091 | What sort of idiot would believe me?

Rhiannon’s POV‘This is amazing!’ I laughed, letting the thrill of sprinting through the woods ease my other worries. They didn’t go away, of course, but they were quietened for a while. ‘Fuck, Tigs, I’ve missed you.’‘I’ve missed you! It’s great to be back.’‘Where were you?’She shrugged, somehow managing to do it without breaking stride. ‘It’s hard to say. Gone, I suppose. I was still of aware of everything, but… I was separate. Like a star looking down, unable to do anything but watch.’My belly swooped. ‘You were really gone? For good?’‘If the Moon Goddess hadn’t put me back, I wasn’t coming back.’‘It was really her?’ I breathed. ‘The Moon Goddess herself intervened to give you back to me?’‘She did.’ Tiger’s eyes lit up, burning an even brighter gold than before. They reflected back to me off every tree trunk we passed, as if she had two lamps beaming out of her face. ‘Marcella should never have ripped us apart. She was righting a wrong.’‘Righting a wrong,’ I repeated, squint

092 | Alpha Caleb's power of command

Rhiannon’s POVI blinked through the shroud of darkness curtaining my vision. Every part of me was cold, and I tried to curl in on myself to warm up. Painful shivers wracked through me. Where had Tiger’s fur gone? I could feel hard snow compacted down beneath me, and human limbs trembling instead of my wolf’s powerful legs.Then I realised why I was so cold.I was naked.I sat up sharply and pressed a palm to my forehead. Or I tried to, at least – warm arms enveloped me, holding me tightly to a familiar chest. “Are you all right?” Caleb murmured, his voice raspy with concern. He tucked his cloak around my shoulders; I snuggled into its heat, too confused and brain-fogged to do anything more.“What happened?” I asked eventually.He kissed my forehead; I heard two low growls from the others. Caleb’s back stiffened. “Tiger was walking along, and then she wobbled, and then you fell. You shifted out after you hit the ground.”I squeezed my eyes shut before opening them again. “I think I b

093 | The awful truth

Rhiannon’s POVCaleb looked at Amelia sharply. That alone was enough to make me curious – and it wasn’t like I could turn down the Luna’s request anyway, even if I’d wanted to.“Of course, Luna Amelia.” My gaze dipped to Caleb as I spoke; he shook his head slightly, a frown pinching his brow. “We won’t go far,” said the Luna, but Caleb cut her off.“Why are you taking her anywhere? The reason we’re stopping is so that Rhiannon can rest.”Stephen shot me a dirty look at that reminder. I held my hands up. “I said I was fine.”Amelia sighed. “We’ll only be five minutes.”“If you want to talk to her, talk here.” Caleb crossed his arms. “Mindlink if you don’t want us listening in.”“I asked if she’d come with me. I never said anything about talking.”‘This is ridiculous,’ I muttered to Tiger. Then, aloud, I said, “It’s fine, Caleb. I’m more than happy to go.”He replied through a mindlink. ‘She’s up to something. What if she hurts you? Kills you?’I couldn’t hold back my scoff. ‘She’s sti

094 | Turned against me

Caleb’s POVI paced around our shitty little camp, doing loop after loop around the fire and feeling two sets of eyes on me the whole time. I was pointedly ignoring Stephen, but I met Foxy’s gaze whenever I went past him, curled up in a mound of Rhiannon’s clothes in one of the tents.All I wanted to do was mindlink Rhiannon – but how pathetic was that? The girl was a powerhouse in her own right; she could handle anything Amelia threw at her.Knight whined. ‘But she’s not well. She passed out not long ago. And Maeve is strong, man. Really strong.’‘Rhi is right,’ I said on a sigh. ‘Ames wouldn’t hurt her. She never agreed with what I did to Marcella, even though Marcella had poisoned half the pack. She wouldn’t touch Rhiannon over something none of us can control.’I hoped, anyway. I knew them both well, and that meant I knew they both had fierce tempers. One comment taken the wrong way could end up in fireworks.“What are you pacing for?” huffed Stephen. “She’ll be fine. Although I d

095 | I guess women just ignore me now

Caleb’s POV“Rhiannon?” This time, when I said her name, it wasn’t a breath of relief. It was a question, fraught with nerves over whatever had happened since she’d left the camp with Amelia.“She’s upset,” purred Amelia. The sound of her soft, sinful voice had the tiny hairs on the back of my neck raising. She slithered onto my lap and wound her arms around my neck. “Leave her be.”Stephen and I shared a look. Yeah. It had to be bad if I was sharing looks with bloody Stephen.‘I quite like him, actually,’ said Knight, but his eyes kept dipping to Rhiannon and the closed tent. He was as distracted as I was, then.‘He’s not completely awful,’ I agreed. ‘But, more importantly, buddy, what the hell happened out there?’Knight considered it before replying. ‘Amelia seems eager to talk. Rhiannon does not.’ He whined. ‘Do you think she hurt her?’‘There’s only one way to find out,’ I said slowly, already hating myself for what I was about to do.I looped my arms around Ames’s waist and pull

