Hundred and Forty One

SEANI had to nail these corrupt bastards to the wall tonight, or my pack would burn to ash by sunrise. Dozens of regional delegates sat around the massive circular amphitheater. Cold air bit at the exposed skin of my torn shoulder.Aris leaned forward, gripping his wooden gavel."You stand accused of treason, Alpha." Aris banged the wooden mallet against his podium. "You slaughtered a Vanguard peacekeeper. You harbor a diseased human. Your territory is officially forfeit.""Shut your mouth and look at the screen." Shoving the briefcase open, I pulled out the silver tablet Tracy had risked her life to encode.I slammed the device onto the central projector interface.Massive holographic screens flared to life above the council floor. Columns of green code, bank routing numbers, and decoded audio files completely illuminated the dark hall.Chandler Gaunt sat in the front row. His smug, arrogant smile vanished instantly."This is manipulated data!" Chandler leaped out of his velvet cha

TRACYSparks popped from the overheating external drive, stinging my bare forearm.I yanked my hand back, cursing under my breath. Fixing this corrupted data meant picking through millions of lines of digital garbage. Gray morning light filtered through the rain-streaked bedroom windows of the packhouse, offering zero comfort against the stifling August humidity. My head pounded. The traditional suppressant Dr. Evans pumped into my veins kept the Lunar Decay at bay, but it left a bitter, metallic taste coating my tongue.I had to compile this recovered AI data today. If I didn't build a stable diagnostic model from these fragments, Chandler’s sabotage would permanently kill my research.Grabbing my phone, I hit Sam’s speed dial."Tell me you found a shortcut," Sam answered, his voice thick with sleep and stress. Keystrokes clattered loudly in the background."There are no shortcuts, Sam." Dragging a hand down my tired face, I stared at the frozen progress bar on my laptop. "The neural

TRACYGreen text scrolled furiously across the dual monitors, reflecting off the dark wood of my desk.Finding the broken logic loop inside this diagnostic model meant staring at the screen until my eyes practically bled. Outside the reinforced packhouse windows, the August wind howled through the thick mountain pines, rattling the heavy glass panes in their frames. Cold air blasted from the ceiling vents, turning the bedroom into a freezing icebox. A dull, rhythmic ache pulsed behind my temples.I had to compile this patch tonight. If I didn't lock the neural network right now, Chandler's ghost virus would shred the remaining files into completely useless digital dust.Tapping the final semicolon, my finger hovered nervously over the enter key.Hitting it hard, the progress bar flashed onto the screen.Ten percent. Fifty percent. Ninety.The bar hit one hundred percent. A bright, solid blue confirmation box flared to life."Got you."Snatching my phone from the cluttered desk, I hit

TRACYI grabbed a bottle of lavender and cedar body wash from the glass shelf."Sit on the edge," I pointed to the side of the tub.He obeyed, his heavy boots resting on the bath mat. The thick steam began to rise, curling around us and warming the freezing air.Pouring a small amount of the soap onto a wet washcloth, I stepped right between his spread knees."People are trying to pull us apart, Tracy," Sean whispered, staring blindly at the water filling the tub. "The High Council. Chandler. Now my own father. They look at you, and they only see a weakness they can exploit.""They don't know me." Pressing the warm, soapy cloth against his uninjured shoulder, I began to scrub the dried dirt and tension from his skin. "And they don't know you.""I won't let them touch you." He leaned his head forward, resting his forehead directly against my stomach. "I will burn this entire mountain down to the bedrock before I let anyone take you out of my house.""Nobody is taking me anywhere."Runn

Hundred and Forty Five

TRACYThe silver flash drive inside my pocket felt heavier than a loaded gun.Getting these medical files out of the downtown shifter clinic meant dragging myself beyond the safe, reinforced iron gates of the Northern Peak packhouse. I had to secure these real-world blood parameters. Without the raw partnership data sitting in my pocket, the artificial intelligence model lacked the necessary genetic variables to function."Keep your head down, Luna," Marcus grunted, stepping closely behind my right shoulder.Scanning the rows of parked cars, the massive Beta kept his hand resting casually over his concealed waist holster. His dark eyes darted toward every passing shadow. Surviving this quick supply run required absolute paranoia. Chandler’s remaining loyalists were desperately looking for an easy target, and my human frailty made me the most obvious weak link."The SUV is right there," I murmured, pointing toward the black armored truck idling near the curb."Pace yourself." Marcus m

