The fortress was colder inside than out.
Stone walls trapped the chill. Narrow corridors wound like veins, lit by torches that did little to warm the air. Soldiers watched me with suspicion and curiosity as they led me deeper, boots echoing on stone.
I tried to memorize the path—left, right, down worn stairs—but it blurred together, a maze designed to disorient.

To Love The Hunters Daughter Chapter Ninety-Two – The Commander's Truth
EvelynThe fortress was colder inside than out.Stone walls trapped the chill. Narrow corridors wound like veins, lit by torches that did little to warm the air. Soldiers watched me with suspicion and curiosity as they led me deeper, boots echoing on stone.I tried to memorize the path—left, right, down worn stairs—but it blurred together, a maze designed to disorient.They brought me to a council chamber. Maps covered the walls. Weapons hung in displays.This was where the Order made its decisions. Where they'd decided to hunt wolves for generations.The commander gestured to a chair. "Sit."I sat, hands folded to hide their trembling.Cole was placed across from me. Our eyes met in shared understanding.The commander settled at the head of the table, flanked by two office
To Love The Hunters Daughter Chapter Ninety-One – The Fortress Gates
EvelynDawn broke cold and clear.I woke with my heart already racing, the knowledge of what today meant settling over me like a weight.Today, everything would change.Around me, the camp was already stirring. Warriors moving with quiet purpose. Horses being saddled with careful hands. Weapons checked one final time.Rafe sat near the cold fire pit, staring at nothing. Through the bond, I felt his tension.I crossed to him, settling beside him on the log."Ready?" I asked quietly."No." His honesty didn't surprise me. He never lied to me, even when a comforting fiction might have been easier. "But we're doing it anyway.""We are."He turned to look at me, eyes searching my face. "Last chance to change your mind. About leading."
To Love The Hunters Daughter Chapter Ninety – The Weight of Tomorrow
EvelynI woke to gray light filtering through the trees and the sound of camp breaking around me. My body ached from yesterday's ride, muscles protesting as I sat up.Rafe was already awake, rolling up his bedroll with practiced efficiency."Morning," he said when he saw me stirring. "How'd you sleep?""Not well." I touched the pendant Serah had given me, still warm against my skin. "You?""Same."Around us, the warriors moved quietly, packing supplies and checking weapons. Cole stood near his horse, still bound but looking more alert than yesterday. His eyes found mine across the clearing, and something passed between us—understanding, maybe. Or shared fear.Talia appeared with water and dried fruit. "Eat. You'll need your strength today."I forced myself to eat, though the food tasted like ash. My stomach was twisted with nerves that had nothing to do with hunger."Evelyn." Talia's voice was gentle. "Whatever happens tomorrow, you won't face it alone.""I know." I managed a weak sm

EvelynI woke to a hand on my shoulder."Evelyn." Rafe's voice was urgent but quiet. "Wake up."I sat up quickly, heart pounding. The camp around us was still, everyone else asleep.Only the crackling of the watch fire and the soft sounds of breathing filled the air."What's wrong?" I whispered, reaching for the bond instinctively.But Rafe's emotions were calm. Not afraid. Just... awed."Nothing's wrong." He helped me to my feet, voice soft. "But you need to see this."He led me through the sleeping camp, careful not to wake anyone. Cassian stood watch near the perimeter, but even he seemed frozen, staring at something beyond the tree line.And then I saw her.Serah stood at the edge of the clearing, bathed in moonlight that seemed to come from nowhere and e

EvelynI didn't sleep.How could I?Today we'd ride out to meet the Order and I was supposed to convince them to stand down with nothing but words.I sat at the window, watching the sky lighten from black to deep purple. Dawn was close.Behind me, Rafe stirred."You should rest," he said quietly. "It's a long ride.""I can't." I pulled my knees to my chest. "Every time I close my eyes, I see it going wrong.""Hey." The bed creaked as he got up. His arms wrapped around me from behind. "We'll handle whatever comes.""What if I make it worse?" I whispered. "What if going there provokes them instead of calming them down?""Then we fight. But at least we'll have tried." He pressed a kiss to my temple. "That's more than most would do."I wished I had
