LOGINI thought my life was ruined when Kelvin betrayed me again. I thought heartbreak was the worst I’d ever feel. I didn’t expect it would lead me straight into the arms of danger or desire. When Professor Adrian Metcalfe offered me a deal I couldn’t refuse a fake relationship to make Kelvin jealous. I thought it was just a game. But Adrian wasn’t just a professor. He wasn’t just dangerous. He was my mate. My fated mate. And I was human… or so I thought. The night of Kelvin’s wedding changes everything. I watch my teacher shift into a werewolf. Secrets unravel. My own hidden power awakens. And suddenly, the past isn’t just painful, it's deadly. Kelvin wasn’t who I thought he was. Adrian’s control isn’t just discipline; it’s destiny. And as the web of betrayal tightens around me, I realize love is the only weapon that can save me and claim what is rightfully mine. Welcome to a world where forbidden love, hidden power, and revenge collide… and where your mate is the only one who can keep you alive.
View MoreADRIAN'S POVI haven't slept in three days.Every time I close my eyes I see her. Begging me to mark her. Crying because I won't. Looking at me like I'm breaking her heart when all I'm trying to do is protect her.It's torture.Worse than the silver chains. Worse than Asher's compound. Worse than anything I've ever endured.Because the solution is right there. So simple. So easy. Just one bite. One mark. One claiming and everything gets better.But I can't. Won't. Not while she's like this."You're being stupid." Kael's voice in my head. He's been arguing with me constantly. "Our mate is suffering. We can end it. Why won't you let me?""Because it's wrong. She's not in her right mind.""She's conscious. Aware. Begging for it. How much more consent do you need?""Consent given under duress isn't real consent." I've had this argument with him a hundred times. "She's dying Kael. She's desperate. She'd agree to anything if she thought it would save her.""And you'd rather let her die than
FREYA'S POVThree days.Three days since the ritual went wrong. Three days of being restrained. Three days of partial shifts I can't control. Three days of Adrian refusing to mark me even though it's the one thing that could fix this.I'm going insane.The silver burns constantly. My wolf thrashes inside me. Demanding freedom. Demanding her mate. Demanding everything I can't give her.And Adrian. He's here constantly. Watching me. Caring for me. Feeding me. Changing my bandages. But never touching me the way I need. Never giving me what would end this torture.It's killing me. Killing us both.Dr. Chen removed the restraints an hour ago. Said my wolf has stabilized enough that I won't immediately attack anyone. But I'm still dangerous. Still unpredictable. Still caught between human and animal.Adrian sits across the room. Far enough that I can't reach him easily. Close enough that the bond hums between us. Torture of a different kind."You should eat." He gestures to the tray of food
Chapter 70ADRIAN'S POVShe's magnificent and terrifying in equal measure.Freya crouches in the corner. Partially shifted. Gold eyes glowing. Claws extended. Fur patches across her skin. Caught between human and wolf in a way that shouldn't be possible.And it's killing her. I can see it. Feel it through the bond. Her body tearing itself apart trying to complete a shift it can't finish. Her wolf too powerful. Her human form too weak. Neither able to dominate. Both fighting for control."What the fuck were you thinking?" Anger bleeds into my voice despite trying to stay calm. "A ritual? Without telling me? Without anyone who could help if something went wrong?"She whimpers. Tries to speak. What comes out is garbled. Half-words. Half-growls. Nothing coherent.Kael surges forward in my mind. Demanding I help our mate. Demanding I fix this. But I don't know how. Have never seen a wolf stuck like this. Never heard of a partial shift that won't complete."Can you shift back? Back to human
FREYA'S POVPain.Everything is pain.My bones are breaking. Reforming. Breaking again. Skin stretching. Tearing. Fur trying to emerge but getting stuck halfway.I scream. Finally scream. Can't hold it back anymore.The wolf inside me is thrashing. Trying to take control. Trying to fully shift. But something is blocking her. Keeping her trapped between human and animal. Between conscious and feral."What's happening?" Chief Winters's voice. Panicked. "You said this was safe!""It should be! I've done this ritual dozens of times!" The witch backs away from the circle. "But her wolf... it's too strong. Too powerful. The binding didn't just suppress it. It twisted it. Changed it. And now it's emerging wrong."My hands claw at the floor. Nails lengthening into claws. Shredding the concrete. My vision shifts. Goes gold. Everything becomes sharper. Clearer. But wrong. Distorted. Like looking through broken glass.Sounds assault me. Every heartbeat in the building. Every breath. Every whispe
