Ryan and I walked in our wolf forms back to the village by sunset, each of us dragging makeshift sleds fashioned from items we found at the abandoned camp to carry the meat and pelt from the goat.
While I wondered if we could mind-link somehow after I’d heard him call my name when I’d fallen, neither of us spoke. We arrived at the village shortly before the sun set when the sky was painted gold, and the moon had just started to rise again. W

The Alpha King's Breeder A Universe in Her Eyes
Ryatt“Dance with me.” “I don’t dance with men who won’t even tell me their last names.”I fidget on the edge of the dreamworld again, the same scene playing through my memories. Ella, so young, so beautiful, in that too-tight red gown against a sea of vibrant color in a ballroom that at the time was considered enemy territory. Now, I’ve been to countless events and weddings there, watched the sun set and rise through the same ceiling height windows, the same creamy golden walls, a thousand times. Some would say, after being together as long as we have, that the memory of that first meeting should feel like a lifetime ago. In reality, it was. We’re so old now. But I dream about it every night, the same memories of our youth, that tumultuous first year. Her in the gown at Isaac’s twenty-first birthday. Her in the pouring rain at that dilapidated cottage in the middle of nowhere after I finally caught up to her in the Roguelands. Her in only moonlight, my face buried between her leg
The Alpha King's Breeder How It Went Down
Posey“I don’t think I understand.” I set the letter down and turn to Aris, who’s leaning against the hearth in our bedroom. “My father wrote this?”“It’s his blessing.” He crouches, inspecting the fire with a poker. I resist the urge to crumple the letter but set it neatly on the bed instead. “In what world did you think I needed or wanted his blessing?”“It was not my idea, trust me.” Aris returned minutes ago from Sapphire Ridge. When he mentioned he’d fix this, I hadn’t realized he meant now, as soon as possible, slipping away in the quiet hours of the morning, leaving me wondering where the hell he was and why. I spent the morning in the kitchen, mostly playing with the fawn that we’ve taken to calling “Darling,” mostly because Aris calls her that. Then, I wandered the library. Then, I sat on a stool in my workshop twiddling my thumbs. Then, I came here to pace our bedroom, nursing an irrational fear that he’d suddenly developed cold feet and regretted our spur-of-the-moment n
The Alpha King's Breeder Out of the Shadows
ArisSapphire Ridge isn’t a beautiful place by any means. Compared to the sub-tropical, evergreen landscape of the capital, the Ridge is, for the most part, buried in several feet of fog on even the sunniest of days. Today is no exception. It’s raining. Pouring, to be completely, brutally honest. The hood of my cloak is sopping wet by the time I reach the gate of the castle, which opens wide with the help of a quartet of guards who either sensed my presence or open the gate for anyone who comes near, the latter being more likely. Sapphire Ridge is secluded, rural, and not friendly to outsiders. Everyone here–all two-hundred pack members or so–are related loosely, I believe. Distance cousins–at bes–are given the preference to marry and reproduce for alchemy power over love or even the mate bond. The castle of Sapphire Ridge is a boxy fortress of moss-eaten gray stone that casts the rest of the village buildings in its shadow. Built into the side of the mountain, its grounds are littl
The Alpha King's Breeder Why Wait?
ArisI’ve seen things in my life I can’t explain. This is, by far, the most intense. I was perfectly fine staying ignorant of the fact that the spirits who keep the castle running like a well-oiled machine were once people, and that Soren was right about being unnerved by their ghostly presence. But this is…. This is just… Posey steps forward to stand between me and the young woman draped in silver moonlight, her gown like something out of the ancient books in Arthur’s archives. It’s strange seeing the haunting outline of the diadem on her head, her dark, tightly curled hair woven through the slits of metal in an intricate updo compared to Posey, soot-stained and gorgeous, still in her apron, the diadem resting on top of her thick, strawberry-blonde waves. Two princesses separated by death and centuries stare at each other for a very long time. I feel the male spirit's presence nearby, but he’s invisible, just a touch of air on the side of my cheek. Isolde, that’s what Posey ca
The Alpha King's Breeder A Proposal and a Promise
The fawn is all legs in Aris’s arms as he walks her out of my alchemy room, where she’s been bouncing across the floorboards for the last hour, jumping on any flat surface and threatening to lose her life repeatedly around everything hard and sharp. Heat pours from my fingertips. I smooth a length of silver flat, the molten metal reflecting red against the granite, when Aris returns in a huff, sweaty, new bruises on his forearms when he rolls up his sleeves. He tsks, giving me an incredulous look before easing into his resigned seat at my worktable–the only stool strong enough to hold his impressive stature and weight. “You may have been right.”“About what?” I tease, picking up the tools I need to begin etching the strip of silver. “That our darling daughter is a wild animal and would be better suited to a life outside.”“Our daughter?” I laugh, and it’s pitched. “Aris!”“Do that again.” He braces his hands on the granite and eases up, leaning forward. “Do what?”“Smile like that
The Alpha King's Breeder A Shift in Disposition
PoseyThe snow is wet and thick beneath my paws, unlike a few days ago when everything was a frozen wasteland. I can prance easily, staying mostly on top of the snow instead of sinking into it, and the air feels cold but in a good way instead of that teeth-rattling chill. I have no idea where we’re going, and I don’t think Aris does either. He’s quick and sure-footed, but so am I, and while we race and weave between trees and leap off rocks jutting out of the snow, our movements begin to sync until I’m beside him instead of behind him. The forest thins to reveal the shallow valley he was talking about earlier. The ground beneath us tilts into the valley, slippery and uneven. When I slow and carefully pick my way down, Aris has other plans. He pounces on me, sending us both careening through the snow, and the play fight that ensues has birds soaring from the trees in alarm. He pins me twice, rolling me onto my back, dragging me over the snow and delighting in my little squeals, but
