Rejected by My Mate, Desired by His Enemy CHAPTER 80: Everything We Fought For
"The end of one war is just the beginning of another," Donovan says, raising his glass toward the gathered pack, "but this time we choose the battlefield."The celebration is Meredith's idea, which means it's larger than anyone anticipated and better organized than anyone expected. Two hundred wolves in the main clearing, fires burning at the corners, the specific warmth of a community that has been through something hard together and is choosing to mark the passage of it with food and noise and the kind of laughter that only happens when the danger is genuinely behind you.Two years since the convoy left for Summit.The conspiracy ended. The alliance built. The registry running. The Council changed. Haven almost four and thriving. Oliver the same.Meredith decided this deserved a party and she was right.I stand at the edge of the clearing with a drink I've barely
Rejected by My Mate, Desired by His Enemy CHAPTER 79: Iris's Legacy
"Two years," Donovan says. "That's what it's been."He's standing in the doorway of the Alpha office, which is technically his office but has been functionally our shared office since the Elder correspondence started requiring a dedicated space. He has two cups of coffee and the expression of someone who has been doing mental arithmetic and arrived at a number that surprised him.I look up from the quarterly alliance report. "Two years since what specifically.""Since everything." He crosses to the desk and sets one mug beside my hand. "Since I found you in the snow. Since Haven was born. Since the conspiracy started unraveling. Since you became Luna and then Elder and then the first omega on the Council in three hundred years." He sits across from me. "Two years since all of it."I look at him.Then I look at the room around us. The Elder correspondence in organize
Rejected by My Mate, Desired by His Enemy CHAPTER 78: Meeting the Ancients
"They're very still," Haven says. "Like they're not worried about anything."She's standing between Donovan and me at the edge of the meeting clearing, her hand in mine, looking at the five Old Ones with the focused assessment she brings to everything that interests her. Which is everything. But this especially.We decided to bring her.It took three days of discussion, Donovan and I and Sage working through every angle, before we reached the conclusion that Haven's presence at this meeting was less dangerous than her absence from it. The Old Ones asked for her specifically. Refusing that request meant starting a relationship with five-hundred-year-old wolves by demonstrating that we make decisions for Haven rather than with her.She is almost four years old. She is not old enough to make this decision herself.But she is Haven, which means she was going to find a w
Rejected by My Mate, Desired by His Enemy CHAPTER 77: The Old Ones Arrive
"Five wolves," Marcus says, setting the intelligence report on the table. "That's all. Five wolves claiming to be over five hundred years old, traveling without pack affiliation, requesting audience with the Council and specifically with the three-bloodline children."The emergency session has twelve Elders and the specific quality of attention that fills a room when nobody is certain whether what they're about to deal with is a threat or a gift and the difference matters enormously."Claiming," Elder Crane says. "We have no verification.""Their magical signature is unlike anything in the Council's records," Vera says. "Our mages spent six hours on the preliminary assessment. The power they carry predates every framework we use to measure it." She looks around the table. "That doesn't confirm five hundred years. It confirms old. Very old.""How old is very old?" Marcus asks.&nb
Rejected by My Mate, Desired by His Enemy CHAPTER 76: Six Months Later
"Six months after Morgana's trial, life almost feels normal," Donovan says from the doorway, "which means something is about to go wrong."I look up from the Elder correspondence. "Don't jinx it.""I'm not jinxing it. I'm observing a pattern.""The pattern is called anxiety.""The pattern," he says, crossing to pour himself coffee, "is called living with you for two years and learning that peace has a shelf life in our particular life."Through the bond his amusement is dry and warm and entirely genuine. I throw a pen at him. He catches it without looking.Haven, appearing in the doorway behind him in her training clothes: "Mama threw something.""I saw.""Is that allowed?""Only at Daddy Don," I say. "House rule."She files this away with the seriousness she files everything and disappears back down the hallway, presumably to relay this rule to Oliver as gospel.Donovan sets the pen on the table beside me. "Six months," he says, quieter now. "That's real, Iris. Six months of nothing
Rejected by My Mate, Desired by His Enemy CHAPTER 75: The Sacrifice's Meaning
"Was it worth it?" Oliver asks.He's sitting across from me at the kitchen table with a cup of warm milk Sage made him before she went to bed, his small hands wrapped around it, his eyes on my face with the direct attention he brings to questions he actually wants answered rather than questions he's asking because children ask questions.Three and a half years old and he already knows the difference between asking and asking."Was what worth it?" I say."Your power. You gave it to Haven." He looks at his milk. "I know because Sage told me. When Haven was sick and the power was too much and you took it so she wouldn't die." He looks back up. "Was it worth it?"I look at my son.Oliver came to us through the worst version of everything, through Clarissa and Lucian and the conspiracy and the exile, and he absorbed all of it and came out the other side as this, a child who sits at kitchen tables in the late evening asking the questions everyone else is afraid to ask."Yes," I say."Even t

"I brought you real food."Three days I spend in that hospital bed, and not one person visits except Octavia.The machines beep constantly. Monitoring. Recording. Making sure my baby's heartbeat stays strong and steady. It does. Defiant little thing. Holding on despite everything Clarissa tried to

"Week four is about making sure we don't die," Sage says, spreading a map across the breakfast table like the eggs and toast aren't even there.Nobody argues with her.One week until Summit. Seven days to close every gap the conspirators might find and use against us. The map shows the convention ce

"Lucian Cross looks like a scholar until you see the bodies at his feet."I say it to no one, just processing what I'm seeing. Three corrupted wolves dead on the concrete. Their own allies. Killed by the man they served.Lucian stands in the center of the warehouse, perfectly calm while chaos erupts

"You have healing hands. We could use you in the clinic if you're interested."Two months become three. Three become four. And somewhere in there, I stop counting.Meredith offers me work in the healer's room after watching me reorganize her supply closet for the third time. I'm going stir-crazy si
