Jack’s POV

Tristan came into my office before breakfast, and I knew something was wrong from the way he moved. He usually had the decency to look merely irritated when forced to do anything before eating. This morning he looked furious in a way that made him seem cornered.

I set the report down. “What happened?”

He closed the doo

  • Once Lost, Twice Found   Chapter 51: Fear Is Enough

    Logan’s POVBy noon, half of Silverstone had heard that Blackwood was searching for its Gamma. By evening, the story had changed three times. Mara Hale had vanished without warning, abandoned Blackwood after fighting with her Alpha, or fled because Jack Blackwood had become unstable and his ranked wolves were turning against him. The last version was my favorite.At the edge of the lower training grounds, two warriors traded details as if they had watched Mara leave. One claimed Blackwood had sent people after her. The other insisted it was a full search party. “That’s what I heard,” the first said. “Something is wrong over there,” the second replied.I hid a smile. Something was wrong everywhere lately. Ann had run from Silverstone, and now Mara had left Blackwood. Two women leaving powerful packs within weeks of each other was all bored wolves needed to invent a rebellion. I walked past as their voices dropped, as though speaking quietly made the gossip more private.“My sister says

  • Once Lost, Twice Found   Chapter 50: Even Angry

    Ann’s POVI knew something was wrong before Jack even opened his mouth. He walked into the sitting room with his shoulders tight and his jaw clenched hard enough for me to see the muscle jump beneath his skin. I had been sitting by the window, a cup of tea cooling between my hands as I watched the late morning light spill across the gardens. The second I saw him, I stopped mid-sip, my tea instantly forgotten.“Jack?” I asked.For a second the anger in his face softened, only slightly. “Mara left,” he said.I blinked. “What?”“She left Blackwood sometime after midnight.” I stared at him, sure I had heard him wrong. “Left?”“We don’t know yet whether she left the pack or went somewhere else,” he said. I frowned. That made even less sense. Mara had spent weeks acting like Blackwood belonged to her more than anyone else. She never let anyone forget that she was Gamma, that she had earned her place, and that I was the outsider. And now she had just walked away?“When?” I ventured.“Just af

  • Once Lost, Twice Found   Chapter 49: Planned

    Jack’s POVTristan came into my office before breakfast, and I knew something was wrong from the way he moved. He usually had the decency to look merely irritated when forced to do anything before eating. This morning he looked furious in a way that made him seem cornered.I set the report down. “What happened?”He closed the door behind him. “Mara is gone.”For a second I thought I had misheard him. “Gone where?”“She left sometime during the night.”My jaw tightened. “You don’t know where?”He shook his head. There was more than anger on his face; it was different, heavier. I told him

  • Once Lost, Twice Found   Chapter 48: Home

    Mara’s POVTristan fell asleep before I did. That should have made leaving easier, but it didn’t. I lay beside him in the dark, staring at the ceiling as his breathing deepened and the room grew still around us. For hours, I kept telling myself I was still going. The kiss had changed nothing. Staying for one night because Tristan asked me to did not mean I had forgotten why I packed my bag in the first place.I needed answers, not guesses. I did not need Jack’s blind faith or another warning from Tristan that I would destroy everything if I kept digging. Logan Fisher was looking for a woman who was young, small, brown haired, and frightened. Someone had vanished from Silverstone around the same time Ann turned up in Jack’s vehicle. Maybe it was not her. But if it was, I needed to know why Silverstone’s Beta was searching for her. I had to find out before Jack grew so attached to Ann that nothing I uncovered would matter.Moonlight spilled across Tristan’s face. He looked different when

  • Once Lost, Twice Found   Chapter 47: Stay

    Tristan’s POVI knew something was wrong the moment I saw the open drawers. Mara never left anything half finished; not reports, not weapons, and definitely not packing. But there she stood in the middle of her quarters, clothes spread across the bed, a travel bag gaping at her feet, and half her wardrobe already gone. “What are you doing?”She didn’t turn. “I am leaving.”“What?” I asked, frowning.Mara shoved another shirt into the bag. “You heard me. I am fucking leaving.”I stepped inside and shut the door behind me. “No. I heard a stupid answer. So I’m asking again.” That made her whirl around. Anger blazed in her eyes. Good. I could handle Mara angry; what I couldn’t handle was the cold distance in her gaze, the look of someone already halfway gone.“I am leaving, Tristan.” She laughed, but there was nothing funny in it. “Because apparently I don’t have a place here anymore.”My expression tightened. I crossed the room and caught the bag before she could close it. “Let go.”“No,

  • Once Lost, Twice Found   Chapter 46: As If Permission Mattered

    Ann’s POVJack was gone for less than ten minutes. He returned carrying a tray crowded with enough food for three people and set it on the low table beside the sofa.“What is all that?” I asked.“Dinner.” He began arranging bread, roasted vegetables, chicken, fruit, and two bowls of soup. “For you and me. After the argument, I figured that we could use the peace of eating together, you know?”I stared at the spread. “Are you expecting Tristan?”“No.”“Then this is too much.”“Careful. That almost sounded like a complaint.” Jack’s mouth twitched. “And since I’m guessing you skipped lunch, you and the pups need the nutrition, so eat.”“I’m not complaining.”“Good.” He sat as if the last hour had not included an argument about trust, an investigation into my past, and the awful thing I had said about dying for him. Somehow, despite all of it, he had still remembered dinner.A few weeks ago, I would have wondered whether I was allowed to eat in his office or whether taking a second piece
