~ JESSE ~
"Just breathe, Jesse," Maya said quietly. She sounded like she was grieving- urging me not to give up.
But I could barely inhale, and when I did, my lungs didn't seem to draw oxygen from the air. I was heaving.
"Why… why would he d-do that? Why? He promised me he'd never… wait, has he done this before?!" I was horrified and snapped my head around, staring at her wide-eyed and pleading.
It was only a small relief when she shook her head.
"Then why?!" I shrieked.
Maya sighed, her face so sad for me that it made me feel even worse.
"He was… proving to everyone that you're under his control. It must be a response to the Selection, but… but I don't understand why he would go to these lengths. To debase you like that-"
"So it's not just some fucking wolf kink?"
