was feeling for and squeezed my eyes shut, willing my body to react.

“Your heart pulse says differently, Luna. Tell me.” His voice was still soft but it held a stern undercurrent. Think, Luna, think!

“Oh… that’s not because I’m lying… which I’m not… it’s just my body responding to you?”

“Mhmmm, and why was that a question?”

“It wasn’t?” He snorted, but continued to rub my wrist.

“Lying to me is futile, Luna, I thought you would’ve figured that out by now.”

“I thought so too.” I mumbled under my breath and watched as his fingers rubbed slow circles on my wrist. We were quiet for a while, watching as our skin melted together. The skin he touched tingled and left the skin feeling numb, overloaded with the feel of him.

“Evading the truth can only work for so long, and my wolf grows tired of trying to seed out which is which.” My temper flared and my muscles tensed. I hated when he seperated him and his wolf, it made me feel like the human side of him didn’t cared about the human side of me.

“And you?” His fingers stilled on my wrist, right over my pressure point.

“I don’t matter, not in this.”

“And why not, you matter as much as I do in this instance.”

“We have different interests. You, the war… me-”

“Your human.”

“Luna-”

“No, just say it. She is to you as the war is to me.”

“That’s not fair.”

“That’s life, and I’ve adapted. After all, I am a wolf.”

“And wolves prioritize, that’s simply what we’ve both done.” A stab of pain went through me at that moment and I became feral.

“And she, a human female, is more important than your mate?”

“She loves me.” I started but simply bit on my tongue, drawing blood. Saying things like that did nothing but cause problems and complicate things for the both of us.

“It complicates nothing, Luna.”

“No head snooping, it’s rude. And we agreed not to do it.”

“You agreed, I do that thing where you think I’m listening but in all actuality I’m head snooping.” I laughed softly and pinched his finger. He chuckled and grabbed my hand and held it in his.

“We’ve been thinking about what you said.” My brow furrowes and I looked up at him to find his eyes looking at our twined hands.

“What did I say.”

“About the time getting closer, and me needing to move on.” My frown deepened as I thought and I was brought and image from my wolf. “ It’s been long enough.” Was whispered into my head and comprehension brightened my face.

“Oh, Ander, I-”

“No, we’ve been thinking...and you’re right.” I choked on my air supply and my eyes shot up to his. They were watching me intently, wolf like and bright.

“What do you mean I’m right, I’m hardly ever right, I can’t be right.”

“Well this time you are. This time you’re right. I have to let her go.”

“Ander, just listen-”

“I am, I’m finally listening to you-” I cut him off with a kiss that I put my body in to. When I pulled awayI struggled to keep my smirk hidden when his lips followed mine and his hands moved to bring me closer.

“You and her, you’re good together. Great. You’re like a warm vacation to the bahamas.”

“But you and me, we’re the hot sauna in Fiji. I need the heat more.” With that he slammed his lips onto mine and pinned me to the bed in one move, startling a gasp out of me. He took advantage of my open mouth and began his perusal. I whimpered as he bought my body to life and made my heart flutter in my chest. I threaded my fingers through his hair and arched into him, my body aching for him to touch me anywhere.

“I love you, Luna, I love you so much.” He whispered as his lips moved from my mouth and down to my neck. I wiggled under him and moaned softly, rubbing his scalp while his lips and tongue moved on my body. MY heart beat against my ribcage and his hand covered my breast and gave it a firm squeeze.

“I want you.” I clenched my teeth and crossed my eyes at the amount of blinding pleasure.

“This isn’t…. this isn’t right.” I sighed, putting my hand on top of his and lifting it. Confusion and lust lingered in his eyes and he leaned down to kiss me again, I turned my head so he ended up kissing my cheek but that didn’t seem to matter to him. He kissed down my neck, making what I was going to say 5,000 times harder.

“You… you belong to Karen, with her. You’ve been together so long, your smells have entwined. You love her and… you need her more than you need me right now… Gods, Ander stop!” I moaned arched into him as he bit on my neck softly then licked the knick.

“I need you, no one else. I see that now.” I took his face in my hands and stroked his cheek lovingly, sadness taking over, replacing the lust.

“Do you?” His eyes looked vulnerable and questioning as he leaned in to my hand.

“She’s for you. If you want her, keep her.” You sure as hell can’t keep me, I thought sourly and kissed his nose.

“But-” I kissed his lips once to silence him then smiled.

“Sleep, you’re tired.” I said softly and brought his head to my chest. Together, with his arms surrounding me and his taste on my lips, we went to sleep.

This time when I woke, I woke to a pleasent change. Ander had me in his arms and my face tucked into his neck. My wolf sighed contentedly as I nuzzled deeper into his warmth and stole his scent and stored it in my greedy lungs.

