Cora devoted herself to three wounded wolves, but they turned against her for her sister Vivian. So she chose Silas, Vivian’s cold-blooded snake, instead. While the wolves betrayed her, Silas protected her through every hardship. When Cora flees her arranged marriage, he follows without hesitation—and proves the cold snake has the warmest heart.

00:34:08she looks so sad
00:34:09not one of them moved toward me
00:34:11between us

00:34:13we both made peace with that long ago
00:34:14then i lifted my chin

00:34:16vivian paused
00:34:18then called toward the hall
00:34:19come inside
00:34:21heavy footsteps crossed the floor
00:34:23a tall man stepped into the light
00:34:25he stood tall
00:34:26his expression cold
00:34:27then his dark eyes locked onto mine
00:34:31i held his cold stare
00:34:32and made myself speak
00:34:34hello
00:34:36he looked down at me without a word
00:34:38his gaze was heavy
00:34:39dark
00:34:40and reptile cold
00:34:41he did not answer me at all
00:34:44goosebumps spread down both my arms

00:34:58the three wolves went quiet and followed her out
00:35:01just like that
00:35:02they were gone
00:35:03the snake stayed behind without a word
00:35:06i reached out to close the door
00:35:09deuce turned and looked back at me
00:35:11his eyes gave nothing away
00:35:13then the man beside me changed
00:35:15his dark pupils narrowed into cold slits
00:35:17a slick tail shot around my waist
00:35:19a strange heavy scent burst through the room
00:35:22it filled my lungs and made me dizzy
00:35:24i shoved at his chest but he didn't move
00:35:26you
00:35:26you're going into rut
00:35:28he tugged at his collar
00:35:29breathing hard
00:35:30so hot
00:35:31he pulled his shirt open at the throat
00:35:33hold on
00:35:33let me get you a suppressor
00:35:35he caught my wrist before i could turn
00:35:36don't go
00:35:37he pressed my palm flat against his bare chest
00:35:39his skin was hot
00:35:40and his heart pounded under it
00:35:41this helps
00:35:42stay like this
00:35:43heat rushed straight to my face
00:35:45then what do you want me to do
00:35:47he pinned me back against the door
00:35:49his tail caught me so it didn't hurt
00:35:53hot breath spilled across the back of my neck
00:35:55i could not break free of his hold
00:35:59then a fist pounded on the door
00:36:00Cora? what's wrong in there?
00:36:13my sister vivian always wants more in bed
00:36:17but her partner is a snake

00:36:23every night they wear me down to nothing
00:36:25but none of them wants me
00:36:27the one they want is vivian

00:36:31my wolves had me all night
00:36:34then i blacked out
00:36:36but i came to before they noticed
00:36:38voices drifted in from the living room

00:37:55none of this had happened
00:37:56it started on a cold rainy night
00:37:59three wolves lay bleeding
00:38:00on the wet concrete
00:38:01i almost walked right past them
00:38:04then one weak tail
00:38:05curled around my ankle
00:38:08i couldn't leave them there
00:38:09so i carried all three of them home
00:38:14they healed fast under my care
00:38:18then their growth phase hit
00:38:21one by one
00:38:22they shifted into men
00:38:33i called the shifter shelter
00:38:35to give them up
00:38:36they've imprinted on you
00:38:38abandoning them now
00:38:39would traumatize them
