Cressida's pov

The nightmare took me again.

I was seven years old, standing in a circle of salt while my mother's hands pressed against my chest. Her voice was a river of words I didn't understand, old words rented the air.

"Never let it out, little one. Never let them see. They'll hunt you forever."

The binding sank into my skin like needles of ice. I screamed. My mother cried.

And when it was over, I smelled like lavender and herbs and nothing else.

Forgettable, she said. Untraceable.

Safe.

  • The Alpha's Secret Witch    The Blood on the Paper

    Cressida's pov The note was on my pillow when I woke up.I had not heard anyone enter and I had not felt anyone near and I had not sensed anything wrong. But there it was. A folded piece of paper, crisp and white, with my name written on the front in red ink. The ink was dark and it was thick and it looked like blood. The letters were uneven and jagged and they seemed to pulse in the dim morning light.My heart stopped and my hands started shaking and my breath caught in my throat. The frost was already spreading across my skin and the cold was already deepening in my chest and the fear was already rising. I reached for the note and my fingers were trembling and my skin was cold and my mind was racing.I unfolded the paper and the words were sharp and the letters were jagged and the message was clear.You are not safe.No one is safe.Run while you still can.I stared at the words and the frost spread across my skin and the cold deepened in my chest and the fear rose in my heart. The

  • The Alpha's Secret Witch    The Poison in the Cup

    Sha's pov The estate was quiet and the halls were empty and the silence was suffocating.I sat in my room and the windows were tall and the view was vast and the world outside was white and still. The fire was crackling and the candles were flickering and the room was warm. But the warmth did not reach me and the comfort did not touch me and the peace did not find me. I had been confined to this room for weeks and the walls were closing in and the days were blurring together and the anger was burning.I had been refusing food and the servants had stopped bringing trays and my mother had stopped trying and my father had stopped caring. I was wasting away and I was fading and I was disappearing. But I did not care. I did not care about anything except the hatred that was consuming me.The door opened and a servant walked in.Her face was pale and her hands were shaking and her voice was small."Miss Sha," she said."What?""Your mother has sent a tray.""I am not hungry.""She insisted

  • The Alpha's Secret Witch    The Unease

    Lucian's pov The walk back through the forest was silent and the snow was deep and the wind was cold and the world was quiet.I walked beside Cressida and my arm was around her shoulders and her body was pressed against mine. She was cold and she was shaking and she was exhausted. The frost was still on her skin and the cold was still in her bones and the fear was still in her heart. But she was walking and she was breathing and she was alive. Her steps were slow and her breaths were shallow and her eyes were fixed on the ground. She looked like she had been hollowed out and the emptiness was spreading.I did not speak.I could not speak.Something was wrong and I could not place it and I could not name it and I could not shake it. The feeling had been building since I found her in the clearing and it had been growing with every step we took. It was not anger and it was not fear and it was not worry. It was something else. Something deeper. Something that made my wolf restless and my

  • The Alpha's Secret Witch    The Breaking

    Cressida's pov The forest was cold and the trees were bare and the snow was deep and the world was silent.I had been walking for hours and my feet were numb and my hands were shaking and my eyes were burning. The frost was on my skin and the cold was in my bones and the fear was in my heart. Ember was gone and I could not find her and I could not stop searching. The branches clawed at my face and the snow soaked through my boots and the wind cut through my coat like knives. But I did not stop. I could not stop. The thought of her out here alone, cold and scared and waiting for me to find her, was the only thing keeping me moving.The snow crunched beneath my boots and the wind howled through the trees and the branches creaked and groaned. The world was white and still and empty and I was alone. The frost was spreading across my skin and the cold was deepening in my chest and the fear was growing into something I could not control."Ember!" I shouted.No answer."Ember!"No answer."

  • The Alpha's Secret Witch    The Council's Fury

    Lucian's pov The council chamber was cold and the walls were stone and the air was thick with tension.I sat at the table with my hands flat on the cold surface and my jaw tight and my eyes hard. The elders were gathered around and their faces were stern and their voices were sharp. Elder Marlow sat at the head of the table with her gray hair coiled tight and her fingers steepled beneath her chin. Elder Thorn was on her left with his broad face carved from stone. Elder Whitmore was on her right and his spectacles were perched on his nose and his eyes were unreadable.Marcus Voss stood by the window and his arms were crossed and his jaw was tight. The snow was falling outside and the world was white and cold and the silence was heavy."The witches are getting bolder," Elder Marlow said. "They are moving closer to the academy. The patrols have reported sightings near the eastern border. They are not hiding anymore. They want us to know they are coming.""I know," I said."The hunters a

  • The Alpha's Secret Witch    The Empty Warmth

    Cressida's pov I woke up cold.That was the first thing I noticed. The cold that had nothing to do with winter and everything to do with absence. The cold of reaching for something that was not there and the cold of expecting warmth that never came. My hand moved instinctively across the pillow, searching for the familiar weight, the soft fur, the steady purr that had become as essential to my survival as breathing.Nothing.My eyes flew open and I sat up and the blanket fell to my waist and the room was quiet and the bed was empty. The fire had burned low and the candles had guttered and the shadows were long and deep. The pillow beside me was cold and the sheets were cold and the silence was absolute. The frost was already spreading across the window and the cold was seeping into my bones and the fear was rising in my chest."Ember?" My voice was rough and my throat was tight and the word felt wrong in the empty room.No answer.I swung my legs over the side of the bed and my feet

  • The Alpha's Secret Witch    The welcome assembly

    Lucian's povI couldn't outrun the way she smelled like lavender and herbs no matter how hard I tried.But there was one question I have been meaning to ask her."Who hurt you?"

    Lucian's povMy lungs were burning and my thighs screaming as the blade of my right skate tears a trench with every stride and yet I can't out run the restlessness within me.My wolf is awake. Not the sluggish dying thing that's been fading inside me for years.This is hunger and alert This is a

  • The Alpha's Secret Witch    Maybe you should ask the Alpha

    Cressida's povA sharp pain like a blade between my ribs was what jolted me as I regained consciousness.My fingers flew to touch the injury on my face, it was closing. Thank goodness.Shit. That means half my cover has been blown."It's just me here don't panic" I turned and that's when I noticed
