CHAPTER ONE

“What you’re feeling right now is a childish infatuation, kiddo. Don’t worry, you’ll grow past it.”I stared at my reflection in the mirror, jaw clenched so tight my teeth ached, as those words which had broken my heart seven years ago echoed through my mind for the hundredth time since I came home.Grow past it my ass.It’s been seven years.Seven years since Gabriel had crushed my eighteen-year-old heart with those words, and here I was—still completely, pathetically, hopelessly in love with him. If anything, the years apart had made it worse.I had tried… so hard in college to make this aching for him go away. I went on different dates, flirted with different men, but none of them were him.None of them would ever be him.My bedroom door burst open, pulling me out of my thoughts.“Amara!” Mom practically flew across the room, and wrapped me in a bear-tight hug. “Oh, sweetheart, I’m so happy you’re finally home. For good this time. And graduated! My baby graduated! Can you believe i

CHAPTER TWO

I stared at the three of them—my parents beaming like they’d just won the lottery, Gabriel looking pleased with himself—and felt my entire world crack apart.Then I turned to Gabrel and fixed my agze on him, “You really want to marry me off to someone else?”The words came out calmer than I felt. Steadier. Like I was asking about the weather instead of the complete destruction of every hope I’d been clinging to for seven years.Something flickered in Gabriel’s eyes., but it was briec and gone before I could pin point what it was.“Of course,” he said simply. “Your parents and I thought it was a good idea. The best idea, actually.”“Why?” My hands were trembling in my lap. I pressed them against my thighs to still them. “Why would you do this?”Gabriel leaned forward, “Because I have your best interests at heart, sweetheart. You know that. You’re like a daughter to me, and I only want—”“I am not your freaking daughter!”I yelled and mum flinched.But I was too angry to care.“You had

CHAPTER THREE

I turned slowly, dreading what I’d find.Marcus stood by the doorway, holding a bouquet of sunflowers, and wearing a wide and eager grin. He looked nothing like Gabriel.That was the first thing that came to my mind, as I stared at him.Where Gabriel was all sharp edges and commanding presence, Marcus was… soft. Pleasant-looking in that generic, forgettable way. Brown hair instead of black. Hazel eyes instead of storm gray. Average height, average build. Wearing khakis and a polo shirt like he was headed to a country club.Irritation washed over me so intensely I had to dig my nails into my palms to keep from saying something I’d regret.“Amara!” Marcus’s grin somehow widened. “It’s so good to finally meet you properly. I mean, we met when we were kids, but that doesn’t really count, does it? Uncle Gabriel’s told me so much about you. I brought flowers—sunflowers, because your dad mentioned they were your favorite.”They weren’t. Peonies were my favorite and Gabriel knew that.“That’

CHAPTER FOUR

My chest tightened painfully, making it hard for air to fill my lungs properly.He was….he was kissing another woman.I knew it was his personal lifeband I should probably turn around and not interrupt but watching him like tgis with someone else…watching the woman touch him in ways I coud only do in my dream, set off a wave of rage inside me that made my heartbeat accelerate.So I took a few steps forward, and cleared my throat loudly.They both scattered like teenagers caught making out in their parent;s basement.The blonde practically flew off Gabriel’s lap, smoothing down her skirt ad buttonong her shirt with shaky hands. Gabriel stood more slowly, his expression shifting from surprise to a neutral one that betrayed no emotion.I wanted to yell at him but I needed to be professional.Even if I felt like I was dying inside.“Good morning, Alpha,” I said, my voice remarkably steady despite the fact that my heart was currently being shredded. “I came in early to get started on my f

CHAPTER FIVE

|| Gabriel ||💕💕💕Fuck! Fuck!! Fuck!!!I stood there like a fucking idiot, staring at the door she’d just walked out of.The office was filled with her scent… sweet and warm like vanilla mixed with whatever sin she’d decided to wear today.I touched my lips, which were still tingling from that mind-blowing and hungry kiss that made a grown-ass man like me forget my own damn name. I should’ve fucking stopped her.I should’ve grabbed her shoulders, set her away, told her gently that this was wrong on every level known to God and man.Instead, I’d kissed her back for three full seconds before my brain kicked in. Three seconds too long.Now she was gone, and I was losing my fucking mind.My hands shook as I dragged them through my hair. I could still feel her body pressed against mine, soft in all the places I had no business noticing.And Christ, the way she’d looked at me right before she left—eyes glassy, lips swollen, cheeks flushed like she’d just been thoroughly fucked instead of

