As he rejected me, I retaliated by cutting off all contact with the pack… <br /> Chapter 1: Ayla<br /> “Ayla, is dinner ready? No more delay. Kylee and Theo will be soon here!”<br /> “Yes, mom.” I sighed hearing my mother's impatient urging.<br /> Kylee is my little sister, and Theo is her mate as well as our future Alpha. It is said that they had been together for over a year, and today is the first Kylee has brought her mate home. I was so happy for her.<br /> Our current Alpha, Alpha Torin, was a good leader, a fair leader, and a good man. I knew he had a son, but I had never met him before.<br /> But I had heard that his son, Theo, was promising to be just as good an Alpha as his father. So I really couldn’t have been more relieved that he was my sister’s mate. She would be properly looked after and taken care of, and she would be happy.<br /> I was pulling the chicken out of the oven when I saw my mother rushing past me, excitedly shouting towards the door, “They're here.”<br /> After my father passed away, my mother had become an alcoholic. But she always managed to look presentable in front of Kylee. For example, today, she was not only dressed neatly, but even used mouthwash.<br /> <br /> I was still transferring the food when I heard the front door open and the squeals of my mother and sister as they embraced. I finished my task and moved the dishes to the dining room table that was already set neatly. I smiled at my presentation and excitedly hurried to the living room. <br /> <br /> I froze at the threshold. A scent overwhelmed my senses, causing my stomach to knot and my heart to race. <br /> <br /> The tall, broad man standing next to my sister turned toward me and we locked eyes. <br /> <br /> Mate.<br /> <br /> I practically gagged trying to stifle the word from slipping from my mouth. <br /> <br /> What was happening?<br /> <br /> This was my sister’s mate. <br /> <br /> Not mine. <br /> <br /> This man was fated to Kylee. <br /> <br /> So why was I having this reaction?<br /> <br /> Better question…<br /> <br /> Why did HE seem to be having the same reaction?<br /> <br /> His eyes were wide, pupils dilated, and they held my gaze with a vice-like grip as he, too, seemed frozen to where he stood. <br /> <br /> Dasha, my wolf, bounced excitedly in my head, recognizing him and his wolf just as I was. It took a minute for her to understand the situation, but once she did, she started whimpering in the back of my mind.<br /> <br /> This couldn’t be happening. <br /> <br /> What was happening?<br /> <br /> I forced myself to address the situation as a whole. Fine, this was happening. Now, what is the best way to handle the situation? I wasn’t going to break my sister’s heart. Absolutely not. I wouldn’t let him either. Not right now. We’ll just get through dinner, and I’ll find a way to speak with him in private later. <br /> <br /> I cleared my throat and plastered a smile on my face.<br /> <br /> “Kylee, I’m so excited you’re home,” I said, opening my arms so she could jump into them like she had since she was little.<br /> <br /> “I’ve missed you, sis,” she said. <br /> <br /> “I’ve missed you, too,” I said quietly. <br /> <br /> We separated, and she turned to the male behind her. “Theo, this is my sister, Ayla. Ayla, this is my mate, Theo.”<br /> <br /> Theo’s hands were clenched into fists, and he forced a tight-jawed smile toward me. At least I was better at faking it them him. Geesh. <br /> <br /> I nodded to him with a broad smile. I knew it didn’t reach my eyes, but at least Ma and Kylee wouldn’t notice. <br /> <br /> “It’s lovely to meet you, Theo,” I said. “Dinner is ready in the dining room. Why don’t you guys go take a seat, and I’ll be right there. I need to tend to dessert first.”<br /> <br /> “Don’t take too long,” Kylee said brightly. “We have some big news, and I don’t think I can wait much longer.”<br /> <br /> “I promise I’ll be right there,” I assured her as I rubbed her shoulder. <br /> <br /> Kylee grabbed Ma by the arm and led her to the dining room. Theo followed a few steps behind. He had to pass me to get through. Right as he approached, I turned my body to ensure we didn’t touch. He paused in front of me for a moment. I looked up to meet his eyes.<br /> <br /> There was anger, confusion, desire, and possibly even hurt reflecting in his eyes that I couldn’t help but notice were the color of honey. He had questions. I subtly shook my head at him. Hoping and silently begging that he knew we couldn’t do this here. <br /> <br /> The sound of Kylee’s laugh from the other room made me jump and then quickly retreat to the kitchen. I grabbed the homemade cheesecake from the fridge and set it on the counter for later. <br /> <br /> I listened to the others conversing in the next room and took several deep breaths. I felt a lump start to form in my throat and quickly pushed it down. This wasn’t the time to cry. <br /> <br /> I was almost to the dining room when I heard the last part of what Kylee was saying, and again, I was left frozen at the threshold.<br /> <br /> “… our mating ceremony is in three months.” Kylee looked up at me. “Oh, Ayla, I’m sorry. I just couldn’t hold back any longer. Aren’t you happy for us?”<br /> <br /> I put the same fake smile back on. “Of course I’m happy for you,” I said. “You deserve the best.”<br /> <br /> I took my seat at the table, ignoring the fact that I was left sitting directly across from Theo. His eyes were boring into me, and my face felt like it was on fire. I started dishing out food and passing plates. I didn’t say much over dinner. Instead, I just listened to Kylee and Ma talk about all the ideas they had for the mating ceremony. Theo didn’t say much either but slowly started to do a better job hiding his discomfort with the situation. <br /> <br /> It took everything to ignore the touches they shared, pushing down the jealousy that kept surging through me. <br /> After dinner, while they were still talking, I made an excuse to slip out through the back door.<br /> <br /> I stood on the porch and took several deep breaths. I released a string of curses.<br /> “What is happening? Why is this happening? This ISN’T happening,” I whispered with the force of a yell. <br /> <br /> ‘Our mate.’ Dasha insisted.<br /> <br /> “No, he’s not,” I said back to her. “He’s Kylee’s. There must be some kind of mistake.”<br /> <br /> All of a sudden, I stiffened as a mouthwatering scent hit my nose. I knew who was standing behind me. <br /> <br /> Chapter 2: Theo<br /> I fought against the urges her scent was influencing as I stalked up to her. But more importantly, the urge to grab her and take her against the nearest tree. My wolf was going crazy about the idea, but he would learn fast that that was never going to happen. <br /> <br /> I wouldn’t accept her. <br /> <br /> Knowing what I knew about her, that would never happen. <br /> <br /> She turned to face me. <br /> <br /> “This won’t happen,” I spat out before she had a chance to speak. <br /> Her jaw clenched, and her silvery-gray eyes stared into mine for a few short moments. But I couldn’t read a thing behind them. <br /> <br /> “I absolutely agree,” she stated evenly. <br /> <br /> My wolf growled and snarled inside me, demanding to know what I was doing. I pushed down the hurt that hit me when she didn’t fight me. Her reaction just proved why this needed to be done. I could never be with someone so cold and self-absorbed as her. There was no way someone like her could ever be my Luna. <br /> <br /> ‘Don’t know her.’ Kieran yelled in my head. <br /> <br /> I knew enough. <br /> <br /> “Kylee is my mate. Not you. I, Theo Arden, future Alpha of the Greytooth Pack, reject you, Ayla Garner, as my mate and Luna.” Kieran was snapping his teeth, pushing to take control to stop this.<br /> <br /> “I, Ayla Garner, accept your rejection and relinquish my claim as your mate and Luna.”<br /> <br /> My wolf howled in pain. A pain that was mirrored within me as it felt like my heart was being ripped apart. It was the bond breaking. Releasing me from the tie that bound us together.<br /> She stood there like nothing happened. <br /> <br /> How could she stand there like nothing had happened?<br /> <br /> She really didn’t feel anything, did she? It was so easy for her to let us go.<br /> <br /> ‘Mate wants me.’<br /> <br /> I grimaced. He meant her wolf. Her wolf wanted mine. He could sense her. She was even denying her wolf. I couldn’t stand it anymore. I needed to get away from her. <br /> <br /> I stormed back into the house, returning to the woman the goddess should have made my mate. I returned to the dining room to find her mother and her still deep in conversation. I was grateful she hadn’t seemed to notice my absence or the change in my mood. It wasn’t surprising. She was excited about seeing her family and sharing the news with them. <br /> <br /> I had been, too, until her sister walked into the room. The scent had engulfed me, driving me to seek out the source like a lifeline. When I saw her, her beauty took my breath away. She was petit but strong, with long legs and perfect curves. She had a mass of caramel-blonde hair that cascaded over her shoulders, framing a face with plump lips and intense gray eyes that shined green in the light. I couldn’t help but want her. I recognized who she was to me immediately. <br /> <br /> But then I noticed her narrow nose and soft jawline were familiar. Her fair skin had a sun-kissed glow that I had always found attractive. Once I realized she had similar features to Kylee, I knew this was her sister, Ayla. <br /> <br /> Kylee had told me on many occasions how her sister had changed after the death of their father. She was there for Kylee at first, but in less than a year, she started spending all her time away from home. She ended up dropping out of the private school her parents had worked so hard to send her to. Eventually, Kylee lost track of what she was doing with her life. <br /> <br /> Kylee was there for her when she was around, trying to be supportive. But she wasn’t the sister she used to love. What bothered her most was Ayla’s treatment of their mother. Ayla still lived in the house with her, but Kylee always got the impression that helping their mother was just a burden. She worried their mother would be left with no one to take care of her, and she wasn’t in the best of health anymore. <br /> <br /> “I have an idea,” I interrupted. They both looked up at me expectantly. “Why doesn’t your mother come to stay with us for a while? At least until the ceremony? We have the room in the packhouse, and I’m sure you and my mother would appreciate the extra input.”<br /> <br /> Both their faces lit up.<br /> <br /> “Really? We can do that?” Kylee said happily. <br /> <br /> “Of course,” I said with a smile. <br /> <br /> “Thank you.”<br /> <br /> Kylee jumped up from the table and threw her arms around me, kissing me sweetly. I ignored the growls coming from Kieran. Seeing their reaction told me I had made the exact right decision. Despite what the burning in my chest told me. <br /> <br /> This was who I was supposed to be with. Not Ayla.<br /> <br /> ‘Keep saying. Maybe believe.’<br /> <br /> I told him to shut up, and he retreated into the back of my mind, cutting himself off from me. <br /> <br /> He would get over it. Once the bond was completely severed, he would understand this was the right thing for us and the pack.<br /> <br /> Chapter 3: Ayla<br /> I had managed to get myself together enough to rejoin my family. The pain that seared through me from Theo’s rejection and my subsequent acceptance almost brought me to my knees. It took all of my strength to keep my body from shaking, praying he didn’t notice the blood coming from my palms. I had clenched my fists so hard trying to stay on my feet that I broke the skin.<br /> <br /> When he finally left, I released the sob that was the only thing capable of coming out of my mouth. But I didn’t let the tears fall. Not yet. They couldn’t know. <br /> <br /> So, I steadied my breathing and went back into my house. I was surprised to find that Kylee and Ma weren’t in the dining room anymore. They weren’t in the living room either. But Theo was. <br /> <br /> “They’re in your mother’s room packing,” he said coldly.<br /> <br /> “Packing?” What was he talking about?<br /> <br /> He stepped closer to me, lowering his voice. “I think it’s best that you keep your distance from Kylee for a while. We don’t want her finding out about this. But I know she’ll want her mother to be a part of the ceremony planning. So she’s coming back with us.”<br /> <br /> I felt like he just slapped me in the face. As if I would ever tell her. That’s why I was doing this. So that I wouldn’t break my baby sister’s heart. I gave him what he wanted, and now he was going to keep me from my family?<br /> <br /> Dasha was confused and in pain, whimpering in my head because she didn’t understand how he could be so cruel to us. <br /> <br /> “If that’s what you think is best,” I said to Theo through gritted teeth. <br /> <br /> “Kylee,” he called out, not breaking eye contact. “Let’s get going.”<br /> <br /> My sister came prancing into the room. “Already?”<br /> <br /> “It’s getting late. Let’s head to the hotel for the night. We’ll swing by in the morning to pick up your mother.”<br /> <br /> “Okay,” she said brightly before turning to me. “What about you, Ayla? You’re coming with, too, right?”<br /> <br /> I opened my mouth to speak, but Theo decided to answer for me. <br /> <br /> “We were just talking about that. Ayla has some things going on with work and can’t get away.”<br /> <br /> I gave her a tight smile. “Yes, I’m sorry. But I will try to come out there as soon as I can.”<br /> <br /> “Oh, okay, I understand. But I’ll make sure we have a room ready for you whenever you can come.”<br /> <br /> “Of course. I can’t wait,” I said, my heart breaking again, knowing Theo wouldn’t allow me to be there with her. <br /> <br /> We all said our goodbyes, and they left. Ma was still standing at the window watching them drive off when I went to clean up the dishes in the kitchen. She finally came in behind me and started opening another bottle of wine. We had gone through four during dinner already. And I barely touched my glass. <br /> <br /> “Ma, you’ve had enough for the night,” I said calmly.<br /> <br /> “Oh, come on. It’s a celebration,” Ma said. “It’s not every day you find out your baby is going to be a Luna.”