Prologue

Rex

The howling in my brain is so loud that I can’t stand it anymore. I drop to my knees on the soft blanket of pine needles littering the forest floor and grip my head in my hands. I had to cut my hair short so that I wouldn’t pull out chunks in my fists like I did the first time this happened. The first time she did this to me. It needs to stop. I know it’s my fault, and allowing this to continue is a kind of masochism.

I should just let her go.

But I need it too, as unhealthy as that is. I need to feel every last dagger to my heart. I need it, because when I feel this pain, the pure agony of knowing my mate is being intimate with someone else, I remember to hate her. To hate her with every fibre of my being.

It forces me to remember the torture she has put me through. The absolute betrayal of our sacred bond that she has committed. And it calls a halt to any lingering thoughts I might have of us someday working things out.

At least for a while.

It’s long enough to stop me from doing something stupid, like racing to her side and begging her to give us a chance. I don’t want that… and I don’t want her. I just need to remember that and etch it into my soul. She humiliated me once, and I barely survived. I won’t give her the chance to do it again.

It’s almost become my mantra. One played on repeat in my head after having my heart torn to shreds.

I need this. I need the pain. The rage is what I need.

My wolf bursts out from the confines of my body, out for blood, out for revenge. There is no vengeance to find here, though. The person I’m furious with is long gone.

Feral and dangerous, he’s not safe to be around anyone else. It’s the main reason I stay away from the pack and the town, so I can’t take it out on anyone else. Only me.

I settle for working out my all-consuming anger another way and do what I do every time she is with her new man. I run and keep running. It’s all I can do until I can’t even walk, let alone stand.

Branches and trees fly past in a blur as I push my wolf to the point of exhaustion, not caring where we are or where we are going. By the time I find my way home, staggering and bloody, I hate her again, and all is well.

At least for a while.
