Kane’s POV
The night was dragging and still I couldn’t sit still.
I had tried…. I had tried pacing the halls, I had tried going to the training yard, my fists slamming into the posts until my knuckles split and healed again. I had even tried drowning myself in reports from warriors returning from patrol. None of it mattered.
Every time I closed my eyes, all I saw was Ava laughing with Lucas. All I smelled was her scent, tangled with his, clinging to the hall where I’d found them together.
My wolf prowled just beneath my skin, restless and savage. Go to her, take her, seal her.
I raked a hand through my hair and growled, low in my throat. “I will,” I muttered under my breath. My voice echoed in the empty office, the weight of my decision settling heavier with each passing hour.