<br /> <br /> “Ma, you can celebrate more tomorrow. You need to finish packing,” I said, gently taking the bottle from her hand. “I’m sure Kylee and Theo will be here first thing in the morning.”<br /> <br /> “We can celebrate together while you help me pack,” she said, grabbing the bottle back from me. “Then I’ll help you pack.”<br /> <br /> I winced. This wasn’t going to end well. “I’m not coming, Ma.”<br /> <br /> She stopped with the glass halfway to her lips. “What do you mean you’re not coming?” she asked with a pout. “You have to be there. Kylee is going to be mated. I told her we would help pay for the ceremony.”<br /> <br /> I winced again. She meant me. I would be helping pay for the ceremony. Ma didn’t have a penny to her name.<br /> <br /> “This is a big deal. Don’t be so selfish, Ayla.”<br /> <br /> Her words stung, but they weren’t unexpected. This was kind of the norm when she got like this. I know she didn’t really mean it. At least, she wouldn’t mean it when she was sober. I got her into her bedroom and set her on the bed. I changed her into her nightgown and tucked her in. <br /> <br /> She was asleep in seconds. I hurried through the rest of her packing. Stuffing two large suitcases as full as I could before carrying them out to the living room. Then I locked the front door, finished the last of the dishes, and slipped out into the backyard.<br /> <br /> I stripped off my clothes as I headed for the forest, desperate to get under its protective shadows. As soon as I passed the treeline, I shifted, taking off at full speed. I let Dasha feel all the pain. I didn’t try to hold her back anymore. <br /> <br /> We would mourn the loss of our fated mate. The loss of the one person who was supposed to see us for who we were. The one person who was supposed to always put us first, without demands or expectations. We would mourn the loss of never getting to experience that.<br /> But we wouldn’t mourn him.<br /> <br /> We ran until we could barely breathe. Until Dasha stopped at the edge of our pond — our place of solace — and let out a heartwrenching howl into the night air. Shifting at the end as she retreated back into my mind, out of reach to heal her broken heart, while I let the torrent of tears finally fall.<br /> <br /> I walked into the water, curling into myself as the sobs wracked my body, intensifying the burn that was still there from our bond being ripped from my heart.<br /> <br /> I submerged myself completely, washing my body clean of Theo, the mate bond, and every dream of finding my soulmate. <br /> <br /> In the midst of this pain I drifted off to sleep.<br /> The next morning.<br /> When I made it back to the house, there was no one there. My mother had been taken away by them.<br /> I was standing in an empty room in an empty house. The silence was deafening. And it all came crashing down. I sank to my knees, begging the goddess to just let it all go away, just for a little while. I just wanted to feel numb.<br /> <br /> I lost track of how long I sat in that spot, staring without seeing. I didn’t even know Zeff was there until I felt him grip my arms.<br /> <br /> “Ayls, what happened? What’s wrong?” he asked, brushing hair out of my face, forcing me to look at him. “Ayla, what is going on?”<br /> <br /> “I found my mate,” I said, the corner of my mouth tipping up mockingly. “He’s scheduled to be mated to my sister.”<br /> <br /> “What?” Zeff exclaimed, anger and concern twisting his handsome features. <br /> <br /> Zeff was a good man. He had been there for me when no one else was. He was the only person who knew everything I went through. And here he was, listening to me tell him about meeting Theo, the mating ceremony, and my rejection. Why couldn’t he have been my mate? He should have been. <br /> <br /> “Come on,” he said, lifting me up. “You’re coming to stay with me.”<br /> <br /> I didn’t protest. The goddess had given me this one little blessing. I was numb. Zeff held me up by my waist and led me out to his car. He tucked me into the passenger seat and disappeared into the house again, only to emerge a few minutes later with a duffel bag in hand. <br /> <br /> He pulled out and drove us the twenty minutes to his house. Just like before, he helped me inside, this time sitting me on the big, comfy leather couch in his living room.<br /> <br /> He came and sat next to me, putting an arm over my shoulder and pulling me into him. I let myself relax some. This was the first thing since Theo walked into my life that felt normal, felt comfortable. He leaned his head on mine, rubbing his fingers along my arm. <br /> <br /> “Ayla. You’re going to deal with this — we’re going to deal with this together. Screw him, okay. He’s a dirtbag. You deserve so much better than some fool who doesn’t see how incredible you are.”<br /> <br /> I wanted to roll my eyes, but it wasn’t just about him. <br /> <br /> “He took my family, Zeff. I would have gotten over him just rejecting me because of Kylee. At least she would be safe and happy.”<br /> <br /> “No. They either treat you like a servant or a bank. They don’t care what their actions do to you as long as they keep getting what they want."<br /> <br /> “Zeff...But they were my family” I wanted to contradict him, but I knew he was right.<br /> <br /> “Get over him.” He took a step toward me, reaching up to hold my chin. “He’s not the only one who can take care of you, Ayla. He may be foolish enough not to want you, but I’m not.”<br /> <br /> My breath caught in my throat. He had told me about his feelings before, but we both avoided going down that road with each other. We knew we could find our fated mates at any time, and we didn’t want to deny each other that. <br /> <br /> “Move in here with me, Ayls,” Zeff said. “There’s nothing stopping us now.”<br /> <br /> “Zeff, you still have a mate out there somewhere.”<br /> <br /> “Ayla, stop. I’m thirty-four and well-traveled. If I was going to find her, I would have long before now. We both know that.” <br /> <br /> Suddenly his lips were on mine. I was shocked, but mostly because it felt good. I felt wanted. I kissed him back, not wanting to give that feeling up. I leaned into him — until Dasha came charging to the forefront, growling and snarling that someone who wasn’t our mate was touching us. <br /> <br /> I ripped myself from Zeff’s embrace. Breathing heavily, the pain of the severed bond renewed. I clutched my chest. <br /> <br /> “Ayla.” <br /> <br /> “I can’t. The bond. It’s still there. It hasn’t faded yet.”<br /> <br /> Zeff pulled me into his arms. “Okay. It’s okay. We can wait. We’ll take it slow.”<br /> <br /> I rested my head on his chest. “Okay.”<br /> <br /> He squeezed me tighter. I still didn’t know if we could make this work, but I wanted to try. <br /> <br /> I stayed with the Zeff, and it was quiet. Until a week later, when Theo burst in.<br /> <br /> Chapter 4: Theo<br /> It had been a week since I had gone home with Kylee. Seven days and a hundred miles away, and the bond was still there. The burning in my chest wouldn’t go away. I didn’t understand and it was annoying. <br /> <br /> More important is Kieran. He had spent the whole week giving me the silent treatment, except when Kylee was around. Then all he did was growl and snarl. It was getting exhausting. <br /> <br /> I had taken to holing up in my office most of the time. I didn’t want to snap at Kylee, or her mother, which had become hard to avoid by the third day. I was glad I had a good reason for me being so busy all of a sudden. <br /> <br /> Alpha was sick. He was diagnosed with a progressive disease almost a year ago. So, he decided it was time to hand the title down to me. It wasn’t official yet. We were planning on making the change at the same time as Kylee’s and my mating ceremony. Actually, that’s why I decided to make Kylee my official mate. Alpha’s were always stronger with a strong Luna by their side. With the circumstances of my father’s abdication, our pack needed to be as strong as possible. <br /> <br /> But there was still a lot to take care of and a lot I had to learn about being an Alpha before that time. So it wasn’t hard to convince her that it was the stress that was causing me to be distant. <br /> <br /> But this morning, I'm driving myself to Kylee's house. I promised to help her retrieve her mother's necklace, which she wanted to wear during our mating ceremony.<br /> <br /> In addition, if I couldn’t completely sever the bond between me and Ayla, Kieran could end up taking control and stop me from marking Kylee.<br /> So, once I got the necklace, I’d reject Ayla again, making sure it stuck this time, and I’d go back home.<br /> <br /> When I pulled up to the house, something twisted in my gut. When I step into the house, her invigorating scent of oranges and cloves invaded my nostrils, but it wasn’t nearly as strong as it should have been.<br /> I realize Ayla wasn't home.<br /> Instead, there was another smell in Ayla's room.<br /> The scent was male. It was faint, he wasn’t here long, but mixed in with the distinctive scent of my mate, I could pick it out anywhere. From the trail, it seemed as if he was the one who packed up her things.<br /> <br /> I stormed out of the house. Tossing the jewelry box in the passenger seat, I took my phone out and searched for the number for the publishing house Kylee said Ayla worked for.<br /> I got another address that Ayla had added to her personal profile from the receptionist.<br /> <br /> I followed the GPS to the address, pulling into the drive of a large, two-story house in a nice neighborhood. Parking half on the lawn, I didn’t even close the car door before taking the front steps two at a time. <br /> <br /> I banged on the door until I heard movement inside. A man opened it. It was the male I smelled in Ayla’s room. Before he could say anything, I lunged at him, my hands grabbing the front of his shirt and practically lifting him off the ground.<br /> <br /> “What have you done with her? I smell her all over you. Where is she?”<br /> <br /> He pushed me off him, his eyes glaring at me with recognition and disdain.<br /> <br /> “You must be Theo.”<br /> <br /> “What is going on?” Ayla’s voice floated down to me as she ran down the stairs. She froze halfway down the moment she laid eyes on me. “What are you doing here?”<br /> <br /> A silk robe hung open, revealing the shorts and cut-off tank top she wore underneath, her caramel-colored hair flowing loosely around her shoulders. She was gorgeous. And clearly not in distress. I took a step toward her as my rage grew.<br /> <br /> “What are you doing here?” I spat back. <br /> <br /> “That’s none of your concern,” the male interjected.<br /> <br /> I turned on him again, a rumbling growl emanating from my chest, my claws extending. I was ready to rip his throat out. <br /> <br /> “Stop,” Ayla yelled, coming the rest of the way down the stairs and stepping between the two of us. “Zeff, go to work.”<br /> <br /> “Absolutely not. I’m not leaving you here with him. Not in the state he’s in.”<br /> <br /> “I would never hurt her.” Kieran was ready to burst from my skin. How dare this dirtbag think we would ever lay a hand on her.<br /> <br /> “We both know that’s crap.”<br /> <br /> “Zeff, I said go.” Her expression softened a little. “I’ll call you later.”<br /> <br /> She would. <br /> <br /> The Zeff guy shot me another hate-filled look before exiting out the open front door. We stood in silence until the sound of his engine faded. <br /> <br /> “Are you dating him?” <br /> <br /> Her eyes went wide, then narrowed as she took a step forward. “What I do with a male — or anyone for that matter — is none of your business.”<br /> <br /> “It isn’t.” Electricity passed through the air between us. “He has no right to put his hands on you.”<br /> <br /> “He does if I want him to,” she yelled, not only holding her ground against the alpha energy I was exuding but taking another step toward me. “I don’t belong to anyone, remember? I have no mate.”<br /> <br /> I lost it. My hand was around her neck and my mouth was on hers before I even knew what I had done. But I didn’t stop. I couldn’t stop. Sparks of intense electricity shot through me, invigorating all my senses. I pushed her to open for me, my tongue seeking hers. Goddess, she tasted so good. She returned the kiss, her arousal mingling in the air. <br /> <br /> “MINE.” <br /> <br /> She pushed me off her with force.<br /> <br /> I took a step toward her again but she backed away. <br /> <br /> “Don’t you hurt Kylee like this.”<br /> <br /> “Like you care about your sister getting hurt,” I spat, but for some reason, I instantly regretted it. But I couldn’t take it back. I wouldn’t take it back.<br /> <br /> “Excuse me?” Pure rage radiated off of her, her eyes turning an icy blue. <br /> <br /> “You abandoned Kylee a long time ago. You disappeared all the time, leaving her alone with a mother who was struggling to keep everything together.”<br /> <br /> Ayla’s face paled. Every ounce of anger seemed to drain from her instantly, that blue fire fading from her eyes. <br /> <br /> She almost went completely limp in front of me, stumbling until her back hit the wall. Her façade cracked. <br /> <br /> “That’s what she told you? She said that?” her voice was almost a whisper. <br /> <br /> Kieran was going insane in my head, telling me to shut up, to just stop talking. Urging me to stop hurting her. Because I was hurting her. I had struck a nerve, a very deep one, and I wouldn’t stop. She had to break the bond. Once and for all. If it meant I had to break her to do it, I would.<br /> <br /> “She told me everything. She told me how you would keep things from her and your mother. That you would be out at all hours of the night when you were a teenager. How you dropped out of high school, waisting the tuition your parents worked so hard for.”<br /> <br /> “What?” <br /> <br /> “I could never be with someone as cold and heartless as you.”<br /> <br /> Ayla’s head snapped up. Her eyes a steely gray as she resolved herself to something I couldn’t figure out but would soon find out. <br /> <br /> “I, Ayla Garner, reject you, Theo Arden, as my mate. I relinquish my claim as your mate and Luna.”<br /> <br /> I gritted my teeth as Kieran howled in my head, screaming for me not to accept it. <br /> <br /> “I, Theo Arden, accept your rejection.” The pain in my chest amplified, but I could still feel the bond. “We’ve done this before. It’s not working.”<br /> <br /> “Tell your wolf to accept it,” Ayla said with a crack in her voice. <br /> <br /> The muscles in my jaw tightened to a point I thought my teeth would shatter. The noise in my head from Kieran becoming almost unbearable.