Skye

Something has changed in the house.

I can't point to the exact moment. It wasn't the shared moment in the hallway, or the awkward breakfast after, or the garden conversation with Jaxon about Ironwood. It wasn't Nicolai asking me to be visible or the sitting room where he came in and saw Jaxon and I together and didn't walk away.

It was an accumulation of all those things. The way water changes a rock—not visible in any single day, but undeniable when you step back and look at the shape of

  • Pursuing My Rejected Luna   Chapter 209

    SkyeHome. The estate closes around me the moment we cross the threshold—the specific warmth of it, the scent of it, the particular quality of a place that has become yours without you noticing the exact moment it happened.I'm home. And there’s no denying my heat is here. Fully, completely, with the vengeance of biology that’s waited eleven months and is not interested in waiting any longer. My wolf is awake and certain and has decided she’s been patient long enough.Nicolai carries me straight to the bedroom and closes the door behind us. And it finally sinks in. “Us” means both of them. Here. With me.For the first time since this whole impossible year began, nobody is tiptoeing around the truth of what we are. Nobody is being careful. No one is performing patience or restraint or the careful choreography of three people who care about each other trying not to break anything.It's just us.Nicolai speaks first, setting me carefully on my feet but not allowing much space between us.

    Jaxon As expected, the route through the house is not clean either. Two more of Savin's people loom between us and the exit. Nicolai handles one. I handle the other. Skye, behind us, does something useful to a third man who appears from a side door that we weren't expecting—she gets an elbow into his throat with the precision of someone who has been waiting for an opportunity and takes it the moment it presents itself.Nicolai and I both look at her with a mix of awe and bewilderment"My father's pack," she shrugs. "He insisted. And this asshole is one of the men who dragged me here.""Good," I nod like a bobblehead doll. “That’s… good. "Remind me to thank Marco," Nicolai adds, pulling Skye behind him, protecting her from any future unseen threats.We keep moving. The service road exit is an exterior door on the property's northwestern face—maintenance access, not on Savin's standard security map because it was added when the property was retrofitted twelve years ago and whoever dre

    Jaxon“Fucking piece of shit!” I growl, barely stifling the urge to rip the failing comm out of my ear and crush it under my boot.The signal died and I'm on the second floor, too far from the action to know what’s happening with any certainty. I can hear movement below me, heavy footsteps pounding the floor, moving rapidly. Shit has obviously gone sideways. I just can’t tell what or how badly. Nicolai is somewhere below them with Skye—I heard her voice, which is, I try to remind myself, the thing that matters. She's alive and moving and giving him grief about something, which means she's okay enough to give grief. I should find that reassuring but the entire facility is mobilizing around a situation that stopped being under our control about three minutes ago.I have no clear path to the basement stairs and Nicolai needs help now. According to the blueprint, I can get there in about fifteen seconds if I go through the room to my left. But there’s three men in the room I’d have to go

  • Pursuing My Rejected Luna   Chapter 206

    NicolaiI’m certain I’ve found the right room. The one where my mate and the love of my life is being held as a pawn in a game she never signed up for. My mind is trying to drag me down the path of despair, force me to think about what I might find behind the locked door. But I don’t have time for that right now.Without deciding to do so, I’ve already pulled out the key—the type our intelligence identified these doors use. He better fucking be right! To my relief, the door swings open. But it wasn’t my key that opened it. The door was already unlocked.I don't have time to think about why. Because she's there. On the floor, hands behind her back, working at something with focused intensity—and then she sees me and the expression on her face is relief and fury and something else that I file for later because there's no time now.Her wrists. I see them for one second before I look away, because I need to be functional and what I see on her wrists will interfere with functional if I le

    NicolaiThe plan is as clean as we can make it based on the limited intel we have. Thankfully, It’s not my first time infiltrating a heavily secured building whose layout I know very little about and can only make assumptions. I know what a clean plan looks like. I've run operations with the deck stacked against me before. Against people who were expecting me, with resources that didn't cover the gap between what I needed and what I had. I know the difference between a plan that works and a plan that looks like it works.This one works. It has to. We pull off the dirt road, into an abandoned field near our target but still far enough away not to be detected. It’s where we’ll leave most of our vehicles while we go the rest of the way on foot. Everyone exits their vehicles and crowds around mine for one last briefing before we go in. “Entry will be from the eastern access point.” I call out, pointing at the map spread out on the hood of my SUV. “Secondary team waits on the perimeter—e

    SkyeMinutes pass that feel like hours after Savin leaves me to ruminate on his not-so-veiled threat. Instead, I'm calculating the door—the hinges, the lock, whether there's anything in this room that could be useful—when I hear the footsteps on the stairs again.Too light for Savin. Too controlled for his goons. I can’t even venture a guess who this new person might be but I’m not looking forward to another visitor to my dungeon. Then the door opens and Tatiana Volkov steps inside. If I thought I was unenthused before, I’m downright apathetic now. Nicolai’s ex-lover is the last thing I need to be dealig with right now. I know her immediately, of course. She's exactly as I remember from the estate—beautiful, polished, the kind of woman who moves through spaces like she expects them to rearrange around her.She looks at me on the floor of this basement room and her expression is—gleeful might be too strong a word, but not by much. She's been planning this moment. I can see it in the

  • Pursuing My Rejected Luna   Chapter 72

    SkyeI stare at Jaxon standing on the terrace, and something inside me finally breaks. Not with drama or tears. Not with shouting or accusations. I no longer have the energy or the emotional investment for those antics. Those were for a younger Skye.This older, more world-weary Skye just... breaks.

    JaxonWhen I left Skye the note saying I was leaving on pack business, it was a lie.I drove to my family's cabin in the mountains instead—a place I haven't been since before I took over for my father as Alpha. It’s the only place far enough from the pack that I could think without the weight of res

    SkyeI knew Jaxon went through my phone the minute I stepped out of the bathroom.I could tell by the way it's placed on the nightstand—screen down instead of up, shifted slightly from where I left it.He knows I've been in contact with Nicolai.And I know the confrontation is coming.It happens at

  • Pursuing My Rejected Luna   Chapter 16

    SkyeThe rumors spread faster than I anticipated.Despite Jaxon's best efforts to contain the narrative—carefully worded statements to the elders, strategic conversations with influential pack members—the truth has a way of seeping through cracks. By the end of my first week back, everyone knows th
