Damian's POV

My wolf woke me before the sound did. A deep, violent surge of instinct ripped me out of sleep. Like danger. Close and real.

I was already halfway out of bed when the knock slammed against my door.

“Damian!” Luca said urgently.

I opened the door immediately. Luca stood in the hallway, already dressed, his expression sharp and alert.

“What happened?” I asked.

“Territory patrol just called.”

My wolf growled low in my chest. “Who crossed?”

Luca shook his head once. “Rogues.”

  • The Alpha's Christmas Sin   Chapter Eighty three — Finding the door

    Ava's POVLuca found me at dawn. I hadn't moved from the garden. The frost had gotten into everything; my clothes, my hands, the wolf bone wound on my arm that had finally begun its slow, painful healing sometime in the early hours when Selene's compound finished its work and my body started catching up. I was aware of all of it, and none of it was the thing I was thinking about.He came across the frozen grass without speaking, his boots leaving dark prints in the frost. He crouched beside me. Luca had an expression for threats, an expression for protocol, an expression for when things went according to plan. He didn't have an expression for this. He was making one up in real time."Ava..." he began."I know."He was quiet for a moment, looking at Damian. "Theo is with Jamie," Luca said. "Elena is inside. Sera has the perimeter." He paused. "Nobody came outside until now.""Because you told them not to.""Yes.""Thank you."He looked at the sparrows for a long moment. Then back at me

  • The Alpha's Christmas Sin   Chapter Eighty two— The Last music

    Ava’s POVThe manor glowed warm behind us, its windows spilling amber light across the frozen grass. Jamie was in there. Elena. Theo. The ordinary things the evening had interrupted would resume in the morning, but the garden was where we were, and the garden was where we stayed because the garden knew us and we knew it. It had held us through the first shift and the rogues and the territorial claim. It could hold this too.Damian sat down in the frost before his legs could ask permission.I caught his arm and went down with him, which prevented us from falling together. The frozen grass crunching beneath us, cold seeping through my ruined clothes immediately. Neither of us cared. The cold was honest and real but I could work with real.I sat beside him, our shoulders touching, and the bond between us the most present thing. Still warm. Still steady on the surface. But carrying underneath it the specific damage Elena had described; the anchor function degraded, the cellular-level woun

  • The Alpha's Christmas Sin   Chapter Eighty-one — The Drive Home

    Damian's POVI knew before we reached the main road. Not from the wolf bone wound I could feel Ava fighting to stabilize. From my own body, telling me things in the way bodies tell you when you've been asking them to carry more than is sustainable for long enough that the asking has run out its tolerance.The dart compound hadn't been suppression compound. Leo had identified it through a network contact, a wolf-specific toxin targeting bond coherence at the cellular level, developed by a researcher Vincenzo had been funding for over a decade. It didn't sever the bond. It degraded the anchor function. Slowly. Specifically. At the precise physical location where the mate bond anchored in the body.The same location Selene had aimed the wolf bone knife at.Two separate approaches to the same objective. Neither had fully succeeded in isolation. Together, they'd produced something that was currently making its presence known in my chest with the persistence of a thing that wasn't going to

  • The Alpha's Christmas Sin   Chapter Eighty— The Last Move

    Ava’s POVThe clearing had gone quiet, but not the kind of quiet that meant peace. It was the held-breath silence of something almost finished, hovering on the edge of resolution and still dangerous.Selene lay pinned to the frost by the ground itself, her dark wolf form motionless, silver eyes fixed on the stars above the old-growth trees. She hadn't moved since the clarification settled. I didn't know if she couldn't or wouldn't. Maybe both. Vincenzo still sat where I'd left him, the discharged dart gleaming beside him, his expensive coat soaking through, his expression carrying the particular emptiness of a man who'd just discovered that everything he'd built had been built on sand. Adrian stood at the treeline with Luca's hand still clamped on his arm. He hadn't spoken since that moment he'd looked at Damian and then looked away… the most honest thing I'd ever seen him do, and probably the most honest thing he'd ever done.The elder council ringed the clearing like ancient stones.

  • The Alpha's Christmas Sin   CHAPTER SIXTEEN — Into The Wild

    Ava's POVThe pack meeting was not in a forest.I don't know exactly what I had been picturing. Something atmospheric probably. Torches maybe. Ancient trees and moonlight and wolves standing in a circle doing something ceremonial and vaguely threatening. Jamie had suggested a cave when I told her t

    Ava's POVThursday came in gray and cold and I was already awake before my alarm.I had been lying in the dark since five thinking about what Elena might say and trying to prepare myself for something I couldn't prepare for because I didn't know what shape it was yet. That's the thing about waiting

    Ava's POVI woke up at three in the morning with my heart beating too fast and my skin on fire.Literally on fire,not just a figure of speech or at least that was what it felt like, a burning that started at the surface and went deeper than skin, moving through muscle and bone like something trying

    Ava's POVThree days into living at the manor and I had developed a system.Wake up before seven, beat Damian to the kitchen, pour my coffee, and position myself at the far end of the counter with my phone before he came downstairs. That way we could exist in the same space without the particular a