<br /> <br /> “He won’t.”<br /> <br /> “Make him,” she forced out.<br /> <br /> “I can’t.”<br /> <br /> “He doesn’t have a choice. I’ll never be with him, and neither will she,” Ayla said, tears threatening to fall from her eyes. <br /> <br /> I could feel the pain he felt. It was excruciating. I told him it would end if he just accepted, but he wouldn’t give in. He was an Alpha. He was as strong as me. I’d never overpower him on this. Ayla must have sensed my stalemate. Or her wolf did and told her because she pulled herself from against the wall, standing up straight again.<br /> <br /> “I, Ayla Garner, cut my ties to Alpha Torin…”<br /> <br /> “What are you doing?” There was desperation in my voice. She couldn’t do this. I moved to stop her. <br /> <br /> “And the Greytooth Pack.”<br /> <br /> “No.” I fell to a knee, feeling the invisible tether that united pack members with their Alpha splinter. Kieran was pounding against the barriers of my control, putting all his might into taking over the shift. I knew I was on the verge.<br /> <br /> “From this day forth, I am a rogue.” She took an unsteady step toward me, silent tears rolling freely down her face. “Now get out.”<br /> <br /> She had used my father’s name. Either of our names would have worked in the limbo state we were currently in. But she used my father’s. There was nothing I could do to stop her. Nothing I could do to fight the separation. She knew exactly what she was doing. <br /> <br /> If my wolf wouldn’t sever the mate bond, she would remove herself from any control I had over her. <br /> <br /> With one final, agonizing look, she walked away, disappearing upstairs. <br /> <br /> I took in a ragged breath of air. Ayla now had until midnight to be out of our territory. If I caught her on our land after that, I would have to murder her. Mate bond or not. She was a rogue now. It was our laws. <br /> <br /> Kieran had finally gone still in my mind. <br /> <br /> ‘Mate’s gone.’<br /> <br /> Did he mean Ayla or her wolf?<br /> <br /> ‘Dasha. Mate’s name is Dasha. Dasha’s gone.’<br /> <br /> Realization hit me and panic set in. Her wolf was gone. The pain was too much. She had retreated deep into the recesses of Ayla’s subconscious. Ayla wouldn’t be able to call on her. She wouldn’t be able to shift. She wouldn’t be able to heal.<br /> <br /> She was a rogue without a wolf. She couldn’t protect herself. <br /> <br /> I had to get as far away from her as possible. <br /> <br /> I dragged myself back to my feet, forcing them to walk out the door. <br /> <br /> Chapter 5: Ayla<br /> The moment the door was closed, I sank to the floor. It was no longer sobs that escaped my body but soul-shattering screams. <br /> <br /> She said I abandoned her. <br /> <br /> Theo made it sound like I spent my teen years partying and getting into trouble. She said I dropped out of high school. <br /> <br /> She said I wasn’t a sister to her. <br /> <br /> The betrayal was soul-crushing. <br /> <br /> I had given up everything for them. <br /> <br /> I screamed and let the tears flow freely until my body ached. As soon as it felt like I could breathe without being stabbed by a red-hot dagger, I pulled myself up and started moving. I only had a few hours to get my things and get out of Greytooth territory. <br /> <br /> I had made myself a rogue. I didn’t have a pack anymore. And I had no idea where I was going to go. All the borders on this side of the territory sat right against other pack lands. To get out of one, I’d have to enter another. But it was my only option. Trying to get to unclaimed territory was too risky. I would have better luck on foreign pack land than on the land I just severed ties to. <br /> <br /> After leaving a note for Zeff, I packed up and drove away.<br /> <br /> The Greytooth Pack may not be the largest in population, but they had one of the biggest territories. The closest border crossing was nearly two hours away. And I needed to be far away before Zeff got home. I couldn’t have him tracking me down.<br /> <br /> Especially since I didn’t give him much of an explanation. <br /> <br /> But it was better this way. I wasn’t going to risk him cutting ties and going rogue as well. Because he would. He would hold Theo responsible, and he would never stay in a pack with an alpha he didn’t respect, let alone hate. This way, the note I left would have just made it seem like I got cold feet about us being together. <br /> <br /> I drove to the outskirts of town and got on the highway. From there, it was practically a straight shot to the border. I was grateful at first, but after about an hour, I realized the monotonous ride only left my mind wondering and worrying and thinking about things I didn’t need to think about. <br /> <br /> When Theo found me in the yard that first day, I had no idea what he would say. His initial reaction to our meeting had me thinking he would pursue the pairing. But then his increasingly icy demeanor throughout the evening made it seem like he was thinking along the same lines I was. He wasn’t going to hurt Kylee for someone he didn’t know. <br /> <br /> He loved her. She loved him. I had no idea who he was, nor he I. We could reject each other and just go on our way. Neither one of us would have to break Kylee’s heart. I thought he was keeping me from my family to be cruel. Or maybe to make things easier for both of us. <br /> <br /> But today, his words revealed a different motive. He didn’t reject me for Kylee. He rejected me because of her. Because he believed what she said and painted me as some coldhearted delinquent. But why? I just couldn’t figure that out. <br /> <br /> Dad died in a gas explosion along with my aunt and uncle ten years ago. I was fourteen, and Kylee was nine. Our thirteen-year-old cousin, Mina, came to live with us for a while after their deaths. Ma was hit pretty hard by the loss, so the three of us quickly started taking care of each other. We spent every spare minute with each other. Then our financial situation changed. Kylee was entirely too young, and Mina had been through enough losing both her parents for me to put that on her. So, it was up to me to keep food on the table and a roof over our heads. <br /> <br /> But I was still fourteen. Finding jobs that paid enough to support a family of four at the age of fourteen was non-existent. I would need to work multiple jobs, and there just wasn’t enough time in the day. So, I approached the headmaster at my private high school and confided my situation with him. I was desperate not to drop out or risk my grades dropping and losing my scholarship. My parents didn’t pay a dime of my tuition. <br /> <br /> Headmaster Fordham was a miracle worker. He helped me test out of over eighty percent of my academic requirements by the end of my freshman year. I only had to take four summer classes to graduate a week after my fifteenth birthday. I was even able to broker a deal with him that would set the remaining three years of my scholarship fund aside for Kylee when it came time for her to attend high school. <br /> <br /> I still ended up working multiple jobs for several years. But no matter what, I always tried to be there for Kylee as much as possible. <br /> <br /> Everything I did was for her. <br /> <br /> I completely lost touch with all of my school friends. I never partied. I barely socialized. The jobs I held were really the only place that happened. But I was home to take her to school every morning, and I ensured I had at least an hour to help her with her homework almost every day. <br /> <br /> I didn’t discuss the lengths I went to with Kylee. I didn’t want her to feel bad or that it was her fault. And I didn’t want her to see what Ma was going through. She was struggling to keep any job. She was drinking daily. There were even a couple of times she racked up gambling debts that put us in some scary situations. <br /> <br /> But I never let Kylee see any of that. It was my job to protect them. <br /> <br /> There was so much more that didn’t add up with what Theo had said. But I didn’t get to think about it further. <br /> <br /> A searing pain shot through my chest, making my vision go white at the edges, blinding me to a point I almost missed the figure standing in the road before me. <br /> <br /> My heart jumped into my chest. I turned the wheel as sharp as I could, slamming on the brakes to avoid hitting them head-on. The moment I did it, I felt foolish. Within seconds, I was spinning through the air and sliding down an embankment.<br /> <br /> When the vehicle came to a stop, I was upside down. I registered the smell of blood, but everything was blurry. I didn’t feel significant pain, so I didn’t think the blood was coming from me. <br /> <br /> The person on the road!<br /> <br /> I scrambled out of the car and up the incline. Without Dasha, I couldn’t see well in the dark, but I could see a blurry figure moving toward me.<br /> <br /> “Are you okay?” I called. <br /> <br /> I didn’t catch what they were saying because I suddenly felt the world falling out from beneath my feet, and everything went dark. <br /> <br /> Chapter 6: Theo<br /> I said I would break her if that was what it took.<br /> <br /> And I certainly followed through with that.<br /> <br /> Ayla’s hard exterior had cracked and shattered before me. <br /> <br /> I had driven over an hour, and my stomach was still in knots. So much so that I had to stop to throw up at one point. Guilt tore at me. <br /> <br /> I really had been cruel to her. <br /> <br /> Especially since it turned out it wasn’t even her fault the bond hadn’t broken. She and Dasha had accepted my rejection. They had done what I needed them to do. Ayla had stayed away from Kylee and me. She hadn’t tried to be around them. From what I could tell, she hadn’t even called Kylee like she used to. And how did I repay her? By ripping her apart with every intention of doing as much damage as possible. <br /> <br /> It was my wolf that was still hanging on. It was Kieran who kept us in a constant state of heartache. Kept Ayla in a constant state of pain. <br /> <br /> And then she had to go and do something foolish and cut herself out of the pack. She was completely lost to us now. The only thing I could do was tell myself it was what I wanted. It was the only way to get rid of the temptation and put enough distance between us until Kylee and I were marked and mated and leading our pack. <br /> <br /> Every time I said it, Kieran was there to argue. <br /> <br /> By the time I pulled up to the packhouse, I was so pissed that anyone around instantly took a wide birth. My aura was probably so intense that I was making everyone physically uncomfortable, but I really didn’t care.<br /> <br /> I was going to head to my office but decided against it. Too many people had access to me there, and I really didn’t need anyone coming around. <br /> <br /> What I needed was to work off some of this rage and pent-up energy. <br /> <br /> I made a beeline for the private training room in the wing of the packhouse reserved for ranking members of the pack. I was relieved to find it empty, tugging my shirt over my head and immediately heading to the punching bag in the corner. <br /> <br /> I had worked up a sweat when Briggs entered the room. Walking over to me with his usual swagger, his arms crossed over his chest as he leaned against the wall close by. He knew something was up. He had been hounding me about it since we got back from Kylee’s house. So had my mother, but I sure wasn’t going down that road.<br /> <br /> Briggs was my Beta. We had been friends since we were eight and had been through everything together since then. I didn’t think there was anything we could hide from each other. But I surely wanted to hide this from him. So I just ignored his presence.<br /> <br /> “You ready to tell me what is going on with you? Or at least, where you were today?” he said loud enough to be heard over the sound of my fists hitting the bag. <br /> <br /> “No.”<br /> <br /> “If you don’t, we’ll sedate you. Your aura is out of control right now, bro. This isn’t about you just being in a pissy mood anymore,” Briggs said with an edge to his voice that meant he was serious.<br /> I yelled as I hit the bag hard one more time. I winced as I forced my fingers through my hair. I hadn’t realized I had been breaking the skin on my knuckles. I fell back against the wall, sliding down to the floor. <br /> <br /> “You know I’m here for you, bro,” my Beta said calmly. “Whatever it is, you can talk to me.”<br /> I nodded. <br /> <br /> ‘Tell him.’<br /> <br /> I winced at Keiran’s demand. But I couldn’t really disagree anymore. <br /> <br /> “I found my mate,” I admitted. I could feel Briggs’ eyes go wide in his head. <br /> <br /> “What do you mean you found your mate?” he took a step closer. “Please tell me you’re talking about Kylee.”<br /> <br /> I shook my head. “No. I found my fated mate.”<br /> <br /> “What. The. Fu-” He had warned me about this when I first got involved with Kylee and again when we announced our mating ceremony. “Where is she? Who is she?”<br /> <br /> “I rejected her. She’s gone.”<br /> <br /> “Theo, man, you’re really scaring me now. Why would you do that? What were you thinking?” Briggs demanded.<br /> <br /> “She’s Kylee’s sister,” I snapped. Briggs tensed up.<br /> <br /> “Ayla? As in the sister that allegedly abandoned Kylee?” <br /> <br /> His use of the word “allegedly” pissed me off and confused me a little. He really liked Kylee. They’ve always gotten along. Even when he was cautioning me about finding my mate, he told me he was happy for me. <br /> <br /> “Are you trying to say Kylee is lying?” I snapped.<br /> <br /> He made a face. “No, but I do think it’s foolish to reject your mate without all the information.”<br /> <br /> “I have all the information I need.”<br /> <br /> “No, you have Kylee’s side of the story,” Briggs said with a worried look.<br /> <br /> “And their mother’s,” I added.<br /> <br /> Briggs scoffed. “Look, Marie Garner is a nice enough lady, but I wouldn’t exactly trust her judgment.”<br /> <br /> “What are you talking about?” I asked, my own concern growing.<br /> <br /> “Bro, she’s a lush,” Briggs said with a shrug. “Not that you’ve been around enough to notice since she’s been here. I can’t tell how bad, and she seems pretty harmless. But these things often have a dark side that no one sees.”