The world around me suddenly slowed down as I had finally witnessed first hand his cruelty. The faint glow of the moon glinting off the dark blood stains on his shirt. It felt surreal and it was my fault for underestimating him once again.

I watched him disappear from sight into the house and I finally broke from my paralysis and stumbled back into my room, sliding the glass door shut but I didn't lock it because what was the point? it's not like a lock can stop him.

I've tried believe me.

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 172

    Ronan's POVThe quiet in my office lies.It has been doing this for hours, presenting itself as stillness while everything underneath it moves. I have sat at this desk and read the same pages enough times that the words have stopped carrying meaning separately from their implications, and their implications are enormous and irrevocable and spread across the wood in front of me like the anatomy of a disaster.Bastien found it. Idris helped him dig, pulling threads from places Gideon had been careful to bury, following chains of correspondence that were supposed not to exist anymore. Together they assembled something that is less like a revelation and more like a mirror. The kind that shows you what was always there and makes you wonder how you failed to see it.The door opens without a knock. Bastien and Idris enter together, carrying the particular exhaustion of people who have been working in the dark for days and have finally come back into the light with something in their hands. T

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 171

    Lana's POVTime is a strange thing when you stop trying to hold it still.I have stopped counting the days. Stopped marking their passage by the quality of light through my window or the rhythm of meals or the quiet shuffle of the guard rotation changing outside my door. Those structures belong to a version of me that needed external things to feel anchored. That version is gone. What replaced her does not need to count days because she can feel time moving inside her body, in the slow, inexorable expansion of something that has no interest in waiting for her to be ready.The power is stronger every morning.I feel it when I wake, a hum in my bones that was not there when I closed my eyes the night before, as if my body has been working through the dark hours on something I did not authorize. I feel it when I walk the east corridor, electricity moving along the surface of my skin, barely contained, politely waiting. I feel it when I am absolutely still, lying on my back in the early h

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 170

    Bastien's POVThe suppression magic lifted like a hand releasing a throat.I felt it go sometime in the hours after Lana's power tore through Thornwood, after the truths Gideon had spent decades burying came flooding into the open, after the careful architecture of everything he had built began coming apart at its foundations. One moment the constant weight in my chest was there, pressing down on everything, dulling every instinct and sense. The next it was simply gone, and I was gasping with the unfamiliar sensation of being entirely myself for the first time in longer than I want to calculate.I did not run. I was too depleted for running, too wrung out from weeks of suppression, too aware that the chaos beyond the walls of wherever I was being held was only the beginning of something that would require every bit of strength I had left. So I waited. I let the healers assess me with their careful hands and their unreadable expressions. I watched the guard rotations change from Gideon

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 169

    Ronan's POVI see the files in her hands the moment I enter the room.I see her face, and I know.She is standing in the center of my office surrounded by scattered papers, pale as winter, her eyes blazing with something that is not anger, not grief, not any of the emotions I have developed strategies for managing over the years of my leadership. This is worse than all of them. This is the cold, absolute certainty of someone who has assembled the pieces and seen the picture clearly and will never be able to unsee it.The second folder lies open on my desk. The one I told myself I had not opened because I was afraid of what it contained, which was a lie I had become comfortable telling myself. The truth is simpler and more damning: I did not open it because I did not want confirmation. Confirmation would have required action. Acknowledgment would have required honesty. And honesty, I have spent my entire adult life understanding, is the one thing that cannot be taken back once it is gi

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 168

    Lana's POVMy hands are shaking, and I did not notice until I tried to turn the page.The first page of the second file is clinical in the way of documents produced by observers rather than participants. Detached. Precise. The kind of language that has been drained of all warmth on purpose, because warmth would require whoever wrote it to acknowledge that the subject they are analyzing is a person.Subject: Lana Hubbard.Classification: Hybrid Specimen — Fox/Wolf.Designation: Lycan. Theoretical category, previously undocumented.Lycan.The word sits in my skull and refuses to settle. I have heard it before, in whispered conversations in places where people believed I could not hear, in ancient texts Maison showed me when he was trying to explain what I might be becoming, in the frightened stories that pass between wolves when they think they are among only their own. A Lycan is a creature of legend. Something that exists in the histories as a warning, not a possibility. Half Fox, hal

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 167

    Lana's POVNo one speaks about it openly.The wolves are too disciplined, too careful with their Alpha's grief and Jessica's loss to voice what I see moving in their eyes every time I enter a room. But silence can carry as much accusation as words, and the silence in Red Creek since that night has been very loud. It follows me through the corridors and sits down at meals with me and waits outside my door in the mornings.Whose fault was it?I know the answer. I know it with the clarity of a truth-seer and the certainty of someone who was actually there, who poured everything she had into keeping that small life going, who exhausted herself fighting for a child she had no obligation to fight for at all. Without me, that baby would have been gone weeks before it was. I gave it more time than it would have had. I gave it everything I was capable of giving.It was not enough. But it was not nothing. And it was not my fault.That does not stop the looks.I have grown familiar with the spec

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 103

    Lana's POV The silence of my room at Thornwood was no longer peaceful; it was accusatory. The elegant furnishings seemed to whisper Gideon’s carefully measured words. He never loved her. He was careless. His enemies exploited that. The story of Selene, Ronan’s first wife, was a poison pill wrapped

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 101

    Lana's POVThe silence after Gideon’s final command wasn’t empty. It was full of the echo of his words, a chilling blueprint of manipulation laid bare. Loopholes. Vulnerabilities. By any means necessary. Jessica’s assignment hadn’t been love or loyalty; it had been corporate espionage in a world of

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 102

    Lana's POVKaelia’s reaction was more telling than any answer she could have given. The blood draining from her face, the wide-eyed stare of pure shock was as if I’d reached into a hidden compartment of her mind and pulled out a ghost.“Why would you ask that?” she repeated, her voice barely a whis

  • Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers   Chapter 106

    Lana's POV The world didn’t shatter. It froze. The gasps, the murmurs, the clinking of glasses all became a distant, distorted hum, as if I were submerged in icy water. My vision tunneled, focusing on Jessica’s triumphant, glistening eyes and the cruel curve of her smile. Then it snapped to Ronan.
