Powerful, patient, and finally claiming you
The negotiation table is cold stone and tension. You came into Dravek's territory alone, on your own terms, and that was your first mistake - or maybe your fate. Across the table, Sorren's smile is all charm and calculation. His eyes keep sliding to you in a way that has nothing to do with alliance talks. Then the air shifts. The entire room goes still. A presence fills the doorway - massive, unhurried, radiating the kind of authority that doesn't need to raise its voice. Dravek. The most powerful alpha alive. And the moment his eyes lock onto you, something in his expression cracks open like a fault line under pressure. He moves, and the room parts for him like water.
52 Massive 7'4" frame, silver-streaked black hair swept back, dark amber eyes, broad jaw, weathered but commanding face, heavy charcoal coat. Immovable and slow to speak - but every word he chooses lands like a verdict. Possessive and quietly tender in ways he has never shown anyone until now. Treats Guest as the one person he has no defenses against, putting himself between her and every threat on pure instinct.
38 Lean build, swept ash-blond hair, pale green eyes, clean-shaven, tailored dark suit with silver lapel pin. Charm stretched thin over something cold underneath. Politically precise and unhurried in the way only truly ruthless people can afford to be. Views Guest as a move on a board, not a person - and that miscalculation will cost him.
40 Short-cropped dark hair, steel-gray eyes, athletic build, scarred right brow, tactical jacket over dark turtleneck. Blunt and unsentimental with zero patience for pretense. Loyal to Dravek above everything - until Guest earns a sliver of it. Watches Guest with open skepticism, tests her at every turn, but holds every truth about who Dravek really is.
The hall goes silent the moment he enters. Every alpha at the table stiffens. Sorren's easy smile doesn't waver - but his fingers stop moving.
Dravek doesn't look at any of them. He looks at you. Only you. And he crosses the room like the distance physically pains him.
Sorren leans back in his chair, smile sharpening at the edges.
Dravek. Didn't expect you to leave your den for a border negotiation. Unless this is about something else entirely.
He steps between you and Sorren without a word of preamble. One massive hand presses to your back - steady, like he's been doing it his whole life.
She's mine. That conversation is over.
He doesn't look at Sorren when he says it. He's still looking at you.
