View MoreValerieWhen I next awoke, my mind was clear.It was as if the fog that had wrapped itself around my thoughts had finally lifted. I could remember everything every moment, every word, every betrayal. The haze I’d been drowning in since regaining my memory was gone, and I hated the clarity just as much as I craved it.Because with that sharp awareness came heartbreak.Max’s face surged to the forefront of my thoughts. His anger, the coldness in his eyes when he thought I’d betrayed him… it cut deeper than any knife. I had loved him. Trusted him. Believed in our bond. And he had turned away from me in the moment I needed him the most.I sucked in a slow breath and pushed the covers off my legs. The sheets smelled faintly of pine and something else something wild and familiar. Max. I hated how even the scent of him could make my body ache with longing.I looked around, blinking at the unfamiliar space. The room was spacious and full of soft morning light that poured through tall windows.
MaxI pace the length of my office like a caged beast, fury and helplessness simmering beneath my skin. I should be with Valerie. I *need* to be with her. But instead, I’m stuck here in my New York office, waiting for Roslyn.Theron is with her. I trust him with my life, and more importantly, with hers. But it’s not the same. I need to see her with my own eyes, need to touch her skin, hear her voice no matter how weak or distant it’s become.She’s here, yet not. Awake, but not present. Her body survived, but her soul... it’s as if it slipped beyond my reach, retreating to a place where even I can’t protect her. A place where she believes I can’t hurt her anymore.My wolf claws at me from within, restless and grieving. Guilt and rage eat me alive.When the door finally opens and Roslyn steps in, I freeze.She’s wearing red lipstick and an eager smile, as if we’re meeting for a date. As if I don’t see the blood on her hands. My jaw tightens, my fists curl, and it takes everything I have
MaxI stormed into the Silver Fang Hotel with a growl lodged in my throat and fire coursing through my veins. The front desk clerk barely had time to blink before I waved him off and strode straight past the velvet ropes, ignoring the confused murmurs of the staff trying to greet me.They knew who I was. I didn’t need pleasantries.The elevator was waiting, already held open by a wary bellhop who wisely avoided my eyes. I stepped in and slammed my hand against the top floor button, jaw clenched so tightly I could feel my molars grind.Valerie.She was out in the cold.Barefoot. Pregnant. Alone.Because of me.The doors opened and I stepped into the luxury suite usually reserved for visiting Alphas, but tonight it belonged to her. My mate. The woman I failed again.Dorian rose from the armchair in the sitting area, his face unreadable, but I could see the tension in his shoulders. I didn’t bother masking my fury.“Why the hell didn’t you bring her back to the penthouse?” I snarled.His
ValerieI don’t remember leaving the room.One moment I was staring at the man I thought I loved, the man who made me feel safe, cherished, even adored and the next I was out in the bitter night, the soles of my feet stinging as they met the cold stone of the garden terrace.I didn’t grab shoes. Or a coat. Or think.I just ran.The sharp air knifed through my nightgown, but the real chill was already inside me. It bloomed in my chest, spread through my limbs, and froze everything warm and good within me.I sink onto a stone bench tucked beneath an arch of ivy. It’s the place I used to come when I couldn’t sleep, the place where I let myself imagine a life where I belonged. It used to calm me.Now, it feels like a grave.I wrap my arms around myself and press my forehead to my knees, trying to breathe through the ache, the betrayal, the unbearable weight of truth.I remember everything now.The truth came back in a vicious flood, tearing through me without mercy. Max Alpha Max Black, m
ValerieThe morning sunlight kissed my face, warm and coaxing, but not enough to draw me fully from the deep cocoon of sleep. Max’s scent still lingered on the sheets earthy and wild, like cedarwood and something innately powerful. I stirred just as he pressed a soft kiss to my brow.“I’ll come for
Max I hung up the phone and stared at the screen like it might erase the message I’d just received.New York.My sanctuary of shadows and responsibility. A place I’d been avoiding since I brought Valerie to this island.I leaned back in my chair, the old leather groaning under my weight as I reste
Valerie. Morning sunlight streamed across the bedroom, gilding the sheets in soft gold. For a few blissful seconds, I floated between sleep and waking, held in the warmth of the bed and the memory of Max’s arms around me.I stretched languidly, expecting to feel the solid heat of his body beside m
ValerieI stood in the closet of the bedroom Max had given me, staring blankly at the endless row of clothing. My vision blurred until all I could see were dull shapes and colors. I swiped at my damp cheeks with the back of my hand, refusing to fall apart again.Focus on something simple. Like what
