That night, Adrian arranged for a driver to take Chloe and me back to the Voss house.Before we left, I saw him speaking to Mason at the curb.Mason looked furious. Adrian remained perfectly calm.Even through the car window, the hostility between them was unmistakable.Chloe lasted less than three minutes before pouncing on me.“What is going on between you and my brother?”“It's a long story.”“Then give me the short version.”There was no point hiding it anymore.“Remember Adrian's online girlfriend?”Chloe nodded.“That was me.”The car went silent for a full ten seconds.Chloe's mouth opened, but no sound came out.“You're telling me you're the girl who had my brother volunteering to be her good boy and then blocked him on every platform?”I turned toward the window, unable to meet her eyes.She dug her nails into her thigh to keep from laughing out loud.“Evelyn, you may be the bravest person I've ever met.”Then her expression sobered.“Did he do anything to you?”“No.”After a

Later, Adrian told me that the Mate Bond had carried my pain straight to him and led him to the club.“Don't be afraid. I'm here.”Adrian wrapped me in his coat and pulled me tightly against his chest.My scattered thoughts finally found something solid. I clutched the front of his shirt.“It hurts...”“I know.”His voice was low and steady against my ear.“Listen to my heartbeat. Don't fight her.”The car raced back to the Voss house.My temperature climbed dangerously high. Tiny cracks sounded through my bones as my body began rebuilding itself for its first shift.Adrian carried me into a room lined with thick mats, then called the Voss family doctor and witch.The moment he tried to step away, the wolf inside me let out a wounded whine.My hand shot out and caught his.“Don't go.”Adrian laced his fingers through mine.“I'm not going anywhere.”He released his scent, flooding the room with cedar.The force of his wolf would have driven any other wolf to its knees. Against me, it fe

When I woke again, I was back in human form.Adrian sat beside the bed. His black shirt was hopelessly wrinkled, and the claw marks on his arm had been covered with nothing more than a quick bandage.Even after checking my results twice, the doctor couldn't hide his shock.“You were extremely lucky. The Moonwake broke through the final barrier keeping her wolf asleep.”The elderly witch beside him continued.“Evelyn's wolf spirit has been far more powerful than her body could withstand since birth. To protect her as a child, the wolf put herself into a deep sleep. She used that time to strengthen Evelyn's bones, energy channels, and mental barriers.”I stared at her.“So I was never wolfless?”“Of course not.”The witch's expression was difficult to read.“Your awakening came late because your wolf was too strong. Your body needed nineteen years to prepare for more power than an ordinary sixteen-year-old could carry.”Adrian tightened his hand around mine.“Then why did she start respo

Six months later, Adrian led his team to another world championship.The moment the finals ended, he skipped the interview and walked offstage without celebrating.The broadcast cameras followed the famously aloof Ice King straight to the audience, where he pulled me into his arms.That night, #AdriansMate reached number one on X's US trending chart.By then, I could shift whenever I wanted.The witch had been right. My wolf was far stronger than most high-ranking wolves. During training, she could even overpower Adrian's black wolf.Her only flaw was that she was every bit as clingy as he was.If we went more than a few days without seeing him, she paced endlessly inside my head.Adrian himself was worse than he had ever been online.To the rest of the world, he remained cool and untouchable. At home, he seemed determined to stay in physical contact with me at all times.When I worked on a paper, he rested his chin on my shoulder.When I played ranked, he sat beside me and offered adv
