Gabriel doesn’t look back.

Not when the door closes behind him.

Not when his sister calls his name.

Not even when something deep inside him, something fragile and desperate, begs him to turn around.

He just keeps walking.

Ragnar is restless beneath his skin.

He's not wild, not out of control, but wounded.

The kind of wounded that sits heavy and quiet… the kind that makes a wolf dangerous in a different way.

‘We should not stay,’ Ragnar mutters lowly in his mind, his voice rough with restrained r

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   THE AWAKENING BOND

    ~HOLLY~I don’t know how long I stay like that on the floor, crying, shaking and breaking.Time feels… wrong here. Like it stretches and bends just to make everything hurt longer.At some point, my body gives in.The tears slow, and my breathing steadies just enough.And exhaustion drags me under.~~~I see darkness and it feels alive.It wraps around me, not cold like the castle, but heavy, thick, and pressing.Then, it hits me.A sharp, violent pull in my chest, and I gasp.My hand flies to my heart, fingers digging into my skin like I can hold it together.“What… what is that…?” I whisper, my voice echoing strangely in the void.It’s not pain.It’s something deeper…..raw and burning anger.It crashes into me first, sudden and explosive.Fury so intense it makes my knees buckle.My breath stutters as it floods through me like it belongs there.But it doesn’t.It’s not mine.“I…” I shake my head, disoriented. “This isn’t….”Then comes the next wave.Desire.I

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   HOLLY MEETS NICHOLAS

    ~HOLLY~I wake up with a sharp gasp, my body jolting upright before my mind even catches up.My heart is racing too fast, too loud…..like it’s trying to break out of my chest.Where am I?The thought slams into me as I throw the covers off and stumble out of the bed. My feet hit the cold floor, and I spin around wildly, panic already clawing its way up my throat.“How did I get here…?” My voice comes out shaky, barely above a whisper.I press my hand to my head, trying to remember…..trying to piece it together.The hotel. Gabriel. The darkness. That hand….My breath hitches violently.No. No, no, no.I look around quickly, my eyes struggling to adjust to the dimness of the room. It’s… beautiful. Painfully so. Elegant furniture, intricate carvings, soft fabrics, everything carefully placed like something out of a dream.But it feels wrong, cold and empty.Like a cage dressed as a palace.Fear tightens around my chest.I take a step back, then another, turning

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT

    Hours pass.Hours of pacing, thinking, breaking, rebuilding, breaking again.The sky shifts slowly outside, darkness creeping in, and Gabriel is still there, still trapped in his own head, still fighting a war inside himself.“Go back.”“Don’t go back.”“Tell him.”“Don’t tell him.”“Handle it alone.”“You can’t handle it alone.”His body aches. His wounds burn. He knows the more time he wastes, the more time Holly is prone to more danger.But he still can't bring himself to make a decision.Gabriel drags a hand through his hair, pacing harder now, his steps uneven, restless. He stops abruptly, staring at the wall like he can see through it.“Think!” he snaps at himself harshly. “There has to be another way… there has to be something.” His mind flashes with images of the mountains, of a place he barely knows but has heard about—cold, ruthless, controlled by power. Nicholas’ territory. Nicholas’ rules.“You go there alone… you die,” Gabriel mutters bitterly. He lets out a broken laug

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   WHERE IS HOLLY??

    ~DAMIEN~The knock on my door is soft and hesitant.I barely register it at first, too buried in my thoughts, but it comes again. Louder this time.“Daddy?”It's Ella, who something in her voice pulls me upright instantly.“Come in,” I call, already swinging my legs off the bed.The door creaks open, and she steps in slowly, clutching the hem of her nightshirt. Her brows are drawn together, her lips pressed into a thin, uneasy line.“I can’t find Holly.”My heart stutters.“What do you mean you can’t find her?” I ask, sharper than I intend.“I checked her room,” Ella says quickly, her words tumbling over each other. “She’s not there. I looked upstairs too… and in the kitchen. I thought maybe she couldn’t sleep.” She hesitates, then adds in a smaller voice, “I wanted to talk to her about you both. You know… girl stuff.”A cold weight settles in my chest.I’m already moving before she finishes speaking.“Stay in your room,” I tell her as I brush past, my voice tig

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   HE WON'T BE MANIPULATED AGAIN

    The moment Gabriel understands, something inside him breaks in a way that can never be repaired.It's not cracked, not shaken, not shattered.The lobby noise fades into nothing, like the world itself steps back to give space for what is about to happen.His chest rises and falls too fast, too sharp, like breathing itself has turned into a weapon against him.Ragnar is no longer pacing. He is clawing.“He took her.”Gabriel’s gaze locks onto Nicholas, and there is no hesitation this time, no confusion, no doubt.Only rage……. pure, violent, blinding rage.And then he moves fast.Faster than any human in that lobby can track, his body cuts through space with a single purpose, a single target.Nicholas.Nicholas doesn’t move.He doesn't flinch, he doesn't even blink.He simply watches Gabriel come, like he has been expecting it all along.Like this…is part of the plan too.Gabriel’s fist collides with Nicholas’ face with a sickening crack, and the impact echoes.A few people nearby gasp,

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   HOLLY IS GONE

    Inside the hotel, Gabriel stands near the far end of the lobby, partially hidden from direct view.His hands are in his pockets, and his posture is relaxed, but his eyes are anything but relaxed.They’re cold, sharp, watching, and waiting.Ragnar is restless beneath his skin, pacing, alert.“She’s close,” his wolf growls.Gabriel doesn’t respond.He already knows, and he can feel it.And somewhere behind him, out of sight, Nicholas watches too….. silent and unseen.And not far from the entrance, Alvin waits still and patient.Everything is exactly where it should be.The trap is ready.All that’s left…Is for Holly to walk into it.Gabriel gets Holly's message of her being around, and then he moves from the lobby to a place where Holly can easily see him.The glass doors slide open, and Holly steps inside.And the moment she does, her eyes find Gabriel standing there alive and real.Her breath catches instantly.“Gabriel…”The name slips out of her lips like a fragile prayer.For a seco
