Alec

He found her in the study long after the pack house had gone quiet.

She was standing at the window with her arms crossed loosely over her chest, not looking at anything in particular, just standing in the dark with the lamp behind her throwing light across the back of her hair and catching the red tones in it. The carved stone was on the desk where they had left it hours ago. She had not taken it to her room yet.

He had not expected her to still be here.

He stopped in the doorway and looke

  • Twin Alphas' Rare Luna    Chapter Eighty-One: The Second Turn

    MylaShe had been on the road since first light.The bay mare had held her pace through the morning without complaint, but by late afternoon her ears were flicking sideways at every branch snap in the trees, and Myla had learned enough about the horse over the course of the day to know that the mare was listening to something she could not name yet.Myla had been listening too.The Council road did not sound the way a Council road was supposed to sound.The road carried the signs of regular use. Frozen wheel ruts. Wooden markers at each crossing. Weathered notices nailed beneath the Council insignia.This afternoon, no one else had used it.No merchants. No Council riders. No fresh hoofprints travelling towards Ashford. The notices on the marker posts were faded, their corners curled by weather. Nothing had been added recently.An emergency classification should have left some mark on the road. A courier. A changed notice. Fresh tracks from the receiving station.There was nothing.Th

  • Twin Alphas' Rare Luna    Chapter Eighty: Every Name on the Board

    SebastianThe rotation board was already covered when Seb reached the study door.Rowan had cleared the morning list and pinned a new one over the top of it. Six columns, in his blocky handwriting. Border. Gate. Infirmary. Supplies. Training rounds. Message runners. Every column had names. Every name had a second name beneath it.Seb stopped in the doorway and looked at the board for a long moment before he understood what he was looking at.He had been at that board a hundred times.He knew every name on it.He knew, because he had watched Myla put them there over the last four days, that most of the backup names were hers.That was the whole point of what she had been doing. Every task carried by one person now carried two. Every rotation had a shadow. Every responsibility she had quietly redistributed was exactly what allowed Crimson River to keep functioning while both of its Alphas rode north to bring her home.She had built the pack to survive her absence.She had, instead, give

  • Twin Alphas' Rare Luna    Chapter Seventy-Nine: What She Asked Them to Believe

    AlecDena and Luis rode out inside the hour.Alec stood at the study window and watched them clear the gate. Two riders in dark coats, moving fast because the ground was still hard and the snow had not started again yet. Rowan had told them exactly what to look for and exactly what not to do if they found it. One of them would turn back the moment the trail left the main road.Alec turned from the window.He needed to draft a message to Thistlebrook that did not sound like it was drafted by a man whose wife had ridden out of her own gate at first light. He needed to write it precisely, because Thistlebrook was already halfway between suspicion and disengagement, and one wrong sentence would lose the alliance entirely.He sat at the desk.He picked up the pen.He began the salutation. He crossed it out. He began it again. He crossed it out again. He set the pen down and stared at the sheet of paper.His hands were steady. That was the part he could not quite forgive. His hands were ste

  • Twin Alphas' Rare Luna    Chapter Seventy-Eight: What She Left Behind

    AlecThe stable boy found the empty stall before anyone found the empty room.He came to the kitchen door with feed still on his hands, apologising for the interruption and explaining that he had been told to report whenever a horse went out before he arrived.He had arrived at half past six.The bay mare was already gone. Her saddle and bridle were gone too.Alec was drinking his second coffee.He set it down.“Which mare?”“The Luna’s.”Alec was already on his feet.The morning gate wolf was a boy named Farrin, seventeen years old and three months into the rotation. He straightened when Alec came through the archway and did not stop until Alec told him to speak.“She rode out at first light, Alpha. She said she was going to check the eastern watch. She said Seb asked her to run a spare rotation because Corin was still on rest.”“She said Sebastian asked her.”“Yes, Alpha.”“You did not check the rotation board.”Farrin’s face drained. “She’s the Luna. I didn’t think I needed to.”“Y

    MylaWord came in from the southern rider before breakfast.Thistlebrook’s wagon was two hours from the border.For the first hour after the news, Crimson River moved the way it had not moved in weeks. Elna sent two apprentices ahead with clean crates and inventory lists. Rowan pulled the cold-storage keys and had them ready at the gate. Seb assigned an escort of six wolves to meet the wagon at the last river crossing. Tomas came down to the courtyard with his coat on and did not sit down.Alec put on the heavier coat he only wore for formal business. Myla saw him check the seal at his belt twice.“You want me to stay behind,” she said.“I want you visible. So does the pack.” He did not soften it. “Thistlebrook is doing this because I asked personally. They should see who they’re doing it for.”She nodded and went for her own coat.The border road ran along the river for the last half mile, then climbed a low rise to the actual boundary stone. The wagon came into view just as they cre

  • Twin Alphas' Rare Luna    Chapter Seventy-Six: The Manageable Version

    AlecShe came to the study before first light.Alec had not slept. Seb had been in the chair across from him for the last two hours, and neither of them had said much. When the door opened without a knock, they both knew.Myla closed it behind her.She was already dressed for the day, hair tied back, a folded page in one hand. Not the pattern list. A different page. Alec knew before she set it down what it was."I need you to read this."She put it on the desk between them.Alec did not touch it yet. He looked at her first.Her face was tired but steady. She had made her decision. This was the visit where she asked him to sign it.Seb had already leaned forward and picked up the paper. He read the sentence about holding no separate claim twice before reaching the end. Then he rested the page against his knee."Myla.""Read it before you say anything."He read it once more.Alec reached across and took it.He read it slowly. The wording was clean. She had picked every phrase to protect
