“Go help the little mouse,” he said softly, a faint edge of affection in his voice. “I’m going to go talk to Maddox and let him know what’s going on. I don’t want him thinking Zyan did anything wrong.”

Nesha exhaled through her nose, the tension in her shoulders easing just a fraction. “Zyan would never.”

“I know,” Cobb replied immediately. “But packs don’t run on what we know. They run on what people assume.”

That landed with weight. Nesha nodded once, reluctantly agreeing.

“Fine,” she said. T

  • The Weight of Frost   Working on the Badges

    Emerald continued to work on the badges as she listened to Reagan speak. Her hands moving in what seemed to be moving by muscle memory. She barely even looked down at the copper wires she was weaving into the soft leather. Listening to Reagan speak about her brother's words. Zyan's sacrafices for the pack, and then to hear he was hiding the devotion he felt for her out of respect for her. It was a different feeling for her. It actually made her ache with a confusing mix of fear and longing for a true bond."I can't just...I don't know." Emerald whispered. She shook her head and looked down at the badge she was working on. It was the one for Alpha Zyan and she ran her fingers over the copper wires. "I can't just turn my emotions back on. I can't forget the pain and torment I went through. Stephen and Julia really messed with my head." She looked back at Reagan. "The thought of trusting another wolf. Especially one that holds such a high ranking man. And just the thought of holding anot

  • The Weight of Frost   He Fought It

    The walk back to the temporary cabin Emerald’s family was using for the festival was quiet, the frantic energy of the day finally beginning to wind down as the late afternoon sun slowly dipped toward the jagged peaks of the Frost mountains.When they reached the door, Emerald didn't want the silence of an empty room. Uncle Cobb, Aunt Nesha, and her cousins were still out on the festival grounds enjoying the last of the daytime events and preparing for the evening feast, and for the first time, Emerald realized she wanted a friend more than she wanted to hide."Do you want to come in?" Emerald asked softly, pushing the door open.Reagan smiled, a warm, easy expression. "I’d love to."They settled at the small, sturdy wooden table in the cabin's kitchen. Emerald immediately reached for her travel satchel, pulling out a thick strip of brown leather, a spool of fine copper wire, a set of heavy stitching needles, and a few small pots of vibrant paint. The rhythmic, familiar motion of her h

  • The Weight of Frost   You and Julia can go in Peace Now

    The heavy canvas flap of the medical tent fell shut behind them, cutting off the stifling heat and the suffocating sound of Stephen's quiet weeping.Reagan walked beside Emerald for exactly five steps.Then, Emerald broke down.The adrenaline that had carried her through the confrontation completely evaporated, leaving behind a sudden, heavy void. The raw, staggering emotion of having just forgiven her tormentors—of finally severing the toxic tether that had bound her to their cruelty—was simply more than she could bear. Her knees buckled. A ragged, agonizing sob tore from her throat, and she stopped dead in the dirt path, burying her face in her hands as the tears finally spilled over.Reagan was there instantly.The petite Frost host didn't hesitate, closing the distance and pulling Emerald into a fierce, grounding embrace. She wrapped her arms and the edge of her heavy, fur-lined cloak around Emerald’s shaking shoulders, shielding her from the distant noise and prying eyes of the f

  • The Weight of Frost   I Forgive You

    The heavy canvas flap of the isolation tent was pulled back, letting in a sliver of pale afternoon light, but Stephen didn’t look up from the cot. His bloodshot eyes stared blankly, and his hands trembled where they hung between his knees. For three days, he had barely moved from Julia's side, ignoring food and sleep entirely. The only sound in the stifling tent was Julia’s ragged breathing, every rasp sounding weaker than the last."MacGregor." The familiar voice cut through the suffocating silence.Stephen flinched and looked up to see Reagan standing just inside the entrance, her arms crossed tightly over her chest in a rigid, openly hostile posture. But it wasn't the Frost warrior that stole the breath from his lungs; it was Emerald. She stepped quietly into the dim tent, sunlight framing her for a brief moment before the canvas flap settled closed behind her.She didn't speak, simply taking in the agonizing scene before her. She looked at the metal tub packed with melting ice, th

  • The Weight of Frost   The Goddess's Irony

    The walk back to the outer perimeter after Alpha Zyan dismissed them was completely silent.When they finally reached the boundary line, Stephen’s new accommodations were already waiting for him. True to Zyan's orders, a standard-issue canvas cot had been set up fifty yards away from the miserable shack, completely exposed in a freezing patch of pines.Stephen didn't rub his victory in her face. He didn't even look at her. He simply walked right past the shack, sat down on the freezing cot, and turned his back to her.The absolute, visual confirmation of his rejection burned away whatever fragile thread of panic Julia had left, leaving behind only toxic, stubborn rage. She stormed into the cramped shack and slammed the flimsy door so hard the walls shook.But by the second day, the chill deep in Julia's bones had mutated into a violent, unnatural fever. She huddled under the thin wool blankets, her teeth chattering so hard her jaw ached. Dark, spider-webbing veins had begun to creep o

  • The Weight of Frost   If I had it to do Over Again

    The heavy, rhythmic sound of Zyan’s boots fading into the tree line left behind a silence so absolute it felt like a vacuum.For a long, agonizing minute, neither Stephen nor Julia moved.Stephen kept his eyes squeezed shut, letting out a long, ragged breath that materialized as a white cloud in the freezing air. The devastating truth Zyan had just dropped didn't come as a shock. Not really. If Stephen was entirely honest with himself, the signs had been there all along. He just hadn't wanted to admit it.He had seen the way Reagan, the fierce and untouchable Frost Alpha's twin, had been hovering around Emerald, treating her not like a guest, but like family. He had watched from a distance as Emerald walked through the festival grounds, her head held high. She wasn't the trembling, shattered girl he had abandoned. She had gotten to a point where she wasn't afraid of Alphas anymore. She didn't flinch when massive, lethal warriors walked past her.She felt safe. Because she was standing

  • The Weight of Frost   The Beast's Tether

    By the time the sun fully dipped below the horizon, the festival had transformed. The warm glow of the afternoon was replaced by the roaring, electric energy of the night games. Massive stadium lights and roaring fire pits illuminated the sprawling outdoor arena, casting long, dancing shadows acros

  • The Weight of Frost   Side by Side

    The silence in the tent stretched, thick with an unspoken, magnetic pull, until Emerald finally cleared her throat. A soft, pretty blush returned to her cheeks, but the confident spark in her eyes remained."If... if you want the prototypes ready for closing events," she began, carefully gathering

  • The Weight of Frost   He Was

    Stephen stood entirely frozen, staring at the table where Emerald and the Frost Alpha were sitting. His chest heaved with a toxic cocktail of exhaustion, public humiliation, and violent, possessive jealousy.He was just about to drop his plate and storm over there to demand exactly what was going o

    That afternoon, after everyone who could manage to sleep finally had, the massive dining tents transitioned seamlessly from a late breakfast into an early lunch. The atmosphere was loud and relaxed, filled with the comforting smells of roasted meats and fresh bread as the rested festival-goers ming
