She'd gone still. Not frightened still. The other kind. She had the bowl of stew in her two hands, absurdly, the thing she'd carried out of the kitchen to feed me, and she set it down on the nearest bench without a glance at it, and she straightened, and something came up in her that I'd been waiting our whole reunion to see arrive.

"He asked you a question, Taya," Mina said. "Which of them was coming for my arm. Go on. Tell the hall."

Taya's mouth opened.

"No." Mina took a step into her. "

    Sera"A little wolf-whelp hiding in the corner? Too bad daddy isn't here to save you, eh?" he sneered, as the basket fell away.Torchlight seared her eyes. Runa blinked, tears streaming down her face. A calloused hand clamped around her ankle, fingers biting deep."Mama!" she shouted. "Mama, no!" Her free foot lashed out desperately but found only empty air."Papa, help me!" The grip tightened, and she was dragged out, her back scraping painfully against the rough boards."Let go of me!" she screamed as she was pulled farther and farther from the trunk's meager shelter."Mama, Papa!" Her pleas only faded into desperate whimpers as she thrashed uselessly.She clawed desperately at the floor, at the trunk, at anything to stop this, but her fingers found no purchase. The hand on her ankle pulled again and she tumbled forward onto her face. Her palms burned as they slid over the blood-soaked wood. She kicked and struggled but it made no difference.She was dragged past the trunk...past th

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    Author's Note

    Hi,A few months ago, a school in my state was attacked, and all the schoolchildren were abducted.Kids. Children between the ages of 9 and 12.They spent days without their parents, were tortured, and had to watch their teachers get beheaded right in front of their eyes. Imagine a child having to see what a human being without a head looks like. Think about that, and let it sink in.Well… these monsters went as far as doing things to these children. Really bad things.They have been rescued. Thank God for that. But they are not the same. They don't look the same. They don't even look alive anymore.Just recently, a community was raided. A community close to a college. You should understand what I'm trying to say…It was mostly youths. And the particular dorm that was raided was occupied mostly by females. They were raped, and some were killed.I don't know why I'm saying this. Maybe it's because of the current arc of the book. Maybe I derailed a little.But I live in constant fear.So

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    479 What Do We Have Here?

    SeraTorvald's eyes fell on Ilse's broken body, and something inside him shattered. With a desperate, anguished howl, he dropped to all fours and fully surrendered to the wolf. His joints shifted, thick gray fur sprouted across his skin, his face elongated into a muzzle filled with razor-sharp teeth. The massive wolf, drooling and snarling, charged forward.Torvald clawed his way through the snapping, slavering horde, his powerful jaws tearing at man and wolf alike, crushing bones, rending flesh. Crimson droplets sprayed the walls and floor. His sole impulse was to reach the trunk, to shield his child, to conceal her from the ruthless invaders.

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    478 She Was Dead

    Sera"Now!"The grey wolf came for him like a boulder tumbling down a mountain, massive, unstoppable.Torvald's hands grew claws, his jaw elongated, teeth sharpening. He swung the spear before him as the grey wolf slammed into his chest. Claws scraped armor-hard fur. Torvald grunted from the force of the blow, spear tip skidding across a collarbone. He dug his heels into the boards, bracing against the impact.He met the wolf, spear flashing, cla

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    477 Bandits

    Sera"You know, this is a decent size place," the leader said, stepping in through the broken doorway. He surveyed the room, pacing slowly.The wolves followed him into the room. One grey, one russet, one brindle. The grey one's head swung low, its muzzle brushing past the edge of the bed. The russet one padded silently to the hearth, sniffing at the banked fire. They reeked of charred fur and acrid smoke, their claws clicking and scoring the rough boards.The grey one paused beside Torvald, who stood stiff and silent between the door and the trunk. Torva

  • My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian    476 Be Quiet

    Sera"Runa," her mother whispered harshly. "Wake up." The girl stirred under Ilse's urgent grip, pulling herself out of dreamless sleep. Her fingers tightened on the little carved bird in her hand. "What...what's happening?" she mumbled. Ilse's hands shook her, hard. "Shh. Quiet, Runa, quiet!" Something was very wrong.From outside came strange noises...men's shouts, the splinter of wood, a dog howling in terror. A scream ripped through the night, echoing in the darkness...and was cut off.It was the sound of death. I knew it. She did not.The girl heard them and I felt her go stiff. Her mother was already up, moving soundlessly to her father. He went to the shutter and pulled it open just enough to look out, one eye pressed to the gap. Ilse waited, her face a mask of fear."What is it?" she whispered when he didn't move. "Torvald?"He closed the shutter and turned to her. "Bandits," he said shortly. "They're burning the houses."Ilse gasped. The girl had no breath left to gasp. Fi

    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
