Sold To The Alpha Kings CHAPTER 37: THE ROAD NORTH
The road north is not a road, it is a story that Brennor told once about First Luna, about a girl who held many Kings because she was built to, because she was loved to, and crown got scared and made Second Law that says Kings belong to crown.We leave Ashen again on Day 21, because white cloth letters do not let you sleep well even when you have two hundred and ninety-eight wolves plus twelve pups plus two Miras who stay with Mara and Lena and root cellar and honey cakes, because crown says Ashen burns if Luna does not come.So we go north, but not all of us, because some wolves have to hold Ashen and root cellar and two Miras, because some wolves are old and bent and alive and snore loud enough that Mara says she can hear him in next village.Brennor stays, with Mara, with Lena, with twelve pups, with two Miras, with fifty Red River wolves who are practical and know how to hold a village when Luna goes north to make crown crack.We have two hundred and forty-eight wolves plus twelve
Sold To The Alpha Kings CHAPTER 36: THE LETTER NORTH
The letter north comes on Day 20, because after always ends with a letter, because after is quiet but not for long, because winning a war against Fifth Law and First Law means someone else writes you a Law.We are still in Ashen, because three hundred wolves plus twelve pups plus two Miras plus one Lena plus one Theo who dreams does not move fast, because Brennor’s house is everyone’s house now and everyone’s house needs fixing, roofs and walls and root cellar where pups hid.Mira and Mira are learning how to be two Miras, which means learning how to share honey cakes, which means fighting, then hugging, then fighting again, which Mara says is normal for sisters, and Lena says is normal for any Miras.Rook is fixing roof, because Rook fixes roofs when he is not fighting or holding me, and he is shirtless and sweaty and his cuts are healed and his claws are out, because roof needs claws, and I am watching him, because watching Rook fix roof is better than counting letters.Kain brings
Sold To The Alpha Kings CHAPTER 35: HOME
We go home on Day 19, because home is Ashen and Ashen is north and sea is south and after you say twelve names and get twelve pups out of sea, you need to go home to where Brennor snores and pups need honey cakes and oaks have white flowers.We go slow, because twelve pups coming out of sea do not know how to walk long roads, because two Miras need to hold hands the whole way, because Lena walks with Theo and Theo walks with his sewn eyes turned toward north, dreaming home.Two hundred and forty-three wolves plus twelve pups plus twelve plus four Kings plus one Luna plus two Miras is a lot of wolves, so we make a lot of dust, and villages that heard Grayrock burned and arena cracked and sea stopped being angry come out to watch, and some join, because winning side is obvious now.Varric says we have three hundred by the time we reach Ashen, but Kain says two hundred and ninety-eight, because Kain counts, and Varric says practical Alpha rounds up, and Kain says general rounds accuratel
Sold To The Alpha Kings CHAPTER 34: TWELVE PUPS
Twelve pups come out of sea like they have been waiting twenty years to come out of sea, which they have, because First Law took them and sea kept them, not drowned, kept, cold and waiting, like Lena.They are not babies, not anymore, oldest maybe ten, youngest maybe three, Mira’s age, wet and shivering and alive, and they crawl onto beach on hands and knees, because sea legs are not land legs, and they look at two hundred and forty-three wolves plus twelve plus four Kings plus one Luna plus one small girl who is good at making angry things not angry, and they do not know what to do, because they were taken for a Law and told sea took them.Lena is first to move, because Lena waited twenty years for sea to give back, and she knows what it is like to be kept.She goes to oldest, girl, maybe ten, with Lira’s eyes, Theo’s eyes, and she kneels, not touching, just there."You are safe," she says, voice like sea but warm now. "Sea gave you back. No more First Law. No more cold."Girl looks
Sold To The Alpha Kings CHAPTER 33: WHAT SEA GIVES
Sea gives cold first, then gives names, then gives back what it took, which is not what I expected sea to give, because stories about sea say sea takes and never gives back.Lena stands in salt water up to her ankles, bare feet white and cold, Theo holding her elbow like she might fall, which she might, because twenty years waiting in sea is a long time to stand."You said it," she whispers to me, looking at me, not at sea, not at wolves, at me, like I am the first person to say her name out loud in twenty years, which maybe I am. "You said Lena.""I said Lena," I say, stepping closer, salt water cold and biting, but Rook is behind me, hands on my waist, ready to pull me back if sea tries to take me, which it will not, because sea is not angry anymore."Lena of Ashen," she repeats, testing it, like Joren tested in arena, like stones tested. "Sister of Lira, aunt of Theo. I— I left city when I was sixteen, because priest said First Law says Luna cannot leave city or sea will take her,
Sold To The Alpha Kings CHAPTER 32: THE ROAD SOUTH
We leave Ashen again on Day 16, because sea waits and women in white who are Lira’s sister wait and black cloth with Mira’s name and a question mark does not let you sleep well even when you have two hundred and four wolves and four Kings and one small girl who insists she is coming because sea is angry and she is good at making angry things not angry.Brennor does not come again, because someone has to hold Ashen and bury Caelum with stones and snore loud enough that Mara says she can hear him in the next village, but he gives us his daughter, because Mara says she is good at shovels and honey cakes and keeping Mira from stealing honey cakes.Varric comes, because Red River Alpha who likes to be on winning side also likes to see sea, and he brings fifty wolves, because fifty is practical and one hundred would be showing off.So we have two hundred and four minus eleven dead plus fifty, two hundred and forty-three wolves, plus twelve, plus four Kings, plus one Luna, plus one small gir
Sold To The Alpha Kings CHAPTER 12: THE PRICE OF STUPID
Rook’s idea of “something really stupid” is breaking into Alpha Draevor’s private quarters at midday.“Are you insane?” I hiss at him as we slip through the servant corridors. The castle is mostly empty — everyone’s still at the arena, cleaning up after yesterday’s farce. “If he catches us—”“He wo
Sold To The Alpha Kings Chapter 3 - Three Crowns Fall
I wake up chained in a circle. Again.Black stone room. No windows. Four beds around me. Four Kings watching.“Explain,” I snarl at Kain. He’s still in his suit, still on his tablet. “The Law. The crowns. Why?”He finally looks up. “Statistical certainty, hybrid. Four independent kingdoms cannot co
Sold To The Alpha Kings Chapter 2 - Three Graves
Rook’s still grinning with my blood on his teeth. “The Law’s simple, Luna. Four Kings. One Queen. Thirty days.”Kain checks his claws like he’s bored. “Three graves. One throne.”Silas lights a cigarette off a burning auction card. “Better start picking favorites, little wolf.”Theo hasn’t moved. H
Sold To The Alpha Kings Chapter 1 - The Bite That Killed A King
I bite the Alpha’s throat before he can get the word “reject” out of his mouth, because I’ve been sold, collared, and called a peace bride for the last time.His blood hits my tongue hot and wrong. Copper, winter, and something electric that tastes like the air before a storm tears the sky open. I
