"Sandra..." Gali’s voice collides directly with Leori's young brother shouting from the hallway."Mommy!"Leori's brother, sharp as a hunting hound, pauses right outside the heavy oak wardrobe door. "Hm? Did I just hear a male's voice inside your sleeping quarters?"My heart hammers wildly against my ribs, pounding like a war-drum in overdrive.Even with Gali's vision obscured by my frantic hands pressed against his mouth, his heightened Alpha senses pick up the frantic, erratic pulse of my blood. He cannot fathom the sheer, unhinged panic seizing my wolf. Yet, the tighter I press my body against his in the cramped darkness, the harder my hips sink into his broad frame.Suddenly, my lower belly grinds directly against his fully hard, rigid arousal!Gali stiffens as if struck by mountain lightning, a violent, electric tremor tearing through his massive body. A low, suppressed growl escapes his throat, vibrating straight against my palm.Panicking that the sound will betray us, I rise o

"What in the Moon Mother's name is happening inside this house?" J'onn Cute's voice carries over the wooden counter, completely baffled as he dumps a sack of wild mountain roots onto the bench.I set my communication mirror face-down on the heavy pine table, my cheeks burning so hot I can barely look him in the eye. I am far too mortified to mention the violent, possessive kiss High Alpha Gali Blackmoor forced upon me inside the dark closet, so I force my voice to remain deadpan."He came to demand terms regarding little Malek Thorncrest's condition," I say, brushing a stray lock of hair behind my ear. "And then you and the boys nearly burst through the door while he was standing in my sleeping quarters."J'onn's bright eyes widen into massive saucers. "No wonder you looked like you were ready to jump out of your own skin! The young pups' tracking lesson wrapped up early today because the pack master fell ill, and I completely forgot to send a mind-link before we returned! And these w

After several agonizingly tense seconds, Sarah lets out a harsh, rasping breath, shoots me one last hateful look, and turns to bolt through the crowded archway of the bazaar.I am completely convinced that Sarah harbors a dangerous delusion about me! And worse—she seems to possess dark information regarding Sade Wintermere's vanishing!As Sarah reaches the stone gates of the trading hall, I lift my voice and call out, "Sarah! Stop!"Sarah spins around, her face twisting into a mask of unadulterated fury as she shrieks across the crowded square, "Murderer!"Dozens of pack warriors, traders, and high-born elders freeze in their tracks, their sharp wolf-ears perking up as they turn to stare at me with intense shock and curiosity.My brow furrows. I cannot let her spread such lethal lies through the territory. I sprint across the cobblestones, grabbing her wrist tightly before she can slip past the guard posts. "Hold your tongue and explain yourself! Whose blood are you accusing me of spi

Standing near the heavy stone archways of the Myhill CrestHALL trading bazaar, I forced my ragged breathing to steady, turning my back on Zevran Nightfell. My heart hammered wildly against my ribs."Zevran, please, send a high-speed messaging falcon the absolute instant your trackers uncover anything regarding Sade Wintermere," I said, my voice tight, my eyes scanning the surrounding shadows. "And remember, a broken spirit-wolf is nothing to dismiss lightly. Keep a double rotation of guards on Sarah. Do not allow her to roam the territory borders unescorted."Zevran offered a calm, reassurred nod. "The moment my scouts locate Sade's trail, you will be the first to receive the report. As for Sarah, my house guards are enforcing strict watch. Her slipping past the perimeter wards today was an unacceptable breach. I assure you, it will not happen again.""Good." I offered a curt, formal bow, conversing with Zevran for a few brief moments before turning on my heel and striding away into t

My heart gave a violent, joyful leap against my ribs! I had to discreetly pinch my own thigh beneath my leather skirt to keep from crying out in triumph, terrified that an outburst of excitement would scare the fragile prince back into his shell."He is not particularly fond of me, no," I answered honestly, offering a warm smile. "He belongs to my younger brother, Leori. When Leori first brought him home from the deep woods, I was terrified the beast might bite my family, so I tried to banish him back to the forest. I suspect the little creature still holds a deep grudge against me for that."As if understanding every word leaving my mouth, Nightshade turned his small snout away from me with a ridiculously arrogant, huffy air, the absolute picture of high-born disdain.Malek's fascination deepened visible. He stared intensely at the shadow-ferret for several long seconds. Then, slowly, cautiously, he extended his small, pale hand across the oak table, laying his palm flat in a gentle

