KASMINE.

The doorknob turned.

My heart sank. My breath froze in my chest like ice splintering through my lungs.

I whipped my head around, scanning the room. It was small, pathetic, and cramped. One window nailed shut. No back door. No closet to hide in. And, stupidly, stupidly, I hadn’t even locked the darn door when Jake left.

It creaked open slowly, like the beginning of a horror movie where the girl never survives. Except this wasn’t fiction. This was my life. My reality. My punishment

And there stood.

Kester my so–called mate.

Tall. Lethal Beautiful in that cruel, haunting way only the devil himself could be.

The scent hit me harder. It was strong, smoky, and spicy. Masculine, wild, and so mine.

My body betrayed me on the spot.

My traitorous wolf, Zera, whimpered inside me, “Mate. Mate.”

No. Not now. Not this time.

–

But Kester saw it all the flicker in my eyes, the way my knees trembled, and the flush that crept up my neck.

He smiled. That goddamn arrogant smirk he always had on when he knew I’d been cornered.

He stood calmly for a second or two, hands by his sides.

“Good to see you again, mate,” he said with a grin as he stepped into the small room, closing the door behind him.

“What the hell are you doing here? How did you find me, Kester?” I demanded, trying to summon steel into my voice, but it came out soft, tired, and too vulnerable.

The pull of the bond was almost too overwhelming for me. I felt like jumping on him, wrapping my legs around him, and Inhaling his scent like a greedy child.

God, his scent was overly intoxicating.

His eyes drank me in. “You are now mine, baby. You can’t run away from me, you know that, right?” He stepped closer, “Besides, you don’t think I’d keep my eyes off you when you have my child growing inside you.”

My eyes kept betraying me as they kept drifting to the shopping bag he had in his hand. I swallowed hard, wondering what was in the bag that smelt so good. My stomach clenched. I hated how hungry I suddenly felt.

He noticed.

“You haven’t been eating right,” he said as he placed the bag on the table, his eyes never leaving mine. “I can smell it on you- weakness. Exhaustion. You’re not taking care of our baby.”

Chapter 264

“Get out, Kester, I don’t want to see you,” I pointed toward the door, even though we both knew it was a useless gesture. My voice cracked mid–command, and that was all the weakness he needed.

He moved, and in a few steps, he was inches from me. Close enough that I could feel the heat coming off his body like a fire! desperately wanted to touch and run from at the same time.

“Come here, baby,” he pulled me by my wrist in one hard yank. I stumbled and almost fell, but I was quick enough to place my hands on his shoulders before I crashed into him.

I hated the way I melted just by touching him. Hated the way my body remembered his. Hated that I still wanted to curl into him and breathe him in like he was the only thing keeping me alive.

“Let go of me,” I whispered, even though my hands stayed where they were.

His gaze dropped to my lips and then back to my eyes.

‘You’re not going anywhere, Kasmine,” he said tenderly. “Not now. Not ever.”

My pulse thundered in my ears while Zera howled in my chest.

“He’s ours. Take him. Touch him. Just once. Please.“.

I pushed her back with everything I had.

“You don’t own me, Kester.” I spat, but he only chuckled.

“You still believe that, Kasmine? I own you now, baby. I own everything about you now. Including the breath you take. Fate has decided. You have no choice here, love.” He said, still gazing into my eyes intently, “It’s not like you had a choice before now.”
