Across the room, I felt her - the storm I slept beside, the fire I kissed hours ago.

Tessa stood quiet, her arms crossed, expression unreadable. But I could feel it. The tension in her spine. The determination building behind her stillness.

She was already deciding. Already choosing.

And I knew what was coming before she even opened her mouth.

“I’m not staying behind.”

Tessa’s voice was calm. Too calm. That tone always came right before she did something reckless and unstoppable.

I turned from the weapons rack, strapping a fresh mag to my hip. “You’re not expendable, Tessa.”

She raised an eyebrow. “Neither are the rest of them.”

“That’s not the same.”

Her lips pressed into a thin line as she folded her arms, hoodie replaced now with black armor molded to her form like a second skin. She looked like a queen forged from lightning and will. Unshakable. But I could still see the pulse in her throat, the faint tremor in her finger - excitement or dread, I didn’t know. Maybe both.

    Dorian POVIt was still dark when the knock came - hard, urgent, no hesitation. A beat later, the door slammed open.“Alpha,” Galen’s voice barked from the doorway. “You need to see this. Now.”Tessa jerked upright beside me, the covers falling from her bare skin, eyes still hazy from sleep. I was already moving - out of bed, pulling on pants, blood pounding in my ears.“How many?” I demanded as I yanked on my shirt.“Too many,” Galen said grimly. “Scouts just returned. They’re flying Council banners. But they’re not emissaries.”Tessa was up now, dragging on a tunic, power already flickering across her skin in faint, silver sparks. “Enforcers?”Galen nodded once. “And then some. They’ve brought war beasts. Siege carts. Looks like half the Council’s private army is on the move.”I stepped forward, rage simmering beneath my skin. “How long until they reach the outer perimeter?”“Three hours. Four, if we’re lucky.”Tessa’s eyes met mine - calm, focused, deadly. No more time for softn

    His mouth hovered over my inner thigh, breath hot, teasing. My legs trembled, still wrapped around his shoulders, held wide by the weight of his hands on my hips.“I can smell how badly you want this,” he said, voice dark silk. “How wet you are for me.”I whimpered, hips bucking toward him, desperate for contact.But Dorian was in no rush. His mouth traced a line just shy of where I needed him, lips brushing skin, making me writhe. Then - finally - his tongue slid between my folds, slow and devastating.My back arched with a cry.He groaned into me like I was the finest thing he’d ever tasted. One hand gripped my thigh tighter, the other moving between us to tease and circle, building the tension until I was trembling, begging.“I love this,” he murmured. “How you fall apart for me.”Then he sucked, and I shattered.My body seized, pleasure crashing through me like lightning. I was still coming when he pulled back and flipped me effortlessly, dragging my hips up, pressing his cock a

    Tessa POVThe air still buzzed from the storm I’d let out.It had spilled from me last night like a river breaking its banks - ancient, instinctive, terrifying in its hunger. And now, as I stared at my hands in the quiet after the war meeting, I didn’t feel powerful.I felt responsible.The look in the emissary’s eyes when I stepped forward - it wasn’t just fear. It was recognition. Like he knew what I was before I did.I heard the door click shut softly behind me. Dorian.He walked in like a storm barely leashed, hair damp from the snow outside, jaw clenched with too many unspoken things. But his eyes softened when they landed on me. Just for a moment.“You okay?” he asked, voice low.I nodded. Lied. “Yeah.”He didn’t push. He sat beside me instead, close enough that I could feel the weight of him, the heat of his skin.“I scared them,” I whispered.Dorian tilted his head. “Good.”I frowned. “That’s not a good thing.”“It is,” he said. “Fear makes them hesitate. Hesitation gives us t

