LIANA’S POV
I didn’t know how long I’d been curled up on the bed, but I was still shaking. The chest hadn’t gone anywhere.

Killian sat beside me, brushing his fingers lightly over my arm. He didn’t say much.
“Have you eaten today?”
I shook my head slowly, still staring at the sheets.
“Are you hungry now?” he asked, softer this time.
had stopped, but the feeling in my
I nodded, still curled up. My voice was stuck somewhere in my throat, but I was hungry. Just not for food.
He let out a breath, gentle and warm. “Okay,” he said, standing up slowly. “I’ll go grab something from the café downstairs. It won’t take long. Just rest.”
As he turned, I suddenly reached out and grabbed his hand. “Not that kind of food,” I said.
He paused, confused. “What do you mean?”
Before he could finish that thought, I pulled him back down and slammed my lips onto his. a desperate hungry kiss.
Killian stiffened for a second, surprised. But his hand came up to cup my face, and for a moment, he kissed me back.
Then he pulled away gently.
“Liana,” he breathed. “Baby, you need to eat. Real food. Not… this.”
I looked at him, my chest rising and falling. “But I want this. I want you.”
His eyes softened, but he shook his head. “Let me just get you something. Give me a few minutes. I swear, I’ll give you whatever you want after that.”
As he stood up and started buttoning his shirt again, I reached out and grabbed his hand. “Don’t go.
“Liana-”
I pulled him back again and kissed him harder this time. I pinned his hands to the bed, leaning over him, my fingers tugging his shirt open again, button by button.
Killian blinked up at me, caught off guard. “What are you doing?”
“Don’t go. Just… Just fuck me,” I said. “Please, I want to forget everything.”
He swallowed hard. “And I really do want to give you that. I do. But you’ve barely eaten. Your body needs more than this
right now.”
I didn’t want to listen. I kissed him again, slower this time, dragging my lips over his.
He groaned into the kiss but pulled back one more time, brushing my hair out of my face.
“Give me five minutes,” he said. “Five. I’ll be back with food. Then I’m all yours.”
I sighed, giving in. “Fine. Five minutes.”
He smiled, kissed my forehead, grabbed his card, and left the room.

I stared at the door for a while. My stomach twisted. I didn’t want to be alone. Not now, when I was still hurting.
Five minutes passed.
Then ten.

He still wasn’t back.
Something inside me started itching. Restless. I got up, adjusted my cloth and slipped into the hallway. I took the elevator
down to the lobby, hoping to see him near the café.
But he wasn’t alone.
I saw him standing near the bar.
He was smiling. Laughing at something a woman said. She was beautiful. Tall. Blonde. Dressed like someone who didn’t
need to try hard to get attention. She had her hand on his chest.
He didn’t push her away.
I stopped walking. My heart dropped. My hands went cold.
She leaned in, said something in his ear. He chuckled.
And just like that, possession seeped inside my soul.
I didn’t even think. I started walking, fast.
I reached them in seconds and without hesitation, I slid my hand around Killian’s arm and pulled him close, holding onto
him possessively.
The woman blinked, stepping back slightly. “Uh… Killian? Who’s she?”
He turned, his mouth opening to say something but I beat him to it.
“He’s mine.”
KILLION’S POV
She kissed me.
Right in front of the woman.
My brain barely had time to process what was happening before Liana grabbed my face and slammed her lips against mine, full of heat and fury, her fingers tangling in my hair like she was trying to tell the entire goddamn hotel that I belonged to
her.
“Baby,” she whispered breathlessly, licking her bottom lip as she pulled away just enough to smirk at the woman watching us with wide, blinking eyes, “let’s go finish what we started inside.”
I was stunned
And amused
She looked like a complete menace. Her eyes wild. Her smirk wicked. Her fingertips tracing circles on my chest, trailing lower and lower, all while giving the other woman the deadliest death glare I’d ever seen. and then she bit her lip and tilted her head just slightly, doing that seductive little thing that made my body react before my brain could catch up.
The moment we stepped into the room, she didn’t wait. She slammed the door behind us and shoved me onto the bed like she’d had enough of pretending

