SARA POV (YEAR 2077, 56 YRS LATER)
"Now he is a fine chunk of meat. I can see why all the girls want him," the older waitress says as she appears next to me.
I quickly close my worn book. My cheeks tint a little, and I give her a small smile.
"I still can't believe they are real even though my friend's granddaughter is mated to one of them," she says while refilling my mug with fresh coffee.
I nod, still feeling slightly embarrassed, and she chuckles.
"Of course, you grew up in a world that included them. My generation were the ones who got the shock of a lifetime," she says while observing me with a steady gaze.
I offer her another smile before breaking my silence.
"Yeah. I find their history very interesting. It's what I am currently studying in s

AMBER POV "Breath, mouse. There is nothing else you can do," Lucian says as he comes up from behind and hugs me. I shake my head back and forth as I fight back the tears. Every night is the same. I make a few new werewolves, I pair some mates, and then I rewatch how Octavius's day went on my new portal bowl that Anniki made me. And every night, I cry as I watch my son grow more and more bitter towards the world. "I don't think he will find this one either, Lucian. I don't know what to do. His wolf should be feeling the pull. I paired them when she turned eighteen. I fear he is ignoring it just like he did last time. I even put this one right outside their territory. All he has to do is leave his office," I say before spinning around and burying my face in my mate's chest. "Maybe it would be easier for hi

OCTAVIUS POV The pen clatters as I drop it on my desk again. I have nothing left to do tonight. I have finished all the paperwork for today, and if I start tomorrow's paperwork, I will have less to do tomorrow. I will be even more bored.Beerus- We could hunt. The meat in the kitchen is always the same. Cold...Octavius- I don't want to, B. Besides, you forget our territory isn't wild terrain anymore. It is filled to the brim with homes for our members.Beerus- why don't you want to? Why are you forcing us to live like this?I roll my eyes at the old question.Octavius- I will not repeat myself. This is our life. I have accepted it. Now you need to as well. We were meant to be King. We were not meant for love or family.Beerus- That's bullshit, Octavius. I know you feel it, just like before. We have a

Sara POV Have you ever had a jaw-dropping moment in public? Like a full-on mouth falls open, and you stare at the thing that has made you lose all control for an undisclosed amount of time. Well, I have. "...So we must ask that everyone be on their best behavior," Professor Taylor finishes acting like he didn't just shock the entire class with his announcement. My brain reloads as he sits down at his desk, and my hand shoots into the air. "Yes," he asks, and I clear my throat nervously. "So King Octavius will be coming here...to this college...today," I ask, and a few girls snicker at me. The professor literally just said the King, along with a few of the other higher-ups, would

SARA POV Oh my God! Oh my God. It's him. It's really him.At least, I think it's him. In his pictures, he always looks so stoic, but right now, he seems like he is walking on clouds.He can't be this excited to tour human colleges, can he? Other humans have documented him as being nothing but cold when interviewed. But there is no denying that face. This man is Octavius Bishop. Maybe he values education, and that's why he looks delighted to be here. His eyes scan the room, and when they land on me, he smiles, like really smiles. His eyes light up, and I swear my heart misses a few beats. He is the sexiest man I have ever seen, and he is smiling at me. Good thing I put on mascara this morning."Hello, I was told this is a class that studies supernaturals," he says as he walks towards Professor Taylor with his hand outstretched.

OCTAVIUS POV My heartbeat races as my mate finally stops screaming. For the longest time, Jannah being attacked by a bear was the scariest moment of my life, but now there is a new scariest moment. My mate screaming out in pain because of something I did will haunt me for the rest of my unnaturally long life. Feeling as if she might die from that pain will star in every one of my nightmares. As I study her appearance, I feel worse. Her once slick blackish-brown hair is now frizzy and messy. Her beautiful olive skin has a thin layer of sweat, and her beautiful almond brown eyes look petrified. It makes me sick to my stomach to know I did all that with one little sentence."Sara, are you okay," Jannah asks as she offers Sara her hand. Sara takes one look at the friendly g

Sara POV I look over my shoulder yet again as I walk home. A deep shiver runs down my spine, and I rub my arm to comfort myself. Ever since I ran from King Octavius and his friends, I have felt nervous. I haven't even been back to class because I am afraid they will come back to hurt me. The only reason I am outside my apartment now is because Floki was out of food. Luckily for me, I am almost home. I pull my key card from my pocket as I leave the elevator, only to freeze midstep when I see someone standing in the hall right by my door. My heartbeat doubles for a second, and my breathing becomes ragged before I realize it is just my lowlife father standing in front of my door. "What do you want, dad," I ask after I calm down, and he spins around to face me, looking a little crazy. "Sara, where have you been? W

OCTAVIUS POV "Human females are sensitive. Anything you say can make one of them cry," Garretts says in a duh-like voice, and I growl. He knows I have no idea about females in general. Human or werewolf, I know nothing. But he doesn't have to act like I am dumb. "Easy. I'm only trying to help remember," Garrett says, and I nod before landing a soft elbow to the side of his head. He grunts from the impact and moves around me to try and find an opening. "I'm pointing out that she is sensitive, and that's why she cried. She probably feels your bond even though she doesn't have a wolf. My mate felt ours, and your mom made your bond much stronger than ours," Garrett says as he fakes a kick to my hip area.

SARA POV I sigh as another female classmate stops in front of my spot. I look up reluctantly, and she gives me a small smile. "What was he like," she asks while lifting her eyebrows suggestively, and I force myself not to roll my eyes. It has been like this ever since I came back to class. The rumors surrounding what happened between me and the visiting werewolves have been wild. Other students have been nonstop with their questions, and my patience is wearing thin. Especially since the questions typically pertain to sex. "I have no idea what King Octavius is like. I did not have sex with him. We had a brief conversation that ended with me getting scared. I left the school and hid away for a few days. Now I am back," I answer for the hundredth time and the curious glint in her eyes vanishes. "So you
