ROMAN.

Octavia’s insights into her fellow pack members were extremely useful because it gave us a good look at the type of people that they were.

We couldn’t be too careful when selecting people to join Blazing Fire because we had to protect our pack members but were also held as role models in the South. Simply put, our pack members represented our pack, so their actions fell back on us.

I underestimated how many of the pack members here would be just as messed up as their leadership was. It di

Roman is giving her the steady comfort that she needs to begin opening up.

I hope they carry on her parent’s cherry tree and plant one when they get to their pack, it would be a beautiful tradition.

Octavia is such a strong but gentle soul and so far I really like how Roman is with her. Honest, patient and still strong for her.

  • Rise of the Phoenix Wolf   Chapter 95

    STORM. I almost laughed. Centuries of cruelty and viciousness. Of destroying others for his amusement. Of collecting pain like it was vintage wine. And it turned out all it took to make the great King Lezdeus flinch was a woman he’d called Littlest Puppy standing in the middle of her own inferno.“Careful,” I taunted him. “Now you’re going to become a cautionary tale.”He reined his composure back in quickly enough that I might’ve imagined the crack in it, but I’d seen it.“You think one clever trick makes you a threat,” he hissed, putting distance between us like that distance could save him from the fire that I commanded. “I have buried far more important people than you. I have buried the best. I have buried legends!” his voice boomed across the battlefield.“Then you should know that this story will end badly for you.”The flame pulsed brighter, hungrier than before.He came at me again, and this time there was a different urgency. No longer was he acting like a cat who loved to t

  • Rise of the Phoenix Wolf   Chapter 94

    STORM. The fire answered before I did.It always did. Ever since the Goddess had first breathed it into my bones many lifetimes ago. Tonight it rose from somewhere deeper than instinct, deeper than rage. It stood up from every name that King Lezdeus had named, like a trophy. From Nixon. From Eleanor. He had made all the Phoenix wolves' ends into entertainment.I let it come.Flame licked up my spine, and for one suspended heartbeat, the sounds of the battlefield faded away. It was all reduced to a single point of focus. Him. King Lezdeus's smile didn't waver. It deepened, in fact, if my fire was a compliment directly to him.My body receded as I shifted into Octavia's form. Flames covered me like clothing because I didn't need the entire battlefield to see what was only for our mates' eyes. Something told me that Creed wouldn't have liked the alternative very much. My eyes remained gold, like they did in my wolf form."I wondered how long you would hide."“There was nothing I was hidi

    STORM.The tide had turned.King Lezdeus still commanded an army large enough to conquer kingdoms. Thousands of loyalists remained willing to die for him. But the battlefield no longer belonged solely to him. Between my words and Osric's unwavering courage, cracks had spread through his army.Those cracks had names. Identities. Faces.Ezriel.The warriors who had stepped between innocent lives and their former comrades, shields raised against their own brothers.The countless souls who had finally remembered that obedience was a choice, not a destiny.They hadn't simply refused King Lezdeus. They had chosen something greater. Every demon who crossed the battlefield to stand beside us strengthened our lines while weakening his. Trust didn't develop overnight, but purpose? Purpose ignited in an instant.What had begun as two opposing armies had become something infinitely more complicated.His greatest weapon had never been claws or strength. It had been absolute control. And that contro

  • Rise of the Phoenix Wolf   Chapter 92

    OCTAVIA. I released a breath because Storm’s words landed perfectly. King Lezdeus had broken them well so that all they thought about was honoring him, fighting for him, and following his orders. He had elevated himself to the place of their god, which he certainly was not.“KILL THEM!” he roared.The order rang across the battlefield.Immediately, thousands of demons surged forward with savage cries, charging toward our warriors with weapons raised. The earth trembled beneath the weight of their advance as winged demons launched into the sky and hulking brutes thundered across the blood-soaked ground.But thousands more never moved. They stood frozen. Caught between the life they had always known and the one they had just been shown.Then something extraordinary happened.One by one, the warmth inside them ignited. Heads that had bowed in submission slowly lifted. Eyes that had been hollow, probably for centuries, filled with purpose. Their humanity didn’t merely flicker.It burned.

  • Rise of the Phoenix Wolf   Chapter 91

    OCTAVIA.Until Osric came along, I hadn't considered that there might be good demons out there.Every story I'd ever heard painted them as monsters born for cruelty, creatures that reveled in suffering because they were woven into the very fabric of their existence. Demons weren't supposed to hesitate. They weren't supposed to sacrifice themselves for strangers or choose compassion when violence was easier. They were the villains in every cautionary tale. The nightmare parents warned their children about.Then Osric had stepped between Storm and certain death without asking for anything in return.He'd fought against his own king. He'd risked everything for people he'd only just met. And when I'd looked into his eyes, I hadn't seen an empty abyss staring back at me. I'd seen guilt. Regret. Hope. A soul that centuries of darkness buried, yet did not extinguish.It forced me to confront an uncomfortable truth.Maybe demons weren't born evil.Maybe some of them had simply forgotten what i

  • Rise of the Phoenix Wolf   Chapter 90

    ROMAN.Every instinct I possessed screamed.My pulse, which had only just begun to settle after Vladimir's death, lurched back into a punishing rhythm the moment King Lezdeus and his demon army materialized on the blood-soaked field. Muscles, already burning from the battle we'd barely survived, locked tight with fresh tension.Creed's hackles rose as he stood at attention, every line of his body coiled tight.A deep growl rumbled in his chest—low, primal, promising death—but he clamped down on it the instant he felt the surge of calm being sent to him through the mate-bond from our mates.Danger stood before us. Not the kind we'd just survived. Something far worse.The demons didn't charge forward. They advanced as if they had all the time in the world, their pace unhurried, almost casual. It was as if we'd merely been keeping their battlefield warm until they decided to arrive. As someone who'd survived hundreds of battles, I recognized the tactic immediately.Brilliant. Devastating.

    OCTAVIA.Farah came in after we were done eating and checked me over, informing me that I was healing better than expected. It was mentioned that she wanted to keep me for another day but felt comfortable releasing me from the hospital after that.Was it lame that I wanted to stay here because it wa

  • Rise of the Phoenix Wolf   Chapter 24

    OCTAVIA.My eyes fluttered a few times before they finally opened. Sunlight peeked out from behind the closed curtain.I looked around the room, disappointment filling me when I didn’t see Roman. He had offered to stay in the room if I wanted him to. I wasn’t certain if Storm told him that I’d been

    ROMAN.“Man, that was amusing. Hopefully, you’ll get more opportunities to put people in their places. Watching that is always like watching a sports match where the hits keep coming, but you’re always undefeated. Not to mention that I’m currently in the pool of odds for you making someone piss the

    ROMAN.“You good?” Brock asked me, raising a single brow.“Mhm. Just needing to get my head in the game. We need to keep our senses open. Creed feels like this mission will be important.”He nodded in understanding and put a three-way call between us and the guys that came with us so that we could
