Alaric

The door slammed open before I could forget the field.

Boots hit the floor hard. The smell hit me, iron and smoke and the copper of fresh blood. I pushed the door with my shoulder and let myself into the room because standing in the corridor with the fight still beating through my ribs felt like madness.

They had thrown a spare cloak over me. It did nothing. Blood soaked through the cloth where the blade had split my side. The silver in the wound burned slowly, a crawling heat under the skin. Every breath made the cut protest.

Celine sat by the bed. Threadbare shirt. Shawl at her knees. She looked up, saw me, and did not move. Her eyes were flat. That look, hard, expectant…made something in me tighten.

“Get away from the bed,” I said. My voice came out raw. I meant it sharp.

She didn’t stand. She tightened her fingers around a cloth in her lap and said, “You’re covered in blood.”

I should have barked orders, sent her away. I had rules. I kept people in place. A breeder’s place

  • The Ruthless Alpha’s Breeder   Chapter 64

    AlaricThey crowded the chamber like flies around honey — slow, curious, smelling for weakness. I watched them file in, robes hush against stone, eyes already measuring what they wanted to take. A council of men and women who thought they kept the pack safe by policing fear.I did not sit. Standing gave my spine a backbone they could not tip with gossip. The room smelled of old smoke and old promises. The hearth was banked low, the light thin. I let them talk first. Let them get their courage warmed before I took it from them.“Alpha,” the oldest elder began, his voice like dry wood. “We have heard troubling news. The prisoner you keep — the breeder — she is not as she seemed.”They told it like a rumor at first, the way people tell stories to feel clever. Then the words sharpened.“The rogue put it under his breath before they hauled him away,” the higher rank said. “He said she looks like the Luna of the North. He said her blood is of an Alpha line.”They watched me while they said

    AlaricA guard shoved into the hall, breath too loud, eyes darting like prey. I let my ally finish his sentence...his polite words drowned by the man’s voice...and stood.“Alpha,” the guard said. “The breeder came in from the woods. She’s bleeding.”I did not say anything...I stood and walked without ceremony, dread fell on me like cold water..."Alpha, we are done, where are you going?" The Alpha who I had been in a meeting with yelled as my feet hit the hard floor. The corridor smelled of rain on stone and the sweat of men who had been standing too long in armor. I kept my shoulders square and my steps measured.At the door I asked, “Where is she?”“In your room,” another man answered. He spoke quickly, the way men do when they think they have a right to be useful.I pushed the door open. Light cut the room in a thin line. There she was. Celine sat at the edge of the bed. One sleeve was rolled; her hand was wrapped in a bloody rag. She tied it with the stubbornness of someone who wou

    CelineWe ran in wolf form. Paws dug into the loam. Roots slapped under claws. Wind hit my whiskers and filled my lungs the way it used to when our pack still owned these trees.Nissa was a blur at my shoulder, white flash, gray back, pushing, racing, laughing with her body. For a few breaths the world narrowed to speed and the clean ache of muscle. No rooms. No guards. No names that stuck like ash.“You still have plans to escape?” Nissa asked, breath cutting between words even in wolf-speak.I kept my stride. The hollow opened and the light found damp moss. “I don’t know.”She slowed a hair and turned her head, ears pinning. “You shouldn’t be having a change of plans now. We must leave someday.”I felt the old lists slide through my mind ….routes, the smugglers by the southern road, the woman who owed a favor, the nights we would have to sleep in a ditch. Saying them aloud made them brittle.“I’m just wondering what kind of life we’ll live with Milo out there,” I said. The words wer

    AlaricThey dragged a captured rogue through the main hall with his wrists in iron and his mouth already bloody. The pack house smelled like wet leather and old smoke. I walked ahead of them, then turned so the crowd would see my eyes before they saw him.He lifted his head and grinned through split lips. “Alpha,” he said, spitting pink. “You finally bled.”I nodded to the guard to keep him moving. Chains scraped stone. Boots scuffed. Every sound felt too loud.We reached the center of the floor where the pillars crowded the light. The men formed a half circle. The women stood in doorways and watched. I felt the bond tug, a thin thread in my ribs, and I knew where she was before I looked.Celine stood behind two guards, shawl tight around her shoulders, face steady. She didn’t move. Her eyes did. They slid to the rogue and stayed there like a blade waiting to be used.The rogue blinked and laughed, low and ugly. “Well, hell,” he said. “Look at that.”I stepped closer to him. “Keep you

    CelineHe moved around me like a man mapping a room he had not yet decided he owned. Small steps. Careful hands. It was absurd and it pulled at something under my ribs.He set a steaming cup on the bedside table and did not hover like a guard. He draped a blanket over my knees like it was nothing and somehow it was everything.“You look like hell,” he said, trying for a scowl and landing on something softer.“Thanks for the observation, Alpha,” I said, lifting the cup with both hands. The tea tasted like bitter medicine. I wrapped my fingers around it anyway, because it steadied me to do something normal.He watched me drink. His jaw worked once. The scar along his side showed when he moved, a pale line I had memorized the night I held him up and hated him for not staying dead.“You do not have to sit there like you own the air,” I muttered.He folded his hands and looked at me, like he wanted to memorize my face piece by piece. “I do not like you looking cold.”“You are getting senti

  • The Ruthless Alpha’s Breeder   Chapter 59

    CelineA few hours ago, the sound came as a crash, men shouting. Jolted Alaric and I awake…Swords against stone. Then boots, heavier than the ones that paced the hall earlier. Chaos, but close—too close.I left the bed without thinking. My wool slipped down my shoulders and I shoved it fast, the way you pull a hood up to hide. The corridor stank of smoke and iron. Guards were running past, faces set, voices clipped.One of them braked and looked at me like I was a thing misplaced. “Their men are at the outer gate—rogues broke through,” he said. “We’re moving to—”He didn’t finish. A shout cut him off and he was gone like a stone through water. “What the hell? Did they invade us because I was wounded yesterday in the battlefield?” Alaric grits out. “And it's dead in the night….” He tries to get up gritting his teeth.I stayed because Cade begged me. He came up the stairs with dust in his hair. "Stay," he said, like a man who had lost his plans.Alaric lay on the cot with blood matting
