Chapter Fourteen: Noah

I flinched at the sound of the slamming door. I should’ve known it would come to this eventually. Dani wouldn’t just let me string her along without making a decision. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the decision she wanted. And now it seemed like I’d lost any chance I’d ever had of being with her. As if there had ever really been a chance to begin with.

There won’t be any more conversations or situations like this one in the future, she’d said.

This is your last chance, was what she meant. And I’d just let her walk away.

For once, my beast wasn’t raging at me for watching her walk out the door. For once, he was as conflicted as I was. In most cases, he knew what he wanted, what I really wanted, deep down. But this was a matter of two opposing instincts. My loyalty to my pack had always been the most important thing in my mind. It was what I was taught and what was in my blood: always protect your family, always put them above all else. On the other hand, if there was any one thing that could come before them, it had to be the most important individual person in my life, my mate.

If I was completely honest with myself, I knew Dani was the one. I could meet every shifter girl on the planet and none of them would ever be what she was to me. Despite all reason, she was the only one my inner wolf wanted, the only one I was drawn to. So shouldn’t my loyalty to her be able to override my loyalty to Jared’s rules?

Not if it meant putting the others in danger. I would spend my whole life alone before I would put any of my pack at risk. And I couldn’t be with Dani without telling her my secret, my whole family’s secret; if I let her get that close, it would come out eventually, one way or another. And if the information got into the wrong hands somehow, if my pack was threatened because of me, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.

There was just no way to reconcile the two and have both. There was no way for me to be a Wright and be with Dani at the same time. Some part of me had always known that, but having it thrown in my face—after Dani had said she wanted me too—stung even more than usual. And I was only hurting her by trying to keep her attention when I knew it couldn’t work.

God, I’m such an ass.
