"I..." Evangeline's voice grew strained as she glanced in her father's direction. His silent anger palpable, making the air at the table unusually dense.

"It's fine, Lady Evangeline. Water under the bridge," I continued, offering a small smile that didn't quite reach my eyes. "What kids say and do cannot be held against them. Especially after the ordeal you've gone through with your health. I, of all people, understand your suffering."

    "I..." Evangeline's voice grew strained as she glanced in her father's direction. His silent anger palpable, making the air at the table unusually dense."It's fine, Lady Evangeline. Water under the bridge," I continued, offering a small smile that didn't quite reach my eyes. "What kids say and do cannot be held against them. Especially after the ordeal you've gone through with your health. I, of all people, understand your suffering."Luna Alena stiffened beside me. I hadn't meant it as a dig at her, but the truth has a way of cutting everyone responsible for its silence."I am happy in my home, and the treatment has seemingly done wonders for your recovery. A single vial and you're well enough to join us for dinner," I remarked, turning my attention to the feast. "Perhaps I'll be out of here sooner than three weeks, Alpha Damon."A deep growl rumbles in his chest at my suggestion, but I couldn't pinpoint whether it was frustration or anger. It didn't matter. Evangeline, once again,

    Delta Hester's proclamation ended the meeting abruptly, the charged atmosphere fizzling into radiating but unacknowledged tension.One by one, the office emptied as everyone dragged themselves toward the Great Hall."I think I'll take my dinner in the guest chambers." After the last great fiasco of a meal, I didn't think it wise for me to join them at the Alpha's honored table again. But my suggestion was shot down immediately."Absolutely not," Alpha Damon stated, his gaze hardening from contemplation to determination. "You are an honored guest, and I would have your presence celebrated and revered.""Please, Lady Aurelia." Luna Alena slipped her arm around mine, guiding me out of the office and down the massive corridor. It was eerily reminiscent of being dragged into that very office five years ago. Then a prisoner, now an honored guest. "I assure you that the previous spectacle will not befall you. It is only right that you dine with us, as your hosts and as allies in this treacher

    The Alpha's office went silent at Risk's solution. It was bold. Definitely aligned with his name. Risk was the hallmark of his suggestion. To comb through Snow Pointe would be to invalidate all security within the pack, including Alpha Damon's authority. Suggesting that any and everyone be called into question indicated foundational cracks within the pack that couldn't be denied or explained away. Not to mention, it wasn't a guaranteed solution at all. Depending on how long the spies and moles were part of Snow Pointe, they could be fully integrated into the daily operations in ways that will be impossible to distinguish. The Imposter Andromeda was in place for at least three years before I realized she wasn't the original. And I saw her daily for years. There was no telling just how long she'd been infiltrating and feeding information out to her contacts. And there was certainly no knowing if she was the only one. "That's not going to happen," Gamma Olivier snarled. "We comb thro

    "You're right, there is nothing new to see here." Theta Risk's gaze darkened as he flipped through the images. "But I think it is important for us to see these images every time we meet and understand one important truth: Provesti was only the beginning. What happened to them is happening to us, too."The screen flickered, revealing detailed photographs of the Provesti Alpha's inner sanctum, a room not terribly different than the one we were gathered in at that moment. Theta Risk's hand appeared in the next photo, holding a stack of documents, with a blurred image of a busted-up desk drawer in the background. "These papers detailed numerous accounts of seemingly random rogue attacks that plagued Provesti for years before their ultimate destruction." Theta Risk placed the projector remote on the desk in front of him and shifted closer, pointing out barely legible details concerning the attack frequency, formation, and witness accounts. "The attacks were dispersed over a long period of

    That did the trick.A broad grin cut across Alpha Damon's face, and the boisterous laugh returned, not quite softening the sharpness of his gaze. "You've got a sharp tongue, Praxis. Like a puppy that has just lost its milk teeth. You want me to prove I earned my spot on that leaderboard?"I shook my head. "Not really. But if you feel like you have something to prove, Alpha Snow... then by all means, be my guest."The next laugh was louder, with undertones of a growl. His wolf reacted to the challenge just like Arya: alpha wolves and their pride.Alpha Damon grunted, barely regaining his composure, "Look here, little girl--""Alpha! You're requested in the study." One of his aides came sprinting up, interrupting the conversation with barely contained panic. "There's new information regarding the Provesti Pack massacre."Provesti Pack massacre? That couldn't have been what he said. The Provesti Pack was one of the wealthiest and most peaceful packs in the region. They made allies with e

    She may as well have asked me if she could hit me in the face with a brick. A hug? Now? After everything that's come to light about my childhood and her role in it? Was she insane?Was I for humoring her?I questioned my sanity the entire time. I must have been losing my mind. Embracing this woman was a betrayal of everything I'd overcome and become during my time away. But the invitation stirred feelings in my chest that I was powerless to ignore. My body moved of its own accord, and I encircled the Luna in my arms, resting my cheek on her shoulder.Her hand rested on my back, the other stroked my hair, confusing me more. Why? What was the motive behind such tenderness? My brain short-circuited,d and my heart followed closely behind, pounding in my chest to a wild rhythm."I failed you," Luna Alena whispered, her arms tightening around me. "I failed you in unforgivable ways. You deserved so much better. Not because you are strong now, but because you weren't."She's so warm. Has she a

    Not long after Gabe left, I did just what he said and drifted back off to sleep. However, the sleep was nothing like what I’d experienced before.Back in Snow Pointe, dreams were rare. Occasionally, something nonsensical and random slipped through the void of nothingness. But most nights met me wit

    For the first time, Arya took total control. My consciousness drifted to the back as my body bent and burned with the transformation. Black fur covered my pale skin, and long claws grew from my hands. By the end, I barely fit in the basement.Ah... finally. Are you okay, Auri?Her voice was so loud

    Alpha Snow left. I wished he hadn't. But he had an engagement party to get to and no reason to doubt the pack doctor. He hadn't seen what I saw. He didn't know that the person standing in front of my cell was not who she claimed to be.She was something monstrous. Unnatural. Everything from her pres

    The first week came and went. And with it, all of Doctor Andromeda's pretense of care.The sweet, goodly doctor act faded, and she returned to her cutting, clinical tone and manners. Thankfully, I only saw her once or twice a day. She'd darken the west ward doors with a rickety metal cart containin
