MasukKai finally understands that Aria is his fated mate, yet he is also the wolf who shattered her life. Loving someone is hard, but loving someone who fears and hates the part of you they don’t know yet might be even harder. The game is tonight… but Kai’s real battle isn’t on the field.
I let out a bitter laugh. “That’s all he ever was to you, wasn’t it?”Silence.“And now you expect me to be the same?” I asked.His eyes sharpened. “You are the same. You have a duty to this pack and the pack comes first. Your position as the next Alpha comes first.”The certainty in his voice made
Kai.By the time I reached the mansion, my hands were still shaking.I killed the engine of my motocycle, the sound echoing too loudly in the quiet driveway. For a moment, I didn’t move. I just sat there, gripping the handlebars, trying to steady my breathing.Aria’s face flashed in my mind.Those g

Kai. Another week passed by since the day Aria had barged into my office and we had spent almost every day after school in the library where she tutored me. I couldn’t deny she was amazingly smart but she didn’t go easy on me. But for once, it was nice to see her outside school when she unconsci
I ignored as I started to write on the white board, erasing the formation I had come up with earlier.
