Natasha POVOn getting outside, I saw two guards already waiting for me, standing by the entrance with straight backs and blank expressions on their faces.Hell, I didn't know how long they had been waiting there or how much they had listened to, but honestly, I didn't care anymore. My chest still felt hollow, my heart still felt bruised, and every thought in my head seemed trapped inside that room I had just walked out of.Without saying much, they led me towards the car that was meant to convey me home, and as I looked through the window, I noticed something strange. Aside from the things I had brought with me which had already been arranged neatly inside, there were several other things packed in as well.My brows pulled together immediately as I stepped closer to inspect them.Sitting there were about ten or twenty gold bars, several expensive silks, and boxes of jewelry that I could bet cost more than a year's savings. There were also expensive designer dresses and shoe bags that

Damon POVThe second the door opened and the next woman walked in, something inside me immediately recoiled.She was tall and beautiful, with high cheekbones, long red hair, and a body that most men would gladly get on their knees for. Normally, she would have been exactly my type, the kind of woman I would have taken one look at and dragged straight to my bed without a second thought.Only none of it appealed to me anymore. Because somewhere along the line, a certain stubborn blonde had completely ruined my taste in women."Alpha..."The woman flashed me a seductive smile before slowly walking toward me with what was obviously meant to be a sexy catwalk. Under normal circumstances, I might have appreciated the effort, but instead, I found myself watching her with growing irritation.It wasn't bad.It just wasn't...It was because it felt forced and I didn't want that. Hell, I wanted that natural sway. That effortless confidence.The way a certain woman walked with her head held high e

Damon POV"Alpha, I think you should calm down. I-I'm sure Katherina is going to be alright."Colleen had been trying to coax me for what felt like the hundredth time that evening as I paced restlessly outside Katherina's ward, waiting for the pack physician Magnus to finish treating her.He had been saying that same thing ever since we arrived, but what he didn't understand was that those were the last words I needed to hear right now."How the hell do I calm down, Colleen?"I stopped pacing so abruptly that he flinched.The shock on his face was immediate. His shoulders stiffened, and he instinctively took a step backward."A-Al-Alpha?""Yes, tell me, Colleen." I ran my hands through my hair before spreading both hand out my hands in frustration. "It's Katherina we're talking about. How exactly do you expect me to calm down when she's lying in there fighting for her life?"My voice rose despite my efforts to control it, and the growl beneath my words was impossible to miss. Colleen v

Natasha POVI still couldn't believe it.Even with Alpha Damon's hand pressed against my waist, firm yet careful enough not to hurt me, I still couldn't actually believe he was kissing me.Like for real?Honestly, when I had woken up, I had expected a lot of things to happen. Anything but definitely not this.The warmth of his body, the scent of pine and earth clinging to him, the feeling of his lips moving against mine. It all felt so unreal that part of me kept waiting to wake up and realize it was another cruel dream.But I couldn't deny how good his lips felt against mine, and with that, I didn't hesitate to give in.Grabbing the front of his shirt, I pulled him closer to me while also giving him access to my mouth, and the moment his tongue slid in, I couldn't help the moan that escaped me."Oh... oohh..."The sound slipped out breathlessly as my eyes fluttered shut. His grip tightened around my waist, and another wave of heat rushed through me, making my stomach twist."Goddess,
