01:08My mate, the new alpha of the pack
01:16Strong, loyal, everything I'd ever hoped for
01:19Tomorrow at his coronation, he was going to propose to me in front of the whole pack and name me
01:24his Luna
01:33My heart was racing just thinking about it
01:36I picked up the laced Rhea box I'd spent weeks preparing
01:39Today, I would finally become his Luna
01:45At the ceremony, I tucked the box against my side and kept my eyes locked on Kylan
01:55He stood on the stage in full ceremonial dress
01:58My alpha, my future
02:00His father announced him as the new alpha
02:10Kieran took the microphone
02:13My heart kicked
02:14My foot was already moving forward
02:17But his eyes slid past me straight to my adoptive sister Mia
02:21Mia Ashwood?
02:22My sister?
02:23I understood everything in a single second
02:25This was a setup
02:27It had always been a setup
02:28The whole hall burst into laughter
02:30Every alpha, every beta, every omega
02:33Who'd ever looked down on me
02:34Now feasting on my humiliation
02:36Something inside me snapped
02:39I ran up the steps and grabbed Kieran by the collar
02:42Screaming
02:43He shoved me off like garbage
02:47Then he looked me dead in the eye
02:49And said the words that would end him
02:51The golden bond between us snapped with a sickening crack
03:22Congratulations, little sister
03:24There are three alphas at that place
03:26Alex is the worst of them
03:30A monster
03:31An absolute devil
03:44When I opened my eyes again
03:45I was standing at the gates of the Lycan Reform Academy
03:48A roar of voices
03:49A crowd surging toward the training grounds
03:53Screams everywhere
03:54I was swept along with them
03:56Shoved all the way to the front
03:58Before I could fight it
04:02In the center of the arena
04:04A man was tied to a wooden board
04:06Lined with small blades
04:07Blood everywhere
04:09Still breathing
04:10Three massive werewolves
04:12Stride slowly forward
04:13Their fur glistens brightly
04:15Exuding an overpowering
04:16Commanding aura
04:18In an instant
04:20A burst of harsh light
04:22Flares up
04:22And they shift from beast to human
04:25All at once
04:25Revealing stunning
04:27Almost impossibly perfect physiques
04:33Leading them is Alex
04:35Broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted
04:37His sharp, cold features carry a menacing edge
04:40An eye patch covers his eyes
04:42And a violent, dangerous awarma clings to him
04:44Warning everyone to stay away
04:46Right beside him is Griffin
04:47His rich burgundy shirt hangs open wide
04:50Putting his defined six-pad on full display
04:53Bold and devilishly charming
04:55He always wears a teasing, playful smirk on his lips
04:58On the far side stands Jasper
04:59Holding a crisp white shirt in his hand
05:01He has a gentle, pure aura
05:03With soft, relaxed features
05:04Like a quiet, elegant gentleman
05:05Bathed in moonlight
05:06He is the only one of the three
05:08Who seems entirely harmless
05:09Wait
05:10The demons Mia warned me about?
05:12The three men from my dreams?
05:14Alex pulled a knife from his belt
05:16And flicked it
05:17It whistled past the bound man's ear
05:20And buried itself in the wood
05:21The crowd erupted in cheer
05:23Something inside me broke open
05:25Every moment of the ceremony came rushing back
05:29Kieran's face
05:30Mia's whisper
05:31The laughter
05:32I stopped thinking
05:34I ran out into the center of the ring
05:36And planted myself in front of the bound man
05:39Screaming up at Alex
05:45A blade whistled past my ear
05:47So close it grazed my lobe
05:49And buried itself in the board
05:50Right between the bound man's legs
05:52One inch higher and it would have ended him
05:54Alex was already walking toward me
05:57Slow
05:58Predatory
05:59The crowd stared at me like I was insane
06:02I forced myself to meet his eyes through the blindfold
06:06Tried to keep my breathing steady
06:08It only made him angrier
06:09He closed the distance
06:11I thought I was dead
06:12Then Jaster caught his arm
06:14I stepped back on instinct
06:16And hit something warm
06:17A chest
06:20Griffins
06:21He tipped my Chima up with one finger
06:23And smirked down at me
06:24All three of them
06:26All three men from my dreams
06:29Who the hell are you?
06:31My name is Freya Ashwith
06:46Alex's fingers tightened around my neck
06:48His eyes burned
06:49Before I could answer
06:50He turned away and spit a mouthful of blood onto the ground
06:52His face was white as death
06:54I stumbled back
06:54Lungs heaving
06:55One word in my head
06:56Run
06:57I didn't stop until my back hit a cold stone wall
06:59Only then did I let myself breathe
07:01That dream
07:02The faces
07:03The bonds
07:04All three of them
07:05The same three men from my bed at night
07:07How could any of it be real?
07:10Mates?
07:11Three mates?
07:13A wolf couldn't have three mates
07:15It wasn't possible
07:16I was losing my mind
07:18I forced my feet to move
07:19Toward the dormitory
07:21The only place that was mine
07:22I pushed the door open
07:24And a hand sped out of the dark
07:25And yanked me inside
07:26My back slammed against the wood
07:28I looked up into Alex's blood-red eyes
07:30His breath was scorching
07:32He didn't give me a second to speak
07:34His mouth crashed down on mine
07:36Hard
07:37Devouring
07:38Like he was trying to break me open and crawl inside
07:40I shoved him off with everything I had
07:43And he let me
07:44He just stood there
07:45Chest heaving
07:45His eyes were still red
07:47But underneath the violence I saw something else
07:49Pain
07:49He was fighting something I couldn't see
07:51I looked down
07:52The three golden bonds on my wrist were wriggling
07:55Burning gold
07:57A horrible thought crossed my mind
08:01You're in rut, aren't you?
08:05The words lit him up like a match
08:07He slammed my wrists above my head
08:08His other hand locking around my waist
08:10His palm burned through my dress
08:11His lips grazed down my throat
08:13Biting, tasting, possessive
08:14And every touch turned my knees to water
08:16I mustered the last of my strength
08:17And slapped him across the face
08:19He froze
08:19Stared at me
08:20The red in his eyes flickered
08:21And under it I saw raw desire
08:23And rawer self-hatred
08:24But his alpha scent kept rolling off him
08:26Thick, overwhelming
08:27Pulling me under
08:28I knew if I stayed one more second
08:30I was going down with him
08:31I tore out of that room on shaking legs
08:33And fled into the hall
08:34Griffin and Jasper were standing there
08:36Frozen
08:37Their eyes locked on mine
08:39Pure shock on both their faces
08:45Deep in the night
08:46I lay there staring at the ceiling
08:57I threw off my jacket
08:59Stripped down to my tank top
09:00And padded out to the kitchen for ice water
09:02Jasper's voice comes from behind
09:03I jumped
09:04My foot slipped on something soft
09:06His towel
09:06And I stumbled back
09:07Bare skin against bare skin
09:08His chest was right behind me
09:10Warm
09:10Solid
09:11Damp
09:12My face went scar-red
09:13He caught me gently
09:14Retied his towel
09:15And rested a calming hand on my shoulder
09:17And that's when my wrist lit up
09:18The golden bond between me and Jasper
09:20Shimmered softly into view
09:21The air changed
09:23A soft smile on his face
09:24He said something had gotten in my eye
09:25Lifting my wrist
09:26And bringing his face close to mine
09:28The living room door slammed open
09:30Griffin walked in
09:32Saw us
09:33Froze mid-step
09:34The playful smirk dropped off his face
09:37Why do you always run the second you see me, sweetheart?
