LOGIN• CALEB • I don’t understand what is wrong with me. That thought kept repeating itself in my head like a broken loop I couldn’t shut off. Every time I tried to open my mouth and explain what happened, it was like my words refused to form properly, like something inside me kept hitting a wall and bouncing back into silence. “I don’t know,” I finally said again, even though I hated how weak it sounded. “Everything just vanished.” And it wasn’t even a lie. That was the worst part. It really did feel like everything had just slipped through my fingers. One moment I was standing there, aware, speaking, reacting, and the next moment it was like someone had cut a piece of time out of my head and thrown it away where I couldn’t reach it anymore. Stormy shifted inside me immediately, restless and uneasy. This is not okay, Caleb. “I know,” I muttered under my breath, more to myself than anyone else. “This shit is not okay at all.” My chest felt tight in a way I couldn’t explain
•NELSON• The moment I reached the clearing, I already knew something was wrong. It wasn’t just the silence. Silence in a forest was normal if you trained long enough to understand it. Silence could mean peace. It could mean waiting. It could mean a predator holding its breath just beyond sight. But this silence felt wrong in a way that crawled under my skin and refused to settle. Rain felt it before I did. His presence inside me shifted instantly, no longer playful or curious like he had been earlier when we were tracking Stormy’s chaotic trail through the woods. Now he was alert, rigid, fully awake in a way that made my senses sharpen painfully. Danger. Not distant. Close. I slowed my steps as I approached the edge of the clearing, every instinct screaming at me to move carefully. The trees opened gradually, and the moonlight spilled down into the space ahead like something revealing a secret it had been hiding. And then I saw my omega. Caleb. He was standing alone in the m
•CALEB•The vampire’s words didn’t leave the air. They stayed there instead, heavy and stubborn, like the forest itself refused to let them fade.You are still the same.That was what he said first, like it was the simplest thing in the world, like I was supposed to understand what he meant without feeling like my mind was being dragged through fog.I stood there beneath the trees completely naked, still trying to steady my breathing from the strange flashes that had hit me earlier. My body still didn’t feel fully mine. Something about the way Stormy had taken control and then stepped back left me unsettled in a way I couldn’t explain. Even now I could feel him somewhere inside me, restless, watching, listening, like he was pretending to relax when he clearly wasn’t.The vampire didn’t move closer. He just studied me like I was a memory he was trying to reconstruct from broken pieces.“You still don’t remember,” he said again, softer this time.Stormy growled inside my head immediatel
• CALEB •One moment Stormy was happily tearing into a deer like he hadn’t eaten in a thousand years. The next moment?We were chasing another one. I honestly had no idea what was wrong with him. The first deer wasn’t even finished. Half of it was still lying in the clearing behind us.Yet somehow Stormy had spotted another animal and immediately decided that was the most important thing in existence.Branches snapped beneath our paws as we ran through the forest.“Stormy.”No answer.“Stormy.”Still nothing. The giant wolf was completely focused on his new target.“Are you seriously chasing another deer?”“Hunting.”“You already caught one.”“Yes.”“So why are we chasing another one?”“Because it’s there.”I stared into the shared space of our mind.“You are unbelievable.”“I’m talented.”“You’re greedy.”“Also true.”I groaned. Twenty seven years of existence and somehow I ended up bonded to the most ridiculous wolf in history. The deer disappeared between a cluster of trees.Stormy
• JASON •Stormy was insane. Absolutely insane.The wolf had disappeared for weeks, returned with ancient memories, took control of our mate’s body, flirted shamelessly with everyone breathing around him, and somehow still managed to make people like him.Which was the problem. Because despite all of that…I liked him too. Moon Goddess help me. I liked his ridiculous confidence. I liked how he constantly annoyed Caleb. I liked how he somehow brought life into every room he entered.And if I was being completely honest?The chaos felt less terrifying when Stormy was around. But there was a limit.And if that wolf actually ran off with our omega and got him hurt, I would personally find a way to throw him back into whatever corner of Caleb’s mind he came from.Forever.Because as much as I enjoyed Stormy’s presence, Caleb was what mattered.Caleb without Stormy was still Caleb.Still our mate. Still the person I loved. Stormy wasn’t the reason I stayed. Caleb was always Caleb. Weather s
NELSON“What the hell just happened?”Jason’s voice echoed through the mindlink as both of us stood frozen at the edge of the forest.A few seconds ago, Caleb controlled by a horny wolf had been standing right in front of us.Now Stormy had taken control and disappeared into the woods like a silver hurricane after telling us how he come so he would fuck us. Shit that even turned me on.The forest was still moving from where he had blasted through it. Branches swayed. Leaves drifted through the air.And somehow the silence that followed felt louder than anything else.I stared into the trees. A laugh escaped me before I could stop it.Only our mate wolf could disappear for months, return with ancient memories, discover he might be some forgotten king, become invisible to an entire kingdom, and then run into the forest because his wolf wanted dinner.Only Caleb.Or more specifically…Only Stormy.Inside my head, Rain let out a long satisfied sigh.I like him.That wasn’t surprising.Ra
• CALEB •I still think this entire thing is suspicious. That was my official opinion while standing in front of the cabin mirror wearing one of Jason’s hoodies because apparently all my clothes had either blood on them or emotional trauma attached.“You’re taking too long,” Jason shouted from down
• CALEB •One minute I was sneaking out of the palace with Stormy helping me disappear like some criminal omega fugitive.The next?I was bleeding to death in Nelson’s arms.bHonestly my life was becoming very disrespectful at this point.Pain dragged slowly through my body while darkness pressed he
• JASON • The second Nelson disappeared with Caleb in his arms… I stopped holding back. Completely. Rain surged forward inside me violently, finally allowed to breathe after being restrained for too long. My entire body hummed with Alpha power while the hallway outside the apartment darkened insta
• NELSON • Everything happened too fast. One second Jason and I were standing at the destroyed apartment doorway trying to process the fact that Caleb was surrounded by three humans radiating energy that definitely was not human. The next? Chaos exploded. One of them moved first. Not human move
