POV: Ethan

By the time Ethan saw Jamie again, days had passed.

It had rained, the city was still wet.

Water clung to the edges of the pavement outside Jamie's apartment building, reflecting the pale yellow glow of the streetlights. The storm had passed through sometime before dawn, leaving the air cool and heavy, carrying the clean smell of rain, wet concrete, and the faint exhaust of the morning traffic beginning to gather beyond

  • My Best Friend's Fiancé is Fated my Fated Mate   Chapter 14

    POV: JamieBy late afternoon, the rain had disappeared completely.The city had dried beneath a pale, hazy sun, leaving the streets shining where puddles still gathered along the gutters. The air was warmer than it had been that morning, carrying the smell of wet earth, traffic, and the faint sweetness of something cooking in one of the restaurants below Jamie's apartment.Jamie stood in front of his bedroom mirror, trying to decide whether he looked as unsettled as he felt.He did.His hair was still slightly damp from his shower, curling messily around his forehead. He had changed into dark jeans and a loose cream-colored shirt, leaving the top two buttons undone because the room felt too warm.He had spent most of the day trying not to think.About Ryan.About Ethan.About the night before.About this morning.Especially this morning.Every time Jamie closed his eyes, he remembered Ethan's hand against his cheek.The warmth of it.The hesitation.The way both of them had frozen.Ja

    POV: EthanBy the time Ethan saw Jamie again, days had passed.It had rained, the city was still wet.Water clung to the edges of the pavement outside Jamie's apartment building, reflecting the pale yellow glow of the streetlights. The storm had passed through sometime before dawn, leaving the air cool and heavy, carrying the clean smell of rain, wet concrete, and the faint exhaust of the morning traffic beginning to gather beyond the residential street.Ethan stood outside Jamie's door with a paper bag in one hand and his phone in the other.He looked down at himself.Dark trousers.A charcoal button-down with the sleeves rolled to his forearms.His hair was still slightly damp from the shower.He hadn't bothered with a jacket.He'd left home earlier than usual because he'd barely slept.Ryan's words from that night had stayed with h

  • My Best Friend's Fiancé is Fated my Fated Mate   Chapter 12

    POV: RyanHe opened his eyes.The smile disappeared from his face.Ethan.The engagement.The families.The future that had already been planned before either of them had been given much opportunity to object.Ryan had never thought of himself as particularly romantic.He had understood what the engagement meant.Their families were strengthening their alliance.It was political.Practical.A marriage between two people who were compatible enough to make it work.Ryan had accepted that.Ethan had too.They weren't in love.At least, they hadn't been.But Ethan was a good man.Ryan respected him.More than that, Ryan trusted him.But Jamie loved him.That much was impossible to miss.Ryan remembered the way Jamie had looked at Ethan.The ease between them.The familiarity.The small things.Ethan didn't have to ask whether Jamie was hungry.He already knew.He didn't have to ask whether Jamie was upset.He could tell.Years.Years of friendship.Years of memories.Years of knowing exac

    POV: RyanRyan had spent the entire drive home telling himself that he had made a mistake.He should never have gone to Jamie's apartment.He should never have stayed.He definitely should never have held him.Yet every time he tried to push the memory away, another part of it returned.Not the bond.Not the overwhelming pull that had first struck him at the engagement party.Not the heat of attraction that had made it difficult to think clearly.It was something quieter.Something far more dangerous.The weight of Jamie's head against his shoulder.The hesitant way Jamie had moved closer.The moment his body had finally relaxed.Ryan had felt it happen.He had felt the tension slowly leave him.He had felt Jamie's breathing settle into an even rhythm.And when Ryan had wrapped an arm around him, Jamie hadn't pulled away.He had trusted him.That was the memory Ryan couldn't stop thinking about.He lay awake in his bedroom, staring at the ceiling while the digital clock on the bedside

    JamieJamie didn't sleep.Not properly.He lay in bed with the lights off, staring at the ceiling while the memory of Ryan standing in his apartment replayed itself over and over.This isn't going away.Jamie turned onto his side.He hated the certainty in Ryan's voice.Hated even more that some part of him believed it.The room was cool, but Jamie felt too warm.He kicked the blanket away.A few minutes later, he pulled it back over himself.Then kicked it off again."Jesus."He sat up.Something was wrong.Not dramatically wrong.Not yet.It was just a strange restlessness beneath his skin.A warmth that wouldn't settle.His heart was beating faster than normal.His body felt heavy.Sensitive.Uncomfortab

    JamieJamie stared at the door.Ryan stood on the other side.He could feel him.That was the worst part.He could feel him without seeing him.The bond had gone strangely quiet the moment Ryan arrived, but Jamie's body remained alert, every nerve tuned toward the man standing just beyond the door.A knock sounded.Once.Jamie didn't move.Another knock."Jamie."Ryan's voice.Low.Controlled.Too close.Jamie closed his eyes."Go home.""I will."Jamie frowned.Ryan continued."Just give me five minutes.""No.""Five minutes.""I don't want to talk to you.""I know.""Then leave.""I will."A pause."After five minutes."Jamie a
