THIRD PERSON’s POV The call connected."What do you want?" Liam asked. His voice sounded raspy and tired over the speaker."We have a problem," Aiden said. He stopped pacing near the window. "The witch needs three days. I have to keep the girl hidden for seventy-two hours before the ritual works.""That sounds like a personal problem," Liam replied coldly. "Why are you calling me?""I need you to launch another decoy," Aiden demanded. "Pay your mercenaries to stage a shootout on the eastern border. Do anything. Just pull Kai's attention away from Pine Ridge until the spell is complete.""Are you deaf?" Liam let out a harsh, painful laugh. "Our collaboration is over, Aiden. I did exactly what I promised. I got the girl out of the castle. I delivered her to your bunker. I am not putting my hands into this mess again.""We had a deal!" Aiden yelled into the phone. "You cannot just back out now. If Kai catches me, he will find out you orchestrated the High Council hack. I will give him y

THE SECOND DAY

THE SECOND DAYCold water was dripping steadily from the cracked concrete ceiling.It was the second day of the abduction. Nora lay completely still on the freezing floor of the underground bunker. Absolute darkness swallowed the room. Her muscles ached violently from the damp chill, and her wrists throbbed against the thick plastic zip ties. She was shivering uncontrollably while she listened to the muffled sounds of boots pacing in the hallway outside.Suddenly, heavy iron gears ground together.The thick steel door screeched loudly as it swung open, and harsh, blinding yellow light flooded the tiny cell. Nora squeezed her eyes shut. She forced herself to sit up and pushed her back against the damp concrete wall.Garrick stepped into the room.The massive mercenary was no longer wearing his black ski mask. His face was covered in ugly, jagged scars, and his dark eyes held absolutely no mercy. Two heavily armed guards walked in right behind him."Good morning, Queen," Garrick sneered

THIRD PERSON’s POV The heavy door creaked and swung open a few inches. A sliver of bright, artificial light sliced into the dark cell.Nora peeked through the gap. The long, damp hallway was completely empty. Rusted pipes lined the concrete ceiling, and flickering fluorescent bulbs cast harsh shadows against the walls. The mercenaries were gone. They were rushing to secure the swamp entrance.Nora slipped through the opening.She did not know the layout of the underground bunker. She just knew she had to go in the opposite direction of the guards. She started running down the dark, narrow corridor.Her heavy boots slapped quietly against the wet concrete. She kept her back close to the wall.While she was navigating a sharp turn in the hallway, a blaring, high-pitched alarm suddenly erupted from the ceiling speakers. Flashing red lights bathed the bunker in a frantic, bloody glow.*"The prisoner is out!"* a voice screamed over the intercom. *"Lock down the north stairwell! Do not let

Miserable Chill

THIRD PERSON’s POV Freezing rain was lashing against the slate roof of the Pine Ridge armory.Halil lay completely flat against the cold stone. Water soaked through his dark tactical gear. He ignored the miserable chill. He kept his sniper scope trained directly on the massive glass windows of the main pack house. Down in the muddy courtyard, southern guards were patrolling the perimeter in pairs. They held their rifles tight against their chests, completely unaware that a northern King was already inside their walls.A tiny earpiece buzzed softly in his right ear."Give me a status update," Kai demanded over the encrypted frequency. His brother's voice sounded like crushing rocks. "Did you find her?""Negative," Halil whispered into his collar mic. "I breached the southern fence twenty minutes ago. I am currently monitoring Aiden’s private office from a high vantage point.""Is she inside the house?""I do not see her," Halil replied. He adjusted the thermal imaging on his scope. "
