KaelI drive to my mother’s house, and the entire way there I keep wondering why I’m even doing this to myself. It’s not like she ever wants to see me. It’s not like she ever hides how much she hates the sight of me. But I still drive, gripping the steering wheel tight enough that my fingers go numb because I guess some part of me still wants… I don’t even know what I want. Maybe I want her to at least look at me without flinching. Maybe I want her to believe I didn’t enjoy doing what I did. Or maybe I’m just punishing myself again. I don’t know.Her house sits close enough to the pack house that I can still hear faint noises from the training ground behind it, but far enough that she doesn’t have to deal with seeing anyone she doesn’t want to. The windows are shut like always. The curtains never move. It’s the one place that still feels frozen in the past, like every year stopped counting after the day I ruined everything.I park and sit there for a moment because I need to breathe b

Lala Kael steps into the house, and before he can even shut the door properly, Rosella is already running toward him like she has been waiting all day. She crashes into him with that tiny body of hers, arms wrapped around his waist. Her nanny, Rachel, is right behind her, almost tripping on the small rug near the hallway.“Rosie, careful,” Rachel scolds, breathless, but Rosella doesn’t even look at her. She is too busy hugging Kael like she hasn’t seen him in years. She’s twelve, but honestly, with the way everyone fusses over her, they treat her like she’s five. And Kael doesn’t seem to mind. He bends slightly, ruffling her hair in that gentle way he always does with her, even though he tries to pretend he isn’t that soft. He murmurs something to her, probably something calm to get her to release him, and she finally lets go, still holding onto his sleeve like she doesn’t want him disappearing again.His gaze shifts to me after that, and I feel my chest tighten. I don’t know why I r

KaelI had asked the Northern Pack Alpha during my last visit about any good healer who once handled a bite from a mad rogue. He had initially said I better let the warrior die a peaceful death by my bullet.Yeah, that’s the expected response anyone would give… but my situation isn’t something I can just walk away from. I’ve heard the rumors—there are a few healers who can do things people say are impossible. One of them had actually saved a dying warrior bitten by a mad rogue. That’s who I need now.The Alpha promised to send someone. This morning, I got a call. Tona of Hillsnight, the sorcerer who had done it. My stomach clenches. Sorcerers are forbidden. Anyone dealing with them takes risks, and the penalties aren’t small. But there are only two known alive—one is Rhea Handeth in Blackridge, Lala’s friend. The other is Tona. Nobody really knows her. She’s lived alone on the hills since she was little, an orphan, isolated, unheard of.I look at her now, hair tied neatly into a bun,

LalaLater that night, I cry until my chest aches and my throat burns, tears soaking the sleeves of my shirt. I only have a year left. No matter how many times I repeat it, the words still hits me like stones, heavy and undeniable, but strangely, they don’t crush me. Instead, there’s a strange clarity, a sharpness in my chest that makes me see everything I’ve denied myself, every moment of love I’ve refused to give or accept.I press my palms against my face, hoping the pressure will contain the sobs that still tremble in my throat. The room is quiet except for the sound of my own shaking breath. Even with Kael sleeping in the room, I feel the silence pressing in, reminding me that the world keeps moving while I count down the months.For so long, I’ve buried everything inside me. Anger, regret, fear, grief—they’ve all lived in the corners of my chest, feeding off each other. But now, I let them surface. I let myself grieve the life I thought I’d have, the child I lost, the years wast

Lala"Hey, I believe you are able to walk without the pain now right?" Kael’s voice rips me out of my daze. It’s been a week and somehow I’m still here, stuck in his room like the walls are still my chains.I blink at him and nod slowly, my brows pulling together because I don’t trust whatever he’s suddenly planning. My chest tightens with that stupid familiar fear. Is it time? Is he sending me back? I’m not ready to return to that place. I haven’t even finished gathering the things I need. I haven’t even figured out how I’ll disappear without being caught. I start begging the moon goddess in my head like she’s actually listening today."It’s the full moon festival tonight," Kael says, dropping a branded bag right beside me on the bed. The bag bounces once and settles like it belongs here. "You’re coming with me."My pulse stops. Literally stops. I stare at him, trying to search his face because—no, he can’t be serious. He wants to drag me out there? Me, who is supposed to be hidden?

