Eating. Talking. Meeting people. Slow dancing to the music the orchestra was playing.

All around us the celebration burned brightly, the palace hall a whirl of gowns and silks, laughter spilling like wine, the scent of roasted venison mingling with the sweetness of candied fruits. Crystal glasses chimed. Men and women clung to one another as though the world itself existed only in their dance.

But Diana and I? We weren't doing any of this.

We sat in the section reserved for the council, rather brainstorming—nothing mattered more than the mystery of what had truly happened to me that fateful night, almost a year ago.

The night of my supposed death. The night I should have been gone. The memory clung to me like smoke, always just behind my ribs.

Diana's eyes glittered, reflecting the golden chandeliers above us. She leaned closer, her tone sharp though quiet. "Do you think they were controlled? Like pawns in a game? But who would do it? What vendetta would the person have against you?"

  • Nemesis Of The Lycan Triplets   Twice Bitten

    Ten minutes was up, and so was my patience. I stood from the seat and started toward the door, willfully trying to put aside my anger. Perhaps the Lycan King had better plans for Adam, better people for him to meet. I shouldn't be angry. But it was futile. The annoyance slashed through me, beating against my head, pounding against my common sense.Hadn't he said five minutes? Couldn't he have obtained an excuse from his father?I hissed softly when the door opened just before I reached it. Adam stepped in, carrying a tray of food and drinks."I'm sorry…" he started, his smile faltering when he realized I had just been about to leave. "My father wanted to introduce me to some people. I got away as soon as I could."I thought as much. Still, I made a move to get past him, determined to walk out of the hall. I wouldn't be disrespected by anyone."Dora, please…"His plea, combined with the tender apology in his eyes, was enough to quell my feelings for the moment. I sighed audibly, exag

    The little hall was unlike the grand palace rooms filled with chandeliers and gold trims. It carried a different kind of weight, one that pressed down on me the moment I stepped inside. The air here was still, reverent, like it belonged to centuries of whispered confessions and stern judgments. Benches were arranged in neat rows on both sides, polished by the constant brushing of anxious hands and restless shifting. At the far end sat a raised dais, a long carved table perched upon it, where I imagined men in robes had sat in judgment over disputes that could tear families apart. The high ceiling made the room feel vast despite its modest width, its beams etched with curling sigils that seemed to breathe faintly in the low lamplight. The walls, bare except for two torches flickering on either side, seemed to absorb sound, muting even the shuffle of my own shoes. It was a place that demanded silence, demanded truth, even when truth was inconvenient. "You spoke like you didn't know

    "Do you want to get out of here?"Adam's eyes scanned the hall lazily, though I could tell it was more calculated than it looked. They roved past the glittering chandeliers, the long tables heavy with fruits and wine, the crowd swaying to the music. And then they landed back on me, catching me in that way of his. His brow rose when I tilted my head slightly, not answering at once."What?" I shrugged lightly, as though he'd asked me the most ridiculous question. "Where do you want to take me? And before you wear your gallivanting gear, let me make one thing very clear—I am not interested in sleeping with you tonight."He smirked.My mouth curled. "Or ever."But if anything, the smirk deepened, not at all deterred. "You keep denying the chemistry between us," he said, voice low, as though we weren't surrounded by a hundred drunken guests."That's because there is no chemistry between us," I snapped back, halting where I stood–no more dancing. "None. Zero. Zilch."Don't these people ev

    Adam stood rigid, jaw taut, balled fists by his sides, his eyes unreadable as they stared at his brother. His expression was a storm barely contained, almost thunderous—he was trying, and failing, to look calm, unbothered, civil. I thought it was funny, then strange. Why would he look like that? It's not like Noah and I were copulating on the dance floor; we were just dancing.My eyes found the woman he had been dancing with; she was frowning in confusion, and for a second I thought, playfully, that she might have had a crush on him. Meanwhile, the crowd was beginning to notice the standoff, their feet shifting uneasily, probably because it was bad luck for public disagreements to erupt during the auspicious feast meant to celebrate the goddess. I noticed too that the music faltered, the musicians hesitant, seeing as Noah and I had stopped dancing with Adam's intrusion.Even the Lycan King was watching, saying nothing, revealing nothing. He really must want me for Adam, I mused, unm

  • Nemesis Of The Lycan Triplets   Celebration IV

    This was my last night at the pack, and the night where all festivities reached their highest height. The splendor was unlike anything from the days before. We were in the largest pack hall, located in the eastern wing of the king's palace, and it was a masterpiece of overwhelming taste.Was this necessary to celebrate the goddess too? I wondered, looking around the hall for the umpteenth time.The hall was too much in every possible way—tastefully furnished, yes, but perhaps excessively so. Long chandeliers hung from the arched ceiling, dripping with hundreds of crystals that refracted the golden glow of enchanted lanterns. Each wall was adorned with heavy drapes of deep crimson velvet embroidered with threads of silver that caught the light whenever anyone walked past. On the far end, just behind the high platform reserved for the royal family, a mural of the moon goddess dominated the entire wall—her hands spread in blessing, silver paint catching the flicker of flame from doze
