31: Who I Should Choose

KADE'S POVI was still watching Freya when she disappeared through the classroom door.The little white flower was in her hand. She had lifted it to her face and smiled, and it had been such a small, private thing, and yet I had felt it land in my chest like a fist.She had not even seen me until she looked up. And when she did, a flicker of something passed through her face, maybe surprise, and then that careful blankness she wore around me now, the one she had not worn when we first met. She used to look at me like I was the only thing in the room. Now she looked at me like I was a problem she had not decided how to solve.And Ronan. Ronan, with his hands in his pockets, strolling off like he owned the corridor. Ronan, who knew her favourite flower.A low unfamiliar voice in my chest shifted and growled.Mine.It came up from somewhere beneath my ribs, sudden and sure, and it startled me every time. My wolf did not do this. He was calm, deliberate, well-bred. He had been raised on st

32: The Only One Who Knows

FREYA'S POVBy the end of the week, people had started avoiding me so obviously, that I would have been blind not to notice.They always kept me at arm's length, the weirdo they didn’t really want to be associated with. But now, it was sideways glances and the whispers that had followed me since the day I arrived. This was worse. This had edges. People gave me a wide berth in the corridors like I might do something to them if they got too close, and they stopped sitting beside me in the dining hall, and the whispers had stopped bothering to be quiet.Because of the courtyard. Because of the stone. Because a girl who had never shifted in her life had floated three feet off the ground and brought half a building down with her, and nobody in that school had a single sensible explanation for it.So they had found one.Witch.I heard it first in the library, hissed between two girls who thought I could not hear them. I heard it again the next day in the dining hall, louder. By Thursday it

33: Get Well Faster

FREYA'S POVThe first thing was the smell of my own room.Not the academy. Not the infirmary and its bleach. Home — my room in the west wing of the pack house, with the tall windows and the heavy curtains and the lavender worked into the linen. Woodsmoke from the fireplace that the staff always lit too high, because Kade liked it that way, and the fire was the only thing in that house that still did what he liked.I had been sick for four days.Four days of a fever that came and went like a tide, of lying on my side with the sheet pulled up to my chin, of soup going cold on the tray because the smell of it turned my stomach.The house was extremely quiet, with Kade away. He had been gone for three weeks now, on a trip he had not explained and had not invited me on.Again.I heard the soft patter of footsteps before the door opened. Small, fast, uneven. The familiar clatter of a five-year-old who had been told to walk and had decided to run.Kai.My heart almost burst at the seams, ju

34: Take The Test

FREYA’S POV"Freya!"She swept in trailing cold air and the smell of the city, her coat still on, her hair half falling out of its pins, and before I could say a single word she had crossed the room and climbed onto the bed and wrapped her arms all the way around me."You're going to get sick," I protested weakly into her shoulder."I know." she said but made no move to get down."Ivy—""Ugh, stop it." She squeezed harder. "Shut up." She smiled brightly at me and I couldn't help the small smile back I offered.And the strange thing was that it helped. Just for a moment, just for a breath, the weight on my chest lifted, and I let my head drop onto her shoulder and let her hold me the way I had not let anyone hold me in months."Come on," she said eventually, pulling back and looking at me properly. "You look awful.""Thank you." I replied with an eye roll."The bathroom. Now."She hauled me up and walked me the short distance down the hall with an arm around my waist, and I made it to

35: Presenting Before The Council

FREYA'S POVI came into school the next morning still raw.It had been there all night, sitting under everything — the little white stick, the two minutes, Ivy's face going still. Positive. And every time I thought it I felt it land somewhere new, like a bruise I kept pressing to check that it was real.I had been pregnant.And I did not know how that story ended. I did not know if the baby had been born. I did not know if the baby had lived. I did not know anything past the moment the room peeled away, and the not-knowing had been chewing at me since the second I woke up.That was what I was carrying when I walked through the gates.And then I reached my locker, and the day got worse.Someone had painted on it.WITCH, in white, in a hand that was not neat. And underneath, smaller, a second word scratched into the metal with something sharp. STAIN. And when I worked the handle and pulled the door open, salt came tumbling out of it in a little white cascade — spilled across my books,

