Chapter Forty Seven

Isabella attempted pulling away from him, just for my benefit, but he wouldn’t let her go; he held onto her, kissing her. His hands ran down her body, the want in his eyes evident― No, this wasn’t him; it was his wolf, and I knew that, yet I couldn’t stop the tears. I should leave; I shouldn’t witness this, but I couldn’t bring myself to move. I watched him rip her clothes off, and finally she pulled him back.
