How she would react

• BITTEN   The reason

  Kara’s POV“Kara, are you sure about this?”“Yes, I am. Follow him.”We were back in the car, the tension thick in the air as we trailed the red sports car that zoomed ahead on the highway. My gaze never left it for a second, eyes narrowed, jaw tight. Rodrigo drove a few safe miles behind, his fingers tapping the steering wheel in restrained anticipation.My gut never really failed me. Every time it clenched like this, every time that feeling crawled under my skin, I was right. And I felt it now, loud and urgent.We drove for nearly two long hours. The city lights faded behind us, swallowed by an eerie stillness as we entered the outskirts. He was leading us somewhere quiet… somewhere hidden.We arrived at a hospital. Old, forgotten. Standing in the shadow of trees, its exterior worn and crumbling like a relic of another time.“What could he be hiding in a hospital? And one like this?” Bryson asked, frowning.The place looked abandoned, overgrown vines clutching at broken walls, shatt

• BITTEN   Mr Graves

  KARA POVThe room smelled of musk and tobacco. A dim amber light flickered from an antique lamp in the corner, casting long shadows across the wood-paneled walls. A fireplace, unused but grand sat behind the tall man standing before us.He looked like he’d stepped out of a mobster movie. Black hair slicked back, a perfectly trimmed mustache perched above his lips. The lines on his face spoke of years, but age hadn’t taken his charm. If anything, it sharpened him. He looked to be in his fifties, but he wore that age like armor proud, and untouchable.The smirk stretched across his lips like it had been carved there. Arrogant. Unbothered. Like nothing in this world could touch him.“You’re too late,” he said, voice smooth, careless.Bryson stepped forward, arms crossed tight. “What do you mean? Selene sent us to you.”The man’s eyes, dark and sharp like storm clouds before lightning, flicked to Bryson. “Then she sent you to the wrong person.”That glare, cold and calculated slid over

• BITTEN   Running out of time

  KARA’S POVThe soft clang of metal echoed outside the window. I stood still, one hand resting against the cool glass, watching the guards train below. They moved with sharp focus, muscles taut with discipline. It was a simple scene routine, almost, but it grounded me for a moment. Gave me something to look at that wasn’t tied to the chaos in my heart.But my thoughts didn’t stay there.They pulled me back—back to earlier, back to the look on Dylan’s face when I gave the order to release Nia.His silence had said everything. The tight line of his jaw, the flash of betrayal in his eyes, the way his whole body went still. He hadn’t argued. He didn’t need to. I’d felt the weight of his disappointment press into my chest, even as I stood firm.I had to do it. There was no other way.Nia was still family, whether Dylan wanted to accept that or not. She was Theon’s mate. Killing her, keeping her locked away... it wouldn’t fix anything. It wouldn’t make me safer, wouldn’t make the bond strong

• BITTEN   Reminder of our time

  KARA’s povThe past five days had been nothing short of a fever dream.We did nothing but fuck, eat, and sleep in endless loops of need—our bodies tangled in sweaty sheets, our mouths never far from a gasp or a moan. That heat… it wasn’t something either of us had prepared for. We never even talked about it, And now I understood why.No one could explain what that kind of hunger felt like.The ache. The burn. The way my body betrayed every rational thought, every fear. I needed him like I needed oxygen, and Dylan—he gave himself to me without restraint. My Alpha took care of me, owned me, fucked me like I was the only woman left in this world. And he was the only man who could ease that hellish fire that spread through every nerve in my body.It was magic, and it was madness.Pain laced with euphoria. My body opened to him in ways I never knew it could. He explored every inch of me like I was sacred ground and he was starving. And I—God, I loved it.But even now, as the scent of him

• BITTEN   That’s mine, all of it.

  Dylan’s POVShe was limp in my arms, body glistening with sweat, face buried in my neck, breath warm against my collarbone.We were both still naked—our bodies tangled on the couch like animals in the aftermath of war. Her thighs were streaked with the evidence of what we’d done, her skin still flushed, her heart still racing beneath the curve of her ribs. But she didn’t speak.Not a word.The fire crackled low, shadows dancing across the wooden beams overhead. Her body rested on mine, but her mind… her mind was somewhere else.And I felt it. Every mile she drifted.I didn’t move. I just held her tighter. Listened to her breathing, counted the pauses between each inhale. Silence had never felt this loud.Her fingers were still curled slightly at my chest, but there was no pressure behind them now. Just her hand resting there like a forgotten memory.I exhaled, dragged my palm up her spine, and whispered, “You’re quiet.”She didn’t answer.“Tell me what’s in your head, Kara.”Still not

• BITTEN   Far from over

  Dylan’s POVThe water steamed around us, Kara’s heat flaring with every shallow breath she took. We'd been in the tub nearly an hour now, her body a constant furnace, overheating the water each time it began to cool. I had to keep draining and refilling it, over and over again, but it didn’t matter. I would’ve done it all night if I had to.She lay between my legs, back resting against my chest, her head lolled to the side. Her skin was damp and flushed, and I could feel her heartbeat thrumming like a war drum against my chest. I held her tighter, my arms banded around her like steel.“Breathe, baby…” I whispered, lips brushing the shell of her ear. “I’ve got you. Just breathe through it. You’re safe here. With me.”Her fingers clutched my forearm, nails digging in when another wave of heat struck. I kissed the side of her neck, trying to distract her from the pain. The fire inside her was cruel—searing, merciless. My mate. My fucking mate, and I couldn’t even absorb the pain for her.
