The Omega's Crown The Morning
Selene's POVThe pendant was on the side table.It was there because he had taken it off me during the night, when the chain had come off the broken clasp and the silver disc had landed on the pillow above my hair. He had picked it up. He had set it down. He had come back to me with both his hands free for what came next.I had been awake for the count of three when I remembered the pendant.I had been awake for the count of seven when I remembered the man.He was beside me.His arm was around my shoulders. His hand was at the side of my throat where the pendant had been. His breath was in my hair. He had been awake for longer than I had.I knew this because the breathing in his chest under my ear was the breathing of a man choosing not to move."Kael.""Yup?""You are awake?""Yes.""How long?""An hour.""You did not move.""No.""Why?""Because you were sleeping on my chest and I had been asked, three years ago, to remember what this felt like, and I had not remembered it correctly
The Omega's Crown Healer's Examination
Selene's POVThe healer's hands were cold.He had warned me. He had set out the small cup of warm water beside me on the table. He had taken his rings off. He had washed twice. He had asked me three times whether I was ready.I had said yes three times.Kael was at the window with his back to the room. He had told the healer that if any part of the examination caused me pain, he was to stop immediately. The healer had bowed.Veris set his hand against the inside of my left wrist.He set his other hand on the rejection scar at my collarbone.He closed his eyes.He did not speak for the count of forty.When he opened his eyes, he took his hands off me and stepped back."Sir.""Veris.""I have the analysis.""Tell us both. She is the one in the chair."Veris turned. He came back across the room. He looked at me with the face of a man who had spent forty seconds learning the shape of a thing he had been told existed in books but had not, in thirty-one years of practice, ever read with his
The Omega's Crown Three Weeks
Selene's POVThree keys were on the writing table when I came down for breakfast.They had not been there last night. They had been put there by someone who had walked into my room while I had been asleep, set them on the table, and walked back out.The first key was small and dark. Iron. The kind that opened a study drawer.The second was longer and brass. The kind that opened a library cabinet.The third was the smallest of all. Silver. The kind that opened a strongbox.A folded paper was beside them.I picked the paper up.Selene.All three. Your access. From this morning. The first opens the lower drawer of my desk. The second opens the cabinet at the back of the library where the intelligence files are kept. The third opens the strongbox in the south guard room. The captain has been told. Riven has been told. The healer has been told. Walk into any room. No one will stop you.Yours.Kael.The signature was different than usual. He had signed his other notes with the bare word. Th
The Omega's Crown The Almost
Selene's POVThe paper was on the chest at the foot of my bed before I had opened my eyes.I knew because I had not put it there. I had put my own paper there last night with one line on it, in the dark, and I had set the pendant beside it, and I had gone to sleep on top of the blanket with the wool over my shoulders and a wolf in my chest who had been awake for the first time in twenty-one years and was settling.The paper had two lines now.The first was mine. Your wolf called me his.The second was his. In his hand. Three words written in the dark in the steady careful script of a man who did not waste ink.Mine. Always was.I read it.I read it sitting up in the bed in the gold morning light, with the pendant in my right hand and the paper in my left, and the small ancient thing at the base of my ribs lifted her head from her paws and looked at the words on the paper through me.She did not speak.She did not need to.She let me have the reading.I did not see him that morning.I
The Omega's Crown Silver Shift
Selene's POV"Come, Luna. The moon is up."The cook was at the foot of the tower stairs.She had a lantern. She had a wool shawl over her shoulders. She had not been there a minute ago.She did not look at the pendant. I knew that the way I had been learning to know things about her was by what she did not do. She did not look at the pendant because she could not yet look at it. She would look at it, I thought, after."...Cook.""...Lirien."The name again.She had said it three times today. I let her have it. I did not press her on it. I had decided in the corridor four hours ago that I would not press her on the name until the name pressed back. I would let the name come.I let it come."Where am I going?""The high parapet above the south wall. The one with the iron bench. You will know it when you see it. The pack is in the woods below. They will not look up. The King is in the courtyard. He will.""You knew I was coming up here.""I knew you were coming up here before you knew yo
The Omega's Crown Full Moon
Selene's POV"You should not be out of bed at this hour, child."The cook was at the end of the corridor.I had stopped at the window halfway down the hall because the moon was not quite full yet, and the moon was the thing the small animal at the base of my ribs had been trying to tell me about for the last six hours, and I had wanted, very much, to look at it.I had not heard her on the stones.She was three steps behind me. She had a basket of bread on her hip. She had a candle in her left hand, unlit. She had been on her way somewhere. She had stopped because she had seen me at the window.I turned."Cook.""Lirien."The name came out before she stopped it.I did not move.She did not move.The window above us caught the not-quite-full moon and the silver of it fell across the floor between us. We were eight feet apart. She was not looking at me. She was looking at the basket on her hip, at the small spool of grey thread tucked between the rolls, at her own knuckles where they hel
