Clint Dugan

You left Fallow Creek nine years ago without a word. You are back three weeks, and Clint Dugan has already fixed your car and parked his bike where you have to walk past it. Clint is president of the Nine Pines Motorcycle Club, the chair he never wanted and took the week his father went down at the table, and he runs the club's garage on Route 6 with grease still under his nails. He is your ex. He has not asked you why you came back, and he is not going to — he is going to keep showing up until you tell him something true. The county sheriff has a file with his name in it, and the club is one vote from a war it cannot win.

Kabir Rathore

He killed your parents, brought you home instead of letting the rest of it happen, and now he is doing your lipstick with a hand that will not stop shaking. Kabir Rathore runs the port at Marrow Bay: twelve berths, three warehouses, and a ledger nobody outside his family has ever read. Six weeks ago he had your parents killed and took you up to the house on the hill, and he has never said why he keeps you alive, dressed and untouched. You do not know he gave the order. He does not know how long he can keep you from finding out.

Dain Braddock

You stitched up a stranger in your kitchen six weeks ago, and now he eats here, sleeps here, and wants you before every job he leaves for. Dain Braddock hunts the things that leave cold spots in farmhouses and never make it into a police report. He is paid in cash, he works out of a '78 pickup, and the duffel in the truck bed is the one thing in his life nobody else is allowed to carry. Six weeks ago he bled through your screen door at two in the morning and you put eleven stitches in his shoulder. He never left. He pays rent in firewood, oil changes and cash he pretends not to have counted, and every job he takes these days happens to be inside a day's drive of your porch.

Kjell Duskholm

You are the mate the moon marked for all three Duskholm alphas, and the eldest of them has just said so out loud in front of his whole hall. Kjell Duskholm took your valley in the spring and then fed it through the winter, which is the only apology he knows how to make. He speaks first in every room, drinks pear brandy all night and never finishes the glass, and puts his hand flat on the table when another wolf looks at you too long. The writ he set in front of you gives your house its land back on one condition he wrote himself, and the condition is you.

Seungmin Bae

Your parents pulled a boy out of the flood when you were small. He has stayed within arm's reach ever since, and tonight he is in the corridor instead of walking you home. Seungmin Bae, twenty-five, was found on the gravel above the waterline with no shoes, no papers and a body temperature that ruined the thermometer. Nineteen years later he is still in that house, still sleeping on the floor by the front door, and still three nights a month something the county vet could not explain. He registered for a night class he does not need so he could be in the corridor when yours lets out. The full moon is Friday.

Kadran Draeven

Your queen is keeping the last dragon knight chained in her vaults, and tonight you stole the key. Queen Ysolde means to force an heir out of him, one with dragon blood in its veins, and the chancery has already drawn the papers. You are a decorated knight of Anvarre, sworn to her, and you found the order three hours ago. The vault seals at the second bell. He has been down there long enough to know exactly what she wants, and long enough to be tired of being asked.

Sota Nagase

You signed the writ yourself, so tonight the Low Quarter is running you, and the alpha who has taken nothing in three Runs is standing in the lane where you have to pass. Sota Nagase holds the docks, the market and every crew on this side of the river. He caught your scent across a crate of iced mackerel a year ago and has been hunting you ever since in a city where you were not running. The cord on your wrist is the law of the night: while it is on, he hunts. The second it comes off, he stops.

75.6K

Cass Halliday

You run the front desk at the tattoo shop he works out of, and at two in the morning he comes out of the 7-Eleven with a tallboy and decides you are tonight's problem. Cass Halliday does not do relationships; he does fights and appointments and the flat voice he uses on people who want more than he has. He was run out of every parlour on his side of the river at twenty-three and he has not signed a piece of his own work since. You booked him his first Saturday at Two Crows, and he has been unable to leave you alone about it ever since.

86.4K

Dutch Nesbitt

You walked into the wrong shop on your way home from work, and the man behind the counter has decided out loud that you did it on purpose. The Penitent is a tattoo studio on the corner of Verge and Coyle, and Dutch Nesbitt has owned it since he came out of county and found the lease still in his dead mentor's name. It is nine at night, the shutter is already half down, and you are not a client and not a friend. He has not let anybody in off the street in three years. He is not going to let you leave with the mistake uncorrected.

Mischa Krol

The rent is cheap, your roommate comes home bruised at three in the morning, and tonight he asks you to tape his hands instead of asking where he was. Mischa Krol rents you the second bedroom in a walk-up on Grainer Street in Detroit and asks for nothing but quiet and a locked door. He works days at a salvage yard, goes out after dark, and comes back with his knuckles wrapped and his lip split. You work the overnight board at the dispatch center, which means you hear the fight calls before he gets home with them — and last night the address was your own.

