Lana’s POV

What?

My breath caught, the weight of Liam’s words crashing into me like icy water as his hand clutched mine on the table. My fingers stiffened beneath his, my mind spiraling, drowning in the quiet storm swirling around us.

Alpha Kane’s laugh boomed warmly across the table, a deep rumble of pride, his silver-streaked beard shifting as he smiled. “That’s good to hear,” he said cheerfully. “It’s about time the two of you started building a future.”

Everyone smiled politely. Everyone but Damon.

I shouldn’t have looked, but my eyes betrayed me, drawn to him as though pulled by invisible threads. His face was still, carved from stone, but his silver-gray gaze burned like wildfire across the table. It was restrained… yet dangerous. There was something untamed in his stare, something unspoken but sharp enough to slice through my composure.

I swallowed hard and quickly pulled my hand back from Liam’s grasp, hiding it in my lap beneath the folds of my dress. I lowered my gaze, forci

    Dave's POV A chuckle bubbled up in my chest, then burst out of me—a loud, astonished sound that echoed in the quiet dining room. I slapped my good hand on the table, making the silverware jump.“She’s jealous!” I said the words, feeling incredible in my mouth. “She’s actually jealous! All this time, all I had to do was get with another woman, and it finally got a real reaction out of her!”The world suddenly looked different. The colors were brighter. The weight I’d been carrying for six years felt lighter. This was the key. This was the crack in her icy armor.I started pacing, my mind racing a mile a minute. “Okay, okay. So next time she tries to give me the cold shoulder, I’ll just… I’ll mention running into that girl from last night. Or maybe I’ll show up to the next pack gathering with someone on my arm. Yeah! I’ll make sure she sees. I’ll—”“Dave.”Damon’s voice cut through my planning, cold and flat, like a bucket of ice water dumped over my head. I stopped pacing and looked a

    Damon's POVThe silence at the breakfast table was louder than any argument. You could feel the anger rolling off Dave in hot, bitter waves, and the cold fury coming from Sheila was like a block of ice. It was obvious something big had gone down between the two hotheaded mates. My wolf stirred, agitated by the hostile energy. I just wish their drama wasn’t ruining the first proper morning I had with Lana.Lana, sweet thing, tried to cut through the tension. She took a small bite of her eggs and put on a bright, fake smile. “This is really delicious,” she said, her voice a little too cheerful. “The hollandaise sauce is perfect.”Nothing. Dave stared at a fixed point on the wall behind Sheila’s head. Sheila took a slow sip of her orange juice, her eyes blank and far away. They might as well have been alone in the room.I leaned closer to Lana, my voice dropping to a murmur meant just for her. “Let them be, my love.”She turned her head and glared at me. And that look said everything. Do

    Lana’s POV The look on his face said it all. That little smirk, the fire in his eyes—he knew. He knew that after the drug had worn off, in the deep, quiet part of the night, I’d said those words to him. I’d spoken willingly. My sober self had been buried under layers of exhaustion and something else, something scarier… a feeling of being safe. And he’d heard it. Now, in the harsh light of morning, he was starving to hear it again. He was a man dying of thirst, and my confession was his only water.But I couldn’t. Saying it now, with my head clear and my shame wide awake, felt like tearing my own heart out and handing it to him.“I really, really need the toilet,” I pleaded, my voice shaking. I tried to push past him, but my struggling just made me press closer, my legs accidentally clamping around his waist as he held me.His eyes went from hot to molten. The playful teasing was gone, replaced by a raw, intense need that stole the air from my lungs.“Damon, please,” I cried, the tear

    Dave's POV The world got a little swimmy for a second, the bright lights of the party blurring into a haze. My knees felt weak, so I just dropped onto the fancy chair behind me. The red on my hand wasn't wine anymore. It was mine, welling up thick and dark between my fingers where the glass was buried.Sheila was there in a heartbeat, her face all pale and panicked. "Dave, stop it. Just let go," she pleaded, her voice shaky. Her hands, those perfect, manicured hands I'd dreamed about for years, wrapped around my bloody fist. She tried to pry my fingers open, her touch so gentle it made me want to scream.It just made me hold on tighter. The glass bit deeper, a sharp, clean pain that was nothing, nothing compared to the hollow ache in my chest. This was the only thing that felt real."Let me help you, you idiot!" she cried, her nails digging into my skin.But I wasn't her good little puppy now. I wasn't going to heel. I looked up at her, at the tears in her eyes that I knew were more

    Dave's POV For a long second, Sheila just stared at me. Her mouth, usually so quick with a cutting remark, was slightly open. No sound came out. Her eyes were wide, the sharp, clever glint in them gone, replaced by something I hadn’t seen in years… shock. Maybe even a flicker of fear. My words—I’m yours for life—hung in the air between us, a challenge and a promise she couldn’t just brush off.I held her gaze, my wolf stirring with a low, satisfied rumble in my chest. Finally. Finally, she sees us. To keep my hands from shaking, I snagged a glass of wine from a waiter gliding past. I took a slow sip, the bitter red liquid doing nothing to calm the fire in my veins. I didn’t look away from her. I wanted to remember this, the one time I’d truly rendered Sheila Silverman speechless.Then my phone buzzed in my pocket, a harsh, modern interruption. I almost ignored it, but the Alpha-in-training part of my brain kicked in. I pulled it out, my eyes still locked on Sheila. The screen flashe

    Sheila’s POV The champagne flute in my hand felt like a lead weight. All around me, the party buzzed—a low, happy hum of chatter and clinking glasses and that damn string quartet. I usually loved these things. The noise, the gossip, the way you could just disappear into the crowd. But tonight, every laugh felt too loud, every smile felt fake. My skin was crawling.I stood by the grand window, staring out at the dark gardens, but I wasn’t seeing anything. My mind was back in that hallway, watching Damon carry her out in his arms.I felt someone sidle up next to me before I heard him. It was Dave, of course. It was always Dave.“She’ll be fine, you know,” he said, his voice too cheerful. He bumped my shoulder with his, a clumsy attempt at comfort. I didn’t look at him. “You think she'll just be fine, Dave?”“Um,” He shifted his weight. “Well… yes.” He said it like a question, hoping it was the right answer.I finally turned my head, giving him a look that could freeze fire. “Those bas
