Nadia's POV

The heavy wooden door closed behind me with a soft click. The sound was as final as a judge hitting his desk with a small hammer to end a trial. Then I heard the lock turn. It was a sharp sound that seemed to bounce off the walls of my suddenly quiet room. I was alone. Or at least, my body was alone in this large, pretty prison. My spirit, my heart… they were not with me.

They were out in the hallway, broken into pieces on the cold stone floor next to the crushed flowers Neal had brought for me. I could still feel the echo of his pain. It was like a cold, hurting wind blowing through the mate bond we shared. His hurt was like a live wire, sending little shocks through my own nerves. His broken heart was beating a rough, unsteady rhythm inside my own chest.

I made myself look down, away from the door. There they were. A sad, messy collection of blue, white, and yellow. They had been so delicate. So pretty. Now they just looked like lies. Pretty little lies that had been cru

  • The Dumb Cursed Heiress and Her Mates: Reborn For Revenge    The Breaking

    Nadia’s POVThe pack gathered under the full moon. This gathering should have felt like family. Instead, it felt like a funeral.Everyone was there. The whole pack stood in the big clearing behind the castle. The moon was a bright, cold coin in the black sky. It showed every face, every worry.On one side, Noah stood tall. Maya was glued to his side, wearing a new dress the color of moonlight. She looked like a pretty little doll. Her smile was small and sweet, but her eyes were hungry. They swept over the crowd, looking for something. Looking for me.On the other side, I stood with the ones who were still loyal. Old Man Hermlock. The healer. We stood close together.Then Neal walked out.He didn’t stand with us. He walked across the empty space and stopped beside Noah. My heart squeezed tight. He didn’t look at me.Noah raised a hand. The murmuring crowd went silent.“Brothers and sisters,” Noah’s voice was loud, echoing in the night. “We stand at a new beginning. The Moon Goddess ha

  • The Dumb Cursed Heiress and Her Mates: Reborn For Revenge    The Sacrifice  

    Neal’s POVI couldn’t stand it anymore.Watching Valerie walk through the halls was like watching a ghost. A beautiful, sad ghost that everyone was afraid to touch. Kael’s men were always there, like shadows with cold eyes. They didn’t touch her, they didn’t speak to her. They just watched. It was worse than if they had shouted. Their silence was a wall, and she was trapped inside it.She tried to be brave for me. She would smile her small smile and squeeze my hand. But her eyes… her eyes were miles away. They were in some dark place I couldn’t reach. She jumped at small sounds. She stopped trying to go to the gardens, to the kitchens. She just stayed in our room, or sat by the window, staring out at a world she couldn’t touch.It was killing me.I found Noah in the war room. He was alone, looking at maps. He didn’t look up when I walked in.“We need to talk,” I said, my voice hard.“I’m busy,” he said, still not looking.“I don’t care.” I walked up and slammed my hands on the table,

  • The Dumb Cursed Heiress and Her Mates: Reborn For Revenge    The Cage

    Nadia's POVThe walls were closing in. I could feel them.It started the morning after the feast. I went to the healer’s hut, like I always did, to help . But two warriors were standing outside the door. Kael’s men.“Healer is busy,” one said, not looking at my face. His voice was flat. “No visitors today.”I stood there, holding my basket of clean bandages. Agatha was never too busy for me. I tried to step forward, to show him the basket.He moved, blocking the door with his whole body. “I said, she’s busy. Go back to your room.”His eyes were empty. There was no arguing with them.I walked away, my face hot. I could feel his stare on my back. It wasn’t the only one.Everywhere I went, they were there. A young warrior leaning against the wall, watching me cross the courtyard. Two more by the kitchens, stopping their talk to stare as I passed. Their eyes followed me, cold and heavy.I went for a walk in the gardens, to the quiet patch of herbs by the eastern wall. It was my place to

  • The Dumb Cursed Heiress and Her Mates: Reborn For Revenge    The Doubt

    Noah's POVThe feast was over, but the feeling in my gut wasn't. It was a cold, hard knot. Valerie's face at the table kept flashing in my mind. The way she’d gone white as a sheet. The way her eyes had looked through all of us, like she was seeing a nightmare right there in the hall.I was in my study, trying to shake it off, when Maya came in. She moved like a soft breeze, closing the door quietly behind her.“Noah?” she said, her voice a gentle whisper. “Are you alright? You seem troubled.”I rubbed my forehead. “It’s nothing. Just tired.”She came closer, her hand resting lightly on my arm. “It’s not nothing. I saw it too. At the feast. It was… strange.”I looked at her. “What was strange?”She bit her lip, like she was unsure about speaking. “It’s just… Valerie’s reaction. When Lucien’s name came up. It was so… strong. So full of fear.” She moved her hand, her fingers tracing a worried pattern on my sleeve. “Most people, they get angry at the mention of an enemy. Or they get dete

  • The Dumb Cursed Heiress and Her Mates: Reborn For Revenge    The Ghost at the Feast

    Nadia POVThe great hall was full of noise, but it was the wrong kind. It wasn’t the happy noise of a pack sharing a meal. It was the tense, sharp noise of a pack holding its breath. Every laugh from Noah’s end of the room felt too loud, like a challenge. Every quiet word from our end felt heavy, like a secret.You could see the split right down the middle of the room, clear as a knife cut.At the head table on one side, Noah sat in his big Alpha chair. Maya was pressed to his side like a second skin, her arm linked through his. Around them sat Kael and the other younger warriors, the ones who liked Noah’s new, bold way of talking. They laughed loud at his jokes, they cheered when he spoke, but their eyes were hard, always watching us.At the other big table, Neal sat. I was right beside him, my chair close to his. Old Man Hermlock was there, his wrinkled face serious. the healer sat with us too, and a few of the older, steadier warriors with grey in their hair and scars on their arms

  • The Dumb Cursed Heiress and Her Mates: Reborn For Revenge    The Viper’s Rattle

    Maya’s POVNoah is soft in my hands now. Like warm clay. After his big fight with his brother, he came to find me. He held me close, his face buried in my hair. He told me I was the only one who truly understood him. The only one who saw his vision. It is almost too easy now. But easy is boring. I do not just want to be loved. I want to be listened to. I want my words to be law. I want people to hear my voice and jump.It starts small. In the kitchen after the noon meal. The head cook is there, a large woman with a red, sweaty face, stirring a big pot.I walk in, smiling my sweetest, most harmless smile. “Hello there,” I say, my voice like a soft song.She turns, wiping her hands on her dirty apron. “Oh. Miss Maya. Do you need something? Something to eat?”“The Alpha Noah was just talking with me,” I say, my voice light and airy, like I am sharing a happy secret. “He said the smell of strong onion is too much for him now. It hurts his head. For dinner tonight, he wants only the gentle
