FAZER LOGINKael's POVI pressed down harder on the accelerator, weaving through traffic like the world depended on it. My jaw was tight, my knuckles white against the steering wheel."Slow down before you kill us," Draven muttered beside me, but his voice lacked its usual bite. He was staring out the window, his jaw clenched just as tight as mine."We need to get there now," I said through gritted teeth."We will. But not if we crash on the way."I wanted to argue, but he was right. I forced myself to ease up, just slightly, even though every instinct in me screamed to go faster."Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck," I muttered. "How could this happen?"Draven didn't respond. He just kept staring ahead, his fingers drumming against his thigh.By the time we pulled up to the company, my heart was pounding. Smoke poured from the upper floors, thick and dark, billowing into the sky. People were streaming out of the building, coughing and stumbling."Fuck," Draven breathed.We were out of the car before it even

Elara's POV “You won't even let me work with my father?” I asked in despair and Rowan scoffed. “You want me to stay here and suffer like your slave?”“I know what you want to do, Elara. And I won't allow it. My words are final. You will stay home and not leave until I allow you to.” He growled and I pulled at my hair in frustration.“What do you want from me, Rowan?” I asked in despair. “I've given you everything you've ever asked for. But you won't even let me live my life in peace? What have I done to you? Was it a crime to love you?” “I don't give a damn about your sentimental acts, Elara!” He yelled and I flinched in shock. “I'm your husband. I won't let you go out there to fuck other men when I didn't give you permission to.” He growled and I scoffed in disbelief.“So this is what it's about. Me fucking other men. You think I'm as promiscuous as you are? You think I'd throw myself at anyone just because you do the same?” I yelled back and he suddenly grabbed my chin harshly as
Kael's POV She chuckled, though the sound was weak."Why are you laughing?" I asked, a smile tugging at my lips despite the worry churning in my chest."I'm so happy to see you again." Her voice was soft, but the warmth in her eyes made my heart clench.I moved closer, sitting on the edge of the bed. "Draven's in the bathroom," she said.I reached out, cupping her face gently, careful not to touch any of the bandages. "I missed you so much, baby," I said, my voice low. "I thought I'd lost you.""You didn't." She leaned into my touch, her eyes closing for a moment. "You never will."I kissed her then, soft and slow, pouring every ounce of fear, relief, and love into it. Her lips were warm, and when she sighed against me, something inside me settled."Don't ever do that again," I muttered against her mouth. "Don't leave like that. Not without us.""I didn't leave," she whispered. "I was taken.""You shouldn't go to Rowan alone. I'm sorry we didn't tell you what happened, but this is w
Elara's POV"There's no one out there."Kael's voice was calm, reassuring, but I saw the tension in his shoulders as he walked back inside. His jaw was tight, his eyes scanning the room like he expected someone to jump out from the shadows."Are you sure?" I asked, my voice small.He pulled me into his arms, his hand stroking my hair."I'm sure. You're safe."But I wasn't convinced. The way he held me felt protective, almost desperate.Draven appeared behind him, his eyes dark and unreadable. "Maybe you're just exhausted," he said. "It's been a long day."I wanted to argue, to tell them I knew what I saw. But the way they both looked at me, like they needed me to believe them, made me swallow my words. "Okay," I whispered.Kael kissed my forehead. "Let's get you to bed."I nodded, letting them guide me upstairs.But sleep didn't come easy. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the shadow outside the window. Watching me.******Training the next morning was brutal.Draven pushed me harder
Draven's POV I returned empty-handed, looking quite frustrated. My car had vanished without a trace—no signs of struggle, no broken glass, nothing. Just gone. Someone was deliberately screwing with us. I broke through the trees, already calling out to her. "Elara, I couldn't find—" I froze. She was on the ground, crumpled like a discarded doll. My heart lurched violently in my chest. "Elara!" I rushed to her side, dropping to my knees. "What happened? Did someone attack you? Talk to me!" She didn't respond. Her face had gone completely pale, drained of all color. She just kept pointing weakly at something on the ground, her hand trembling violently. "What is it? What are you—" Then I saw something written right there with something that smelled like blood and was definitely blood: WE'RE WATCHING Why the hell was Rowan doing all these? I grabbed her immediately, hauling her up into my arms. "We're leaving. Now." "Draven, what does it mean? Who's watching us?" Her voice ca
Elara's POV I instantly noticed what was wrong with him. It wasn't that it was easy, there was just something wrong. I didn't even know what else to do about it. I wanted to keep shut, but he was my mate. I couldn't allow that happen. I had to make sure that he was fine at all times. I tried my b
Elara's Pov My curiosity was getting the best of me. Draven didn't want to spill what they both were doing, so I decided to go find out myself. “Draven had said Kael was in the backyard dealing with someone,” I reminded myself. “I have to go take a look because they are both acting suspicious,” I
Elara’s PovI sat up on my bed, rubbing my eyes. It had been a long day and I was already exhausted. “Draven and Kael spent so much time discussing something, I wonder what it's about,” I said inwardly, still trying to get the sleep off my eyes. “What happened?” I heard Draven ask. His voice had s