36: I'll Go With You

FREYA’S POVThe rest of the morning was pretty uneventful.Up until the assembly announcements were made. They spoke about a lecture on the winter examinations but everyone in that hall knew why the witch rumour had suddenly appeared on the agenda, and everyone in that hall turned to look at me when Vaughn said my name.Dorian stood up and said his piece. It was short and stiff and delivered to a point somewhere above my left ear, but he said the words, and Vaughn made him say them again until he looked at me while he did it.And then it was over, and five hundred students filed out of the hall, and every single one of them gave me a circle of empty air.Not one person came close. They walked past in a curve, the same way they had in the corridor, like I might reach out and turn them into something. I heard the word under the noise. Witch. Twice. Three times.And then a hand slid into the crook of my elbow.Ivy. Of course it was Ivy. She moved through the crush of the crowd and attach

37: Where To Pick Me Up

FREYA'S POV"By the time we get back," Kade said, "everybody in this school is going to know it too."And that was when Ivy appeared.She came around the corner of the corridor at a half-run, the way she did everything — like she was always just slightly late for something more interesting and had decided to be charming about it — and she pulled up beside us with a bright breathless smile and her hand already reaching for my arm."There you are! I've been looking everywhere. I heard what happened in the council meeting, I cannot believe they let him off with a suspension, honestly, a week, that's nothing—"Then she noticed Kade, and she stopped.And then she did the thing.She stepped forward, and turned slightly, and set herself neatly into the gap between us — not in front of me, not beside me, but between, so that the line of the three of us bent around her like a stream around a stone. And her attention went straight to Kade like water finding a channel."Are you going with her? To

38: This Time Nothing Will Stop Me

FREYA’S POVI did not see Ronan all day.That was the first thing that started to worry me. Ronan was never absent. He was the kind of person who showed up to things he did not care about, on time, and sat in the back, and left the second it was over — but he showed up. And he had not been at the assembly, and he had not been at lunch, and he had not been in any of the corridors where he was usually to be found leaning against a wall with his hands in his pockets, watching the world with that flat, patient expression.By the end of the last bell I decided to go and find him.So I went to the library first, because he studied there on Tuesdays. He was not there. I checked the east courtyard, under the old oak where he sometimes sat with his notes spread out over the bench. Nothing. Then the corridor by the training yard, and the long gallery on the third floor, and the spot behind the chapel where he had taken me once to show me a nest of birds he had found.Not there. Not there. Not t

39: Tightness

RONAN’S POVI was almost at the exit when I saw the crowd.A knot of students, twenty or thirty of them, bunched up at the end of the corridor seemingly looking at something. I slowed and noticed a figure. When I saw the person on the floor with Dorian standing over them.Someone down. Someone standing over them.Bullying, I thought, and my feet were moving before I had finished the thought.It was always the same. Someone bigger standing over someone smaller, and a ring of people watching it happen and not one of them stepping in. I knew it from the inside. I had been the person on the floor for most of my childhood. Being the boy from a nameless pack didn’t earn me any favors. Without a strong last name, people saw me as an easy target.But I’d always been stronger than most even at that age. And nice I stopped thinking of the consequences and I grew enough and trained enough to become the other thing. I had made a rule for myself: if I was there, it stopped. If someone had no one,

40: The Moon’s Gift

KADE’S POVRonan’s voice made all the noise stop, it echoed so far back. Everyone stilled, like he’d pressed pause. The teacher withdrew her hand slowly and held both of them up where he could see them."Alright. Alright, we're not going to touch her. We just need to see whether she's hurt, Ronan. That's all. We need to check her over, and then we need to take her to the infirmary. Nobody is taking her anywhere. Do you understand?"He did not answer. His eyes moved over her face, down to her hands, up to her throat, and he did not let go."Ronan." She tried again, softer. "We are not taking her from you. You can walk beside her the whole way. But we have to lift her, and for that we need our hands. Do you understand?"Another growl. Shorter this time. But then, slowly, his grip shifted — one arm loosening, then the other — though he still did not move back.And then he said it."Mate."The word landed in the middle of that quiet corridor like a dropped stone.And I felt it hit me som
