NinaI wake up, horny as hell.Again.This isn’t normal. This can’t be normal. I flip over in bed, kicking the sheets off in frustration, but it only makes it worse. The cool air hits my skin, and my nipples harden instantly. My mind flashes to Elijah—his hands, his mouth, the way he kissed me like he owned me all those years ago.No. No, no, no. I groan, pressing my thighs together, trying to fight off the rising heat between them. This isn’t fair. Jaxon’s still in my heart, and I’m here thinking about a kiss from a decade ago like it was yesterday.I give up the fight. My hand slips down, finding that spot that’s been throbbing all morning. I close my eyes, and despite myself, my brain conjures up images of Jaxon—his strong hands, the roughness of his voice when he says my name, the way his eyes darken when he looks at me now. It’s wrong, but I’m already too far gone. My fingers move faster, my breath catching as I tip over the edge.For a moment, the tension eases, but the guilt se

JaxonI wake up hard, again. Half-asleep, my hand reaches over, searching for her warmth. I know she’s gone, but some part of me still thinks she’s going to be there, curled up beside me. The bed is cold, empty, and the reminder hits harder than I expected.My mind drifts to memories I thought I’d moved past, replaying the few times we actually did fall into bed together. They were rare enough that each one is etched into me, sharper and more painful than I care to admit. I used to tell myself we’d work it out, that she’d understand what it meant to be married to someone like me. Now, lying here alone, the truth’s obvious: I took her for granted, and she’s gone. And there’s no one to blame but myself.I throw off the covers and head to the shower, hoping the hot water will help clear my mind. But the memories follow me. Her laugh, her scent, the way she’d look at me like I was the only one who mattered. They hit me harder than the water pounding against my shoulders. My jaw clenches,

NinaI finally pull up to the gate, a wave of anxiety washing over me. The driver glances back at me through the rearview mirror. “You sure you wanna go in?”“Yeah,” I say, straightening my shoulders. “Just go ahead. I’ll be right in.”He raises an eyebrow. “Alright, but don’t mention this to anyone, okay?”“Promise. I’ll be fine,” I assure him, my stomach twisting as I watch him nod and drive on.As I step out of the car, I spot someone leaning against a parked vehicle. My heart skips, and then sinks all at once. It’s Jaxon.“What the hell are you doing here?” I demand, striding toward him. My pulse quickens—not from excitement but from a mix of anger and confusion.He pushes off the car and strides toward me, the worry etched on his face. “Nina, why are you crying? Who the fuck made you cry?”I push him back, trying to create some distance. “What do you mean? What are you doing here? Do you have a fucking death wish?”“You weren’t picking up,” he snaps, frustration bubbling under th

JaxonElijah Drake.That's the man Nina was on a date with yesterday. It only took the private investigator a couple of hours to gather everything on him, and I've been going through his file since.I know. It's not a good look, but jealousy and curiosity got the better part of me. I had to know who my mate was going out with. Elijah is a normal guy, a typical alpha billionaire, however, one thing stands out. While I'm certain that Nina's family hates my guts, Elijah appears to have quite a close relationship with them.His name appears severally in most of the family's business deals. His pack, the Night Shadow, is the neighboring pack —a fact that doesn't sit well with me. Every detail about the man feels like a knife twisting in my gut.Could they be planning to merge their packs? If they got married…Fuck! The idea alone makes jealousy fire through my insides, surging like bile in my throat.I could lose Nina. Forever.The realization hits me like a ton of bricks. I am reminded of

Nina"You don't have to do this, Nina," Lucas pleads for the umpteenth time.We are heading toward the scene of the incident, and I insisted on coming along with the rest of the pack despite Dominic's warning of the macabre details of the death."I want to. I'm the alpha, it's my responsibility to be there for my pack," I reply firmly.The tension is palpable as we approach the clearing where the attack took place. The scent of blood and death hangs heavy in the air, making my stomach churn.I survey the scene, taking in the broken branches, the patches of torn earth, and the splatters of blood on the ground. My wolf stirs within me, restless and angry at the injustice that has been done to our pack.Lucas puts a hand on my shoulder, his touch grounding me. "Are you ready for this?" he asks quietly.I nod, steeling myself for what I am about to see. As the alpha, I must stay strong for my pack, even in the face of such horror.We step into the clearing, and my breath catches in my thr
