Becca’ POV Three Hours Three long hours and for every minute of those three hours, Maddy Lance has been glued to Bas like a pesky leech, refusing to let go. I knew it was going to be difficult but I didn’t know it was going to be this hard. Maddy made sure to always be by Bas’s side not wanting to lose him to another competition. I didn’t have time for this I needed to talk to Bas and I wasn’t going to end today without saying a word.As I marched forward, determination coursing through my veins, I swiftly gathered my hair into a ponytail, the strands clinging to my damp neck. With each brisk step towards Bas, my heart raced, with a mixture of nerves and frustration. “Hey, can we—” My words were cut short as Maddy popped out of nowhere, her presence like a sudden gust of wind disrupting my plans. “Just the girl I was looking for,” her sharp voice sliced through the air as she cat walked towards Bas, her hand gripping his as if to stake her claim. “Hey, Maddy, could you just—” I

BAS POV I can’t stop thinking about the kiss The words echoed in my mind, tormenting me relentlessly Why couldn’t I get those words off my mind? Maybe I was too harsh on her “So,” Maddy’s voice broke through my internal turmoil, pulling me back to reality. Her eyes held a mixture of uncertainty and longing as she tentatively reached out to touch my chest. “Since we’re done for the day, I was thinking I could come over to your place,” she suggested, her voice soft yet filled with anticipation. Normally, I would have declined, but right now, I needed a distraction, something to pull me away from thoughts of Rebecca. “Sure,” I replied with a smirk, the corners of my lips curling up in a feigned nonchalance as I took her hands in mine, leading her towards my car. The evening breeze felt cool against my skin but yet every part of me burned. Gripping the wheel tightly, I drove towards my a

Bas POVThe cool water trickled down my body, its touch a feeble attempt to soothe the storm raging within me. How could I have been so careless? Why did I allow my mind to wander back to her? Controlling myself had never been a challenge, but with her, it felt like impossible. Just the thought of her made it feel like my body was burning. This feeling of longing, of having her so badly was it as a result of the mark, did my wolf crave for her so badly? It had to be.. right? Shaking my head in frustration, I grabbed my towel and stepped out of the shower. As I scanned the room, the lingering scent of Maddy hung in the air with the overwhelming sense of guilt that gnawed at my insides. I knew I had hurt her deeply.Dressing quickly, I made the decision to leave, the thought of being alone with my thoughts too unbearable to bear. As I slid into my car, I reached for my phone, intending to call Tom for some much-needed company. But he didn’t pick up. Where was he? And why wasn’t he ans

Bas POV As I stepped out of the barn, I continued walking not daring to look back until I was far gone from her sight. When I could no longer feel her gaze behind my back I stop trying to process what just happened.Stupid, how could you let your guard down I tried to calm my racing heart, but thoughts of her widened eyes and hitched breath when I drew her close flooded my mind. Did she want me to kiss her? No, that couldn’t be right. The Rebecca I knew wouldn’t hesitate to pull a bullet through my heart. But then she confessed she couldn’t stop thinking about our kiss. Was she just trying to deceive me? I paced back and forth in the empty field, grappling with my conflicted thoughts. Why did she have this effect on me? Why couldn’t I control my feelings around her? Dammit!!!I shook my head, trying to dispel the unwelcome thoughts that refused to be silenced. This couldn’t be happening. There was no way I was going to make the same foolish mistake like Sam. I wasn’t weak or fooli

Becca POV As Bas drove, I couldn’t resist stealing glances at him. His knuckles white from gripping the wheel, a vein pulsating on his forehead, and his breaths coming out ragged, as if he were struggling to contain his anger.Flashes of him gripping Joe against the tree flooded my mind.Why was he so mad? Did he desperately want to kill me that the thought of someone else doing it made him get so angry like this?My mind raced with many possibilities. Confused on what to do.“Stop staring,” Bas muttered, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. I jerked slightly, caught off guard. “Wh-what?” I stammered, meeting his intense gaze.He turned to face me, his expression unreadable. “Why don’t you just say what’s on your mind?” he urged, before returning his attention to the road, his grip tightening on the steering wheel.There was no way I was going to tell him what’s going on in my mind. I didn’t trust him But you’re here with him and having no idea where his taking you too. A voice in with

Becca POVOne bed!They only had one bed in the room. What on earth were they thinking? My heart pounded faster as I stood in the empty room with Bas. Why was this happening to me?“You should probably clean up,” Bas suggested, his voice calm but his expression unreadable.“What?” I asked, confused. “The makeup on your face,” he replied calmly, his expression neutral. ”Oh, right,” I responded, feeling a bit flustered as I walked into the bathroom. With a sigh, I shut the door behind me, locking it with a click. Contemplating if I should leave but that was impossible the weather had changed and right now the rain was pouring heavily.As the could water flowed through my body I couldn't help but wander what Bas was doing right now?

Becca POVIf you had told me that one day I would be locked up in a room with Bas, our hands tangled, our breaths ragged, and our tongues battling in each other’s mouths, I would have called you a liar and probably despised you for life. But here I was, lips locked with Bas. My mind screamed at me to stop, to push him away and leave, but my body refused to listen. It was as if I were under some sort of spell, unable to resist his touch. Bas continued to kiss me, his lips pressed against mine with a newfound sense of urgency. I could feel the passion radiating off of him, as if he had been holding back for so long and was finally giving in to his desires. This was not like the last time we kissed in his apartment; it was more intense, like a flood breaking through a dam that had been holding it back for too long. His lips brushed against mine, teasing and tantalizing as he slowly grazed my lower lip with his teeth. A soft moan escaped me, and I melted into the kiss, our mouths explo

Becca POVI barely got any sleep last night. All I could think about was the way his eyes locked onto mine, his lips pressing against mine, and the sensation of his hands on my body. Ughh. Get your head out of the gutter, Rebecca. I scolded myself. How could things escalate so quickly in just a span of seconds?“Thanks so much for coming to visit,” the elderly Sister said with a smile.“Thank you for having us. I’m really glad I met such lovely people like you,” I replied with a smile“You’re always welcome here,”“And you keep an eye on Bas for me. He tends to be strong-headed, but he’s a softie within,” she added, her gaze flickering to Bas briefly. I couldn’t help but notice the unreadable expression on his face, his jaw set firmly. Something was definitely off. Turning back to the Sister, I mustered a small smile, hoping to mask my unease.“We should get going,” Bas said as he walked to the car.***The car ride was very quiet. Well, I didn’t expect us to be all laughing an
