The Space Between Full Moons The Real Informant
Chapter FiftyElena read the message twice, the words settling like ice water through her veins. She turned the phone toward Rowan without a word, watching his expression shift from exhaustion to fresh, sharpened alarm as he processed what it meant."They're saying Sofia was a decoy," he said slowly. "That there's someone else, still inside our circle, that they consider more valuable.""Someone we haven't even suspected," Elena said, the implication settling over her with cold clarity. "Someone close enough to matter, but careful enough that nothing's raised any flags yet."Desmond's face had gone pale, his arm still wrapped protectively around Sofia despite the fresh horror of this new revelation. "Could it be Mara? Elias? Someone else we already know about?""Doesn't fit," Rowan said, shaking his head slowly. "If it were someone we'd already identified, exposing them wouldn't be useful leverage anymore. They're talking about someone still hidden. Someone we trust completely, with n
The Space Between Full Moons Not Asking Permission
Chapter Forty-NineElena's body went rigid, every instinct screaming at her to run, though her feet remained rooted in place, some part of her brain still frantically calculating options that didn't exist. The man's hand emerged from his jacket, not with a weapon as she'd feared, but with a small radio device, which he raised to his mouth without breaking eye contact."Bring in the second team," he said calmly. "Ms. Voss has declined our generous offer."Elena's mind raced, understanding dawning with cold, sickening clarity. This had never been a negotiation. It had been a stall, a way to keep her occupied and isolated while whatever else the Accord had planned moved into position."Rowan," she breathed, praying the earpiece was still transmitting, praying he could hear her. "They're bringing in reinforcements. Now."The warehouse's side door burst open before she'd finished speaking, and for one terrifying moment, Elena believed the Accord's second team had already arrived. Instead,
The Space Between Full Moons What She Really Understood
Chapter Forty-EightElena's pulse hammered as she stepped into the warehouse's dim interior, the man leading her past stacked crates and idle machinery toward a lit area near the back of the building. Her mind raced through everything Renata had briefed her on, every contingency they'd tried to plan for, none of which had accounted for the strange, unsettling calm radiating from her guide.They rounded a final row of shelving, and Elena's breath caught.Sofia sat in a chair near the center of the cleared space, unbound, a cup of what looked like hot chocolate resting untouched on a small table beside her. She looked frightened, certainly, but not the way Elena had expected — not the broken terror of someone held captive for hours, but something closer to confused, wary uncertainty."Sofia?" Elena said carefully, taking a slow step forward. "I'm a friend of your brother's. I'm here to help you."Sofia's eyes flicked between Elena and the man standing nearby, something calculating behin
The Space Between Full Moons Being Watched Back
Chapter Forty-SevenElena's hands shook as she showed the message to Rowan, the words landing like a physical blow against whatever fragile advantage they'd thought they had. "They know we're here. Right now, this exact moment."Rowan's eyes scanned the street immediately, searching for any sign of surveillance, any watcher who might have tracked them from the moment they'd arrived. "How? We were careful. We parked blocks away, kept our distance.""They might have anticipated this location before we even arrived," Renata said grimly, her own eyes sweeping the surrounding buildings with renewed urgency. "If Desmond's contact point was compromised the moment he mentioned it, they could have simply waited for us to show up rather than needing to actively track our movements.""You think they set a trap," Jonah said, his voice tight."I think it's possible, and we need to act like it's likely." Renata's jaw tightened. "Everyone, stay alert. Don't scatter, don't panic, but be ready to move
The Space Between Full Moons Second Wind
Chapter Forty-SixThe drive to Portland felt different from the journey to Cedarholt, though the exhaustion pressing on everyone in the vehicle was, if anything, heavier now, layered on top of a day that had already demanded more than any of them had reserves left to give. Elena sat beside Rowan again, watching the dark highway unfurl ahead of them, while in the back seat, Desmond stared out the window with the fixed, hollow expression of a man trying not to imagine the worst."Tell me about her," Elena said gently, turning to look at him. "Sofia. What's she like?"Desmond blinked, seeming to surface slowly from wherever his thoughts had taken him. "She's sharp. Sharper than me, honestly. Wants to be a marine biologist, talks about it constantly, has since she was maybe eight years old. Our aunt says she's already looking at colleges, even though she's only a sophomore." A ghost of a smile crossed his exhausted face. "She used to visit me during summers, before I made her stop coming
The Space Between Full Moons His Little Sister
Chapter Forty-FiveElena's hands shook as she showed the message to Rowan, the photograph of Desmond taken from somewhere in the very woods they'd just crossed, proof that the Accord's surveillance reached far closer than any of them had realized."Stop," Rowan called out, halting the group before they reached the lodge's front door. "Desmond. We need to talk. Right now."Desmond turned, his expression immediately wary at the sharpness in Rowan's tone. "What's wrong?"Elena held out her phone, watching his face carefully as he read the message. The color drained from his skin entirely, his composure cracking in an instant, all pretense of calm collapsing under the weight of what he was seeing."They have Sofia," he said, his voice barely above a whisper."Who's Sofia?" Callum asked, though something in his tone suggested he'd already guessed the answer."My sister. Sixteen years old. She's been living with our aunt in Portland, away from all of this, away from the pack entirely, becau