<br /> <br /> I couldn’t believe we were having this conversation. The last thing I needed was any kind of doubt in my decision. <br /> <br /> “Whatever. It doesn’t matter. What’s done is done. And Ayla’s reactions to all of this told me all I needed to know from her.” I pushed myself to my feet. <br /> <br /> “What were her reactions?” Briggs asked cautiously, and I realized my choice of words may have given away more than I intended. I knew he wouldn’t let it go unless he was sure I told him everything. <br /> <br /> “Which time?” I said quietly.<br /> <br /> “Excuse me?” He heard exactly what I said. “What happened, Theo?”<br /> <br /> “She never argued or fought the rejection. She agreed and accepted it the first day we met like it was nothing. She had no response, no rebuttal, no explanation,” I told him. “You have to be coldhearted to feel nothing after breaking a mate bond.”<br /> <br /> “Or extremely strong,” Briggs stated. “You said she didn’t argue or fight. Did you even give her a chance to speak or even get to know anything about her before you threw her to the curb? Or did you just walk up to her and say tough words?”<br /> <br /> I grimaced. That’s exactly what happened. “There wasn’t exactly an opportunity for that. Neither one of us wanted Kylee to find out.”<br /> <br /> The muscles in his neck flexed as he tensed. “You said ‘which time.’ When did you see her again?”<br /> <br /> “This morning.” <br /> <br /> “Why?” <br /> <br /> I could tell he was choosing his words carefully. <br /> <br /> “Kylee wanted a necklace of her mother’s that was left at their house for some appointment this week. I went back to get it.”<br /> <br /> “Okay, someone else could have done that. Why did you go?” Briggs pushed, but the words stuck in my throat. “Theo, you’re hurting. There’s no way this is as cut and dry as you’re trying to say it is.”<br /> <br /> “The bond didn’t break. Not completely.”<br /> <br /> “Goddess, Theo. So you both have been walking around with your hearts ripped open for the past week?” Briggs said. “So, what happened today? Why are you still on the edge of ripping half the pack’s throats out?”<br /> <br /> Images of that morning flashed through my head. The fear that something had happened to her when she hadn’t been home. The jealousy and rage at finding her at another male’s house. The way it felt when I kissed her. And sheer pain and anguish of everything that followed. <br /> <br /> “Theo?” Briggs pressed.<br /> <br /> “She cut her ties to the pack,” I said solemnly. “She turned herself rogue.”<br /> <br /> “Theo,” Briggs bellowed, “how could you let that happen? Why didn’t you stop her?”<br /> <br /> “She cut herself from Dad. She used his name. There was nothing I could do. I had no way of fighting it.” I was done with this conversation. “So none of this matters. It’s done. She’s gone. She’s never coming back. Doing so would be a death sentence, and she knew that.”<br /> <br /> “What have you done, Theo?”<br /> <br /> “It doesn’t matter,” I yelled. “Whatever I did or didn’t do, she never wanted me anyway. She’s not my problem anymore. So right now, I’m going to worry about cleaning up the mess she made and figure out how to tell Kylee and Marie that they’ll never see her again. And don’t you dare breathe a word about any of this to them, do you understand me?”<br /> <br /> “Okay. Okay,” Briggs said, raising his hands in the air, trying to calm me down. “You’re right. There’s nothing we can do about her now. If it’s done and over with, then it’s done and over with. We’ll move on.”<br /> <br /> I wasn’t sure he believed it, but I didn’t care. Like I said, she wasn’t my problem anymore. <br /> <br /> I went back to my room. There was a knock on my room door, and Kylee poked her head in before I had a chance to answer.<br /> “There you are, mate,” she cooed, sitting in my lap.<br /> She ran a hand up my chest, leaning in to kiss me. Kieran’s growl started immediately.<br /> I still needed to let off some steam. Anything to get some relief.<br /> I was about to respond to her when blinding pain erupted through my body. | LEARN_MORE | https://storyaholic.readlife.mobi/6p33cmijs00.html | 100972718815811 | Holic of novels | https://facebook.com/100071831618482 | 1,865 | 2 | 766,088,132,137,701 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | Learn more | 0 | Holic of novels | 120207528612810731 | storyaholic.readlife.mobi | NONE | video | https://storyaholic.readlife.mobi/6p33cmijs00.html | 2024-03-25 04:13 | https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/434270584_434907868904748_7652153140693840348_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=LqjREQ4My_QAX9aGTUI&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-1.xx&oh=00_AfD3FbX4vGBP3-TAGRnHeKRxkKu_CbtBNhQRmuvLMJrsEg&oe=6609F69A | person_profile | 0 | Holic of novels | https://scontent-atl3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/434244376_977726147107134_4857909069717045074_n.jpg?_nc_cat=102&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=_6lKk2gf6LsAX938SGw&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-2.xx&oh=00_AfC0XeaAMxhwKepWjaqkGPHaOrNbjbL7JXIXDPOR8g2yew&oe=6609FAB6 | 0 | 3 | Holic of novels | 0 | 0 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

Contact | Medisphere | Evansville, IN | Diabetic Gastroparesis is a condition that causes the stomach to not empty normally. It occurs in people with type 1 or 2 diabetes who experience damage to the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve helps your stomach muscles move food through the stomach and into the digestive tract. Once the vagus nerve is damaged, it can cause stomach discomfort, severe nausea, or vomiting after eating. These symptoms can be hard to manage and lead to other complications.<br /> <br /> If you have the following, you may be eligible to participate in our diabetic gastroparesis study:<br /> - 18 years or older<br /> - Confirmed diagnosis of Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes<br /> - Diagnosed with gastroparesis, including gastrointestinal symptoms<br /> <br /> If you're interested in this study, contact us today! <a href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.medisphereresearch.com%2Fdiabetic-gastroparesis&h=AT0vAdMRQYX39nZGnqGY7WUBwq4ZupkY32QUk5yNZ8EvlCx95x-GFfyyudOGN-uMKP7d2XUd-Y79uliyu5eZ89-YN6zVGPfdKcYO9lmZA2Zf7kxWr7WirBtE6ujm6ApzZ0fCc9g98YF1Zg" rel="nofollow noreferrer" target="_blank" data-lynx-mode="asynclazy">https://www.medisphereresearch.com/diabetic-gastroparesis</a> | LEARN_MORE | https://www.medisphereresearch.com/contact | 128416117199066 | MediSphere Medical Research Center | https://facebook.com/MediSphere | 517 | 1 | 752,589,573,298,291 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | Learn more | 0 | MediSphere Medical Research Center | 120207004333760213 | medisphereresearch.com | NONE | image | Feel free to get in touch with Medisphere if you have any questions about our services.

Yes | 2024-03-27 22:52 | active | 362 | 0 | 428983836466481 | 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 | 【He won't be coming home tonight, he's too busy sleeping with me. A full year of passion, something you and him will never have.】<br /> A picture of some random bimbo with blonde hair and a stupid smirk was cuddling up next to my boyfriend who was half undressed and sleeping.<br /> Long forgetting his girlfriend who was at home like a fool, waiting for her boyfriend to show up so they could celebrate their four years together. <br /> And that was the day I found out my boyfriend of four years was cheating on me for the last year of our relationship.<br /> ————————<br /> With every picture I burned, memories of him were vanishing along with my love for him. Everything was finally coming to pieces. All the trips he took, all those long nights at work, all those rejections were part of his lies. Just a cover up for where he truly was, sleeping around with some cheap woman. All while I was at home waiting for him and giving him my love. As the pictures burned my hatred for him grew.<br /> "Babe I'm home."<br /> My head snaps up at the sound of his voice. A voice that once gave me comfort, but now disgusted me.<br /> "In the living room."<br /> I quickly hide the pictures under the couch, and put on a fake smile.<br /> He comes in with his black suit all wrinkled, his shirt un tucked, his tie loose around his neck. His blue eyes held a hint of guilt. A look I knew was fake just like the excuse he was about to give me. He was holding a bear that held a little black box, and a bouquet of red roses. Usually I would accept the gifts and forgive him, but that was before I knew his little cheating adventures. I hold my fake smile as I looked over the gifts in his hands.<br /> "So am I forgiven?"<br /> He says breaking the silence, and all I do is smile.<br /> "Oh babe it's fine, let me guess work was piling up today?"<br /> Let's see what you say you lying scumbag.<br /> I notice his eyes flicker with relief and he lets out a breath.<br /> "You know me so well babe, happy four years Nikky."<br /> He sets the bear, roses and small box on the couch. He comes closer and wraps his arms around me. All I wanted to do at that moment was push him off of me. But trying my best I hug him back. Huh he smells of cheap perfume.<br /> "I'll be back, I'm going to change and then we could have dinner."<br /> I just nod and watch him walk off to my room. I wait until he realizes that his clothes are nowhere to be found. Well at least he hasn't checked the garbage.<br /> "Nikky?"<br /> "Yea?"<br /> I respond looking at his confused face.<br /> "Why aren't any of my clothes in there?"<br /> Tell him now.<br /> "They're in the garbage."<br /> I respond.<br /> "Why?"<br /> "Well I thought since you probably have clothes at her house I could just throw away all the clothes you have here. And plus I need more space for the shoes and more clothes I want to buy."<br /> "What are you talking about?"<br /> He says confused.<br /> "Well I'm talking about the girl's house where you stay I'm pretty sure every night for a little sleepover."<br /> "So you assume I cheated on you?"<br /> "Oh no I'm not assuming anything, I have proof that you cheated on me."<br /> I push past him and grab my phone, opening the message and making him look at the picture. As he does his eyes go wide. He opens his mouth to say something but I cut him off.<br /> "Don't you dare say that this isn't you."<br /> I snap and he looks up at me with guilt in his blue eyes.<br /> "Don't do this."<br /> He pleads.<br /> "Leave."<br /> "Nikky come on please let me explain."<br /> "Explain what Luke?! How you cheated on me for who knows how long and yet you have the nerve to come home knowing well what you have done!"<br /> "Nikky it was a mistake!"<br /> "A mistake! No what you did was not a mistake but a choice."<br /> He doesn't say anything.<br /> "Leave! And take this because I don't want anything to do with you!"<br /> I throw the roses and bear at him, along with the little box. And the necklace I was currently wearing.<br /> "Ple-<br /> "Leave now before I call the police."<br /> He stands there looking at me.<br /> "Leave!"<br /> I bang on his chest and push him out the door. Once he is out the door I slam it shut and that's when I feel it. My heart clenches and a sob escapes my throat, tears following right after. And that's when I break, I fall to the ground and let out sobs as I realize that the guy I had loved had broken my heart and didn't think twice when he cheated on me. The guy I was having a baby with had broken me. Grabbing my stomach I let out another sob.<br /> I'm so sorry baby.<br /> The seconds turned to hours which turned to days. I had moved out from the apartment into a smaller one closer to the city. My once flat belly was now a small round bump, being 1 month pregnant and alone brought a lot of complications for me, emotionally wise. I had yet to tell my parents, for all they knew Luke and I were still a thing. I had told no one about the break up except for my best friend Charlie, who I called up the next day to help me find a new place. A place were I could start fresh, with new memories. Just my baby and I.<br /> I was meeting my mom and dad for brunch today so to make sure my bump wasn't noticeable I decided to wear a large black shirt and black leggings and a pair of vans. My hair which was once long was now above my shoulders.<br /> Mom: Sweetie why don't you invite Luke over to eat with us? Your father and I haven't seen or heard from him in a while<br /> I sigh as I look at the text.<br /> Well of course you haven't heard from the scumbag, we broke up because he cheated. And now I'm having his baby.<br /> That's what I wanted to text her, but of course I didn't. But instead replied with the same excuse. Luke was at work and couldn't make it.<br /> "Come on little bean, we have to go meet grandma and grandpa."<br /> I rub my belly and smile. Yea I was already talking to the baby, who was probably the size of a bean if not a bit larger.<br /> Walking out of the apartment I head over to my car and drive off to the cafe that was twenty minutes away.<br /> Driving was always something that I dreaded, because my mind tends to wander to questions I would rather most likely avoid. And the biggest one of course was, When are you going to tell Luke that you're pregnant? Or are you not going to? Personally I would rather keep my baby away from him and not let him know, but he is the father and legally has the right to know.<br /> Before I could get anymore into the subject, I turn the radio on, raising the volume up to drown my thoughts.<br /> By the time I get there parking was already full, so I'm forced to park a block away.<br /> "Great, that means more walking little bean. Which isn't a bad thing. But mommy gets tired."<br /> Dad: Kiddo are you almost here?<br /> I look at the text and chuckle, my dad was always impatient when it came to food.<br /> Me: Yes dad, had to park a block away but I should be there in three minutes.<br /> I turn the engine off and walk out to the crisp air. It was mid-September and the weather in Chicago was getting a bit cooler as fall approached.<br /> I start walking and as I do I start to feel nervous, the fact that my parents will finally know that Luke and I broke up and that I was pregnant and was going to be a single mom was quite the thing to get me all nervous.<br /> It'll be fine, no need to get all worked up about it. You are an adult and they can't tell you what to do anymore.<br /> I kept telling myself as I opened the door and was welcomed with the scent of coffee and warmth. I search the whole place and spot my parents all the way in the back, my dad waving his hands and my mom laughing as she brought the mug to her lips.