Chapter 21: The Luna Falls
Corbin stood in front of the bench with his bandaged hand pressed flat against his thigh.
He looked at me first.
Then, for a long moment, at his mother.
"Sit down, Corbin," Imogen said.
"No," he said.
His voice cracked.
He turned his back on her and faced the four Alphas.
"The night I took the seat, she sat on the end of my bed," he said. "Like she used to when I had fevers."
"She said I'd marry Neve and get one pup on her, and then I'd be done with her."
"Done how?" the white-bearded Alpha asked.
Corbin's jaw worked.
"She said I'd know what to do when the time came. She said she'd show me."
The hall had gone so quiet I could hear the snow sliding on the skylight.
"Before the circle," Corbin said, "she took me out to the garage."
"She had four silver caps from her jewelry box, and wire. She put them on my claws herself, with pliers."
"She said it would only burn for a little while, and that I was a big boy."
He held up his gauze-wrapped hand to the whole room.
"It's still burning."
