“You should've notified us of your arrival at least.” Aurora snaps at Lincoln.

Her brother just shrugs like he couldn't be less bothered by her unpleasant expression, his focus unwavering from the piece of toast in his hand.

About an hour after my parting with Lincoln, Clara had come in to let me know that Ethan had requested my presence at the Palace dinning room.

It was my first time having a meal in the presence of anyone else besides myself and aside from the time Ethan and I had dined together back at silver moon.

And so here I was, in the private dining room, a cut-off from the bigger one used by the pack members.

Awkward silence made it difficult to have food pass through my throat pleasantly, coupled with Aurora's constant pokes and lash outs at her brother.

Ethan had invited Lincoln as well, but for some reason, Aurora's displeasure at his presence grew with every passing minute.

“I'll be around for a while little sis” comes his causal reply, unfazed by her glare. “Doesn't re

  • The Alpha’s Untamed Beast is   Chapter 58

    LYRA'S POVWe shouldn't be doing this...The thoughts keep nagging in the back of my mind as Clara and I head on further into the words.We've crossed into the trees that frame the outermost borders of Ravenwood...the kind of place that looks like it belongs in a nightmare.Tall, twisted pines that lean in like they're listening. The air smells like moss and damp leaves...and something else.The woods are quiet. Too quiet.The kind of quiet that wraps around your neck like a noose.Branches snap at our feet as we creep deeper into the forest, the clearing drawing closer with every step. The moon is high, casting a pale light over everything, and Clara walks beside me with her arms crossed tightly, eyes scanning the trees."Tell me again," Clara whispers, clutching her coat tighter, "why are we doing this without informing the Alpha?"She had to be kidding me...I'd found the note crumpled under my doorframe like it was never meant to be discovered.The handwriting jagged, tilted... al

  • The Alpha’s Untamed Beast is   Chapter 57

    LYRA'S POVLater that night, Clara falls asleep again, curled into the infirmary bed like she's hiding from the world. Her fingers twitch every so often, like her dreams are crawling under her skin.I haven't left her side... I can't.Not since she screamed like that. Just as my mind has been anything but at ease since she said someone was watching her through the mirror that night.It was one crazy bit to have the situation of the reoccurring dead, mutilated bodies and then this as well.And yet, Aurora remained unfound and I hadn't gotten any feedback from Amanda even.Footsteps approaching startles me briefly and I turn to see Dan walking over with a tray of food neither of us will touch."Luna." He greets coming to stand beside the chair in seated on."How did the rounds go?" I say referring to the additional security rounds the guards and every warrior have been busy with these days.Ethan had implemented more safety measures and doubled the shifts, giving everyone as well as hi

  • The Alpha’s Untamed Beast is   Chapter 56

    CLARA'S POVThe silence in Alpha Ethan's study is so loud I can hear my heartbeat. It's not just nerves. It's that deep, instinctive dread that curls in your stomach when your reality begins to split at the seams."I don't know what's happening to me." I whisper. "But it didn't just start with the mirror."Alpha Ethan doesn't move. He watches me the way someone might study an unfamiliar creature. Calm. Still. But will caution sharp in his eyes."I keep seeing things." I continue, wringing my hands. "Symbols, figures. Whispering voices that sound like mine...but isn't."That gets a flicker from him– an almost imperceptible tension in his shoulders."I've been waking up seeing scratches on my arms. Bruises I can't explain. I...I think I've been sleepwalking."His voice is low. "Or being led."I lool up sharply...this was harder than I thought."What?"Alpha Ethan stands, slow and heavy like his body is weighing every thought. He crosses his arms and begins to pace around the room. "You

  • The Alpha’s Untamed Beast is   Chapter 55

    LYRA'S POVThe morning light slips through the open curtains. A golden haze stretching across the room and slipping lazily over Ethan's bed.I blink awake slowly, breathing in the soft scent of his cologne tangled in pine and warmth. The kind of scent that makes your chest ache in the best way.The sheets are a mess, one of his arms thrown around my waist, holding me hostage in the best possible way.He's on his back, hair damp from the shower last night, his face is relaxed in sleep, jaw less tense, lashes long and dark against his cheek. This version of him is unburdened, peaceful– rare. And so, so beautiful.There's something so boyish about watching Ethan sleep. Like the alpha armor falls off and I get off the man beneath.I smile and shift just enough to reach up and brush a lock of hair away from his forehead. He stirs slightly, tightening his hold on me like some part of him knows I'm trying to move. I give up quickly because honestly? There's nowhere else I'd rather be.I stay

  • The Alpha’s Untamed Beast is   Chapter 54

    ETHAN'S POV*MEETING ROOM– LATER THAT NIGHT*“You're telling me this kind of magic doesn't exist in our archives?” I snap at Caleb– the wolf assigned to keep account of every important document.He flinches but holds his ground. “Not in ours. But…maybe in the older texts. Ones that predate the last purge.”Great. Just great! We were going to dig through magic that had been deliberately erased from the records.“Find them.” I say. “I don't care if they're buried under six feet of silver ash, or sealed in blood. I want answers.”“There's one more thing.” He says nervously. “One of the bodies from this morning– wasn't completely dead when we found it.”I freeze.“What?”“He was breathing. Barely. Just long enough to say one thing.”Caleb swallows. “He said. It's awakening.”It feels like a stone got dropped in my stomach and I sigh as I lean against my hands rested on the table.“I've seen symbols like this before. Old witchcraft. Forbidden rites. Blood rituals that require… Offerings.”

  • The Alpha’s Untamed Beast is   Chapter 53

    ETHAN'S POVThe air shifts.That subtle but unmistakable drop in energy– like the calm before a storm, sort of.I immediately straighten, arms tightening around Lyra protectively as I take in the guards' expression.He's pale. Too pale. His eyes wide, glassy with something between fear and disbelief, and I feel all my instincts immediately snap to high alert.“What happened?” I demand, feeling Lyra tense up even more beside me.He swallows, chest heaving. “It's the northern clearing. The warded section you ordered patrols around. We found something…sir, I don't know how to explain it–”My pulse ticks up a notch. “Show me.” I cut him off, not wanting to wait for any more explanation.Lyra grabs my hand before I can leave. “I'm coming with you.”I open my mouth to argue– but I see the gleam in her eyes. That deep-rooted resolve that'd always, always win.I nod once, press a kiss to her temple as we both follow the guard out of the training center and into the open courtyard.We walk for
