SILVER IN THE SHADOWS MEETING THE WORLD
TRIXIEEight weeks had passed. The pups had grown strong in that time. Their tiny cries had become sharper, their little hands quick to reach for warmth, their eyes beginning to open wide to the world. Each day, I had watched them change, and each day my heart had stretched a little more, as if it had no limits. But we had stayed hidden, close within the walls of the keep. Only Lana and Droco had been allowed near, their visits quiet and careful. The rest of the pack had waited with patience, their curiosity burning but held back by respect.Now the time had come. The morning was bright, the sun spilling like gold across the courtyard. The air was fresh, carrying the smell of pine and earth. Ryker stood beside me, tall and steady, though I could feel the tension in him — a mix of pride and protectiveness.The pack had gathered, filling the open space. Men, women, and children, their faces lifted toward us, their eyes shining with expectation. Some clutched flowers, others carried smal
SILVER IN THE SHADOWS THREE NAMES,THREE FATES
TRIXIEThe fire was low that night. The pups had just fallen asleep, their soft breaths filling the chamber. I lay on the bed with Ryker at my side, his arm around me as always. The silence was warm, but heavy. It was time to speak what had been circling in both our hearts.“They cannot be nameless forever,” I whispered, my eyes resting on the cradle.Ryker stirred, his gaze following mine. “No,” he said softly. “Names carry weight. They will shape who they become.”I nodded, but my throat tightened. I thought of the past, of all we had lost, of all we had survived. My voice shook as I began.“The first girl…” My eyes fell on the one who always curled closest to me, her tiny fingers forever seeking warmth. “She should be Marielle. For my mother. She was the first to love me, even when the world around us was harsh. I want my daughter to carry her strength, her kindness.”Ryker’s hand tightened on mine. “Marielle,” he repeated, his voice tender. “A name of fire and grace. She would be
SILVER IN THE SHADOWS Healing
TRIXIE The dark slowly thinned again. It was slow, like dawn creeping over the ridge. My eyes fluttered open. My body felt heavy, every limb weak, but I was here. I was breathing. The first thing I saw was Ryker, his face close to mine. His eyes were red, but when he saw me stir, his whole body softened. His hand closed over mine, warm and trembling.“You’re back,” he whispered. His voice cracked. “You came back.”I tried to smile, though my lips barely moved. My throat ached, but I forced the words out anyway. “The pups… Ryker, what are they?”His eyes shone, and for the first time in hours, joy broke through his fear. He leaned close, brushing his lips to my forehead before answering.“Two girls,” he said softly. “And one boy.”My chest tightened, not from pain this time, but from something so big and warm it stole my breath. “Three,” I whispered. “Three of them…”A nurse stepped forward, arms full of blankets. I saw the tiniest faces, soft and wrinkled, fists curled tight. One let
SILVER IN THE SHADOWS Trixie's Limbo
TRIXIEThere was no pain.That was the first thing I noticed. The fire in my body was gone. The weight, the tearing, the screams — gone.I opened my eyes, but the world around me was not the pack house. It was white, endless. No walls. No floor. Just light that felt soft on my skin.I stood, though I did not remember standing. My hands were steady. My body whole. My chest light.And then I heard her voice.“Little flame.”I turned, and my heart stopped.My mother was there. Her dark hair fell down her shoulders the way it did when I was a child. Her eyes were warm, the same shade as mine. She wore the same smile I thought I had forgotten.“Mother…” My voice shook. I could not believe it. I had dreamed of her so many nights, but this was no dream. She was here.She opened her arms, and I ran into them. Her embrace was strong, warm, and real. My chest broke open, and I cried into her shoulder.“I’ve missed you so much,” I whispered.“I know,” she said softly, stroking my hair. “I’ve been wat
SILVER IN THE SHADOWS Three Miracles
The packhouse was quiet that night. No horns. Only the sound of wind in the trees and voices whispering in the halls.Everyone was waiting.Inside the main chamber, Trixie lay on the bed. Her face was pale, her hair stuck to her skin. Ryker sat beside her, holding her hand. He had not let go for hours.“It is starting,” Lana said. Her voice was calm. She looked at the midwives. “Bring water. Bring cloth.”Trixie squeezed Ryker’s hand hard. A cry broke from her lips. Ryker leaned close. “I’m here. I’m not leaving you.” She tried to answer, but another pain bent her forward. She could only groan and clutch at him.The pack waited outside. Some stood. Some knelt. Some prayed. Droco stood at the door like stone. His arms were crossed, his face hard, but his eyes never left the room.Children sat with their mothers. They whispered, asking what was happening. The mothers hushed them. “It is a birth,” they said. “It is life.” Hours passed.Trixie cried again and again. Her voice rose and fell
SILVER IN THE SHADOWS At the edge of new life
The sun was warm on North Creek that morning, though spring still carried a chill in its breath. Thin clouds drifted across the sky, and the river sang louder now that the ice had melted.Grass pushed through old paths, and children’s laughter carried farther than the echo of weapons ever had.In the heart of the keep, Trixie sat in the open courtyard with Ryker at her side. Her belly was round and heavy now, the child inside restless. Each movement was a reminder that time was running short. She placed her hand across the curve of her stomach and closed her eyes, breathing through the weight of it.“You’re staring again,” she said softly.Ryker chuckled. “I’m guarding.”“You’ve been guarding me since the first week.”“And I’ll keep guarding until I’m dust.” His hand found hers, fingers lacing tight. “The pup is restless today?”She nodded. “Stronger than yesterday. I think they want out already.”He smiled, though there was worry behind his eyes. Ryker was not afraid of blood, of war,
