Chapter Nineteen

Zara Fen POV,

The interior of the SUV was a tomb of expensive leather and the smell of fading sandalwood. Outside, the Gray Peaks were a blurred smear of white and black, the snow lashing against the windshield like a thousand tiny needles.

I was shivering. Not just from the mountain frost that had seeped into my marrow, but from the vibration of Alpha Lir’s voice still echoing in my skull rent free.

I gripped the edge of the seat, my knuckles white. I felt small. I had walked

  • Shattered By The Alpha   Chapter 27

    Chapter Twenty-SevenZara Fen POVThe SUV smelled of leather, Silas’s sandalwood cologne, and the metallic tang of pure, unadulterated dread. Outside, the world was a blurred smear of grey and black as we tore through the lower mountain passes. Every bump in the road made my teeth jar, but I barely felt it. My entire universe had shrunk to the size of the black glass screen in my hand.I hit the call button for the twentieth time.“The subscriber you are trying to reach is out of coverage range or—”I cut it off, the robotic voice making me want to scream. I threw the phone onto the seat next to me. "Still nothing. Just the same recording.""Zara, breathe," Silas said. He didn't look away from the road, his hands gripped at ten and two on the steering wheel, his knuckles white. He was driving with a focused, predatory intensity that usually made me feel safe, but tonight, it only highlighted how fast we were running. "We’re in the shadows of the peaks now. The signal is dead for every

    Chapter Twenty-SixAlpha Lir POV"Move it up," I said, the command cutting through the air like a blade. "Forty-eight hours. The Grand Selection happens Thursday."The High Council representative, a grey-haired wolf named Harken who had served my father, blinked in genuine shock. His tablet hung in the air, his grip tightening as the blue light flashed across his lenses.“Alpha Lir, this doesn’t make sense,” he said. “People aren’t even in position yet. You’re rushing this for no reason.”"I said move it up.” I snapped, turning on him. My wolf was scratching at the back of my throat, restlessly. "We hold the selection Thursday at 7:00 PM. Any pack not present is disqualified. Their trade status will be revoked, and their territories will be open for Council redistribution."“Silas asked for five days,” Harken said, his voice tightening. “The weaver’s not ready yet. If we move it now… it’s going to look deliberate.”I leaned over the table. The glass creaked under my hands.“Then it

    Chapter Twenty-fiveZara Fen POV,I turned away from the gate, my legs feeling heavy as the adrenaline began to subside."He’s terrified," I whispered, my fingers tracing the rough iron of the gate before I followed Silas back toward the house.Alpha Silas shook his head. "No, he’s desperate," I didn't answer, I already knew that.“He knows he’s losing control,” Silas went on. “If people see the truth, everything he’s said about you falls apart.”I looked up at Silas. He looked tired. The pressure of the double tax had already strained Downridge granaries, and now Lir was threatening to cut the throat of their future.“You should stop,” I said.The words came out before I could hold them back.Silas frowned. “Stop what?”“The workshop. The Guild. All of it.” My throat tightened. “Tell them I got sick. Say anything. Just… end this before it gets worse.His expression didn’t change, but I felt the shift in the room.“I’ll stay right here,” I added quickly. “I won’t be the reason your p

    Chapter Twenty-FourZara Fen POVThe temperature in the workshop didn't just drop; it died and seemed to vibrate as a violent, freezing draft slammed the door against the stone wall. Alpha Silas’s snarl was a physical weight, his body vibrating with the need to shift."I told you the air would be heavy tonight, Zara," Silas rasped, his eyes locking onto the dark doorway.Alpha Lir stepped out of the shadows. He wasn't the polished Alpha in a tailored suit anymore. He was dressed in a heavy, fur-lined coat, his hair dusted with frost. He looked feral, ready to tear anything that gets in his way."Inspecting the transit lines, Lir?" Silas’s voice was a dangerous rumble. "At midnight? In my private workshop?"Lir didn't answer. His gaze was a laser, cutting through the dim lamplight until it landed on my hand that Silas was still shielding."The bond didn't just flare," Lir hissed, his voice like jagged ice. "It screamed. I felt your blood hit the silver from three miles away, Zara."I s

    Chapter Twenty-ThreeZara Fen POV,By the second week of the new shift, my fingers were a mess of fine red lines, a constant sting reminding me I was forcing metal to do something it was never meant to do."Almost there," I whispered, the word hitching in my throat.I stared at the woven silver. The center panel caught the light too sharply, forcing me to squint.I leaned closer, my breath fogging the surface. I could see the wooden rafters above me and the empty chair where Emily used to sit.But where my face should have been, there was only a soft, golden blur.And my mind dragged me back to the one day that mattered.The day I stood before Alpha Lir in Silvercrest Great Hall, my heart pounding as the bond snapped into place. I had looked into the mirrors of the hall, expecting to finally see who I was meant to become.Instead… there was nothing.Alpha Lir had stood beside me, all pine and cold authority, and whispered the words that became my cage.He rejected me within the hour.

    Chapter Twenty-TwoAlpha Lir POV,The glass didn’t shatter, it just broke apart in my hand. One second I was holding a crystal tumbler of aged scotch, the next my palm was burning, filled with red cuts and sharp glittering pieces.I didn't flinch. I didn't even feel the sting."Lir, your hand."Elara’s voice was like a thick shrill flute played out of tune and entirely too close. She stepped toward me, a silk handkerchief held out like a peace offering, but I pulled back before she could touch me. The scent of her heavy roses and that sharp, chemical undertone made my gorge rise."I’m fine," I snapped, my voice sounding like gravel."You’re bleeding on the Persian rug," she pointed out, her lower lip trembling just enough to remind me that I was supposed to care. "You’ve been like this since the Ridge. You’re snapping at the Council and you’re... you’re obsessed with that border report.""The border is my responsibility, Elara. Go to bed.""It's midnight, Lir! You’ve been staring at t
