The office is a ghost town now; everyone else has left, leaving behind only the relentless hum of the fluorescent lights and the hollow sound of my own heartbeat echoing in a building that should feel like a sanctuary. But it doesn't feel safe. Not at all. "Come to my office." His tone is firm, leaving no room for negotiation. With him, it's never a question; it's a command.

I know I should refuse. I should grab my bag, make my way to the elevator, and return to my children-the life I painstakingly built without him. Yet, despite my better judgment, my feet betray me, trailing behind him as if drawn by an invisible force, an impulse that whispers of self-destruction and the chaos that comes with these two men who could unravel everything I've worked to protect. As soon as the door clicks shut behind us, the atmosphere shifts.

It grows heavier, charged with an electricity that has nothing to do with pack dynamics and everything to do with the way he's looking at me-intense and raw. Gone is the polished facade of the CEO; what stands before me now is a man stripped of pretense, revealing a desperate longing that has festered for eight long years. "Lia's handled," he states, his voice gravelly, as if each word is a weight he's been carrying. "Engagement's over. Done." His declaration lands heavily in the space between us, but I can't bring myself to trust it.

I don't trust him, and I certainly don't trust this sudden proclamation that follows his encounter with my children. "Convenient timing," I shoot back, my voice sharper than I intended, laced with skepticism. "Right after you meet Orion and realize he has your eyes." He steps closer, and instinctively, I should retreat, but I'm paralyzed, caught in his magnetic pull. "You think I'm playing games? You think I'd use them as leverage?" His voice drops, roughening with emotion. "I've been in love with you since we were kids, Thalia.

Since before Lia twisted everything, made me believe-" A laugh escapes me, a bitter sound that echoes my disbelief. What else can I do in response to such an absurd confession? "Love? You shattered me for two years. You made me feel worthless." "I know," he replies, backing me against the floor-to-ceiling windows, the city sprawling beneath us like a vast abyss. "I was a coward. I let her manipulate me, turn me into someone I loathed." His hand rises, cradling my face, his touch both tender and electrifying. "But that night-that night I saw what I'd been too blind to recognize.

That you were always mine." And then his lips are on mine, igniting a firestorm in my mind. This isn't a gentle kiss; it's a collision of eight years of pent-up desire, a desperate need that overwhelms any rational thought. His mouth is hot, demanding, and before I can fully process what's happening, I'm kissing him back, my body responding to a longing I thought I had buried. My back hits the cold glass, and his body is a furnace against me, solid and overwhelming, fulfilling a yearning I've carried since I was a teenager. His hand slips under my skirt, and I gasp against his lips.

"Fuck, I've wanted this. Wanted you." His other hand tangles in my hair, tilting my head back, seeking deeper access. "Tell me to stop." But I can't find the strength to say those words. I'm drowning in a heady mix of cedar and smoke, lost in the sensation of finally being desired by someone who knows my flaws and embraces them without hesitation. My legs instinctively wrap around his waist, and he groans, pulling me closer.

We're teetering on the brink of something irreversible-his desk, the couch, or maybe just the floor- But then reality crashes through the haze like a cold bucket of water. I'm reminded of the girl I once was, the one who loved him and suffered for it. I think of the woman who has survived without him for eight long years, and the mother of three children who could lose everything if I make the wrong choice. Lysander's face flashes through my mind-his gentle demeanor, his unwavering presence, the way he makes me feel safe instead of consumed.

"Wait." The word bursts from my lips, urgent and raw. "Stop." Kieran halts immediately, his breath coming in ragged gasps, visibly trembling with the effort to pull back. "What's wrong?" "I can't-" My voice breaks, and suddenly I'm overwhelmed with tears. Years of buried pain surge forth, unstoppable and flooding my senses. "I can't do this. I can't choose. I can't-" I push against his chest, and he lets me go, stepping back as I slide down the window, my legs giving way. But he's there, catching me before I hit the floor.

"Thalia-" "You destroyed me." The words tumble out, raw and fragmented. "For two years, you made me believe I was nothing. Less than nothing." My hands tremble, my entire body shaking with the weight of my emotions. "And Lysander stood by and did nothing." I can barely catch my breath through the tears. "That night in the guest house, I thought-I let myself believe that maybe you both actually-" I can't finish that thought. I can't voice the words that would expose my vulnerability. He's on his knees before me now, hands hovering just above my arms, wanting to reach out but hesitating.

"I know. Christ, I know what we did to you-" "And now I'm supposed to what? Just forget it?" I meet his gaze, my eyes ablaze with tears and fury. "Choose between the man who shattered me and the man who allowed it to happen? While raising three children who might belong to either of you?" I force myself to stand on shaky legs, creating distance between us before I do something irretrievable, something reckless. "I spent eight years building walls so high that nothing could penetrate them again." My voice drops to a whisper, heavy with the weight of my confession.

"And the moment I'm near you or Lysander, those walls start to crumble." "What do you feel?" His voice is a mixture of desperation and anguish. "Tell me what you feel." "Everything!" The word bursts forth, a declaration of my turmoil. "I feel everything, and it's tearing me apart." I summon the courage to meet his gaze. "With you, it's a consuming fire that terrifies me because loving you once nearly destroyed me.

With Lysander, it's a gentle warmth that makes me think maybe I could finally rest." I watch the realization settle over him, the conflict raging in his eyes as he processes my words. "But choosing means destroying one of you. And what if I choose wrong?" My voice quivers, breaking under the weight of my fears. "What if this intensity isn't fate, just my body remembering? What if safety isn't enough, and I spend forever wondering what could have been?" Kieran's expression shifts, a complex mix of pain, understanding, and desperate desire battling within him.

"So you'd rather choose neither?" His voice drops to a whisper, heavy with the implications. "Keep us both at arm's length forever?" "I'd rather not choose until I know it's real." I wrap my arms around myself, trying to hold the fragments of my heart together. "Until my children are safe, no matter what. Until I know I'm not repeating the same mistakes that left me pregnant and alone." The silence that envelops us is suffocating, laden with everything we cannot have and everything we still long for. Finally, he speaks, his voice a shattered whisper. "I'll wait.

However long you need." But the way he looks at me-eyes dark, jaw clenched, fists at his sides-tells me that this waiting might very well destroy him. "Just don't choose out of fear, Thalia." He steps closer, close enough that I can feel the heat radiating from him. "You deserve more than that." His hand rises, cupping my face with an unexpected gentleness that sends shivers down my spine. "When you choose-and you will choose-make sure it's what you truly want. Not what feels safe or what you think you should want." He drops his hand and steps back, creating a chasm between us.

"But know this: I'm not giving up. I'll fight for you every single day until you realize what I've known since we were children." "What's that?" "That you're mine." His voice drops to a possessive murmur, unwavering and absolute. "And I don't lose what's mine." Conclusion In this moment of raw vulnerability, Thalia stands at a crossroads, the weight of her past colliding with the uncertain promise of her future.
