The address Sasha had sent was in the suburbs, a quiet neighborhood where every house looked the same. Identical lawns. Identical driveways. Identical cars. The kind of place where people went to disappear, to live out their years in peace, to forget whatever they had done before.

Raven parked on the street and sat for a moment with her hands on the steering wheel. The morning was gray and cold, the sky low and heavy. A dog barked somewhere in the distance. A leaf skittered across the pavement.

  • The Last Wolfe   Chapter 26: Dante Visits

    The mansion was dark when Nikolai arrived. He had been summoned by a text, a rare occurrence. Fenris usually came to him, not the other way around. But tonight was different.He found Fenris in the study, standing by the window, his back to the door. The city glittered beyond the glass, a sea of lights and shadows. The room was cold, the fireplace unlit. Fenris had been standing there for hours, staring at nothing, thinking of everything."You found something," Fenris said without turning around.Nikolai stepped inside. He closed the door behind him. The click of the lock echoed in the silence. "Yes.""Tell me.""The Wolfe heir. We have a name."Fenris turned. His gray eyes were flat, hungry, the eyes of a man who had been hunting for eight years and was tired of coming up empty. "What name?""Raven. No location. Just a first name that surfaced in an old police report.""Raven is a common name.""Yes. But the timing matches. The age matches. And she appeared in the city around the sam

  • The Last Wolfe   Chapter 25: The Dinner

    The restaurant was called Solstice, though there was no sign outside to announce it. Just a black door set between two shuttered storefronts, unmarked and unassuming. Raven had been here before. With Fenris. The memory made her chest tighten.She stood on the sidewalk for a long moment, her hand on the cold iron handle, her heart pounding against her ribs.she was here.She pushed the door open and stepped inside.The interior was dimly lit, intimate, with low ceilings and dark wood and candles flickering on every table. The air smelled of wine and cinnamon, warm and heavy. A hostess in a black dress appeared, asked her name, and led her through a maze of quiet corridors to a table near the back.Lucas was already there.He stood when she approached, his smile warm, his eyes bright. He was dressed in a dark suit, no tie, his white shirt open at the collar. He looked handsome. He looked confident. He looked like a man who was used to getting what he wanted."Raven," he said. "You came.

  • The Last Wolfe   Chapter 24: The Invitation

    The morning light was thin and gray when Raven walked into the office. She had not slept well. She had spent the night staring at the ceiling, thinking about Lucas, about Fenris, about the knife's edge she was walking. Her dreams had been restless, full of fire and shadows and hands reaching for her in the dark.She dropped her bag on her desk and sat down. The office was quiet, most of her coworkers not yet arrived. The hum of the fluorescent lights buzzed overhead. The smell of stale coffee lingered in the air.She opened her laptop. The screen glowed to life. She stared at the blank document, the cursor blinking at her like a heartbeat.She could not focus.She kept thinking about Sasha's promise to dig into Lucas Gray. She kept thinking about Fenris's warning. Lucas will not bother you again. She kept thinking about the way Lucas had kissed her, the way his hands had felt on her waist, the way he had smiled when she pushed him away.She shook her head and forced herself to type.T

  • The Last Wolfe   chapter 23: The Nightmare

    The taxi dropped her off in front of her apartment building just as the sun began to dip behind the skyline. Raven paid the driver and stepped out onto the cracked sidewalk. The air was cold, sharp with the smell of rain and exhaust. She stood there for a moment, watching the city darken, watching the streetlights flicker to life one by one.She should go inside. She should eat something. She should sleep.But she did not move.Her mind was still spinning. Fenris's voice echoed in her ears. You are the only thing I cannot live without. Lucas's smile flashed behind her eyes. You did not say no.She was caught between two men. One who wanted to own her. One who wanted to consume her. And neither of them knew the truth about who she really was.She was not just Raven. She was a Wolfe. The last Wolfe. The daughter of a man who had been burned alive. The sister of brothers who had never had the chance to grow up.She had not thought about them in days. Not since Fenris. Not since the basem

  • The Last Wolfe   Chapter 22: The Confrontation

    The door to the hotel room did not open with a knock. It opened with the quiet click of a key card sliding into the lock. Raven looked up from the window, her heart already pounding, because she knew who it would be before she saw him.Fenris stepped inside, and the room seemed to shrink around him. He was dressed in black, his dark hair damp from the rain, his gray eyes fixed on her with an intensity that made her breath catch. He did not speak. He simply stood there, his hand still on the door handle, his chest rising and falling with slow, controlled breaths.Raven did not move from the window. The city lights spilled across her face, painting her in shades of silver and gold. She had been standing here for an hour, trying to think, trying to decide, trying to convince herself that she should leave, that she should run, that she should never look back.But she had not left. She had not run. And now he was here."You should not be here," she said."You should not have ignored me for

  • The Last Wolfe   Chapter 21: The Silence

    The first day without her voice was manageable.Fenris sat in his study, the curtains drawn, the room dark except for the glow of the fireplace. The flames cast restless shadows across the walls. Outside, the wind moved through the trees, rattling the bare branches against the glass. The sky was low and gray, pressed flat against the horizon like a held breath.He dialed her number. It went to voicemail.He did not leave a message.He tried again an hour later. Same result.He set the phone down and stared at the fire. He told himself she was busy. She was at work. She was with her friend. She needed time to process what she had seen. He understood. He would give her space.But the silence was loud.The second day, the weather turned cold.Rain swept across the city in sheets, drumming against the windows of his mansion, blurring the world beyond the glass. Fenris stood at the window of his study, watching the water streak down the glass like tears. He had not slept. He had not eaten.
