Chapter 137

BIANCA

"Which means he wanted me here. Within reach." The implications were assembling themselves with horrible clarity. "He didn't approve my entry out of bureaucratic routine or because Klaus vouched for me. He approved it because Voss wanted me accessible. Because they'd lost me once when I survived the ritual, and having me working in a city under the Alpha King's nominal protection meant I was contained, observable, and available when they were ready to move."

"Bianca—"

  • Unmatched Wife: Not His To Claim Anymore   Chapter 146

    Chapter 146MATTHEWThe school pickup line moved at the pace it always moved, which was to say approximately the pace of a glacier melting, which required a level of patience that I had never thought I was capable of having, and I spent the fifteen minutes of waiting doing what I'd been doing for most of the past three days—turning the same set of facts over in my mind and failing to find an arrangement of them that made comfortable sense.Two high-ranking officials from BloodMoon City wanted to attend my pack assembly.That was the fact I kept returning to. Not because it was impossible, because this happened before, volunteers from other packs visiting a neighbouring pack, was common, but what made it impossible like to me, was because of the specific combination. The Alpha King himself, who by all accounts had barely engaged with external relations in five years, had locked himself up behind his doors after the death of his mate and focused on just his son was suddenly motivated

    Chapter 145BIANCAThe three children sat in their corner of the playground, surrounded by books and dinosaurs, entirely unconcerned with the running and shouting happening around them. The girl had opened one of her books and was reading something aloud—I could tell from the way Theo was listening, head slightly tilted, the posture of someone taking in information. The boy had his book open on the ground in front of all three of them, something with photographs, something they could all look at together.Theo laughed.It was quiet from here—I couldn't hear it through the windows and the distance—but I could see it. The way his shoulders moved, the way his face changed, the brief flash of that grin that was almost his old grin.My eyes burned.He was okay. He was going to be okay. Not perfectly, not without cost, not without the shape of loss remaining in him for a very long time. But he had friends who sat in his corner. He had dino

    Chapter 144BIANCAHe was carrying something. A small bag, canvas, worn at the strap in the way that meant it had been used constantly and handled with the particular intensity of a child who didn't separate easily from objects they'd decided were important.I recognized the bag.I'd bought it for him at a market stall eight months ago, before everything, because he'd seen it and pointed at it with the wordless urgency of a child who doesn't yet have language for wanting something. It had been red then. It was still red, faded now at the edges, one of the strap buckles replaced with something that didn't quite match.He'd kept it. Matthew had kept it for him.My throat closed.Theo moved to a section of the playground near the far fence—not the climbing equipment, not the open space where most of the children were running, but a quieter corner near a low bench where there was a small patch of level ground. He set his bag down with the careful

    Chapter 143KLAUS"Yes. The full information needs to come from someone he has reason to trust and context to understand. Klaus Blackwood from BloodMoon City is—" I paused. "He has no reason to trust me beyond the fact that I have resources and I called. That's not enough for what he actually needs to know." "Tell me what you know about the preparation work Voss is doing. Specifically what she's building, what it will look like from a magical signature standpoint, and what I'd need to do to counteract it."This was what I'd hoped for and expected. Bianca operating as the resource she was—not as the object of everyone's protective instincts but as the person best equipped to address the specific problem at hand.I pulled up Roy's documentation and began walking her through it.We worked for ninety minutes, until Lucian appeared in the doorway looking like a man who'd also not slept, followed shortly by Elijah and Mikael and Roy in various states of early-morning functionality.By five

    Chapter 142KLAUS"I'm going to tell her everything tonight," Lucian said. "About the call with Matthew, about Thorne's positioning, about where Voss is. And then I'm going to tell her the thing I've been holding back since she arrived in this city."I didn't need to ask what he meant. There was only one thing left, and we both knew it."Lucian," I said. "It's time.""I know." A long exhale. "Klaus, if she leaves after—if she decides she can't—""Then you will have been honest, and she will have made an informed choice," I said. "Which is all you ever owed her." I paused. "But I don't think that's what happens. I've watched her with you. With Louis. With the life she's built here. That doesn't disappear because the foundation turns out to be more complicated than she knew.""You can't know that.""No," I admitted. "But I can observe evidence and draw reasonable conclusions. And the evidence suggests that Bianca Morrison is not a woman who makes her choices based on convenience or simp

    Chapter 141KLAUSLucian needed to tell Bianca about the call with Matthew before she found out from any other direction. She was already planning to go to Silver Moon territory. She was already, I suspected, further along in her decision-making than she'd been willing to say to Lucian on the phone earlier today. If she arrived at that assembly operating on information that didn't include this conversation, if she made decisions based on an incomplete understanding of what groundwork had been laid—My phone buzzed. Elijah.*Lockwood's movements for the past six hours tracked. He left BloodMoon City at fourteen hundred, driving toward Silver Moon territory. Took secondary roads rather than the main route. Arrived at a location seventeen kilometers outside Silver Moon pack boundary approximately two hours ago. Currently stationary.*I read the message twice.Thorne had left the city before I'd even made the call to Matthew. Had been positioning himself in Silver Moon territory for hours

    Chapter 23BIANCA The beeping was what woke me up from the uneasy sleep that I had been in. I knew where I was before I even opened my eyes.Hospital bed. And this time, I was here as a patient.My head felt like someone had taken a hammer to it, and kept pounding without taking any breaks. I trie

    Chapter 14 BIANCA I couldn't believe my son was deciding to treat me as if I was invincible to him, he wouldn't even spare me a glance, as he obstinately looked at the other side.

Not until you sign these transfer papers."she said as I turned to see her holding out a document, that she apparently wanted me to sign."I don't have time for this right now, Bianca.

I could smell the scent of pine trees and something burnt like coal and through my blurred vision, I could make out a face
