The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance) Chapter 123- The Rainstorm
Leander POVThe storm hit after midnight.Rain hit the mountain resort so hard that the windows shook. Thunder boomed through the valleys like something huge waking beneath the earth. The lights flickered once, twice, before staying steady.Most of the resort had gone quiet hours ago. Employees were asleep behind doors after long days of workshops and getting tired from being in the mountains.I was still awake. Of course I was. Sleep has become unsafe lately. Every time I closed my eyes, something tried to come.I stood by the window watching rain hit the glass hard as lightning flashed against the mountains. The pressure behind my eyes had been building all evening. Not pain, more like heavy, gathering weather. The bond mark beneath my neck burned steadily under my skin. It was warm. It was like it was pulling me. Restless. Always toward him.Thunder cracked overhead, sharp and sudden.Then another piece hit…Rain on cobblestones, blood, and hands gripping my face while a voice said
The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance) Chapter 122 — The Evening Dance
Avelin POVThe ballroom looked like a dream at night. The warm lights shining off the wood floors were really pretty, snow falling gently outside the windows that looked out at the mountains, and the music playing softly, quiet and close, the kind that made people feel happy and relaxed without them even realizing it.The resort called this an evening social. Renlo called it "people getting emotional at work with food." He was not totally wrong.The employees stood around in groups with drinks in their hands, laughing more easily than they would have in the city. The mountains were changing them. Being away was changing them. What was happening between Leander and me, the mountains had made that feel real too.I was sitting near the edge of the ballroom with a drink I wasn't really drinking while Renlo told two accountants stories about workplace disasters."You are getting upset," he said casually, swirling his wine."I am just sitting here quietly," I replied."You are staring at th
The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance) Chapter 121 — Day Two: Workshops and Escalating Tension
Leander POVBy mid-morning, I realized I was losing control of my mind. Not publicly, no one but Elias would notice. But inside, everything felt unstable.The workshops went on in the resort's conference center, snow drifting softly beyond the huge windows overlooking the mountains. Department heads rotated through presentations, and teams discussed quarterly strategies and operations. Typical corporate stuff. Safe. Usually.Today, every sound threatened to tear something open inside me, a word, a smell, a tone of voice. Fragments slipped through unexpectedly. Cold mud beneath my hands. Pain. Someone pressing fabric hard against a wound, shouting for me to stay awake. Then gone.I stood at the front explaining regional expansion metrics while twenty managers took notes around the table, my voice level and my posture easy, every inch of me performing the version of myself the room expected to see. "The western division restructuring should improve logistics by about fourteen percent n
The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance) Chapter 120 — The Confession on the Mountain
Avelin POVI didn't sleep. I just lay there.I sat beside the resort window until four in the morning, wrapped in a blanket, watching the mountain breathe in the darkness. The pine trees moved softly in the wind below while the snow reflected the moonlight across the cliffs.It was so quiet I could hear my heartbeat. Which was bad. Because it had been racing since the terrace, since Leander's hand on my face, his rough softness in his voice.Don't ask me to stop.Oh God.I pressed my forehead lightly against the glass and closed my eyes. The bond beneath my skin pulsed steadily near my throat, alive, almost restless.The mountains made it impossible to ignore anymore. Every instinct between us felt louder, stronger, closer to the surface.Around three in the morning, after hours of trying not to think about the way Leander looked at me beneath the stars, I finally admitted something honest to myself.I was falling in love with Leander again.Not with a memory. Not with Shen's ghost.
The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance) Chapter 119- Night on the Terrace
Leander POVI left dinner before dessert. I just got up and walked away quietly. That is how I have been leaving things lately when my emotions get too much to handle.The air on the mountain was really cold after dark. It smelled like pine and snow from the cliffs above. There was smoke coming from the fire pits below the terrace. The stars looked amazing. They were so clear and close, it was like someone had thrown glitter across the sky. I walked out onto the stone terrace and put my hands on the railing.Behind me, I could hear the sounds of people laughing, music playing, and dishes clinking in the dining hall. It all sounded normal. My chest still felt tight because of the memories that I do not really remember. Because of the kitchen and the feeling of being safe. That feeling of being safe is what scared me the most. Because I have spent most of my life being controlled and respected and feared, but not safe.I closed my eyes for a second. The mark on my neck was pulsing stead
The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance) Chapter 118- Dinner Under the Stars
Avelin POVThe mountain at night felt almost like a dream.The cold air was moving softly through the pines surrounding the resort. Stars were stretching overhead, sharp and bright. They seemed to be painted in the sky.The dinner was outside on the terrace. It was lit by lamps and hanging lanterns. Long wooden tables filled the space. Candles were flickering between glasses and plates. Everything glowed warm against the mountain backdrop.It was beautiful. It also felt dangerous somehow.Nothing here felt connected to life anymore. The city was away. Work was distant. Even the version of myself that had survived carefully felt quieter up here.Maybe that was the problem.The bond had much room to breathe in the mountains. I could feel it constantly now. It was alive beneath my skin. It was pulling toward him whether I wanted it to or not.I sat beside Renlo near the middle of the table. Someone from legal was describing ski injuries across from us with energy. The finance department
