Forgiving Levi – Tessa Stone

The forest around us is calm—tall pines dusted with snow, their branches arching overhead. The cold air is sharp and fresh with each breath. It’s quiet, the kind of stillness that feels untouched. Skylar points out different trees and landmarks as we go, her energy constant. I nod along, trying to engage but mostly letting her enthusiasm show. Kane and Gabriel walk behind the carriage, their eyes constantly scanning the surroundings.

Occasionally, they glance at me with quick smiles or slight nods but stay focused and quiet. So these are my brothers now. Well, they seem a lot nicer than Shawn ever was. He absolutely hated that he had a sister and spent every day making sure that I knew it. But these two in front of me… they look like they’d tear the world down for me.

Their protective stance, the way they keep guard over me like I’m the most precious jewel. The way I have an entourage of the most loving people surrounding me. Maybe, just maybe, Wintermoon isn’t so bad after all. Maybe, just maybe, I can have what Skylar has with Micah. I grit my teeth and frown as I think about it. That would require me to forgive Levi. I’m not ready to do that just yet. OceanofPDF.com Levi s I near the market, a twinge of pain ripples through me at the thought of leaving.

The wagon grinds to a halt, wooden wheels groaning against the icy crust of snow. Before it settles, I’m already moving to the back, my bare feet pressing into the fresh, powdery frost. Nia’s already at the edge, her small hands clutching the rim. Gabriel steps forward to steady her, Kane close by, but she bats them away, her face set. “No, I’ve got it. You don’t have to baby me,” she says, her voice sharp with irritation.

My wolf whines inside me—if only she understood. Every instinct in my body screams to protect her, cherish her, worship the ground she walks on.

OceanofPDF.com A MESSAGE TO MY READERS A quick note to my readers: Forgiving Levi is filled with raw emotions and doesn’t really have a traditional happy ending. It’s more of an explanation for why Kane was so overbearing in Taming Kane—because Nia’s story is heartbreaking.

At best, it’s a “happy for now,” and even that feels uncertain. The second part of their story, which I’ll start working on this weekend, will bring their happy ending. I’ll include a list of content warnings, and as always, I encourage you to protect your peace while reading. If you’re new here, this story takes place before Taming Kane. However, Nia doesn’t officially appear until Claiming Gabriel in the Fated Mates series. This is their backstory. OceanofPDF.com This book is dedicated to all of my amazing Patrons on Patreon who supported me and cheered me on throughout this journey to finish Nia and Levi’s story.

You all know how much I complained about writing this book —how challenging it was for me. But you never stopped rooting for me, encouraging me to push through and finish. Honestly, I couldn’t have done it without you. This book is for you. Thank you so much for your constant love and support. http://patreon.com/authortessastone OceanofPDF.com 1 Levi One Year Before Taming Kane K This is a prequel, the backstory of Nia and Levi- Part One ane glares at me as I pull a few raspberries from the small bag in my pocket and sit on one of the tables, my floor plans spread out beside me.

The bakery—the final piece of the town’s market—is nearly finished. But Kane’s on edge, restless. He wants out. He wants to hunt down his mate, and his wolf is getting harder for him to control with each passing day. I get it. I want the same for myself. My own wolf has been clawing at me, but I’ve managed to keep him in check.

Kane? Not so much. He’s not built for the slow, methodical grind of construction— it’s pushing him to his limit. Carpentry’s more his thing, working on smaller, solitary projects. He’s fine as part of the pack, but this? This is wearing him thin. “One night,” he says suddenly, the words sharper than they need to be. “Let me go on patrol with Tristian. Just something to put my wolf at ease.” I chew on a handful of raspberries, studying him as I think it over.

His green eyes flick at mine, desperate. The edge in his voice tells me he’s hanging by a thread. As alpha, I’ve been forced to make difficult choices for this pack.
