Alpha Rian stood at the base of the stairs, hands clasped behind his back, posture relaxed but unmistakably commanding. Tall, broad-shouldered, with silver threading through dark hair that only added to his authority. I could see River in the set of his jaw, Cade in the steadiness of his stance.

Beside him, Luna Elizabeth radiated warmth—blonde, elegant, with eyes that saw everything and judged nothing. Their mother.

I descended the stairs with Cade on my left, River on my right. A united front

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    Controlled Demolition

    The call about Josylyn came at 3 a.m., four days into the operation, and it could not have picked a worse — or better — time."She's in labor." Elara's voice was tight over comms; Moss Thorn pack house was loud and chaotic behind her. "Full labor, Laney. Marc's with her, the birth team's fifteen minutes out, and I don't know what to do with my hands.""Where's Sirus?""Sitting on the kitchen counter eating crackers like it's a Tuesday afternoon." A short, disbelieving laugh escaped her. "Laney, he's five, and he is currently the calmest person in this house. He told Marc to stop pacing because it was — and I quote — 'not helping anybody.'"That tracked. Sirus had been through more in five years than most wolves saw in fifty, and somewhere along the way he'd come out the other side of it with a stillness that unsettled grown warriors. Nothing rattled that kid. Nothing was allowed to.Fifteen minutes was a lifetime when you were also running the biggest legal takedown in a decade, and I

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    THE TERMS

    With Voss gone, it was Josiah's turn to answer.He didn't get to walk away clean the way he'd planned it — sign a few papers, disappear north, let the council forget his name in a decade the way councils forget things when there's no body and no headline. Not after ten years of running the largest smuggling corridor in shifter territory. Not after what he did to my sister to get his revenge in the first place. Ten years we knew about. God only knew what we didn't.I looked at Elara across the annex and felt my chest tighten. Two men had spent years turning her into a chess piece — Voss, who'd used her body against her will and left her carrying the proof of it, and Josiah, who'd used her pain the same way, arranging her like a piece on his board because it served his own war. Voss was already gone. Handled. Buried under his own trafficking charges with eleven kids recovered and his name erased from every registry that mattered.Today, it was Josiah's turn. And I got to watch my sister

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    The Takedown

    The clearing was exactly where Elara said it would be.We came through the eastern tree line in the gray hour before full morning, the three of us moving at an even pace, close enough that our shoulders nearly touched. Josylyn on my left. Elara on my right. The ground was soft from two days of rain, and the logging stumps that ringed the clearing's edge were older than I was, mossy and low and offering nothing in the way of cover.Voss was already there.He stood at the far edge of the clearing with seven wolves ranged behind him in a loose formation that was meant to look casual and was not. He was taller than I'd expected — broad-shouldered, the kind of physical presence that had probably served him well his whole life, the easy authority of a man who had never once been the smallest thing in a room. His eyes found me immediately and stayed there.He didn't look at Elara.He didn't look at Josylyn.That was his first mistake."Laney Ashwood." He said my name as if he were identifyin

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    The Proposal

    River's expression did not change when I told him.That was somehow worse than if it had.He stood at the window of the war room — a generous name for the space Alpha Tomas had given us, which was really just a large sitting room with the furniture pushed back — with his arms crossed and his jaw set and his eyes on me the entire time I spoke. Not the map. Not the door. Me. Like if this went sideways, it'd be my fuck-up.Cade sat on the edge of the table. His father, Alpha Rian, had joined us via phone, on speaker, propped against a stack of books in the center of the table. Luna Elizabeth was on the same call, her voice clear and dry and precise as a filed edge. Tomas stood near the back. Marc stood next to Josylyn with his hand at the small of her back, which I suspected was the only thing keeping him from pacing.I laid it out the way I'd laid everything out since this started. Piece by piece. No softening.The sisters enter the clearing. Brianne's wolves inside the perimeter first.

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    What We're Walking Into

    Josylyn found the map first.She'd asked one of Alpha Tomas's wolves for paper — actual paper, not a phone, not a screen — and now it was spread across the bed between us, a printed satellite image of Korr's old territory that someone had pulled from a county land registry. Unmarked roads. Dense tree cover. A river cutting through the eastern edge that didn't appear on most GPS systems because it had been rerouted sometime in the 1970s and never officially updated."Brianne's people have been living here," I said, tracing the tree line with my finger, "for years. On routes that don't exist on any map Voss has built. Which means every blind spot he thinks he owns—""Is occupied," Josylyn finished."By wolves who know that land the way you know your own house in the dark."Elara was sitting cross-legged at the foot of the bed, her palms resting on her knees, her eyes moving across the map with the careful attention she gave things she was committing to memory. She hadn't said much. She

  • I Accidentally Became the Alphas' Mate    The Ashwood Sisters

    The bathroom tile was cold under my knees.I didn't care. I pressed my forehead against the rim of the toilet and breathed through my nose the way Colette had shown me, slow and deliberate, like I could trick my body into believing this was normal. That this was fine. That I was absolutely fine.I was not fine.I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand, grabbed the edge of the counter, and pulled myself upright. My reflection in Alpha Tomas's guest bathroom mirror looked like something that had been wrung out and hung to dry. Hair pulled back in a hasty knot, eyes too bright, jaw set the way it always set when I was holding something together that wanted very badly to fall apart.Sirus.The name had been running on a loop since Luna Elizabeth said the words. A tight, relentless circuit. Sirus is missing. We don't know how long. That's the problem.I knew how he got to him. I'd been turning it over since last night, the same way you press a bruise — not because it helps, but because yo

    River stood with me, his forehead resting against mine in silence.Then he kissed me deeply.When he pulled away, he locked forearms with his brother. The two men held each other's gaze for a moment before River gave a single nod and turned back toward the village.Next, Brianne said her goodbyes b

    The trail stopped being a trail about an hour in.After that, it was just mountain — loose shale, dense tree cover, the kind of climb that doesn't apologize for itself. My guards had gone quiet. Even River, who ran fifty miles on a bad week, was conserving breath.I didn't ask for help.I didn't ne

    "What if they were testing us?" I asked the crew.Both Shianne's and mates expression shifted.But no surprise. Instead of recognition, because that is what she would do.Like they had been waiting for me to say it out loud. She nodded in approval. River and Cade just waited, letting me learn my r

    Alpha Korr hadn't just been corrupt. He'd been a criminal mastermind, using his position to manipulate, control, and profit from every pack in the region. “Sirius is going to inherit all of this,” I said.Shianne’s expression darkened. “Yeah. He is.”Then her gaze settled on me, serious.“But ri
