“I was good to you,” he whispered. “I was good to you.” 

blinked fast, my own throat burning. 

The silence after Jake’s last words was crushing. He sat there with his Jaw tight and his shoulders trembling slightly like he was trying to hold something in. But it was clear the leash on s control was fraying. 

I didn’t recognize him anymore. 

“I was good to you,” he whispered again, and this time, there was no heartbreak in his tone, only something eerily hollow and broken in all the wrong places. 

I turned my head, blinking, trying to find the right words. Anything to calm the air that was thickening like a noose around my neck. 

“Jake,” I croaked. “I didn’t mean for…” 

His hand snapped out and gripped the back of my head before I could finish. My gasp barely made it out of my throat before he pulled me forward, fast and hard, crushing his mouth against mine. 

1 jerked in shock at the desperation and roughness in his kiss. 

I whimpered, my hands flying up to push at his chest, wriggling and fighting, but he was too strong and too far gone. 

My heart was screaming. I shoved harder again, my palms colliding against his collarbone until finally, finally, I twisted away just enough to break free, gasping for air. 

I yanked at the door handle and practically threw myself out of the car. 

The cool night air slapped me in the face. Gravel bit into the soles of my shoes as I ran a few feet before spinning around, 

my chest heaving. 

Jake followed me. 

He stumbled out, his eyes wide and manic under the single yellowish gleam of streetlamp above us. His hair was tousled, and lips red from the forceful kiss, while his hands were twitching like he didn’t know what to do with them. 

He didn’t look like Jake anymore. 

“Don’t,” I warned, raising my palm to keep him back. “Don’t come closer.” 

“Kasmine…” 

“No!” I snapped, “Don’t. Please. Jake, I’m sorry,” I breathed, “I’m sorry for everything. I’m sorry you had to 

you had to see it. But you have to understand…”

I stepped back, my heart pounding so loud it nearly deafened me. My pulse thudded in my ears. My lungs couldn’t catch

Jake, I never meant to hurt you.” 

Tears pressed hot behind my eyes, but I blinked them back because he was still moving and coming closer. 

now have a mate,” I whispered. My chest split open around the words. “I belong to someone else now. And I need you to “let me go.” 

His face contorted. Something darker had taken root. 

But he shook his head, almost childlike. “No,” he rasped. “No, you don’t get to say that. Not after everything. Not after what I gave you. I gave you my heart, Kasniine. All of it!” 

“I’m sorry…” I sobbed. 

“Just love me back, and I’d save you, Mine. I will, I swear. We still have time.” He rushed his words, and I got even more 

terrified. 

“What do you mean, Jake? Stay away from me!” I panicked and yelled, about bolting when he lunged. 

Before I could even suck in a scream, his hand shot out, gripping the back of my head with a force that made my neck snap forward. His mouth crashed into mine again.
