Chapter 74
Jenna’s P.O.V.
Finding out the truth about my uncle had left me in a state of shock, the awful truth about him keeping my mother’s letters from me, was unraveling before my eyes life a nightmare I just couldn’t escape. The weight of this knowledge lay heavy on my shoulders, and I needed solace, a refuge from the storm of emotions that threatened to consume me.
I made my way to Adam’s house. The familiar path that I had driven so many times by now, seemed like an unfamiliar journey into the unknown right now. I just needed Adam, his presence, and the reassurance that only he could provide. God… I just needed to feel his arms around me and the sound of his voice telling me everything would be alright.
As I arrived at the Miller house, I was greeted by Eluna who opened the door after I had rang the doorbell.
“Hey. Adam’s isn’t back from Gran’s yet.” She told me as she op

My gaze remained fixed on the men standing in the moonlit clearing, their expressions unreadable as Blade started to look around out of nowhere, his head yanking in all directions as he looked alarmed, as if somehow, he could sense me staring at them. I couldn’t tear my gaze away from the window that had given me this shocking view. My hands trembled as I was holding on to the mug, and my breath came in short, shallow gasps. It felt like I had stumbled into a world of secrets and mysteries that I could never have imagined. And just like that, it felt as if time slowed down around me. Adam’s eyes locked onto mine, and I saw the moment of realization dawn in his beautiful brown eyes. His expression was a mixture of surprise and pure panic, and he started to move toward the house, his steps quickening as they turned into running.I stood frozen, unable to tear my gaze away from the approaching figure of Adam. A whirlwind of emotions churned within me. F

Adam’s P.O.V.As Jenna walked away from the house, each step that she took away from me felt like a heavy blow to my heart. The moon cast a cold, silvery glow on the path before her, and her figure grew smaller and smaller until she stepped into her car and disappeared into the night completely.And I fucking let her go...Because all that time, I had just stood there, rooted in place, the weight of her absence pressing down on me. The truth had torn us apart, and I couldn’t help but feel that I had let the love of my life slip through my fingers by keeping this secret from her. My one true mate. The one that my wolf needed, in order to survive.The pain of her departure was like a knife being pressed deep into my chest, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that I had lost her forever by her finding out the secret I had kept hidden from her, especially in the way that she had discovered the truth.

“Eluna,” I sighed, reaching out to place a hand on her shoulder,“This isn’t your fault. You were just being a good host, and I appreciate that. But I was too reckless, too careless to show my wolf out in the open like I did. I should have been more careful, especially with the possibility of Jenna being around now. If it wouldn’t have happened tonight, it would have happened another night.” I spoke as she looked at me, her eyes welling up with tears.“I just don’t want to see you hurting, Adam. You love Jenna so much, and I can’t bear to see you suffer like this. For the first time since I can remember, you looked so happy. And I can't see you go downhill again.” She admitted as I offered her a reassuring smile, despite feeling dead on the inside.“I know you care about me, Eluna, and I appreciate that. But right now, I need to focus on finding a way to make Jenna understand why I did

Adam’s P.O.V.It was a cloudy day, even for summer, casting eerie shadows across the empty road as I clenched the steering wheel of my old pickup truck. The events of last night replayed like a cruel nightmare in my mind, and I couldn’t escape the guilt that gnawed at my heart. Jenna, the love of my life, had discovered my secret, that I was a werewolf. The raw pain in her eyes as she had fled from my house was etched into my memory, and it was tearing me apart.Raindrops began to patter against the windshield, matching the drumbeat of my racing heart. I had spent the entire night in my room, forcing myself and my wolf not to run after her, my thoughts a whirlwind of confusion, self-loathing, and regret. But as the storm clouds gathered overhead this morning, I knew I couldn’t hide any longer. I needed to see Jenna, to explain myself to her, to beg for her forgiveness, or at least try to talk to her.With every mile

“Gorgeous?” I stammered, my voice trembling as I couldn't look away from the luggage as if it was a death sentence.“What’s the suitcase for?”Jenna hesitated, her eyes downcast.“I… I need some distance, some time away to figure things out. I can’t stay here right now.” She said as her own voice cracked.NO!no, no, no, no!My heart shattered into a million pieces. I had hoped for the chance to rebuild our relationship, but now it seemed like that chance was slipping away.“Are you… are you leaving me?” I asked, my voice barely audible.Jenna’s tears flowed freely now as she nodded.“I don’t know if we can ever go back to the way things were between us.” She said.“I need to find myself again, and you ne

Jenna’s P.O.V.I sat on the edge of Jules' cozy couch, staring out of the rain-splattered window. It had been a full week since I had left Adam, and my heartache still clung to me like a relentless shadow. Despite my best efforts to try and move on, the weight of the past and the uncertainty of the future pressed down on me.Jules bustled about the room like she always did, her vivacious energy a big contrast to my melancholy. She had been my best friend since we moved into the same dorm in college. She basically knew me better than anyone. Maybe that was why I had decided to come to her. She could tell when I was lost in thought, and she wasn’t the person who would allow me to wallow in sadness. Which is probably why she twirled around before plopping down beside me, her bright smile the only cheerfulness in the room.“Girl, you’ve been moping around like a sad puppy for a week now,” she said

Another hour later, I was sitting alone on the sofa since Jules had to head out to go to work. The weight of my revelations from the conversation was heavy on my shoulders. The letters from my mother that my uncle had hidden from me had opened a door to my family’s hidden past, and I realized that I needed to confront my own secrets and demons, before I could even try to move forward with Adam. I knew that giving him a chance to explain himself, was the first step, but it was a step I had been hesitant to take. The pain of his deception still lingered, and I couldn’t ignore that he had kept something so monumental from me, making me doubt if he had ever trusted me in our relationship. Yet, deep down, I felt a connection to Adam that went beyond his hidden truth.I sighed, as my phone vibrated in my purse. Even though I hadn’t contacted Adam myself, he had sent me a text every day, as if he was afraid that if he didn’t text me, I would for

Tears streamed down my cheeks as I finished reading the letter, my emotions a turbulent sea of grief, understanding, and even gratitude. Uncle Ben’s actions had been motivated by love, not selfishness. But by a desire to shield me from the pain and chaos of addiction. He had sacrificed his relationship with my mother to ensure that I had a better chance at a better life. A life without the destruction an addicted parent could bring.It was a profound message of love and faith in my future, a gift that my uncle had left behind to ensure my well-being and happiness. The weight of my mother’s abandonment had been a heavy burden, but my uncle had tried to provide me with the love and support I had needed all along. At that moment, I felt a deep sense of closure and a newfound appreciation for the man who had raised me.