<br /> Smiling at them I walk towards their table causing them both to get up and greet me with a hug.<br /> "Kiddo Long time no see! How's Luke?"<br /> Just the mention of that name made my stomach churn.<br /> "Yea dad it has been a long time."<br /> I reply ignoring the last part.<br /> "Mom."<br /> I say giving her a hug.<br /> "Darling, how I've missed you. Woah looks like someone is gaining a bit of weight."<br /> Come on Nikky it's now or never. You have to tell them.<br /> "Well, that's what I wanted to talk to you guys about."<br /> I explain, biting on the inside of my cheek.<br /> "Of you gaining weight?"<br /> My dad asks as he sits back down.<br /> And before I can answer a waitress comes by.<br /> "Can I get you anything to drink?"<br /> "Yea she'll have an espresso."<br /> My mom answers.<br /> I shake my head.<br /> "Actually I'll just have a hot chocolate with whipped cream on top and a chocolate chip muffin please."<br /> "Alrighty, then I'll be right out with that."<br /> "Hot chocolate?"<br /> "Yea I just wanted to try something different."<br /> I say playing around with the hem of my shirt.<br /> "So what did you want to talk about Nikky?"<br /> My mom says sitting back down and I follow sitting across from her and my dad.<br /> "Well, um okay, how do I tell you guys."<br /> Quit stalling and just tell them Nikky!<br /> "Nikky just spit it out. You know you can tell us anything."<br /> I nod, reassuring my mom that I knew that.<br /> "Okay, well I'm uh pregnant."<br /> There I said it.<br /> I looked at both my parents who had a blank stare. That is until my mother broke into a smile and stood up, making me stand up as well.<br /> "Sweetie congratulations! Why didn't you tell me sooner?"<br /> She wraps her arms around me and sways us side to side.<br /> "Come on let me get a hug."<br /> My dad says and my mom lets go letting my dad congratulate me by giving me one of his famous bear hugs.<br /> "Can't believe we're going to be grandparents."<br /> I look over at my mom who was on the verge of crying.<br /> "Mom please don't cry."<br /> I plead knowing that I had yet to tell them the other part of the news and not know how they would react with the second part once I had told them.<br /> "So how did Luke react?"<br /> They both look at me with the biggest smiles on their faces.<br /> "He doesn't know."<br /> I say and my mom blinks and my dad just smiles.<br /> "Of course! you want to make it a surprise!"<br /> I shake my head no.<br /> "We broke up, have been for a while now. I left the apartment and got a smaller one closer to the city. Charlie helped me pick it out."<br /> "You're not going to keep it am I right?"<br /> My mother asks looking rather angry.<br /> I was taken aback from her remark, does she mean an abortion?<br /> "No, I plan on keeping my baby."<br /> "Nikky do you know what our friends will say when they find out about this?"<br /> I don't answer her but just continue staring at both my parents, letting her comment process.<br /> Why would I want to have an abortion? This baby was a blessing for me and there was no way that I was going to end my little bean's life. Sure being a single mom would be a bit more challenging but I had my friends, and I thought I had my family but apparently they don't approve.<br /> "Or if you don't want an abortion, we can have it be adopted."<br /> I look at my mother with a look of disgust.<br /> "It's a baby, not it. And I will not have an abortion nor will I have the baby be adopted."<br /> I speak low as to not cause a scene, not that it mattered.<br /> "Nikky listen to your mother, this won't be good for your reputation. Think about it, you'll be a single mom living on your own and not even married with a baby on the way."<br /> I scoff.<br /> "Are you listening to yourself, dad?! Not married and with a baby? This is the twenty-first century, things change and not being married and with a kid is one of them."<br /> Before my mom could reply the waitress comes with our stuff.<br /> "Actually I'll like to have my things to go please."<br /> I say giving her a small smile.<br /> She looks between my mom and I and nods, maybe she could sense the tension going on.<br /> "Of course."<br /> "Thank you."<br /> I turn back to my parents.<br /> "Don't worry, we won't be causing you or your reputation any more trouble."<br /> With that said I walk to the cash register grabbing my hot chocolate and muffin and leaving the coffee shop.<br /> I was preoccupied with my thoughts but the chime of my phone quickly pulled me back to reality.<br /> "So let me get this straight your mother wants you to have an abortion or have the baby be adopted?"<br /> Charlie looks over at me as he flips over the omelet, he looked a bit shocked that my mother would think such thing.<br /> "Yup, my dad even said that it was bad for my reputation being a single mother and all. That it was immoral for me to have the baby and not have the father here with me."<br /> I move around to the cupboard to get the plates along with the cups.<br /> "Well, why would you want a douchebag to me near your baby, especially a cheating one."<br /> "Well he is the father, I have to tell him. But no way will I get back with him."<br /> "So are you for sure ready to tell him? The real question I'm asking is if you're ready to face him again."<br /> He places the omelet on the plate and sets the pan down before looking at me.<br /> "I have no clue, whenever I think about him I feel like throwing up, and I just get nervous. But he has to know, doesn't he?"<br /> I ask looking as Charlie starts preparing his omelet. He shrugs his shoulders before cracking an egg followed by another.<br /> "That's up to you. Do you want him to be part of the baby's life?"<br /> I let out a sigh and run my hands through my face, feeling exhausted from the whole situation.<br /> "I don't know what I want anymore, I just want to live a happy life with my baby."<br /> "Here eat already."<br /> He nudges the plate towards me and I grab it sitting down, waiting for Charlie to finish making his.<br /> "I don't have his number anymore so that means I'm going to have to talk with his parents and get his number from them."<br /> I take my fork and cut a piece of the omelet bringing it to my mouth.<br /> "This is so good."<br /> I exclaim with a full mouth. Charlie chuckles and turns his head to look at me.<br /> "Glad you two like it."<br /> "Like it? We love it."<br /> I take another bite letting my mouth savor the flavors that the sausage, bacon, and ham brought to my taste buds. Charlie joins me finally with his omelet my hot chocolate and his coffee mug, taking a seat across from me.<br /> "Veggie omelet?"<br /> I ask looking at his omelet which contained mushrooms, avocado, spinach, and tomatoes.<br /> "Yea it's good."<br /> He says taking a bite and looking at me with his blue eyes.<br /> I shake my head.<br /> "Maybe, but little bean and I prefer the meat omelet."<br /> The rest of our breakfast time we spent time talking about random stuff, school, and a new project he had. We talked about almost everything except my parents, luke, and the problems I soon had to face.<br /> "Okay so let me get this, you have a date tomorrow and you're barely telling me today?! Why didn't you tell me sooner jerk?"<br /> I smack his arm playfully.<br /> "Becuase I'm not for sure if it will turn out into more dates."<br /> "I don't care, you should have told me. It's about time you got a date."<br /> He rolls his eyes, he opens his mouth to say something smart but he was cut off by a sudden knock at the door.<br /> "Are you expecting someone?"<br /> "Not that I'm aware of."<br /> I get up from my seat and make my way towards the door, before opening it I look through the peephole and feel my heart start beating faster, and not in a good way. | LEARN_MORE | https://a.crazynovelapp.com/ad/TXlsaWIvMTMyMzUwLzI | 101567746344602 | Cra0003 | https://facebook.com/100094651747378 | 65 | 1 | 919,088,149,948,101 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | Learn more | 0 | Cra0003 | 120210808573280679 | a.crazynovelapp.com | NONE | video | https://a.crazynovelapp.com/ad/TXlsaWIvMTMyMzUwLzIwMjQwMzI1MTY0MjQ5L3BhZ2U=?adid={{ad.id}} | 2024-03-25 05:57 | https://scontent-ord5-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433459326_934421328173532_5212669053100465986_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=OFLUizbQiOgAX_RWL5z&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-1.xx&oh=00_AfD-5W4g7leXTt170kTXnixb1-gND8YVbzBoVlhksT22pA&oe=66094B01 | person_profile | 0 | Cra0003 | https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433472976_387796417344000_4755736650009713208_n.jpg?_nc_cat=105&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=U7kEOkkTEegAX9Ru2Ml&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfCZNusSWvZ1OOYdLp4EoeSz_zO-x0BibESRb56j2pQ1QQ&oe=66093152 | 0 | 3 | Cra0003 | 0 | 0 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

I grew wetter than I already was.<br /> My body was getting hot, my common sense was gone, and I moved my bottom half closer to him.<br /> Hinting to him that I want his fingers inside me.

As I got lost in the pleasure, he slid another finger into me.<br /> "AHHHH...HARDER'', lost in the pleasure, I was on the verge of begging for more.<br /> After her divorce, Cleo promised herself that she was done with men. And because of her history, she is determined to stay away from shifters as well. She didn't want a relationship or friendship with a man or a shifter.<br /> However, her best friend Jazz just so happens to be mated with a shifter. A shifter who is the Beta of the most feared pack in America. For some reason, Cleo is drawn to the brother of her best friend mate. As fate will have it a fire happened. Leaving Jazz and Cleo to stay with the Alpha and Beta.<br /> Valenzano wanted his mate for many years. One day he meets his mate who is human. A human who has a bad past with shifters. To not scare her away from him, West and her best friend Jazz keep it a secret that Cleo is Valenzano's mate.<br /> Will Cleo be willing to be Valenzano's mate?<br /> Read the spicy story to find the answer.<br /> Reader description is advised this book contains, strong sexual content, strong language, and violence.<br /> READ LESS<br /> --------------------<br /> Cleo POV:<br /> I am sitting watching Jeepers Creepers and I hear bing, bing, and my phone is going off. It's Robert's assigned ring tone he must be Robert checking in. I look at the time on the TV. It's 8 p.m. eastern time, so it's at least 2 a.m. in Italy.<br /> Why is Robert up at 2 a.m.? I struggle to get up to grab my phone, this pregnancy is kicking my ass, my feet hurt, my back hurt, my breasts hurt, and I can't wait for Robert to come back. I pick up my phone and see it's a media message from Robert.<br /> I open it and my heart stops. After three days of crying, I came to a conclusion about what I should do. I thought I had time to leave before he got back from his business trip. I hear Robert enter the house; he sees my luggage by the door.<br /> "Hey babe, where are you going?", he asked.<br /> "I AM fkING LEAVING ROBERT!", I yelled as I bring more luggage to the door.<br /> "What...why?", he asked confused.<br /> "BECAUSE OF MY DUMB ASS HUSBAND!", I screamed at him.<br /> "What the fk did I do?", he asked, confused.<br /> "REALLY ROBERT!", I said, ready to cut his dick off.<br /> "Baby just tell me what's wrong", he said, pleading I am not falling for his shit.<br /> He sounds so calm and it is pissing me off. I'm not sure if it's the pregnancy hormones or the fact that I felt hurt and betrayed. Maybe it's a mixture of both. No woman, especially one that is 14 weeks pregnant, should have to deal with this bull shit. He gently grabs me and turns me to face him.<br /> "Please talk to me", he says as he rubs my stomach.<br /> "Fine explain this", I pulled out my cell phone and showed him the text that I received from his phone. I can tell his secretary is holding his phone taking the picture.<br /> "The text is pictures of them in bed during his business trip. He looks at the screen and I watch as his face turns pale as he mouths "What the fk", he says, playing like he is shocked.<br /> "IT LOOKS LIKE YOU AND VALLIE IN BED TOGETHER!", I screamed so hard I started to feel nauseous.<br /> "Babe, it's not what it looks like", he said, staring at the picture.<br /> Why the fk is he so calm about this? His pregnant wife is on the verge of leaving him because his slut of a secretary decided she wanted to cross the line and send me pics of them.<br /> If I wasn't pregnant, I would beat her ass, not because she was in bed with him had because she has the nerve to send me photos of it. I need to calm the hell down because a lot of stress is bad for the baby.<br /> "Look at the pictures, I am fully dressed", he says as he points to the screen.<br /> "But she is not....and if it is not what it looks like, then you should never have put yourself in the position for her to be able to take the picture and send them to me", I said now crying.<br /> I walk out the door, he grabs me, and I pull away. The next thing I know, I am waking up in the hospital. I see Robert and my best friend Jazz looking at me with sadness in their eyes.<br /> "What happened... Why am I in the hospital?", I asked then feeling dizzy.<br /> "You had an accident babe", Robert says with sorrow in his eyes.<br /> "What kind of accident....is the baby ok!?", I say starting to panic.<br /> "You fell down the stairs at home honey... I am so sorry", Jazz says as she starts to cry. I looked at Robert and he just shook his head like he is holding back tears and said, "the baby is gone".<br /> "WHAT THE fk DO YOU MEAN THE BABY IS GONE!", I started yelling and touching my stomach, and I couldn't feel my baby.<br /> "You fell on your stomach while trying to leave the house", Jazz said.<br /> And that's when it all came back to me, the photos, the argument, and my wanting to leave him. After some hours of crying and trying to cope with the news of our loss. The doctor told us that having a miscarriage at 14 weeks is hard on the body.<br /> I can't get pregnant again. Because of the way the miscarriage happened, it is not likely that I will be a be to carry a baby to term. With the doctor's statement, I lost my hopes, my dreams, and my husband. Robert later divorced me. His reason was that I could not give him an heir.