That helped a little.

“I really do love my children,” he said, touching Callen’s tan cheek. “I’m sorry it took me this long to make amends. I hope I have time.”

Callen said nothing.

Honestly, he hoped one thing too.

That they all had time.

This place was a hot mess, and he couldn’t wait to get the hell home.

FAR.

FROM.

HERE.

Thursday

After Midnight

Rayna Running Wolf’s

Home

For Caspian Carter, everything was out of control the second she put her mouth on his.

While he considered himself a very in-control kind of a guy, all of a sudden, that was anything but the case.

This was a spiral, and he felt like he was falling into the deepest quagmire.

Never had he felt like this before.

In fact, he was pretty sure he was never going to feel this again.

Rayna was in control, and he was here for the ride. Normally, he always felt like he had to initiate this kind of moment with a woman, but the second she jumped up, wrapping her legs around his hips, he was hers.

All of the fears, panic, and the worry was instantly gone, and now, he was able to live in that moment.

With.

Her.

When she slowly broke the kiss, he stared into her eyes, and he struggled to speak, but this time for a million other reasons.

Lust being one of them.

“Are you sure?” he whispered, barely able to get the words out.

She knew why he was asking.

He was leaving.

A part of her wanted to get him to stay, but she knew that this was life.

People came.
