Chapter 36
-Grayson’s POV-
I felt the flames rise, licking closer and closer to my skin, the heat unbearable. My wolf surged forward in response, roaring inside my head, and I let him take control, Chains snapped, wood cracked, and we crashed through the cabin wall, bursting into the night just before the fire engulfed everything behind us.
The fresh air hit me like a punch, cool and sharp. I didn’t waste any time. My paws pounded against the ground as I ran through the trees, my lungs burning with each breath.
Death had come for me once before.
I knew that feeling–the cold, endless void that seemed to stretch on forever, pulling me deeper, drowning me in nothingness. It was like falling, slipping further and further away from everything that made me who I was. But then, just before the darkness could take me, I was pulled back.

Once inside, I shifted back into my human form, the transformation smooth but leaving me momentarily drained. My limbs felt heavy, and the remnants of the wolfsbane still lingered in my system, dulling my senses, however, I couldn’t afford

The hot water from the shower did little to soothe my muscles, at least it washed away the soot, the blood, the evidence of another close brush with death. I dressed quickly, my hands moving with precision, adjusting my tie in the mirror, my reflection staring back at me, cold and unfeeling.
I should be dead. Again.
But instead, I was standing here, alive, and that meant someone was going to pay for what happened tonight
I moved to my laptop, fingers flying across the keyboard as I inputted the information I had gathered about Dominic. Narcissist. Personal vendetta against me because of something I’d done to his family, something he couldn’t let go. Hot- headed. Dangerous, but predictable. I forwarded the details to Carter, already anticipating his response.
