Broken Bonds: Beyond Destiny 61
SophiaI wanted to go home. The day had already been long enough to make me not want to stay a minute longer at the company. Mom was waiting for me with lunch ready. Not that she had cooked, of course, she spent her days resting. Ever since she had that health scare, I’ve had the perfect excuse to stay at my parents' house, though I wasn’t sure how long that would last. I knew that sooner or later I’d have to tell my parents that someone was following me and we had no idea who it could be.I was behind on work because I had taken over Mom’s tasks. We had a meeting in the morning where I had to see Bright, and I left it feeling drained from how uncomfortable it was. Dante hadn’t been there (the meeting didn’t involve him) but it was so exhausting that I was grateful he hadn’t shown up. Everything would have been worse.I was sitting behind the front desk, organizing documents that had fallen to the floor. I had to take the time to put them back in order.But I felt his presence. It was
Broken Bonds: Beyond Destiny 60
BrightI couldn't sleep at all last night. It was impossible, constantly remembering the look on Sophia’s face when she found Sabrina in my house. It’s not like I owed Sophia any explanation, but my heart was pressuring me to give one. I could barely think rationally.I was exhausted and didn’t feel like going to work because I knew she would be there, but I put on my shoes, buttoned my shirt, and made my way to the company. Sabrina, on the other hand, was still asleep and naked in my bed.I glanced at her one last time, thinking that maybe I was doing something wrong. My heart told me so, but I chose to ignore it. I wasn’t the one who brought someone into our home while she was risking her life at the border. Sophia made a decision, and I had no reason to explain anything to her or feel guilty.Unfortunately, Sophia’s words kept echoing in my head as I climbed the stairs of the pack’s building with firm, almost mechanical steps. I promised myself I wouldn’t let it get to me, but it d

SophiaI didn’t feel like getting out of bed to go to work, and even less did I want to run into Bright after the terrible night I had. I spent most of the night crying without finding any comfort until I finally fell asleep. When I finally managed to drift off, it was already time to wake up. The alarm clock woke me, and reality came crashing back.The morning air was thick and humid as if the storm of emotions from the night before hadn’t fully cleared. I walked through the hallways of the company with a hard expression, but inside, every step hurt. The image of Sabrina, with her sweet voice calling Bright “love,” echoed in my mind like a poisonous chant. I couldn’t forget it. I couldn’t pretend I hadn’t seen it. And even more, I couldn’t pretend it didn’t hurt. That was the reason I cried out every last tear yesterday.I arrived at my brother James’s office with determination. He was sitting at his desk, looking over some papers, as if the world hadn’t collapsed last night. I knock
Broken Bonds: Beyond Destiny 58
BrightI was with Sabrina in the new apartment. She and I had been going out the past few days, and we had hooked up more than once. She almost always came to see me after work, and it was nice to hang out with someone. I used to love being alone. Now I couldn’t stand it. Not since I lived with her and had to leave.I didn’t think opening my apartment door would hurt so much. I didn’t think she would be the one I’d find on the other side.When I saw Sophia standing there, with those papers in her hand and that look that always pierces right through me like an arrow, I felt the air leave my lungs. Seeing her shocked me because I wasn’t expecting her to be the one knocking. Much less like that. Not when I still hadn’t recovered from our last awkward conversation, when she noticed the hickey on my neck and it took nearly all my willpower not to explain how it got there. Not when I’d been thinking about her for days, trying to convince myself that it was best to move on. That it was no lo

SophiaI was furious with my brother for asking me to take the company papers to Bright. I didn’t want to go. I didn’t want to face him again. I couldn’t do it. To be honest, I did want to see him, to be near him, but it was so uncomfortable that it made me want to run from his presence. I went anyway. Bright wasn’t at the company, so the idea of going to his new apartment had made me nervous ever since James asked me that morning. That’s what he wanted me to do.I refused. James knew what had happened between Bright and me, and I didn’t want to go."Take them to him, Sophia. It’s urgent. He needs to sign them today." James said it firmly, but his eyes, as always, seemed to know more than his words let on."But..." I tried to protest."Sophia, we’ve been arguing about this for ten minutes. Can you just set your personal issues aside and do what I’m asking? I’m busy, I have a meeting soon, and I don’t have time to go myself. You need to be responsible."I sighed. He was right, but I di
Broken Bonds: Beyond Destiny 56
SophiaI had overdue work to finish and a pile of papers on my desk that I needed to go through. Since Mom stopped working on doctor’s orders, Dad asked me to take care of her responsibilities so she could rest peacefully. Mom would return to work soon, but in the meantime, I was the one who had to handle everything. It was a lot of responsibility, and I wanted to do it right so my parents would see they could trust me with the company.But I was tired. Especially that day. I felt exhausted. I’d slept very little, my mind tangled up with the photos, the message, the fear of feeling watched. James made sure my parents didn’t suspect what was going on with me. He told them it would be a good idea for me to stay with them for a while so I could be close to Mom, caring for her and giving her affection. Mom was thrilled to have me at the house, so I didn’t feel like a burden.Dad didn’t like the idea of having more than six werewolves guarding the house all day, but James told him it was p

BrightI was at the apartment I rented. After several days of wandering and sleeping in my office at the company, I had no choice but to move out of there. I couldn't turn my office into my bedroom at the same time. I needed a place with my comfort.I placed the electric kettle on the counter and plugged it in, but I got a message from James that caught my attention. I felt the urgency in his words and knew I’d have to leave soon to meet him. I also knew this wasn’t just any meeting.I thought it might be about the pack. Something had happened. Maybe someone new had disappeared. Just the thought gave me a headache. This crap couldn’t go on forever.“Come to the office. I need to talk to you. It’s urgent, Bright.”No jokes. No casual tone. Just the authority of the Alpha and the weight of something I didn’t yet understand. I replied that I was on my way. I changed clothes, got my car from the parking lot, and headed to his house. He was waiting for me there.I got there in less than fi
Broken Bonds: Beyond Destiny 54
SophiaIt had been a long time since I’d slept peacefully. I didn’t know if it was because I had left the house where Bright’s memories consumed me, or because, after so long, I finally felt like I was in a real home. I had always loved my parents’ house and loved living there. I have always enjoyed it. But I got married, and started my own life, and everything changed for me. Then I got separated. After that, I came back one night after being threatened by strangers.And there I was. Lying on my old bed, in my old room, in the house of my childhood. I felt calm because my parents’ house had top-level security, and I had asked two werewolves to guard the house from the car. But my peace was shattered when I heard a desperate scream.It was my father’s voice. Something was wrong.My calm vanished in a second. My first thought was that someone had broken into the house to attack us. I couldn’t stay there if my parents were in danger.I jumped out of bed like I’d been sprung by a coil an
Broken Bonds: Beyond Destiny 53
SophiaI knew that staying locked in the meeting room and waiting for everyone to arrive was going to drive me crazy. Bright’s cologne mixed with Dante’s scented the room and haunted me like ghosts.I stood up slowly, picked up my folder, pretended I needed to review some documents, and walked out of the room without saying a word. There was no one to pretend for anyway. They had left me alone there. I walked down the hallway in silence, greeting the floor receptionist with a slight nod.“Miss Sophia, I left an envelope that just arrived at the company. It’s for you. It’s on your desk.”I felt annoyed.“Call me Miss, Daniela. I’m a single woman,” I reminded her, feeling humiliated.“I’m sorry, Miss,” she apologized with a smile.I entered my office and closed the door behind me. Forcing smiles was going to be a hard task that day.I leaned against the door for a moment. I felt sheltered in my office, away from everyone else. But I wasn’t that far from Bright, because his office was ri