She climbed on top of me, her eyes blazing.
“You left me waiting on the bed,” she said, stepping forward, her fingers already toying with the buttons of my shirt. “While
you were out here, laughing with another girl like I wasn’t inside… needing you.”
She bit her lip, eyes darkening as she shoved me back onto the bed.
“You’re too handsome,” she muttered, crawling up over me, straddling my lap. “I need to claim you before someone else tries
to.”
I wanted to say something, anything, but her hands were already on my chest, pushing my shirt off my shoulders.
Her eyes had darkened into something almost unnatural, the shade deeper, more dangerous. and her teeth…
Her canines were longer.
And the aura that came out of her…
Fuck.
My heart thudded hard in my chest as I stared up at her, barely breathing. Because what I felt coming off her… was strange. It wasn’t just a she–wolf heat response.
No.
It was a powerful aura. One that only alphas of a pack possesses.
“No…” I whispered to myself, shaking my head.
No, it can’t be. Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I’m just feeling the bond. Maybe it’s just–but it wasn’t.
The energy pouring out of her? It was undeniable.
And then she kissed me again. Desperately.
“Liana—” I tried, my voice hoarse, but she pinned my hands above my head.
Her eyes bore into mine.
“Mate,” she whispered
I froze.
Everything inside me froze.
I had waited years to hear that word come from her mouth. Had given up on it, honestly accepted the idea that I’d never be marked. That I’d never be claimed. That I’d never know the feeling my kind lived for because I had thought my mate was just
a human.
But before I could even prepare myself for it, she sank her teeth into my collarbone.
My whole body jerked
Pain
And then euphoria.
The bite burned like fire and lightning and heaven and rage all at once.
I gasped. My cock was already rock hard, throbbing beneath her.
She pulled back, her lips red, her teeth wet, her eyes darker than night itself.
Fuck me, mate-

Goddess.
I didn’t let her finish.
My lips slammed against hers, rough and hungry. I rolled her over, then back again, wanting to see her.
The shirt was gone. Her body was so warm, her skin pressed against mine, and I couldn’t stop myself. My lips moved to her bite mark, then down her neck, to her breasts, kissing, sucking, groaning as if I’d waited lifetimes for this.
She whimpered, grabbing my hair, pressing herself against me.
“Killian,” she gasped. “Harder.”
Her moans were everything.
I growled, hands on her hips, guiding her down slowly onto me. Her body took me in so perfectly, so damn tight, slick, hot.
She cried out, her back arching.
“Fuck–yes, yes…” she whimpered, voice cracking.
I held her to me, one arm curled around her waist, the other hand tangled in her hair.
She moved against me in a rhythm that made me forget how to think. I rolled us over, pulling her close, spooning her from
behind as I pushed back inside, slow and deep.
Her hands gripped the sheets.
“Oh my God, Killian, more–don’t stop, please don’t stop.”
“I’m not,” I growled into her neck. “I’m never stopping.”
I thrust harder.
She cried out loud.
“Fucking hell, Killian!”
“You marked me,” I whispered into her ear, still thrusting. “You fucking marked me, baby.”
Her body tensed around me and I lost it. I fucked her deeper, harder, my cock sliding in and out of her soaked heat, her moans turning into screams, into sobs, into something feral.
“Yes–yes–yes! Killian, I can’t–I’m gonna–ahhhh!”
I didn’t slow.
She was clenching, trembling.
I kissed her shoulder, her spine, her neck. I reached down to rub her clit, and her whole body spasmed.
I’m cumming–I’m fucking cumming–Killian–ahhhhhh–fuck–fuck–yes-”
“Cum for me, Liana,” I grunted, rutting into her. “Let them fucking hear you.”
And she did
She screamed my name so loud, I thought the walls shook.
And then I came Hard My release slamming through me as I emptied everything I had inside her, marking her in every way.
We collapsed together, bodies tangled, still panting.
I kissed her back. Her neck. Her cheek

“I love you,” I whispered.
She didn’t answer.
But the way she curled into me, trembling, still breathless… it was enough.
