Darien

I hadn't planned to stay.

The balcony above the training yard was cold as hell, the wind cutting through even the thick fur lining of my coat. I'd come up here to check on the new officers, to see if Leah was making any progress with them. A quick glance, maybe ten minutes, then I'd head back inside to deal with the mountain of paperwork waiting on my desk.

But then she'd stepped onto the training field, and I'd stayed.

I told myself it was professional curiosity. She was an unknown variable, an outsider brought in to help rebuild a pack that had been gutted and restructured. I needed to know if she could handle herself. She wasn’t the first we had asked to come to the pack. Everyone else left with their tails tucked the following day. Did we really need help? No, we were doing our own assessment. So, I stayed watching, making sure she was up to the task.

That's what I told myself.

But when Ronan started circling her, when his growl echoed across the yard, something in me still

  • The Alpha’s Shadow Luna   Chapter 41

    LeahI was watching the fight that seemed to be dragging out forever. Minutes felt like hours as Keanu's dragon and Darien's lycan clashed in displays of power that should have terrified me. Should have made me want to look away. But I couldn't. My eyes tracked every movement, every strike, cataloging each injury with a growing knot in my stomach.Cain almost looked bored. Relaxed, even. As if chaos wasn't unfolding below us. He leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, occasionally glancing at the window but mostly watching me with an expression I couldn't quite read.I guess he had seen fights like this before. Had witnessed feral shifters and the violence required to bring them back. For him, this was just another day in the frozen north.For me, it was watching two people I cared about tear each other apart."Do you want to talk about it?" I heard Cain say from behind me.I glanced at him and he arched his brow, a knowing smile playing at his lips."About what?" I turned back

    The dragon's head snapped toward me, those burning eyes locking onto my movement. Heat rolled off its body in waves, scorching the air, making it hard to breathe.It growled, a sound that vibrated in my bones, and golden light built in its throat again.Darien was suddenly there, materializing between me and the dragon so fast I didn't see him move. His arms wrapped around me, pulling me against his chest, and I felt power surge through him as another barrier sprang up.The flames hit us.Even through Darien's shield, the heat was incredible. I pressed my face into his chest, feeling his heart racing against my cheek, feeling the way his muscles strained as he held the barrier against the onslaught.When the flames finally stopped, Darien's arms loosened slightly but didn't let go. I looked up at him and gasped.Burns marked his forearms, angry red welts where the flames had gotten through his defenses. Where he'd taken the damage meant for me."You're hurt," I whispered."I gladly b

  • The Alpha’s Shadow Luna   Chapter 39

    LeahThe training arena was cold, despite the bodies moving through it. I sat in the observation area, my arms wrapped around myself, watching three males circle each other in the space below. Two days. It had been two days since Andromeda's voice had gone silent, leaving nothing but echoes and questions in its wake.Two days of Darien hovering. Two days of sleeping in the same room with both him and Keanu because they both insisted on sleeping with me. Two days of never having a single moment alone with my stepbrother to tell him the truth about what my wolf had said before she went dormant again.Mate.The word still rang in my memory, clear as a bell, even though Andromeda's presence was gone. I could feel the mate bond when Darien was near, a gentle pull that wasn't overwhelming anymore but was definitely there.But I hadn't told anyone. Not Keanu … Not Darien, who probably suspected something after the way I'd acted during our trek back from the sanctuary. The secret sat heavy in

    "I appreciate that you both want to protect me," I said, keeping my voice steady. "I do. But I'm not a prize to be won or a problem to be solved. I get to decide what happens to me. Not you." I looked at Keanu. "And not you." I looked at Darien.Keanu's expression shifted to something like shame. "Leah, I didn't mean—""I know." I softened my tone slightly. "I know you're trying to help. Both of you. But I need you to understand something. I won’t be talked over and ignored, or treated like I don’t matter. I will not go back to that. I won’t let anyone, even people who care about me, make choices for me."The room was quiet. I could see Darien processing my words, could see the moment he connected them to what I'd told him about Shane. His jaw tightened, and I knew he was remembering. The story of my ex-fiancé who'd used me. The humiliation of being discarded for my own sister."You're right," he said finally. "I'm sorry."The apology was simple and sincere, and something in my chest

  • The Alpha’s Shadow Luna   Chapter 37

    I woke up to growling."That's my sister!""You aren't related by blood, and you are a man. You calling her your sister isn't enough for me.""And you calling yourself her mate isn't enough for me."The growling continued. I blinked, letting my eyes adjust to the chaos in front of me. Darien was standing at the foot of the bed, his posture rigid with tension. Keanu faced him from barely two feet away, his amber eyes blazing with protective fury. Cain stood between them with his arms outstretched, looking like a referee at a boxing match who'd lost control of the fighters."Too loud," I groaned, moving to sit up.Darien was instantly by my side, his hand finding mine on top of the furs. Keanu growled and began making his way around to the other side of the bed. The snarling continued, the two of them glaring at each other across me like I was a bone they were fighting over.But that was when I realized something.My eyes widened and my body went rigid as I stared at nothing, searching

  • The Alpha’s Shadow Luna   Chapter 36

    The moment his fingers brushed my cheek, electricity shot through me. The tingles exploded across my skin, a thousand times stronger than before, and I gasped. My wolf howled with pleasure, pressing against my skin, wanting to shift and claim our mate right here in the snow.I jerked back, nearly tripping over my own feet in my haste to put distance between us.Hurt and confusion flashed across Darien's face. He looked at his hand, then at me, his brow furrowing."Did I hurt you?""No," I said quickly."I just, I'm cold. The touch was cold."It was possibly the worst lie I'd ever told. His touch had been anything but cold. It had been fire and lightning, and every good thing I'd ever felt amplified to an almost painful degree.Smooth, my wolf said sarcastically. Very convincing.If I could deck my wolf right now, I would. Shut up!He is not an idiot. You are making things worse.Darien didn't look convinced either. His eyes narrowed slightly, studying me with an intensity that made me
