Celine

He came in the night the way he always did: quiet, whole rooms rearranging themselves around his shadow. The pack house had the soft, used smell of the day — stew cooling, boots leaned against benches — but when he crossed the floor the air tightened like a fist.

I was sitting on the edge of the bed. My hands were folded because I liked them to look busy and because it kept my fingers from doing the stupid things they sometimes wanted to do when I was near him. I heard his boots stop before I heard his voice. That was how it had been for weeks, the small sound before the world remembered him.

“Celine,” he said. His voice carried exactly the weight he always put on it — low, final, a thing that expected obedience.

He reached for me the way he had since the first time he laid hands on me: claiming, sure. His palm went to my waist like he was checking a border. I felt the old pull under my skin. For a breath I almost let it happen because old rules are hard to break, because the w

  • The Ruthless Alpha’s Breeder   Chapter 67

    AlaricHer question keeps echoing in my skull long after the words leave her mouth. Is our matebond real? The audacity of those old bastards to open their mouths, planting doubts in her head like weeds. I should have ripped their tongues out when I had the chance. Now I’m left staring at Celine, her eyes wide, waiting for me to answer the one thing that should never have been questioned.Rage boils in me, not just at them but at her—for even asking. Doesn’t she feel it? Doesn’t her body betray her every time I touch her? My wolf snarls inside me, demanding I claim her harder, deeper, until she never thinks of asking such a thing again. My fists clench at my sides, the urge to destroy anything between us nearly choking me.“You want the truth?” I say, voice low, rougher than I intend. I step closer, watching her spine stiffen. Her chest rises and falls faster, and I drink in the sight, every inch of her trembling. “Yes. It’s real. Whether you like it or not, you’re mine. For life. You’

    CelineI aimlessly walked through the pack house, I had started to enjoy the air on Northridge Pack. I was near the pack hall when voices floated down the stone, low and careful. They were the kind of voices that thought they could hide from people who were not supposed to hear. I slowed at the sound of my name, not really my name but the word "Breeder". My heart did the small, traitorous hop of someone who was about to learn they were the subject of someone else’s plans.“The warriors on the battlefield that day testified that she had a towering form for an omega wolf, it was more of an Alpha size and her strength was beyond normal?” the advisor said. His tone was even, like a man folding a shirt.“She moves like them,” another voice said. “Not exactly, but one thing we greatly ignored was the colour I hear hair—the red hair. The one notable thing from that bloodline was their shiny red hair and that's exactly what she has.”My stomach turned cold. I kept my fingers in my skirts beca

    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
