RUN AWAY WITH ME CHAPTER 111
Selene chose the council chamber deliberately.Not the inner sanctum where only elders convened, but the larger hall where decisions were witnessed, remembered, and—most importantly—misremembered when fear was allowed to rewrite them. She wanted this moment to linger in collective memory, unalterable by whispers afterward.The chamber filled slowly that morning. Elders took their seats in measured silence, some nodding to Selene, others avoiding her gaze. The air held that particular tension born of anticipation without understanding—everyone sensed that something was coming, but no one knew from which direction.Ariane arrived last.She wore calm like armor, her expression serene, posture open, hands folded neatly before her. She inclined her head toward Selene in a gesture that, weeks ago, might have read as solidarity. Now it read as performance.Kael stood at Selene’s right, unmoving, watchful. He had learned in recent days when to speak and when to let silence do the work. This w

Selene did not move against Ariane immediately.That restraint was not mercy. It was strategy.She let the council breathe. Let routine settle again. Let the elders convince themselves that the brief tension had passed. Ariane resumed her gentle presence, her helpful tone, her careful balance between authority and humility. On the surface, the keep returned to its measured rhythm.But beneath it, Selene was laying threads.She began with the records.Not the obvious ones—the council minutes, the patrol assignments, the sealed decrees. Those had already been touched too often. Instead, Selene went to the margins: requisition logs, messenger routes, secondary authorizations that were rarely questioned because they were tedious and unglamorous.She noticed how often Ariane’s name appeared as a relay.Not as an originator. Not as a signer.As a bridge.Selene spent long evenings in the archive chamber, sleeves rolled, hair bound back, the twin’s presence steady and alert within her. The t

The days that followed did not announce themselves as turning points.That was the most unsettling part.Selene continued her routines as she always had—morning council briefings, afternoon patrol walks, evenings beside Kael when the keep finally settled into stillness. On the surface, nothing had changed. But underneath, something had begun to pull at the seams, slow and deliberate.It started with the elders.Not all of them. Just enough.Elder Varyn avoided Selene’s gaze during meetings. Elder Morren hesitated before agreeing to motions she proposed, his assent delayed by a second too long to be coincidence. Elder Lys, who had once sought Selene’s counsel privately, now deferred instead to “later discussions.”Later, Selene learned, often meant Ariane.She noticed how Ariane positioned herself—not at Selene’s side, not in opposition, but just close enough to be consulted first. Ariane never contradicted Selene outright. She reframed. She softened. She suggested alternatives that so

Morning came softly to Nightfang Keep, as if the world itself hesitated to disturb what had settled in the night.Selene woke before Kael.She lay still beside him, watching the slow rise and fall of his chest, the relaxed lines of his face that only appeared when he slept. His arm was heavy around her waist, grounding, familiar. The intimacy they had shared the night before lingered in her body—not the ache of unfulfilled desire, but something deeper. A sense of alignment. Of choosing each other deliberately, even under pressure.The twin stirred faintly within her.Not restless. Not aggressive.Watchful.Selene closed her eyes and breathed through it. The twin did not speak in words, not yet—but there was a sensation, a subtle tightening, as if something in the world had shifted while she slept.When she rose quietly and dressed, she carried that feeling with her down the stone corridors of the keep.The pack was already awake. Servants moved briskly. Guards changed shifts. Elders’
RUN AWAY WITH ME CHAPTER 107
The dawn arrived over Nightfang Keep with a pale, silver light that shimmered through the high windows. Selene woke first, the faint pulse of her magic humming gently beneath her skin, the twin inside her stirring, coiled but restrained, a quiet observer to her calm. She felt Kael’s warmth beside her, the steady rise and fall of his chest, the restrained power of the wolf beneath his skin, and for a brief moment, the world narrowed to this room, to this bed, to this perfect, fragile calm.Her fingers reached out, tracing the line of his jaw, the curve of his shoulder, memorizing what belonged only to her. The twin whispered softly, a teasing, possessive undertone that brushed at her thoughts. He is yours, but mine sees him too, it murmured. Selene shook it off gently, focusing instead on the pulse of heat and desire that connected her to Kael.Kael stirred, shifting slightly, one arm curling protectively around her waist, pulling her closer. He smelled of dawn, of earth and forest and
RUN AWAY WITH ME CHAPTER 106
Night had fully fallen over Nightfang Keep, and the world outside was silent—deceptively so. Within the high walls of the keep, Selene and Kael moved together through the quiet corridors, the twin coiled gently in Selene’s mind, aware and watchful, teasing faintly at Kael’s presence.They entered the tower that overlooked the northern forests, the moonlight spilling across the floor in pale, silver shards. Selene stopped and turned to him, her silver aura flickering faintly, a heartbeat of raw energy controlled only by the twin’s subtle guidance.Kael’s dark eyes scanned her face, jaw tight. He could feel the twin stirring, the faint pull of power brushing at him like heat. He knew she could ground herself without him, but tonight, they would not hide. He would not hide.“Kael,” she whispered, voice low, almost trembling, “I feel it… inside me. The twin, the power. And you—your presence—it anchors me, but also—” She shivered, letting her words trail off, letting him feel the tension i