"What do we do now, High Alpha?" Leori’s voice trembles as he stares at the glowing crystalline projection screen inside the iron war-carriage.I do not answer him. I keep my jaw clenched so hard my back teeth grind together.For four sun-cycles, I have kept my physical distance from Sandra Ashbourne, forcing myself to remain inside the shadowed confines of my carriage parked near the perimeter line. My inner wolf thrashes frantically against my ribs every single time she steps onto the property, screaming at me to drag her into my arms, to sink my fangs into her neck and mark her as mine forever. But I forced myself to stay back. I thought my distance would protect my son.Yet the moment Sandra and little Malek emerge from the grand archway of the lower keep, my eyes lock onto them, refusing to look away.Malek pauses at the bottom of the stone steps, his small face tilted up toward Sandra as if asking where her spirit intends to guide him.Sandra scans the bleak, frozen courtyard of

I pouted, offering an apologetic look as I wrung my hands. "I am so deeply sorry about what transpired at the lower field today, High Alpha. I never intended for young Malek to take a blow for me, I—""Did your spirit-senses uncover anything regarding his core?" Gali Blackmoor cut me off mid-sentence, his deep baritone slicing cleanly through my frantic rambling.I caught my breath, instantly understanding the true weight of his inquiry. Crossing the chamber, I sat on the heavy leather bench directly opposite his imposing frame, carefully offering my genuine assessment of the young prince. "His condition is far less broken than I initially feared, High Alpha. Observing his actions today, it is overwhelmingly evident that his inner wolf understands honor, morality, and deep empathy."His fierce defense of my life on the stone court was undeniably born from the quiet care I had shown him over these past few sun-cycles. I offered him warmth, and his instinct moved to shield me from harm—

I slammed the heavy timber door of The Emberfang Study behind me, my chest heaving as my furious breathing rattled in the quiet corridor.Inside the smoke-filled study, High Alpha Gali Blackmoor scowled, his dark brow furrowed as he pulled hard on his spirit-pipe. He reached for his glowing communication mirror, his clawed fingers tapping the vibrating glass."Is the young prince truly recovered from his broken wolf-core?" Elder Gideon's harsh, grating voice echoed through the mirror's speaker.Gali remained dead silent, his golden eyes fixed on the curling grey smoke rising from his pipe."Answer me, Gali!" Gideon demanded, his tone sharpening with deep suspicion. "What sudden magic occurred? How did his spirit-core mend so abruptly?"Gali snapped, his baritone voice dripping with cold annoyance. "He simply recovered.""How is that even possible within a few sun-cycles?""Why should it not be?" Gali countered flatly.Clearly infuriated by Gali's arrogance, Gideon went silent for seve

Though his harsh words still hung cold in the air, Gali’s hand on my wrist softened considerably, his large, rough fingers carefully adjusting the white linen around my cut thumb.Standing off near the hearth, Leori groaned internally at his own clumsiness. He might as well have been born a mute rogue, Leori thought to himself with a silent shake of his head. At least then his silence would make him endearing to a female!Because of his cruel "melodramatic female" remark, I refused to offer him a single word of gratitude after he finished dressing my hand.I pouted, my lips tight as I reached back toward the wooden board to resume slicing the stag meat, but before my fingers could touch the handle, little Malek darted forward and snatched the iron blade right off the block!I jumped in place, my pulse spiking. "Malek?"Without uttering a single sound, the young prince turned on his heel and held the heavy butcher's knife out toward his father.Gali frowned, his golden eyes narrowing i

My face burns with a furious, crimson heat, my pulse hammering wildly against my throat as I choke over my own tongue. "W-Who is drooling over your body?"Gali shifts his weight against the stone archway, his dark lips curving into a calm, infuriatingly arrogant smirk. "You."My eyes widen to the size of full moons, my voice rising an octave in sheer, defensive indignation. "Y-You... stop spewing absolute lies! I was doing no such thing! Is a person not allowed to glance in your general direction without you assuming they desire you? Stop flatteringly misinterpreting basic eye contact! You are entirely too full of yourself! Such an insufferable narcissist!"Refusing to yield an inch of ground to his unbearable ego, I huff loudly and whip around toward the timber counter, aggressively grabbing the wooden bowl to start mashing the mountain herb sauce. My heart hammers against my ribs like a trapped bird.Gali merely pursed his dark lips, rolling his golden eyes at my dramatic outburst.
