Kaireen's Pov "Do you understand the pain I'm going through?" he asked, and there was something raw and desperate in his voice now. "Not being able to have you, hold you, claim you as mine? And the only way I try to make you stay close to me, you push me away over and over again. How am I supposed to protect you when you keep insisting you want to be independent, that you don't need me?""I don't need you," I said, but it was a lie and we both knew it."Yes you do," he said, leaning closer until his forehead was almost touching mine. "You need my protection. You need to be around me. Fuck what the pack says, fuck the rules that claim you're my sister, because to me you're my fucking life. Do you get it? Everything I've been doing, kissing her, letting her act like Luna, going through with this marriage, it's all been a reaction to you pushing me away. I hate it. I hate not being able to be with you. I hate not being able to touch you without someone watching. I hate not being able to

Kaireen's Pov I stood at the entrance of his cabin for what felt like an eternity, my hand hovering over the door handle, my heart pounding so hard I could hear it in my ears. Every instinct I had was screaming at me to turn around and run back to Rhia's guest room and pretend this night never happened, pretend I never made the decision to come here and give myself to him. But my wolf was pushing me forward, desperate and needy and done with all the running, and my body was already aching for his touch in a way that made my thighs clench together.I turned the handle slowly and the door opened without a sound because Ronan always kept his hinges oiled, always kept everything in perfect working order, and I slipped inside and closed it behind me just as quietly. The cabin was warm from the fireplace still burning low in the living area, casting everything in orange and gold light, and I could see Ronan sitting at his desk in the corner completely focused on whateve

Ronan's Pov She started explaining why she was late, something about Rhia and second guessing herself and almost turning back, and I did not give a single fuck about any of that because the only thing that mattered was that she was here in my cabin wearing that green dress that hugged every curve of her body and looking at me like she wanted to be devoured. So I crossed the room and grabbed her and slammed her back against the wall next to the balcony door and kissed her hard enough to bruise, swallowing whatever words were about to come out of her perfect mouth.Her scent hit me full force, honey and vanilla and arousal so thick I could taste it on my tongue, and my cock went rock hard in my sweatpants straining toward her like it had a mind of its own. My hands were moving before I could think, sliding down her sides, gripping her waist, pulling her flush against me so she could feel exactly what she did to me, and I heard her gasp and felt her body melt into mine."I missed you,"

Kaireen's Pov He did not stop after that first time. I thought maybe we would lay there and catch our breath and talk about what this meant for us, but Ronan had other plans because the second he finished marking me and sealing the bond he was already hard again inside me, and I felt him start to move and my body responded instantly even though I was still shaking from my first orgasm."Again?" I gasped, my fingers digging into his shoulders."Again," he confirmed, his voice dark and rough. "I've waited years for you, Kaireen. I'm not stopping until the sun comes up and you can't remember your own name."He pulled out and slammed back in and I cried out at the intensity of it, at the way he hit something deep inside me that made my vision go white, and then he was fucking me hard and fast like he was trying to prove a point, like he was trying to erase every moment we had spent apart."Look at me," he commanded, and my eyes snapped open to meet his gaze.His golden eyes were complete

Kaireen's Pov I woke up to bright sunlight streaming through the windows directly onto my face, and I squeezed my eyes shut against it and groaned because my entire body was sore in places I did not even know could be sore. My thighs ached, my hips were stiff, there was a delicious soreness between my legs that reminded me of exactly what Ronan and I had done for hours last night, and when I shifted slightly I felt the dried evidence of our activities on my inner thighs and I flushed hot with the memory of it.I reached out to the other side of the bed expecting to find him still there, expecting to curl into his warmth and maybe convince him to stay in bed a little longer, but my hand met only cold sheets and I opened my eyes properly to find myself alone in the room.That was when I noticed how bright it was outside, how high the sun already sat in the sky, and I sat up fast and looked around frantically for a clock. There was one on the nightstand and when I saw
