Kane
As usual, I don't bother to knock but kick open the damn door. The sound startles Amon, and he jumps away from my mother. Something tells me that the son of a bitch was about to hit her.
"Kane," my mother sighs, relief spreading across her face.
"You wanted to talk. I'm here, so talk." I lean against the doorframe. I ran through the rain, so at this point, a puddle forms at my feet.
"Let's go to the office; I don't want to discuss private matters here. Let me get you a towel and some clothes." Mother doesn't give me time to react to her words and runs up the stairs.
Amon gives me a hateful glance but leaves without another r
Selena The apartment door opens, and I immediately hide under the bed. I have no idea why the instinct to hide kicks in, but I'm rather happy it exists. Since I'm mated to Kane, it puts me in some danger; that's a proven fact. Someone is walking around the room, constantly looking for something. At first, the person might have said something, but the chaos and fear in my head make it impossible to understand a word. I want to get out of my hiding spot, but I'm too scared. On the other hand, what if it's Kane and I'm just being paranoid? He usually calls for me when he comes home, so maybe it isn't him. As the footstep
Selena I open and close my mouth as I watch Kane's eyes change colour again. It seems like he's losing control as they turn back to pitch-black in less than a second. This must be the beast that lives inside him. "For the last time. Explain, now." He snaps. Even though I don't face Kane anymore, I muster up the courage to yell, "I don't have to explain anything!" "Oh, yes, you do, darling. You see, I don't take lies kindly. Now, while I'm still able to control myself, be a good girl, and explain where your accusations are coming from." He presses himself so tightly against me that I can hardly breathe. "I felt it, you cheat
SelenaI break the kiss, panting for breath. He holds me tight to his body as if he's afraid to let go.I look into his eyes and try my best to remember the beast's name. "Onyx, could you give Kane the control? I get it; you want to spend some time with me, but I need to talk to him.""Anything for you, mate," the beast growls, and a moment later, the hands around my waist don't hold me as tightly anymore. There is a huge difference between Kane and his beast- Kane's way more gentle."Are you tired?" Kane whispers as he traces feather-light kisses down my neck."A little," my voice sounds hoarse as I tilt my head to give him more access.&n
Kane "How could you? Shouldn't you ask for my consent before you sink your teeth into my skin?" Selena attempts to push me away as her fists collide with my chest. I remain silent; it's not like I have an answer. I did what I did, and now, it's too late to change anything. And even if I suddenly felt remorse, I still couldn't change anything. Well, perhaps I feel a bit of regret because I gave in and acted on pure instinct. Selena doesn't know this, but sometimes doing something without her consent can have negative consequences. Lord, I hope that won't be the case. "Calm down; it's done anyway," I say, leaning closer to her. Maybe being close will make her feel better. I don't know anymore
Kane "You didn't intend to do that, but I feel used. You fucked me like you were fucking a bitch and then peeled yourself away from me like I'm toxic." Selena's eyes finally travel up to meet mine in the reflection of the mirror. I can't describe the things I'm feeling now. The regret of what I have done and the awareness that I hurt my mate tear me apart. But it's not about me, and it never would be. It's all about Selena and her feelings. "I'm so sorry, I lost control and took you as if you were a wolf, which, of course, you aren't. I was horrified when I realised what I was doing. That's why I got away from you so suddenly. I'm so damn sorry, Selena. Are you hurt or in pain? Did I hurt you inside? Maybe you need a doctor? I can call one right now; he, no
Kane"It's time to wake up, love," I open the bedroom curtains.My eyes sweep the horizon- Selena and I have spent the last two weeks of the heat in the apartment. I left only when necessary to get groceries or meet with the Keeper to discuss the possible position I might take.I'm still not sure if I want to be a King. While I took care of everything, Selena preferred to stay indoors.She would call her family or talk to my mother for hours when I left. That's another concern- I'm not sure if the change in my mother is real or if this is another step toward a brand new, sick idea of how to sabotage my happiness."Five more minutes,"
KaneDespite her pleas to let her go alone, I decide to drive her to the packhouse to ensure Selena's safety. No matter how much time we spend together or how close we get, I can't let her go.I've learned to trust Selena, but I can't say the same thing about my mother. Not even close. And I still need to learn how to trust the pack members who live under my mother's roof.The heat season is over, and everyone's getting back into the swing of things, but I still can't be absolutely sure of that yet either. All I want to do is protect Selena and keep her safe until I'm sure there's no danger to her life."I know the way to the packhouse; it wouldn't bother me if I had to walk, you know. Besides, you have an imp
SelenaAfter Kane left, his mom made us tea, and we had the best time together. Laughter, jokes, and a little gossip.Well, at least for an hour or so.We sit in silence, I'd say comfortably, until she jumps up and startles me. I raise an eyebrow as Luna turns her back to me."Selena, I need to excuse myself for a moment."Though the statement is sharp, I whisper, "Okay."She disappears down the hall, leaving me in the living room. As a few minutes pass, I become suspicious. I'm in her house; any other wolf can come here and question me.
