Calla's POV

The small cave under the rocks felt a little warmer now. The tiny fire we made gave soft light and some heat. My ten wolves sat around it. They were resting after the long day. No one had died yet. We were all still here. That was good.

I sat with my back against the rock wall. My body hurt everywhere. My leg still stung from the monster scratch. My arm throbbed. The cold had got into my bones. I closed my eyes for a moment and tried to rest my head.

One of the wolves stood up. She

  • RECLAIMING THEIR EX-BREEDER    Chapter 135: The Lady’s Mistake

    Tanya's POV“Fuck. Fuck.”I slammed the door of my chamber behind me and swept everything off the table with one violent sweep of my arm. The candlesticks, the wine cup, the little carved box of jewels … all of it crashed to the floor. It wasn’t enough. I knocked over the chair too. Then the washbasin, water sloshing across the stones. I wanted to break everything. I wanted to scream the whole palace down.He’d come back. And cut my prisoner down off the gallows and humiliated me in front of the entire pack. Everything I’d built in their absence … the loyalty, the fear, was gone, just like that. Undone in the space of a single afternoon.I stood in the wreckage of my room, breathing hard, my hands shaking with fury.It wasn’t fair. None of it was fair. I’d done everything right. I’d been patient. I’d waited years for an opening, and when the twins finally left, I’d taken it, and I’d nearly had it … the crowd eating out of my hand, the breeder dying in some ditch in the wilds, the pa

  • RECLAIMING THEIR EX-BREEDER    Chapter 134: The Thin Place

    Calla's POV The pain is gone.That is the first thing I notice, and it frightens me more than the pain ever did … because I know what it means when a body stops hurting. I know what that silence is called. I know I am dying.I am floating. Somewhere above myself, somewhere between the cold ground and whatever comes after, I am simply drifting, and the strange, terrible thing is how peaceful it is. How soft. I had expected death to be violent, to demand something of me at the end. But it is nothing like that. It is the way a fire goes out … not all at once, just dimmer and dimmer, the light going gently, until there isn’t any left.I can hear Brynn.His voice comes to me the way all sounds do now … muffled, remote, like he is calling from the bottom of a very deep lake and I am floating far above the surface.“Hold on, Calla. Please. Please hold on.”I want to answer him. I want to press my hand over his and tell him it’s all right, it doesn’t hurt anymore, you can rest now, you’ve b

  • RECLAIMING THEIR EX-BREEDER    Chapter 133: The Alpha Returns

    Bianca's POVTanya straightened slowly, brushing the dirt from her skirts, and looked down at me with something cold flickering behind her eyes.“And what,” she said, “makes you think I care one bit for your mate?”My blood turned to ice.“Hang him,” she said, turning back to the gallows. “I’ve changed my mind. A weeping woman won’t sway me from doing what’s necessary. Put the rope back on. Be quick about it.”“No!” I screamed, lunging forward, but the guards caught me, dragging me back. “No, please, no…”They lifted the noose toward Kyle’s neck. He didn’t fight this time. He just looked at me across the courtyard, calm and steady, like he was trying to give me something to hold onto. The rope touched his throat…The courtyard gate slammed open.A great black wolf tore through it, fast as a storm, and before anyone could so much as shout, he’d crossed the whole courtyard and leapt … claws flashing … and slashed clean through the rope above Kyle’s head.The rope fell away in two piece

  • RECLAIMING THEIR EX-BREEDER    Chapter 132: The Gallows

    Bianca's POV“Bring him out,” Tanya said.She stood at the head of the courtyard in a gown the color of old wine, with her chin high, her voice ringing clear across the gathered crowd. The same crowd that had hanged the spy two nights ago. The same hungry, frightened faces.“Bring out the traitor. I mean to make an example of him. This kingdom has grown soft on traitors, and softness is what brought the plague to our doors. No more.”A guard near her hesitated. “Ma’am … are you certain? He’s no ordinary man. That’s Kyle. One of the Alpha’s most trusted knights. Brynne himself raised him up. When the Alphas return…”Tanya turned and slapped him across the face. The crack echoed off the stone.“When the Alphas return,” she said coldly, “they will thank me for cleaning out the rot they left behind. Do not question me again. Bring him out. Now.”The guard touched his reddening cheek, bowed his head, and went.I stood at the edge of the courtyard with Adele’s hand clutched tight in mine,

  • RECLAIMING THEIR EX-BREEDER    Chapter 131: Carrying Her Home

    Blade's POVWe ran until the world narrowed down to nothing but the next step, and the next, and the woman in my arms.I’d shifted back to two legs to carry her. A wolf couldn’t cradle her the way she needed, couldn’t keep her head from lolling, couldn’t feel for her breath the way I had to feel for it every few minutes to be sure it was still there. So I carried her in my arms instead, against my chest, and I ran on two legs through the broken country, Brynne ran beside me, neither of us spoke because neither of us had the breath to spare.She was so light. That was the thing that kept tearing at me. She’d never been heavy, but now she weighed almost nothing at all, like the plague had been hollowing her out from the inside, taking and taking until there was hardly anything left to carry. Her head rested against my shoulder. Her marked arm hung limp. And through the oath, I felt every shallow flutter of her heart, every thin sip of breath, and I felt how far apart they were spacin

  • RECLAIMING THEIR EX-BREEDER    Chapter 130: Taken Back

    Bianca's POVKyle was on his feet before I even heard them.One moment, he was beside me, warm against my side, the dawn coming up soft and gold. The next he’d surged up, his blade in his hand, his whole body had gone tense and still … and then they stepped out of the trees.Soldiers. A whole ring of them, closing in around the great rock from every side. There were a dozen at least, maybe more; their spears were lowered, swords drawn, fanning out to surround us where we had nowhere to run.I scrambled up with Adele clutched to my chest, my back against the cold stone.“You’re under arrest,” the lead soldier said. “By order of the palace. You’re to come back with us. Both of you.”“On what charges?” Kyle’s voice was hard, his blade up, his body between them and us. “We’ve done nothing wrong. Nothing.”“Nothing wrong.” The soldier laughed, short and ugly. “We hanged a spy last night who’d been feeding the enemy from inside our walls. And now here you are … another of the Alpha’s own m

    Calla's POVI waited until the camp went quiet.The fires had burned low across the hollow. Somewhere out in the dark, a wounded wolf was still moaning, the sound was thin and steady, the way it had been all night. Two more tents stood empty at the eastern edge … the wolves who’d slept in them wer

    Bianca's POVI turned over in bed and stared at the wall.I had been awake for hours, but I couldn’t make myself get up. The morning light crept across the floor, and the palace stirred to life around me… footsteps in the halls, voices, it was just the ordinary noise of a place trying to pretend e

    Calla's POVThe pain woke me before the light did.It started in my wrist, the way it always did now, a deep burning that crawled up toward my shoulder. I lay still on the bedroll for a moment, breathing through it, listening to Brynne’s slow breaths beside me. He was still out cold, sprawled on

    Calla's POVBrynne stormed out of the tent first.“Fuck,” he said under his breath. Then louder, to no one. “Fuck.”I slipped out after him, keeping my hood up. He was walking fast, his shoulders tight, his hands still curled like he wanted to hit something. The whole camp seemed to lean away from
