A Homecoming Bond and an Unexpected Encore

The moment Jaxon and I reached our climax simultaneously, something extraordinary happened. It wasn't just the physical pleasure—which was mind-blowing enough—but something deeper. A connection snapped into place with such force that I gasped, my entire body trembling with the intensity of it.

"Oh my god," I whispered, as waves of completion washed over me.

This was different from when I bonded with Silas. That had been beautiful, meaningful... but this? This felt like coming home after being lost for years. Like finding a piece of myself I never knew was missing.

Jaxon felt it too. I could see it in the way his pupils dilated, in the slight parting of his lips, in the sudden vulnerability that flashed across his usually guarded features.

"Hazel," he breathed my name like a prayer, his hands tightening on my hips.
