Chapter 31

VULCAN He'd been gone for four minutes.He'd used the bathroom, splashed water on his face, and came back. He'd left the wine untouched because he perceived it was mixed with something else. He'd planned to have it removed before Paula woke up, but she just had to drink it. He looked at her cheeks and they were flushed deep pink, her auburn eyes glassy and slightly unfocused, her red curls tumbling everywhere from sleep.So it was an aphrodisiac. He said to himself. Vulcan wondered who would dare put an aphrodisiac in his drink and what they had probably planned. He was going to deal with that. Thoroughly. Later.Right now, Paula was listing slightly to the left.She leaned forward and pressed her nose against his collarbone, her curls spilling over his chest, and inhaled slowly. Then she moaned softly against his neck. The sound hit him somewhere behind his sternum like a closed fist. She was so small, she was like half of his body. She struggled to look at him, blinking her aph

Chapter 32

VULCAN“Your grace.” Two guards on watch bowed at the same time as he walked past them. He ignored them, just as he did to the remaining guards who greeted him.The corridor to the council hall was quiet at this hour. Vulcan walked it alone, his footsteps were a bit hurried and his hands clasped behind his back. The security lights along the wall threw long shadows ahead of him. He couldn’t stop thinking of who could have dared to put an aphrodisiac in his drink. The thought ate him up. He needed to make an interrogation immediately before the culprit escaped or attempted again. Vulcan reaches his pocket for his phone, but remembers that he had turned it off after Liam’s call earlier. He cursed slowly under his breath.Will you ever use our mindlink? Other wolves use theirs. Dak broke the silence in his head.He'd been avoiding the mind link for as long as he’d been alive and even more so now because he didn’t want to give Paula the benefit of communicating with him that way. It wa

Chapter 33

MAEVEThe maid wouldn't stop apologizing.She sat in the passenger seat of Maeve's car, hands twisted together in her lap, her voice coming out in broken, stuttering fragments that were doing nothing except making Maeve's headache worse."I… I swear, Gamma, I had gone back to retrieve the glass hoping he had already drunk it, just like you said, but when I got there the Luna was…. she was already drinking from it and I couldn't…. I didn't know how to…"Maeve's fist connected with the steering wheel.The maid flinched so hard she hit the window. "Gamma, I'm so sorry, I…""Get. Out."The maid scrambled for the door handle and was gone within seconds, her footsteps disappearing fast into the dark.Maeve sat alone in the car with both hands on the wheel and stared through the windshield at the iron gates of her father's mini estate.She'd grown up behind those gates. Learned to walk on that lawn, which her father tended with an obsessive personal attention that had always struck her as th

Chapter 34

OLIVIASunlight hit her face before her eyes opened.She turned her head slowly, blinking against it. The room came into focus in pieces. Dark walls, high ceiling, the wide balcony glass flooding the room with pale morning light.Vulcan's room.She turned to the other side of the bed instinctively and it was empty.The sheets on his side were slightly disturbed, the pillow carrying the faint impression of someone who had slept there and left early. She stared at it for a moment, then exhaled and let herself fall back against her own pillow.Her head was splitting. A deep, persistent throb behind her eyes that made the morning light feel aggressive and personal. She pressed her fingers against her temple and tried to piece together the night before.The hospital. Being moved. The wine.Vulcan's chest.Her face went immediately hot and she pulled the sheets over her face.She squeezed her eyes shut and tried to pull more of what she may have said? What had she done? She tried hard, but

Chapter 35

MAEVEThe room at Dark Hall was exactly how she'd left it.Dim, quiet, smelling faintly of candle wax and cedar. The curtains were drawn against the morning light, a single bedstand lamp was on the table in the corner. Cedric stood near the window with his arms crossed, his broad frame casting a long shadow across the floor.He looked up when she walked in."What's the plan?" he asked.Maeve dropped into the chair at the table and crossed one leg over the other. She'd changed out of last night's clothes into black fitted trousers and a dark jacket, her short hair pushed back, her face stripped of everything except her cold, focused expression she usually wore."The assassin from last night," she said. "Call them back."Cedric frowned. "You want to cancel?""I want to call them back," she said slowly. "There's a difference." She leaned forward and pressed her elbows into the table. "I know Vulcan. I've known him since we were children. When something gets past his guard, when someone g