“Luna,” Leotis called through the link making me groan/growl at him in my head “your presence is needed.” He sent me a picture of a pissed off Azazil and a feral looking Izzy. With a curse I sat up quickly, jerking myself away from the warmth. He sat up, eyes wide and amber.

“What’s wrong?”

“School, Izzy, Azazil.” I said, running to the bathroom and running my fingers through my bedraggled hair. I brushed my teeth and was happy that I didn’t smell too bad, I didn’t have time for a shower. I yanked on a pair of sweats and a takntop, pulling my hair into a ponytail.

“Want me to meet you there?” He asked as I tugged on a pair of socks and my converse.

“Yeah, I’m zipping though. Not taking my bike, it’s not fast enough.” Giving him an apologetic look before using my magic to zip through the space between the other victors and I. Something we’d learned we  could do last year, we had the power to teleport to each other using the magic we were given. I’d only used it when times called for it, or if I just wanted to be nosy. I appeared next to Leotis and in front of a major stare down.

“Finally you got here, took you ages.” I rolled my eyes at his comment and crossed my arms, looking at the two.

“What’s wrong with them?” I asked, taking in Izzy’s tight body and Azazil’s gritted teeth.

“If I had to guess, I’d say they’re trying not to kill each other.”

“Doing a pretty good job at it, I might add.” Ursula commented, raising a blond impressed brow.

“And how-” before my sentence was finished Izzy closed the space and grabbed Azazil by his head and bought his face to her knee before she elbowed him in the back. With a grunt he fell to the floor, only to lift with a snarl. He kicked her gut and only then I realized we were in front of the school and had quite the audience. The shifter that had been eyeing her all week zoomed to her and helped her up, even after the glare she sent him. She snatched her arm from him and made a bee line toward Azail, only to be yanked back by the shifter. She didn’t do anything but look at him and raise one brow, an Izzy sign for back down and there wil be no pain. He raised one back and moved to tug her, She snarled, something I’m telling myself she didn’t learn from me, and snatched her hand from his and ran toward a smirking Azazil. The shifter was, of course, faster. He grabbed her around her waist and picked her up, grimacing at the kicks and the threats that came his way.

“Just calm the fuck down Isebail!” My eyes widened at the tone, and realized he was an Alpha, the king of his pride. Izzy stilled, but not because the command had any effect on her. It didn’t she had become immune to Alpha commands, if anything they only made her angry. No, this time she stilled at the use of her name. He, stupidly, let her down thinking she listened to his command. All the victors groaned at his stupidity, making him look to us and not see her turn around and deck him.

“Don’t fucking call me that, ass lick.” She hissed before turning to Azazil.

“Now, where were we?” She asked before she cracked her neck and walked to him.

“What’d he do?”

“He’s a demon.” Ursula answered, staring at us all blankly when we looked to her.

“What? Isn’t that reason enough?”

“...It is Izzy we’re talking about.” Evangeline said and we sighed in agreement, the slightest thing could rouse her in to a fight. It made my heart grow with pride, honestly, but it was a ‘bad’ life skill; so I’m told.

“Does anybody know what he actually did to her?” I asked, frowning as Izzy cried her war cry and settled for using her head to attack him.

“Not what he did to her, what he did to her sister.” My nostrils flared and my eyes looked to the demon who stood watching Izzy in amusement.

“What’d he do?”

“He did what demons do best…. enjoy the humans.” A growl slipped though my lips and I broke away from the line of victors and towards Azazil. His smirk went down slightly as his eyes tracked me.

“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” I snarled and narrowed my eyes on him.

“She was willing, it was consensual.” He said, rolling his eyes. The only warning he had was the slight tick below my eye before I punched him in the jaw. I heard something crack and grinned as he popped the bone back in and glared at me with those black eyes.

“All humans, especially the McReery’s, are off limits. Got-” the air kicked out of my lugs as he kicked me in the abdomen. I snarled as I was thrown through the air and into the tree across the yard. I heard something crack, it was either the tree or something in my spine…. probably the tree.

“Aw now… now we fight.” I growled before running to him, only to be picked up by my waist.

“Calm love, you’re allies not enemy.” Ander whispered in my ear, soothing my wolf but not me. I growled and summoned a rock from my earth element into my hand. I tossed it toward Azazil, knowing he was going to catch it then I set it on fire. He cursed and dropped the fiery ball and I picked it up and knocked him upside the head with it.

“You’re still in a human casing, dick weed,” I said, smirking as the humans gasp at my words “you’re as sensitive to heat, disease, and extreme conditioning as the average Joe. Off limits, all of them. Next time you touch one of them,” I tapped Ander’s arm “this won’t be enough to stop me.”

“I thought we had an agreement, Luna dear, we were supposed to be nice to each other.” Abaddon purred, appearing in smoke next to her companinon. Gasps and shrieks came from the humans as they ran into the school for safety. I rolled my eyes and subltey pulled myself away from Ander’s arms but he only