09:39Playing hard to get?
09:50Deep in the night
09:51I lay there staring at the ceiling
09:53Alex's kiss
09:55Jasper's warmth
09:56Griffin's hand on my skin
09:57My whole body was wired
09:59My heart would not slow down
10:01I reached for the vibrator in my drawer
10:03A soft moan slipped out of me
10:05And then I froze
10:07All three of them were on my bed
10:09Alex, Jasper, Griffin
10:11Watching me
10:13Looks like someone needs it too
10:18But
10:19I can't take all three of you at once
10:28And my body
10:29Traitor that it was
10:31Screamed yes
10:36I was on fire
10:37Their scents filled every inch of the room
10:39Until I couldn't tell one from another
10:42Jasper
10:42Gentle
10:43Gentle Jasper
10:44Was the first to move
10:45His lips traced up the inside of my thigh
10:47Cool and precise
10:48Every kiss sent a fresh shiver through me
10:51Griffin wasn't gentle at all
10:52His mouth went straight to my chest
10:54Teeth, tongue
10:55Hot breath fanning across my skin
10:56He wanted me trapped in his heat
10:58And Alex leaned over me
10:59And swallowed every sound I tried to make
11:01His kiss was punishment
11:02Ownership
11:03Mine
11:04His mouth told me
11:05Mine, mine, mine
11:08Three different heats
11:11Three different kinds of hunger
11:12I stopped fighting
11:14My eyes went glassy
11:16My body gave up all its weight to them
11:19The three golden bonds flared on my wrist
11:21Braided together now
11:23White hot
11:23Binding the four of us like fate itself
11:26Had reached down and tied the knot
11:27I bolted up right in bed
11:29Soaped in cold sweat
11:31Alone
11:32The golden bonds on my wrist
11:34Still pulsed softly
11:35With echoes of what wasn't real
11:38Heat curled low in my belly
11:40Unease right next to it
11:42I needed a shower
11:43I needed to wash them off me
11:45I needed to think
11:47The second I stepped in the bathroom
11:49A cough tore through me
11:50I tasted copper
11:51Blood hit the white porcelain sink
11:53Bright
11:54Shockling
11:54Wrong
11:55And then a voice
11:56Soft, powerful, full of light
11:58Spoke behind me
11:59I looked up into the mirror
12:00A woman in white stood behind me
12:02Glowing faintly
12:03Her face full of quiet sorrow
12:04The moon goddess
12:05My child
12:06You must sever two of the bonds
12:08And complete the mating
12:09With your true fated mate
12:11Otherwise
12:11You will die
12:15Damn
12:16Which one am I supposed to pick?
12:18Alex?
12:19You want me that bad?
12:20I went rigid
12:21Blood hammered up into my face
12:23Slowly, slowly
12:24I turned around
12:25Alex
12:26Fresh out of the shower
12:28Bare chest
12:29Water tracking down
12:30Every ridge of muscle
12:31Black boxer briefs
12:32Nothing else
12:33The scent of alpha
12:34Poured off him in waves
12:35He walked toward me
12:37One step
12:37Another
12:38Caged me against the wall
12:40I could feel his breath
12:41On my mouth
12:42I squeezed my eyes shut
12:43And he laughed
12:44A short, remarking breath
12:45The humiliation
12:46Hit like a fist
12:47Without thinking
12:48I snapped at him
12:49Every cruel thing
12:50I could think of
12:50His head dropped
12:51And for half a second
12:52I saw something in his eyes
12:53I wasn't expecting
12:54Pain
12:55Raw and real
12:56He warned me to stay away from him
13:01The training hall stank of sweat
13:02And testosterone
13:03Wolves everywhere
13:04Sparring
13:05Shouting
13:06Showing off
13:06And then the instructor called my name
13:08Paired with Alex
13:09Every head in the room turned to stare
13:12Curious
13:12Mocking
13:13I balled my hands into fists
13:15Ignored all of them
13:16And walked straight up
13:17To the coldest man in the room
13:19I knew he'd turn me down
13:20But I never expected him
13:22To grab my wrist harshly
13:23Slam me hard onto the mat
13:25Then walk away
13:26Without a single shred of mercy
13:28I lay there on the mat
13:29My chest full of a bitter, ugly ache
13:31This was my fated mate?
13:33This man?
13:33A shadow fell over me
13:35Warm, gentle
13:36I looked up into Jasper's soft eyes
13:38His hand was outstretched
13:39He saw the way my ankle
13:41Was already starting to swell
13:42Something passed across his face
13:44Worried he couldn't quite hide
13:45Before I could speak
13:47He bent down
13:48Slid one arm under my knees
13:49The other behind my back
13:50And lifted me clean off the floor
13:52I noticed the girl
13:53Who's always hanging around Jasper
13:55Glaring at me with pure malice
13:56As Jasper carried me
13:58Toward the infirmary
13:58Something made me glance at
14:00Alex was in the far corner
14:02Half hidden in shadow
14:03His eyes were blood red
14:05He was looking at me
14:06Like he wanted to tear me apart
14:07Wanted to take a bite and keep it
14:09I shrunk against Jasper's chest
14:11But even through the crowd
14:12I could feel Alex's gaze
14:14Cold and unblinking
14:15Still pinned on me
14:16What a strange, terrifying man
14:18I had to stay away from him
14:20Jasper set me down carefully on the bed
14:22Knelt on one knee
14:23And started cleaning the swelling
14:26Eighteen years of life
14:27And this was the first time
14:29Anyone had ever been that gentle with me
14:31His breathing got heavier
14:32His eyes lingered on my ankle
14:34Longer than they should have
14:35Then, just lightly
14:37He squeezed
14:38A tingling heat spread through my whole body
14:44Shit
14:44I can actually feel you
14:47Don't be scared
14:50That girl who's always watching you
14:54Are you two together?
14:56Thea?
