He kissed the top of my head before he shut the door, leaving me alone with my thoughts. Each hour I was alone, my thoughts were getting worse.

LUCIEN
After transforming in front of Katarina, my body felt like it was on fire. It was sore, my ribs hurt and I was feeling sluggish. By the time I had worked through the pain and got up, Aeon was walking towards me looking exactly how I felt.
I was worried about Katarina and immediately felt for our bond; it hadn’t been severed. Aeon and I discussed what had happened, everything from Katarina and I making up, to me staying human longer than usual. But that night like clockwork we changed back to our beasts.
The next few days I looked for Kit Kat, but she was nowhere to be found. Her feelings were so chaotic that I couldn’t tell what was going on. Each day made me more and more desperate to talk to her. My beast was pushing me to find her, our bond getting more unstable the longer we were apart.
A week had gone by and I had enough. I begged Aeon to help me find her, while I went to go talk to Zev. We hadn’t seen him either, making me wonder if he was the reason she had disappeared.
Did they mate?
Not that it made me jealous, but if they did, they should have said something. I had pictured sharing her for a while, but now I didn’t know how I felt about it.
I started looking for him in his room, thinking that was probably where he was hiding out. Aeon and I never came up here, it was a painful reminder that we almost mated a women who fucked us over.
The last time Aeon had been up here, he said Zev destroyed the room but it looked like he had been working on it again. The room was bare with a new nightstand and what looked like the start of a frame for the bed stood in the middle of the room.
As much as I wanted to hate this room, now it could be our room. We could all rebuild it and once the spell was broken we could live here. Hope bloomed in my chest at the possibility that our dark times were behind us.
It was time to move forward, all we needed was for Zev to get on board. I actually hoped they mated or did something, it would make things so much easier. Going back downstairs I thought about going to the small barn we had out in the back that I knew he used for work.
Lost in his thoughts, he passed me without even looking at me.
“Zev,” I called out.
He didn’t turn around when I called out for him again. So I followed him until I was able to reach for his shoulder.
“Hey man, you ok?” I asked.
He bared his teeth at me.
“What do you want?”
“What happened?” I asked, noticing he looked pretty bad. He had darkness under his eyes making him look haggard and like he had lost weight.
“Leave me alone,” he growled.
“Zev, what happened?” I grabbed his arm before he ran.
“I said leave me alone!” He was breathing hard, his nostrils flared as he held back his shift.
“Come on, Zev, I just want to know if you are ok.” I held my hands up so he knew I wasn’t threatening.
“Ok? I’m surprised you still want to know if I’m ok,” he laughed.
“What are you talking about?”
“She didn’t tell you?” He looked at me suspiciously.
“Tell me what? What the hell did you do to her?” I snapped, realizing he looked guilty or maybe I was hoping he did.
“Wow, I expected her to run to you immediately.” He looked shocked but he smirked.
“What did you do to her?” I got into his face when he didn’t elaborate.
