"Call off the divorce?" I echoed, shaking my head slowly as my amusement faded into disbelief. "You can't be serious." Noah's jaw clenched, his gaze hardening. "I am completely serious, Hannah. This divorce could jeopardize everything for Nightcrest-our chances of hosting the Lunar Festival, our alliances with other packs, our reputation... our entire standing as a pack." I shot to my feet at his words-my silk robe swirling around my ankles as I whirled to face him fully. "Are you honestly tellingthe only reason you want to stop this is for political gain?"

I strode "And pray, tell me, how staying in a miserable sham of a marriage would be good for Nightcrest? forward, jabbing my finger into his chest. "Besides, you could just marry Zoe once I'm gone; it won't be your reputation that will suffer, thanks to you and your star-crossed lover." Before I could blink, Noah's hand whipped out to clamp around my wrist-not hard enough to hurt, but enough to pinin place as his tall form crowded over me.

Something dark and feral flickered across Noah's expression then-there and gone once again in a heartbeat. When he spoke, it was through gritted teeth, each word measured and precise. "If it's more sex that you want, I'll take you to bed every night and have you screaming my nuntil dawn." White-hot rage lanced throughin an instant, replacing any hint of desire that was left in my body.

"Is this what you want?" I spat, gesturing toward my naked body with bitter disdain. "Because you should know by now, Noah, more sex isn't anywhere near enough for me. Not anymore.
