WINTERI can't stop thinking about what Loran told me yesterday. He said what Valtor did to Alaric was only the beginning, that he would go much further if he had to, that he’d do whatever it took to protect me even from his own people. I didn’t want to find out just how far he would go. I didn’t want his followers to turn against him, didn’t want them to hate him because of me.In the evening, I took a long bath, but it did nothing to quiet the chaos in my thoughts. I tried to get some information from the maids about what had happened to Freya, but none of them spoke. I also hadn’t seen Freya since yesterday morning. That woman just vanished without a trace.Maybe I should ask Valtor directly, I thought. He was supposed to be in his study right now, meeting with his council.But when I stepped out of the bathroom, I froze. Valtor was already there, seated at the edge of the bed, his gaze fixed on me.Then in that deep, commanding voice, he said,“Come here, kitten.”My feet moved on

WINTER“Shut up,” she rasped, her voice breaking between sobs before she threw her arms around me.My mother’s embrace this time was the tightest I had ever felt. Her body trembled, muscles loosening as though the tension were finally giving way. And I didn’t need to see her face to know she was crying; I could feel it in the way her chest shuddered against mine. Guilt twisted deep in my stomach for causing her so much disappointment and for returning to her like this. “I’m so sorry-"“Shut up, you stupid girl,” she interrupted, her words sharp but her voice trembling. “Just shut up. I need to make sure it’s really you, that you’re alive, not… not like what Crystal said. That you’re still whole. Still alright.”At that, I clung to her even tighter.For a long moment, we stayed like that, locked together in silence. There was so much I wanted to tell her, but I held back, waiting. When we finally pulled apart, her eyes were softer this time.“I thought you were mad at me,” I began qu

CRYSTALKallias had only been sweet when he asked me to write and send that letter. After that, from the moment we arrived here, he slipped right back into being a complete bastard. Most of his hours were spent with Callum and his insufferable son, Damien. Even after I heard that the Alpha of Winterwood Pack had already rejected the offer, Kallias kept pressing, trying to persuade him anyway.He introduced me to the Winter family as his new Luna then promptly ignored me, as if I were nothing more than a decorative afterthought. But I didn't give a fuck anymore. I had two far more entertaining things to occupy my time.First, watching Helena fall apart after she finds out what happened to her precious daughter. And second, hearing the very same pack members, including everyone in this house, who once worshipped Winter and sneered at me now singing a very different tune. There’s no pleasure quite like returning to the place where you were once mistreated, only to stand tall, head held hi

VALTORSeeing my silence, Loran frowned slightly before asking,“You’re alright?”“Yeah. Just thinking about your suggestion. It shouldn’t be too hard, I know Winter’s mother already likes me.”His brow arched, disbelief flickering in his eyes.“Let’s go," I said quickly before he could press for more.As we walked on, the crowd thickened around us, the air buzzing with murmurs and shifting glances. I could hear some of what they said“What was Winter thinking bringing him here?” Someone hissed under their breath.“Exactly. Not just an enemy but the king of our enemies. Has she lost not only her mate but her mind as well?”“Since when did Winter become so stupid? I guess feeling makes her completely brainless."Hearing them speak of Winter like that lit a fuse inside me. I spun toward the voice, eyes darting through the throng to find its source. But everyone’s faces were tight with fear and folded inward, making pinpointing the speaker impossible. My wolf bristled hearing our mate b

WINTERBe clingy and affectionate. Flaunt my intimacy with Valtor in front of Crystal. Make her jealous, make her burn with envy. That was my mother’s idea from the very beginning.Actually, I no longer cared about Crystal. I didn’t crave her approval or want to prove anything to her anymore.Still, I couldn’t deny the small thrill that sparked inside me when I caught the flicker of emotion in her eyes. Parading my intimacy with Valtor came much more easily too. I enjoyed it more than I wanted to admit. “You’re blessed with the gift of turning anything into something delicious. What else are you good at?” he asked teasingly, the sound of it made me laugh softly.He had been frowning just moments before, puzzled by my sudden display, but I was glad he caught on so quickly. He understood the act perfectly and played his part without hesitation.“Thank you,” I replied with a curtsy, “I’m flattered. You could dine on the finest dishes from the best cooks in the realm and yet you still cho
