CHAPTER TWELVE: How To Hurt You

The eastern fence line broke at 12:04 AM.

Roman knew the exact time because Dmitri called it through the pack bond with the flat precision of a man who had been in enough fights to know that details mattered and panic didn't. Three Wendigos through the gap. Pack closing to intercept. Roman was already moving, already shifted, already driving toward the breach with six of his best warriors flanking him.

The fight was ugly.

    CHAPTER TWELVE: How To Hurt YouThe eastern fence line broke at 12:04 AM.Roman knew the exact time because Dmitri called it through the pack bond with the flat precision of a man who had been in enough fights to know that details mattered and panic didn't. Three Wendigos through the gap. Pack closing to intercept. Roman was already moving, already shifted, already driving toward the breach with six of his best warriors flanking him.The fight was ugly.Wendigos were fast and they hit hard and they didn't feel pain the way living things felt pain, you could put wounds in them that would stop anything else and they kept coming, kept moving, kept reaching for you with those too-long arms and those silver-sharp claws. Roman had fought them before. He knew the weak points. He knew the angles.He drove through the first one with his shoulder, took it off its feet, had his jaws at its throat before it could recover. The second one caught him across the flank with silver-laced claws, white-h

  • THE ALPHA'S IMPOSSIBLE MATE    CHAPTER 11: Hello, Partner

    Sara was dressed in forty seconds.Old habit. Field agents learned to go from horizontal to operational in under a minute or they learned it the hard way. She had learned it the easy way, early, thoroughly, and she had never once been grateful for it the way she was grateful for it right now.Roman was already at the window.He had pulled on jeans and nothing else, and he stood at the glass with his eyes blazing full gold and his head slightly tilted, reading something in the sounds outside that she couldn't parse yet. His whole body had changed. Not the shift, not that. But something in the way he held himself had shifted fundamentally, the careful deliberate man from twenty minutes ago replaced by something older and more dangerous that wore his face.The Alpha.She had read about pack dynamics in the three days she'd been here, had asked questions and absorbed answers and built her understanding the way she built everything. She understood the concept of an Alpha. She had thought s

    Three years.Three years of running the eastern border until his paws bled. Three years of an empty bed and a broken bond and the specific silence of a man who had decided that some things only happened once and he had already had his once and that was enough.Three years of being enough for everyone else and nothing for himself.And now Sara Mitchell had her hands in his hair and her legs around his waist and the mate bond was doing something he had no words for, expanding, deepening, snapping into place with a rightness that made three years of silence feel like holding his breath.He carried her from the wall to the bed.Set her down carefully. Stepped back. Looked at her.She looked back at him with her green eyes gone dark and her hair loose and her expression stripped of every professional layer she wore like armor, and she was so completely, devastatingly real that it stopped him for a moment.Just a moment."Roman," she said."I know." He came back to her. Sat beside her. Put

  • THE ALPHA'S IMPOSSIBLE MATE    CHAPTER 9: Done Running

    Sara Mitchell was not impulsive.She had never been impulsive. Not as a child, not as a rookie agent, not in fifteen years of making decisions in situations where the wrong one got people killed. She was methodical. Deliberate. She gathered evidence, built her case, and acted only when she was certain.She was certain about very little right now.She was certain that Marcus Webb was alive and hunting her. She was certain that the supernatural world was real and vast and had been operating underneath the surface of everything she thought she knew. She was certain that she was sitting three inches from a werewolf Alpha who looked at her like she was the answer to a question he had stopped letting himself ask.And she was certain, had been certain for three days, with the specific miserable certainty of someone trying very hard to be reasonable, that she wanted him.Not just the bond. Not just the warmth or the safety or the way the room reorganized itself around him when he walked in. S

  • THE ALPHA'S IMPOSSIBLE MATE    CHAPTER 8: Careful What You Ask For

    She didn't break immediately.That was the thing about Sara Mitchell. She held herself together through the conversation about Marcus with a composure that would have impressed Roman under any circumstances. She asked the right questions. She processed the answers. She closed the laptop with that quiet, final click and looked at him across the desk with dry eyes and a jaw set like concrete.She asked him how to kill it.So he told her. Silver weapons. Decapitation. The specific vulnerabilities of a Wendigo in its transformed state, the weak points in its speed and strength, the ways an experienced hunter approached one without dying. She listened and she asked follow-up questions and she was so relentlessly, magnificently composed that he almost believed she was fine.Then he refilled her whiskey glass and their fingers touched when she reached for it.The mate bond flared between them, immediate and electric, the way it always did when he touched her, that deep resonant pull that hi

    The second whiskey went down smoother than the first.Sara set the glass down and looked at the man across from her, the werewolf across from her, she corrected, because precision mattered and she was going to be precise about this even if it killed her, and said: "Explain the mate bond. All of it. From the beginning."Roman refilled her glass without being asked.She appreciated that.He sat across from her this time. Forearms on the desk, hands loose, close enough that she was aware of the heat coming off him and far enough that she could think clearly. He had pulled on jeans and a shirt somewhere between the shift and the second pour and she was not going to examine how relieved she was about that."The bond is instinct before it's anything else," he said. "Your wolf recognizes its mate the way you recognize your own heartbeat. You don't decide it. You don't choose it. It's already done before your conscious mind catches up.""And it's permanent.""Completely.""What does it feel