  • Save Me, Claim Me   Chapter 93 : Force In Soft Skin

    Dorian POV Tessa was trembling by the time we returned to our quarters. Not from fear.From too much power - too much truth - unleashed all at once.I guided her to the bed, gently pulling off t-shirt as if she were made of moonlight and embers. Her eyes were heavy, but her body still pulsed with energy. I could feel it under her skin. Ancient. Uncontainable.Her wolf was awake now. And so was mine.“She’s not the same girl we met,” my wolf murmured, awe lacing every syllable. “She’s a storm, wearing soft skin.”I pulled the covers up over her bare shoulders and climbed in behind her, drawing her against my chest like she was the only warmth left in the world.She didn’t speak. Just curled into me with a sigh that broke something open in my chest.I kissed the back of her neck, murmured, “Sleep,” into her hair.And this time, she did. But I didn’t. Not for hours.I lay awake in the dark, staring at the ceiling, listening to the rhythm of her breath. The bond between us wasn’t just h

    Tessa POVThe room was quiet, but inside me, a storm raged.Not the kind that broke trees or tore roofs from homes - no. This one unfolded inward, like roots splitting through stone.I sat in Dorian’s lap, his arms strong around me, grounding me, but I felt like I was floating just above the skin of the world. Like the veil had lifted - and now I couldn’t go back."You’re awake now," Sable whispered inside me. Her voice no longer distant, no longer muffled by fear or magic. "You remember enough to begin."My hands trembled. Not from fear. From knowing.From a quiet, rising awareness that everything I believed about myself - the story I’d been told - was only a shard of the truth. And the rest?Buried.Hidden by spells. By tears. By choices made before I could speak for myself.Dorian hadn’t said anything since I told him. He just held me tighter, as if his silence could protect me better than words.I leaned into him, cheek pressed to the solid warmth of his shoulder, and let myself b

    Tessa POVThe doors hadn’t even closed behind them before my knees buckled.Dorian caught me instantly, his arms locking around my waist, strong and steady, anchoring me in place. But even his touch couldn’t stop the way my body trembled. It wasn’t fear.It was something older. Deeper. Like I’d opened a door inside myself and couldn’t shut it again.I didn’t want to.“I’m okay,” I whispered, though my voice sounded distant even to my own ears.“You’re more than okay,” Dorian murmured behind me, his breath warm against my neck. “You just shook the bones of the Council’s spine, and you didn’t even try.”I wanted to believe him. But something in me still pulsed too loud - too alive.My skin prickled. The air still tasted like smoke and power. My hands had stopped glowing, but the pressure under my skin was still there. A hum. A heartbeat.And then Sable spoke again. “You felt it, didn’t you?”Her voice was clearer now than it had ever been - no longer a whisper in the shadows of my thoug

  • Save Me, Claim Me   Chapter 90 : Confrontation

    Dorian POVI didn’t sleep. Couldn’t.Even as Tessa drifted deeper into rest, tangled in my arms, my wolf remained sharp-eyed and alert. The bond between us hummed like a live wire, thrumming with magic and something older - wilder. I could feel Sable’s presence in the back of my mind, watchful now. Quiet, but present.We were marked by something ancient. And if I could feel it, others would too.A sharp knock split the quiet.I went still.Three precise raps. Measured. Not panicked. Not friendly either.Tessa stirred, but I brushed my lips against her forehead. “Stay,” I whispered. “I’ll handle it.”I slid from the bed, throwing on a pair of pants and grabbing the nearest shirt - still warm from earlier. My wolf growled low in my chest as I moved to the door, scent already catching what lay beyond."Not pack. Foreign. But not rogue either.""Council."I opened the door without ceremony.“Alpha Dorian.” The voice was clipped. Formal. And far too self-assured for someone standing at my

    Dorian POVThe storm of our bodies had passed, but its echoes lingered in the silence.Tessa lay curled against my chest, her breath warm against my skin, her hand resting over my heart like it belonged there. I watched her, unable to look away. Her lashes fluttered softly as she drifted toward sleep, her expression serene, almost glowing in the faint silver light that spilled through the window.She looked like peace. She felt like home.And still - despite the quiet, despite the warmth of her in my arms - the fire in my chest refused to settle. It wasn’t just desire anymore. It was something older. Deeper. Primordial.My fingers traced the curve of her spine slowly, grounding myself in the rhythm of her breathing. I didn’t want to wake her. I just wanted this. Her. Everything.My wolf stirred in the back of my mind, pacing silently, eyes fixed on her too. "She’s more than we dreamed."“I know,” I whispered."She carries something ancient inside her, he murmured. Not just Alpha blood
