Caz

The child's laughter doesn't come again. The silence afterward somehow feels worse. It leaves me wondering if I imagined it.

But the possibility disappears the moment Sinister growls. "I heard it too. I don't like children hiding beneath buildings. It's fucking creepy."

"I don't think anyone does."

I glance around the library again.

Dust hangs in thin shafts of afternoon sunlight spilling through narrow windows. Shelves line every wall, packed with records no one has bothered touc

  • The Twin Prophecy (Sequel to the She Alpha Prophecy)   History Doesn't Always Repeat Itself

    CazThe world drops out from under me without warning.One second, The Void is in front of me.Mist. Blackened ground. Tristan shouting my name.Then nothing.No sound.No air.No up.No down.Just cold.Then I hit stone hard enough to knock the breath from my lungs.For a few seconds, I don't move.Mostly because my body is too busy deciding which part hurts most.Sinister groans beneath my skin."Well...""Don't.""That was dramatic.""I said don't.""Noted."I roll onto my back and stare upward.Stone curves above me in rough black arches, jagged and uneven like the inside of something ancient and dead. The air smells of damp rock, old smoke, and something metallic beneath it.Blood?No.Magic.Old magic.Rotten magic.Fantastic.I sit up slowly.The mark on my wrist burns.Not painfully.Defensively.Like it woke before I did."Where are we?" Sinister asks.I look around.A cavern stretches in every direction, wide enough to swallow the packhouse whole. Thin black roots crawl thro

  • The Twin Prophecy (Sequel to the She Alpha Prophecy)   He Thought He Was Being Sneaky

    EliasSpencer thinks subtlety is overrated.I disagree.Subtlety has kept me alive far longer than dramatic speeches ever would.Which is probably why I notice Cassius trying to disappear before anyone else does.He thinks he's being clever.He's wrong.Not offensively wrong.Just... predictably wrong.It starts after breakfast.The meeting in the dining room drags longer than usual. Jon is discussing messenger routes with Marcus and Nathan. Spencer has somehow managed to turn three maps into seven. Trinity is helping Grandma Shirley organize the newest records while Cassidy quietly sketches symbols that appeared in another dream.Everyone is occupied.Everyone except Cassius.He slips away without saying a word.Not suspiciously.Naturally.Like someone going to stretch his legs.Except he never stretches his legs.He wanders toward mysteries.Always.I wait exactly thirty seconds before standing.Spencer glances at me over the top of a map."Where are you going?""Walking."His eyeb

  • The Twin Prophecy (Sequel to the She Alpha Prophecy)   Maybe The Witch is an Ali

    Jon Cassius has inherited many things from Cassidy. Her curiosity. Her stubbornness. Her inability to leave a mystery alone once it has lodged itself inside her mind. Unfortunately... He also inherited the expression she wears when she has already made up her mind. I've learned to recognize it. Mostly because arguing with it rarely accomplishes anything. The knock on my office door comes just after sunrise. Three quick taps. Not hesitant. Not urgent. Intentional. "Come in." The door opens, and Caz steps inside carrying two mugs of coffee. He offers one to me. That alone tells me this isn't a casual visit. "You bribed me." "I brought caffeine." "That's bribery." "It usually works." I accept the mug anyway. He sits across from me without speaking. Neither of us rushes the silence. We've reached the point where silence doesn't need filling. Eventually... "I dreamed." Of course you did. "I assumed." His eyebrow rises. "You assumed?" "The relic pulsed half t

  • The Twin Prophecy (Sequel to the She Alpha Prophecy)   It is Time We Actually Meet

    CazSleep has become suspicious.I used to like sleep.Sleep was simple.Necessary.Mostly peaceful.Now?Now sleep comes with memories that are not mine, witches who speak in riddles, dead wolves who refuse to stay in the past, and magical bullshit that apparently considers my subconscious public property.Sinister hums beneath my skin."You say that like you don't enjoy the drama.""I enjoy answers.""Same thing lately.""Unfortunately."The meeting hall finally empties close to midnight. Alphas retreat to guest rooms. Messengers collapse wherever Momma T allows them to collapse, which turns out to be almost anywhere that isn't her kitchen. Tristan stays behind longer than he needs to, talking quietly with Jon about patrol rotations and outgoing messages.He looks like he belongs there.I don't tell him that.He'd get emotional.Or worse.Smug.Trinity catches me watching him and smiles knowingly."Don't.""I didn't say anything.""You were thinking something sentimental.""Rude acc

  • The Twin Prophecy (Sequel to the She Alpha Prophecy)   Something Fundamental Has Shifted

    JonSome conversations change history.Others...Change the people trying to write it.Caz doesn't say a word during the walk back to Wolvesbane.Not one.Normally that would worry me.Cassius thinks out loud. He questions everything. He argues with himself almost as often as he argues with Sinister.Silence isn't natural for him.Today...It isn't empty.It's full.I recognize the look because I've worn it myself.Something fundamental shifted.The elder witch gave him an answer he wasn't expecting.Not a complete one.She never gives complete answers.But enough.Enough to change the shape of the puzzle.Jezebel notices it too."He hasn't complained once."I glance toward my daughter.Trinity smiles softly."That's how you know it's serious."Even Tristan chuckles."Normally we'd have heard at least three rants about cryptic witches by now."Caz looks over his shoulder."I can still hear you.""We know.""You were supposed to."The familiar banter feels good.Necessary.Because desp

  • The Twin Prophecy (Sequel to the She Alpha Prophecy)   Adjusting

    CazMorning never quite arrives the same way twice anymore.Before all of this...Morning meant coffee.Training.Momma T reminding me breakfast was more important than whatever book I happened to have my nose buried in.Now...Morning means wondering what ancient secret is waiting to ruin my understanding of history before lunch.Sinister yawns."I like the new mornings.""I figured you would.""They're significantly less boring."I roll my eyes as I finish packing Anthony's flute beside the relic. The travel cloth, Emily's stone, and the embroidered strips remain in Wolvesbane. Jon insisted we stop carrying every artifact everywhere we went.He was right.I hate when people are right.Especially when it isn't me.The council dispersed yesterday.Messengers left before sunrise.Alphas returned to their packs carrying new laws, new responsibilities, and enough unanswered questions to keep them awake for the next month.For the first time in centuries...Prophecy wolves were free.The
