THE LAST BREEDER, CLAIMED BY FOUR CHAPTER 95
EDAL The upper observation deck was freezing cold.The wind came straight off the ash plains, howling through the cracked iron girders overhead.But the small iron fire pit in the middle kept the dark away.The wood was old pine from the lower valleys. It popped and snapped loud, throwing bright yellow sparks straight up into the black sky.For the first time in months, the sector alarms were completely silent.The radio tower wasn't screaming about Vex’s scouts.The heavy iron gates of Haven were shut tight against the nuclear winter outside.I sat on a thick wool blanket on the concrete floor. My back was pressed hard against a stack of wooden crates.My left hip still throbbed with a dull ache from the old hybrid claw wound, but the ice inside my chest had finally melted.Tarek sat on a low crate across the fire.He pulled a rusted, dented harmonica out of his tactical vest pocket.He tapped it against his palm twice to clear the gray dust.Then he blew a soft, testing note.He st

EDALThe black soot from the hanger fire took two weeks to scrub out of the concrete walls, but the smell of Vex’s blood never truly left the lower gates.We didn't throw the bodies over the ridge this time. We buried them deep under the ash plains, using the heavy trench diggers until the ground was flat and freezing cold again. The mountain had changed. The old world Marcus had built inside these iron tunnels was completely dead, shattered by the explosives and the wolves.I stood on the upper observation platform, my hands gripping the cold iron railing. My left side was bound tight in clean white linen under my fresh gray uniform shirt, the wound from the hybrid claw throbbing with a dull, steady heat every time the mountain wind kicked through the vents."The eastern perimeter wall is completely sealed," Korr said. His boots made a slow, rhythmic crunch on the gravel behind me. He stopped three feet away, his big forty-two-year-old frame looking solid again, though his eyes carri

RYLANThe secondary blast doors jammed halfway down, sparking white-hot against the buckled floorboards. Through the three-foot gap, the freezing wind howled like a dying animal, but it wasn't louder than the laughter coming from the smoke."Korr! Take Edal and the kid!" I roared, my voice ripping out of my throat like rusty nails. I didn't look back at them. I could hear Ezra’s frantic crying and the wet, heavy sound of Korr’s boots dragging Edal’s bleeding frame down the utility corridor. "Go! Get her to Tarek! I'm sealing the hole!""Rylan, don't be a fool!" Korr shouted back through the alarm horns. "The layout is compromised! Fall back!""I said go!" I yelled, slamming my palm into the manual override box on the wall.The emergency gears groaned. The heavy iron door dropped another six inches with a massive *CRUNCH*, locking me on the outside. In the dark. In the freezing slush of the main hanger breach. Just me, my two blades, and the smell of the wolves."Well, well," a smooth,

EDALThe main hanger deck was a chamber of smoke and screaming metal. The heavy blast doors had been blown inward, warped into jagged steel teeth by a high-explosive charge. Through the burning gap, the freezing mountain storm howled into the base, carrying the stench of wet fur, cheap gasoline, and fresh blood."Form a line on the secondary barricade!" Korr roared. His voice was a blunt instrument over the blare of the klaxons. He stood behind a crushed concrete barrier, his rifle tucked into his shoulder, firing steady, rhythmic bursts into the blinding white snow outside. "Tyson! Get those heavy shields up! Don't let them split the center!""I'm on it, Commander!" Tyson shouted back. The massive Nullifier lunged forward, slamming a six-foot steel riot shield into the debris, his heavy boots skidding through the frozen slush.Beside them, Rylan was already moving like a beast unhinged. His Alpha dominance was flaring hot, a heavy, suffocating weight that made the air feel thick. He

EDALThree weeks.Twenty-one days of staring at the concrete ceiling, waiting for the bleeding to stop. Waiting for the ghost of the pain to leave my stomach.The blood was gone. The fever was gone. And whatever softness I had left inside me was completely buried under the mountain floor.The lower training bay was freezing cold. The air smelled like rust, sweat, and old concrete. I stood in front of the heavy leather punching bag, my hands wrapped tight in black canvas strips. No gloves. I wanted to feel the impact. I needed to feel something that wasn't the empty, hollow ache in my gut.*THUD.*I threw a heavy left hook. The leather groaned under the hit.A right cross. My shoulder burned. My breath came out in short, sharp puffs of white vapor in the cold air. I didn't stop. I kept moving my feet, striking the bag over and over until the canvas started to scrape the skin off my knuckles."Your left guard is dropping," a flat voice said from the iron stairs.I didn't turn around. I

THIRD POVThe air in the medical bay smelled like rubbing alcohol and old blood. Tarek stood by the metal sink. He scrubbed his hands under the running water, over and over, trying to get the red stains out from under his fingernails.The heavy iron door groaned open. Korr walked in first. His right hand was completely wrapped up in thick white tape and wooden splints, his broken fingers held stiff against his palm. Rylan followed right behind him. His eyes were totally bloodshot, his face pale and unwashed, his jaw clenched so tight the muscles were jumping. Ezra came in last. He didn't look at anyone. He just slid against the concrete wall and dropped to the floor, pulling his knees up to his chest."How is she?" Korr asked. His voice was rough, completely stripped of his usual military authority. "She still won't eat. She just stares at the wall, Tarek. She won't let me get near the bed."Tarek stopped scrubbing. He didn't turn around right away. He just looked down at the gray soa

EDALThe concrete block of the execution center reeked of stale sweat, rusted iron, and pure fucking death. Korr kept a brutal, bruising grip on my arm, his thick fingers digging straight into my muscle as he shoved me into the middle of the room, right in front of the two tied-up scouts. The guar

RYLANI stumbled into the dark, Edal's room. It had been empty for weeks but the scent of her skin still clung desperately to the damp concrete walls and it was driving me completely insane.Groaning, I leaned my head back against the cold wall right beside her bare mattress. My hand traveled down

EDAL Korr’s head snapped toward me, his dark eyes narrowing into lethal slits. Beside him, Damon’s hand froze on the hilt of his combat knife. The entire courtyard went dead silent. The surrounding militia guards shifted their weight, their eyes darting between me and the two battered scouts knee

EDAL."Take your hands off her, Damon," Korr snapped with an angry bite to his tone that I felt in my chest, in my aching cunt."Relax, Commander. Just helping her dry off." His thumb dragged over the peak of my nipple through the thin fabric before he pulled away. A jolt of electricity shot straig
