She read the letter alone first.

Not because she'd been asked to. Because when Davan handed it across, she had looked at the people in the room and understood that whatever was inside it was going to change the shape of this conversation in ways she needed to see before anyone else did. She took it to the sovereign chamber, which opened for her without being asked, and sat in the first sovereign's chair — worn smooth at the arms, shaped by someone else's hands — and read it in the amber light.

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   Volume 2, Chapter 93 — The Smoke and the Snarl

    The cold rain did not wash away the scent of ozone. It made it heavy, pinning the metallic tang of Lucien’s suppressed Alpha command to the wet cobblestones of Hallis Street.Kaela did not step back. If she retreated now, her wolf would interpret it as submission, triggering the biological reflex to lower her gaze and bare her throat. She forced her spine straight, her muscles locking in defiance as she met his unreadable stare. Beneath her coat, the small, hard object Isara Draven had pressed into her hand hours ago felt like a brand against her ribs."Corsvain Row is burning," Lucien repeated. His voice was too quiet, a low vibration that rattled the windowpanes of the deserted shops around the square. "And my Sovereign of Compliance is standing in the dark, holding a torn piece of cloth fished from a drain.""It’s a lead, Lucien," Kaela said, her tone as clinical as she could manage while her heart hammered a frantic rhythm against her breastbone. "The runner drop point was here. T

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   Volume 2, Chapter 92 — The Paper Trail Sweats

    The blue wax seal on the Ratification notice was still warm when Voss dropped it onto Kaela’s desk."Three days," Voss said, his voice flat. "The Council of Court Sovereigns just finalized the seating roster. Your name is on the ledger, Kaela. Next to his."Kaela did not touch the paper. The lamplight caught the edges of the two torn fragments she had spent the last hour smoothing out against the dark mahogany. Fitted together, the fibres matched perfectly: third door past the— bleeding straight into final fitting, confirm delivery address, ten days from tonight, M.R."Three days until the vote," she murmured, her thumb tracing the line where the paper had been violently separated. "And six days after that until whoever 'M.R.' is collects whatever was tailored on Corsvain Row.""If the date doesn't move … " Voss warned, leaning over the desk. His eyes drifted to the fragments. "You went there alone. Lucien knows. He isn't asking you about it, but the restraint is eating a hole through

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   Volume 2, Chapter 91 — Third Door

    The street was quiet enough that the open door was the loudest thing on it.Kaela stopped six feet short. Third door past the crooked lamp post — she'd counted from the corner twice to be sure — and it stood open a hand's width, no light behind it.She hadn't waited for Davan. She'd sent word and come anyway, because six streets was nothing and a closing door was everything, and she was already aware, standing here alone, that this was a decision she'd have to answer for later. Not now.She pushed the door wider with two fingers.The workroom smelled of hot metal and scorched starch. A pressing iron sat upright on its heel, still ticking as it cooled. Bolts of cloth stood in their racks, undisturbed, but the cutting table had been swept clear in a hurry — chalk dust smeared sideways, not brushed, and a stool knocked flat that no one had bothered to right.Movement, at the rear window. A shape going through it, not fast, careful, like someone who'd done it before.“Wait!"The figure dr

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   Volume 2, Chapter 90 — Whoever Sent Him

    The runner's eyes went from Kaela to the corridor behind her, calculating an exit that didn't exist.He turned to run back the way he'd come. Voss caught his sleeve first — a guard was half a second behind, hand closing on the other arm — and the runner did the only thing left to him: he crushed the folded page against his chest and twisted, trying to fold himself around it like the paper was the only part of him that mattered.“Don't — " Kaela started, but he was already tearing it. Not to destroy it. To split what he was holding between two grasping hands, hers and Voss's, so that neither got the whole of it.The page came apart at the fold line that had already weakened it. Kaela ended up with the top third. Voss had the rest, still fisted in the runner's grip until the guard pried his fingers loose one at a time."Who sent you?” Voss's voice didn't rise. It didn't need to.The runner said nothing. He wasn't defiant. He was young, and frightened, and looking at Kaela the way people

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   Volume 2, Chapter 89 — What the Fabric Didn't Say

    The fabric came in wrapped in a specimen sleeve, and Mira had it under the scope before Davan finished his report."Synthetic-cotton blend," she said. "Not standard-issue anything. There's a manufacturing thread here. See the double-stitch pattern on the edge? That's not torn accidentally. That's a seam allowance. This came off a jacket, not a shirt.""Whose jacket?""I don't know whose. I know ‘whose supplier.’ " Mira turned the sleeve under the light. "This stitch pattern's used by exactly one tailoring house that services Council-adjacent staff. Not Council members. Staff. Attendants, drivers, second-tier security."Davan's jaw tightened. "So it wasn't a stranger in the woods.""It was somebody's jacket. That's all I've got. I'm not naming a person off a seam." She set it down. "But it narrows the field from ‘anyone’ to ‘someone with institutional access’. That's not nothing.""It's not a name either.""No," Mira agreed. "It's a thread. Pull it or don’t."*****Renner found the dec

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   Volume 2, Chapter 88 — The Claimant Record

    Davan moved the moment the second watcher shifted weight.It wasn't much — a half-step back into the tree line, testing space that hadn't been tested in an hour — but it was enough. Davan came off the ridge at an angle that put him between the watcher and the marker itself, not chasing, cutting.The watcher ran.Davan closed the gap fast enough to get a hand on a shoulder before the figure twisted free, dropped low, and put a knee into his ribs hard enough to buy three seconds. Three seconds was enough. By the time Davan had his footing back, there was only broken brush and a strip of dark fabric caught on a branch where a jacket had torn."Lucien." He was already moving, relay open, breath still uneven. "Lost them. They knew the terrain, better than a first pass would explain. Left fabric. No face, no scent I recognize, and they were gone before I could pin either.""Bring the fabric in," Lucien said. "Don't chase further tonight. If they've mapped that ground once, they'll expect pu

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   Rejection

    "Say it again," Kaela said, her voice shaking — but not with fear.The words hung over the Wolfe Pack's great hall like smoke that wouldn't clear. Three hundred wolves had gone perfectly still. The ceremony torches threw long shadows across the flagstone floor. Nobody moved. Nobody breathed.Adrian

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   What She Carries

    What She CarriesThe car smelled like pine resin and something older. Darker. She couldn't name it.Lucien drove fast but not recklessly, which told her he'd done this before — not this exact situation, but something adjacent. Someone at the wheel in the dark with bad options on all sides. He handl

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   What You Are

    What You AreThey ran.Not blind. Lucien moved with direction, taking angles through the dark that suggested he'd already mapped this forest, already chosen a route before tonight. That should have been reassuring. Instead it made the back of Kaela's neck prickle, because a man who had pre-planned

  • You Will Regret Rejecting Me   The Man in the Dark

    She didn't run.That was the first thing Kaela decided, standing at the tree line with her palm still cold and a stranger watching her from the dark. Running was what prey did. She was not, regardless of what this evening had proven, prey."You've been watching me," she said. Not a question."Yes."