OLIVIAThe bracelet was back where it belonged. She always kept it hidden underneath her clothes, away from prying eyes, but still close to her. Olivia sat at the table by the window, turning it slowly between her fingers, the small yin pendant catching the afternoon light. Her father's pendant. The only piece of him she had left in this place.She wasn't letting it out of her sight again.The room was quiet. Vulcan hadn't come back since morning. She'd bathed, dressed herself in one of the pale blue dresses from the wardrobe, and had been sitting here for the past hour trying to figure out how to get through a mating ceremony tonight with her identity still intact and her family still alive.The door opened.A guard stepped inside, bowed, and held out a folded piece of paper. "From the Alpha, my lady."Olivia took it and waited until he left before opening it.The handwriting was clean and precise.The child, Mae, has suffered an allergic reaction. She has been taken back into the I

Chapter 37

VULCANThe tension in the Alpha’s office was thick enough to cut with a knife. Vulcan stood by the heavy oak desk, his jaw clenched tightly, his broad chest rising and falling with heavy, angry breaths. Liam was pacing back and forth on the plush rug.For hours, they had been grilling every single maid and butler who had served in Vulcan’s chambers the night before. Someone had slipped a strong aphrodisiac into his glass, and the culprit was still loose.Liam’s phone pinged and he looked at it. "We found something," Liam said, stopping his pace. "One of the kitchen servers, a girl named Nina, didn't show up for her shift today. Her quarters are completely empty."Vulcan’s dark eyes flashed with cold fury. He slammed his fist down on the desk, making the wooden surface crack. "Seal the borders. No one enters, and absolutely no one leaves until she is dragged back here.""I'll notify the guard patrols immediately," Liam nodded, quickly sending out the order.Despite the quick action, a

Chapter 38

OLIVIAThe world was a blurry, vibrating mess. Olivia slowly stirred awake, her eyelids feeling like lead. The first thing she noticed was the deep, rhythmic rumble of a car engine beneath her. The vehicle was moving fast. A sharp, freezing breeze slammed against her aching, bruised skin, telling her that the car windows were rolled completely down.Panic flared in her chest, waking her up instantly. She didn't look at her abductors. She didn't give them a single warning.Yara! Olivia screamed internally to her wolf.In a fraction of a second, bones cracked and reshaped. Without a sound, Olivia shifted into her sleek, wolf form and leaped straight out of the open car window, crashing hard onto the gravel road."She’s escaping! Shoot her!" a man roared from inside the vehicle.The car screeched to a halt. The car doors flew open, and three men pulled out heavy, silver-loaded handguns. Heavy gunfire shattered the silence of the night. Bang! Bang! Bang!Yara sprinted as fast as her paw

Chapter 39

KIERAN He took one step back as the shift began.The red wolf that emerged where Paula had been standing made the entire crowd go still. Even Kieran, who prided himself on reacting to nothing visibly, felt his breath catch.The wolf was small and almost delicate in frame as any she wolf, but the color. Deep, vivid red that didn't just catch the moonlight but seemed to generate its own. Every strand of fur glowed like embers banked under glass, pulsing softly with each breath she took. Her amber eyes swept the crowd once and then found Vulcan's wolf without searching.Like she already knew exactly where he was.A red wolf. Kieran hadn't seen one in his lifetime. Most people hadn't. They appeared in old texts, in pack history records, in the kind of legends elders told children. They were supposed to represent something ancient and rare, a wolf tied directly to the bloodmoon lineage.He filed that away and kept his face neutral.Vulcan's wolf was already shifted beside her. Enormous, t

Chapter 40

MAEVEThe crowd around her was buzzing.People pressed forward slightly, craning to see, and the floating lamps along the lake path threw warm gold light across every face.Maeve stood perfectly still in the middle of it and felt nothing but rage.She didn't look at her father. She didn't need to. She could feel his eyes from where the elders stood in their formal robes in a neat cluster near the water's edge. She could feel his disappointment crawl all over her skin. She'd been feeling it since Paula came here.So she let her eyes drift away from him instead.Lady Anna stood slightly apart from the main crowd, her golden hair pinned back, her emerald dress catching the torchlight. She should have looked disgusted, or at minimum resigned. But she didn't look like any of those things.She was staring at Paula.Not with the cold assessment of a woman sizing up her son's forced Luna. Not with grief or resentment or the barely-contained fury that Maeve would have expected from a mother
