Chapter114 The Trial

“Nearly four years ago, we gathered, much like we do today, under very dire circumstances the likes of which we had hoped would never darken our doorstep again,” Xavier announced, his voice alone commanding the throng to silence.“And so, it is great reticence that I inform you all that Victor Brown, former right-hand of our last Alpha and pillar of our community, is accused of treason against the Red Moon Pack of the highest order for arranging the murders of Sophia Michaels, my sister, and Samantha Brown, his daughter.”“No!”“Lies! We put that murderer away!”As he’d feared, the change in the crowd happened quickly as confusion gave way to shock and anger, much like it had right before Ava’s trial in the woods. A fact that Victor was quick to catch onto.“These are lies!” He cried out, only to groan loudly as one of the guards jostled him. “See how they try to silence me? But you know the truth, my own daughter died that night!”Xavier lifted his hands in an effort to calm the risi

Chapter115 The Ties That Bind

“You dropped this.”Ava began to roll her eyes before she’d even fully registered the envelope being waved in front of her face. When she did, she knocked it aside with a flippant wave of her hand.“No, I’m pretty sure I left that exactly where it belongs, thanks.”“Fine. Have it your way,” Aiden huffed, clearly unimpressed with the particular hill she’d chosen to die on. “I’ll put it away for you since you’re too damn stubborn to do it yourself.”Ava came to a stop in the small conference room where they’d been stashed from the time they’d arrived the night before up until Ava had been summoned to the stage so that the Pack could have their big come-to-Jesus moment. “I don’t need it,” she said as she began furiously shoving together her few belongings. “More to the point, I don’t want it. It’s blood money. Little better than a bribe.”“Don’t be ridiculous, Ava,” Aiden intercepted her, stilling her single-minded packing with a gentle hand on her arm. “This money belongs to you, Ava.

Chapter116 Old Wounds

It wasn’t until hours after the end of Victor’s trial that Xavier finally sent the last of the day’s crowd home. He and his father had been prepared for the questions, and damn if there weren’t more than enough to go around. He couldn’t blame the Pack for their confusion; after all, to them, the accusations, the trial, Victor’s sudden and harsh sentencing had all seemingly come out of thin air.They had no idea that the events of this morning were simply the culmination of years of misjustice. And, since he was being honest with himself now, it was his and his father’s faults that the town was so unprepared to see one of their pseudo-leaders brought low and punished. It didn’t happen very often, not in Red Moon and not in the Alliance as a whole. “I’m proud of what you accomplished today, Xavier.”Xavier let out a heavy breath, stretching his aching back as he made his way over to the perpetually stocked bar in the corner of his Town Hall office. He grabbed two glasses and the closes

Chapter117 Keep Calm And Carry On

“It will be a long process, but it’s important to get started as quickly as possible. We want to show that you’re willing to be a positive, active member of the Pack,” Garrett continued as Ava looked on in stunned silence.“And, of course, we’d love to have you back home until you get back on your feet,” Marie interjected. “Aiden’s old room is yours for as long as you need it.”“Aiden’s room?”“Stop.”Aiden’s stern tone cut through the rapidly growing din, “These are a lot of plans you’re making for someone you haven’t even spoken to in nearly four years. How about we dial it back.”“Aiden, please don’t be reductive. Your sister was just released from prison– "“Actually, I wasn’t just released,” Ava said. “I’ve been out for about six months now.”A tense silence stretched between them before Marie cut the quiet with another sob, “Six months? And you never reached out?”“Like you reached out to me?”“Ava,” Garrett warned, but it was her turn to cut him off.“Forgive me for addressing

Chapter118 Schism

“What have you done?”Noah knew from the moment he saw the stark white Bentley parked in his driveway that he was in for a treat of a conversation. But when he walked into the parlor only to find the bottle of extremely rare Rebouche au Chateau already half empty, he considered turning right back around.Alpha or not, hell hath no fury like an irritated mother. Especially when said mother was Neia Adelaide Thomas.“Which part? You’ll have to be more specific.” Noah feigned nonchalance as he took off his coat and hung it on the nearby coat hanger. “Baring all goes well in a few days, I’ve secured a seat for myself on the Council, established myself as the rightful heir to the Eclipse Alphadom, and made good with the leaders of the Alliance. All in all, I think I’ve smashed out goals.”Neia grimaced, her crimson lipstick standing out like a bloodstain against her bronzed skin, “No, Noah, darling. You&rsquo

