NALEDI’S POV
“I accept your rejection.” As soon as the words went out my mouth, a searing pain tore through my neck, moving down to my heart and exploding all over my body.
A guttural growl of pain left my lips and in that moment, everything went red. My wolf came forward, and my entire body felt like they were being ripped in half.
“Seize her!” I heard the faraway voice of Matteo, and a shot was fired in my neck to hinder my transformation.
I saw my wolf, curled up in my mind and whimpering as her other half was taken away from her. I didn’t think the pain would be this searing, and in that moment, I wished things had gone differently.
I wished it didn’t have to be like this. I wished I could have prevented myself from such pain, I and my wolf. A cuff was suddenly placed on my wrist, the iron bodice cold against my hot skin.
