LenoraI expected some form of hostility from my new family members after CJ went on the trip. But they surprised me beyond my imagination by avoiding me like the plague. I didn't realize how lonely I was until now. I tried to dismiss them as unworthy of my attention, but it sucked to be cut off. No one, not even the maids, was talking to me. I used books, TV, and the Internet to escape, and I often talked to myself.I knew that being too friendly would come across as desperate as if I couldn't do without them. So, I resigned and ignored the ache in my heart. They went shopping together, had dinner together, and even celebrated India's daughter's birthday without inviting me.The only person who had a semblance of remorse was Mariselle. She was not a bad person, and I knew that deep down, she truly cared about me. If I were in her shoes, I would do the same and pick my mother over a friend. Whenever I walked past her, she couldn't even look me in the eye. And the few times I caught h

Mariselle I was mentally numb and paralyzed, feeling a ringing in my ears when Lenora walked past me. I didn't understand what was going on and why my mom was suddenly acting friendly towards her, especially knowing how much my mum disliked her.But because I was in a very good mood, I had never felt so much happiness before. I didn't really think about it when I came back from a birthday party and saw them coming back from shopping.I had become a mini-celebrity in the park, and every girl wanted to hang out with me, so last week, they invited me to Amy's birthday party. After my dad had made sure that it was safe to go, I accepted the invite. Amy turned 19 and was a very outgoing girl, one of the few friends I had made, even though I couldn't categorize any as my friend, and none of them shared the same bond I had with Lenora.I really missed her, and I didn't think I could connect with anyone as I did with her. No matter how hard I tried to ignore the longing feeling, I couldn't b

CJExcited to be back home, joy bubbled in my heart, and I was blissfully happy as I stepped out of the van. The familiarity of the pack house embraced me.I was glad for the success of the tribal meeting. Seeing several other alphas after a decade made my heart sing with delight. They all had something good to say about me, especially for defeating Giovanni and picking up the pieces of my life to start all over."It went well?" Harrison asked the question as a statement, and I nodded while he helped with my suitcase."Let's hope we enjoy peace for a long time. It doesn't mean we shouldn't watch out for the enemies. I know not all are happy for me."He filled me in on the latest happenings when I got distracted on sighting Lenora. Her innocence and beauty were so wholesome, like summer lightning.The beginning of a smile tipped the corner of her mouth, and I felt my body go warm, and my heart lurched madly. Each time I saw her, the pull of love I felt tripled."Hi, baby," I winked, ta

Lenora My heart pounded loudly in my chest. All my life, I'd never felt such confusing thoughts. It made every part of my body shake, and the fearful images of Kia drowning because of me built in my mind. It was a disturbing thought, and just thinking about it shattered me because I was never going to forgive myself.This was too much for me to bear. I was standing a little way back from the scene beside Mariselle, who was screaming and crying at the top of her lungs. My legs felt weak and unsteady as if the ground beneath me was shaking.Everyone gathered around while Kia stood precariously close to the edge. And I could almost feel the chill of the river water. Without thinking, I rushed forward."Please, Kia," my voice broke. "Don't do this. I'll never forgive myself if you do." She looked at me with a dull and troubled gaze."Why should I listen to you?" She lowered her voice, being purposefully mysterious. People gathered behind us, and the air faded to a hushed stillness."I w

Lenora CJ looked at me, shaking his head in disappointment. But I was already determined to leave. I felt an overwhelming shock and sorrow when he booked my flight and took me to the airport.Not wanting to spend any more seconds with him, I looked away from his hazel eyes filled with pain and unspoken emotions."Are you really doing this?" He asked me, his gaze clouded.I clipped my mouth shut. His hand grazed my bare arm, and I flinched, pulling away."CJ, please…""Please? Are you seriously leaving me? Have you given up on us?"My heart broke at the sound of his voice. I'd never seen CJ look so crushed before, and it hurt the depths of my soul.It was time to leave, and when I was heading to the terminal, I couldn't look at his face. It was better that way."Lemora," he called. "Is there anything I can do to change your mind? Any sacrifice you want me to make? I can relocate and…""Stop talking, CJ," I cried. "This isn't about you. It's about me, my mental health, my sanity, my pe

