The Alpha Chose My Sister But My Baby Chose His Bood Chapter 66: Wrong Note, Right Note
The boy on the steps was called Ansel, and the first thing he said to them was, "Sorry, I need a wee."Nobody knew what to do with that."I've been out there since eleven," he said, already walking backwards toward a hedge. "In this. Don't touch anything until I'm back. Actually, touch whatever you like, I don't care, just don't go downstairs without me, the third step is loose."He went. Ren stared after him with his mouth slightly open."Is that the one who's going to help us rescue a girl from a dungeon?" he said."He's twenty," Caelum said. "He's cold.""He's wetting a hedge.""Ren.""I'm just saying it's not what I pictured."Tomas Reyes, behind them, had taken a mint out of his coat pocket and was unwrapping it with great concentration, the cellophane crackling loud in the hall. "I'll note," he said, "that the minor on the premises left the building voluntarily and returned, and that the door was opened by him." He put the mint in his mouth. "I'm not sure how to note the hedge."
The Alpha Chose My Sister But My Baby Chose His Bood Chapter 65: What the Children Wrote
The envelope was found on the Thursday morning, and nobody could say who had put it there.Mira discovered it on the kitchen table at six, under a saucer, addressed in careful capitals to THE WINDOW ONE. She brought it to the estate office with the air of a woman handling something that might go off, and Luna turned it over twice before she opened it.Inside was a single sheet, folded in eighths, covered on both sides in handwriting that changed three times.Dear Window One,We are the five who stayed. The man said you would not want us because we are too old. We are not too old. We are only careful.We want to tell you the thing we did not tell the observers. We could not say it with the teachers listening, and they were always listening, even when the door was closed.There is a room under the west house. It has a lock on the outside. It is where they put the ones who tested at four degrees. Not to punish them. To keep them still while they were studied. Wren was there. She was ther
The Alpha Chose My Sister But My Baby Chose His Bood Chapter 64: Thirty-Six Beds
They reached the packhouse at two in the morning.Nobody had slept in the cars. The younger children had cried quietly for the first hour, then gone silent in the way Luna understood too well, a silence that was not peace but waiting. Pip had ridden in Ren's car with her hand wrapped around the end of Sable's cardigan sleeve and had not let go once.Drew was at the gate. He opened it without a word, and then, when the convoy had passed, Luna saw him in the mirror lift one hand to his mouth.The packhouse had been warned. Maren had seen to that. Every lamp on the ground floor was lit, and the front door stood open on a hall full of people who had been told to be quiet and were obeying with visible effort. Garrick's wife Mira had been up since midnight. The kitchen staff stood in a row with blankets over their arms.Luna stepped out of the car and understood, in one breath, that she had not thought about beds.Thirty-six children. She had thought about the protocol, the observers, the A
The Alpha Chose My Sister But My Baby Chose His Bood Chapter 63: The School in the Highlands
Sable decided to come before anyone asked her.She said it at breakfast on Thursday, between sips of warm milk, in the tone she used for settled things. "I'm coming to the school."Luna put down her cup. "We haven't decided that.""You've decided everything except that," Sable said. "You've decided the observers and the protocol and who drives. You haven't decided me because you're afraid of the answer." She set down her milk. "The answer is yes.""Sable.""If they're children like me, they'll want to meet someone who isn't afraid," Sable said. "And if they're not, I'll know. You won't." She looked at Caelum. "Dad, tell her."Caelum had been quiet. He looked at Luna across the three cups and said, carefully, "She's not wrong. She's the only one of us who can tell the difference between a child who is safe and a child who has been taught to say so.""I know that," Luna said."Then?""Then I'm her mother," Luna said. "And I don't want her to see it."Sable considered this."That's a goo
The Alpha Chose My Sister But My Baby Chose His Bood Chapter 62: The Visitor at the Gate
Drew called it in at ten past nine on Monday morning.Luna was in the estate office with Petra, waiting for the Authority's acknowledgment, when the radio on Caelum's belt crackled and the young gate wolf's voice came through, careful and slightly higher than usual."Alpha. There's a man at the gate. No appointment. He's asking for the Vayne heir by name."Caelum looked at Luna."Name?" he said.A pause. "He says it doesn't matter. He says she'll know him.""Describe him.""Sixties. Grey coat. Very polite." Drew hesitated. "Sir, he's holding a hat. In both hands. Like he's at a funeral."Luna felt the room go quiet around her.Very polite. Very quiet."Let him through," she said."Luna," Caelum said."He came to the front gate in daylight with his hat in his hands," she said. "A man who wanted to hurt us would not do that. A man who wanted to be seen would." She stood. "I'll meet him in the receiving room. You'll be beside me. Petra, stay here and watch the Authority's channel. Ren, f
The Alpha Chose My Sister But My Baby Chose His Bood Chapter 61: What Odile Remembers
Petra drove to the western mountains herself. Luna wanted to go. She said so at breakfast with her mouth full, and Caelum said nothing, which was how he agreed with other people's good sense, and Sable said, "You should stay." "Why?" "Because Odile's been frightened of the wrong people for fourteen years. If the heir turns up first, she'll tell you what she thinks you want. If it's a lawyer, she'll just say it." Luna opened her mouth. Shut it. Pointed her toast at her daughter. "That's annoying." "It's accurate." "Those aren't different things." She stayed. It was the hardest thing she'd done in weeks. For two days she sat in the estate office with Dr. Adaeze's files and a phone that never rang. She rearranged her pens twice. At one point she caught herself at the window counting training rotations like a woman losing her mind. Petra called on Sunday night at ten past eleven. "I have it," she said. Her voice sounded like she'd been chewing gravel. "Four hours of recording. Not
