POV: Lyra

The great hall was quiet.

I sat on the throne with the crown of the High Alpha on my head and the weight of every pack in the known territories pressing down on my shoulders. The fire burned low in the hearth and the shadows danced on the walls and the only sound was the wind outside the windows.

Jaden stood at my right.

Becca stood at my left.

Selene stood behind me with a scroll in her hands and a look on her face that was serious and steady.

"The reports are in," she said. "The Fro

  • When the luna stops waiting    The Knife In The Dark

    POV: LyraThe blade came within an inch of my throat.I caught the wrist and twisted. The knife clattered to the stone floor. I drove my elbow into the attacker's chest and heard the breath leave their lungs in a rush.They hit the ground hard.I pinned them with my knee and looked down at their face.Vara.She stared up at me with wide eyes and blood on her lip."You," I said.She did not struggle."I had to know."I pressed my knee harder into her chest."Know what?"She met my eyes."If you could be killed."---I held her there for a long moment.The camp was silent. The warriors who had been watching from the shadows stepped forward. Jaden burst out of his tent with his sword drawn and his eyes wild."Lyra—""I am fine."He stopped.Vara did not look away from me."You left your flank open," she said. "You have been here for a week and you still do not know the camp. You still do not know who watches you. You still do not know who wants you dead."I released her.She sat up slowl

  • When the luna stops waiting    The Blood Moon Pack

    POV: LyraI woke to the sound of blades.The clash of steel on steel rang through the camp, sharp and relentless. I was on my feet before my eyes fully opened, hand reaching for the knife beneath my pillow.Old habits.I pulled on my boots and stepped out of the tent.The camp was alive.Warriors trained in the center of the valley, their movements precise and brutal. No wasted motion. No hesitation. A woman with a scar across her face disarmed a man twice her size and had him on his back in the dirt before he could blink.She looked up.Our eyes met.She did not bow.I held her gaze and said nothing.---Alpha Kael appeared beside me with a cup of something steaming in his hand. He offered it to me without a word.I took it.The liquid was bitter and hot and it burned going down. I did not flinch."You are up early," he said."I am up when I need to be."He nodded slowly."Good."We stood in silence for a moment, watching the warriors train."Your wolves are skilled," I said."They h

Their scouts have been seen near our borders. They have refused every attempt at negotiation."I leaned back."Then they have made their choice."She nodded."It appears so."I looked at the fire."Good."---The next morning I called a council meeting.The Alphas gathered in the great hall with their advisors and their warriors and their maps.I sat at the head of the table with the scroll in my hand and the crown on my head and the

His wolves have scattered. His camp has been abandoned."I leaned back."Then he kept his promise."She nodded."It appears so."I looked at the fire."Good."---The next morning I walked through the territory alone.The sun was warm on my face and the air was clean and the wolves around me were laughing

  • When the luna stops waiting    The King Inside my lover

    SELENA’S POV“Now, my Queen, shall we finish the murder you began?”Ian's voice came from the man standing before me, but the smile on his face belonged to someone who had died centuries ago.I couldn't move.His eyes were silver now, and the dark mark beneath his skin had spread across his throat. Even the way he held his head had changed. The man I loved was somewhere inside that body, trapped behind memories neither of us understood.“Let him go,” I whispered.The first King tilted his head.“After all this time, that is what you ask of me?”“I am speaking to Ian.”“Am I not Ian?”He stepped closer. Ian's familiar scent reached me, mixed with the cold smell of rain on stone. My heart recognized him even when his eyes did not.“I know you can hear me,” I said, looking directly into his face. “You told me you would never let the crown decide who I should love. Don't let it decide who you are.”For a moment, his fingers twitched.Then he grabbed my wrist.Pain shot through my arm as b

"The packs have returned to their territories. The wounded are healing. The dead have been honored."I nodded."And the alliances?""Holding. The Ironclaw and Stonefang have pledged their warriors to your command. The Embermoon have offered their healers and their scouts. The smaller packs have sent tributes and pledges of loyalty."I looked at the scroll."And the dissenters?"She hesitated."There are some who question the wisdom of a single High Alpha. Some wh