KaelI shouldn’t be staring at her this much, but I can’t help it. The more I tell myself to keep a straight face and just act normal, the more I end up watching her like some fool who doesn’t know how to blink. She’s sitting beside me, chewing something I don’t even remember handing to her, and her eyes sparkle like she’s seeing the world after years underground. And honestly, that’s not far from the truth.I keep pretending I’m here for the festival, but the truth? I’m here because of her. Everything inside me reacts differently tonight, like someone replaced my insides with something softer without telling me.Knowing she has a limited time… yeah, that one slices me open every time the thought crosses my mind. It changes things, even when I don’t want it to. I’m not handling her like a prisoner anymore. I haven’t for a while, but tonight, it’s worse. I notice every little thing—how she laughs too loud, how she tries to hide the happiness that slips out anyway, how she looks around

LalaHis breath fans my lips, is he checking on me or trying to—I don’t even think about it. My body just moves, like something inside me finally snaps after holding back for too long. One second I’m staring at his mouth, the next I’m leaning in, grabbing the front of his shirt to steady myself because my hands won’t stop shaking.My lips land on his, warm and rougher than I expected, and I hear myself breathe out against him. It comes out uneven, almost shaky. I don’t care. I press closer, kissing him again before he can pull away.“I want you,” I say into the tiny space between us. My voice sounds strange to me, thin and bold at the same time. “At least let me taste the man I like before I die.”The words spill out with no filter. I didn’t plan to say them out loud, not like this, but they’re out and hanging between us, and I can’t take them back. My heart thumps so hard it almost hurts, and I feel this tight twist of embarrassment, fear, and something hotter, something that feels a

LalaKael’s hands move on me before I can even think. The straps of my red bra slip down under his fingers, and the next thing I know, it’s off, along with the matching panty. My body is bare beneath his gaze, and a shiver runs through me. Heat rises immediately, but so does the self-consciousness. My scars, every line, every mark I’ve tried to forget, feel loud and exposed.I press my hands to my chest, covering myself instinctively. “Are you… turned off after seeing all the scars?” I ask, voice shaking, trying to shield what I feel.Kael flinches, just a slight twitch, but his gaze doesn’t leave me. Instead, he leans closer, his hand sliding under me, lifting my hips slightly. His lips press to my belly, soft, warm, and I shiver involuntarily.He moves slowly, deliberate. His lips trace the lines of my scars, lingering on each one as though memorizing them. When he reaches my breasts, his mouth closes over one nipple, sucking lightly while his fingers knead the other. My back arches

KaelI can’t hold back anymore, the way her eyes stare brightly at me as her hand wraps around my cock makes my whole body shiver. Fuck, I want to be inside her so bad I feel it in my damn teeth. I don’t even know how I’ve been holding myself together this long. Her touch is soft but desperate, like she’s trying to memorize the feeling of me in her hand, and it just pushes me over that thin line I’ve been tiptoeing since she opened her eyes and said she wanted me.I press down softly on her chest, letting her lie back down. Her hair spreads out on the pillow, her lips already parted, her breathing shaky like she’s been waiting for this longer than she’ll ever admit. My hand catches her breast again, filling my palm, and my mouth sucks on the other one. She breathes out soft little moans that hit my stomach and twist there. I take the remaining moans into my mouth as I lower myself, kissing down her skin, finding her immediately the way my body remembers her even if my mind tries to pr

KaelI try to roll on my side but I hit something solid. Dark hair. I open my eyes, and it all comes back—the way Lala smelled last night, the way her hands moved on me, the heat in her eyes. My gaze drops to her neck, and I see it. My mark. Confident, sharp, permanent.I shouldn’t have done that. I wasn’t supposed to mark her. My chest tightens, the weight of it presses down on me. What the fuck was I thinking marking a prisoner in my care and sleeping with her? I run a hand through my head… this mark—It’s sacred. Irreversible. I’ve tied her to me, and I didn’t ask; for her consent.My chest aches, guilt threatening to crush me. I should apologize. But instead, the words come out rough, low, almost strangled. “...My mark looks good on you,” I shouldn’t sound possessive, shouldn’t feel proud.Lala’s hand moves instinctively, brushing my mark on her neck. The slow, gentle motion sends waves through me, undeniable. Clear signs—we’re mated. I can feel her wolf, the pulse beneath her skin