14:56No
14:57My wolf only wants one thing
15:00My fated mate
15:02A reckless, dangerous thought
15:04Blossomed in my chest
15:05What if Jasper is my fated mate?
15:09I drifted out of the infirmary in a fog
15:11Jasper's words kept cycling in my head
15:13My wolf only wants my fated mate
15:15An engine roared behind me
15:17I turned
15:18A black sports car was barreling straight at me
15:21I couldn't move in time
15:23The bumper clipped me and I went down hard
15:25Textbooks scattering across the pavement
15:27Thea climbed out of the car with two of her pack friends
15:30She didn't waste time
15:31A bucket of ice water hit me square in the face
15:33The cold tore through my skin
15:35The whistles and laughter from the crowd cut deeper than the cold
15:39I scrambled up and ran
15:41Didn't look where I was going
15:42Just ran
15:43I slammed through a door and stumbled inside
15:45I was three steps in before I registered the urinals against the wall
15:49Men's locker room
15:50I turned my back to the door
15:52Shaking, peeled off my soaked shirt
15:54And stood there in just my bra
15:56Trying to stop shivering
15:57A low whistle behind me
15:59I whirled around
16:00Griffin was leaning against the doorway
16:02Arms crossed
16:03Cocky grin
16:04Eyes all over me
16:05Get out you pervert!
16:08Pervert?
16:09Princess
16:09This is the men's locker room
16:12Who's the pervert here?
16:17Go back to the dorm
16:19Change
16:20Now
16:29In the hallway
16:31I buttoned Alex's shirt over my wet clothes
16:33It was enormous
16:34The sleeves swallowed my hands
16:36It smelled like him
16:37Cold, clean, like mountain air
16:39A poster on the wall caught my eye
16:41Couples, spinning, laughing, dressed in silk
16:44My chest twisted
16:45Someone like me
16:46Rejected
16:47Humiliated
16:48An omega nobody wanted
16:49How could I ever belong on a dance floor like that?
16:52Two girls walked past
16:54Whispering loudly enough for me to catch every word
16:56Each word hit like a punch
16:57My eyes stung
16:58I ducked my head
17:00Pulled Alex's shirt tighter around me
17:01And ran
17:01Away from the poster
17:03Away from their voices
17:04Away from everyone
17:05A stray dog
17:06That's what I was
17:07With nowhere to go
17:12When I got back to the dorm
17:13Jasper was waiting in the living room
17:15A bouquet in his hand
17:16A tailored suit
17:18A smile like crushed spring light
17:20He held the flowers out to me
17:21I took them with both hands
17:23The scent rose up and made my breath catch
17:25My heart was doing something stupid
17:27It would be my honor if you'd be my partner at the dance next Friday
17:33I've loved you for a very long time, Freya
17:36Since we were children
17:38So
17:39Will you be my partner?
17:46Don't be in such a rush, princess
17:48You've got more than one mate, remember?
18:01What are you doing here?
18:02You're in my way
18:03He turned around and went back up the stairs
18:06Closed his door
18:07Like he didn't care at all
18:08Griffin shoved his invitation into my hand and grabbed my arm
18:12Jasper stepped between us immediately
18:13Shielding me from him
18:14I took a long breath and looked at both of them
18:17But I already knew
18:18Only one of them had ever been gentle with me
18:21Only one of them had ever saved me without asking for anything
18:24Only one of them had given me an actual memory of being loved
18:27I hold out Griffin's invitation and hand it back
18:30Then accept Jasper's offer instead
18:32Griffin growls in pure fury and storms out, slamming the door
18:35I stood in the empty living room
18:37My chest ached in a slow, dull way
18:40Was it the bonds?
18:41Or did I actually feel something for the others too?
18:43The thought took hold like a weed
18:45The invitation Alex had in his hand that he never gave me
18:48The way Griffin had stormed out
18:50Guilt pressed down on me from both sides
18:52But then I looked at Jasper's clear, open face
18:54And I reminded myself
18:56Freya, you swore you'd never pick another Chiron
18:58Jasper is the opposite of Chiron
19:00This is the right choice
19:01Right?
19:04The night of the dance
19:06I stood in front of the mirror a long time
19:08My best gown
19:09A little makeup
19:10A deep breath
19:12Then into the glittering ballroom
19:14I scanned the crowd until I found him
19:16Tall, broad-shouldered
19:18That gentle energy
19:20It had to be him
19:21I gathered every ounce of courage in my body
19:24Walked over
19:25And tapped his shoulder
19:28Then I ducked my head
19:29Cheeks burning
19:30And said it before I could chicken out
19:32I waited
19:33Head down
19:34Heart going a hundred miles an hour
19:35A familiar, shocked voice spoke
19:37From behind me
19:39I whipped around
19:40Jasper was standing there
19:41Behind me
19:43Then
19:43Who had I just confessed to?
19:45Slowly
19:46Slowly
19:46I turned back
19:48Alex
19:49Not Jasper
19:50Alex
19:52He let out a low, dark chuckle
19:54And stepped closer
19:55His eyes pinned me in place
19:56I wanted the floor to open and swallow me
19:59My face was on fire
20:00Alex grabs a glass of champagne
20:03Nods briefly at Jasper
20:05Then turns and leaves
20:08Jasper hurried over
20:09And his hand came up to smooth my hair
20:12That one small gesture cut through the humiliation
20:15Tonight I told myself
20:17Tonight I would find out for sure
20:20I took his hand and squeezed it
20:22Hard
20:23I leaned up on my toes
20:25Closed my eyes
20:27Tilted my face up
20:28Waited for the kiss
20:31And right as his lips brushed mine
20:33A frantic call rings out right behind him
20:36He pulled back
20:38Torn
20:40Apologetic
20:41Whispered he'd be right back
20:43And was gone
20:44But the next second
20:46Thea swarms over with her crew
20:48Warning me to stay away from Jasper
20:50I didn't get two seconds to recover
20:52Before Thea and her pack descended on me
20:54Some half-hearted threat about staying away from Jasper
20:57I'd had enough of her games
20:59I turned to walk away
21:01That was when she lost it
21:03Her two friends grabbed my arms
21:05She pulled a lit cigarette from behind her back
21:08And brought it slowly towards my face
21:10I flinched back
21:12The cherry of the cigarette was a centimeter from my eye
21:15A silver cuff click whipped past my ear
21:18Slammed into the cigarette
21:19And went straight on to graze Thea's cheek
21:24I spun around
21:25Alex was standing in the far corner of the ballroom
21:29He clapped his hands once
21:31Lazily
21:32Like he was applauding his own throw
21:34And walked away without a backward glance
21:38Thea was shrieking
21:40Looking for whoever had thrown it
21:41She couldn't find him
21:43So she took her rage out on me
21:46She lunged
21:47I stepped out of the way
21:48She kept going
21:50Straight into a three-tiered cake
21:51Face first
21:52The ballroom exploded in laughter
22:06Freya is my mate
22:07No one touches her
22:11Thea covered her face and fled the ballroom
22:13Frosting still dripping off her hair
22:14I let out a shaky breath
22:16Looked up at Jasper
22:17Full of gratitude
22:18The music swelled
22:19I put my hand in his
22:20And we moved
22:21I could have stayed in that spin forever
22:23It was warm
22:23It was safe
22:24It was everything I'd wanted my whole life
22:26Then mid-turn
22:27Another hand caught my wrist
22:28And pulled me off balance
22:29It fell into a different chest
22:31Hotter
22:32More aggressive
22:33Griffin
22:33He locked an arm around my waist
22:35His smile was sharp
22:37A little wounded
22:38It twisted in his head
22:39It twisted in his grip
22:39It twisted in his grip
22:39Furious
22:39Tried to stomp on his foot
22:41He dodged with a grin
22:42And pulled me closer
22:43His mouth grew near mine
22:44He was going to kiss me
22:45Right there
22:46Right there in front of everyone
22:47I shoved him off and stumbled backward
22:49My heel slipped on the polished floor
22:51Strong arms caught me before I hit the ground
22:53A cold, clean scent
22:54I knew it before I looked it up
22:56Alex
23:00Looking down at me with the strangest expression
23:03Something complicated
23:04Something almost amused
23:06The blood in my face
23:07I tried to pull away
23:08He pulled me back into his chest
23:10And held me there
23:11His eyes locking with mine
23:12I put my hands against his chest
23:14Push
23:14I was going to push
23:16But I didn't
23:16He caught one of my hands
23:19Brought my fingertips to his mouth
23:21Pressed a slow kiss to it
23:23Then ran his tongue across it
23:25Just once
23:27This was Alex?
