ELENA POV:
It's official.
I was heading for disaster.
I didn't know what was happening to me anymore.
Okay, so Kane is a bit of a jerk. He completely misunderstood what happened between me and Ace. That kiss wasn't what he thought it was. It wasn't desire or passion—it was a distraction, a trick.
But did he even let me explain? No.
He just stormed in, went full jealous alpha mode, and the next thing I knew, he was kissing me like a possessed wolf, all anger and dominance.
And about Ace's kiss?
I won't lie. It was sweet. The kind of kiss you dream about when you have a crush. Soft, lingering… but it lacked something. Something important. It felt good, but it didn't set me on fire.
Kane's kiss, though?
Even in his rage, in his infuriating arrogance, there was something electric. Something undeniable. And it pissed me off. Why did it have to be him? Why did I have to be mated to an arrogant, controlling alpha like Kane?
And then there was Dean.
