Bound to the Alpha Twins Utterly Alone
"Will I survive?"Silence swallowed the Council chamber. I stood right in the centre, heart hammering against my ribs, my dress suddenly too tight across my chest.Darkholme finally broke the quiet. "The GreeveWood does not guarantee survival, child. Whether you live through it depends on what truth you carry inside you - and whether you are strong enough to face it."Elder Maris sat motionless to his right, her presence quiet in the room. She said nothing, even when I met her gaze squarely, as if she could see straight through skin and bone.Darkholme reclined into his chair, fingers steepled, a faint smirk playing at the corner of his mouth.At the head of the table, King Aldric and Queen Selene. Their faces revealed nothing.My chest tightened until breathing hurt. The words rose before I could stop them, raw in their wake."You all are trying to kill me, aren't you?"The chamber froze."That is not how you comport yourself before the Council, girl. Watch your tongue," sneered Elder
Bound to the Alpha Twins Like You Belong
A hand shook my shoulder. I tried to ignore it thinking it was just my mind but it continued insistently. Then I realized someone was actually touching me.I jerked awake, my heart hammering. The room was dark, as the fire in the hearth had burnt out. A figure loomed over me, silhouetted against the dim glow of a single lit candle."You have to get up."I blinked, trying to focus. "Gertha, is that you?""Forgive me, my lady, but the Council... The Council requests your presence."I sat up, rubbing my eyes. "What time is it?""Dawn is still an hour or two away."I stared at her. "The sun has not even risen.""I know." Her voice was flat, unapologetic. "They want you there before the court gathers."I groaned and swung my legs over the side of the bed. The floor was eerily cold and a shiver escaped my lips at the unexpected change in temperature. "They could not have waited until a reasonable hour?"Gertha was already moving toward the wardrobe. "We have just a few minutes, my lady. No
Bound to the Alpha Twins No Longer An Enemy
"That's enough for today."My fingers tightened around the sword more. "I can keep going.""I know you can." He stepped closer. "But you don't need to prove anything right now."I looked at him. "What makes you think I want to prove something?"He did not answer.He reached out and took the sword from my hand, not holding my gaze. He looked at the blade in his hands, then at me."Same time tomorrow," he said.I nodded.He hesitated. I saw it – a small pause, like he was deciding whether to say something or not."Lucian didn't mean what he said," he finally said. "That night in the corridor. Whatever he told you – he did not mean it."I looked at him. "How do you know?""Because I know him." He said it like it cost him something. "He says things he does not mean when he's afraid.""What is he afraid of?"His jaw tightened. His eyes flickered away from mine."Same time," he said again. Then he turned and walked toward the racks of wooden swords, his back to me.I watched him go. The bond
Bound to the Alpha Twins The Weight of a Blade
The sword was heavier than I expected and its grip was worn smooth from use. I turned it over in my hand, testing the weight.I had never held one like this before; most definitely not with intention.I swung it. The motion was clumsy and unbalanced. The blade cut through the air with no precision, no purpose. I tried again, better this time but still wrong.I did not know why I was doing this. This was not in my schedule for the day, if I had one.I had been walking through the halls, restless, trying to outrun the silence in my room. But my feet had carried me past the gates, past the racks of wooden swords, past the straw dummies that had been stabbed and slashed a thousand times before.Luckily, the training yard was empty when I arrived.Maybe I wanted to feel capable. Maybe I wanted to feel like I could fight back against something. The Council. The fear that had been pressing on my chest since I arrived.I swung again repeatedly, and although my arm ached, I did not stop."You'r
Bound to the Alpha Twins In Blood and Bones
He had not told anyone he was coming. He had not even told himself he would return. But the girl had lodged herself firmly in his mind, and he could not shake her loose and that unsettled him.The sage studied him with eyes that held no judgment. She had seen worse men than him sit in that chair. She had also seen better ones leave and never come back."You came back," she said. It was not a question."I did." He answered regardless.She leaned back, her fingers pattering softly against the wood of the table. "The spell is finished. The blood has spoken.""What does it say to us?"She did not answer immediately. She let the silence abide, let him feel the weight of what he was about to hear. Then she said, "She carries something that has not walked this earth in centuries. Something shifters do not behold often enough to be fully understood and it is buried."Obelix's hands curled on his knees. "Buried where?""In her blood. In her bones. In parts of her being and soul." She tilted he
Bound to the Alpha Twins The Carriage Rolls
The wheels turned and dust rose from the gravel. The carriage moved slowly at first, then faster, pulling away from the palace gates.I stood at the edge of the courtyard and watched it go.Pilar's face was in the window. She was not waving. She never waved. She just looked at me through the glass until the carriage turned and she was gone.I did not move.The courtyard was almost empty. I stood alone, except for Gertha's ever-persistent presence, the gravel crunching under my boots. I thought about the morning that had led up to this moment.~`~`~`~`~`~`|~`~`~`~`~`~`|~`~`~`~`~`~`Pilar had packed her bag before the sun was fully up. I had woken to the sound of fabric rustling, of her moving through the room."You're up," she said, not looking at me.I sat up. "You're leaving.""The Queen's carriage is already waiting. She does not like to be kept waiting. I don't need to be on her bad side."She patted her bag that lay on the floor.I swung my legs over the side of the bed. The floor
Bound to the Alpha Twins The First
The morning came too quickly.I stood in the grand hall of the palace, dressed in the pale blue gown Gertha had laid out for me. The fabric was soft, the sleeves long, the hem brushing the floor.My hair had been pinned with care, a few loose strands left to soften the severity. I kept my hands cla
Bound to the Alpha Twins Hell Would Break Loose
It was dark and the moon was high in the sky when Kaelan returned. Silver Fang was asleep.He had been at the northern border since midday, inspecting the watchtowers and listening to reports of rogues testing the perimeter. Nothing had happened, nothing ever happened, however, his father insisted o
Bound to the Alpha Twins May the Gods Protect You
Pilar's shop came into view. I stepped inside.A beautiful blonde woman was trying on a blue dress that matched her eyes. Pilar adjusted the hem, her back to me. A few other customers browsed the racks. Two workers moved between them, helping.Before I could say anything, a short woman with a pinch
Bound to the Alpha Twins Act Like It
***THIRD POV*** The door shut behind her with a quiet click. Kaelan did not move. Silence filled the room, thick and suffocating, as though the space itself was holding its breath. The two alpha brothers had numerous thoughts running through their minds. Thoughts so heavy they tainted the air be
