Chapter 215
Time stretched while they stayed knotted breathing each other is, tangled together in the aftermath, his wolf quieting just enough to let him rest.
Kaelani’s fingers threaded through his hair, slow strokes, steadying him the same way his hold steadied her.
The bond between them pulsed-present, hungry, unfinished.
Julian’s breath shuddered as he felt it.
A low, restless pull that didn’t fade after the peak. It stayed. It hummed.
Because the truth was brutal:
He was inside her, knotted and anchored to her-
but not sealed to her soul.
Kaelani felt it before he said a word-the tension in him, th
himself together by force.
Not from pain.
From something darker.
From fear.

way his body stayed too still, too braced, like he was holding
She shifted beneath him, not trying to escape the hold, not pulling away-doing the opposite.
Her legs wrapped tighter around him, as if she could draw him in any deeper.
Julian sucked in a sharp breath.
“Kaelani-” His voice came out rough, surprised by her movements.
She answered with just a slow roll of her hips against him, testing the pressure, chasing the closeness the knot had forced between them. The friction pulled a broken sound from her throat-soft, breathy-her moans coming in little gasps as her body remembered how good it felt to have him exactly like this.
Julian stumbled on a breath, like he’d been hit.
He was still hard-aching with it–but he couldn’t thrust the way instinct screamed for. The knot kept him bound to her,
r trapped in the most perfect kind of torment.
Carefully, he rolled them over until he was on his back and she was astride him. Kaelani rocked against him in slow circles, grinding down, her body taking its time-driving him wild.
His hands went to her-firm at her hips, thumbs digging in just enough to make his hold feel like a claim. He guided her pace, slowing her when she got frantic, pulling her down when she tried to lift away.
His grip tightened. He dragged her closer, making sure she felt every inch he could give, the knot keeping them locked together while his hands did the work his hips couldn’t.
Suddenly, a subtle shift moved through him low in his body, like a fist unclenching.
The knot was beginning to ease.
Julian drove upward.
Not wild. Not careless.

Just sudden hard enough to steal a gasp from her as his hips finally moved the way they’d been begging to. He set a steady rhythm beneath her, forcing her to ride the thrust instead of controlling it.
Kaelani’s head tipped back, a broken sound slipping out as the change hit her deeper, stronger, incessant.
Julian’s jaw clenched as he watched her react, her body shuddering as she took him, pleasure sharpening across her face. He watched her breasts bounce as her pussy slid up and down his cock, like she was milking him for every sound.
“Fuck,” he breathed, voice shredded, and he drove into her harder without meaning to.
His hands held her hips like a claim, thumbs digging in as he kept driving up into her measured, punishing in the best way- until her movements turned messy, until her breaths came in sharp little sobs, until she started to tremble like she was right on the edge again.
Julian’s eyes tracked her like prey and prayer all at once.
He let her have it.
Let her chase it.
Let her make him feel exactly how much she wanted him.
And it damn near undid him.
Julian’s voice came out ruined. “Kaelani…”
