other in the old days, cool and good, two clever people who recognized each other across a room full of people who weren't. I'd let myself believe that would carry. Sitting at that table with her eyes coming and going off me, I understood I'd miscounted. The woman across from me could end Blackwater's chances with a single quiet word in her husband's ear. She could refuse. She could stop the Alpha lifting a finger. She could, if she decided I was more trouble than I was worth, point a thousand Northern wolves down the mountain and there wouldn't be a Blackwater left to save, and it would cost her nothing.For one warm idiot second I thought about laying it out right there, while Fenris was full and easy and liked me. Raising Blackwater at the table, letting the Alpha's good humor do some of the work. I killed the thought before it finish

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    316 The Quiet Luna

    Jace"He asked you a simple question. You didn't have to be rude about it."Fenris considered his sister's hand on his, then her face, and there was no anger anywhere in him, only a kind of delighted bafflement that she'd struck the Alpha of the North over a southerner at a feast. "What? He does smell like a human." He spread his hand, appealing to the table, to Sera, to the air. "I'm not being cruel. I'm telling the man what my nose tells me. He's got the human world all over him.""It's the years," I said, because there was no use letting it sit. I kept it easy, kept my hands open on the table. "Five of them, in their cities. You live in that long enough, it gets into everything. Their soaps, their smoke, the stuff they put in the water and the cloth and the air. I stopped being able to smell it on myself a long time ago." I lifted one shoulder. "I'd take it as a fair complaint if I knew how to wash it off. I don't, anymore."That landed better than the question had. Fenris studied

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    315 The Outsider

    JaceThere was nothing polite about how the hall ate.I'd been to dinners that cost more than some of the packs I'd seen, rooms where a man could starve waiting for the third fork to be cleared, and I'd learned to move through them without showing I was counting the exits. This was the opposite of all of that. Long tables down the length of a hall built for it, fires roaring in two stone mouths, whole haunches of full lambs brought out on boards and torn apart by hand. No ceremony to the eating itself. They ripped the meat off the bone and washed it down and laughed with their mouths full and reached across each other for more, hundreds of them, loud enough that I had to lean in to hear the people beside me.Mina had me near the head of it. Fenris sat at the top with Sera at his side, and Mina and I were close in, a place of honor I understood the weight of and tried not to look grateful for. Across from us sat the elders, the high houses, the ones Mina had walked me past earlier in

    SeraNight fell fast, and with it, the temperature plummeted. We had three fires going, but the heat didn't seem to travel more than six inches past the flames. I sat on a log by the middle fire, pulling the wagon fur around my shoulders, shivering so hard my teeth were literally clicking together.

    LyraShe ignored me. She dropped to her knees, her hands sliding down to the waistband of my trousers. She shoved her fingers inside the fabric, gripping my hips tight. With one sharp pull, she dragged the pants and my underwear down to my ankles. I stepped out of them, kicking my boots off in the

    Lyra"Tell the girl to step into the room," he said."Leave her out of this," I said. My voice came out as a pathetic, raspy whisper. I cleared my throat, trying to find some spine. "She didn't do anything. It was my idea to come in here.""Tell her to step into the room," he said, his eyes going d

    LyraThe voice didn't belong to Nadia. It didn't belong to me. It came from the metallic object resting directly behind my hip.Nadia froze. She pulled her mouth away from me and yanked her fingers out of my body. She stood up quickly, wiping her wet mouth with the back of her hand, her chest heavi