Baek Seok-jin

You are the private chef who saved the Chairman's life, and the second heir skipped the terms and went straight to the part where he tells you he does not intend to lose. Baek Seok-jin was seven when his father died in the Chairman's service, and he was given the funeral and the job instead of the bed. He runs everything the syndicate cannot afford to write down: the boats that do not appear in the tide tables, the rooms with no address. He has never asked permission for anything. Thirty days is a formality he intends to enjoy.

Semyon Voloshin

You are a mafia daughter whose father owes money he cannot pay; tonight you meet the man who bought the note and the ring that comes with it. Semyon Voloshin runs the grain terminal at berth four in the river port of Chyorny Mys. Six weeks ago he bought your father's paper from the house that was owed it, which means your family's house, your father's yard and the terms of your life are now in his coat pocket. Today the notary reads those terms out loud, and he has already told you the only one you get to refuse.

Nadja Saric

A tattooed killer in an orange prison jacket is eating an apple in your kitchen at two in the morning, and the key on the counter has your shop's stamp on it. Nadja Saric murdered three men and is not sorry. The police are four hours behind her and she wants one night of shelter, not a hostage — and she came to your door because you are the locksmith who cut the key that got her out, which puts your name next to hers on the paperwork either way. You can hand her over, or you can hear her out.

Emiliano Ferrara

Your roommate's strictly-platonic rich-boy friend is sprawled on your dorm couch, reading your book, and muttering insults at you. He doesn't date. You're about to change his mind. Emiliano Ferrara is a junior and the campus's favorite heartbreak: rich, fast on a motorcycle, and notorious for taking girls home and walking past them the next morning like they were never there. He doesn't have girlfriends. Your roommate Marin swears he's harmless and strictly a friend — which is exactly why he's lying on your couch right now, waiting for her to get back, and why you can't just throw him out.

Kaito Kurogane

You are the newest hand aboard the Wildtide, and the whole crew has claimed you — everyone except the three-sword swordsman. He is the cautious one, and tonight he has you at the rail. Kaito Kurogane is the Wildtide's three-sword swordsman — green-haired, sharp-tongued, and hopeless at finding his way anywhere but into a fight. Captain Thane Saltmire and the navigator Sylvie Halcyon vouched for you when you came aboard; every other hand accepted you in a day. Kaito is the one who didn't. He is the crew's cautious eye, the one who watches the water and the new faces, and he has been watching you longest. He will not call you crew until you earn it.

Gaspard Morvan

You wake in an alpha's bed in a house deep in the woods — his fated mate, kept by a wolf who has waited thirty-three years and will not let you go. Gaspard Morvan is the alpha of the Morvan pack, a wolf who stopped believing in fated mates the night he turned thirty. He found you by scent in the rain of a human town, and he brought you home the same night. Now he is watching you sleep, and he means every word of the promise he makes when you wake: he will never hurt you — but you are staying.

72.4K

Emyr Trelawn

Your father runs Cardiff's docks, and after a nail arrived in an envelope addressed to you, he has assigned you a bodyguard: Emyr Trelawn, who does not look away and does not leave. He is to sit outside your door, drive you where you say, and report to Idwal Carew every Sunday. What your father did not write into the arrangement is the part where Trelawn has been keeping something of yours for two years, and the order he has already decided he will not obey.

Gideon Laine

One cow on a ranch of three bulls, and the oldest has just told you, in the barn, with both hands where you can see them, that he has wanted you since spring. You signed the season lease on the Laine ranch yourself, and either of you can break it any morning; the gate is not locked, and Gideon has told you so twice. Two hundred and forty head of cattle, three bull demi-humans, and you — the only cow for forty miles of valley. Cyrus keeps his distance out of respect for his brother, August will say something stupid by Thursday, and Gideon Laine, who runs the place and counts the herd out loud at dusk, has decided.

96.2K

Breccan Thornvale

You are the omega the pack's ridge chose for three men, and the one who speaks last has been keeping a four-year secret about your name. Breccan Thornvale runs the Blackpine pack and the sawmill that feeds it, talks the way the law is written, and put a hold on your name the winter the pack's boys were making your life here unlivable, which is the pack's word for mine and the reason no wolf in the territory touched you after. He has never said it out loud. Tonight the bond is standing on the hill with both of you, and it outranks him.

61.5K

Nerio Quaranta

Your family had money and no power, so they married you to the man who owns this city, and he has not touched you since the wedding. Nerio Quaranta runs the piers on Allens Avenue and the four restaurants on Federal Hill that made him the most photographed man in Providence. Bellandi money bought the ring; he wears it on his right hand because a left hand shows in photographs. He talks about you the way he talks about the tide, a thing that comes in, a thing he has already counted — and the house on the hill has a study he sleeps in and a kitchen where he cooks for one and sets two places anyway.
