FEYRE I slowly regain consciousness, my head throbbing with a relentless ache. My vision is blurry and the world around me seems to sway. Like a ship caught in the middle of a turbulent storm. Images flash in the back of my eyes, and the swaying gets worse. I tried to blink it back, or move my h
The luna and Anika both look frightened. The luna places her hand over her bump protectively and Anika just looks scared. I don’t pay much attention to why they are scared of me when I’m the one who is obviously hurt. I’m more concerned about what I heard. “You spoke english.” It wasn’t a question
ALPHA ZADE I’m in the midst of chaos. I know that even before my eyes fully opened and I took in what was going on around me. Jax growls in my head, angry and feral. It is good that we’re on the same page because I am out for blood. ‘I’m going to fucking kill every one of them!’ he growls, figh
ALPHA ZADE Drugal and his mate share a look before he nods at her. “She is fine, I told you already.” I scoffed. “The problem with that, I don’t believe you.” her coming here without him and him coming in later, acting like he didn't know she was here told me to be careful with them. They are s
ALPHA ZADE I came out from between the trees, only to see an open land and no sign of a human being. Or any living thing. I looked around the place but there was no one there. And for a moment I think it is all in my head, but I know what I heard. I couldn’t be making things up. Even if I was ha
FEYRE I’m shivering hard, my teeth chattering against each other. The flimsy material that covers me does nothing to protect me from the cold. The crackling fire in front of me feels like it is more of a picture than anything. “Are you sure you’ll be fine?” the soft voice asks from beside me on t
“If they are such good people, why are you running away?” I know I sound like a suspicious asshole. I couldn’t bring myself to feel bad about it. She may have helped me when I needed it, and I’m extremely grateful to her for that, but she also lied along with them. And up till now, she hasn’t done
ALPHA ZADE Drugal obviously didn’t realize the implications of what he had done. I didn’t want to think the man was dumb but the way he was acting proved just that. After I’d killed the first man, I thought that would be the end of it. They may have the numbers. That is their only advantage. Liter
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
