gaze.
    “I will never leave you again, Brie.” Closing the last remaining distance between them, he took her mouth. It was a hot, possessive kiss that left her toes curling and a soft, fluttering moan tearing from her lips. “I didn’t think it would be so hard, but it was. Brie, spending one moment away from you was hell. I never believed I could love someone so deep and true as I love you. For me, being with you is so much more than just mating heat—it’s love, Brie.”
    She gazed down at her shoes, her eyes welling with unspent tears and her bottom lip quivering. Lifting her chin with his index finger, he searched deep into her eyes.
    He told her, “I love you more than I ever dreamed possible.”
    Choking back the sobs that somersaulted inside her belly, she wrapped her arms around Sebastian. “I love you, too,” she confessed. “That’s why it hurt so much. I feel like you chose to be away from me rather than stay with me.” She met his gaze. “I understand about Mason. I do, but the pain in my heart, mind, and body felt like I was dead anyway—Mason would have actually done me a favor if he killed me.” She placed her hand in front of him, blocking his round-eyed protest. “I’m not saying I would have wanted that, I’m saying being without you...well, I just don’t want to do that again.”
    For a long moment they just held each other. Sebastian promised, “I will never leave you again, Brie. I promise. Should the need arise for me to be apart from you, I’ll just bring you and Jonah with me.”
    Smiling, she said, “Good, because I’m sick of crying at the drop of a hat. I’m tired of feeling like a blubbering little girl who has no control over her emotions.”
    He pressed a tender kiss to her lips. “No more tears. No more being apart from each other. All we need to do now is stop Mason Levi from infecting any more lycans, and we also need to get you practicing using your powers.”
    She arched a brow, “I don’t know how to use my powers.”
    He brushed her hair away from her face, dipped down to kiss her lips, and grinned. “But I do.”

Chapter Five

    Two hours later, Brie sat on the mangled and shredded couch, her foot tapping against the corner of the broken coffee table. Sebastian had nearly destroyed the home she once thought of as the perfect place. A pristine cabin surrounded by majestic lands. Repairing the damages he’d caused was going to take a lot of work.
    Besides broken furniture, the curtains, including the rustic metal rods, had been torn away from the windows, all interior decorations shattered and broken, and nothing looked the same. A bomb exploding would have been less destructive. The sight of all the chaos stole her breath away. What he must’ve gone through to do this kind of damage...she shivered.
    Swallowing hard, her eyes focused on a small pool of blood on the floor near the fireplace. He’d cut himself during his rampage. Earlier when they’d made love, she hadn’t noticed any cuts or scrapes on his body. The supernatural ability to heal was a nice little werewolf trait. One she honestly wouldn’t mind having herself.
    While she was in the bedroom with Sebastian, Jonah had taken the time to straighten up what he could in the living room. The cushion she sat on was the only one left in one piece—still torn, but in one piece. Jonah had cleared away most of the debris from the kitchen floor, creating a path for her to walk around without having to worry she might trip over something. She smiled at his sweetness.
    Brie folded her arms across her chest and studied the brothers as they both took turns picking up broken furniture and debris, effortlessly tossing it out the back door. Neither one made eye contact with the other, but she knew they had been speaking—just not to her. The little shits had probably been yelling their heads off using telepathy. They seemed to tread lightly around her, afraid that hearing them fight would upset her, but honestly
