Darius’s POV

Tonight would be the burial of my brother’s reign as Alpha, the private chamber of the Alpha’s den was filled to the teeth with different Elders and their behavior made it look like we had indeed gathered for a funeral.

Elder Bragg sat at the other end of the long table, his hands were held together like a priest who was about to give his best sermon yet. His wife had come to this meeting with him, perched at his side; she was overdressed as always and her sharp eyes darted from one elder to another, almost daring one to point out that she wasn’t even an Elder in council.

The remaining elders, Veyla, Harold, Draith and others sat on either side whispering between themselves as if they were afraid that the walls could hear.

Elder Bragg cleared his throat, temporarily silencing the room. His voice was rolled deep and deliberate, it was the evidence of his self righteousness.

“It really gladdens my heart,” he began, “to see that there are still wolves with their heads sc

  • The Wrong Mate, The Right Alpha   Chapter 112 - The Motion that Starts the Wheel.

    Darius’s POV Power never announced itself with thunder. It arrived quietly, through procedure,‘precedent and the careful misuse of words that sounded harmless to the dull lesser minds into agreement. I had learned that lesson early on, long before Damon was even coronated as the Alpha of Redwind. Long before the Moon Goddess had complicated matters for our family by choosing the wrong son. The old council chamber in the Redwind mansion was already half full when I entered. That alone told me everything I needed to know. Elder Bragg sat at the far end of the moon styled table, spine straight and with his fingers folded. His expression was carved from stone, his wife occupied the seat beside him despite having no formal authority. That was an intentional breach meant to provoke, to normalize defiance before it was officially sanctioned. He was making his own moves and marking his own territory, wings that I would clip off when the time was right. Several elders leaned towards on

  • The Wrong Mate, The Right Alpha   Chapter 111 - Fair Friends For Fair Weather.

    Talia’s POV “I’d thought you’d want me here,” I said softly. “Afterall we were in this together… would you want your associates to be left high and dry?”Seraphina’s gaze flickered. Just for a second. “Circumstances change and ours have changed already. The moment our hidden business became public… we ceased being associates.” The doors behind her opened wider. “You can come in,” she said. “But understand this, Alpha Princess: if you bring Damon’s attention down on us any further, you will not leave Redwind alive.” She whispered. “That’s my promise to you, Alpha Princess Talia.” I stepped past her, pulse roaring in my ears. This wasn’t what I had planned. This was not the safety I sought when I ran away from Stormdawn. This was another cage… just without the humiliation of people that bowed to me. As the doors closed behind me with one of the omegas taking me to my room far from the main quarters. The weight of the situation settled deep in my bones. I had run from my father’

  • The Wrong Mate, The Right Alpha   Chapter 110 - The Run to Redwind

    Talia’s POV I didn’t wait for permission. The moment the guard turned his back, the moment the echo of his boots faded down the corridor a bit, I made my move. I had spent my entire life learning how to survive in rooms like the one my father was calling me to. How to smile when cornered and how to bow without breaking, how to disappear while standing in plain sight.Being the Alpha Princess of Stormdawn had taught me that much, being my father’s daughter had done even more, if nothing else. But this time, survival didn’t mean composure. It meant escape. At that point, I gripped the guard by the neck taking him unawares and then touched the point in his jugular that I knew would be the point to put him to sleep. When I was sure he was down, he slipped through the servants’ passageways, the ones my father never bothered to learn because they were built for people he didn’t see. My pulse pounded in my ears, every shadow was a threat, every sound was a blade waiting to drop. The c

  • The Wrong Mate, The Right Alpha   Chapter 109 - The Princess Takes Off.

    Talia’s POV As an Alpha Princess, there was one thing I was blessed with. I always had this feeling of dread when something really wrong was going to happen. I woke up this morning and that feeling slithered into my chest before the door even opened. Before the omega even hurriedly knocked on my door. I was already pacing, my silk skirts brushed against my legs and my nails dug into my palms as if my body knew what my mind hadn’t fully caught up to yet. Something had gone wrong. Again. “Alpha Princess,” an omega’s voice called from the other side of the door, breathless and panicked. “Princess Talia… there’s… are you there? There’s something you need to see. It’s urgent.”I whirled, irritation flared hot and fast. “I said not to disturb me…”The door opened anyway. She rushed in, young, stupid and shaking and holding a stack of papers and a glossy magazine clutched close to her chest like a shield. That’s when I saw the headline. COUNCIL FRACTURE? REDWIND ALPHA FACES INTERNAL