TRACY"Crash again, you stubborn piece of trash."My fingers paused over the glowing keyboard. Another red error message blinked across the monitor, mocking my last three hours of work. Rubbing my burning eyes, I pushed the laptop away and let my head drop back against the leather office chair.The packhouse library offered a quiet sanctuary, but right now, the silence felt suffocating. Floor-to-ceiling bookshelves lined the room, smelling of old paper and dust. Rain tapped a steady, annoying rhythm against the tall glass windows.Finding the broken link in the code was proving impossible.The diagnostic artificial intelligence ran smoothly whenever I tested human medical baselines. But the second I injected the Lycan genetic variables into the system, the whole program imploded. Shifter cellular regeneration moved too fast. The algorithm could not predict the healing factor, causing a massive data overload that froze the servers every single time."Think," I muttered to myself, grabb

Hundred and Forty Seven

TRACY"I bring loyalty.""Loyalty does not buy silver-plated weapons."Turning back around, Arthur reached inside the breast pocket of his tailored suit jacket. He pulled out a crisp, rectangular slip of paper.Walking back to the desk, he placed it face up on the wood. He slid it across the smooth surface until it stopped inches from my keyboard.I looked down.It was a check drawn from a private offshore bank. Arthur’s elegant, sweeping signature sat on the bottom line. The payee line was blank. The amount box was also completely empty."What is this?" I asked, staring at the paper."That is your exit ticket." Arthur sat back down in the velvet chair, lacing his fingers together. "Write down any number you want. Five million. Ten million. Twenty. My personal accounts have enough liquid capital to cover it. Take the money, pack your bags, and disappear before the sun comes up.""You are trying to pay me off." A dark, bitter laugh scraped out of my chest."I am offering you a golden p

Hundred and Forty Eight

SEAN"Who did this to you?"Stepping into the dim library, the sharp scent of raw fear hit my nose before the oak door even clicked shut. Tracy sat frozen behind her desk. Her knuckles gripped the armrests so hard her skin stretched white over the bone.Looking down, my eyes caught a scattering of shredded paper covering the Persian rug."Tracy." Closing the distance in three fast strides, I knelt beside her chair. "Look at me. Who was in this room?"She blinked, slowly turning her head. Her dark eyes looked wide and hollow, still trapped in whatever nightmare just happened. Reaching out, I placed my hands gently over hers. Her skin felt like ice."He bypassed the security," she whispered, her voice trembling slightly. "He had override codes.""Give me a name." My Lycan pushed against my ribs, recognizing the threat to our mate."Arthur."Hearing my father's name felt like swallowing a mouthful of broken glass. Taking a slow, deep breath, I forced my claws to stay retracted. If I lost

TRACY"You left the front doors wide open."Standing at the top of the grand staircase, cold wind whipped past my ankles. Rain blew into the packhouse foyer, soaking the expensive rugs. Sean just stood there on the marble floor. Rainwater dripped from his dark hair, sliding down his jaw and soaking his shirt. He didn't move to close the doors. He just stared at the empty space in front of him, looking like a man who had just hollowed out his own chest.Hurrying down the steps, my bare feet slapped softly against the stone.Before he could even register my presence, I reached past him and shoved the heavy oak doors shut. The howling storm vanished, leaving a ringing silence in the foyer.Turning back to him, the raw devastation in his silver eyes made my breath catch. He didn't look angry anymore. The lethal, roaring Alpha who stormed out of the library an hour ago was gone. In his place stood a son mourning a father who was still alive.Reaching out, my fingers wrapped gently around h

TRACY"Run the simulation again. We missed something."Sam groaned loudly through the laptop speakers. "Tracy, it is three in the morning. The offshore servers need a cooling cycle, and you need actual sleep.""We do not have time for a cooling cycle." Leaning closer to the glowing monitor, I dragged a tired hand down my face. "Geneva is exactly three weeks away. If this rendering bug triggers during the live presentation, the international medical board will laugh us off the stage.""They won't laugh." Sam sighed, the sound of rapid typing echoing over the line. "But the data bottleneck is real. The human baselines integrate fine, but the shifter cellular regeneration code creates a massive feedback loop. The system overloads trying to predict how fast a Lycan heals.""Then we rewrite the prediction parameters."Six months had vanished into a blur of blue light and endless coffee. Sitting in my new apartment just down the road from the packhouse, my desk looked like a war zone. Empty
