His scent hit me first snapping me from my thoughts. Glancing away from the window, I looked back and saw him. He was less buff but still well built. His hair was black instead of brown now. But I knew his smell better than anyone else.

"Jay" I said barely recognizing him.

The piercing on his eyebrow had me furrowing my eyebrows. His whole demeanor was different, he didn't look like the playful guy I knew. He looked grown and if back then he looked like a bad boy hell now he looked dangerous. He looked like a new person.

"New look?" I asked tilting my head in question.

"You could say that I - you're here with him?" He asked as his voice went flat.

It didn't take a genius to know he was referring to Tian. I'm sure his wolf was stirring for having a royal blood of a vampire on these lands. Looking into his eyes I could see them shine bright for a couple seconds before they froze and turn to a dull blue. His face then turned void of any emotion. I saw his reluctance to speak, his whole body looked tense. Distant yet still cordial towards me.

"I got some things to do but do enjoy your visiting time " Justin said before turning away.

"Actually. I want to talk before you leave, you don't mind- do you?" I asked nervously.

"I have really important things to do" he said lowly.

"Only a few minutes please" I said sadly.

This was so odd, speaking to Justin now. He never dismissed me or tried to brush me off. He turned to me and regarded me for a couple seconds. I could see him thinking over on what to say to me.

"What do you want to talk about ? You have ignored me for a couple days now" he asked assessing me.

I looked away from his eyes, I didn't know what to say. I couldn't tell him I almost died being away. I hadn't even been able to talk to Tian about it and he helped me heal. It's so weird to think I almost died two years ago and now just a couple of days ago I actually died for a minute.

"Some things happened and I felt- tell you later. I can't now. I was starting to feel like maybe I was better and I needed to come back. However now that I'm here it turns out I don't, I just wanted to pretend it was okay. I mean. Hell, can you believe it been two years since I been normal? Every time I try to tell myself that I can handle everything I been through... some new shit happens" I said and turn away.

Looking at the marble floor I felt myself want to cry from frustration. I was finally letting things fall apart. I'm not strong emotionally. I can't take this.

"I can't have you tugging at my heart yet be with someone else. I can read you Jane"Justin whispered as his arms circled around my waist.

I stilled at the feel of him against me. His smell quickly engulfing all around me. This was Jay, the one I had been around so long. The one that I had fallen so crazily in love. The one that I might still be completely in love with deep inside. My body heated at the feel of his body pressed against me.

"My presence makes you heat up. I can feel you tensing up and relaxing all together. The way my breath on your neck makes you feel good. I know you want to hold me and sink back to my embrace" he whispered sensually in my ear.

I turned in his arms and locked eyes with him. Jay lurked close but Justin was in full control. I couldn't continue to have such a intimate connection with Justin and Tian at the same time. But my heart always moved whenever he was around. I couldn't deny that every time Justin and Tian were in the same room my heart focused more on Justin.
