The Omega's Crown Special Chapter 3: Night of the Massacre
Lirien Ashvale's POVTwenty-one years ago. The night of the Ashvale massacre.Cedric appeared in the nursery doorway.I was sitting in the rocking chair with the baby. She had eaten an hour before. She was asleep against my shoulder, in the specific weight a six-month-old made when she had fallen asleep on you and intended to stay asleep, which was the weight of a small animal who had decided you were the warmest place in the room.I looked up.Cedric was white-faced.He did not speak first.He said: "Lirien. Now. We have to move."I stood up.I did not ask. We had been waiting for the possibility of this night for fourteen months — since the eastern courier had brought the first warning, since Seraphine Cole had stopped attending the inter-pack sessions she had attended for fifteen years, since the small careful disappearances had begun in the line that ran behind the line. We had a plan. Cedric had a plan. Kade had a plan that Cedric had reviewed three times.I knew the plan.I went
The Omega's Crown Special Chapter 2: Wolf's Memory
Selene's Wolf — POVOlder than human language. Listen slowly.I have had many.Listen. I will tell it slowly. I have had three hundred years to learn how to tell things slowly, and I have learned that the slow way is the only way the listener carries what I say. The fast way is for messengers. I am not a messenger. I am the one the messages have been about.I was Elara first.Three hundred years ago. The first Ashvale. The woman who walked out of the eastern forest with the founding alpha and built the founding line. She was twenty-four when I came to her — I had come from another body, before her, but Elara is the first I count, because Elara was the first who knew. She had felt me at the base of her ribs the way I have been felt by every woman in the line since. She had said to me, in the small dark voice a woman uses when she is alone with a thing she cannot name: who are you. I had said: I am yours. She had said: that is enough.It had been enough.For her.She had died at thirty-
The Omega's Crown Special Chapter 1: Glass of Water
Kael's POVSet during Chapter 10 — the night of Selene's nightmare.I was half-asleep when he stirred.He had been silent for three years.Not absent — present in the way of a wolf who had been there continuously and was, for reasons of his own, not speaking. The kind of silence that was its own statement. I had stopped expecting to hear from him in the second year. By the third I had stopped checking.He stirred at the third hour.She is afraid.I lay still in the dark."What."She is afraid. Go to her."Why."Because you should.I lay still for the count of five.I had not heard him speak in three years. I had not been certain, in those three years, that he was still there. The hex on me had been working — I had not known it was a hex, then, but I had known what the absence felt like, the slow thinning of presence, the way the world had gone quieter around me, the way the brandy had stopped working and the sleep had stopped working and the fire had stopped warming. I had thought it
The Omega's Crown Epilogue
Selene's POVSix years later we brought Elara home.I walked through the Keep in the mornings.Not every morning — most mornings I was at the writing table at the seventh hour with the Council correspondence and the lemon on the saucer and Kael at the other end of the desk. But some mornings I walked. The specific walk of a woman who knew the building she was in and had decided to be present in it.I walked past the east wing kitchen first.My mother was there.She was teaching Elara the bread recipe.I stopped at the door.I had spent six years building toward this morning, and I had not, on any of the previous six years' worth of mornings, known the morning was coming. The morning had arrived the way good things arrived, which was without ceremony — Elara had asked, three days ago, at breakfast, in the quiet specific voice she had used since she had arrived at twelve, the voice of a girl who was always asking carefully because she had spent the first eleven years of her life not bei
The Omega's Crown Was It Worth It
Selene's POVThe wolf and I have a conversation sometimes.Not the quick exchanges — the one-word certainties and the wag and the there she is and the home. A real conversation. The kind that requires sitting down.We have them late at night, when the building is quiet and the bond is at its resting frequency and I'm at the window watching the pine line. They have been happening since the second year of the marriage. Sometimes once a month. Sometimes twice a week. Never on a schedule. They come when she has something to say, or when I do, and the other one is ready to listen.The conversations have a quality the day-to-day exchanges do not. The day-to-day exchanges are the running of the bond — the small constant communication of two animals sharing one body, the wag at the breakfast table, the home when Kael takes my hand, the pressing forward when I walk into a room that needs me. The conversations are different. They are what happens when she sets the work down for an hour and we l
The Omega's Crown After Breakfast
Selene's POVThe next morning I brought the letter to Kael's study at the seventh hour.I had not slept. I had spent most of the night at the writing table in the Luna chambers with the letter in front of me, reading it three more times, the way you read a thing when you have already decided what to do about it but are giving yourself the time to be sure. The girl's name was in the third sentence. The silver eyes were in the fourth. The phrase that had stopped me — we believe she may be of your line — was in the fifth.I had been ready to go since the fifth.The hours between then and the seventh had been spent watching the morning arrive — the sky turning grey, then rose, then gold, the building beginning to wake around me, the kitchen stirring, the guards changing. I had heard Kael leave the bed at the fifth hour. I had not asked where he was going. I had known.He was in his study with the maps already out.I stopped in the doorway.He looked up."You've been awake since the fifth

The Omega's Crown Planted
Selene's POVThe Council had sent us copies of the Archive.Not all of it. The original founders' records had stayed in Vael Doran, because the Archive was a Council holding and could not be moved. But the operational notes, the personal files, the correspondence, the materials that were not part o
