Coral

I didn’t deserve to have Duncan as a mate. I had purposefully had sex with someone to hurt him. He deserved better. As the words to reject him started to come out of my mouth, Ivy begged me not to say them. She was yelling in my head for me to stop, but I felt like I had no choice. I had messed up so much in so many ways, and he deserved a better mate. I didn’t want to reject Duncan, but it felt like it was th

    CoralI didn’t sleep much that night. Not because I was afraid, but because I was aware. I was listening to everything around me. Taking it all in. I was becoming much more aware of the small things around me, the subtle changes in the air. It was strange to think that these changes had been happening all the time, and I just never recognized them. It is so interesting, and so scary, to think about all the little things that we miss all around us on a daily basis. The boundary sat at the edge of me, steady but present. Not loud. Not demanding. Just… there. Like a second heartbeat that didn’t belong entirely to me. Ivy and I sat, thinking about it. We felt it out, trying to see if there was a way to better understand it. I lay beside Duncan, listening to his breathing even out after he finally drifted off. I could feel the weight of his arm over my waist. Even as he fell asleep, he was still holding me tight. The security I felt with him was something that I never knew that I n

    DuncanThe compound felt different after the meeting. Not louder. Not quieter. Just focused. It actually filled my wolf with pride to see everyone so focused. Wolves moved with intention. Patrols adjusted without being told. Conversations were shorter, more direct. No one asked unnecessary questions. No one pretended nothing had changed. They were ready. Waiting for the next steps, the next order.That was the part I appreciated about this pack. They didn’t need to be convinced when something mattered. They all knew what was expected from them and they were simply waiting for what was next.I watched Coral as we walked. She was holding my hand, but she wasn’t leaning on me. That was important. She was thinking. Processing. Ivy was pacing beneath the surface—I could feel the shift in her ene

    CoralThe meeting didn’t end all at once. It thinned out. Chairs scraped. Wolves stood, hesitated, then moved like they weren’t entirely sure where they were supposed to go next. No one argued. No one panicked. It was quieter than that. The kind of quiet that comes after something has shifted and everyone is pretending they don’t feel it yet.I stayed where I was. My hand rested on the back of a chair, fingers curled into the wood without realizing it. I could feel the worn grooves beneath my palm—years of use, steady and unchanged. It grounded me more than anything that had just been said. At this moment, I needed to feel grounded. Ivy was doing her best to help me, but this was a lot for anyone, but it was teetering on too much for a red wolf who was just learning the true meaning of emotional control. A few wolves glanced at me as they passed. Some nodded. Some didn’t. None of them stopped. They weren’t afraid of me. They were thinking. That was almost worse. I was afraid of wha

    DuncanBy the time Coral and I reached the main path, the compound felt different.Not unsafe. Not quiet.Different.The lights still lined the walkways. Patrols still moved in their patterns. Wolves passed each other with nods and murmured greetings. Anyone looking in from the outside would’ve seen the same controlled, efficient territory it had always been. But pressure lived under it now.You could feel it in the way people lingered instead of moving on. In the way conversations stalled out halfway through. In the way shoulders brushed just a second longer than necessary, like everyone needed proof that the others were still there. Still solid.I felt it in Conan too. He wasn’t pushing forward or bristling—just alert, coiled, waiting. The kind of readiness that came before something went wrong.Coral walked beside me, quiet. Her attention wasn’t fully on where we were going. Part of her was still turned outward, listening to the boundary even though it was behind us now. She was al

  • Red Wolf's Guardian   Chapter Thirty One

    CoralWhen I awoke, Duncan was not in the room. I hated that he was right, but the physical intimacy was what I needed. It helped to resent me and to help me focus. I took the edge off the emotions that I was having a hard time controlling. My wolf and I were now very, very focused on one task; protecting wolves. Because at the end of the day, that’s what this really was about. It was about the red wolves and their protection over all of wolves. If the vampires were able to somehow hurt the red wolves, then it would hurt all wolves. It was not going to let that happen. None of us were.Duncan alerted me that he was doing some additional planning, so I took it as an opportunity go outside. I walked around the compound, taking in everything I could to help center myself. I approach the edge and I notice the stone barrier. The stones marked the edge of the compound. At first, I thought they were just old boundary markers—weathered rocks half-buried along the perimeter, placed there bac

    CoralThe guardian wolves went off to discuss strategies for protecting the red wolves. Looking around at the red wolves, the atmosphere in the room felt almost electric. It wasn’t like we were humming, but it felt like there was this electricity that was going between each of us.Raina stepped forward, “I’ve asked my daughter, Romy, to come over. She has studied the red wolves and their history extensively, and has the best knowledge as to what has been done in the past. I don’t know if there’s ever been a time where the red wolves have all worked together to fight like this.“ Raina turned and looked out the window, playing with her hair. I looked over at Vivian and Talia, who were sitting next to me. Along with my sister, Harley, these two had become my family; actually all of the red wolves had become my family. There was this innate need to protect my family. I was not going to let these vampires, or any other threat, hurt my family. It was not just my family, but all of wolves
