Rayne

Amber’s jaw clenched. Her expression darkened. Her voice was steady, but each word stabbed like glass into my chest.

“Why now? Why do you suddenly feel the need to uphold your so-called responsibilities now?” She asked, chin raised, eyes sharp and unflinching. “I’m not perfect and I won’t hold you to impossible standards but I could have sworn you’d choose death over me. What changed?”

And I—

I didn’t know.

I opened my mouth… and closed it again.

Silence stretched between us.

Because she wasn’t wrong.

Back then, twenty-year-old me would’ve never chosen her. I’d been so deep in my blind devotion to Reed, so warped by loyalty and lies, that the idea of putting Amber first hadn’t even been a blip in my mind.

So what had changed?

I stared down at the floor, her question echoing louder inside me than it had in the room. When had the shift started? Was it when I saw Evalie for the first time? When Amber showed up in court with that fire in her eyes? When she saved my life? Or when I

She is right! Rayne has so much to atone and I feel she deserves better! She deserves someone who will protect her and put her first! Rayne is just following the bond but he has not truly think about all the damage he has done

    Rayne Amber stirred.I was standing by the bed, watching her. I hadn’t moved in over an hour. My back ached, my legs were stiff, and my heart hadn’t calmed since I carried her in here. But the moment her body shifted slightly, a soft murmur slipping past her lips, I snapped into motion. I quickly took a seat at the edge of the bed, careful not to jostle her, but close enough to be there when her eyes opened.And then they did.Those eyes. Those gorgeous blue eyes that haunted my dreams. She blinked, slow and groggy, her brow furrowing in confusion. Her gaze landed on me—just for a second—and then darted away to take in her surroundings.Her bedroom.Realization crashed over her face like a tidal wave, and the confusion instantly melted into fury.“What the hell are you doing here?” she snapped, sitting up abruptly despite the weakness still clouding her features. “Who the hell gave you permission to come into my home?”Her voice was sharper than a blade, slicing right through the car

    RayneOnce the door was blocked, I staggered back toward the bed like a man possessed.My body was a cage of fire. The second I reached the mattress, I ripped the rest of my clothes off and flung them with a snarl, too far gone to care where they landed. I fumbled for the remote on the nightstand and blasted the air conditioning to max, but even the arctic gust that hit my burning skin barely made a dent in the inferno boiling underneath.I was drenched in sweat. My skin radiated heat like I was melting from the inside out.I collapsed onto the bed—heaving, panting—my cock straining hard against my belly, angry and red and leaking, pulsing like a separate, desperate heartbeat. My balls were swollen tight with unreleased cum, so heavy it made my thighs ache. The urge to rut, to fuck, to knot, to breed… it was so powerful I could feel it thrumming in my teeth.My canines throbbed, aching to tear, to claim, to own.And still—I didn’t touch myself.I couldn’t. Wouldn’t.Because what I want

    RayneI couldn’t sit still.My legs just wouldn’t let me. I paced back and forth across the room, shoes dragging along the floor in a rhythm that only matched the thundering of my heart. Every few seconds, my eyes darted back to the bed—her bed—where Amber lay still, her chest rising and falling gently like nothing in the world was wrong.She looked… peaceful. Blissfully unaware of the absolute turmoil she’d brewed inside me.I felt like I was unraveling.Like the very last shreds of sanity I’d been holding onto ever since the night of my rut were crumbling all around me. I knew she was only unconscious. I'd carried her into the house myself and she was still breathing but something inside me couldn't help but be deeply worried about her, especially in the state I just found her.Should I mindlink someone? Maybe take her to a hospital? No, that would be too excessive. I just need to take a breath and calm down. I'm no use to her panicking and unable to think straight.The scent of air

    AmberBy the time the cab rolled to a stop in front of my house, I was hanging by a thread. My throat was raw, my eyes were puffy and sore from crying, and my head throbbed with the kind of ache that came from holding in sobs for too long. I couldn’t even pretend to feel okay anymore. All I wanted was to crawl into bed, bury myself under the covers, and disappear for a while—or maybe forever.“Keep the change,” I muttered to the driver as I shoved a couple bills into his hand. My voice came out hoarse, brittle.“Are you sure—” he started to ask, glancing at me through the rearview mirror.“I’m sure,” I cut him off, already pushing the door open and stepping out onto the pavement.My shoes felt heavy as I trudged up the path. Every part of me ached. Every step took effort. I didn’t even care what I looked like anymore—I could feel my makeup streaked down my cheeks, the tear-stained mess of my face on full display, but I didn’t have it in me to care.I just wanted to get inside. Shut the

    AmberIan looked down at his lap, shoulders sinking beneath the weight of guilt.“Not much, really,” he returned, his voice barely above a whisper. “He was injured and in need of some medical attention, so he was taken to a hospital while I stayed back and tended to some of the sick and injured children.”My brows furrowed. That didn’t make sense. “Didn’t you go visit him at the hospital?”Ian’s jaw twitched. He hesitated before lifting his gaze to mine, shame darkening his eyes like a thundercloud rolling in.“No.” His voice cracked. “My wolf wanted to so badly… he kept pulling toward him, clawing inside me like he was going insane. But I suppressed him. I forced him to quiet down because you’re the only one I want, Amber.”My breath caught.“You have my heart,” he continued hoarsely. “My soul. Everything. You’re the one I want to be with. Having anything to do with Hadrian would’ve just… complicated things. It would’ve ruined what we have. And I couldn’t let that happen. So I ran. Af
