CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

Liana’s POVA floorboard creaks, and my eyes jolt open.It takes me a moment to realize I’m lying on Ethan’s bed.My body heats. Before today, I’d never even been in a man’s bedchambers before—let alone fallen asleep on their soft quilt with my hair soaking their pillows. At least I had the grace to clothe myself in the tartan dress after my bath. Even if my feet are bare, and my skirts have risen to my thighs.I can smell him on the sheets, soft and masculine, and my cheeks flush.The room is dark, though a fire is crackling in the hearth, emitting a soft glow. When I glance at the narrow window, I notice the crescent moon outside. It is nighttime already.Beside the window, Ethan sifts through his wardrobe. He’s wearing his kilt, but his shirt now hangs over the arm of his chair.I bite my bottom lip.I saw him topless when he was in the fighting ring, and his hard muscle had seemed fearsome. Now, I find myself admiring his broad shoulders and the way that the muscles in his back sh

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

Liana’s POVMany of the men in this Great Hall remind me of beasts. But there’s something different about the dark-haired male who prowls toward us.It’s not just that he wears breeches instead of a kilt. It’s the calculated disinterest on his face, and the fluid way he moves.He reminds me more of a cat than a wolf.People much bigger than him watch him warily as he passes by.When he stops in front of our table, Ethan leans back in his seat, a look of dislike etched onto his face.“Brought your pet to the feast, I see?” says Blake.He’s almost as tall as Ethan, though not as muscular. He looks like he’s in his early twenties like Ethan, too. I catch his scent of shadows and pine—like a forest at night.“We need to talk,” says Ethan.A slow smile spreads across Blake’s face, and dimples puncture his cheeks. “So we do.” While Ethan’s voice is low and rough, Blake’s is smooth like silk. “After we eat.”He looks at the door on the left-hand side of the hall and Ethan inclines his head.

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE

Liana’s POVMy mouth dries.Blake’s gaze pins me to the spot, while Ethan’s thick arm holds me against his chest.I’m not used to being so close to a male. Back at the palace, I had to dance, and smile, and sweet-talk nobles at social gatherings. If any of them had held me like this, they would have been executed. This is not appropriate. And it’s certainly not the way I wanted to meet the male that Ethan said is the most dangerous wolf in the Northlands.But it is the strange heat pulsing beneath my skin that finally makes me try to shuffle out of Ethan’s grasp.“Behave,” growls Ethan, and I stiffen.He has not used this tone on me before, and panic surges through me. Have I misjudged this male?But then I remember he was going to tell Blake I was his prisoner. I do not see how that can work to our advantage, though. If Blake knows who I am, then it only makes me look weak.Before I can decide how to react, Blake takes my hand in his and presses his lips to my knuckles. I freeze.“It

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

Liana’s POVIt could be my imagination, but Ethan looks a little uncomfortable.Blake, however, is grinning. He has one ankle on his knee. Again, he reminds me of a cat. This time, a cat who has found a couple of mice to play with.Whatever this condition is, it cannot be good for me.“You know, I didn’t take you for someone who would engage in such an archaic tradition, Ethan,” says Blake.“Aye, well, it’ll keep her safe until we can get the Heart of the Moon.”“The Heart of the Moon. Yes. That’s the reason.” Blake’s eyes glint in the firelight.“What condition?” I ask.“I’ll tell you when we get upstairs.” Ethan gets up. “Come on, it’s been a long night. You must be tired.”“You really should challenge him for the title, you know,” says Blake.Ethan turns back around. “Who?” His tone is weighted.“Rob, of course.” Blake picks up his wine glass. “Who else?”“That would cause trouble, and you know it.”“You’re the rightful second in command. They’re going to think you’re weak.”“Only

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

Liana’s POVIhave been alone since my mother died.The loneliness has always spread through my body like rot. Even though I am continuously surrounded by people, it has lurked beneath my skin and threatened to consume me.This morning, when I wake up alone, it feels different.It’s an alone where I can hear my own thoughts; they mingle with the gentle patter of rain against the thin window.For once, I don’t have to perform to anyone, because there are no ladies-in-waiting ushering me out of bed. Instead, I can lie bundled up in the soft quilt in a room filled with intriguing piles of books and sweet-scented herbs.This morning, I’m not the king’s daughter, or Marius’s wife, or a princess with duties.I am just. . . me.A thrill surges through my body.There are so many things I should be worrying about—the Wolves, the inevitability of Marius’s army finding me, Blake telling the acting Wolf King who I am.And Ethan.Ethan, and whatever condition he wants me to agree to in order for me
