“Have them executed,” Aiden spoke and just like that, the topic was closed. My heart skipped hearing him order their execution so I instinctively took a step forward. “What — no.” I took a step forward before I’d fully decided to. “I don’t want them killed.” I uttered before it was too late. Nathan looked at me with the expression of someone recalibrating. “They disobeyed a direct order from the Alpha, they can’t be trusted anymore, hence they either get killed, locked up or banished…that is what the pack laws says. Although I wouldn’t suggest having them killed. Banishing them will suffice.” “No.” I shook my head. “Not that either. Banishment is the same as a death sentence and you know it.” I knew exactly what it felt like to be labeled rogue. To lose pack backing overnight. To be alone in a world that treated unaffiliated wolves like open targets. Fiona and Camero had wanted to hurt me badly — but so had most of this pack, and their reason was my background not my character.

I exhaled slowly and squeezed my fingers, after I had calmed it down a bit I reached for my wine glass. From the edge of the room I heard Melissa's heartbeat — she had been holding it controlled since Felicity stood up and now it was coming back down. She had wanted to intervene but she had known she couldn't. The conflict of that was audible in her pulse and I filed it without fully understanding why it mattered yet. "Felicity," Hale said, studying his wine glass with the expression of someone choosing words carefully, "the last time you threatened someone at a dinner table you broke four chairs and Nathan had to apologize to three separate packs." A pause. "Just — context." "Those packs deserved it," Felicity said, stabbing something on her plate. "Two of them probably did," Hale agreed. "I'm just saying… still you didn’t have to go overboard and threaten the girl intensively. moreover " He looked at Nathan. “Dylan is never here,” Hale said, diplomatically. “But Nathan it doe

The silence that followed was a dangerous kind of silence.And I could feel it.It was definitely not the silence of people who had nothing to say. The silence of people who had too much and were choosing where to start.Hale’s smile was gone. That was the tell — Hale’s smile disappearing was the emotional equivalent of anyone else overturning the table. It happened fast and completely and left his face looking like a different person’s.Felicity’s deadly stare at me was getting so intense I was getting myself prepared in case she attacks.“Aiden…what did you just say? Did I just hear you call her your mate?” Felicity's eyes finally let me and went back to Aiden who had his eyes closed as he bit down on his teeth.I still couldn’t get why Aiden was doing this to me. The last time he revealed my full identity to Zyla she had attacked me in a fit of rage and now this time he was doing the same thing in a room full of dangerous people who I stood no chance against.Especially the living

If I told you I had no idea what was happening, you probably wouldn’t believe me.There was one only person in this hall that I was at least close to, oh maybe two if we count Nathan.Funny enough, three strangers had saved my life here. Aiden saved me from severally if I was to be totally honest.Bringing me into his pack, getting me treated by Melissa and Nathan saved me indirectly from Josh in a way or two.But despite being saved so many times I feel like I could die from a slight mistake. They were all so powerful that I was feeling completely helpless.I looked at Aiden across the room but he was looking at the table and his face was strange somehow.Through the mate bond I felt something that might have been guilt or might have been calculation — I couldn’t tell the difference with him yet and I was starting to think that was deliberate on his part.He was a person that was hard to predict and hard to read.Fuck it, I was doing it again.Relying on people to help me each fuckin

“I was occupied,” Finn said, and something moved across his expression briefly — not guilt, but something adjacent to it that he contained immediately. “The Hunters had located me. The situation required immediate and complete resolution.”“You… could have left and come still. No one could stop. You chose to,” Nathan said.“Any communication or movement would have given them my location, I had to protect my city” Finn said. “I could not.”“You are an arsehole.”“Watch your words Nathan.” Finn’s voice dropped into something that had no warmth in it. “I will not pardon the next insult.”I looked at Nathan.This was the first time I had seen him genuinely spark. Not the controlled sharpness he usually carried — something real and old and still bleeding slightly underneath the surface of it.I filed that.“Zyla almost died,” Nathan said, and his hand came down flat on the table. “Just from me alone trying to hold Aiden back during the full moon. A curse he is carrying because of your atro