<br /> He added that he still loves me, but he has a duty to his family and must produce an heir. I would never have thought at the age of 28, I would have lost everything dear to me.<br /> I could not believe that bastard would file for a divorce while I am in the hospital. I was in the hospital for two weeks. He didn't come back to visit me or call me. He wasn't there to pick me up and take me home, so I had to call Jazz to come and get me. She couldn't get in contact with him either.<br /> We were both worried about him. That changed when we got to my house. All his stuff was gone and there were divorce papers on the kitchen table. In two weeks, this asshole filed for divorce and moved out.<br /> After crying for four hours, I signed it without reading it and left with Jazz. I haven't seen or heard from Robert since, the truth is, I didn't even try to find him.<br /> All this happened two years ago. I still lived with Jazz and her crazy ass. I was awarded the house and other properties in the divorce, but I could not stand to live there so I sold it. And given the other properties away to charity.<br /> Two long years without any male companionship. And tonight is the night that Jazz thinks I should change that. I just hope I don't get hurt in the process.<br /> <br /> Cleo POV:<br /> "Cleo hurry and get dressed, no more stalling you are going and that's it!" I heard my best friend Jazz yell from the damn living room.<br /> fk my life, I know her boyfriend, who is a shifter, by the way, is opening a club tonight with his brother, who happens to be the Alpha of the Pinot Moon Pack. I don't even know their names; I never attempt to find out. I love my best friend, but she is a shifter chaser.<br /> She hops from shifter to shifter hoping she is their fated mate or chosen mate. Seriously, she has been with Werebears, Werefoxes, basically any species that is part human and turns into an animal she has been with. I think this guy she is dating now is a werewolf. And, of course, she is attracted to the most dangerous pack in America.<br /> "Cleopatra Noir if we are late, I am going to kick your ass.... the car West sent is still waiting!", she yells again. Well, I guess I know her boyfriend's name lol.<br /> "This dress is too damn short what the hell Jazz, I look like I am selling pussy!" I yelled at her. I can't believe she picked this dress out for me.<br /> The dress is cute. It is a royal blue one-shoulder body con dress with a gold strip going down the back, I decided to wear my gold metallic pumps. I do my makeup not too much, just bronzer to enhance my chestnut skin tone. My hair is in a high bun with Chinese bangs. I go downstairs and she is just standing looking at the phone. I huffed loudly and she turned and her jaw dropped to the floor.<br /> "Girl, you look good enough to eat", she says.<br /> "Yeah, that's what I want to hear, especially if I am going to be in a club full of shifters". I mentally rolled my eyes knowing I might get eaten tonight and not in a good way.<br /> We left and got in the car; Jazz was texting the whole way there. I guess she was texting her man to tell him we were on our way.<br /> We finally made it to the club. I laughed to myself as I saw the red neon lights that read" Club Blood Moon". Jazz pushed me in front of her and introduced me to her boyfriend, while his brother introduced himself. He seemed so conceited. I know most women drop their panties for shifters, well not me.<br /> "I am Valenzano Pinot Alpha of the Pinot Moon Pack", he said while looking me up and down.<br /> I noticed that his eyes changed from hazel green to a golden color and back to hazel green. He is fine as hell. About 6'5 with olive skin. And I can tell by the way his clothes fit that he has solid muscle. I wonder how old he is because he got a salt-and-pepper thing going on with his hair.<br /> We go inside the club to the VIP section. I must say the club looks excellent. There were black leather seats on the main floor and blood-red leather couches in the VIP area. The Waitress brings us three bottles of Armand de Brignac Ace of Spades Brut Rose and some shots.<br /> I sit there watching the dance floor as I drink, but I can't help feeling someone staring at me and I know who that someone is. I am so glad Jazz asked me to dance. I threw back three shots and got up. I never moved so fast in my life. We went to the dance floor to dance to Poison by Bell Biv DeVoe. I am swaying my hips, letting the music and the alcohol take over.<br /> The drinks I had got me feeling great like "Tony the Tiger Great". I am moving to the beat of the music, and then suddenly I feel two arms wrapped around my hips. And then the beat drops and it is one of my favourite songs Back that ass up, by Juvenile.<br /> And whoever dude was that was dancing on me was doing a good job keeping up or I am rusty at this club dancing shit. Jazz turns to me and handed me another shot of whatever was in her hand. I turned to look at the guy I was dancing with and, damn, he was fine. Like if I was still in my twenties, we would be on top of someone's car going at it like rabbits.<br /> "What's your name?", I asked.<br /> He leaned into my ear and whispered "Racell", and my body shook, and my pussy started leaking like a faucet. I don't know if it's a shifter-seducing trick or the liquor. But I am turned all the way the fk on.<br /> "And what's yours," he asked in the sexiest voice I ever heard.<br /> Before I had a chance to answer, I heard the most horrible growl ever. I got sober quickly, pussy dried up, and shit. The whole club got quiet. I turned and saw Valenzano standing there with his eyes golden.<br /> I been around wolves before. His eyes changing colors can mean one of two things. Either Valenzano is horny or pissed off. And based on how he is looking at me and Recell he is extremely pissed off. But my question is why? I just met this man; we don’t know each other. For him to act like this is unacceptable. And is one of the reasons I do not date shifters.<br /> “Oh, hey Valenzano”, I said nervously but he did not respond to me. However, he is grilling Recall down.<br /> “Is he your boyfriend, mate or something?”, Recell said looking from me to Valenzano.<br /> “No, I don’t have a mate, nor a boyfriend”, I said. I guess Valenzano heard me because the next thing I know he growled and Recell is on the floor.<br /> Oh, my goodness. What the hell is wrong with this man beast person. Damn it why did is let Jazz convince me to come out tonight. Why did I let her convince me to come here of all places?<br /> Cleo POV: <br /> After he left, I got out of the tub to dry off, and get dressed the shirt he gave me fit like a nightgown and stop at the knees. The cotton is soft, and it smells like him; chocolate, cinnamon, and pine. Something about his scent turned me on. I kept sniffing the shirt. I even gave his scent the name" The Sensual Trinity". I never knew a man could smell so good. And I know that is his natural smell because male shifters don’t use cologne.<br /> I got into the bed; I felt my whole-body sink into the mattress. An hour goes by and I am still up. I can't believe I am in the softest bed I have ever been in and I can't sleep. I got up and went to the kitchen to grab a drink. Jose usually makes me sleepy.<br /> Since everyone seemed to be asleep, I don't see any servants. I turn on some music and pour myself some shots of Jose. As I throw back shots my playlist plays "Freak Me", by the group Silk. I start dancing and singing to myself and I can feel my body heat rise. I am jamming in the kitchen like this is my house.<br /> I was so into singing, dancing, and drinking that I didn't even notice him enter the kitchen. I thought I was alone until I felt something hard on my ass. For some reason, my body knew it was him. He spoke in a deep aggressive tone and said, "I can do that if you wish".<br /> I turned around slowly, partially in shock because I have no idea how long has been here. I looked him up and down. His eyes are golden, I realize that I am not dealing with Valenzano but his WOLF.<br /> "Do what?'', I asked nervously. Damn, I am getting wet having him so close to me.<br /> He smirks and says, "lick you up and down".<br /> Before I can respond he lifts me place me on the counter snugs between my legs and starts kissing and licking me. His tongue reaches my neck and I shiver. I grew wetter than I already was. Maybe I should let go and have some fun. His kiss became hard and possessive. I tried to push him a little so I could ask his name.<br /> "Wh...Wha.....What's your name", I asked out of breath. He stopped kissing me and placed his forehead on mine. Then looked me in the eyes and said," Vintage...but you can call me Alpha if you like Cleopatra".<br /> “It's Cle”, she said.<br /> “To me it is Cleopatra. I will be the only man to call you that understand”, he said and I nodded unexpectedly.<br /> Oh, SHIT, my body shivered and temptation rose at the sound of his dominant voice. The power rolling off him makes me want to open my legs wide. I don’t know this man but have an effect on me that I never felt before.<br /> “Vintage”, I whispered.<br /> “No baby, its Alpha. I don’t want to have to punish you for addressing me wrong”, he said in his deep sexy voice.<br /> "Mmmmm...Alpha", I moaned as he nibbled on my neck.<br /> I felt him grin against my skin. I moved closer to him as he reached under the shirt and grabbed my breast. It felt good. I wanted more, I needed more. I had just met this man, I thought to myself, trying to put some sense in my head. But before I could come to a sensible reason, his fingers were between my wet folds.<br /> “That right baby. Say it again”,<br /> Mmmmmm...Alpha”, I moan again throwing my head back.<br /> "Mmmmm...your so wet Cleopatra", he says as he plays with my clit like it's a violin.<br /> My body was getting hot, my common sense was gone, and I moved my bottom half closer to him. Hinting to him that I want his fingers inside me. And he did just that, he slid one finger into me. As I got lost in the pleasure, he slid another finger into me.<br /> It's been two long years since I had a man touch me, and I have never had one touch me the way he is doing right now. The pain was worth the pleasure that came after it.<br /> "AHHHH...HARDER'', lost in the pleasure, I was on the verge of begging for more.<br /> While his fingers are still in me. He got me riding his fingers midair. He adds a third finger and my hold on him becomes tighter. I place my forehead on his and watch as his eyes flicker from golden to hazel green.<br /> My stomach starts to cringe, my pussy is throbbing, and I feel my orgasm brewing. And he knows it, he knows I am on the edge. He looks at me like he and his human are giving each other a mental high-five.<br /> "AHHHHHH...IMMA BOUT TO CUM'', I scream the sensation is making me lose it<br /> His fingers move in and out of me at superhuman speed. I was about to cum, when we both heard a woman growl," WHAT THE fk!" He stopped, and his back became tense as he turned around to face the woman who was standing there, while his fingers were still in me. Who the hell is that? I said to myself.<br /> He huffed and gently placed me back on the counter. I felt horrible and she looked pissed. If I had to judge by her demeanour, she had to be his girlfriend. I felt so sick that I could get down from my sensual high. I jumped off the counter holding back tears of embarrassment and ran upstairs.<br /> Oh, no I knew he had someone. Why wouldn't he, he is a powerful, sexy Alpha. I am so stupid. I might have messed up a happy home. Damn it, I could have messed up shit for Jazz. Who would want the best friend of a home wreaker as a female Beta?<br /> <br /> 🔥Download and read the follow-up of the story🔥<br /> Free reading without any hidden fees👉👉👉 | INSTALL_MOBILE_APP | http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.r | 144743602065911 | StorytellingHaven | https://facebook.com/61554422027064 | 62 | 1 | 2,385,311,758,325,345 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | Install now | 0 | StorytellingHaven | 120206571530130658 | play.google.com | NONE | image | Enjoy Good web novels reading offline: werewolf, romance, fantasy story and more | http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rnovel.android.app | 2024-03-25 05:53 | https://scontent-ord5-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433249461_905300948013126_7723752874845241866_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=KDOexz4vLEEAX_SE7iM&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-1.xx&oh=00_AfCC2ktbq4IuluRaS1U6q7H79vomlTiuE5gEdu_UYEgzlQ&oe=660928B3 | person_profile | 0 | StorytellingHaven | https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433101161_779654547087390_7442353138642083908_n.jpg?_nc_cat=105&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=idZa-xzvBBEAX-1AS1B&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfDsKhD9JRTk8Bn-x6iGLLiEIfjMZwTGG2LPSdECGUKMYw&oe=660A70DD | 0 | 3 | StorytellingHaven | 0 | 0 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||

