Wanted By The Alpha And His Brothers Chapter 173
Lana's POVThe great hall of Red Creek has never felt so alive with held breath.I stand at the edge of the gathered pack, my back against the ancient stone, watching the confrontation arrange itself in the center of the room. I should not be here. This is not my pack, not my judgment to deliver, not my moment to claim. But when Bastien came to the east wing with that particular look on his face and said only it is time, I understood that some moments do not permit absence, that there are things you owe your own history.I am here because the truth that is about to be spoken in this room belongs to me as much as it belongs to anyone.Ronan stands at the center of everything. He is every inch the Alpha he was born to be, composed and absolute and carrying the kind of stillness that belongs to someone who has made peace with a very difficult decision. Through the bond, which has been healing slowly in the weeks since Thornwood, I feel what lives underneath the composure. Grief made clea
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 113
Lana's POV The cold night air was a slap, shocking me into a desperate clarity. I couldn’t run to my room looking like this, torn blouse, scraped palms, leaves in my hair. That was a confession. I skidded to a stop behind a large marble statue of some hunting goddess, my breath coming in ragged, s

Ronan's POV The pain was a living thing. It started behind my eyes, a rhythmic, punishing throb that pulsed in time with my heartbeat and radiated out, tightening my skull and coiling nausea in my gut. I hadn’t been this hungover since I was a reckless twenty-year-old. The stale, sour taste of bou

Ronan's POV The weight of the Lancaster Alpha title felt different tonight. It wasn’t the familiar burden of responsibility, but the sharp, constricting pressure of a spectacle. The annual inter-pack gala, held this year in the grand hall of the Blackthorn estate, was less a celebration and more a

Lana's POV The heavy envelope in my hand was no longer just paper and wax; it was a gambit, a move in the silent game unfolding around me. Attending a very public, very political gala at Ronan’s estate was a risk. It would put me back in the crosshairs of pack scrutiny, next to Gideon, under Jessi
