George POV As much as I yearned to lodge a bullet straight into his skull, I knew such an act would be unwise; he possessed far greater strength than I. Slowly, I lowered the gun to my side. "I wasn't expecting you," I replied, struggling to conceal my anger. "I was in the neighborhood and thought I'd say hi to my in-law," he retorted with a smirk, advancing towards me. "Though it seems you're not too excited to see me. I would have sworn you were about to pull the trigger just now," he observed, studying me intently. Had he caught on to what I was about to do? Was he preparing to attack? The grip on my gun tightened as I mentally prepared myself for whatever would happen next. If I were to die, I wouldn't go down without a fight. But instead of launching an assault, he merely regarded me, his expression inscrutable, before erupting into laughter. "I'm just kidding... You should see the look on your face right now," he exclaimed, patting my back. "That would have been so fo

George POV The training room buzzed with energy as Becca and I circled each other, our movements fluid and instinctive. Her eyes sparkled with determination, a playful challenge dancing in her gaze. "Alright Old man, lest see what you've got!" she taunted, her voice filled with playful banter as she feigned a jab towards me. I grinned, pride swelling in my chest as I blocked her attack with ease. "You're getting faster, kiddo, but you still have a long way to go," I teased, launching into a series of quick jabs and feints to keep her on her toes. Her laughter filled the air as we danced around each other, exchanging playful blows. She was growing stronger with each passing day, her reflexes sharp and her movements graceful. But I wasn't about to let her win without a fight. With a burst of speed, I lunged forward, aiming to catch her off guard. But she was ready, sidestepping my attack with ease and seizing my outstretched arm. Before I knew it, she had flipped me onto my back,

I didn’t have time for this I needed to talk to Bas and I wasn’t going to end today without saying a word.As I marched forward, determination coursing through my veins, I swiftly gathered my hair into a ponytail, the strands clinging to my damp neck.

BAS POV I can’t stop thinking about the kiss The words echoed in my mind, tormenting me relentlessly Why couldn’t I get those words off my mind? Maybe I was too harsh on her “So,” Maddy’s voice broke through my internal turmoil, pulling me back to reality. Her eyes held a mixture of uncertainty and longing as she tentatively reached out to touch my chest. “Since we’re done for the day, I was thinking I could come over to your place,” she suggested, her voice soft yet filled with anticipation. Normally, I would have declined, but right now, I needed a distraction, something to pull me away from thoughts of Rebecca. “Sure,” I replied with a smirk, the corners of my lips curling up in a feigned nonchalance as I took her hands in mine, leading her towards my car. The evening breeze felt cool against my skin but yet every part of me burned. Gripping the wheel tightly, I drove towards my a

Bas POVThe cool water trickled down my body, its touch a feeble attempt to soothe the storm raging within me. How could I have been so careless? Why did I allow my mind to wander back to her? Controlling myself had never been a challenge, but with her, it felt like impossible. Just the thought of her made it feel like my body was burning. This feeling of longing, of having her so badly was it as a result of the mark, did my wolf crave for her so badly? It had to be.. right? Shaking my head in frustration, I grabbed my towel and stepped out of the shower. As I scanned the room, the lingering scent of Maddy hung in the air with the overwhelming sense of guilt that gnawed at my insides. I knew I had hurt her deeply.Dressing quickly, I made the decision to leave, the thought of being alone with my thoughts too unbearable to bear. As I slid into my car, I reached for my phone, intending to call Tom for some much-needed company. But he didn’t pick up. Where was he? And why wasn’t he ans

Bas POV As I stepped out of the barn, I continued walking not daring to look back until I was far gone from her sight. When I could no longer feel her gaze behind my back I stop trying to process what just happened.Stupid, how could you let your guard down I tried to calm my racing heart, but thoughts of her widened eyes and hitched breath when I drew her close flooded my mind. Did she want me to kiss her? No, that couldn’t be right. The Rebecca I knew wouldn’t hesitate to pull a bullet through my heart. But then she confessed she couldn’t stop thinking about our kiss. Was she just trying to deceive me? I paced back and forth in the empty field, grappling with my conflicted thoughts. Why did she have this effect on me? Why couldn’t I control my feelings around her? Dammit!!!I shook my head, trying to dispel the unwelcome thoughts that refused to be silenced. This couldn’t be happening. There was no way I was going to make the same foolish mistake like Sam. I wasn’t weak or fooli
