Gabby snapped. "You think I wasn't hurt when we broke up" Tan snapped back. The business man inside him snarled at the same time. "I could care less, if you were hurt Tan, I wasn't the one that called off the engagement so stop throwing a pity party, but since this is a business and I promised myself I would not let my personal life get in the way of my work life I would agree to the terms about being business partners." Her words flowed endlessly penetrating into his heart like a dagger.

He took a deep breath and continued. "I can't take the weight of your love, I just can't. I'm getting lost on you, I feel like you'll be safe in the hands of another. I'm beyond damaged, I'm broken to the core. There are times I've felt maybe I'm not broken, just bent, but now, now I know I'm broken. Despite knowing broken things still work, I also know there's an expiry date. Broken things work till they don't."

No John, no Sarah, just a faint glow from the altar shards. Clint stepped forward in shock. Saraphina knelt, touching one of the shards. “They’re gone.” But then…A heartbeat echoed, one, then another. From the broken altar, light pulsed again.

A bone being snapped. A dam giving way. The blood moon’s red shattered. Chunks of color broke off, falling away into nothing. White light seared through the fractures, flooding down over us in a blinding cascade. The web shook. I felt it. Every thread Elyra had woven, every bargain, every curse, every whispered “take her instead” trembled under the force we’d shoved through it. Some held. Some snapped. The ones tied to us—Lucian’s line, my blood, Kade’s shadow—broke first.

“I’m not going to hurt you.” “I don’t know that. You say you aren’t going to hurt me, but the way you act sometimes hurts me. One day you treat me like you want me. Then the next you’re telling people I don’t mean anything to you. That we are only friends. I can’t take that. Not from you. I’m already broken, Dmitry. But you the power to shatter me.” His eyebrows wrinkled together. “Dani. For days now, I have been trying to tell you how I feel.”

I have a huge smile on my face completely unaware of what's about to happen. "Okay, I Heather Black, Gamma's daughter, reject Allistar Macken as my mate." She doesn't even flinch as she rips my soul apart. She even has a smile on her face. All I can feel is the burning in my heart where the bond is trying to sever. God it feels like there's fire burning through my veins and all my bones are breaking at the same time. This pain is unbearable. I never in a million years thought being rejected was a possibility. People are rarely rejected because we all know how precious the gift of a mate is.

I said in breath trying to move away from his grip. "Why don't you want to listen me" He asked impatiently. "Because it's not required" I Snapped. His grip loosen on my arms, I moved away from him.

On my way, I ended up bumping into the marble vase on the table beside her and it shattered on the floor with a loud clank. Surprised by the loud noise, Hazel woke up and stared at me, and then at the floor where the broken pieces laid.