23:28This was Alex doing this?
23:30My brain went white
23:32I closed my eyes
23:33I leaned in
23:35He turned his head away and smiled
23:37Shame decadated in my chest
23:39I shoved him off
23:41And ran out of the ballroom
23:42Cursing him the whole way
23:43Bastard
23:44Fucking bastard
23:46I stormed down the corridor
23:47With my head full of fire
23:48And walked straight into a solid body
23:50I looked up
23:52And my blood turned to ice
23:55Kyron
23:56Well, well
23:57The little Omega I kicked out of my pack
24:01Nice dress
24:02Who are you trying to seduce tonight?
24:06Kyron stepped toward me
24:07Closer
24:08Closer
24:09His alpha pressure
24:10Made my whole body shake
24:12My back hit the cold wall
24:13Nowhere left to go
24:14Rage and terror exploded in me at the same time
24:17I shoved him with everything I had
24:19He threw me to the ground like I weighed nothing
24:21My forehead cracked against a stone pillar
24:24Blood ran down into my eyebrow
24:26He loomed over me
24:28Reached down
24:29Ripped the slit of my ground wide open
24:31Before his hand could touch my skin
24:33Blue light flared in my eyes
24:35Blue light flared in my eyes
24:36Something took over my body
24:37My fist moved without me
24:40It slammed into his face hard enough to break bone
24:42All the strength drained out of me in an instant
24:45Black spots
24:46And then nothing
24:47When I woke up
24:48When I woke up I was in my room
24:49The air smelled like antiseptic
24:52Alex was sitting on the edge of the bed with a cotton ball
24:54Carefully dabbing at the cut on my forehead
24:56His touch was unbelievably gentle
25:00Nothing like the man who had pushed me off on the training mat
25:02I ask softly if he's the one who saved me
25:05He immediately snaps back with sharp harsh words to lecture me
25:08I shoved him and turned my face to the wall
25:10The air went dangerous
25:11I could feel the pressure drop in the room
25:14But he didn't come after me
25:15He just sat back down
25:16His eyes dropped to my leg
25:18And then his hand closed around my ankle
25:20The heat of his fingertips made me jump
25:22The whole room went quiet
25:23Just our breathing
25:24His thumb moved slowly across my skin
25:26So gentle it was almost worse
25:28My hands fisted in the sheets
25:30He brought out a tube of salive
25:32Lifted my leg with both hands
25:34And applied it around the bruise
25:35Careful not to press down
25:36He was barely breathing
25:38This place is dangerous Freya
25:40Every year wolves die here
25:42Omgas disappear
25:45I don't want it to happen to you
25:46So you came here for me?
25:48Nalpha's saliva heals faster than medicine
25:50Close your eyes
25:51I closed them
25:52His hands lifted my calf
25:55His lips pressed gently against the cut
25:57His tongue traced the sore, swollen skin around it
26:01And a shock of heat ran all the way up my body
26:04I stopped breathing
26:21You're not actually that bad, you know?
26:26I stared into his eyes
26:28Something swirled in them I couldn't name
26:30My throat closed
26:32I couldn't speak
26:33He leaned in
26:34His breath fared across my lips
26:36We were close enough to feel each other trembling
26:39The air between us was going to burn
26:41Bang!
26:42The door flew open
26:44Griffin
26:45Two ice cream cones in his hands
26:47A big stupid grin on his face
26:49The grin froze the second he saw us
26:52I panicked
26:53Shoved Alex away
26:54Snatched the salve tube out of his hand
26:56I bolted into the bathroom and slammed the door
26:59Leaned back against it
27:00My heart was trying to punch through my chest
27:03Inside, I sat down on the tile
27:05Shaking
27:06And tried to put Sam on my own leg
27:09My mind kept replaying it
27:11His mouth
27:12His eyes
27:13The tremor in his fingers
27:15The fact that I wanted him to keep going
27:17I decided on Jasper
27:19I was going to sever the other two bonds
27:21So why had my body lit up at Alex's touch?
27:24Why was I suddenly doubting everything?
27:26Was I...
27:27Falling for him?