Teen Wolves in College - Romance Novel | Hot guys 🗸<br /> Sizzling bedroom scenes 🗸<br /> Fated Mates 🗸<br /> _____<br /> <br /> Read a sneak peak:<br /> <br /> Chapter 1<br /> Quin <br /> <br /> I can’t believe Lou talked me into doing this. At one point she’s saying how I’ll go feral if I don’t get out and meet somebody, and the next thing I know I’m yelling at her about how that’s not how going feral works. She then tells me that that is exactly how it works and makes up a story about a dog that went crazy because it was tied up all day.<br /> <br /> As insulting as it was to compare me to a dog, I have to admit that she’s not entirely wrong. I’ve struggled figuring out who I am. Am I my father’s daughter as my dad always says? Or, am I the thing that the rest of the world sees me as and that I’m always trying to suppress?<br /> <br /> Either way, my life sucks. I mean, I have everything in life anyone could ask for thanks to my father’s wildly successful genetics research company. But, it comes with a trade-off that makes it not worth it.<br /> <br /> My father thought he was doing the world a service by curing infertility. And since my mom was infertile, she became the first test subject. I’m proof that it worked. But it had a side effect that no one could ever have imagined.<br /> <br /> My mom is dead because of that side effect. I lock myself away because of that side effect. And, because of it, I’m scared as hell of the full moon.<br /> <br /> It’s not that I think anything is going to happen to me during a full moon. There’s been a lot of full moons since the first time, and I believe in science.<br /> <br /> What terrifies me about it is what other people think will happen. If they’ve heard of me —and who hasn’t heard of me thanks to my showboating father — and they see me out in a full moon, every crazy story they’ve read turns me into a monster in their eyes.<br /> <br /> I don’t want to feel their judgement or terror. What’s more, I don’t want to smell it. I’ve been told that I’m the only one who notices it, but people’s scents are overwhelming. That’s part of the reason I lock myself in my dorm room when I’m not attending class. Well, that and fact that no one at East Tennessee University has recognized me yet and I want it to stay that way.<br /> <br /> The only one so far who knows about my condition is Louise, my roommate and first actual friend. I told her after the University matched us and decided that this was the year I would attend. Thanks to my home schooling and inheriting my father’s intellectual gifts, I’ve had a high school equivalency since I was 16 years old. And four years is a long time to figure out what I’m going to do with my life.<br /> <br /> It’s not like I would ever need to find a job, or that I couldn’t get the equivalent of my intended genetics major just from working with my dad. But, there was one thing I didn’t have and I knew I couldn’t get living how I was. Locked away like in our New York penthouse, I would never have a life. I would never have real friends. I would never have sex.<br /> <br /> I wanted sex. During a certain time of the month, it is all I can think about. The full moon might not turn me into a snarling, half-human beast. But, it makes me think sex like I need it to breath. The older I get, the worse it gets.<br /> <br /> Is there a chance not leaving my dorm will make me go feral like Lou casually suggested? I don’t think so. I’ve had a lot more control over things compared to when I was a kid. If this was an alcohol problem instead of what it is, I could say that I haven’t had a drink in years.<br /> <br /> But, whether Lou was joking or not, I didn’t want her thinking that me going feral was a possibility. So, after some yelling and fighting, I looked up the only party on campus happening tonight, and dressed for it.<br /> <br /> “Finally,” Lou said as I headed to the door.<br /> <br /> What killed me was that after all of our arguing, as I left she had a smirk on her face. It was like this was her plan all along and I was the only one who actually got upset. She had manipulated me to go out and get a life. That sneaking little diva!<br /> <br /> “And I want proof that you didn’t just go to a park and chase squirrels or something.”<br /> <br /> “I don’t chase squirrels!” I protested strongly.<br /> <br /> “Whatever! But, when I get back from my date, I want to see a naked guy in your bed and I want to see some shame, Missy. Plenty of it.”<br /> <br /> “There will be! There will be plenty of shame, for you. Because of how wrong you were about me… and stuff.”<br /> <br /> “Good.”<br /> <br /> “Good.”<br /> <br /> “I mean it, Quin.”<br /> <br /> “Me too.”<br /> <br /> So now, here I am marching across campus to the only party that my last-minute research turned up. East Tennessee University’s football team won against West Tennessee University their cross-state rivals earlier in the day and the football fraternity was throwing a party. Nothing about any of that sounded fun, but I’m going… because Lou tricked me into it. So much for me being the smart one.<br /> <br /> Fine. I’ll go. I’ll get proof that I was there. Then I’ll go to a coffee shop and read a book on my phone.<br /> <br /> I know she mentioned that thing about finding someone naked in my bed, but there’s no way that’s going to happen. I couldn’t lose my virginity in a pool full of dicks. Believe me, I’ve tried. But as soon as anyone gets a good look at me and realizes who I am, they either talk about leashing me in case I turn on them in the middle of sex, or they run for the hills.<br /> <br /> No, I’m going to spend the rest of my life as a sad, lonely virgin. Did I just bum myself out? I think I did. Now I’m really not in the mood for a party.<br /> <br /> Rounding the corner, I could hear the music before the fraternity house came into view. My anger at Lou was still driving me, but its effects were fading fast. The other thing about growing up the way I did was that, I wasn’t very good at human stuff. Coming face-to-face with the reality of what I was doing, I was realizing that there was no way I was going to be able to mingle or cohort or whatever it was that people my age did.<br /> <br /> Nope! New plan. I wasn’t going in. I was gonna get my proof that I was here, though. I was gonna walk up to one of the half dozen people standing outside, ask to take a selfie with them and then get out of there as quickly as I could.<br /> <br /> Looking around, I saw people smoking, people talking in a circle with red cups, and one guy standing by himself. That made the selection easy. All I had to do was walk up to him, ask to take a selfie, snap it, thank him and go. I could manage that. I wasn’t a complete freak. I could talk to one person.<br /> <br /> Tightening my lips, I hardened my resolve and charged over. I wasn’t going to overthink it. I was just going to do it and be done.<br /> <br /> “Excuse me, can I get a selfie with you?” I asked the guy with his back to me.<br /> <br /> “You want a selfie with me? Why?” The guy said with an edge to his voice as he turned around.<br /> <br /> Woah!<br /> <br /> Do you know that feeling when you see something that takes your breath away? Warm prickles start at the back of your hands and shoot up your arms before settling in your face as the heat makes you lightheaded? That was what happened when our eyes met. The guy was beautiful.<br /> <br /> His creamy skin contrasted with his jet black hair and pool-blue eyes. His jawline was carved out of marble. There were dimples, so many dimples. And his rippling muscles looked like they had muscles.<br /> <br /> More than that, he smelled amazing. There was a sweet musk to him that I had never smelt in my life. It made me drunk just standing there. As his scent wafted off of him, it stripped me of my will. It was like he had leashed me while at the same time awaking the part of me I fought so hard to restrain.<br /> <br /> I couldn’t speak and he was clearly waiting for me to. He had asked me a question. What was it? Oh yeah! It was why I wanted a selfie with him, and he seemed upset about it.<br /> <br /> Had I made him angry? Was it weird to ask to take a selfie with a complete stranger? It probably was? Shit! What the hell was I thinking?<br /> <br /> “Sorry,” I sputtered before forcing my legs to move in the opposite direction.<br /> <br /> I got two steps away before he spoke again.<br /> <br /> “Wait! Don’t go.”<br /> <br /> I stopped.<br /> <br /> “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be rude. If you want a selfie, I’ll take one with you.”<br /> <br /> “No, that’s okay,” I said wanting to look at him again but scared that if I did I wouldn’t be able to breathe.<br /> <br /> “No, really. It’s fine. You can get one. I don’t know why anyone would want one. But, it’s fine. I’d be happy to take one with you.”<br /> <br /> That was when I looked at him again. I recognized what he was saying. He was talking like a guy who was used to people asking to take pictures with him. I knew a little about that. Who didn’t want to take their picture with Harlequin Toro, the only wolf shifter in existence?<br /> <br /> That was me, though. Why did people ask him for selfies? He was the most amazing-looking guy ever. Did random strangers approach him dazzled by his beauty? It wouldn’t surprise me if they did.<br /> <br /> “I, um, wasn’t asking for a selfie because I know who you are. I don’t recognize you. I don’t know who you are,” I explained.<br /> <br /> The guy jutted his head back startled. As I stared, his fair skin turned pink.<br /> <br /> “Oh! Okay. Then…” he shook his head as if trying to shake something loose. “I’m sorry, why do you want a selfie with me?”<br /> <br /> “It wasn’t you. It was anybody,” I told him.<br /> <br /> “You wanted to get a selfie with anybody? Why?”<br /> <br /> I huffed as my infuriating predicament reentered my mind.<br /> <br /> “It’s my roommate. She told me that I needed to get out and have fun. She said she needed proof…”<br /> <br /> “And the selfie was going to be the proof?”<br /> <br /> “Yeah.”<br /> <br /> “So, after you took the selfie…, what? You were gonna go?”<br /> <br /> “Yeah,” I admitted suddenly deflating.<br /> <br /> The gorgeous guy looked at me like I was the freak that I am. A smile crept across his face. It would have made me feel bad about myself if it didn’t make me want to melt into a puddle in the grass.<br /> <br /> “This is going to sound crazy, but you’re here. Why not go in and actually have fun?”<br /> <br /> “I’m not good at this type of thing. You know, the social thing.”<br /> <br /> “Luckily, that’s something I’m very good at. How about we make a deal? I’ll give you your selfie as proof for your roommate, but you have to come in and actually try to have a good time. I’ll introduce you to a couple of people. That way, when your roommate asks you about the night, you won’t have to lie,” he said his face exploding into dimples.<br /> <br /> I stared at him. “Why would you do that?”<br /> <br /> He looked at me twisting his head in confusion.<br /> <br /> “Maybe I’m just being nice. Maybe I think you’re cool and that it would be cool to hang out. Maybe I’m flirting.”<br /> <br /> A chill shot through me upon hearing the word “flirting”. What was going on? Did this guy like me? Was there something happening between us? Was there going to be a naked guy in my bed full of shame when Lou got home after all?<br /> <br /> “Um, okay,” I said sure that I was turning beet-red.<br /> <br /> “Cage, by the way?”<br /> <br /> “What?”<br /> <br /> “My name.” He stared at me. “And your name is?”<br /> <br /> “Oh. Quin.”<br /> <br /> “Cool. I like that name.”<br /> <br /> “Thanks. My parents gave it to me,” I said losing control of my tongue.<br /> <br /> Cage laughed.<br /> <br /> “I mean, of course my parents gave it to me.”<br /> <br /> “Not of course. My parents didn’t give me the name Cage.”<br /> <br /> “Who did? An uncle or somebody?”<br /> <br /> “No, I did.”<br /> <br /> “So, what’s your birth name?”<br /> <br /> Cage looked at me with thoughts rushing through his head. “How about I take you inside and show you around?”<br /> <br /> “So, I guess we’re going to let that question go?”<br /> <br /> Cage chuckled uncomfortably.<br /> <br /> As he led me up the stairs, onto the porch, and then into the frat house, it was hard to take my eyes off of him. When I did, I was surprised by what I saw. I didn’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t this. The large living room was sparsely furnished but full of people. Everyone had red cups in their hand and they spoke to each other like they were friends.<br /> <br /> “It’s still pretty early,” Cage explained.<br /> <br /> “What do you mean?” I said raising my voice over the country-pop music.<br /> <br /> “There’ll be more people later.”<br /> <br /> “More than this?” I asked looking around at what felt like a horde.<br /> <br /> Cage chuckled. “Yeah.”<br /> <br /> “Cage!” A thick guy said throwing his arms around Cage spilling some of his drink onto Cage’s shirt. “Oh, did I get you?”<br /> <br /> “That’s okay,” Cage said casually. “Dan, this is Quin.”<br /> <br /> Dan turned to me and stared. “Quin!” he finally said ending the awkwardness. “Is he trying to recruit you?”<br /> <br /> “What?” I asked confused.<br /> <br /> “Is he trying to get you on the football team?”<br /> <br /> I stared at him unsure what was happening. Was he being serious? Did he think I was a boy? It’s not like that mistake hadn’t happened before. On top of everything else, the boob fairy hadn’t exactly been generous to me.<br /> <br /> But, even if he did think I was a boy, I would be a small one. I’m clearly not built like someone who ran full speed into 200-pound men.<br /> <br /> “Football team?”<br /> <br /> I turned to Cage confused.<br /> <br /> Cage smiled. “Don’t pay any attention to Dan. He’s taken a few too many hits.”<br /> <br /> “You’re welcome, by the way,” Dan said defensively.<br /> <br /> “You two are on the football team?” I asked putting things together.<br /> <br /> Dan dropped his clueless jock act and threw his arms around Cage. “No. I’m on the football team. This man is the team.”<br /> <br /> I looked at Cage for an explanation.<br /> <br /> He smiled with humility. “I’m the quarterback.”<br /> <br /> “He isn’t just the quarterback,” Dan said mockingly. “He’s the guy who’s gonna lead us to a national championship, and then he’s going pro.”<br /> <br /> “Ohhhh! Now I get it. The selfie. You thought I was asking for a selfie because you’re a famous football player.”<br /> <br /> “I’m not a famous football player,” he said quickly.<br /> <br /> “Hell yeah, he’s famous. There ain’t anybody who doesn’t know who he is,” Dan said proudly.<br /> <br /> I looked at Cage for his reaction. Cage looked back at me and chuckled uncomfortably.<br /> <br /> “Not everyone knows who I am.”<br /> <br /> “Name me one person who doesn’t,” Dan challenged.<br /> <br /> He gave me a knowing smile. “Quin, you want a drink? I think you need a drink. Follow me.”<br /> <br /> “Good meeting you, Quin,” Dan said before wandering off.<br /> <br /> “So, you’re a quarterback?”<br /> <br /> “Didn’t you hear? I’m not just a quarterback, I’m the team,” Cage said with self-deprecation.<br /> <br /> I laughed. “I heard. Are you going to go pro?”<br /> <br /> “Sure,” Cage said half-heartedly before turning to pump beer into two red cups.<br /> <br /> “You don’t sound excited.”<br /> <br /> “No. I’m excited. I can’t wait to play for the NFL. It’s, ah, everything I’ve been working towards,” he said handing me a cup and holding up his to cheers with mine. “To new friends.”<br /> <br /> I touched his cup and took a drink. “This beer is awful,” I said looking down at my cup.<br /> <br /> Cage laughed. “No, tell me what you really think.”<br /> <br /> “I mean that it’s not very good,” I explained.<br /> <br /> Cage laughed louder. “You don’t have much of a filter, do you?”<br /> <br /> I froze. That wasn’t the first time someone had said that to me. “Is that bad?”