She stopped breathing as soon as she saw him.He was perfect, his jaw covered by a neatly cut beard that accentuated his masculinity. His long hair was tied behind his head, with a free lock shorter than the rest falling just above his left eye, and his green eyes so fixed on hers that she was caught in a trance.It was you, she whispered to herself.“What did you say, Alpha?” He asked, a slight smile spreading on one side of his face, giving her a glimpse into the array of his white teeth.His question threw her off balance, both because she was surprised that he heard, and because he called her Alpha.“I'm not the Alpha.” She corrected him.“But you sit where he sat, which means he's put you in charge.”“Yes he has. Welcome.”“Thank you.” He finished, his face returning to the countenance of one serious, all traces of the charming smile he'd just beamed at her disappearing. “I was here the day before yesterday, and we were speaking on a collaboration he wanted between us, where the

Even as Jenny lay in bed that night, she had her mind set on what the next day would bring.Her eyes were on the ceiling, but she saw nothing of the shadows that lay there whenever the lights were turned off. All she had her mind on was seeing if this Lycan was the one who saved her, the Stranger.She knew she didn't have to be thinking about him. Tony had done enough damage to her, but she also liked to think that she was driven by curiousity, to see the man who left her with that piece of cloth. Even then, she went to take it from where she left it, only remembering that she had thrown it outside her window, trying not to think of him again.The regret that filled her insides was matched with few things in her life. How could she have known that what she was running away from wood be waiting for her where she found shelter?The next day, she hovered around her father's waiting room, finding an excuse to be there. She wanted to know when he came in, and see his face before he rememb

Her curiosity led her to the waiting room, where her father sat with another visitor.The man sat close to him and with his back to her, so that she could not see who he was at first glance. They were both so engrossed in what they were speaking of in their low voices that neither noticed her from where she stood for about a minute.It took her father raising his head before he caught her standing near the door, watching the both of them.“Jenny,” he called out to her, baring his teeth in a broad smile. “For how long have you been standing there?”“Quite a while,” Jenny replied, moving from where she had been standing as she moved closer to him. Her mind was occupied with a feeling of melancholy for her father, with her remembering that in his younger Alpha days, when he was much more powerful, he would have known she was watching her from the moment she started coming into the waiting room. His werewolf instincts had been that sharp and acute.Her thoughts were interrupted by the man

As she took the flight home, a strange kind of elation filled her.She felt like a lost queen returning to take her kingdom back after being away for so long, and her hurting heart felt something beyond the pain of being a rejected bride, and an unwanted Luna. It felt peaceful, and she knew that the moment she walked past the doors of her house, she would be fine, and not need to worry about Alpha Tony, Cheyenne, or their baby anymore. What mattered was that she was at home.She soon got off the plane and went into the taxi sent over for her. It took her home, and there her mother stood, watching with smiles on their wrinkled faces.Jenny had made a promise to herself to not cry or do anything to let them know how much pain she had gone through since the rejection at the wedding, but as soon as she fell into her mother's arms, the tears came falling. Nothing could have stopped them then, especially when she was aware that she was in a place of comfort.“He left me, mother. Alpha T

Jenny had to leave for her own peace, hoping they did not notice her.She left the restaurant after asking her friends to send the bill, rushed into her car, sat behind the steering wheel, and began to cry, her inner wolf whining with her. Just when everything was coming together for her and she thought she was stable once again — then everything had come crashing down for her again, and this time, she was broken to find out about her step-sister's betrayal.How could all of it have happened under her nose without her knowing?She clearly remembered how she introduced them to each other at a family event Alpha Tony followed her to, and she had basked in the respect and attention everyone showered on him as he was among the most powerful Alphas around, only a little below her father. It must have been the moment she orchestrated her own downfall, because the mood got to her head, and she had gone around with her arm in his, introducing her lover to everyone as Alpha Anthony Martin, o

After that, Alpha Tony's desertion did not hurt as much.Her attempted suicide had now come off as a stupid decision to her, a thing she should never have done. It was as though a blindfold was taken off her eyes, and she could now see that he would not have cared much if she had killed herself.He had left her on their wedding day for his new lover, whom he said was pregnant. What would it matter to him if she threw herself off a chasm?All her crying and reliving scenes she should have been trying to forget stopped after that night, and she felt the pain in her chest lessen. Slowly, she regained her confidence, and even wanted to do things that would make her laugh.All this time, one thing gnawed at her.Who was the mysterious stranger that saved her life?She would have died after throwing herself off, without any doubt, and in his attempt to save her, he fell into danger himself. She got him out, and he offered her his shoulder to cry on, only to dare to leave without as much as
