FEYRE I didn’t actually wait to see what Alpha Zade would do. I ran out of the room like a bat from hell and locked myself in my room after I got there. It wasn’t one of my finest moments but I couldn’t stay there any longer when all I could hear in my head was that growl, that sound. The feel of
ALPHA ZADE The mug clatters from my hand to the floor, shattering loudly as pieces of glass litter the floor, along with the hot coffee that is inside. “Shit.” Dylan cursed from beside me, pushing me aside. “What’s up with you this morning?!” He curses again, handing me a wet towel and pointing t
FEYRE I didn’t know if to clap myself on the back for being brave or smack myself across the face for being stupid and still going through with this summit trip. I could have come up with an excuse. I’m almost dying, or they need me back in my pack and it is urgent, but I didn’t. I let my pride w
ALPHA ZADE Cassian growled in my head trying to take control, I shoved him to the back of my mind which only made him angrier and he growled again. I looked away from the woman who had her eyebrow cocked, as if she was daring me to do anything. Cassian tried pushing to the front of my mind again,
FEYRE I watched as Alpha Zade got into one of the cars, not sparing me another glance. I had to pick my mouth up from the floor because he actually just did that. I mean I should expect the absolute worst from the man, but humiliating me in the presence of his pack members is a new low, even for h
FEYRE By the time we got to the airport hanger, I already knew three of Sawyer’s—finally remembered his name, actually, Adrian had called it in warning when he was making fun of him—ex-girlfriends names and found out Adrian is single because women can’t keep up with his work, the driver who I learn
ALPHA ZADE My gaze remained on her even as she refused to look at me, and I know she was doing it intentionally, but my mind was more focused on how she looked scared. If she couldn’t handle flying, she could have easily said so. ‘Really, easily?’ Cassian almost hollered at his own words. ‘You hav
FEYRE I almost screamed, sick of myself for falling asleep once again in a strange place, because the moment my eyes opened, I knew I wasn’t lying in my bed. The bed in the Darkmoon pack. I corrected myself mentally. It took less than a few seconds for me to realize what was happening, who was bes
After everyone settled and the place regained a semblance of normalcy, we gathered in the living room to talk about pressing matters. Feyre said she wanted to know everything before tonight. That way, she wouldn’t feel like there is something she has to do in her life. She wants to start on a clean
ALPHA ZADE Everything feels different when the plane lands in the private hangar. Even the air felt different, free and fresh. Feyre slept the entire ride to the packhouse. I relished holding cradling her in my arms like a precious jewel. Which she is. Alpha Asher is already waiting for our arri
If someone told me this would be my life four or five months ago, I would take them to the doctor because something had to be wrong with them. We’re here now, and I don’t think I can ever be this happy in my life. “Perfect.” Zade repeats. He grips my chin and tips my head up until I’m looking at h
FEYRE The gentle rhythm of the heart monitor is the sound I wake up to. I look around the dim lit room, sighing in relief when I note that it is NOT a hospital room. I think everyone would understand if I never wanted to be in one ever again. Soft breathing from beside me makes me smile. I push
We both stare at the gun we hadn’t noticed in alpha Lucien’s hand and Zade sighs, then he stands up, letting my hand fall off his body. “He would choose to die a coward. It is all he has ever been.” He turns and walks out of the place. I followed him without a word. When we walk out, there are mor
FEYRE Losing consciousness has become a second skin to me. That is my first thought when I wake up and find myself looking up at the ceiling. I pick myself up from the ground, craning my neck from side to side until I release the cramp. The man is still lying face down on the mattress. He looks d
I knew it was a reach but he was already on a sloppy hill, and this is the one thing I have always wanted to know, if he was the one that killed her or not. It looked like suicide, people believed she had a reason to. But I knew she wouldn’t. She promised to stand by me and she wouldn’t have left w
“It can’t be cured because it is not a fucking illness. Your delusion though, I’m sure they have mental institutions like this for that.” “Don’t speak to me like that.” he growls, sounding enraged. It is the only real emotion I have seen him shown in a while. “I had this all mapped out for years.
ALPHA ZADE I blink my eyes open, hoping everything I’m thinking right now is nothing but my imagination, or at least, a bad dream. A terrible dream where my father has me and Feyre in a crazy lab bunker. It seems too real, the déjà vu hitting me among other things. This has felt like it has happe
