Tentered Maximus office without knocking and found him standing in front of his desk. His hands were resting over it as he hunched over, breathing steadily.

Maxi- . .-

“That’s your answer to what I offered you?” He interrupted, his voice stable and calm. “You chose Aiden?

*No.” I whispered, closing the door behind me and resting my back against it

He rolled his shoulders, his muscles rippling under his white cotton shirt. My mouth dried as I shifted my focus to the papers on his desk

It was the same contract I left unsigned,

You wanted to offer me a place here in exchange for being your whore, Maxir. You wouldn’t mark me or give me any position in the werewolf world, but what? You will give me a spot in your company so we can fuck conveniently?” I whispered, my heartbeat skyrocketing in my chest. “I refuse to be that Maximus. I can’t – – -I can’t do it. Liewed a Caisse mai tu mirk ine,

Is that what it seemed like so your His voice lowered a dangerous cire clear towards the end.

1 licked my dry lips and nodded to myself. Yes, it did. It felt like I was about to become your dirty secret.

Silence fell for a moment. My heart continued to beat faster and harder in any chest

– You didn’t mind is when you came to my room last night. Morals—I don’t think you have any, Little one. So why are you pretending to have them now!” His voice was cold and sharp.

My hands clenched into fixes, I stomped towards him and grabbed his shoulder

Suddenly, he turned around and gripped my throat. My hands fell to my sides as my body arched into his front, seeking the warmth, the touch, the

Sensations

After meeting Maximus, my mind was all messed up. I was even beginning to think that it must have been impossible for Aiden to fight the pull, this dangerous connection that made it impossible not to want the fated

His pwr clenched. “Whore!”

I opened my mouth, ready to tell him to go to hell, but nothing came out of it. My mind screamed yes before I could even understand anything. So, this was who I have become?

You think you can climb higher once I nurk you, Zia? “His face lowered, nearing mine threateningly. You dink you can become my Luna, then a Queen, and someday, you will own everything that belongs to me?

No. Ireathed. He was taking this wrong

His lips curled imo a sinister smirk. I blinked, wondering how he could change so much and look like a completely different person right now, So coll, so discounted, so wicked

* Greedy? Desperate?” I mumbled in disbelief and pulled my hand back. Yes! Tam that, I am desperate, and I am greedy.

His eyes narrowed manger. 1 jerked my neck free and stepped away from him

My breath hitched. I should fear him, and I should scream all my question.

What is wrong with your face?

What do those lines mean!

But, I found my mind drifting to what he was saying instead. well, you should know that I had no choice! I had no fucking g choice. Maximus. Right after 1 turned eighteen, my Dad dumped a huge responsibility on me, and there was no way I could refuse to take it on.

He sneered. “Are you about to tell me a sob story about how there must be a prophecy about the destruction of the werewolf race if you didn’t become Aiden’s mate? Save that facking story, I don’t fucking care about your lies. It’s just that you wanted to become a Luna and wanted to became a part of the Caine family. That’s why you didn’t wait and-

My blood ran cold in my veins. “Yes.”

He was about to say so much more, but he paused.” what?

You are right. “I took another step back from him. “I was about to tell you that sob story. I was about to tell you that there is a prophecy about a great war that will destroy the werewolf race if I don’t luve à Caine man’s mate mark. —I won’t say that anymore.

We got to know each other for such a short time, and he already thought the worst about me. I played a part in painting that picture.

I couldn’t undo it, but I couldn’t deny that it hurt either.

Who did —do to deserve to be hated like this by everyone?

1 tried my best to just protect everyone, then why- –

Why must they always refuse to believe me and have me!

“I didn’t want to marry Aiden. I gave up my life, my dreams, and my Pack to make things work with him. I tried until it felt like I was withering away and so tired that I wanted to walk away swallowed the hump in my throat.” But I couldn’t. I couldn’t just walk away. So, I endured. 1 endured everything only to have him bring home his fated mate and tell me that I must accept her, too. I almost gave up hope and damned the whole werewolf race, but then I met you

Maximus frowned and stepped closer, but I moved away. My cheeks felt wet, and I didn’t want to think that I was crying

* I thought- – -I thought I must cling to you, Maximus. I must ching to you shamelessly and pathetically if I wanted to be free of this torture and save the werewolf met at once. You felt like a lifeline, a savior. But you are not that. You are not my lifeline, Maximus. You are—another curse…

I turned around and attempted to storm sit of the office, but his arm closed around my waist and made me halt

Are you telling the truth? His deep voice whispered in my left car

1 shook my head. “You don’t have to believe me. I don’t care anymore.

* Answer me.” He hissed, his arm tightening around me.

My lungs constricted as I found my hack flush against his warm from “Y–Yes, I am

car, making my core ache for him.

go. He bit my carlobe, sending a wave of heat to my clenching core. Stay with me. I will never treat you like my whore. You are my mate and you will always be respected like one.

Everything inside me, including my wolf, was screaming at me to give in, to let him slam me into his desk and bury his cock inside me. But my mind didn’t agree.
