I watched Torin.

The brine had moved with the small currents in the bath when the door had opened, and the surface had settled again, and what I had in front of me was a man in pieces under a layer of yellow water. The left arm was gone at the shoulder. The right arm was whole below the elbow, but the elbow itself was a flat working joint with hide grown back over the moving parts — Madra's work, slow patient layers laid down across.

The chest was not the chest of a man who had been intact a m

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    374 Settled

    Fenris "...and may the gods of war have mercy on his soul."I smirked. The gods didn't give a damn for anyone's soul.The two of them were back up, circling each other, hands up, snarling like dogs. Ossian came at him with a wild swing, and Fenn caught the arm and yanked it down, trying to flip the bigger man onto his back.Ossian caught himself, and the two of them were tangled together, fighting for grip.I watched them, half amused, while Jace stared like a man seeing a wild bear for the first time. His eyes were wide, and I could smell his heartbeat. I wasn't sure whether it was fear or excitement. He didn't know this kind of fight was good for the pack.The crowd had formed a full circle now, a dozen men on each side, all shouting, and the two fighters in the center. The fire crackled and spat, and I could smell the roasting meat, the smell of the forest and the pine trees and the fresh air.I could smell Jace, a strange scent for these woods, like smoke and citrus and salt.The

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    373 May The God’s Have Mercy On His Soul

    FenrisThe sun sank fast in these parts, going from sky to darkness in a blink. I called the stop at the edge of a clearing where a creek ran through, and the men were off their horses and moving in a second. I'd made ride like this a hundred times, and there was no need to tell them what to do.The smell of pine and sweat hung heavy in the cold air as we worked. Ossian and Fenn hauled up a fallen tree to make firewood, cursing as they dropped the heavy trunk and sawed through the branches. Jace and a few others made short work of the tents, but the Southerner was moving a little slower than the rest, hands numb from the cold and the long ride."You good?" I asked him as I unsaddled my horse."Yeah, just need to warm up." He nodded at the others. "How long before they're done?"I shrugged. "Depends how much they want to eat."Ossian and Fenn dragged a deer carcass through the trees, gutted and hanging by its legs from a pole, and the argument started as soon as they dropped it near th

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    372 You’re Going To End It

    SeraMina's grip on my arm was painful as she yanked me out of the hall and into a narrow storage nook beside the kitchen. The space was dim and dusty, smelling of old grain, and not quite big enough for both of us. The door scraped shut behind us, and Mina turned to face me. For a long moment, she just looked at me, hands clenched at her sides, and I wondered what I was in for.I broke first, still running hot from the confrontation. "Fucking Taya," I muttered, shaking my head. "I know, right? I was already getting tired of that stupid fucking grin of hers, but I never would have thought she'd actually call a duel. That sneaky bitch."I rolled my eyes at the memory and glanced up at Mina, who still hadn't spoken, waiting for some kind of response. But there was nothing on her face, just an absolute stillness, and it unsettled me.She slapped me.I felt the shock of the slap before I registered the sting of it. It came out of nowhere - Mina had her arm out and her hand cracking across

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    371 See You Soon

    Sera"Stop," Mina snapped. She grabbed Taya by the shoulders and spun her around to face her, shoving between us. "You will not do this."But the crowd didn't stop. More pack members arrived from both ends of the corridor, drawn by the chanting. The hallway filled with the crush of bodies until there was barely room to breathe. Taya's eyes danced over the sea of faces. The chant rose to a roar."Fight! Fight! Fight!""She can't back down now," a rough voice called from the back of the crowd. "She's the Luna!""Put her in her place Luna!!"Taya's smile widened going ear to ear. "See, Luna. They want this. We can't deny them a good fight now.""You are not going to do this," Mina growled, her nails digging into Taya's shoulders. "Not in my kitchens. I won't have it!""I don't know why you'd want to stop a good fight," someone else called out. "The Luna will win!""Shut your face!" Mina at the voice.The crowd swells, and I could feel their weight behind Taya. More voices rose — "Fight!

    Sera"Or what, you'll beat me up again?" Taya snarled.I wanted to laugh. The fact that she was bringing that up was genuinely funny.Mina stepped between us, breaking Taya's hold and shoving a hand to her chest. "Back off, Taya." Mina's voice was a growl. "You know what being Luna means. You know what happens when the Alpha finds out you put your stinking hand on his mate. You're courting death, Taya."That wasn't enough to make Taya back down. Her eyes were wild with fury and something else, something bewildered, and I knew I was looking at a girl who couldn't understand her own self."How does my father end up on your side of everything," she said, her voice shaking with rage. "Why does he just agree to whatever you say. He hates you southerners, but he's letting you run the pack. I don't get it. He just... he just..."Mina was between us, her back to me. Her voice came out level but tight."Whatever you think, Kael knows better than to cross the Luna. You should know it too. This i

    Sera"Oh, this isn't over. I'm not finished with you."Taya's hand came out and caught my arm, stopping me from going. The composure from a moment ago was gone from her face entirely.I winced as she yanked me around to face her, the rough stone wall scraping my back. Taya's breath was hot against my cheek, and I could see the rage in her eyes. The polished words were gone now."You Southern bitch," she spat, and I could hear the venom in her voice. "You came up here and stole my place, and you think you own it?" Her words were raw and angry, the mask finally off. "You've never had any right to be Luna of Ironmaw. You don't belong here, you filthy outsider. You don't deserve anything here!"Mina snarled behind me, her hand tight on my shoulder, but I could feel the bond in my chest telling me I needed to stay calm. I needed to be the Alpha.I stared back at Taya, my jaw set. "Let go of me," I said, my voice steady and cold."You want me to let you go?" Taya laughed harshly, her nails

    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

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
