Working The Shaft, Said Jax. Solemnly.

"We've intercepted another raven. Shall I put it with the rest?" Fin exhaled slowly at the head of the war table, rubbing the bridge of his nose. "No. Let's see it."Colonel Sterling handed Fin the letter."Let's find out what she's invented this time."Fin broke the seal and scanned the page. "What the actual fuck."Jax plucked the letter from Fin's hand.✦✦✦To Alpha Riven Ashbane,King of Ashbane and my dearest brother,Riven,Matters have deteriorated beyond measure. I woke up with that cock-socket bastard's hands around my throat. She has attempted to kill me multiple times now since arriving. That's not even the worst of it. She was caught sneaking into the Alpha's chambers — yes, Riven, his private rooms in the middle of the night. It startled him so severely he now fears for his safety. In her multiple attempts to spread her legs, she has managed to frighten him.And now, the greatest insult of all: the room Finric gave to me when I arrived, has been locked. Because he caug

Interpretive Combat

"Today, we fight with live blades. Rope. And one shift allowed."Professor Draven stood at the front of the field, arms crossed, expression unreadable."There will be one target and three aggressors."✦✦✦Three figures slipped into the training arena quietly, avoiding notice.A new captain, Silas Cormaire led the group. Beside him were lieutenants Malric Denholm and Torren Valeris.Their task was to identify potential recruits for advancement.Captain Cormaire's attention settled on one student in particular, a potential candidate for advancement.She had won sparring matches against an undefeated opponent, Helga Emberhide, and, most impressively, Captain Ryker.He'd seen her before, at speakeasies and in the shared dining hall for warriors and omegas. She was beautiful, undeniably so.But he had never heard her speak. And he'd heard conflicting reports on her. Some warriors who were closest to Princess Meredith, their future Luna, spoke of her with open disdain.For someone they were

Interpretive Combat (Part 2)

For a full three seconds, no one moved. No one even breathed.Then the arena erupted in the kind of laughter that shook entire bodies. Students hunched over, faces burning as they tried, and failed, to stay quiet.Up in the stands, Fin turned slowly toward Cael, both of them staring in disbelief."Are you fucking kidding me?" he muttered.Draven's roar cut through the laughter. "WHAT—IN THE MOON'S HOLY NAME—WAS THAT?!"Millie was still frozen, staring at the boy like he'd just committed a war crime.Whitlow, still half-wrapped in rope, grinned. "You said make it realistic!"Draven looked one exhale away from combusting. "THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT!"Down below, Nova and Elle were visibly trembling, their faces buried in their hands, trying to keep it together."WIPE THOSE SMIRKS OFF YOUR FACES!" Draven barked, spinning toward them.Up in the stands, Cael groaned. "I can feel her trying not to laugh," he muttered, rub

Mark Her. It Would Help.

Nova froze.Then she saw them.She recognized Torren and Malric lieutenants, and the third person was someone who had approached her a number of times at speakeasies. She hadn't realized he was a Captain.Up above, Fin leaned toward Cael. "Wait... we assigned him to training halls and drills of scouts and junior officers. What is he doing here?""He falls under Jax. Who I guarantee isn't aware." Cael said darkly.Down below, Nova's voice slipped into the mindlink — again, not private.Nova: Someone come tackle me. I promise I won't fight back.Ash: I'm tied, Nova.Rael: Can he be any more obsessed?Nova: Milo. Rip your training suit. I'll get you a new one.Milo tore his sleeve open, threads snapping. The look on his face said it all — why didn't I think of that first?Nova: Grab the

When Training Became War

Fin stiffened.A storm brewed under his calm exterior. Possessiveness. Longing. A magnetic pull he was tired of fighting. Was he starting to care for her? The thought hit like lightning.Jax, however, made a pointed effort to not react to Cael's statement. He'd already marked her, but it wasn't visible. And he wasn't sure how Nova felt about it. So he hadn't told anyone. She hadn't brought it up since, and he wasn't going to rush her if she wasn't ready. But he full heartedly agreed with Cael and wanted to make it very visible. He'd been fighting that instinct since she came to Shadowclaw.Draven's whistle split through the air, jolting all three out of their thoughts.Cormaire shifted mid-stride, fur bursting through in a blur of grey. Torren sprinted left, rope in hand. Malric dove for the knife.Nova waited.Cormaire's wolf struck first, slamming into her side. She rolled with the impact, pain flashing white-hot

