Ignoring me, Piper shakes her head. “Have you met your fated mate?” he asks next. The answer to this had better be “no.” Piper gives me a guilty look. “No. I was looking for him, but… no. Why?” Dr. Tuttle sighs. “Your symptoms could be consistent with betrayal pains.”

"I have seen the dark side of life." "I have seen love but I have also seen pain" "I had everything...Then I lost everything." "The walls that I have built are to protect me from the dreams of the world." "I have become strong with the things that I survived over the years." "This darkness that surrounds me could have drowned me." "Now that I know I can survive...It's time to let in some of the light."

The frown was an eyesore for his eyes. “Which is why we will hear your proposition.” Cole surrendered. Shadow’s eyes abruptly slitted open. Her yellow-ish pupils flashed right in front of Cole.

A shadow lingered, tainting the moment. A lover’s betrayal could be more than flesh and desire. It could be a seed, planted to fracture trust. And Selene had never felt more uncertain.

The storm of emotions churned within her—anger, jealousy, fear—twisting together until she could scarcely breathe. She didn’t want to believe Ryker’s betrayal, but the image of him and Mara lingered, vivid and raw. Even his explanation felt tainted. She cursed under her breath and clenched her fists until her nails bit into her palms.

Vivian thrived in the shadows, slithering through the filth like a rat. All I had to do was drag her into the light. And I was going to be the one to do it. … Later, Allen texted me, lying again about working late. I smirked and sent a half-hearted reply.

And now someone wanted to turn that fragile beginning into a weapon. She set the phone down, hands shaking, a single thought echoing in her mind: I will not betray him.

The man's sharp eyes watched him intently with a dark expression. "I promise to ruin your life and bring you down, Luca" the man muttered under his breath as he continued to watch Luca. "... even if it's the last thing I do" The man raised his glass to his lips and took a long, deliberate sip, a smile making its way up his lips.