27:29No
27:29Absolutely not
27:30I knew what Kieran had looked like before he destroyed me
27:34Cold
27:34Distant
27:35Impossible to reach
27:37Alex was the same type
27:38My type
27:39The type I was going to die reaching for
27:41No
27:42I wanted a real relationship this time
27:44Respect
27:45Honesty
27:46Not being played with until I broke
27:48Another cough racked my chest
27:50Copper in my mouth
27:51Blood in the sink
27:52I looked up at the mirror
27:53Pale
27:54Bloody lip
27:55Hollow eyes
27:57I couldn't let Alex confuse me anymore
27:59I had to complete the bond with Jasper
28:02Soon
28:03Before I died
28:07In the training hall
28:09I kept glancing toward the door
28:10Waiting for Jasper to come back so I could tell him what I'd decided
28:15Thea appeared in front of me instead
28:17Holding a training ball
28:18Her eyes narrow
28:21She threw it at me
28:23I took it on the shoulder
28:25She threw another
28:27I took it on the ribs
28:29On the third one
28:30Something in me snapped
28:33I grabbed the ball and hurled it back
28:35It hit her in the forehead and put her flat on her back
28:37Blood bloomed from her hairline
28:39The whole hall went dead silent
28:40Every teacher, every student staring at me
28:43The instructor told Jasper to take Thea to the infirmary
28:45Then he told me to stay after class and clean the entire training hall
28:48My punishment
28:49And Freya
28:49You can stay behind and clean this entire jam
28:53I swallowed the injustice the way I'd swallowed every other injustice
28:58Nobody cared about One Omega's side of the story
29:02After class, it was just me in the echoing empty hall
29:05Dragging a mope across the floor
29:07Cold condensation pressed against my cheek
29:09I looked up
29:11Alex
29:14He says he'll train me personally and teach me how to control my inner power
29:18I stare at him, half believe and half doubtful
29:22We squared off with wooden stahls
29:26Old school, bare bones combat
29:29He was an alpha and a top one
29:31His speed and strength were a different species from mine
29:34I could only fall back, block, stumble
29:38Keep breathing
29:41But I didn't notice it at first
29:43Last time we'd trained, I couldn't block a single one of his strikes
29:48Tonight, I was holding my own for rounds at a time
29:50Watching Alex's figure walking toward me from afar
29:53I realized for the first time that he might not be as brutal and bloodthirsty as everyone claims
29:58He hands me a bottle of water thoughtfully
30:01And asks why I keep putting up with unfair treatment when I possess such great power
30:05Truth is, I never even knew I had that much strength inside me
30:09I tightened my grip on the water bottle
30:12And for the first time, I told somebody
30:15No father, no mother
30:19From the moment I had memory, I was just the adopted girl in the Ashwood house
30:24The Ashwoods were old Ridgepack nobility
30:27They didn't mistreat me
30:29They just didn't see me
30:32I existed to make Mia look better
30:34Even when the moon goddess picked Kieran for me
30:36Even when I had a mate, nothing changed
30:39Mia only got worse
30:42And then I got discarded
30:43And ended up here
30:46Alex listened
30:47The whole time
30:48Not once did his face flicker with pity or contempt
30:52Just a quiet, aching softness
30:54He wasn't used to comforting anyone
30:56His ears went pink
30:57When I looked at him with tears in my eyes
30:59He looked away, flustered
31:03I couldn't help it
31:04I started laughing
31:06Time for the next train, he came at me
31:10I took a breath and swung at him hard
31:12He slipped to the side
31:14I overcommitted
31:15I was going to fall
31:17He spun and caught me
31:19His arm around my waist
31:20His chest against my back
31:22His breath at my neck
31:23Our heart beats in the same too-fast rhythm
31:26Out of the corner of my eye, a flash of color
31:28Griffin had come in with a broom
31:30He'd stopped dead
31:32His face twisted
31:33He threw the broom down so hard it bounced
31:37Turned around
31:38And stormed out of the hall
31:39That night, I bought a milkshake
31:42His favorite flavor
31:43And stood outside Alex's door
31:45Working up the courage to knock
31:50Asper
31:51Do you have Mia's number?
31:53Freya's sister
31:53I want to take her out for coffee
31:55The milkshake almost slipped out of my hand
31:58All of it
31:58The training
32:00The listening
32:01The gentleness
32:02All of it was a lie
32:03He'd been getting close to me
32:05So he could get to my sister
32:06I bit down on my lip
32:08And forced the tears back
32:09Threw the milkshake
32:11In the nearest trash cans
32:13I was there
32:14Maybe two minutes
32:15Before there was a knock
32:16I yanked the door open
32:19Griffin was leaning against the frame
32:22Hands in his pockets
32:23That cocky grin
32:25That always drove me insane
32:27I shoved him
32:28But he was built like a wall
32:29And I couldn't move him an inch
32:31The tears finally spilled over
32:33And I couldn't stop them
32:35Don't hate
32:36Don't do that
32:37Come on
32:39Tell me what you want
32:40And I'll get it for you
32:41Anything
32:42I want someone honest
32:43Someone who respects me
32:45Someone who won't lie to me
32:47Not someone who says
32:49Pretty things he doesn't mean
33:10Is this obvious enough?
33:11I'm flirting with you Freya
33:14I want to be your mate
33:16For real
33:22Bang!
33:23The door flew open
33:24Cold air rushed in
33:26I panicked
33:28Shoved Griffin back
33:29And fumbled to straighten my clothes
33:30I looked up
33:31Alec
33:32His face was like carved stone
33:34His eyes were burning
33:36Everything I'd been holding back all night
33:38The hurt
33:39The betrayal
33:39The mortication
33:40Came out as a sneer
33:41What are you even doing here?
33:42Aren't you supposed to be on your date with my sister?
33:44His eyes swept over Griffin's bare chest
33:47The wolf inside him rumbered
33:48A sound I could feel in my ribs
33:50Griffin had it by the collar
33:52Alec wrenched Griffin's hand off
33:53And walked out into the living room
33:55Straight into Jasper
33:56Jasper smiled at him
33:57And held out an invitation
33:58Alec exploded
33:59The door slammed hard enough
34:01To rattle the frames on the walls
34:02Jasper stood there blinking
34:03Me and Griffin stared at the floor
34:05Jasper's birthday party was bright and loud
34:07Full of laughing wolves and formal clothes
34:09I found a corner and started drinking
34:10Alec's betrayal
34:12Griffin's confession
34:14Jasper's steady kindness
34:15The moon goddess's warning
34:17All of it tangled together in my head
34:20Like a net pulling tight
34:21The more I drank
34:22The fuzzier things got
34:23Griffin rushed over
34:24And tried to take my glass
34:25I slapped his hand away
34:27A harsh cough tore through me
34:29I tasted copper
34:30Blood dripped onto my dress
34:31Bright red against the pale silk
34:33I pushed through the crowd
34:35And locked myself in the bathroom
34:36Leaned on the sink
34:38The woman in the mirror was pale
34:40I know I can't hold on any longer
34:41I have to pick one to bond with tonight
34:43Or I'm really gonna die
34:45Pounding on the door
34:47Griffin's worried voice
34:48I shouted back at him to leave me alone
34:50I stared at myself in the mirror
34:52The decision clicked into place
34:53I wasn't going to die
34:54Not like this
34:55I straightened my dress
34:56Pulled that thing out of my clutch
34:57And gripped it hard enough
34:58Than was outside this door
34:59That was who I was choosing
35:00And it was final
35:03I pulled the bathroom door open
35:04Alex
35:05He was carrying the cold in with him
35:06His face was dark
35:07His eyes were scorching
35:08I stepped back without meaning to
35:10The thing slipped out of my hand
35:11And hit the floor between us
35:12He saw it
35:13He walked me backward
35:14Until I was pinned
35:15Between the vanity and his body
35:18Lifted me onto the counter
35:19Like I weighed nothing
35:22His thumb brushed the corner of my mouth
35:24He forced my face up to his
35:25His voice was low
35:26And thick with rage
35:27Barely held back
35:28Then he kissed me
35:28It was a punishing kiss
35:30Teeth and tongue
35:30And discipline and desperation
35:32All at once
35:32He left a mark on my neck
35:33His arms caged me against the mirror
35:35Through the door
35:36Jasper called my name
35:37A wave of cold water down my spine
35:39And then a wave of something hotter
35:41Right behind it
35:41I hooked my arm around Alex's neck
35:43Pulled him into the nearest dot
35:44And slammed the door
35:45Through the lock
35:46Pressed him against the partition
35:47And kissed him with everything I had
35:49My hand went straight for his belt
35:50The knocking got closer
35:51It stopped right outside the stall
35:53Jasper's voice
35:53Gentle and anxious
35:54Came through the metal
35:55Alex went roged
35:56The heat drained out of his eyes
35:57And was replaced with something worse
35:58Betrayal
35:59He slammed his fist into the stall door
36:01The whole cubicle shook
36:03The knocking outside went silent
36:04A long pause
36:05Then Jasper's quiet awkward apology
36:07Footsteps receding
36:09Are you out of your fucking mind?