096 | Taken by the wind

Caleb’s POVPanic gripped me. Its cold, unforgiving claws dragged down my spine as I stood up and started towards her tent. My eyes roved over the area frantically, searching for any sign of her.Ever since she’d been hurt, I hadn’t been able to think clearly when it came to Rhiannon. Now I’d seen her collapse, too, it was like my nervous system had been replaced by a live wire – one always a fraction of a second away from shocking me. It was too easy to picture her hurt when I'd seen it in reality so many times.My knees locked as I bent down in front of the tent she’d shared with Stephen. I scanned the snow for tracks, but fresh had fallen in the night, covering any sign of her. My heart thudded so fast it was almost painful.Knight let out a low whine. ‘I can’t smell her,’ he said.The cold claws dragging down my spine grabbed me tight. I yanked their tent open.Two sets of wolven eyes looked up at me angrily. ‘So that’s why I couldn’t smell her,’ Knight huffed, disgust prominent

097 | I had to kill her

Rhiannon’s POVTiger’s fur bristled as I said, ‘Luna Amelia told me what you did.’I’d not been able to think about anything else since. As much as the mate bond made me crave Caleb, I couldn’t see past what he’d done. And I knew, I knew, that the Luna was playing me like a fiddle.She’d picked the one song that I couldn’t evade, though. It sung to me, spun me in circles, kept me angry, kept me hateful.Because Marcella hadn’t deserved that.I added, ‘I want to hear it from you, Caleb. I want – no, I need – you to tell me what happened with Marcella.’Even in his shifted form, I recognised his frown. ‘What happened with Marcella? Rhi, isn’t it obvious? She hurt you. Fuck, she nearly killed you.’ Knight’s eyes hardened, taking on a red glow as his anger built. ‘I had to kill her.’I held his gaze defiantly. ‘No, you didn’t.’He scoffed. ‘What? This is what you’re angry with me about?’ I could see his own anger still growing; Knight was practically shaking with it. ‘You ignored me, made

098 | Landslide bring it down

Rhiannon’s POVRocks tumbled down all around us. They came too quickly for us to dart away, even in our wolf forms; they surrounded us quickly, locking us in the dark, alone together.They groaned ominously in the winter wind. The grinding and shifting of stone on stone set my teeth on edge. Tiger's paws slipped on the snow; she locked her muscles to stop herself from wobbling into the precariously balanced rocks surrounding us.“Caleb!” Amelia roared.“Rhiannon!” cried Stephen.I mindlinked Stephen. ‘We’re trapped in the rocks. Are you guys okay?’‘We’re fine,’ he replied. ‘We’ll try to get you out. What happened?’‘I’m not sure. Was it a landslide? I didn’t see what could’ve caused it…’ I trailed off. ‘It doesn’t matter,’ I went on, before he could answer. ‘We’ll try to find a way out from in here, and you look for a way to get us out.’‘We’re already on it.’‘And, Stephen?’‘Yeah?’‘Be careful.’Slants of white light fell through the gaps in the stone. That was the only light we ha

099 | Right is wrong

Rhiannon’s POV“Fuck!” Caleb grunted, slamming an arm up just in time to hold up a rock. His eyes were alight with a wild sort of panic. “That almost hit you,” he bit out.He shifted his stance, pressing both of his arms and shoulders back against the wall of rock to hold it in place. The tendons in his arms stood out and his muscles flexed. Despite the situation, my core throbbed at the hazy sight of his naked body demonstrating his raw strength.My gaze flicked past him. The offending stone was shuddering with his trembling arms, threatening to crush us both in an instant if I didn’t do something.“Shit,” I hissed, forcing the word out through chattering teeth. Cold air whipped through the cracks in the rocks.I started assessing the way the stones had fallen. Caleb strained to hold them back, but there was no way even the two of us would be able to hold them off for long. We had to think of a way out of this, not come at it with brute force.“A bit of help might be nice,” he said,

100 | Looking for Cin

Rhiannon’s POVBefore either of us could make any sense of it, Stephen and Amelia were hauling us out of the landslide. It all felt like such a heady rush that I could barely process the warm press of clothes being forced over my head and the heat of Stephen’s body as he held me up.I tried to talk, but my teeth were chattering too hard and I bit my tongue. I winced.“Hey, hey,” soothed Stephen, adding a coat over the two jumpers he’d already shoved onto me. “We need to get you warmed up.”I wasn’t about to let him dress and mollycoddle me, no matter how cold I was. I gently peeled myself out of his arms and dressed in the rest of the clothes spilling from my bag. “Thanks for getting us out,” I said eventually, twisting around to see what Caleb and Amelia were doing.They were stood a bit too close together for my liking, their foreheads touching, Amelia’s hands on Caleb’s shoulders. I ground my jaw at the sight of them. “Well, we weren’t going to leave you under there,” said Stephe
