Please Keep Your Alpha On A Leash Chapter 106: Judgment
KieranBy noon, the council chamber was full.I had invited most of the elders. Rhett. Colter. Senior warriors. Sabine. Esther. Three members responsible for territory welfare and finances.Cyrus and Garrick attended because Ravenholt had been directly involved in the hunter investigation.Alden stood behind Cyrus, looking unusually distracted.I suspected Tessa.I decided that was not my problem today.Selene sat alone near the far end of the table.Cassian sat under guard. No Beta insignia. No weapons. No authority.Nothing that distinguished him from any other wolf except the fact that almost everyone in the room wanted something terrible done to him.I remained standing. “This is not a trial to determine guilt.”The room quieted.“Cassian has admitted what he did.”Nobody looked at him.“He knowingly supplied patrol routes, security schedules, access points, camera blind spots, guard rotations, and my personal movements to people he understood intended to kill me.”One elder’s fac
Please Keep Your Alpha On A Leash Chapter 105: You Can’t Just Build Me a Clinic
Mara“You can’t just build me a clinic.”Kieran leaned against the edge of my desk like he had not just suggested relocating my entire professional life.“I’m starting to think you underestimate what owning a large amount of land allows me to do.”“That is not the point.”“It seems at least partially related.”I stared at him.He smiled.I hated that smile.Mostly because it was attached to a man who had somehow taken my impossible choice and turned it into an architectural project.“You’re serious.”“Very.”“Kieran, veterinary clinics have permits. Licensing. Inspections.”“I assume so.”“Zoning.”“That one I actually checked.”I stopped. “You checked?”His expression shifted. “You weren’t the first person who pointed out that your current location isn’t exactly defensible.”“When did you check?”“After the first time armed men came looking for me.”I folded my arms. “So you’ve been secretly researching veterinary zoning?”“I have people.”“That is such an Alpha answer.”“It’s an eff

MaraThe folder sat on my desk like it had personally offended me.I had opened it three times. Closed it three times. Moved it to the other side of the desk. Moved it back.Kieran had watched all of this without saying a word.That was almost worse.Finally, I looked at him. “You’re being very quiet.”“I’m trying something new.”“What?”“Not interrupting you while you argue with stationery.”I glared.His mouth twitched.I picked up the folder again.INTERIM LUNA APPOINTMENT — TWELVE MONTH TERMUnderneath that was the part that had nearly made me drool.Full access to restricted healer archives.Historical treatment records.Rare disease documentation.Silver exposure cases.Shift complications.Reproductive medicine.Old surgical techniques.Two hundred years of werewolf medical history that humans did not even know existed.It was obscene. It was cruel. It was absolutely working.“They’re bribing me.”“They know their audience.”“That doesn’t make it less manipulative.”“No. It mak
Please Keep Your Alpha On A Leash Chapter 101: No Longer Beta
KieranCassian knew before I said anything.I could see it in his face when I walked into the treatment room carrying the small wooden box that had been delivered from the main house.His Beta insignia sat inside.So did his territory access token.His security credentials.The keys he had carried for fifteen years.Mara had cleared him medically that morning for short periods of sitting upright, which apparently meant he had immediately decided he no longer needed to listen to her.He was sitting on the edge of the exam table when I entered.“You’re supposed to be lying down.”Cassian glanced at me. “You sound like Mara.”“Terrifying, isn't it?”“Deeply.”Then he saw the box.The humor disappeared.I set it beside him.Neither of us spoke for several seconds.Finally Cassian said, “You should’ve done this years ago.”My jaw tightened. “No.”He looked at me. “You should have never given me the position.”“That isn't true.”“Kieran—”“You were a good Beta.”His expression twisted. “Unt

KieranBy noon, Cassian was asleep again. Good. Because I still didn’t know what the fuck to do with him.I stood in Mara’s office with Rhett, Colter, Cyrus, Garrick, and Mara while Tessa guarded the front desk and Alden guarded Tessa pretending he wasn’t guarding Tessa.Cassian’s Beta credentials sat on Mara’s desk. Phone access revoked. Security clearances terminated. Command authority suspended. His weapons had already been removed. It still didn’t feel like enough.“He committed treason,” Rhett said.“I know.”“He knowingly provided assassination intelligence. He released the hunters.”"I know all of that."Rhett folded his arms. “Then under pack law, you know the punishment.”Death. Nobody needed to say it. Cyrus apparently had no problem saying it. “Ravenholt would have executed him already.”Garrick glanced at him. “Probably before breakfast.”Mara stared. “Your territory sounds delightful.”Cyrus shrugged. “Efficient.”I rubbed my face. “He also tried to stop them.”Rhett’s e
Please Keep Your Alpha On A Leash Chapter 101: Three Years
SeleneI had known Cassian loved me. Not from the beginning. I wasn't that observant. But eventually.A look that lasted too long. A hand withdrawn too quickly. The way he always seemed to know when I wanted everyone else gone.For years, neither of us said anything. Then three years ago, we stopped pretending. I had not regretted it. Until now.Kieran found me upstairs in Mara's apartment. He didn't come all the way into the room."He told me."I stared out the window. "About my mother?""Yes.""And?"Silence. I turned.Kieran looked exhausted. "He knew."My stomach dropped. "Knew what?""What the hunters were hired to do."I already knew the answer.Still, I asked. "Kill you?""Yes."The room tilted. I sat. Kieran remained near the doorway."He gave them Miller Road."I stared at him. The road where Kieran had been shot."He gave them patrol schedules. Camera blind spots. Building access.""No.""Yes.""He wouldn't."Kieran's expression didn't change. "He admitted it."I looked away
