I woke up bleeding, pain shooting through my arm. I gasped, seeing Julietta's sneering face in front of me the moment my face cleared.

A dagger was in her hand, and I recoiled in shock, as I realized what she was doing.

Her shirt sleeve was rolled up to her shoulder, and she roughly grabbed my bleeding arm and yanked upwards, setting it above her own shriveled arm.

She gritted her teeth as my blood touched her skin and sizzled. Slowly, her real skin tone began to leak through the rot, and I

    "What are you doing here?" Julietta asked me harshly as I stepped into her cell. "If you've come to laugh or gloat, then get the fuck out." "You're forgetting something," I told her. "You can't order me around here. This is my pack, not yours.".Julietta glared at me, spat, and the glob of saliva landed at my feet. Rolling my eyes, I sidestepped it, walking towards her, and bending when I was right in front of her. "What are you doing?" She demanded. "Don't touch me, you filthy little—"I yanked the collar of her shirt to the side, ignoring her rant, and staring at what I was here for. I was still wearing my gloves, so she couldn't see the state of my own hands. Her shoulder was a mix of black and grey tendrils against her pale skin. Her whole arm was basically useless at this point. Not to mention, it was physically unappealing. No one should have to carry this around with them. "Saoirse?" I called out. "Please come in." Saoirse, who had been waiting just outside, stepped into t

    The meeting dispersed, and Cassian and I left Ironwood as soon as all the other Alphas did. We bumped into Alpha Frost right when we were about to get in Cassian's car. Her own car was parked nearby, and sitting in it was someone who looked like he could be her Beta. "Alpha Frost," I greeted, extending my re-gloved hand for a handshake. "A pleasure to meet you. Thank you for having my back in there." "You can call me Elaine," she said, shaking my hand. "A pleasure to meet you too." "Call me Iris," I replied. "So...have you been around for long?" She snorted. "You mean how long have I been an Alpha, and how many of these meetings have I attended?" I blushed slightly. "No offense, I just—""None taken," Elaine said easily. "As for the meetings, I've attended one too many. Most of them aren't as interesting as this one was, mind you. They're mostly just sexist men bragging about their latest acquisition and droning on about pack politics. Ask your mate. He always leaves before anyo

    "Alpha Sinclair?" "Didn't he die of a mysterious illness?" "Shh. I heard it wasn't an illness at all. They say his mate killed him.""No way. Luna Camilla?""Hugo was her first love or something. Crazy shit." "Yeah, imagine being killed by your fated mate. I wouldn't have ever seen that coming." "Can we please have order?" Alpha Frost asked, putting an end to the shameless whispers."Alpha Stone," Alpha Black started, then cleared his throat when both Cassian and I stared at him. "The female Alpha Stone. You say your father was Alpha Sinclair?" "He was.""And Julietta... She's your sister?" "Step sister." "Right. Step sister. You two grew up together, so one would think there would be a bit of...familial love?" What he was basically asking was this: if Julietta and I were so closely related (half sisters), then why did I challenge and take Red Moon from her? I smiled coldly. "This is a family matter, Alpha Black, but I don't mind saying it here. Julietta and I were never clos

    It was finally the day of the Council meeting. Cassian had told me it was going to be held at Ironwood Pack, and I wasn't looking forward to it. Of all the places to hold a meeting... If not for the fact that Cassian had told me that the venues for the meeting were already rotated between the packs, and that it was truly Ironwood's turn to host, I would have believed they were doing this just to try to intimidate us. We were both back in Cassian's bedroom (which I guessed was ours now). Cassian had suggested spending the night in Ironwood to reduce the stress of having to go back and forth, but I refused. I didn't like the pack and I wasn't giving it up, but that didn't mean I wanted to spend even a night there. Cassian was in front of a mirror, knotting his tie, while I was trying to decide between a skirt suit or a pant suit. I finally chose the pants, feeling like it would make more of a statement. Cassian looked impressed when I pulled on a pair of red pumps to match the dark

    We had breakfast, went to the hospital, and got the cast off, with congratulations from Doctor Ethel, and strict instructions not to try to move heavy things or put any strain on the arm for at least three more days, provided Althea's recovery remained steady. While we were talking, Cassian received a mindlink from Lily at his office, and I convinced him to go. He kissed my forehead before leaving, and I wasn't even aware I was smiling like a schoolgirl until Doctor Ethel smiled too. "You seem better, Luna." "I feel better," I agreed. She nodded. "That's good." "I'm not fixed yet, am I?" I asked, already knowing the answer. She hesitated, then slowly shook her head. "I guess it depends on what you mean by 'fixed', Luna. If you mean physically healed, then yes, I would say you are almost completely healed. But if you mean mentally... I'm afraid that's going to take much longer. Don't get me wrong. There'll be good days, like this one. There'll be wonderful days. But sometimes, t

    Max and the Covenmaster left, and so did Lily and Saoirse. Sage stared longingly after them, the sighed, and disappeared into the guest bedroom. Cassian's eyes fogged over as he mindlinked someone, probably the border control, giving them firm instructions to not let Max or anyone else into that pack. I was still a bit appalled at how easy it was for Max to get past our defenses, but from the look on Cassian's face I knew it wouldn't be happening again. "Let's go to bed," he mumbled when he was done talking to whoever he mindlinked. I took his hand, and we went back to my former bedroom. A glance at the clock told me it was about three in the morning. They really picked the time to come, I thought as Cassian held the covers back and waited for me to get into bed before joining me. His arms immediately went around me, and I snuggled closer. He was vibrating slightly with adrenaline and unused energy. I touched his shoulder gently, trying to comfort him. "I can't believe he woul

    I returned to a quiet house after my morning workout session, as usual. What wasn't usual was the fact that Iris still hadn't come down for breakfast even after I made some noise while cooking. That's odd. She was usually awake and hungry by now. After our encounter with Julietta and her mate yes

    "Let me get this straight," Saoirse said, staring at both Cassian and I in disbelief. "You want me to cast a spell that will make you not want to fuck each other?" She looked at us like we were both crazy. "It sounds so weird when you put it like that," I mumbled. "But yes....that's the gist of i

    Doctor Ethel left Cassian and I alone to take in the news. The silence in the room was so thick and tense you could cut it with a knife. It wasn't everyday you were told you had to have sex with your mate (or anyone, really) for the first time for medical reasons. Why did my body choose to betra

    "Iris." A soft knock sounded on my bedroom door, and I pulled myself off the edge of the bed where I'd been lying, and walked to the door. Cassian stood on the other side, a slim box the length of a ruler in his hand. "Yeah?" We were both supposed to be doing some last minute packing, but behind
