The grocery bag is on the kitchenette counter and I've unpacked half of it, bread and water and two apples and a box of crackers, and I'm standing with a jar of peanut butter in my hand looking at the brick wall through the window when my phone buzzes with a number I don't recognize.

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 122: The Message (Kira POV)

    The grocery bag is on the kitchenette counter and I've unpacked half of it, bread and water and two apples and a box of crackers, and I'm standing with a jar of peanut butter in my hand looking at the brick wall through the window when my phone buzzes with a number I don't recognize.I answer it anyway."It's me." Sage's voice, lower than usual, like she's talking into her collar. "I'm on a compound landline in the archive basement, it doesn't route through the main system. Don't say my name if anyone is near you."I look around the empty hotel room. "I'm alone.""Okay." A pause, and I hear her breathing, and something in the quality of that pause makes me set the peanut butter down on the counter. "Dante went to see Dominic.""I know. That was the plan.""The conversation didn't go the way we planned." Another pause. "Dominic activated the execution order, Kira. Full activation, no delays, Cassidy is being briefed right now an

    She reads me the address after a silence long enough that I count my own heartbeats waiting for it, and I say it back once to confirm and she says yes and I step out into the corridor and pull the hotel room door closed behind me.My phone buzzes before I reach the elevator.A text from the same landline number: Randy Peterson first. Not Elias. Call me when you're outside.I press the elevator button and call her back.She picks up before the first ring finishes. "Elias is too dangerous to approach alone.""We already established I'm doing this alone.""Kira, Elias shot Leo in an alley and walked away and has been building a network for twenty years and has compound security intelligence." She is talking fast, faster than usual, and I can hear her moving, a door, footsteps. "Randy Peterson is a delivery driver who has been running a route for eight years and may or may not have known what he was part of. If he didn't know, he's

    "Sit down or leave," he says."Neither," I say.He sets the pen down and looks at me across the desk and the room is very quiet, just the training ground outside and the compound running in the corridor beyond the closed door, and we look at each other for a moment that goes on longer than either of us planned."You are making a decision right now," he says, "that you will not be able to unmake.""I know that.""You are choosing a rogue wolf over the authority of this pack and your position within it, and you are doing it because a bond you did not choose and cannot control has overridden seventeen years of training." He comes around the desk, not quickly, just moves around it until he is standing in the open space between the desk and the window, and he looks at me from there. "That is not strength, Dante.""The bond didn't choose her. I did.""You believe that.""Yes.""Then you are less prepared for this

    Cassidy calls again while I'm finishing my coffee and I turn the phone face down on the table and drink the rest of it.Sage looks at the phone and then at me. "That's eleven.""I know.""Dante.""I know, Sage." I put the cup down and look at Kira across the table. She has eaten most of what she ordered and is pushing the last of it around her plate without looking at it, her fork moving in slow circles, and she hasn't said anything in about ten minutes, just sat with both hands around her mug between bites, watching the table.The phone goes dark and then lights up again immediately.I pick it up and silence it and put it back down. "We need to go back."Kira looks up."The compound," I say. "The contractor vetting gap, the Silas hunt, the essence surge report, Cassidy needs all of it before Dominic calls her in and she's defending a position without the full picture." I look at Kira. "And you can't come back wit

    Dante's phone goes off four steps out of the alley, buzzing in his jacket pocket, and he pulls it out and looks at the screen and keeps walking."Cassidy," he says."How many times," Sage says.He turns the phone over in his hand. "This is the seventh.""Since when.""Since we left the compound." He puts it back in his pocket without answering it and it stops buzzing and then, after about fifteen seconds, starts again.Sage looks at him sideways. "Dante.""I know.""The compound security gap has been active for weeks and Cassidy doesn't know about it yet and Dominic is conscious and running a hunt and there are two wolves on the next block who just felt something they are going to report and Cassidy is on her seventh call.""I know all of that, Sage.""So the part where you keep not answering."He pulls the phone out again, looks at it buzzing in his palm, and then answers it and puts it to hi

    "He checked that I got it before he did anything else," I say again, because saying it the second time makes it no smaller and I need to know if it ever will.Sage's hand is still on my knee and Dante's arm is still around me and neither of them says anything, and after a moment I pull back from Dante's jacket and sit up straight and wipe my face with both hands and look at the alley entrance."I need to tell you something," I say.Dante waits. Sage waits."Leo came to the compound." I keep looking at the alley entrance. "Weeks ago. He was posing as a delivery assistant, medical supplies to the infirmary wing, and I saw him in the service corridor. I grabbed him and pulled him into an alcove and told him he was wrong about everything and he walked away when his driver called him." I stop. "I didn't tell either of you."The silence is different after that. Not longer, just different in texture, and I feel Dante's arm go very still arou

    Kira stops me at the door of Sage's quarters before I go.She doesn't say anything elaborate. She just puts her hand flat against my chest for a moment, over the sternum, where the bond sits, and looks at me with the specific quality of someone transmitting something they can

    She walks toward us.Cassidy steps aside without comment and continues down the corridor, and Selene stops in the doorway where Cassidy just stood, and she looks at Dante with an expression that contains several things simultaneously, none of them the anger or the humiliation

    My legs are shaking.Not visibly, I don't think. The composure is holding on the outside because it has been holding on the outside since I was six years old and it's not going to fail me in a room with sixty wolves watching. But underneath the straight posture and the level

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 89: Declaration (Dante POV)

    My heart is doing something irregular as I walk down the corridor from Kira's room.Not fear exactly. The physiological presentation of fear without the cognitive component, the elevated pulse and the specific alertness of someone whose body has registered that something irre
