The flames crackled crackled crackled. Still wet from the bath, I sat on the edge of the large wood bed and watched Clara use a brush with a bone handle to comb through the wet tangles in my hair.

She hum hum hm hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum hum. It was a bizarre. Just a few hours before I'd been elbow-deep in the pack's financial calamity, drenched in mud, shouting ideas to a room full of doubtful faces. Someone was brushing my hair like I was a princess as I was dressed in silk. "Y

    "Pull the route logs as well. All three seasons. I want them checked against the delivery records."He blinked."That's... a fair amount of cross-referencing.""I know." I was already turning to the first page. "Bring the maps too."The afternoon disappeared into it. I laid the documents out across two tables and pieced together a picture from them—tracing routes, flagging inconsistencies, hunting down the pattern behind the losses, which turned out not to be losses at all. It was mislabeling, all of it stemming from a single waystation where two routes crossed and the clerks had been logging the same shipments twice under different destination codes.Simple enough, once the whole shape of it came into view."That's..." Pell stared at the corrected summary I set in front of him. "That's three seasons of disputes, solved. The guild's been fighting about this since autumn.""Have the waystation standardize its codes," I said. "The overlap is the root of it. Fix that, and the numbers wil

    Sleep never came.I lay flat on my back, eyes fixed on the ceiling, listening to the palace shift and settle around me—all that old stone easing into the night—while my mind kept circling back to the gouged letters on my door, and to Kattie's smile, and to the way she'd walked off as though she'd already claimed some kind of victory.By the time the first grey light began seeping under the curtains, I'd made up my mind.I wasn't going to act like I hadn't seen it.I found her in the eastern corridor, near the entrance to the garden—which I doubted was an accident. Kattie moved through this palace like she'd memorized every hallway, every shortcut, every spot where a "chance" encounter could pass for coincidence.She looked lovely, dressed in pale gold that morning, hair swept up and fastened with small jeweled pins—every bit the noble Lycan lady she wanted the world to see.She spotted me approaching and her expression rearranged itself instantly into something soft and startled."Bel

    Dinner was formal in the way that mattered — not just in setting, but in weight.Thor sat at the head of the long table, broad and unhurried, his presence doing what it always did — bending the room around him like gravity bends light. He caught my eye the moment I entered and something in his expression shifted. Barely. Just enough to matter.I took my usual place to his right. I had noticed, over recent evenings, exactly which faces tightened at that small, unremarkable fact.Tonight eight elders were present — visiting council members from two outer territories, and Klaus, seated at the far end of the table looking like a man quietly reckoning with a string of poor decisions he hadn't yet finished processing. He kept his eyes largely away from mine.The elders, however, had no such restraint.Not all of them. Two — a silver-haired man named Elder Soren and the woman beside him whose name I still hadn't learned — watched me with open, deliberate calculation. Not cruelty, exactly. So

    The morning began too quietly. That should have been my first warning.The dining table stretched long and gleaming beneath chandelier light, silver platters catching the early gold streaming through tall windows. Thor had slipped out before dawn for council meetings, pressing his lips to my forehead with hands that still carried the warmth of sleep and pine. I'd smiled against his palm and let myself drift back to rest for another hour, wrapped in something I hadn't felt in a very long time — peace.I should have known peace was never something I got to keep."Excuse me." I raised my hand toward the nearest servant, a young woman with neat braided hair making quiet rounds with a pitcher. "Could I have some chamomile tea, please? If there is any."She looked directly at me. A full second of eye contact.Then she turned and walked the other way.I lowered my hand slowly. Under the table, where no one could see, my fingers curled into my palm. I told myself it meant nothing. She hadn't

    I stood on the dais, my spine straight as a blade, my Lycan senses fanning out to press against every corner of the cavernous hall.Beneath my skin, my wolf coiled like a loaded spring, primed to lash out at the smallest provocation. Below me, the council sat in a tight, uneasy half-circle, their gazes flicking between the vacant throne and the woman standing alone on the floor.Kattie.She'd chosen a gown the color of dried blood, her chin tilted upward in a practiced show of defiance. But I could smell what she was trying to hide — the sharp, sour reek of fear leaking from her skin, tangled with the sickly-sweet perfume she'd doused herself in. Together they turned my stomach."Your Majesty." Kattie's voice cracked through the room, high and brittle. "These accusations have no foundation. The maid is dead. The kitchen boy has vanished. There's no one left alive to testify against me!"I said nothing at first. I let the quiet stretch out, let the full weight of my stare bear down on

  • The Lycan King's Silver Mate   RONAN POV

    RONAN POVI adjusted the cuffs of my coat before stepping through the palace gates.Every movement was deliberate.Controlled.The polished leather of my boots struck the stone beneath me as I walked, each measured step carrying me deeper into the heart of the King's territory. Around me, guards stood rigidly at attention, their hands resting near their weapons as they watched my approach.I gave them nothing to read.No hesitation.No suspicion.No sign that I was anything other than what I appeared to be—a visiting Alpha answering the summons of his King.The captain stepped forward and bowed.“Your Majesty.”I continued walking.I almost smiled.He wasn't addressing me as King.Not yet.But men had a habit of changing the way they bowed once power changed hands.And one day, they would bow to me.The moment I crossed the threshold, I felt the uneasiness hanging over the palace.It was everywhere.In the hurried footsteps of servants.In the guards' heightened vigilance.In the nerv

    Bella's POV “My father's pack was wealthy when I came to yours, why would I depend on you??" I snapped at Ronan.My voice trembled with rage I could no longer contain.Surely he was looking for ways to make me stand back and not leave, because there was no reason we would have to depend on him, un

    Bella's POV “Stop believing the voices in your head, Bella. It's not what you think!” My husband snapped.“Not what I think?" I asked, my gaze darting towards the fallen gift box I had returned with." You're supposed to be at the council meeting. Why did you return? It isn't until tomorrow before

    I muttered against his lips, sounding breathier than I wished, "I'm not some fragile egg, you know." "You don't need to be so kind. I'm not easily broken.A slow smile pinched at the corner of the stranger's mouth as he withdrew just enough for me to see his eyes darken with astonishment and someth

    Bella's POV I forced my legs up the stairs of the council house. It was the only place I could think of coming to, in order to unwind. In order to breathe without feeling like my chest was collapsing in on itself.I collided into someone, almost losing my balance, but a hand brushed over my back i
