Willa

I knew the smell of the clinic archive better than the perfume on my own dressing table. Dust, damp plaster, old paper. I'd hidden in there as a child when the pack's other girls went home to mothers who knew what they liked for supper.

Now I stood before an open cabinet while Hugh checked the window latch. My childhood intake folder lay empty on the shelf. Whoever had taken the pages had left the clasp fastened, so the gap wouldn't be noticed until someone looked inside.

  • REJECTED LUNA: CARRYING THE ENEMY'S CHILD   What the Mark Can Do

    WillaI turned toward Callan so quickly that Corbett's hand slipped out of mine.The king was standing beside the treatment couch, his throat half-hidden beneath his open collar. The ambush wound had healed to a pale seam. I'd examined it myself. I'd watched his pulse steady. For days, I'd been thinking about what was inside my skin."Sit down," I told him."Willa…""Please."The word brought him into the chair. Ward checked his pulse while I examined the wound. Callan stayed still beneath my fingers, his eyes on my face. There was no fever, no new discoloration, no sign of the violent poiso

    WillaWard took the chart out of my hands."I didn't prescribe this."For a few seconds, no one spoke. I could hear a child coughing beyond the door, followed by an attendant's low murmur. Ordinary sounds. I wanted to go out there and ask whether the girl with the sore ear had slept. Instead, I sat beneath the lamp while four people studied a lie about what had entered my body.Callan reached for the chart. "Who signed it?""Someone copying my initials," Ward said. "The dose was entered before Willa arrived.""Could someone have given me something on the road?" I asked.Maya's face tightened. She'd slept too. All of us had, at one poin

    WillaCallan looked at the blood on his hand as if he wanted to tear the color out of it."Ward!"His shout brought footsteps running. I grabbed a cloth from the examination trolley and pressed it to my neck before he could pick me up."I'm standing. You don't need to carry me.""You're bleeding.""Which will happen at the same speed in your arms."He swore, but he let me sit on the table. The kiss still trembled through me, making the abrupt return of pain feel obscenely unfair. My lips were tender. His shirt was twisted where I'd gripped it. I couldn't bear the fear in his face when Ward came through the door.

    Willa"That was my mother's name."Helena's hand tightened around Callan's sleeve. She kept staring at me, her lips parted, and for a terrible moment I thought she might tell me I'd been wrong about everything. That my mother had another name. Another daughter. A reason for leaving me that no one in Silvermoon had ever wanted to explain."You knew her?" I asked.Helena blinked. "Years ago. A healer at a northern infirmary. You have her eyes.""Is she alive?""I haven't seen her since before the border raid. I'm sorry, child. I don't know."The hope she'd startled awake hurt as it folded back down. I had a photograph and a

    WillaHugh stopped two paces from us.The driver tried to scramble backward, striking his head against the truck's undercarriage. I braced a hand against his shoulder before he could hurt himself again."No one's taking you anywhere yet," I said. "Look at me. What's your name?""Martin.""Martin, I need you to breathe slowly. You're making yourself worse."His eyes kept darting toward Hugh. Callan stepped between them, and Martin's grip loosened enough for me to pull my sleeve free."Do you know him?" Callan asked his commander."I know that company. Their drivers have carried crown consign

My childhood intake folder lay empty on the shelf. Whoever had taken the pages had left the clasp fastened, so the gap wouldn't be noticed until someone looked inside."When did you last see it complete?" he asked."At my final licensing review. Aris brought it out to confirm how long I'd lived here.""Months ago?""Nearly a year."That left too much time. I ran a finger over the label. Willa Greer. Someone had written the surname after the first ink had dried, squeezing it into the remaining space. I'd never noticed that before."Was anyone else keeping a copy?" Callan asked from the doorway."I don't know. I was a child when they brought me here. Children aren't given inven
