I wanted to ignore her.

Ignore her scent, ignore the way the smiled despite the obvious pain in her eyes, ignore the way r my gare kept tickering to her despite not wanting to.

I wanted to ignore it all.

But I couldn’t

And that was what frustrated m

The fact that during this entire ride, my thoughts had been mainly filled with her

I’d been surprised earlier today by her request.

Even though she knew the reason I kept her alive and why I wanted her to come with me to the pack, might not be anything good, she still agreed……... just for an alliance with her pack.

I thought she’d ask for something else

Anything else.

But all she wanted was an alliance.

Sure, it wasn’t a small thing

An alliance meant protection and support, something most, if not all, would kill for from my pack, But there hadn’t been an alliance in centuries. Not since the death of my mate.

That was why I was curious

About her reason.

About what she meant when she said those words:

I

“I don’t need to know. You could still decide to kill me for all I care… as long as I get to save them from dying. As long as the past doesn’t repeatibell”

What did she mean by the past repeating itself?

That was what had me confused.

“Hehe. I finished a bottle! I want another, another one,”

My eyes shifted to her, just in time to see her till the bottle to her lips, drops of champagne spilling down to her mouth. She smacked her lips before setting it down with a light chuckle, her eyes locked on the next bottle in front of her.

Then she muttered under her breath,

“I want another one. One’s not enough to get my drunk… I can’t get drunk from this alone.”

And then she turned sharply to the bottle in front of me. Her grin widened even more as she reached for it and before I could even think, my hand shot out and grabbed her wrist, stopping her in place and pulling her toward me

Ourfaces were.

Almost instantly, her gare flickered to mine, her eyes going wide with surprise. Her breathing turned soft and rapid as she stared at a

For a brief moment, neither of us spoke.

I felt like that silence would stretch on forever until

“What do you think you’re doing?”

sally broke it, my voice low and land withi

We were on our way back to my pack, and she was already drunk. Was this really the first impression she wanted to give?

Not that I cared.

Thad no intention of taking her as my mate, and her image meant nothing to me

But what irritated me, what truly bothered me was that she’d broken one of the very rules gave her

Do not come near me.

And yet, here she was.

And the sight of her right now only made that irritation burn hotter.

At my question, she blinked and the next moment, a slow laugh escaped her lips

My eyes narrowed as she leaned in even closer, until our lips were just a breath apart.

At that moment, my gaze flicked to her full, plump lips, and I watched as she ran her tongue across her bottom one and for some reason, the urge to feel those lips on mine hit me hard.

I remembered how soft they were the last time we kissed, and I nearly followed through with that urge

Until she lightly slapped my shoulder, breaking the moment.

“What am I doing? I’m not even sure at this point,” she said with a pout. “Everything is so intense and frustrating right now…I don’t know what the fuck

I’m doing

I could feel her hot breath fan against my lips as she spoke.

“But

night now… right now, all I want to do is drink. I don’t want to be sober…

Her voice dropped into a whisper.

“I don’t think I can…not right now,” she added, her voice cracking slightly at the end, her lips trembling

itted my head slightly as I watched her.

That look–That same look of pain in her eyes.

It surprised me that someone like her, someone who seemed like she grew up wealthy and pampered, could have that look, she’d been through hell.

Something… far too familiar.

Having lived for centuries, despite avoiding people, I had grown used to reading them.

And this girl, she was hiding behind walls made of pain, Just like I did.

“Can I drink the other bottle?” she asked, veice low, eyes watery and when a tear slid down her cheek, my breath hitched

“Please,” she whispered.

I frowned but said nothing.

Instead, I released her wrist and turned away, staring out the window.

She seemed to understand I’d given her permission, because she bowed her head slightly in gratitude before reaching for the second bottle
