Chapter 127** Josie’s POV **Luke collapses onto my back, both of us completely spent. We breathe heavily in tandem as we come back down to earth. Once he's recovered enough he begins placing kisses over my shoulder blades. I hear Axel and Deacon leave the room, giving me and Luke a moment alone.

“I know,” Chase says, voice distant now, like he’s already retreating into himself.I don’t look back. I don’t dare because I’m not sure what I will do. As much as he terrifies me, he’s also my bond, and it’s in my nature to want to be with him.Archie closes the door behind us and we all stand in t
Chapter 16** Harper’s POV **“Get out!” Chase growls.No one moves.The room feels like it is suspended in a breathless stillness as no one dares move or breathe. Chase’s growl rumbles against my chest, his head still resting there like I’m the only thing anchoring him to this world. I keep my arms
Chapter 15** Harper’s POV **Fear trickles down my spine as I stand in the dark apartment. I’ve been slightly afraid of the dark since living in those underground tunnels, buy I refuse to let the fear control me. I take a steadying breath and let my eyes adjust to the darkness. With every passing h
