Clara's POV

"Clara, breathe. Just breathe."

Emma's voice comes through my phone as I hide behind the archive shelves, listening to Helena and her companion descend the stairs. My sister doesn't know about wolves or curses, but she knows panic when she hears it.

"I can't… there's no way out…"

"There's always a way out. You're a doctor. You've handled worse than this." Emma's practical voice cuts through my terror. "What's around you?"

I force myself to look. Old shelves. Boxes. A ventilati

  • The Alpha's Last Choice   Chapter 38: Poisoned

    Clara's POV"Drink this. It will help with the pain."Lydia hands me a cup of tea that smells like lavender and something else I can't identify. We're in her quarters, a surprisingly elegant space that looks more like a luxury hotel room than a prison. But that's what it is. A gilded cage where I'm supposed to prepare for my own spectacular failure.Three days. That's how long I've been here. Three days of watching Lydia prepare for the blood moon ritual. Three days of not seeing Emma, not seeing Kael, not knowing if they're even alive."What's in it?" I ask, staring at the cup."Medicine. Herbs. Things to stabilize your transformation so it happens exactly the way I want it to." Lydia smiles. "You need to be strong enough to attempt the ritual completely. Strong enough that everyone watching understands you had a real chance. And then you need to fail spectacularly enough that no one ever tries again."I don't drink it. Set the cup on the table untouched."If you don't cooperate, Emm

  • The Alpha's Last Choice   Chapter 37: The Real Enemy

    Clara's POVThe coven's headquarters doesn't look like what I expected. No dark gothic mansion or creepy forest cottage. It's a modern building tucked into the suburbs… looks like any other office complex except for the protective symbols carved into the doorframes."Welcome," a woman says as we enter. She's younger than I expected, maybe forty, with warm brown eyes and gray streaking her black hair. "I'm Cassandra. You must be Clara.""How did you…""Know your name? Kael called ahead. Explained the situation." She gestures for us to follow. "Come. We have much to discuss."The interior is surprisingly normal. Modern furniture, soft lighting, the kind of place that could be a therapist's office or upscale meditation center. Three other women work at computers, and I catch them watching me with clinical interest."You're transforming," Cassandra observes, studying me carefully. "I can see it in your bones. The structure's already changing. You're further along than most.""Is that good

  • The Alpha's Last Choice   Chapter 36: The Rescue Mission

    Kael's POV"They have her. Confirmed sighting at the Bloodfang compound forty minutes north of here."Damon's voice comes through the radio as I stare at the crushed phone one of my warriors found in the coffee shop. Emma's phone. Destroyed deliberately. A message."How many guards?" I ask, already moving toward the armory."Twenty, maybe thirty. Hard to get exact numbers without being spotted.""And Marcus?""Inside. Probably in his office making some grand gesture about honor and negotiation." Damon's voice carries disgust. "He's going to offer a trade. Emma for Clara's cooperation with something.""I don't care what he offers." I grab weapons… gun, silver-edged blade, the works. "We're getting Emma back.""Kael, wait." That's Damon's beta voice. The one he uses when he's about to say something I don't want to hear. "This smells like a trap. Marcus isn't stupid enough to grab Emma without a plan. He knows we'll come.""So?""So we need to think about what he actually wants. He alrea

  • The Alpha's Last Choice   Chapter 35: Kidnapping

    Emma's POVThe coffee shop smells like burnt espresso and old pastries. I'm sitting by the window, watching Clara and Kael talk in the car across the street. They look intense. Serious. The way people look when they're discussing life and death.Which I guess they are.My sister is turning into a werewolf. This is my life now."Refill?" The barista… a girl about my age with purple hair… gestures to my empty cup."Sure, thanks."She pours, and I notice her hands. They're shaking slightly. And she keeps glancing at the door like she's nervous."You okay?" I ask."Fine. Just... tired." But she won't meet my eyes.The bell above the door chimes. Three men walk in. Big guys, moving with that same fluid grace Clara's guards have. That supernatural thing I'm learning to recognize.But something feels wrong. The barista tenses. One of the men locks the door behind them."Emma Veyron?" The tallest one speaks. Dark hair, cold eyes, expensive suit. "We need you to come with us."My heart starts

  • The Alpha's Last Choice   Chapter 34: Sister's Arrival

    Clara's POV "I don't care what you say. I'm not staying locked in some safe house while my sister is dying."Emma's voice carries through the hotel room door before I even knock. She's arguing with the guards Kael assigned her… two patient warriors who clearly didn't sign up for babysitting duty.I open the door. "Emma."She spins around, and her face goes through several emotions… relief, anger, fear, then back to anger."Clara." She crosses the room and hugs me so hard my ribs protest. Then she pulls back and punches my shoulder. "What the hell is going on? Armed men grabbed me from my apartment. Told me I was in danger. Wouldn't explain why. And you…" She stops, really looking at me. "Oh my God. What happened to you?"I catch my reflection in the hotel mirror. I've lost at least fifteen pounds. My skin is pale, almost translucent. Dark circles under my eyes make me look like I haven't slept in weeks. Which I haven't, really."It's complicated," I say."Complicated? Clara, you look

    Clara's POV "You can't be serious about going down there."Damon blocks the entrance to the east wing's restricted section. Behind him, a heavy wooden door marked with symbols I don't recognize leads to the pack archives."Samuel said something before they took him away. About records from Kael's

    Clara's POV "You're shaking."Kael's voice is soft against my ear. We're in his bed, the door locked, the rest of the world temporarily forgotten. After weeks of guards and attacks and death, we both needed this, just us, no pack politics, no prophecies.His hands trace patterns on my skin, gentle
