(Undergoing editing)**GWEN**At first, I was dumbstruck by the words as they hit my ears. Then, came the excitement, the innermost excitement of hearing him say them to me at the most unexpected time. Was he serious? He loved me? He truly ttiky loved me or he was only seeking a way to get to me. It make me open the door."I mean it," He confirmed, as though reading my mind. And there was so much eagerness in his voice that numbed every doubt in my head and had me rushing to fling open the door at once.There he was still sitting, his face morphed into elation to show the level of content that came from making such huge confession. He didn't hold back."You do?" Tears were still in my eyes, albeit, they seemed frozen."I have never been more certain, baby. I didn't even know when it happened." He rose to his knees, him before me, humble as I have never seen him before. "Slowly, you drove into my core, cutting off defense severity built over the years and the funniest part is I didn't

(Undergoing editing)**ASHTON**The border check with the team took longer than anticipated. And by the time we were through, twilight had befallen on us. I was impatient, my mind and body already far from here as I excused myself form them and made my way home. I missed.my nate so much and after last night, I do not want to spend a moment away from her.Since last night, it had been a new level of peace. I told her, I fucekn expressed my feelings to her and it was not as bad as I had envisioned. I always knew all along. From the first day, I met her that she would have me this way. That was why I was scared and did everything possible to make her leave. And I am glad it didn't work.After our exchange at the dining room and I blurted that statement, I regretted it. However, the regret came after the blunder. I never supposed I would stoop low to say that to her. After all, we weren't sure where the issue stemmed from. It could even be from me.Thanks to Striker, it was not long and

**GWEN**Somebody wake me up from this slumber that I was. It appears I have been fantasizing a lot lately that I was starting to live in my head.Repeatedly, I delved at Merit, not giving her a chance to attack me. She was also transformed now and from the feral look in her eyes, she was ready to maul me. But guess what, bitch? Today was judgment day!Whatever this is that possessed me, it was something despicable. Absolutely not me. It was unforgiving and not willing to slow down. From the look of things, it was aiming to destroy Merit, and if no one stopped us, someone was definitely going to die today."ENOUGH!" I heard someone thunder. A very powerful human, but this thing possessing me didn't let me stop for one second. It caught Merit by the neck and just when I leaned in to chop off her neck, hands grabbed me and snatched me off the bitch.I struggled, my rage redirected towards the person that dared to hamper my moment, and paused when my eyes rounded on Ashton. He looked at

**GWEN**"Wait!" Tyler said, his left hand covering his engorged shaft as his right hushed Abby, taking a step toward me and then he stopped. "Gwen?"My ears perked. How did he know it was me?I growled, lifting my frigid muzzle in the air. I twirled around, swished my tail, bent my upper body lower with my eyes at them, and then I stood and howled into the air.Tyler snickered, the sides of his eyes creased in genuine happiness. Hold on, let's not get ahead of ourselves. They still had explanations to give."I don't get," Abby grabbed the bed cover nearby and wrapped around her body, her focus returning to me. "I can't believe this! Gwen, shift back this minute and explain why you are in a wolf form. I thought you said you haven't transformed yet.""She might have transformed recently." Tyler defended me, taking the other milkish silk cover to wrap loosely around his waist."She was just here yesterday." Abby eyed me. "Why do you think she's the one?"Hey, I am still here! I said in

**GWEN**"Are you okay, sweetheart?" my mother asked the minute she saw me walking into the living room. From her outward appearance and the manner she was gawking at Mousy, I could tell if I hadn't arrived at this point, something drastic would have taken place. Mousy at seeing me, sighed in relief and stalked out of the room while sending me a secret gratitude smile. "I'm fine, Mom," I tentatively touched her palm placed on my left cheek. My eyes sweet around the room at everyone, still trying to agree that this was happening. "Baby, come here." My mom hugged me once more. "I don't care whatever it was that made you leave, I am thoroughly, in fact overly happy to see you again.""Me too, mother." I forced myself to live in the moment and forget about Ashton even though for now. I pushed away from her and pressed my hand down my gown in a wiping gesture. I was nervous. "Have you been seen to your rooms?""That cunt of a man won't even let us leave the room!" My sister thundered fro