CJEver since Lenora walked out my front door, all I felt was despair and defeat. My wolf hated me for letting our mate go, and I felt an acute sense of loss. I couldn't accept the fact that she'd left all because of Kia's master plan. Her absence felt like a piece of my soul was missing, and I couldn't focus on anything else no matter how hard I tried.Sighing, I headed to the wine pantry. My fingers brushed over the bottles, eventually settling on an alcoholic red wine. The light-bodied drink was too fruity and had no effect on me, yet with trembling hands, I took glass after glass, trying to escape Lenora's memories, the warmth of her smile, and the sparkle in her eyes.I loved that girl too much to let her go. A choked, desperate laugh escaped my lips. Kia had been trying to act normal, like she was an innocent bystander in the chaos, pretending she didn't plot this out carefully, but it was all too obvious.Seeing her face pissed me off so badly that I growled low in my throat a

LenoraOn my way downstairs, everything around me went fuzzy, and I kept coughing and sneezing, growing weaker by the second.I didn't understand what was happening to me. Each step was a tremendous effort to descend, and my vision blurred as if a thick fog had covered my eyes.Clutching the handrail, I tried to support myself, but my leg gave way suddenly, and with a gasp, I fell. It felt like being dragged down an endless abyss. My arms and legs flailed out in panic, trying to grab something or anyone, anything that would stop my fall. All they could find, however, was air.The impact sent sharp pain through my chest that made me cry out in pain. I was dizzy again as I struggled to get back up so I could continue my journey down to find my dad."Somebody help," I cried, feeling tremors all over my body and seeing spots in my vision.Everything around me closed in, and I could hardly breathe anymore; it seemed like all the air had been sucked from my lungs. My heart started racing, a

MariselleI sat at my desk in the bustling lecture hall, hating the chaos all around me. My classmates were so noisy, and it was quite different from Brookville Uni because of the different energy levels.Here, people shifted into their wolf form freely and were wild as hell. I tapped my pencil on my notebook, wishing they could just shut up for a minute.But then, my sour mood wasn't their fault. It was all thanks to my mother, whom I thought was perfect and would never hurt a fly.But now, I realize that the ten years of staying alone with my dad were way better than this unpredictable stranger we were living with. My gaze wandered to the window, with my mind consumed by several fearful thoughts."Lenora," I muttered into my hands. This secret was bigger than me, and if I didn't say anything fast, my head was going to explode.I tried to squeeze out more information from India, but she pretended not to know what I was talking about. The sly woman was a big ass licker, who would do e

CJThe second Kia admitted to poisoning Lenora, my world crumbled around me. If I hadn't noticed the bad energy between mother and child, I would have thought she was being sarcastic.My backbone stiffened, and a quick, sharp breath escaped my nostrils. Staring wordlessly at Kia, she kept on ranting about how Lenora deserved what she got.The shock caused me to stumble and almost lose balance. I perched on one of the cream-colored sofas, feeling like all the oxygen was sucked out of my lungs as I took in the shocking words.The anger that welled up inside me for days simmered, and I turned sharply to face Harrison."Did you know about this?" I asked with a voice colder than the grave.Harrison shook his head, looking so panicked. "I swear to you on our father's name that I have no hand or idea of this. I don't like the girl, but I would never be privy to such evil. Believe me, CJ."He looked up into my eyes, pleading. My hands clenched into fists, and I jumped to my feet, choking back

LenoraI didn't need anyone to tell me that I was dying. This unhealthy condition weakened my body, and my illness had gone full-blown. I'd even become drug-resistant because of it, and the doctors still hadn't come up with something.Every part of my body ached with painful sores all over my body. It was a horrible, nightmarish mystery that nobody could understand. No amount of medicine I had taken could bring relief from the terrible pain.All the doctors and nurses did was poke and prod at me in the hopes that they would get some kind of clue and discover a cure for me. My mind, too, had been going through hell, and I wasn't sure whether I should believe my delusions or not.Never in my life had I felt such intensity of pain in my abdomen. My body was failing me, and I was bleeding from my gastrointestinal tract.Feeling foggy and attempting to distract myself from the painful discomfort, I lay still. It was almost impossible for me to speak, and I was lying in the dreadful hospita
