In the old restaurant in town, the lamb soup rolled and steamed in the iron pot. White smoke from the pine firewood drifted up toward the rafters.

Two bowls of hot soup sat on the wooden table by the window.

Darcy took a slow sip, stirring the bits of meat at the bottom of the bowl with her spoon.

She was eating much slower than usual today. The rye bread beside her hand had only one corner bitten off.

The events of the past few days kept turning over in her mind.

The more she thought about the

  • Three Billionaire Alphas on Their Knees   Chapter 101 The Witnesses

    “They’re here to see Morana.”The clerk kept his voice as low as possible. A thin layer of cold sweat broke out at his temple.On the platform, the Speaker glanced at the list on the tablet. His face went rigid. He didn’t shout. Instead, he flipped the tablet face down on the table and waved Colin over from the side.“Send two patrol cars to Bend Three. Seal the road. Keep them all at the old waystation at the foot of the mountain. Without an Executive Council pass, not a single car reaches the plaza.”Colin hurried down from the side platform.The iron gates on both sides of the hall rose slowly on their mechanical hinges. The security personnel who had been blocking the exits withdrew behind the pillars and stopped obstructing anyone.Asher pulled his gaze back and caught Darcy’s wrist, pulling her up from the hard wooden chair.He tilted his head toward Hyde and gave the signal to pull out. The steward spoke low into the mic at his collar. The engines roaring outside dropped immedi

    The word had barely left the old man's mouth when the entire hall went silent.Two full seconds. Every gaze in the room snapped toward the back row.Then came the rapid rustle of turning pages and low whispers.The people in the back rows had no idea what the word meant. But at the long table up front, several older men went pale.“Shut him up! Drag him out!”Garrick shoved back his hard wooden chair. Its legs scraped against the stone floor with a harsh screech.He didn’t even look back at Darcy. His arm shot straight toward the last row, veins bulging at his temple.“That’s the exiled madman from years ago! Who let him in?!”“Order! Order in the hall!”On the high platform, the Speaker slammed his heavy gavel three times. The table thundered.He waved toward the side doors. “Security. Remove the disruptor. Take him down and hold him for review on charges of disrupting proceedings.”Two heavily armed guards with council enforcement badges strode out from the side doors. Their palms r

  • Three Billionaire Alphas on Their Knees   Chapter 99 When She Walked In

    On the last few kilometers of the mountain road leading to the council hall, the two modified pickup trucks ahead, both carrying Northern plates, suddenly pulled to the side and hit the brakes.The dozen cars behind them slowed. Snow chains ground against the ice with a harsh scrape.A clear lane opened all the way up the mountain.The Kingston snowplow at the front didn't honk. It rolled forward at a steady speed, crushing the snow.Darcy leaned back in the rear seat of the main car, watching through the armored window. A window in one of the cars ahead slid halfway down. Several men in thick bearskin coats rested their hands on their steering wheels, cigarettes clamped between their teeth, their eyes following the Kingston SUV as it passed. They watched until the car was gone.The entire road had gone quiet. No horns. No one overtook.Eight years ago, on the morning the Thornes threw her out of the North, she had ridden in a battered supply truck. The border patrol had held her at t

    When Darcy came downstairs, seven things had already been laid outside the Kingston residence gate.Not one of them bore a name.A pouch of coarse salt. An old wool blanket, washed pale. Two strings of dried venison. A length of silver chain, dulled with age. And three old wolf fangs strung on a leather cord.They were lined up neatly outside the iron fence, not one of them had crossed the warning line marked by the Kingston guards.The strange part was that no one had knocked."The first one came at four forty in the morning." The guard captain stood at the bottom of the steps, his voice low. "An old hunter, past sixty. Left the salt and walked off. After that, one every ten or twenty minutes. No names. No one asked to see you."Darcy stood inside the door, wool shawl over her shoulders, her gaze moving slowly across the unremarkable objects."Cameras?""Got them all. Locals, every one. No repeats, no weapons, no sign they coordinated with each other." The guard captain answered."Th

    The Central Council convoy had planned to drive straight into the Kingston estate.But before the lead car could even turn the corner, two heavy-duty snow trucks were parked across the road, blocking it completely.Darcy had no intention of letting them inside.She set the meeting place at the old guild hall in town. It was the open hall where local hunters rotated shifts and traded pelts. Wooden lattice windows lined all four sides of the hall. Even the townspeople smoking pipes outside the fence could see everything inside."Luna Darcy." Envoy Colin took off his snow-dusted heavy wool coat. Kingston guards stopped his attendants on the porch, three paces behind him. He had to pull out the chair across the long wooden table alone."You've chosen a rather public place for a confidential discussion."Darcy sat in the wooden chair facing the main door, a cup of rough tea in her hand. White steam curled off the surface in the cold air."Secrecy usually matters most to people who can't af
