Eve looked at her.

Vessa was looking at the street. The cat. The amber light on the old stone buildings.

She looked smaller outside than she had in the back room. Not less.....just smaller. A person rather than a source of information. An old woman who had been carrying something for a very long time and was only now putting part of it down.

"You've been in Aldenmere since you got our response," Eve said.

"Yes."

"That was ten days ago."

"Yes."

"You've been sitting in that inn for ten days."

  • The Alpha Kings And Their Stripper Mate   Chapter 312: Setting A trap For Callum

    Silas delivered the false information the next morning.Casually. Over coffee. The same table, the same routine, everything exactly as it always was.He told Callum that Vessa.....without naming her.....had given them a specific legal precedent. A case from eighty years ago where the Biological Sovereignty Clause had been successfully challenged on the grounds of documented pre-existing bond formation. That they were planning to use it as their primary counter when Malachai filed.It wasn't true.It was close enough to true to be believable.Callum listened and nodded, asked two questions that were exactly the right questions....the ones a man doing his job would ask, not the ones a man feeding information elsewhere would ask.He was good.Silas gave him that.He was very good."Makes sense," Callum said. Set down his cup. Picked up the morning schedule.And moved on.Silas watched him move on.Kept his face exactly where it needed to be and waited for him to take the bait.***The co

  • The Alpha Kings And Their Stripper Mate   Chapter 311: The Watch

    Silas's POVHe was up before everyone else.That was normal.What wasn't normal was standing in the kitchen at five in the morning running through every conversation he'd had with Callum in the past three weeks and looking for the gaps.They were there.He just hadn't been looking before.Callum arrived at seven.Same time he always arrived. Same knock on the study door. Same cup of coffee in hand.....black, no sugar, the specific creature of habit that twenty years of pack routine produced.He looked exactly the same.That was the thing.Silas had expected something visible. Some tell. Some quality that would announce itself now that he knew what he was looking for.There was nothing.Just Callum. Steady. Familiar. The man he'd trusted with the east wing logistics and the border rotation schedule and the names of every pack member's children."Morning," Callum said."Morning," Silas said.He poured his own coffee.They sat across from each other at the small table in the corner of th

  • The Alpha Kings And Their Stripper Mate   Chapter 310: The Pendant

    Eve looked at her.Vessa was looking at the street. The cat. The amber light on the old stone buildings.She looked smaller outside than she had in the back room. Not less.....just smaller. A person rather than a source of information. An old woman who had been carrying something for a very long time and was only now putting part of it down."You've been in Aldenmere since you got our response," Eve said."Yes.""That was ten days ago.""Yes.""You've been sitting in that inn for ten days."Vessa looked at her. Something almost dry in it. "I've had worse waits."Eve almost smiled."You really knew her," Eve said. "My mother.""Yes.""Not just....politically. Not just as an ally.""No." Vessa was quiet for a moment. "We met when she was twenty. Before Azrael. Before the Court politics and the throne claim and all of it." A pause. "She was....a lot to be around. Too much energy for any room she walked into. Laughed too loud. Had opinions about everything and no patience for people who d

  • The Alpha Kings And Their Stripper Mate   Chapter 309: Callum

    The fire.The quiet room.Eve looked at the folder on the table. At twelve pages of forty one years.She thought about the hearing. About standing at that table and saying I would do it again. About three to two and Cassius's voice in the still room and the feeling of Damian's hands on her shoulders after.She'd thought that was the hard part.She'd thought coming home was the exhale.It was. It had been.But the exhale was over."What do we do about Callum," Silas said.He asked it quietly. Not to the room. To Damian.Damian was looking at the table.Eve knew that look. The one where he was three steps ahead and didn't love where the steps were going."We don't confront him," Damian said. "Not yet. If he's compromised and we move too fast he goes to ground and we lose the thread." A pause. "We watch. We give him nothing he can use. And we wait for him to show us where he is.""And if he already has what he needs," Damon said."Then we deal with that when we know what it is," Damian s

  • The Alpha Kings And Their Stripper Mate   Chapter 308: Malachai Is Going After The Pack

    The fire crackled.Nobody moved."He's not coming after Eve directly," Vessa said. "He learned from the hearing. Direct confrontation is not how he wins." Her eyes were steady and serious and completely without performance. "He's going after the pack."Damian went still."The internal doubt," Silas said quietly. "The questions about the bond. About a succubus Luna.""He didn't start those questions," Vessa said. "But he found them. And he's been feeding them." A pause. "Very carefully. Very quietly." She looked at Damian. "He's done it before. To your father. Twenty years ago. Before Aldric understood what was happening it was already done."The room was very quiet.Damian looked at the folder on the table.At Vessa's hand resting on top of it.At Eve across from him....still, present, taking all of it in with the focused attention that meant she was already building something in her head.He reached across the table.Put his hand on the folder.Vessa lifted hers."Start from the begi

  • The Alpha Kings And Their Stripper Mate   Chapter 307: Aldenmere

    Damian's POVThey left at midday.No pack escort. No formal convoy. Just the four of them heading north on roads that got quieter the further they went from Blackwood territory.They'd spent a week on Aldenmere, Silas pulling records, Damon mapping exits, Damian cross referencing everything Vessa's letter had claimed against forty years of Conclave documentation. Every detail had checked out. Every detail that could be checked.The ones that couldn't were the reason they were driving north instead of writing back.***Aldenmere was small.The kind of village that existed in the gaps between larger places....one main road, a handful of shops, houses set back behind old stone walls. The place looked like it had been there for three hundred years.It was a smart location.The Grey Bell was at the far end of the main road. Old building. Low ceilings visible through the front windows. A sign that had been repainted recently but hung on original ironwork.He parked the car and sat back on t

    DAMIAN'S OFFICE - BROTHER'S DISCUSSIONThe three brothers sat in Damian's office, the door locked, supposed business documents spread across the desk that none of them were actually reading."We need to talk about last night," Silas said finally, breaking the tense silence."What about it?"

  • The Alpha Kings And Their Stripper Mate   Chapter 13: Fuck, she's insatiable

    Eve's cry echoed off the tile as he took her roughly from behind, his reflection in the mirror showing that usual intense focus. Making her watch herself being fucked, seeing her own face contort with pleasure."Eyes on the mirror," he commanded when she tried to look away. "Watch what we do to you

    "How?" Damian challenged. "By abandoning our dying mate to save our pack? By choosing duty over the woman the universe literally bonded us to? By gambling that she'll survive three days alone when every instinct we have is screaming that she won't?""Yes," Eve responded. "By doing exactly that. By

    "He can't do that," Damon said flatly. "The northern territory has been ours for three generations. Our grandfather bled for that land. Our father died defending it. It's ours by right of blood and conquest.""It's ours unless we fail to respond to a formal challenge," Damian corrected, his voice h
