Summary
Rey and Finn go out on a cold night to participate in the grand New York Jewish tradition of Banging These Bastards A Kettle About It, and the police, they don't like it so much. Caught with a fake ID and no residency papers, Rey is dragged into a scheme to infiltrate and spy on activist groups. Detective Kyle O'Ryan, who would very much prefer you didn't inquire too closely about his legal name or his family background or why he never seems to mind working on Christmas, is supposed to be her police liaison, but his badge is getting heavier every day.
The righteous and the wicked, they will be judged together.

Summary
Rey huffs and leans in close to him, biting out in a furious whisper: “Why the fuck do you care so much, huh? Why are you doing this? Just buy your stupid overpriced groceries and get out of my check out line.”
“Because you shouldn’t fucking be here.” Ben growls. “You’re an architect. A damn good one. And -”
“How the fuck would you know how good I ever was, huh? Maybe I’m all washed up. Maybe I’m a working here because I don’t have any better options and I’m just trying to make a fucking living.”
“That’s not it.” he shakes his head emphatically.
“You don’t know me, Ben.” she hisses.
---
Rey turns her back on a career she loves when her dream job turns its back on her. Ben tries to bring her back to the land of the living.

Summary
The sky over Montana is a dangerous shade of blue the night they find her. She’s twenty-two years old and nothing more than a swelling storm—nearly feral, with sharp teeth and years of dirt caked under her nails.
When the truck pulls up next to her on a darkened road twenty miles from town, she's covered in Plutt's blood. She's stone faced as she stares at his overturned Chevy, listening to a symphony of last breaths—the truck's and his—and thinking about how she’d light him on fire if she had a match.
She’ll settle on coming back here once the wreckage is clear and salting the earth.

Summary
“You’ll be safe here. No Alpha will ever see you. Except for him,” her smile is sad as she peppers in a mention of the Alpha as an afterthought. “He’s our caretaker. He mostly fixes things around the convent and attends mass with us. He won’t issue any commands to you.”
Rey doesn’t move until the breeze from the window drops the scent. Even distant, it’s strong.
Bazine snorts at Rose, her drumming abandoned for now. Rey does hope this isn’t a common habit for a roommate.
“In order to issue commands, he’d have to talk. At all.”
Bazine emphasizes this by making a cutting motion with her hand across her throat.

Summary
After a French notary contacts Rey to inform her she's inherited a house in the Drôme (France), she decides from one day to the next to quit her job and move there.
The house is pretty secluded, there's no service, no internet, no way to reach other people aside from the landline in the living-room.
Ideal conditions, by her standards, as those theoretically should allow her to be perfectly alone.
Theoretically.