Chapter119 All’s Fair In Love…

“Noah?” Ava called as she walked through the front door of the lake house, dumping her bags by the front door. “When did you get home?”The large home was nearly completely dark and silent, but the cheery fire dancing in the living room fireplace told her that barring an extremely uncharacteristic lapse in judgment, Noah was somewhere nearby.Sure enough, no sooner did she flick on the living room light than Noah appeared barefoot at the back doors. He shook leaves from his closely cropped hair as he slid the glass door panels aside and stepped inside. As soon as he saw her, his face lit up.“How did it go?”Ava was across the room in a flash, flinging her arms around him. He caught her as she wrapped her legs around his waist and buried his nose in her hair.“God, I missed you,” he groaned. “It feels like it’s been too damn long since we’ve been in our home together.”He pulled bac

Chapter120 Changing of the Guard

12:30 PM“Earth to Ava! How is this not inspiring something in you?”The fingers snapping in Ava’s face caused her to blink back into the present…and then blink again in surprise at the enormous stone figure rising up out of the Upper New York Bay before her, “Oh, wow…where did that come from?”Beside her, Aiden chuckled and held up the pamphlet he picked up from the kiosk outside of the ferry dock, “According to this, France all the way back in 1884 as a sign of friendship and a celebration of independence. Hmm…maybe the Alpha’s should’ve had a statue commissioned for tonight?”From her other side, Bren snorted, “I’m glad to see that the moment hasn’t been wasted on you, Miss. I’ve lived a few hours from New York City my entire life and have never seen the Statue of Liberty.”Ava shrugged, raising her phone to capture of picture of the towering figure li

Chapter121 Hellfire

6:38 PMAva went crashing to her knees right in the center of 4th and Broadway, surrounded on all sides by the hundreds of families, tourists, and native New Yorkers that crowded the city’s sidewalks at any given time. Every single one of them seemed to fade from her view as she was suddenly filled with overwhelming heat. There were times, back when she’d been imprisoned in the dungeon, that guards would get their rocks off passing the time during their slogging shifts by watching the smaller inmates squirm by putting out their cigars and cigarettes on arms, throats, faces…any bit of exposed skin they could get their filthy hands on.She’d been on the receiving end of that special brand of torture play a time or twelve, but that pain was child’s play in comparison to the tsunami of agony ripping its way through her muscles, her skin – not even her teeth and hair were safe from the pain.“Ava!” Aiden dropped to the

Chapter122 All’s Fair In Love And War

Xavier didn’t bother asking for an explanation. He didn’t care. He was already half-transformed before he’d even consciously thought to give Alexandre the reins.One moment there was a man; the next, there was a beast as Xavier burst into his half-formed state. The hulking black beast took off toward the helicopter, gaining speed on all fours before launching himself at the bitch in white.Laser-focused as he was on his target, he didn’t register the other beast; its massive form crashed into him with all of the force of a freight train. The momentum sent Xavier flying, his large, furred body skipping off the wet tarmac like a stone.He threw his body over his shoulder, coming up on all-fours and digging his claws into the cement below, coming up just shy of the edge of the skyscraper they stood on. Xavier’s barrel chest heaved as he stared down the other male. Noah was big, easily half a foot taller than Xavier in his Wolfman state.

Chapter123 March

Ava tried her best to clear her mind as she ran, but just as she’d come to expect, it was…difficult to give in to the motion. In fact, the more she tried not to think, the more vivid her waking terrors became, going from blurry, confused memories to technicolor visions in a literal blink of an eye.The chirping of birds sharpened to the rat-a-tat-tat of gunfire, while the soft, melodic trickle of fountain water distorted into the hazy rush of a man-made fire quickly growing out of hand….Ava squeezed her eyes shut and turned up the volume on the quick, synth-heavy music blaring in her ears as she focused on pumping her arms and legs, slowing her harried breaths. Soon enough, Ava was once again able to lose herself to the blessedly consistent rhythm of the music paired with the satisfying thud of her sneakers hitting the pavement. Soon enough, she was able to open her eyes without comparing the green of the park’s grass to the eyes of the dis
