Two Sisters Break the Bonds, Two Brothers Break Down Chapter 11
My sister was washing cups when I told her about finding Adrian on the street.She turned off the tap, listened, and asked whether he'd arrived at the shelter.I said he had.She turned the water back on.Adrian sent a letter later.There were no flowers. No papers offering to restore her position. No mention of the seat beside his throne.He wrote that he finally understood why she'd remembered the children's names and the families' grief for him. It hadn't been because those things were easy.It had been because she cared. He'd grown used to letting her do the caring for both of them.At the end, he said he was willing to take an ordinary job. He only hoped she might look at him once more.My sister finished the letter, put it in a drawer, and didn't reply.That afternoon, she had another panel to face.Representatives of the families were electing a director for the care center. The term was three years, with annual reviews of its finances and services.Under relationship status, my

The announcement that Adrian had lost his eligibility for the throne came a week after the storm.The final report was published alongside it.Beyond the false finding in the notice, the review established that he'd appointed Clara to the assistance program without training. Even after repeated objections from the staff, he'd continued to have her represent the program at events.No one had taken over the care duties left undone, yet the progress reports kept saying everything was on schedule.Investigators found requests from staff for more time. Adrian had written that they should keep to the original schedule and make adjustments after the succession hearing.Those requests predated his submission to the hearing. He'd known the work wasn't finished, but he'd still reported that everything was proceeding normally.The Alpha King removed him from office, and the pack representatives voted to disqualify him from the succession. He was free to find ordinary work, but he would no longer

I didn't pass on my first attempt.I still hadn't regained all my strength after the bond severing. On the last stretch of the weighted uphill climb, I missed the cutoff by forty seconds.The examiner handed me my results and said I could apply to retest once my strength was back.I thanked him and booked another attempt.My sister didn't get the empty building right away, either.She had to submit a budget, find qualified healers, and explain to the families what the new care center would be able to offer—and what it couldn't provide yet.At night, we sat at opposite ends of the dining table, working on our plans.Sometimes she'd stop in the middle of writing.Sometimes I'd pass a stack of lumber and the scent of pine would remind me of Ronan.But the next morning, we both got up and went where we needed to be.A month later, I passed the retest. I became an instructor with the Cedar Pack's search-and-rescue team and joined its regular callouts.My sister's center was given the use of

On the day the correction was published, my sister sat in our kitchen in the Cedar Pack, pouring herbal tea into my cup.My mark was gone. Nora was no longer hiding from me all day.Maeve called to say that everyone who'd received the notice had received the correction. No one had tampered with the children's records.My sister set down the teapot and thanked her.After the call, she bowed her head and covered her eyes.I didn't tell her not to cry. I just sat beside her and waited until she was ready.The Alpha King's two sons came together that evening.When they rang the doorbell, my sister told them through the door that we would only discuss the belongings we still needed to exchange.Adrian agreed.But once inside, the first thing he produced was a request to reinstate my sister.“The Alpha King has put an interim committee in charge. I'll support your return. Your office, your staff—you can have it all back.”My sister didn't take the paper.“If I want to go back, I'll apply to

Adrian turned sharply toward her.Clara avoided his gaze and took out her phone.“I didn't ask him to remove Evelyn.”The clerk asked her to submit the original messages. Once they'd been verified, the full exchange and its timestamps appeared on the screen.It was from the night of the vow renewal.Clara had written: I'm feeling much better now. The truth is, I'm not sure she was projecting her aura. I might just have been too nervous. Will this cause trouble for Evelyn?Adrian had replied: Don't worry about it. I'll handle it.The notice announcing my sister's replacement had been signed the following morning.My sister stared at the two dates. Then she gave a small, fleeting smile.When he'd sat by her bed and touched her forehead, he'd already known the accusation was unreliable.He'd known it while she explained how each child needed to be cared for.And he'd put her name on that notice anyway.For the first time during the hearing, the Alpha King spoke. “After receiving that mess

On the day of the hearing, we walked into the hall.The moment Adrian saw my sister, he stood and pulled out the chair beside him.She walked straight to the witness table instead.His hand stayed on the back of the chair. “Evelyn, your seat is here.”My sister set her folder on the witness table.“I'm not here to speak on your behalf.”She took out an official notice announcing her replacement and handed it to the clerk.Now that notice was on the screen for every pack representative to see.My sister inclined her head to the Alpha King and the representatives.“My mate bond with Adrian has been severed. I'm here today to correct this official document signed by Adrian.”My sister described what had happened at the vow renewal, then turned to Adrian. “What evidence did you have that I hurt Clara?”“She was clearly unwell.”“Was there a medical examination?”He glanced at Clara in the audience.“No.”When called upon, the healer who'd been on duty stood and confirmed that an examinatio
