The steward had sent word the moment their carriage came through the gate. Two survivors, he'd said. I'd had enough time to decide, before they walked in, that two was a more interesting number than three.

The door opened. Irina first, then the captain behind her. He pulled it shut with both hands. I set down the letter I was reading and looked at them — and then at the space behind the captain's shoulder where the door had closed.

"Where's Torin?"

It was the captain who answered. He said

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    578 Say It Again

    MinaKane was still silent. I felt nothing for his humiliation. But I watched the chiefs' faces harden. They would punish Sera for this, and my brother. Fucking disaster, and it was only just beginning.Elara's voice was small and shaking beside me. "Every day I lived in fear of him." A long pause, then she continued."I was scared of the day he'd decide I wasn't worth it anymore and put me out. Just like he did Sera."My eyes darted to Sera's face.Elara was crying now. I was close enough to see how her face crumpled, close enough to catch the salt of her tears. "I never wanted to do this." Her voice wavered. "I never wanted to hurt anyone."She turned her head and looked back at Sera. Sera sat stone still, staring right back at her. For a second I thought I saw a smirk on her face, but then it was gone. I couldn't be sure."I'm sorry," Elara said. "I'm so sorry, Sera. He made me do it. Please, you have to believe me."Elara kept apologizing, over and over. I didn't buy a bloody word

    MinaThe hall erupted into a chorus of disdain. Every eye focused on Kane, angry muttering rolling from table to table.Kane shook his head. "No no no... None of this makes sense. She wasn't even..."Fenris laughed, short. "It is disgusting, you trying to defend yourself."His laugh reverberated across the stone hall, echoing off the walls.Fenris turned to the hall. "How he runs his pack is none of my business. How he treats his own is none of my business. But she is my mate now. And he is standing in my hall asking for my help." He let that sit. "If he wants help, he pays first. Is that not so?"The hall roared back: "Yes!" Fists on tables, horns banging.Fenris nodded, turned back to Kane, and raised a hand. The hall quieted down gradually, voices still grumbling but dying away."Alpha Kane believes we are falsely accusing him," Fenris said. "I would hate to be the reason anyone looks at him wrongly, for something he did not do." A pause. "So. Alpha Kane. There is someone here who

    Mina"Fuck me, what in the bloody hell is Fenris doing now?" I muttered under my breath. "He never calls anyone up to the High Table without a damn good reason. And that's going to cost. The chiefs at this table are not going to take this well."Kane's boots clomped on the stone steps up to the dais, echoing through the Great Hall. He was sweating hard in the hot light from the braziers.His coat hung loose off his shoulders, and his collar was frayed. The rings under his eyes were dark. His hands were clenched into fists at his sides. His nails were digging into his palms.He reached the top of the steps and swallowed hard. His gaze darted around the hall as he walked the last few steps to the High Table. His eyes settled on Fenris.Fenris smiled at him, soft and amused. It was a look I knew well. It meant he was playing at something. He turned Kane to face the hall and raised his voice."This is Kane, the Alpha of Blackwater," he said. "I invite you to welcome him."Fenris turned ba

    KaneFury twisted in my gut. I willed my claws not to unsheathe. A bitter laugh threatened to spill from my lips at this mockery of a celebration.Vidar had told me this morning. "The Alpha's mate carries a pup." The words still roared in my head, refusing to be silenced. At least I'd had a few hours to swallow my anger before the feast. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't push down the thought that gnawed at me.Whose pup had Elara lost?Fenris stepped forward. "Thank you, all, for coming to celebrate tonight."I snorted. Celebrate."My mate carries a pup," Fenris said. "To the Luna's child!"Jace shoved a horn into my empty hand. "Raise it," he hissed. He nudged me with his elbow.I took the horn, my fingers curling around it reluctantly."Come on, man, before they see you," Jace muttered, his eyes darting around the hall.My jaw clenched.Sera's belly would soon swell with the life inside. Her breasts would be heavy with milk. She would grow round and ripe, the image of a devote

    JaceMore time passed. The feast rolled on, raucous. Ossian at a near table tried to balance a full horn on his head, tilting it back and forth, a crowd of rowdy Northmen laughing at him, calling out bets.Two men arm-wrestled at another table and a bench went over. Bones and bread crusts littered the floor. A server came by with platters piled high with roasted meat. I inhaled deeply and my stomach growled in response.Then my head whipped towards the great doors and my fingers tightened hard on my horn.A figure strode in, his dark hair damp and gleaming under the torches. The collar of his clean shirt showed above his furs.I kept my gaze on him, my mind working. The memory of our last encounter, of his shove and insult, flared. I remembered the anger in his eyes.Now those eyes were fixed straight ahead, ignoring the hubbub around him. I tracked his progress across the hall before finally looking down at the horn in my hand."So, who's that?" Kane asked, catching me staring. I swa

    JaceI stepped through the high doors and Mina's arm tightened on mine as the noise of the hall hit us, the clang of knives on plates, a dog's sharp bark, men laughing and women shouting orders. The heat seeped into my bones, carrying the rich smell of roasting fat. The feast was already going strong.Mina glanced up at me, eyes narrowing. "You eat anything today?"I patted my coat.She snorted. "That bread? You can't live on crumbs and air.""Worked so far," I said dryly."Shut up," she said, and kissed my cheek, sharp and quick. "I have to get up on the dais before my brother sits down. Eat something."I squeezed her hand. "Go on."She squeezed back and headed up the long aisle between the benches, her skirts swishing. I watched her go, the stubborn set of her shoulders.I took a few steps down the aisle, weaving between the long benches. I passed a pair of children chasing each other through the rows, shrieking with laughter. The noise of the feast pounded in my ears. Halfway to th

    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