36:11Freya would you spread your legs
36:12For anyone with a cock?
36:14Are you that cheap?
36:14Like you're any different
36:15You trained with me
36:17You listened to me
36:18And then you turned around
36:19And called my sister
36:20You're no better than
36:21Every other person
36:22Who's ever looked down on me
36:23And used me
36:24Were you jealous?
36:25Did you actually care?
36:26Why would I be jealous of you?
36:28You're a self-absorbed asshole
36:30You mean nothing to me
36:31Nothing
36:32Absolutely nothing
36:38In class the next morning
36:40The fight kept replaying in my head
36:42Nora's voice kept pushing through
36:43Weaker
36:44The dull ache in my chest
36:45Was a clock ticking down
36:46A folded note slid onto my desk
36:49Jasper's handwriting
36:50Something gentle and careful
36:53My eyes burned
36:54I looked up and found him watching me
36:56His eyes full of quiet worry
36:58Thea saw it
37:00Her face contorted
37:01A paper ball thumbed against my back
37:03I opened it
37:04Seven words
37:05Rooftop
37:06Eight tonight
37:06Come alone
37:09The wind was cold on the rooftop
37:11My skirt snapped around my legs
37:12I gripped the note and walked to the center
37:14My heart full of hope
37:14Jasper was finally going to let me tell him
37:16A sneer cut through the wind
37:17Thea was at the stairway door
37:18Flanked by her two friends
37:19Blocking the only exit
37:20Their faces were pure malice
37:22They closed in on me
37:22Her friends grabbed my arms
37:24And slammed me onto the concrete
37:25The cold of the rooftop
37:26Cut through my dress
37:27I kicked
37:28I twisted
37:29They pinned my shoulder
37:30Thea crouched over me
37:31Caught my chin in her hand
37:32Pulled a small bottle out of her pocket
37:34Dark liquid
37:34Sharp chemical smell
37:36Her friends forced my jaw open
37:37She poured it down my throat
37:38It tasted like rot and acid
37:40Heat tore through my body instantly
37:42My vision warped
37:44My muscles went slack
37:45I couldn't fight anymore
37:47I tried to scream
37:48The wind swallowed it
37:50And just as I was about to go under
37:51The rooftop door exploded inward
37:53Alex
37:53His eyes blood red
37:54A killing aura coming off him in waves
37:56He didn't say a word
37:57He knocked Thea and her friends flat
37:59Grabbed him like he was the last solid thing in the world
38:01I threw myself at him
38:02Babbling
38:03Begging
38:03He stiffened
38:04I could see him trying to be responsible
38:06Trying to push me off so he could find the antidote
38:08But my flushed face
38:10My desperate eyes
38:11My tears
38:12The wall inside him cracked
38:14He whispered against my ear
38:15Ragged and rough
38:16The heat in my body and the panic of my chest
38:17Run tight around each other
38:18He kept holding me
38:19Kissing me
38:19Kissing me
38:20Revive mad me
38:21He was heightened to darkness
38:21Safe
38:22When I woke up I was in my own bed
38:23His coat was draped over me
38:25I could smell him on it
38:25That cool mountain scent
38:26Cut through with a thin thread of blood
38:28A knock
38:28Jasper
38:28He came in with a glass of warm water
38:30His eyes full of water
38:30The door suddenly bursts open
38:32Griffin storms in
38:32Clearly furious
38:33And urgently asks where Alex is
38:34Saying he's gone missing
38:35What Alex had brought me back
38:36It's the full moon
38:37What?
38:38Alex could lose control at any time
38:39If we don't find him
38:40Enzo his wolf will swallow him whole
38:42He'll die
38:42We have to find him before sunrise
38:44So Alex has been fighting the wolf this whole time?
38:46That was why he kept shoving me away?
38:56In the dream
38:57I was in a wasted forest
39:00Moonlight
39:00Alex slumped against a tree
39:02Shirt soaked with blood
39:04Cuts everywhere
39:05I grabbed his hand and sobbed that I wasn't angry anymore
39:09That every misunderstanding was gone
39:11Pain ripped through my head and I snapped awake
39:14Cold sweat on my forehead
39:16The full moon still hung outside the window
39:19One thought in my whole body
39:21Find him
39:25I threw on a coat and ran
39:26Straight for the forbidden forest
39:28I knew where he was
39:29He was in the most dangerous place there was
39:30And the place he needed me most
39:32The night was like ink
39:33The branches twisted overhead like claws
39:35The wind howled through dead leaves
39:36Cutting at my face
39:37I stumbled forward
39:38My dress tore on every other branch
39:39My bare feet bled on the rocks
39:41None of it mattered
39:42Under an old tree I found him
39:43Collapsed
39:44Soaked in blood
39:45New wounds still bleeding
39:46Mud and dead leaves clung to him
39:48His breathing was so shallow
39:49I could barely see it
39:50Alex!
