Hernesting.
He… He belonged to Thistle.
It was a truth I knew to my bones—from the other shadow in the bond. The one that didn’t make up a full human, tethered to her like a shield.
But he’d… hurt her. My own instincts were running wild. IknewAce had hurt her. Yet, he was alive, and in this bondwithus.
My first thought was that I would kill him myself.
But I shoved that back. Right now,hewas the distraction I needed.
And I don’t know if he needed killing. He was feral and heat bonded. Living my worst nightmare—hisworst nightmare—from the little I knew of him.
She’d chained him completely, that mad fucking Omega. And now he’d come for her.
“Bunny…?”Her frail voice cracked, sightless violet eyes blinking up, as if she didn’t know what was happening. “You… came back?”
Feral, glacier-blue irises locked on the broken Omega curled up on the floor, and the storm became a tempest.
That was his Omega, shivering, vulnerable, and pinned by another Alpha.
And there was nothing in the world that would get in his way.
Shock had gripped the room since the moment he’d entered; a fist, strangling movement, sound, and breath, but with her desperate whisper, the spell broke.
The feral Alpha threw everything into chaos. A gun to her head suddenly meant nothing.Thiscreature would listen to neither threat nor reason.
And as the first Alpha in the room raised his gun to Ace, I found my cue to pull the trigger.

<3 He’d come back <3
My Ace.
My storm.
My God Alpha.
He was here for me!
And bound to me like this, he was mine—I knew it at last.
All mine.
He could never hurt me again—and he would protect me fromeverything.
Tears of relief flooded my face, and amongst the bullets and screams, I took a breath. The weight of the Alpha above me was lesser as he looked at the threat that had just entered.
I knew what I needed to do.
I reached out, brave enough, now, to fumble shivering fingers through the pieces of Bunny that were scattered at my side.
And there it was, the slip of weighted metal that still carried the faintest trace of dark cream cardamom. A switch blade stolen from Glade’s abandoned vanity.
Despite my shivering, I flipped it open just as the Alpha above me tried to push from the floor. His eyes were locked on the room where gunshots rang, and chaos reigned.
