The heavy bag stops swinging eventually.

I stand in front of it with my hands at my sides, breathing hard, and look at my knuckles. Split on both hands, dried blood cracking at the edges, the particular rawness of skin that has been asked to do more than it wanted to. I unwrap the training cloth slowly, finger by finger, and drop it on the bench.

I check my phone.

Leo: Don't worry about me. I know what I'm doing. Trust me.

That's still the last message. Sent however long ago, sitting there like

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 154: The Burden of the Dead (Kira POV)

    Imara’s hands dropped from her face, her fingers trembling as she looked at me with a mixture of awe and absolute terror. She leaned forward in the tattered armchair, the sallow skin of her face pulling tight over her cheekbones."Leo’s sister?" she whispered, her voice cracking. "He spoke of you every single night we were in the trenches together. He told me you were the one who needed saving. He told me he had to burn the world down just to make sure you weren't consumed by it.""He was trying to protect me," I said, my voice thick. "But he didn't tell me why. He didn't tell me what he was really doing."Imara let out a wet, jagged laugh that turned into a cough. She looked past me at Dante, her eyes widening as she took in his height, the breadth of his shoulders, and the way he stood with a relaxed, lethal grace that was impossible to fake."How did you do it?" she asked

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 153: The Safehouse (Kira POV)

    The air outside the warehouse was bitingly cold, smelling of ozone and the damp, decaying concrete of the Ruins. It was the first time we had stepped into the open air since we arrived, and the sudden vastness of the sky—even a sky as grey and choked as this one—felt overwhelming."Move it," Reyes called out, tossing a set of keys to Dante. "I’m in the lead car. Stay close. If we get pulled over, let me do the talking. A detective with a car full of 'consultants' is easier to explain than a rogue pack on the run."Sage was frantically shoving cables and external drives into her backpack, her eyes darting around the warehouse one last time to ensure no digital footprint remained. Cassidy was more surgical, breaking down her rifle with practiced ease and sliding the components into a nondescript guitar case."Kira, get in," Dante said, gesturing toward the sleek, dark sedan Reyes had procure

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 152: The Librarian’s Shadow (Kira POV)

    The silence that followed my confession was different from the heavy, suffocating tension of the minutes before. It was a hollow silence, the kind that exists in the wake of a landslide. Reyes didn't recoil. He didn't reach for his service weapon or look around the warehouse for hidden cameras as if searching for a prank. Instead, he simply exhaled, a long, slow whistle of air that seemed to carry the weight of twenty years of doubt. He stood there, the flickering blue light of the workstation casting long, distorted shadows behind him, and for the first time, the detective looked like he was actually seeing the world as it was.He looked at me, then at Dante, then back at me. There was no shock in his eyes, only a grim, weary sort of validation. It was the look of a man who had finally found the missing piece of a puzzle he’d been forced to ignore for half his career. Every unexplained disappearance, every victim with wounds that defied medi

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 151: The Silver Disclosure  (Kira POV)

    The transition from the deep, velvet darkness of our corner to the harsh reality of the warehouse floor was as jarring as a plunge into ice water. The indigo light of pre-dawn had just begun to touch the rafters, and the weight of Dante’s arm across me was the only thing keeping the encroaching dread at bay. We were on the precipice of sleep, that thin, hazy border where the mind finally lets go of the hunt, when the heavy groan of the side entrance door echoed through the cavernous space.The sound was like a gunshot.Dante was up in a heartbeat, his instincts overriding the exhaustion of the night. He didn't just wake; he lunged, his body a coiled spring of muscle and protective fury. I scrambled after him, pulling my tactical jacket over my shoulders, my fingers fumbling with the zipper as the adrenaline surged, hot and bitter, through my veins.In the center of the warehouse, Sage and Cassidy were already on their feet. Sage had her laptop clutch

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 150: The Choice of Shadows (Kira POV)

    The warmth of Dante’s hand over mine was the only thing anchoring me to the present, a stark contrast to the cold, rain-slicked glass of the warehouse window. The stillness we had found was fragile, a thin membrane separating us from the violence Silas had promised. I could feel the rhythmic pulse of Dante’s heart through his palm, steady and resolute, even as the world outside prepared to burn.I pulled my gaze away from the skeletal remains of the Ruins and turned to face him fully. In the dim, blue-tinted gloom of the warehouse, his features were a map of shadows and sharp edges. He looked like the Alpha he was born to be, but in his eyes, I saw only the man who had just admitted he wanted to be better."Dante," I said, my voice barely a whisper, yet it felt loud in the heavy silence. "If it comes to it... if the summit is falling and the ritual is starting, and you have to make a choice, what will you choose? me

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 149: The Weight of Stillness (Kira POV)

    The silence that followed the call wasn't peaceful; it was a vacuum, sucking the air out of the warehouse. I watched Sage, her face bathed in the harsh, flickering glow of the monitors. Her fingers remained poised over the keys, frozen in the middle of a command that would never finish. The pulsating red dot on the screen had vanished, replaced by a dull, gray "Signal Lost" notification that felt like a mockery of all the effort she had poured into the breach."No," Sage whispered, her voice cracking. She hit a key with enough force to make the plastic clatter, then another, her breath coming in short, jagged hitches. "No, no, no. He cut it. He timed it to the millisecond. I was there. I was inside the routing table, I was jumping the nodes, and he just... he vanished."She slumped back in her chair, her hands falling into her lap. Frustration didn't just creep in; it flooded the room, thick and suffocating. Sage had been our d

    I wake up and lie still for a moment, running through everything the way I've started doing, a quiet inventory of active problems ordered by urgency.The betrothal sits at the top of the list before I've fully decided to put it there. The kind of thing that doesn't soften ove

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 68: After (Dante POV)

    Councilman from the Nightbreeze senior delegation has a handshake that lasts slightly too long and a laugh that requires reciprocation, and I reciprocate it with the precision of someone who has been trained since childhood to perform warmth on demand regardless of internal conditio

    Dominic's voice carries without effort.That's the first thing you notice about him when he speaks formally, that he never raises it, never performs projection the way people do when they're compensating for something. The room simply quiets around him and his voice fills it
