Jace

When I returned to the east wing that evening, the sky had already turned dark blue, and silence filled the hallways of the pack house.

Lexi had brought Willow her dinner, and I'd deliberately waited another hour before visiting her. I didn't want her to feel as though I was constantly guarding her or forcing my presence on her.

The realization I'd come to that afternoon, that my mere proximity triggered physical terror in her, still burned through my chest like corrosive acid.

I stopped o

    WillowThe training room in the basement of the pack house was enormous, the air filled with the scent of leather, chalk dust, and a dull, metallic tension.Mirrors covered the walls, thick black training mats lined the floor, and at one end of the room stood rows of weapon racks filled with equipment I couldn't even begin to identify.Jace stood in the middle of the room with his back to me.He had already taken off his shirt. The muscles stretching across his back and the faint, silvery scars left by previous battles almost glowed beneath the fluorescent ceiling lights.The bruising around his broken rib had already begun to fade, thanks to the incredible regenerative abilities of werewolves, but he still moved a little more carefully on that side.He walked over to the weapon rack and removed a dagger roughly eight inches long, its handle wrapped in black leather.When he turned and approached me, my stomach tightened slightly.I wasn't afraid of h

    WillowThe drive back to the pack house was completely different from our triumphant journey that morning.The interior of the black SUV was wrapped in a thick, suffocating silence.Jace gripped the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles had turned completely white, the veins in his arms standing out beneath his skin.His jaw was clenched, and his eyes were fixed on the road as though he could set the asphalt on fire through sheer force of will.Although neither of us spoke, the air practically crackled with the fury raging inside him.Lexi sat silently in the back seat, staring out the window, while Zane and Caleb's vehicle followed so closely behind us that their bumper almost touched ours, as though they were forming an invisible wall around us.Slowly, I reached out and placed my trembling, cold fingers on Jace's thigh.He reacted immediately.Taking one hand off the steering wheel, he wrapped it around mine, enclosing my fingers tightly

    JaceWhen I pressed down the heavy handle of the girls' bathroom door and pulled it open, the excited murmuring from the hallway fell silent in a single second.The air froze.Chloe and Emma weren't the only ones standing there, pressed against the wall. That entire section of the hallway was practically packed with students.The high school gossip mill worked at the speed of light. The two girls' hysterical escape from the bathroom had immediately attracted a crowd of curious spectators.I stepped out first, but I didn't let go of Willow's hand for even a moment.Our fingers were intertwined so tightly that our skin almost seemed to merge.My posture was confident, my gaze ice cold and regal as I surveyed the crowd.I wasn't walking across the filthy floor of some high school.This was my throne room now.And I was introducing them to my queen.I gently drew Willow forward until she stood directly beside me in the hallway light.My wo

    WillowThe world had ceased to exist within the four walls of the bathroom.The thoughts roaring through my head, the terror I had carried for years, and every threat waiting beyond those walls had all been swept away by the boy who was currently pressing me against the cold marble sink.Jace's kiss was like raw, destructive fire.It consumed everything it touched.His lips moved against mine with demanding intensity, yet beneath that hunger lay a depth of adoration I could barely comprehend.The same hands that had torn the pack's enemies apart with sheer brute strength yesterday now held my waist with such warmth and certainty that I felt like the most precious thing in his entire miserable life.I tightened my legs around his hips and buried my fingers deeper into his dark hair.A muffled, satisfied growl rose from his throat, sending a shiver straight beneath my skin.I had completely lost control.Me.The girl who had always been so c

  • A Heart Bound In Shadows   Chapter 28

    WillowSchool had never been this exhausting, even though every single day of the past few years had felt like a battle for survival.But this kind of exhaustion was entirely different.It wasn't fear draining my energy.It was the constant, intense, almost tangible electricity crackling between Jace and me.The pack's heir had kept his promise.He hadn't left me alone for a single minute.When we sat in biology class, his chair was so close to mine that our thighs touched. When we walked through the hallways, one of his hands was always resting on my waist.The only problem was that after our dark, tense conversation the previous night and our triumphant entrance that morning, something had permanently shifted between us.I no longer saw him as a bodyguard protecting a fragile glass figurine.And he no longer treated me like a terrified victim.He had realized I wasn't afraid of him anymore.And that realization had awakened something

  • A Heart Bound In Shadows   Chapter 27

    WillowThe Monday morning sunlight streamed sharply through the window of the guest room, my room.I stood in front of the enormous full length mirror, barely recognizing the girl staring back at me.For years, my wardrobe had served only one purpose.To hide.I wore oversized, worn out sweaters and stretched jeans that concealed not only my bruises but also made me invisible.I blended into the walls, the desks, the shadows.But the girl in the mirror no longer belonged to the shadows.Lexi had insisted on putting together my outfit for today, and I hadn't been able to argue with her.I wore fitted black jeans paired with a burgundy sweater made from fine, soft knit fabric, its rich color bringing warmth to my complexion.On my feet were elegant but comfortable black leather boots, and draped over my shoulders was a perfectly tailored dark leather jacket, one that looked remarkably similar to the jackets Jace always wore.My hair fell fre
