Zara
Ranold jumped down three steps and landed deftly on the flat surface, then turned to face . His expression was clearly troubled as he stood before , his hands shoved deep into his pockets.
"I’m serious, Zara. There are things about Kane you don’t know. Please don’t get involved in his world; it’s too dark for you. Leave before you get sucked in."
I froze. Ranold didn’t understand how deeply my life had been disrupted. Barely maintaining my sanity, I had already gone too far, but I wasn’t going to leave until I had all the answers.
"I will rember your words." But his words left a mark on my soul. "Don’t get involved in his world; it’s too dark for you." What exactly did he an?
Luckily, we reached the underground parking garage. He held the door for and gave his signature charming smile. I thanked him for escorting downstairs and headed to the car.
Alpha and Kaysir were already waiting for . The forr looked irritated, his usually impassive face betraying his emotions today, while the latter looked like he’d just been reprimanded.
"I’m delivering your girlfriend safe and sound," Ranold waved and called out from behind the door with a flirtatious smile, causing Kane’s jaw to clench even more.
Ranold disappeared before the heartless beast could pounce on him, and Kaysir lowered his head.
I could only assu that Ranold had chased Kaysir away, and Alpha had scolded him for leaving alone. He wasn’t pleased that Ranold had escorted downstairs. This gave an idea.
Maybe I should entertain his best friend more often, just to annoy him. Alpha definitely showed more emotion when Rannold was around .
Smugly, I ignored the enraged beast and headed to my side of the car. Kaysir rushed to open the door and helped get settled, taking my bag.
Soon, Alpha approached from the other side, slling even more strongly of tobacco.
’He seed to be smoking more and more.’ Nova was worried for her Alpha’s health.
A deathly silence fell between us; I tried not to give in to the thought that he was drunk. His hands gripped his knees, veins bulging like blue streams.
"Belt!" he finally blurted out as the car started moving, and I didn’t even bother putting it on.
I ignored him, as if I hadn’t heard what he said, and turned to look out the window. My fingers drumd on my knees.
He leaned toward , and I felt his imposing presence even before I saw him. No part of him touched , and yet this comforting closeness made my heart beat like a Formula 1 car.
Grabbing the buckle, he yanked the belt violently. His hand slid down my arm, and I tried to pull away. He adjusted the buckle inside the latch, securing securely.
He turned his head as I tried to pull my face back, but there was no room. Barely a centiter separated us; I could see every tense contour of his face.
Irritation was evident in his dead eyes. I looked into his eyes, irritation creeping up on , but my heart and body lived their own lives. My wolf still loved his closeness after all he had done.
"Hating doesn’t an you should risk your safety," he growled, clenching his jaw, his nostrils flaring as if he was struggling to breathe.
I looked at him with disdain, his heartless The words still rankled in my mory. "Why do you care whether I live or die? Shouldn’t you be glad if I die, so there’ll be no one to worry about?"
"You." The mask of indifference cracked at the edges. No matter how hard he tried to hide his emotions, such vulnerability flashed in his eyes at that mont that I almost flinched. It vanished as quickly as it had appeared.
"I don’t have ti to find and raise another Luna. Stay alive." With those heartless words, he straightened up and walked away, leaving cold and on the verge of tears. But I promised myself I wouldn’t cry for him anymore.
Bending over, I pressed the button and unbuckled my belt, lifting the buckle I’d pulled and throwing it away.
"You don’t tell what to do anymore. Fuck you and your belt," I muttered in a low voice, so Kaysir wouldn’t hear, but only Alpha would.
The next mont, this icy giant wrapped his muscular arms around my waist, lifted , and sat on his lap. I tried to break free, but he was made of steel.
He quietly sat on his lap, knowing I wouldn’t scream or make a fuss because of Kaysir.
"Have it your way, Zara. You’re safe, under my protection." He hugged tightly, as if I were sothing precious he was afraid to lose. I sat awkwardly on his lap, turning my back so as not to see his face.
But I could so sensually feel the thickness and perfect muscles of his thighs beneath his buttocks. I could even feel the warmth of his stupid breath on the back of my neck, making the hairs on my neck stand on end.
"Yes! I’ll only break your heart, but your bones and flesh, that’s too much." What double standards, asshole Alpha had.
Her threats and fiery temper
***
Kane
It felt like an eternity since I’d felt any semblance of peace. Apparently, wounding an innocent heart ant terrible consequences, and I deserved every ounce of pain that tore at my heart.
Coffee and cigarettes beca my best friends, and I smoked more than I should have, but forgetting her was impossible when she was around.
I should have let her go, but deep down, I was a selfish bastard.
Besides, I knew she wouldn’t leave. She loved her family too much to endanger them. It was her weakness. And I, like the idiot she now liked to call , was going to exploit her weakness to my advantage.