CHAPTER SIX

|| Gabriel ||💕💕By the end of the day, I’d lost count of how many times I’d called myself every foul name in the book.Pervert.Sick.Disgusting.Predator.The words circled my skull like vultures while I sat locked in my office long after the building went dark. I didn’t leave until the cleaning crew finished their rounds, until I was sure Amara’s car was gone from the garage, because I couldn’t look at her. Couldn’t risk seeing those lips again and remembering how they tasted, how my own body had betrayed me in the worst way possible in that bathroom.She was my best friend’s daughter… and seventeen years younger at that.The little girl I used to carry on my shoulders.And I’d come harder than I ever had in my life picturing her mouth on me.I drove home with the windows down even though it was freezing, hoping the cold would slap some sense back into me.It didn’t.Nothing did.The guilt sat heavy on my chest like a stone, pressing harder with every mile.When I pulled into the

CHAPTER SEVEN

Dear Diary…I had no idea if I am mad as in angry or mad as in simply going crazy.Either way… I am M.A.D.X.O.X.O💕💕💕It's been two whole days. Two days. Forty-eight hours. Two thousand eight hundred and eighty excruciating minutes since I had kissed Gabriel and watched the world ignite in his eyes for exactly three seconds before he smothered it with ice-cold panic.But since then, all I had gotten was radio silence.He hadn’t come to the office. Hadn’t answered a single one of my carefully casual “good morning” texts—which bruised the fuck out of my ego. The bastard, the coward, had been hiding. Hiding from the girl who dared remind him she wasn’t eight years old anymore.But the worst part was that a stupid, pathetic corner of my heart had actually been hurt that he’d go to such lengths just to avoid me… as if seeing my face would ruin his day or his entire life.Coward.I didn’t know if I regretted doing it—if I wished I could go back in time and stop my lips from ever touc

CHAPTER EIGHT

“I’m sorry about the kiss the other day. It was inappropriate, and it won’t happen again.”The words were barely out of my mouth when I saw a flicker flash across Gabriel’s face so fast, I almost thought I had imagined it. His shoulders locked, jaw clenched and then the icy ‘I don’t give a damn what you do’ mask fell back on.“Good,” he said, keeping his voice perfectly level. “That’s… good. I’m happy to hear it. You should give Marcus a real chance. He’s a solid guy. You two could be good together.”He paused, and the next part came out softer, almost gentle, like he was trying to soothe a kid who’d skinned her knee.“As for the kiss… don’t worry about it. I know it was just you being young and getting carried away. It happens.”Just you being young.Just a child.Getting carried away.Every word out of that annoying mouth landed like a slam.I clenched my fist, struggling to maintain my own neutral expression.Fuck you. I wanted to scream, instead I gave him a sweet smile.“Of cours

CHAPTER NINE

My head, along with the other girls’, snapped around at the roar and my breath just… stopped.Because… HOLY FREAKING MAMA!!!There was no word adequate enough to describe the man who was glaring at Victoria and her minions.He filled the hallway like a storm front rolling in: tall, broad-shouldered, dressed in a charcoal suit that looked like it was poured over muscle instead of tailored. Midnight-black hair fell just past his collar, a little wild, like he’d been running his hands through it. Sharp jaw, high cheekbones, and eyes the color of molten gold.He looked like an embodiment of danger itself.Second-hottest man I’d ever seen.Only one person had ever hit me harder, and he was currently pretending I was a kid with a crush.“Alpha Zayne…” Victoria squeaked, and all of a sudden the venom that had been dripping from her voice was gone. Instead, she sounded terrified. “We had no idea you were coming here today.”Alpha Zayne? Who was this man?He didn’t even glance at her. “Let me

CHAPTER TEN

My hand flew to my mouth so fast I nearly bruised my own lips.The Emerald Wolf is awakening.Track her.Kill her.Every word hit me like a physical blow. My knees buckled, and I had to brace myself against the wall to keep from collapsing right there in the hallway.They knew.The hunters already knew I was here—at least they knew that the emerald wolf… not me specifically… had woken up here in the city. Which basically meant that it wouldn’t be too long till they track me down.Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck!And they had sent Zayne? Beautiful, charming Zayne who was making my stomach flutter was the assassin sent to kill me?I pressed my back flat against the wall, lungs working too hard, heart slamming so violently against my ribs I could hear the blood rushing in my ears. My wolf was clawing at my insides, panicked, desperate to run.But I needed to hear more. Needed any scrap of information that could keep me alive.Gabriel’s voice filtered through the door first. “How sure are you tha