<br /> <br /> “Actually, it’s kind of refreshing.”<br /> <br /> “Oh. Okay,” I said falling for him more.<br /> <br /> “You have a nice smile.”<br /> <br /> “I didn’t realize I was smiling,” I told him.<br /> <br /> “You are,” he said looking at me with a smile of his own.<br /> <br /> “You too. It’s very nice,” I said feeling my heart thump and not knowing what to do about it.<br /> <br /> Cage stopped smiling and looked into my eyes. God did I want to kiss him.<br /> <br /> “I suppose if I ask you if you’re having fun yet, you’ll tell me the truth.”<br /> <br /> “I’m having fun,” I said moving closer in case he did want to kiss me.<br /> <br /> Cage watched me with a devilish look in his eyes. I could have sworn that he was about to move his lips towards mine when he said, “Why don’t I introduce you to a few more people.”<br /> <br /> “More people? I’ve already met two. How many more people can a person meet in a night?”<br /> <br /> “Haha. A few more than that,” he said slipping his hand around my shoulders and leading me away.<br /> <br /> Feeling his touch set something off in me that I could barely control. It was the part of me that I fought to repress. It was fighting to get out. I knew I should have been doing everything to resist it, but I didn’t want to. With it came a sense of power I had never felt before. I liked it. It made me feel… strong.<br /> <br /> In spite of how much I wanted to let go, I did my best to stay with Cage in my present form. He was leading me around the party introducing me to people. He wasn’t kidding about being good at social stuff. Everyone he introduced me to hung on his every word. And, when it was my turn to speak, they hung on my every word, too.<br /> <br /> These types of interactions had always been so hard for me. But, balancing on the surface of my spiraling emotions, this time I felt… alive.<br /> <br /> What charged me up even more was that Cage took every opportunity to touch me. He touched my shoulder when he introduced me. His pointing finger lightly rested on my forearm when he was emphasizing a point. And, standing shoulder to shoulder as if we were already a couple, he would bump his shoulder against mine when he laughed.<br /> <br /> I was on the verge of shifting by the time he was done with me. I knew that should have freaked me out. But instead I thought about what Lou had suggested. What would Cage look like naked in my bed?<br /> <br /> With one of his teammates waving his arms around telling a story, I couldn’t take my eyes off of Cage. With his full attention on his friend, Cage subtly retrieved his phone from his pocket and peaked down. Slipping it away quickly, he waited for the arm waving to die down and then looked between his friend and me.<br /> <br /> “I hate to say this, but I have to head out,” he said lightly placing his large hand on the back of my arm.<br /> <br /> “Yes, me too,” I said quickly.<br /> <br /> “Yeah? Where you headed?” He asked enthusiastically.<br /> <br /> “Back to my room.”<br /> <br /> “Where’s that?”<br /> <br /> “Plaza Hall?”<br /> <br /> “Really? I’ll go with you,” he said squeezing my arm.<br /> <br /> My heart stopped. He was coming with me? Was this it? I couldn’t believe it might finally happen. I swallowed and forced myself to speak.<br /> <br /> “Cool.”<br /> <br /> After saying a few goodbyes, the two of us exited into the night. As the cool air surrounded my hot body, I felt giddy and dangerous. I needed to hear his voice. I knew it would anchor me.<br /> <br /> Why wasn’t he saying anything? Hadn’t he claimed to be good at stuff like this? I was about to mumble something in desperation when he finally said,<br /> <br /> “It’s a clear night.”<br /> <br /> “What?”<br /> <br /> “You can see all of the stars.”<br /> <br /> I looked up. He was right. The night was perfectly clear. There was nothing between us and the light of the full moon. How had I not remembered that tonight was the full moon?<br /> <br /> It’s not like it mattered. I wasn’t a hollowing monster enslaved by it. I hadn’t shifted in years. I had long ago gotten control over myself, over my body. I was Harlequin Toro, human, not some mindless wolf…<br /> <br /> “You cold?”<br /> <br /> “What?”<br /> <br /> “You’re shivering.”<br /> <br /> I was shaking. “I guess I’m nervous,” I admitted.<br /> <br /> “What are you nervous about?”<br /> <br /> My face got hot. “I don’t know.”<br /> <br /> Cage stared at me. “You’re really pretty. Do you know that?”<br /> <br /> “So are you. I mean, you’re good-looking not pretty,” I told him shaking even more.<br /> <br /> Cage chuckled. “Thanks. Are you happy you came out tonight?”<br /> <br /> “Yeah, definitely,” I said fighting not to show him how much.<br /> <br /> “We’re here,” he said as we approached the door of my building.<br /> <br /> “We’re here,” I repeated my heart pounding. “Do you want to come in?”<br /> <br /> “Come in?” Cage asked caught off guard.<br /> <br /> “Yes,” I replied struggling not to pounce him right there.<br /> <br /> “Ahhhh,” he murmured before the door popped open and a girl came out.<br /> <br /> “Cage!” She said before wrapping her arms around him and standing on her tiptoes to kiss his lips.<br /> <br /> My mouth dropped open in shock. What was going on? What had just happened?<br /> <br /> The petite, blonde with angular features turned towards me. “Who’s this?”<br /> <br /> “Ah, this is Quin. Quin this is Tasha.”<br /> <br /> Tasha looked at me suspiciously while Cage became uncomfortable.<br /> <br /> “Tasha is my girlfriend.”<br /> <br /> “How do you know Cage?” Tasha asked me.<br /> <br /> I was too shocked by everything to speak.<br /> <br /> “Quin had asked me for a selfie.”<br /> <br /> Tasha turned to Cage surprised. “Oh. Did you give her one?”<br /> <br /> “Not yet,” Cage said with a smile.<br /> <br /> “I can take it,” Tasha volunteered. “Give me your phone,” she said approaching me with her hand out.<br /> <br /> Still speechless, I handed her my phone and stood next to Cage.<br /> <br /> “Say cheese,” she said.<br /> <br /> “Cheese,” Cage replied while I stared back stunned.<br /> <br /> “Here you go,” she said handing me back my phone. “Check it.”<br /> <br /> I looked down and saw my full humiliation on display. “Yes.”<br /> <br /> “Okay. Let’s go. I’m hungry,” Tasha said entwining her body with Cage’s and pulling him away.<br /> <br /> “It was nice meeting you, Quin,” he said looking at me as he left.<br /> <br /> “Nice meeting… you,” I mumbled sure that he could no longer hear me.<br /> <br /> I watched as the perfectly suited couple walked off. Of course, he had a girlfriend. And, of course, she looked like that. My heart hurt watching them go.<br /> <br /> I can’t believe I thought he wanted to be with me. No one ever wanted to be with me. How could I have been so foolish? How could I think a guy like him would be interested in a girl like me?<br /> <br /> Once the two had disappeared into the darkness, I entered the building. Ascending the stairs in a daze, I felt like I was going to explode. Why didn’t anyone ever like me back? Why didn’t Cage like me?<br /> <br /> I couldn’t take this anymore. My skin vibrated with a ferocity I hadn’t felt in years. When I finally realized what was going on, it was too late.<br /> <br /> “Oh no. No, no, no, no, no,” I said in a panic.<br /> <br /> As I bound up the stairs, the world around me drifted further away. I needed to lock myself up. I couldn’t believe this. It had been years. Why now? Why here?<br /> <br /> Approaching my dorm room door, I smelled the last thing I wanted to smell or expected. Lou was home. Why was she home? Didn’t she say she had a date?<br /> <br /> I didn’t want her to see me like this. I didn’t want to terrify her with the truth of who I was. I didn’t want to accidently kill her.<br /> <br /> Was this how my mother died? Had I lost control and ripped out her throat? I was too young to remember. But a three-year-old child and a three-year-old wolf are different. If I let it, would the beast inside of me take away another person I cared about?<br /> <br /> No, I couldn’t let it. I had to get behind closed doors as quickly as I could. Scrambling for my keys I flung open the door and charged in.<br /> <br /> “Aren’t you supposed to be out finding yourself a guy?” She said as I rushed by her for my room. “Quin, what’s wrong?”<br /> <br /> As my bedroom door closed behind me and I searched for the padlock for the latch I installed, I finally lost control and did what I prayed for years that I wouldn’t do. The feeling was torture. It all came rushing back.<br /> <br /> A prickly feeling washed over me igniting every nerve in my body. My muscle clamped into the worst cramp you could imagine. And as my muscles pulled apart and ate itself, my bones snapped under the strain of it.<br /> <br /> Mercifully, that was when I passed out. This was how it happened when I was a kid. At least it started that way. Because as a kid, I would black out in one location and wake up naked and covered in blood somewhere else.<br /> <br /> My father often tested the blood to make sure none of it was human. It never was. But, every so often pictures of missing cats would end up posted around our upstate New York home.<br /> <br /> Our neighbors knew what I was so they had their suspicions but they would never know for sure. The only person to ever see me shift was my father. And it wasn’t until he determined that I, and my wolf, wasn’t a threat that we moved back to the Manhattan apartment where my mother had died.<br /> <br /> This shift wasn’t like any I had had when I was a kid, though. This time I woke up in my room in the dark. It felt like one of those instances when you wake up to learn that you can’t move your body. I was conscious, fully conscious. But I was pacing in my room very close to the ground and it felt like I was being taken for a ride.<br /> <br /> As much as I tried, I couldn’t stop myself. My dresser whipped by me in rapid succession and as I entertained the sounds around me, I heard a wild panting. Oh no, I was in it. I was the monster.<br /> <br /> The only way I had been able to come to terms with who I was was by convincing myself that I wasn’t it and it wasn’t me. I wasn’t the one who killed my mother. It was. It was dangerous and brutal. I was not.<br /> <br /> Yet, here I was disproving everything I held onto for my own sanity. I was awake, though not in control, and I was experiencing the world around me as if it were my own.<br /> <br /> “Quin, are you alright?” a faint voice said just outside my door.<br /> <br /> As if set on fire, my wolf went wild. It bulleted to the door and attacked it as if fighting to break through.<br /> <br /> “Oh no, the latch. I didn’t lock it,” I remembered flooded with dread.<br /> <br /> As soon as I said it, my eyes turned towards the door handle and it clawed at it. It heard me and it was fighting to get out. If it got out it would kill Lou. I was sure of it. It would kill everyone in its path until someone put it down or it ran away.<br /> <br /> This was my greatest nightmare come true. It was why I locked myself away never wanting to come out. It was everything I had feared.<br /> <br /> Wait! It heard me! That’s how it knew to go after the lock. If it heard me say that, then…<br /> <br /> “Stop it! You will not attack my friend. You won’t do to her what you did to my mother!”<br /> <br /> As if frozen in place, it stopped. Standing still, sadness washed through my mind. It wasn’t me feeling it. It was the wolf. It was thinking about what it had done to my mom. Regret filled it. Somehow I knew it hadn’t meant to. And as if calmed by the tragedy, it slowly back away from the door and whimpered.<br /> <br /> My wolf was crying. It knew how much it had lost that day as much as I did. It also knew that it was her fault. Both of us had grown up without a mother because of it. Death hadn’t been my wolf’s intention. It had acted impulsively and unexpected things had happened.<br /> <br /> Without asking it to, the wolf walked in front of my full length mirror. It was dark, but the wolf’s eyes were more sensitive than mine. I could make out her reflection clearly. I was 20 and just approaching adulthood. The wolf staring back at me was much older than that.<br /> <br /> I had only seen video of it before. Back then it was of a much younger wolf. This one looked calmer and maybe even a little wiser than the one pacing back and forth in my father’s safety room. Was it different than the one that had terrorized my world all of those years ago?<br /> <br /> Maybe it was. Maybe I didn’t know this wolf at all. Maybe I didn’t know myself. Who would I be if I wasn’t so scared of what I would become?<br /> <br /> *****<br /> <br /> Get it now to keep reading!<br /> _______<br /> <br /> AUDIOBOOK LISTENERS - Get this audiobook for free by signing up for a free trial of Audible by clicking here: <a href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fadbl.co%2F3i37z85&h=AT31if2ru1k-vG-T2fvOedEsLXL9b5TMgtLDfw71MI3I1WeMEM-Hf2wK4NKWg6g6KNaYZz95avbmSodXNmPtV2ysaKFBCNOJV7G-408nTy8x4QLWK3Vu305Q6B4gjYGM2k8G62lPiPICm0Euw0MtRVfkb04" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" data-lynx-mode="asynclazy">https://adbl.co/3i37z85</a> | LEARN_MORE | https://www.amazon.com/dp/B099X8BP5J?maas=maas_adg | 337827106228528 | Alex Anders Author Page | https://facebook.com/AlexAndersBooks | 923 | 3 | 1,464,232,721,163,908 | 2024-03-26 02:00 | regular_page | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Alex Anders Author Page | 6588946257153 | amazon.com | NONE | image | Her Caged Wolf: Fated Mates Wolf Shifter Romance - Anthology (Wolf Falls Book 1) | https://www.amazon.com/dp/B099X8BP5J?maas=maas_adg_CFC1DEA07D6E6B1102EEAD99592B1D04_afap_abs&ref_=aa_maas&tag=maas | 2024-03-26 10:54 | https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433209072_335957148949237_5682952944033929020_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=108&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=u6hacST00x4AX8SnmUp&_nc_ht=scontent-sjc3-1.xx&oh=00_AfBUEx5uShUcbD6nOHmK6FkMTvkXLS3lbEcyQsCSssQF4A&oe=660A76B3 | person_profile | 0 | Alex Anders Author Page | https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433045157_436435725706492_1742279467936734067_n.jpg?_nc_cat=109&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=-GnakT8JD5sAX_hagAM&_nc_ht=scontent-sjc3-1.xx&oh=00_AfCNZnSuq-B4b_NwiF0AnHwdgtyk4uAC2y7HIN_mLp5xBQ&oe=6609D6C2 | 0 | 3 | Alex Anders Author Page | 0 | 0 | 2024-03-26 02:00 | View Edit Delete |
