too, that he wants me…. Until…he blinks, snapping out of the desire he has for me only to remind himself that I am not her. I watch it, slowly. Watch the way his eyes search mine before moving down to my lips, watch the change in his eyes…he doesn’t need to say the words, I can see it play
~ Jace ~ “Eh…what the fuck was that?” Josie’s growl echoes through her own cabin, bouncing off the wooden built walls. What was that, what have I just done. I lost myself in her, in the need to touch her…to be near her. I’ve potentially just ruined everything. “Josie, can you give us a minute?

“I’m not using her.” “Then what are you doing, because you can’t have them both.” “I don’t expect to have them both, she left last night, I didn’t go after her.” My lack of action in chasing after Cleo has sealed our fate. With that and ghosting her after the hotel night, I’ll be the last person s
Kaia POVMy own mate rejected me on our wedding night. As soon as I signed the marriage certificate and prepared to consummate our new life together...he rejected me.“I, Than Sable, Alpha of the Amber Desert Pack, reject you Kaia Glace as my Luna.” I remember his cruel cutting words as if they were

~ Cleo ~ He is not mine, he is not mine. I need to repeat it to myself internally as his coconut scent cocoons itself around me, something invisible to the naked eye…yet I feel it, it can’t just be me. I can’t be imagining the power he holds over me. I finally have him alone, I need to tel
If I sneak out now, nobody will notice. I know I shouldn’t, that I should stay well clear but I can’t. It goes against my very nature knowing she is somewere alone in pain…pain that unbeknown to her, I am causing. I don’t need help tracing her movements, her sweet scent still lingers in the cool