39:53Alex stay with me
40:04I wasn't contentacting Mia for a date
40:06I believe you
40:08There's someone inside the academy
40:10They're working with the hunters
40:12They want me dead
40:13Protecting you
40:13The man he tied up at the start of term
40:15It had to be
40:16They'd been after Alex from the beginning
40:17I'm sorry
40:18I'm so sorry for every time I misunderstood you
40:20From now on I'm gonna be the one protecting you
40:23The kitchen was warm and full of steam in the morning light
40:25Milk bubbling on the stove
40:27Eggs crisping gold at the edges
40:29A bowl of healing broth I'd spent an hour on
40:32Waiting to bring him
40:33I adjusted the flame for the fifth time
40:35All I could think about was him
40:37The whole night I'd dreamed of him
40:39The way he'd leaned against me
40:41That fragile, unberservable vulnerability
40:44How every breath had pained him
40:46I just wanted him to wake up to something warm
40:49Something to make him heal faster
40:51Every guilt
40:52Every missed chance
40:54Every ounce of doubt
40:56Of fint I'd carried
40:57I was going to pack it into this one meal
41:00And give it to him
41:01A gentle voice came from the doorway
41:03Jasper
41:04In loose clothes
41:05Hair still damp
41:06I saw him reaching for the tray
41:08And stopped him at once
41:09Telling him it was special nutritious meal
41:11Prepared for Alex
41:12But he told me Alex had already left
41:15The spoon fell out of my hand
41:16And hit the plate with a sharp ring
41:19Where was he?
41:20Who was going to take care of him?
41:22What if someone found him again?
41:24I got two steps before Jasper was in front of me
41:27His body warm against the cold wall behind me
41:30His breath on my forehead
41:31He was close enough to kiss
41:33If I tilted up one inch I could
41:35I'm not gonna let you go
41:37Come back to my territory with me
41:40If you choose me
41:41I'll announce you as my Luna
41:43In front of my whole pack
41:45I'll protect you for the rest of my life
41:48No more misunderstandings
41:50No more hurt
41:51I looked into his sunlit face
41:53At the warmth in his eyes
41:54At the sincerity of everything he was
41:56And my mind kept dragging up another face
41:58Another man
41:59A Alex
42:00Alex against my chest in the forest
42:02Vulnerable and bleeding
42:04Alex biting back his wolf so he wouldn't hurt me
42:06Alex
42:07Broken
42:08Aking
42:09Terrified
42:09Still somehow trying to keep me safe
42:12It hit me in waves
42:13Every moment of him
42:15It drowned out the gentle warmth standing right in front of me
42:18Wait
42:22The silence cracked everything
42:24Jasper froze
42:26The hope in his eyes faded slowly
42:28Replaced by something softer
42:29Understanding
42:31He stepped back
42:32He ran his hand over my hair once
42:34Gently
42:35And smiled
42:35No blame
42:36Only release
42:38He helped me get to Alex's packed territory
42:40At the border
42:41He solemnly severed our bond
42:43The pain was shattering
42:45Like something tearing out of my corpse
42:48I looked up into Jasper's tired, quiet eyes
42:51The guilt was a knife
42:53But I had no other choice
42:54The car drove away
42:56The bond backlash slammed into
42:58I doubled over and coughed up blood onto the gravel
43:01I used the last of my strength to stagger into Alex's wing of the estate
43:05He was sitting on the edge of the bed drinking coffee
43:07Sunlight on his face
43:08He looked up
43:10Saw me
43:10Bloody
43:11Dirty
43:12Barely standing
43:13And his face went white
43:14I didn't hesitate it
43:16I launched across the wing of a man
43:19I shoved him down onto the bed and straddled him
43:22My hands pinned his shoulders
43:24My knuckles white
43:26My whole body shaking from the backlash and the hunger
43:32This cold, cool-looking man was what I wanted
43:35I fumbled with the buttons on his shirt
43:38The more I hurried
43:39The clumsier I got
43:40All I could feel
43:42Horror was him getting harder against me
43:44And burning through two layers of fabric
43:46The howls of both our wolves
43:48The ones we've been suppressing for so long
43:50Are you sure?
43:54I'm not worthy of any works
43:57Clean
43:58Twisted around each other
44:00The fated Mekron locked into place
44:02Wrapping around our bones
44:04Deep and unbreakable
44:05It drove out every shadow
44:07Every thing
44:08Every old wound
44:10This is happiness
44:12Oh, I believe
44:15I woke up the next morning and in his bed
44:19Sunlight everywhere
44:22I kissed his cheek while he slept
44:24And padded into the bathroom
44:32Thank you, Moon Goddess
44:34I'm so relieved
44:35The bond was completed in time
44:36And I finally survived
44:43I grabbed his arm and tried to explain
44:45He pulled away from me
44:46Hard
44:47His wolf was coming back up
44:48I could see the panic and the shame on his face
44:51As plain as I saw my own guilt
44:52And I could see him making a decision
44:54He turned and walked out
44:56Without one look back
44:59I watched him go
45:00Every step he took crushed something inside me
45:02Dull pain
45:03Silent tears
45:04I knew this was a misunderstanding
45:06I knew he was leaving because he was afraid of what his wolf would do to me
45:09I went to his office
45:10He had his back to me the whole time
45:12A wall of cold shoulder that wouldn't turn around
45:15The beta told me helplessly that Alex was only afraid of hurting me
45:19Not intentionally pushing me away
45:21I knew
45:22I'd known the whole time
45:25But what was I supposed to do as his mate
45:28If he wouldn't even look at me
45:32His coldness is scaring me
45:35Maybe I should just give up
45:39No
45:40I'm never giving up
45:41I love him
45:42That's enough
45:43I walked to his office door and raised my fist
45:46Every knock was the sound of me burning my last bridge
45:49No answer
45:50I shoved the door open
45:52The room was empty
45:53Only the beta
45:55Standing by the desk
45:58His face was cold
46:00His voice was colder
46:01He told me Alex was gone
46:03And even if he weren't
46:04He would refuse to see me
46:06He said we were never meant to be
46:08And we ought to stop torturing each other
46:10Every ounce of strength drained out of me
46:12I tasted copper from where I'd bitten my lip
46:15I turned and walked out with my back straight
46:17Tears blurring my vision
46:19Every step heavy
46:20But the thought in my head was getting clearer
46:22I'm not leaving Alex
46:25No matter how you hide
46:26No matter how hard you push
46:28I'm never giving up on you
46:34The room was dark
46:35Only moonlight
46:37I was on the floor again
46:39My back against the wall
46:40A half-finished glass of something next to me
46:46I dreamed
46:46I was back in the forest
46:48Darkness so thick I couldn't see my own hand
46:50Wind cutting through me
46:52Despair pressing in on all sides
46:54Alex was on the ground
46:56Pale, bloody
46:58His breath almost gone
46:59I ran
47:02Dropped to my knees
47:03Reached for him
47:04His eyes have stoked him
47:06The gentleness was gone
47:07What looked back at me was pure, hungry violence
47:10His pupils blazed red
47:12A roar tore out of his throat
47:14Echoing through the trees
47:16You're just using me
47:18No
47:19I truly love you
47:25Tears running down my face
47:27I screamed it at him over and over
47:30The red in his eyes divined
47:32His hand closed around my throat
47:34I couldn't breathe
47:35Death crept in at the edges of my vision
47:41And then, just as I was about to lose everything
47:44The red in his eyes divined
47:46His hand flew off my neck
47:48A single tear dropped onto my face
47:50I stared up at him
47:52The violent version of him
47:53The one that had almost killed me
47:55He was crying
47:56I jolt awake
47:58Tears still wet on my face
48:00My chest heaving
48:01Cold sweat soaking my hair
48:04And just as the cold and the hopelessness were about to swallow me whole
48:08Fuleia
48:08A soft, holy voice spoke into my ear
48:11The chill vanished
48:12In the moonlight, the moon goddess appeared
48:15Her face full of sorrow and love
48:17I wiped my face and stumbled toward her
48:19My voice shaking
48:20I had to know
48:21How did I save him?
