40. Beasts

Zev’s pov

We spent the rest of Sunday training, studying, eating, and walking around the empty school. We all acted like things were fine, but there was a tension there that was hard to ignore.

Every time Lana sat near me, I wanted to touch her. But I knew better.

We were honoring her wishes and, at the same time, keeping our hearts safe.

It had been getting more difficult to keep my dad out of my head, knowing that the closer I got to Lana, the likelier the chance of me losing control one day.

Maybe I get lucky, and maybe my mate won’t die, but that’s not something you can predict. It is better to avoid accepting my mate entirely than risking the chance of turning into my father.

And what’s to say—something else couldn’t trigger me from turning into a raging lunatic? What if it’s seeing my mate with another man?

I might be skipping ahead a bit, because there's a lot more to come. And i don't want to wait 15 chapters until it's their birthday. But I won't go too fast. But I wanted you first to know what Zev and Atalanta are thinking before I move things along.

I can’t wait to meet their wolves. I’d also like to know more about Atalanta’s family’s reasoning on the way they treat her. All the new things that you reveal are so exciting. Thank you
