CADEN

He saw it from across the training ground and told himself he was not going to walk over there.

He walked over there.

Zion and Rhen at the east wall. The body language of two people running a conversation was performing casually while being something else entirely underneath. He had watched Zion work rooms and negotiations and training dynamics for two years and he knew exactly what Zion looked like when he was invested in an outcome, and he was invested in this one.

That was the part Cad

  • THE ALPHA I REJECTED IS MY ROOMMATE   What She Ran From

    NOVAShe looked at him for a long moment before she answered.The room was still. The lamp threw light across the desk and his face and the unopened folder, and she thought about everything she had been carrying since the morning she walked out of her father's house with one bag and her mother's voice in her chest."You want the truth," she said."That's what I asked for."She looked past him at the stone wall. Not avoiding his eyes. Just putting enough distance between herself and the memory to say it without her voice doing something she would regret.********************************The training yard had smelled like wet dirt and blood and the specific confidence of men who had already decided how the morning would end.She had fought seven of them. One after another. The way her mother taught her before the illness came and stripped everything away piece by piece. Don't fight angry. Angry wolves make noise. Quiet wolves win.She had been quiet. She had won.She had stood over the

  • THE ALPHA I REJECTED IS MY ROOMMATE   The Knife

    NOVAShe moved before she finished deciding to.The training blade came off her hip in one motion, and she had the edge at his throat before he registered she had reached for it. Close. She felt him go still under it, that complete immediate stillness of someone who had been in enough dangerous situations to know that moving was the wrong answer.He did not step back. Did not flinch. Just looked at her over the blade with those dark eyes that gave away nothing she hadn't already seen."Why are you investigating me?" Low. Direct. "What did you find? Tell me right now.""You won't cut me," he said."What makes you certain of that?""Because you've had better chances than this and walked away from every one of them." His voice was completely even. Not performing calm. Just actually calm, which was more unsettling than anger would have been. "And because I haven't read the report."She held the blade steady."Soren brought it," she said. "I heard him.""He brought it. I haven't opened it.

  • THE ALPHA I REJECTED IS MY ROOMMATE    She Heard Everything

    NOVASoren left without looking back.She listened to his footsteps move down the corridor and turn the corner and fade, and she stood behind the door in Caden's hidden office with her heart going loud and her hands completely still and her brain running very fast through everything she had just heard.He had her file.He had pulled her file. Used his channels, his access, his position, whatever that position was, to dig into the identity she had spent three months building from nothing with Cass in a cold cottage kitchen. And he had found it thin. Three months old at most.He knew.She ran it back. Soren's voice. She. He had said 'she', and Caden had not corrected it, had not asked what he meant, and had simply said, 'Keep this between us.' Which meant the pronoun was not new information. Which meant Caden had already known; had known before the file; had known and said nothing and sat across from her this morning in that chair by the window and said, 'No, you just passed out; you're

  • THE ALPHA I REJECTED IS MY ROOMMATE   Where Kings Keep Secrets

    NOVAShe could not do this alone anymore.That was the thought she kept circling back to, standing at the edge of the training ground watching Zion and Rhen almost come to blows over who got to spot her during the overhead press sequence. Both of them stepped forward at the same time. Both stopped. Both looked at each other with the specific tension of two people who had been performing civility for days and were running low on the performance."I've got her," Zion said."I'm her training partner," Rhen said. "I've got this."She looked at the bar. Looked at both of them."I'll spot myself," she said.Neither of them moved.She sat down on the bench, stared at the ceiling and thought seriously about walking off the ground entirely. Everyone around her was fighting over her like she was something to be won, and meanwhile, she was still the person who had ended up with her back against a locker room wall two days ago because she was not strong enough to make Bren think twice before he t

    CADENHe saw it from across the training ground and told himself he was not going to walk over there.He walked over there.Zion and Rhen at the east wall. The body language of two people running a conversation was performing casually while being something else entirely underneath. He had watched Zion work rooms and negotiations and training dynamics for two years and he knew exactly what Zion looked like when he was invested in an outcome, and he was invested in this one.That was the part Caden could not let sit.He crossed the ground at a pace that was not hurrying. Both of them saw him coming with enough time to decide how to handle it, and neither of them moved, which told him the conversation had already reached a natural stopping point and they had each arrived at their own position on his arrival."Walk with me," he said to Zion.Not a question. Zion heard that and fell into step beside him without comment, and they moved away from the wall and Rhen and the rest of the trainin

  • THE ALPHA I REJECTED IS MY ROOMMATE   Water

    NOVAShe finished the run in thirty-four minutes, which was four minutes slower than her usual pace and four minutes faster than her shoulder wanted.She slowed at the east wall, hands on her knees, breathing it out properly. The morning was cold and clear, frost still sitting in the shadow of the north block, where the sun hadn't reached yet. She had been running since before dawn because she had not slept properly since the locker room and running was the one thing that reliably cleared her head enough to function.It had not cleared her head today. But at least her legs were tired, which was something.She straightened. Rolled her shoulder once, checking the joint. Reached for her water bottle.Someone held one out before she got there.Zion. Coming off the track from the opposite direction, barely breathing hard the way he never barely breathed hard, holding a sealed bottle at arm's length with that easy manner he had, like the offer was genuine and refusal would be equally fine.