Overstepping

Jax carried Nova through the halls, his aura spilling out uncontrollably.The weight of it pressed down on every wolf he passed. Heads bowed, eyes averted, silence following in his wake.He never used his aura like this. It was instinct, pure and dangerous, radiating from every inch of him. Anyone with sense could feel what it meant. Someone had hurt his mate.He took a breath, steadying himself, forcing control back into his chest. It didn't help much.When he reached his quarters, he shouldered the door open and laid her carefully on the bed. She didn't stir. Blood streaked her ribs, and her breathing hitched, uneven and shallow. His heart hammered, but his hands were steady as he brushed her hair back from her face.He opened a mindlink to Elias.Jax: Nova got hit in training. She's unconscious. I need you in my quarters.Elias: Wait—what? In training?Jax:

Over-Caffeinated Guard Dog

Warmth spread through Nova, slow and steady, like heat seeping into cold stone. Her ribs loosened. The ache in her leg eased. Even the pounding in her ears softened to a distant hum. She drifted with it, unresisting, letting the warmth draw her inward."Her rib has already started healing," a voice said above her, familiar enough that her chest loosened a little. Aeron. She would have known that tone anywhere. Clipped, authoritative, threaded with the patience of someone used to commanding stubborn wolves."Already? It's been less than an hour."The second voice was deeper, masculine, and tense."She heals fast," Aeron said, a dark laugh catching in his throat. "It took her, what, two days the last time? When she was stabbed and drained of her magic.""Yes. Only a fated mate could have done that," a third voice replied, steady and clinical in the way only Elias ever managed. "And with her being... well, her... nothing about her is normal. I think i

The Weight of Almost

He disappeared through the doorway, returning moments later with a pair of scissors in hand, determination etched across his face."Wait, Jax... I..." Nova said, realizing what he was holding."It's not like you can wear this again," Jax said gently, a quiet laugh. "I've already ordered you a whole set of these. They're not supposed to rip like this."He gestured to the torn fabric along her ribs and leg. "That means it was overworn."He lifted the scissors, ready to cut.Nova's hand flew to his wrist."Wait. Stop." Her voice tightened. "It's not mine. It's Elle's."Jax paused, then shrugged like it was the simplest problem in the world. "Then I'll tell Cael to get her new ones too. Where are yours?"Nova blushed again. The truth was, her best one had ripped the day she was stabbed. "We were meaning to get more," she muttered. "We just... didn't have time yet."It wasn't a complete lie.But it wasn't the truth eit

The Heart of Shadowclaw

When she woke again, it wasn't to warmth, or sunlight, or Jax's arms.It was to someone shaking her shoulder with all the delicacy of a hurricane.Nova groaned, rolling onto her back. "Elle...?""Good morning, sleeping beauty," Elle said, far too cheerful for someone who'd definitely been awake long enough to cause ten separate disasters. She stood beside the bed holding a neatly folded stack of clothes. "Your overprotective wolf sent me.""How long...?" Nova murmured, forcing her eyes open."Almost fourteen hours." Elle smirked. "You could've been declared medically dead."Nova pushed herself up on her elbows — carefully — her ribs twinging but no longer stabbing."He mindlinked me to come here. He and Cael have some meeting." Elle said.Elle tossed the clothes onto the bed. "Come on. Up. I brought your black set — the one that isn't shredded like a wolf chew toy."Nova sat up slowly, stretching her neck. "Thank you."

Xeon Said Real Queen. Fin Said Shut Up.

He hadn't meant to follow them. Something had pulled him anyway, his legs carrying him here before he'd realised what he was doing. He shook his head at it, unsettled by how strong the matebond had become. A bond he could feel clearly, while she had no idea it even existed.He watched them from the shadows, one shoulder braced against the stone wall, his expression unreadable.Elle chatted animatedly beside Nova, waving her gloves like a victory banner, her laughter ringing lightly against the snow-muffled street.Nova's voice was soft. Fin couldn't hear every word, but the tone made something in him still. He stepped closer."...she was so kind... I didn't think she would just... give it to us..."Elle snorted. "She adored you. All the old women do. One wink and they fold.""I didn't wink," Nova protested, cheeks pinking."You exist," Elle said, "that's enough."Fin's jaw tightened. An emotion rose in him, sharp and unwanted.
