"What do you mean you are coming with me?" I ask Atlas, staring at him in surprise. He can't come with me, he just can't.

"I think it's pretty self-explanatory. I am going to help you find your friend." Oh, he is not joking, he is actually thinking about going with me.

"Atlas you can't leave now. You just got back and you have a ceremony to prepare. Your mother wouldn't be happy..."

"I don't care about what my mother wants. Besides, with you gone I won't be able to concentrate on anything that isn't you." Uhh, I really don't want to have this discussion now. Time is of the essence when it comes to finding people and right now I'm wasting it.

"I appreciate that you want to help me, Atlas. I really do, but I need to get going now and you can't leave without notice again. This means you would have a discussion with the Luna and I don't have time for that." I say as I get up but Atlas grabs my hand and pulls me back.

"Either I come with you, or you are not going anywhere." He says dead se

  • The Forsaken   Chapter 77

    The word blood doesn’t echo, it lands. Heavy. Final.Every wolf in the clearing stiffens at once. Even the wind seems to hold its breath. Atlas’s fingers tighten around mine like iron, his other hand already inching toward his blade, though he doesn’t draw it."What?" My voice isn’t steady anymore. It breaks, sharp as glass. "My what?"The elder woman takes a single step closer. Her eyes don’t blink. "Your blood," she repeats, and now her voice isn’t soft at all. "It’s the only way to seal what you’ve broken open."The ritual Atlas did on his ceremony. They want me to swear to this ground, leave my mark on it, and them. Goddess, maybe I should just do it and get it over with. Maybe this is where the voice wanted me to come. Maybe all of this is true even if it feels like a crazy dream. "Fine, I will do it. I will give you my blood and with it claim the right to the pack, and after that, I leave." They all share a look, not really sure what about, but it feels like fear. "But I will co

  • The Forsaken   Chapter 76

    What comes next?What comes next?What. Comes. Next?No matter how I turn it, I do not find an answer to that question. The plan was to cross this territory, not become the Alpha of it. And I hate how everyone is staring at me… well, except for Cole, who is still blissfully unconscious. For a second, I would actually like to switch places with him.I swallow hard, my throat dry, my palms trembling though the glow still crawls under my skin like it’s alive. My voice is hoarse when it comes, but it carries anyway:"For starters, how about you all rise to your feet." The words leave me before I can think about them, and they’re not a question. They’re not a plea. They’re a command.And they obey.The clearing moves like a single creature. Knees lift from the earth, spines straighten, heads rise, dozens of them, maybe more, all at once, like the sound of a great forest of branches snapping upright. The glow tethering them to me flickers once, then brightens, spilling up their arms, their t

  • The Forsaken   Chapter 75

    "What now?" Sofia asks, looking down at the rogues. I have no idea what now. Too many things happened so fast, and between Cole getting hurt and then being saved, I barely had time to draw a breath. "Let me," Amara says as she crunches down next to me, taking Cole's head in her lap so I can stand. "Kaya," Atlas pulls me to his side, his palms coming to rest on my cheeks as he takes a good look into my eyes. So many emotions on his face, more than I could count. "You are Alpha, Kaya. The Alpha of Silver Cressett." Not sure if that was a question or a simple statement. I'm not sure of anything. I keep telling myself it's not possible, that the Alpha is always a son... and that even if I wanted to be the daughter of an Alpha, the Silver Cressett hasn't had an Alpha in more than 300 years. None of this should be real, and yet, now here, standing on this ground... I feel the weight of it settle over me like a cloak I never asked for. Heavy. Unrelenting. Living. But I do not want it. I c

    The word hangs in the air like a blade, Alpha, and it cuts through me just as sharp. My breath comes ragged, the red glow fading but not gone. It’s still there, humming under my skin like something alive."No," I whisper, shaking my head. "No, that’s not..."But the rogues stay on their knees, eyes lowered, trembling. The pressure holding them down isn’t even intentional. It’s me, and that realization makes my stomach lurch. But my confusion, my pain, is to be put aside. I can't think about anything while Cole is bleeding out. "It's not possible, for more than one reason, first being..." Shaun does what he always does, tries to reason."A woman." Amara says. "A female Alpha." "There is no such thing," Shaun says. "Stop it." I say as I drop to the ground, putting my hand over Cole's bleeding wound. "Help me, he isn't healing." I beg... all of them. My hands are already slick with his blood, hot and sticky between my fingers. I press harder against the wound, but it’s deep, deeper th

  • The Forsaken   Chapter 73

    "Why not just have the witch lift a shield around us?" Shaun asks, his voice cutting clean through the thick silence.All eyes snap to Amara. She doesn’t flinch, doesn’t even blink. She just tilts her head slightly toward Shaun, her expression sharp, almost salty."It requires a lot of power not only to lift a shield but to hold it up," she says, voice dry as a blade. "So between already doing that once today and the magic I used on Kaya, I’m a bit drained right now."I feel my stomach twist at her words. The magic she used on me. Of course, it cost her. Of course, there’s a price. I knew that, I just ignored it for a second."Great, so the witch is useless," Thalia says. "Now what?""She’s not useless," I say, turning to Thalia, voice shaking but steadying with every word. "She’s tired. She’s spent. And she still hasn’t left."Thalia exhales through her nose, not quite apologetic, but not pushing it either. "Fine. No shield. Then someone better come up with something else.""I already

    The word leaves my mouth like a stone dropped into a well. Everyone stiffens at once. Sofia edges closer to Shaun without even realizing it, but she is not hiding behind him, no. She is more than ready to fight if she has to, even if she breaks a nail doing so. Shaun instantly shifts his weight, his body sliding into that easy, quiet readiness that only years of Beta training can give you. His eyes are already scanning the tree line, the way mine are.“Where?” Atlas’s voice is a growl now, not a question. He’s already stepping forward, his own power humming under his skin like a storm building pressure.I lift my chin just slightly, eyes narrowing on the distant shapes. They aren’t moving like hikers. They’re too still. Too coordinated. The shadows waver, then solidify, figures, low and lean, spaced like a hunting line. My stomach drops.“Straight ahead,” I say, low but clear enough for everyone. “About forty yards. Maybe more. They’re waiting.”Thalia draws in a slow breath through he
