Kevin I got into my car and slammed the door harder than I needed to. My jaw still hurt like hell from where that golden shitstain Klaus had punched me. My throat felt raw too. I gripped the steering wheel tight as I drove back to my place, the anger boiling inside me like hot acid.*That fucking bastard thinks he can put his hands on me and walk away like a hero?* I thought. *I’m going to enjoy destroying him slowly. Piece by piece. By the time I pulled up to my apartment building, I was still seeing red. I stepped out of the car and froze when I saw who was standing right in front of my door.Bella.Just the sight of her irritated the shit out of me. She stood there looking flawless as always, like she owned the whole damn campus. But after the way she had kneed me in the balls earlier, all I wanted to do was slam the door in her face.I frowned hard. “What the fuck are you doing here?”“I came to see you,” she said calmly. “We need to talk.”I walked up to the door, keys in hand.

IMira POV “Nothing happened,” Klaus said quickly, almost too quickly. “And you don’t have to worry about Linda again.”I frowned immediately.“What do you mean?”Klaus leaned back against the headboard and let out a long breath.“After I got out, I exposed my father in front of the pack and the elders. Because of that, he’s been completely stripped of his power.”My mouth fell open.“What? Are you serious?”A small smile appeared on his face.“Yes.”I stared at him for a second, trying to process what he had just said.“You won't believe what he was doing when I escaped,” Klaus continued. “He was already feeding everyone lies. He told the pack that me, Tina, the guys, and some warriors had gone on a special mission outside the territory. He had everything planned out.”I shook my head in disbelief.“That’s insane.”“It gets worse,” Klaus said. “His next plan was to tell everyone we got kidnapped. Then he was going to drag things out for as long as possible while he figured out a way

Mira POVI paced back and forth across my room for what felt like the hundredth time.My eyes kept drifting toward the door.Every few seconds.Over and over.I still couldn't believe I had actually seen Klaus.He was back.He was really back.After days of not knowing where he was.After days of crying myself to sleep.After days of imagining the worst.He was finally here.And somehow that only made me more nervous.Because right now he was downstairs talking to Kevin.What if something happened?What if they got into another fight?What if Klaus disappeared again?The thought alone made my chest hurt."Stop saying stupid things," Sky snapped immediately.My wolf was practically bouncing off the walls inside my head.Her tail was wagging so hard she looked possessed."I told you we should never have left him alone with that dick-face Kevin. We should've dragged our mate upstairs the second we saw him."I sighed."Kevin saved us."Sky let out the loudest, most dramatic scoff imaginab

Kevin POV“Don’t hit him, Klaus!” Mira cried, grabbing his arm. “He saved me.”For the first time since he got here, Klaus actually looked confused.His grip loosened slightly on my shirt.“What?” he asked.Perfect.I quickly pushed myself back to my feet and wiped the blood from my mouth.Mira immediately stepped between us.“He saved me,” she repeated. “I was kidnapped. Bella set me up. They drugged me and took me. If Kevin hadn't shown up, I don't know what would have happened.”Klaus's eyes snapped toward me.I could practically see the thoughts running through his head.Suspicion.Anger.Confusion.Good.Let him choke on all three.Mira went on explaining everything that happened. The restaurant. The fake attack. Bella's betrayal. The masked men. The road ambush.And through all of it, I stood there looking like the perfect hero.Inside?I was enjoying every second.Outside?I kept my face serious.Concerned.Protective.Exactly what Mira expected.When she finally finished, I le

Alpha Kevin POVI drove Mira back to campus myself.The entire ride back, she barely looked out the window.She was physically here.Mentally?Not even close.Every few minutes her fingers would tighten around her phone before relaxing again.Klaus.She was thinking about Klaus.After everything that had happened tonight.After getting drugged.After getting kidnapped.After almost being handed over to Alpha Dean.She was still thinking about that bastard.I kept my smile firmly in place.No point getting annoyed.Not yet.Instead, I started talking.I told her about random school gossip.Who was secretly dating.Who got caught sneaking into another dorm.Which hockey player accidentally sent a shirtless picture into the team group chat.At first she barely reacted.Then she smiled.Then she laughed.A real laugh.Soft.Cute.The kind of laugh she used to give me years ago.Good.That was progress.By the time we reached her dorm building, she looked more relaxed than she had all nigh

Klaus POV And now it was the third day.Three damn days trapped in this nightmare.My body felt like it had been dragged through hell and back. The silver chains dug deep into my wrists every time I moved. The dark magic inside them drained my strength little by little until even breathing felt like work.I was worn out, tired down to my bones, and so hungry my stomach felt like it was eating itself.But none of that was the worst part.The worst part was Mira.Something was wrong.I could feel it.The feeling had started earlier that afternoon, but now it was getting stronger.Much stronger.My chest felt tight.My wolf paced restlessly inside my head.She's in trouble.I clenched my jaw.Maybe she was just worried about me.Maybe she was scared because I had disappeared.Maybe—No.My wolf cut me off immediately.This is different. Something happened.I hated how helpless I felt.I had pulled against these chains until my wrists bled.I had tested every link.Every lock.Every weak
