Ethan's POVThe night air was cold on my skin as I drove away from the Moonstone Pack. I held the steering wheel so tight that my knuckles turned red. Inside me, my wolf howled in pain, a cry so deep, it felt like it would break me from within."Go back," my wolf urged from within. "Go back and claim what is ours. Fight for her.""I can't," I said through clenched teeth, though every fiber of my being screamed to do exactly that. "Alpha Marcus gave his order. If I defy him now, I will start a war between our packs.""Then let there be war!" my wolf roared. "She is our mate! Our destined one! We cannot just leave her there with that snake, Derek."I wanted to argue, but the truth was, my wolf was right. Every mile I drove away from Jessie felt like I was tearing my own heart out. The mate bond pulled at me, a physical pain that grew worse with each passing moment.I had made it about ten miles down the highway when I suddenly slammed on the brakes, my car screeching to a halt in the mi

Jessie's POVThe vehicle came closer, and my heart dropped into my stomach as three large vehicles screeched to a halt on the lonely road. Dust rose around them, forming a scary cloud as the sunlight began to fade.The first door opened, and Derek stepped out.My blood ran cold. He was not alone. Six of his pack's strongest warriors emerged from the vehicles, their muscles rippling under tight shirts; their expressions were hard, and they were ready for violence."No," I breathed, instinctively moving backward toward Ethan.Derek's eyes locked onto me, then shifted to Ethan standing protectively beside me. His jaw clenched, and something dark and possessive flashed across his face."Jessie," Derek called out, his voice was deceptively calm as he walked forward. "It is time to come home."Without thinking, I ran to Ethan, pressing myself against his side. His arm immediately wrapped around me, pulling me close and slightly behind him. The protective gesture was both comforting and terr

Jessie's POVMy father stood at the center, his Alpha aura commanding absolute attention. All the people who gathered stood rigid and were waiting for his judgment. I could feel Derek's hand still holding my arm; it was possessive and tight, as if he was already claiming ownership.My father's eyes swept across the people before landing on me. What I saw there made my blood run so cold. This was not the warm and loving father who had comforted me after my mother's death. This was Alpha Marcus, pack leader, and his face was carved from stone. My father was so different."Jessie," his voice rang out. It was formal and so distant. "You have defied my direct orders. You ran away, thereby putting yourself in danger. You consorted with a male wolf I clearly rejected as your mate. You have disgraced this pack and dishonored your mother's memory.""Dad, plea..se.." I started, but his raised hand cut me off."I gave you a command as your Alpha and as your father," he continued, his voice growl

Jessie's POV I had been locked in my room for a complete day now, and my father had maintained his word with iron resolve. No visitors. No exceptions. No mercy. It was just me. The first night had been the worst. I had cried until I had no tears left, then I had lain on my destroyed room's floor, staring at the ceiling until exhaustion finally claimed me. When I woke, my cheek still hurt from where my father's hand had struck me; it was a constant reminder of how far he was willing to go. I had tried everything. Screaming until my voice went weak. I pounded on the door until my fists were bruised. Begging, pleading, threatening. Nothing worked. Nothing at all. The guards outside remained silent and unmoved, following their Alpha's orders to the letter. It was a terrible situation. Food had been brought twice, slid through a small slot in the door like I was a prisoner in a dungeon. I could not eat. The thought of food made my stomach turn. All I could think about was Ethan, locked

Jessie's POV I stood frozen in the middle of my room, my eyes fixed on the door, hardly daring to breathe. What had just happened? Who had been fighting? Were the guards okay? Or had something terrible just occurred?"Hello?" I called out hesitantly. "What is going on?"No answer. Just that terrible, heavy silence.I took a step toward the door, then another, and my bare feet were silent on the floor. "Is someone there?" Still nothing.My hand reached out, trembling, toward the door handle. But before I could touch it, I heard the lock click from the outside.I stumbled backward, my heart was in my throat. This was it. They were coming for me. Coming to dress me up like a doll and parade me down the aisle to my doom.The door began to swing open, and I braced myself to see Derek's face, or my father's stern expression, or the guards coming to collect me.But the figure that appeared in the doorway made my breath catch, made my heart stop, made the entire world tilt on its axis.It wa
