THE ADOPTED DAUGHTER SENT TO PRISON BECAME THE LYCAN'S MATE 19 - UNLIKELY DEFENDER
The steady sound of Russell’s boots echoed against the stone floor as he walked down the quiet corridor of the administrative wing. He had spent the entire morning listening to the visiting nobles whisper. Stella's rumors had spread through the estate with calculated precision. Everywhere he went, he heard hushed conversations about Penelope’s supposed madness, her barren womb, and her violent tendencies.He knew exactly where the poison originated. Stella was terrified of losing control of her narrative.Russell stopped near a tall window and looked out over the frost-covered gardens. He should have been preparing for the treaty negotiations. He should have been reviewing the trade agreements Langford wanted him to sign. Instead, his mind kept returning to the library. He kept seeing Penelope’s hollow eyes and the stark white bandages wrapped around her bleeding hands.He turned away from the window and continued down the hall. He needed to find Alpha Langford to finalize the afterno
THE ADOPTED DAUGHTER SENT TO PRISON BECAME THE LYCAN'S MATE 18 - THREAT
Orion was incredibly protective, but he was also exhausted. If Penelope pushed hard enough, Orion might actually sign those papers just to make the headache go away. Once the applications reached the regional registry, visiting Alphas would see Penelope's lineage. Despite her criminal record, Visconti blood was highly valuable. Someone would undoubtedly accept the match.Unless nobody wanted her.Stella smoothed the front of her dress and left her bedroom. She navigated the quiet corridors and headed straight for the sunroom on the first floor.The sunroom was warm and bright, filled with plush seating and small tables. A few of the visiting nobles who preferred an early start were already awake. Stella spotted Elder Vance from the northern territories and Alpha Thorne, a young, ambitious leader from a neighboring pack. They were sitting near a large fern, drinking coffee and discussing trade routes.Stella adjusted her expression, letting a soft, troubled look pull at her features. S
THE ADOPTED DAUGHTER SENT TO PRISON BECAME THE LYCAN'S MATE 17 - NEW
Stella sat perfectly still at the vanity, watching her own reflection in the mirror.The morning light spilled through the large windows of her bedroom, catching the pale blonde curls resting over her shoulders. Her personal maid, Clara, stood behind her, running a brush through her hair with slow, careful strokes.The estate was quiet following the massive gathering the night before. Most of the visiting nobles and Alphas were still asleep, recovering from the wine and the rich food. But the servant quarters were already awake, and the servants were always talking."The clerk was very upset about it," Clara murmured, keeping her voice just above a whisper. "He said someone went behind his desk and took the official forms right out of his sorting tray."Stella met the maid’s eyes in the mirror. "And they think Penelope took them?"Clara nodded, her hands pausing on the brush. "Evelyn saw her walking out of the administrative wing late last night. She had a stack of papers tucked under
THE ADOPTED DAUGHTER SENT TO PRISON BECAME THE LYCAN'S MATE 16 - TANTRUMS
The music from the ballroom was a distant, muffled hum by the time Penelope reached the administrative wing. The corridors were quiet, stripped of the elaborate decorations and floral arrangements that filled the guest areas. She preferred it this way. The silence was predictable.She walked into her assigned room and turned on the small lamp beside the bed. The harsh light illuminated the sparse space. There was nothing on the walls and nothing on the dresser. She had lived out of a small bag since returning from the labor camp, never unpacking more than she needed for the day. She had always known this was not a home.Penelope pulled a folded stack of papers from the bottom of her bag. She had taken the blank forms from the pack clerk’s sorting tray days ago. She smoothed out the creases on the mattress and looked at the black ink filling the designated boxes.She felt a profound sense of calm settling into her chest.There was no anger left in her. The burning injustice that had co
THE ADOPTED DAUGHTER SENT TO PRISON BECAME THE LYCAN'S MATE 15 - SILENT OBSERVER
The ballroom felt suffocating. Russell needed air, or at least a reprieve from the endless parade of smiling faces and practiced laughter. He left Grant to handle the regional elders and slipped out through the side exit, leaving the noise of the gathering behind.He walked down the dim corridors of the Visconti estate. The architecture was grand, full of tall archways and shadowed alcoves, but it felt hollow. He wasn't just walking to stretch his legs. He was looking for the gray uniform.He checked the dining room first. Empty. He bypassed the kitchens, knowing there would be too many servants bustling around to have a quiet conversation.He found her on the second floor, in the library.The door was propped open. Russell paused in the entryway, keeping to the shadows. The library was vast, lined with towering bookshelves that stretched toward the vaulted ceiling. A few lamps cast pools of warm light across the floor, leaving the upper shelves draped in darkness.Penelope stood on a
THE ADOPTED DAUGHTER SENT TO PRISON BECAME THE LYCAN'S MATE 14 - MISSING PRINCESS
The music from the ballroom played lightly in the background, a lively tune that felt entirely out of place against the cold reality of the Visconti pack.Russell stood in the corridor, a glass of bourbon resting loosely in his hand. Stella had already hurried back to her guests, her manufactured smile failing to hide the genuine panic he had seen in her eyes. The heiress had expected admiration for her public charity. Instead, she had received silent rejection from the servant she had tried to use as a prop.Footsteps approached from the ballroom entrance. Russell did not turn his head, but he recognized the heavy, aggressive stride.Augustus stepped into the corridor. The guard captain’s jaw was set in a hard line. He glanced toward the kitchen boundary where Penelope had disappeared, then looked directly at the visiting Alpha."She does this all the time," Augustus said, his voice tight with frustration.Russell took a slow sip of his drink. "Does what?""Plays the martyr," Augustu
