Azriel waited until the door closed behind him. "You're undermining my authority."

I almost crossed my arms over my chest, but I remember that my other hand was holding his. "I'm protecting your investigation."

He lifted his eyebrow. "From another continent?"

"From unnecessary travel expenses."

His gaze returned to our hands. "Is this how you intend to prevent me from reaching my study, hmm?"

"If necessary."

"You believe you can physically restrain me

    Mara's expression hardened. "Pain that prevents you from standing is not something you should be expected to normalize."The words sounded remarkably similar to Azriel's accusation.I looked between them. "Have the two of you prepared this conversation?""No," Mara said."Yes," Azriel answered at the same time.Her gaze moved toward him."I prepared for the possibility that my wife would attempt to dismiss something important.""I'm sitting directly beside you," I reminded him."I know."Mara handed me the medication with water and explained the dosage. She recommended warmth, rest, food, and continued hydration. A complete examination would be arranged if the pain continued worsening or if I experienced other symptoms.Azriel absorbed every instruction."Could yesterday's physical activity have intensified this?" he asked.I turned my head slowly.Mara's eyes moved from him to me.She

    The cramp released me slowly.It left behind a deep ache that stretched across my lower abdomen and settled inside my back. I remained curled beneath Azriel's arm, breathing carefully while I waited for the weakness in my legs to disappear.It didn't.Azriel continued sleeping behind me.His body remained warm against mine, one arm secured around my waist as though he had expected me to escape before morning. After the night we had spent beneath Northwood, he needed the rest more than either of us needed another argument about my ability to walk.I lifted his arm carefully.His breathing changed.I froze.Several seconds passed before it became steady again.I moved toward the edge of the mattress. Warmth gathered between my thighs, confirming what my calendar had already warned me would happen. The sheets would need to be changed, but that could wait until I reached the bathroom.My feet touched the floor.Azriel's hand closed around my wrist."Where are you going?"His voice remaine

  • My Sister Wore My Luna Ring, So I Married His Rival Alpha   Chapter 66: The Rest We Owed

    The sun had begun rising by the time we left Northwood.It spread a thin line of silver across the horizon, illuminating the frost along the forestry road and the Council vehicles stationed near the estate. Officers still moved between the house and the temporary evidence station. Northwood would remain sealed until every room, passage, and piece of ground had been documented.For once, I allowed the work to continue without me.Azriel and I entered the rear of the security vehicle while Dorian took the front seat. The door had barely closed before the weight of the night settled across my body.My back ached. A dull heaviness rested low inside my abdomen, easy to dismiss beneath the soreness already occupying the rest of me. Even my wolf had become quiet, no longer restless with suspicion or alert to every movement beyond the windows.She wanted sleep.So did I.The vehicle began moving.I rested my head against Azriel's shoulder.His attention lowered toward me, but he said nothing.

    I moved toward the hidden staircase.Azriel stepped into my path."No."The single word stopped me more effectively than his body did.I looked up at him. "Was that an order?""The Council clears the passage first.""You possess no enforcement authority inside this property.""Which is why I'm not entering before them either." His olive eyes moved toward the darkness beneath the stairs. "You may argue after they determine whether your uncle placed something more dangerous than dust beneath his library."The Council commander approached before I could answer. "Mr. Castellane is correct."Azriel's lips curved faintly.I pointed toward the opening. "Go before his expression becomes unbearable."Two neutral officers descended first. One carried a portable scanner while the other tested every step before placing his full weight on it. The stone staircase turned sharply beneath the foundation, preventing us from seeing farther than the first landing."No immediate threats," the first office

    The light remained behind Northwood's upper curtain for seven minutes.No shadow crossed the window. No second vehicle appeared through the trees. Whoever had opened the gates for Charles Savoy made no attempt to conceal that the house was occupied.They wanted us to know."The complete surveillance record has reached the Council," Isadora said.Her fingers moved across the tablet, attaching the archive consultation, Savoy's route, and the footage of Northwood's gates opening without an active security service. The evidence did not prove who waited inside. It only established that a supposedly abandoned Fairmont property had received a former attorney immediately after he confirmed the disappearance of a protected amendment.It was enough to ask for a warrant.Not enough to enter without one.Azriel's counsel had already prepared the application. The request contained none of the broad authority his investigators might have preferred. It permitted the Pack Council to identify Northwoo

    The name TRUST ARCHIVE SEVEN remained on the screen long after everyone inside the study became silent.My uncle had surrendered his authority seventeen years ago.Someone had kept one of his doors open.I read the access record again, searching for some limitation Dorian or Isadora had overlooked. Charles Savoy's dormant credential could not alter a beneficiary, transfer an asset, or destroy a protected document. It allowed him to do only one thing.Remove an original file from Silverpine's archive for seventy-two hours.In the wrong hands, three days were enough to replace a page, destroy a signature, or allow someone to study a record Silverpine had forgotten existed."When did Savoy submit the request?" I asked."Sixteen minutes ago," Isadora answered. "He marked it urgent and invoked the former-administration clause attached to the trust.""Can the archive director refuse it?""Not without executive intervention. The credential is valid."Valid.The word had become more dangerous