48:23I couldn't stand watching him be torn apart from the inside
48:25While I could do nothing
48:37Peace, child
48:42I've come to tell you this
48:45You are the answer
48:49Freda
48:52You are the one who can save him
48:54And yourself
48:59The moon goddess's words hit me like a bolt of lightning
49:03I froze
49:04My whole body shook
49:07My lips trembled so hard I couldn't make a sound
49:11I clenched the necklace at my throat
49:13My father had been a feared and powerful alpha
49:16My mother had been a white witch
49:18Born with pure healing power
49:19Condemned by every pack as a heretic
49:21They had fallen in love across a line that wasn't supposed to be crossed
49:25And they had been slaughtered for it
49:27Murdered on a stone altar
49:28Every unexplained moment fell into place at once
49:31Every strange pull I'd felt towards Alex
49:33Every time his eyes had languered on mine
49:35Every coincidence that hadn't been a coincidence
49:37All the confusion
49:38All the fear
49:39All the self-doubt I'd been carrying
49:40It shattered
49:41I can save him
49:42I really can save him
49:44Before I could fully take it in
49:45The door crashed open
49:48Jasper and Griffin
49:49Pale, frantic
49:50Forbidden forest from my dream
49:52Flashed through my head
49:53I know how to save him
49:55He must be in the forbidden forest
50:04You're the white witch's daughter?
50:06I don't know
50:08Griffin grew gentle and relieved
50:09He raised his hand toward the cold moonlight
50:11His voice was low and solemn
50:13He swore to release me as his mate
50:15From this night on he would guard me only as a friend
50:18For the rest of his life
50:19A soft white light flared
50:21The bond between us broke without pain
50:23No regret
50:24Only release
50:25And deep, deep gratitude
50:29I was almost at the edge of the forbidden forest
50:31When a dark shape dropped out of the shadows behind me
50:36Before I could react
50:37Something slammed into the back of my skull
50:40White hot pain rolled over me like a wave
50:46The dull throb at the back of my head
50:48A sharp cramp in my stomach
50:49I forced my eyes open in the dim light of a warehouse
50:52Kian and Mia
50:54Standing over me
50:55Smiling like snakes
50:56I tried to pull on the power inside me
50:59Nothing
50:59My body wouldn't respond
51:01Nora didn't answer
51:03Panic
51:03Mia stepped forward and slapped me across the face
51:06Then drove her fist into my stomach
51:08Pain flooded everything
51:10Blood in my mouth
51:11I forced myself to glare up at them
51:14Told them Alex would never let them get away with this
51:16Kieran scoffed
51:17Unconvinced
51:18I snarled at him
51:19Called him a traitor
51:20A coward
51:21Mia lost it completely
51:22She slapped me again
51:24And screamed that she was going to destroy me
51:26She turned to the fire pit in the middle of the warehouse
51:29And pulled a glowing red poker out of the coals
51:31The heat rolled off her
51:32She stepped toward me
51:34She was going to burn out my eyes
51:36The heat got closer
51:37I shut my eyes
51:39All I could see was him
51:40All I could think was that I couldn't die like this
51:43I hadn't saved him yet
51:45I hadn't told him the truth
51:46Let her go
51:49How the hell are you here?
51:51You were supposed to be trapped by the hunters
51:53You're just a monster who can't control his wolf
51:56You're going to end up killing the people who love you
52:13That's right
52:14Just like this
52:16Next
52:17You'll strangle the girl you love with your own hands
52:28I leaned back against the wall
52:29I didn't flinch
52:31I didn't step back
52:32I called his name through my tears
52:33His body shook
52:35His right hand was holding a dagger lifting it toward me
52:37His left hand was clamped around his own right wrist
52:40Nails digging into skin
52:41Trying to hold the right hand back
52:43Then he twisted the blade
52:44Turned it away from me
52:45Toward himself
52:47I screamed and threw myself at him
52:49Grabbed the blade in both hands
52:51The edge cut deep into my palms
52:53Blood ran down the steel
52:54I didn't feel it
52:55The power sleeping inside me for 18 years woke up
52:58Warmth flooded every cell in my body
53:00My chestnut hair shimmered and shifted
53:02Down the length of it strand by strand
53:04Turning pure silver white
53:06A soft, powerful white light burst out of me
53:08It filled every corner of the warehouse
53:10Every shadow retreated from it
53:12Every trace of violence dissolved
53:13My palm was still bleeding
53:15But the white light flowing through me grew warmer and warmer
53:17The ancient, born in power of a white witch wrapped around me
53:21Wrapped around me
53:22Strange and familiar all at once
53:24By the legs my guide
53:25By the blood as my bond
53:27I banish the darkness
53:29I restore the true heart
53:31By the moon's power
53:33May the shadow lift
53:34By my blood
53:36May the one I love be saved
53:51Kieran and Mia were screaming for mercy somewhere behind us
53:54I didn't have any attention left for them
53:56I could hear Griffin and Jasper bittering near the door
53:58And even that felt warm
54:00Like surviving
54:01Like coming home
54:02I started to smile
54:04Alex's arm tightened around my waist
54:06He lowered his head and kissed me
54:07Deep, urgent
54:09Full of everything we'd almost lost
54:10Everything we'd finally found
54:12When the kiss ended
54:13He pressed his forehead to mine
54:15The tenderness in his eyes almost undid me
54:17And I understood completely
54:19That we had finally walked out of the dark together
54:21I was like, I'm sorry
54:22I'm sorry
54:22I'm sorry
54:22I'm sorry
54:23I'm sorry
54:23I'm sorry
54:23I'm sorry
54:23I'm sorry
54:23I'm sorry
