Senna

Rhea has been acting weird for three weeks. Every time I look up from my herbs, she is staring at me with big, nervous eyes.

"Do you need something, Rhea?" I ask. I am counting dried lavender.

Rhea jumps. She is holding a long piece of paper with our supply list on it. Her hands are shaking just a little bit. She looks at the door to make sure no one is coming in. The infirmary is quiet today. It smells like old dust and sharp vinegar.

"Can I ask you something personal?" Rhea says. Her vo

  • REBORN TO BREAK YOU   CHAPTER 47: LYRA IN THE CROSSFIRE

    SennaThe sound of the soup tray hitting the floor was louder than any scream. “Watch where you’re going, girl,” a man named Kol said. He was a mid-level wolf, the kind who thinks being ranked means he can be a bully.He didn’t just trip her. He had stuck his foot out on purpose. I saw it from across the room while I was drinking my tea.Lyra was on her knees. She didn't look up. She started trying to pick up the broken pieces of ceramic with her bare hands. Her fingers were shaking.“I’m sorry,” Lyra whispered. “I’m so sorry. I’ll clean it up. I’ll get more.”Kol laughed and looked at his three friends. They were all sitting there, watching her like she was a show.“You’re a clumsy little thing, aren’t you?” Kol said. He kicked a piece of bread across the floor. “Maybe if you spent more time looking at the floor instead of trying to look at the warriors, you wouldn’t be such a mess.”“I wasn’t looking at anyone,” Lyra said. She sounded like she was going to cry. “Please, I’ll fix it

  • REBORN TO BREAK YOU   CHAPTER 46: CAIUS IN THE MORNING

    CaiusI haven’t slept right in three days.Every time I close my eyes, I see the Great Hall and I see her.It is making me angry because I don’t like things I can’t control.The infirmary is quiet. She is sitting at her wooden table, leaning over a bowl. She is grinding something with a heavy stone. She doesn't jump when I walk in. She doesn't even pause."Good morning," she says. She doesn't look up from the bowl. "Do you have an injury?""No," I say."Then I’ll be with you when I finish this compound."She keeps working. The stone makes a scraping sound against the bowl. Scrape. Scrape. Scrape.I don't leave. I walk over to the patient chair and I sit down. I sit there and I watch her. I watch the way her hair falls over her shoulder. I watch her hands. They are steady. Most people’s hands shake when I’m in the room with them. Even my best warriors get a little stiff when I’m watching them closely.She isn't stiff. She is completely calm.It’s the first time in my life I’ve felt lik

  • REBORN TO BREAK YOU   CHAPTER 45: VERA MOVES

    SennaVera finally said it out loud today. She told Dax who she thinks I really am. That changes everything, and it means my time is running out faster than I thought.I was in the infirmary sorting through some dried herbs when Rhea came in. She didn’t look like herself. Her face was very white, and her hands were shaking so much she almost dropped the bowl she was carrying. She leaned against the door and breathed hard."Rhea? What’s wrong?" I asked. I stood up and went to her. "Are you sick?""No," she whispered. She looked down the hallway to make sure no one was there. Then she stepped inside and shut the door. "I was just near the Alpha’s corridor. I was supposed to deliver those reports to the assistant. The door to Dax’s office was open just a little bit."I felt a cold prickle on the back of my neck. "And you heard something.""I heard Vera," Rhea said. She sat down on a stool, her knees looking weak. "She wasn’t even whispering, Senna. She sounded so sure of herself. She was

  • REBORN TO BREAK YOU   CHAPTER 44: THE DOCUMENT

    SennaThe first ray of morning sun sliced through the dusty air of the records room, landing on a stack of reports."Alright, Senna," I whispered to myself, my voice barely a breath. "Time to make this count."I moved through the tall shelves, my fingers tracing the spines of binders. Military treaties, trade agreements, land disputes. "Here we go," I mumbled, pulling out a thick binding labeled 'Diplomatic Arrangements – Ironblood/Ashveil'. This was it. I carried it to a small, worn table. My heart beat a bit faster, a nervous flutter I tried to ignore. "Just breathe. It's just paper."I opened the binder. The annexation documents were on top, all official and neat. Below them, was another sub-file. It was smaller, tucked right underneath, almost hidden. 'Mating Arrangement – Alpha Caius Ironblood & Alpha Aldric Ashveil.'"Okay. You found it," I told myself, my voice so low it was almost just a thought. "Now, what does it say?"I opened the sub-file. The paper felt heavy, important,

  • REBORN TO BREAK YOU   CHAPTER 43: THE NIGHT IT BREAKS 

    SennaI wasn’t supposed to feel happy here. Not really. But the warmth of the fire, and the sound of people laughing, it got to me anyway. My chest felt a bit too full, a bit too open, and that was a dangerous feeling.We got that forest land back, the one everyone fought over for so long, and the air in the great hall felt loud and light. Everyone was talking, smiling. It was real. This joy. And for a second, it felt like mine too."You look like you're about to crack a smile, Senna," Lyra said, her own laugh bubbling up. She was piling a plate high with roasted meats and some sweet fruit, her eyes sparkling like the fire. "Careful, it might hurt your face."I just rolled my eyes, but a little smile did tug at my mouth. I couldn't help it. "Don't push it, Lyra. Someone has to be the sensible one around here." I liked Lyra. She was easy. She didn't ask too many questions about why I was always a bit, well, guarded. She just let me be."Sensible just means boring on a night like this,"

  • REBORN TO BREAK YOU   CHAPTER 42: HE ASKS SOMETHING REAL

    SennaThe air was cold. My feet made almost no sound on the walkway. Then I heard him. No, not heard, felt. A quiet shift in the air, maybe. Or just the way I was wired now. He was coming from the other side, just as alone, just as early. Caius. He looked tired. Like he hadn’t slept much, or maybe like he’d been up for hours already, thinking his own dark thoughts. “Morning,” he said, his voice a low rumble in the quiet. “Morning,” I replied. My voice felt small. It always did when it was just him and me, and the world was this quiet.We started walking again, somehow, in the same direction. It wasn't planned. It just happened. Neither of us said anything for a long time. “Do you miss your life before this?” he asked.The question hit me like a stone right in the middle of my chest. It was so direct. So real. My steps didn’t even falter, but a little piece of me did. The safe answer was easy. "No." Or, "It doesn't matter now." But he wasn’t asking for the safe answer. He was asking
