But sometimes, even though some memories are too hard to even bear, you want to hold on to the BAD and the GOOD memories. Because in the end, you realize there was a reason for all that misery that it resulted in happiness. “

Making sure that Daniela has left the room, I open the bag to see some clothes of mine and Ben, our passport sat underneath.
I will have to go back home to pick up some important documents before leaving. Ben’s school stuff is still in Gabriel’s home and I don’t think I will be able to retrieve it.
I will have to plan this carefully and soon.
I know that bitch who kissed Aiden from my memory she must have been his ex and she had poisoned Aiden. Aiden’s mother does not sound good either.

~ClaraWe made it to the railway station without being noticed.The railway station was very busy and was filled with people as usual. We came early and I sat with Ben waiting for our train.I was thankful for the crowd and was sure no one will be able to find me here. The only one I am worried about is Abigail, over the years we had gotten close and she knew exactly how I think.I prayed that we board the train soon and get away from here. My heart ached at the thought of getting away from Aiden. Again, it’s all worth it.Benjamin meant a lot to me, though I felt something for Aiden it is nothing when compared to the bond I had with Ben.Maybe I would have felt more for him before I lost my memory, but I don’t remember any of it.Ben will understand one day and hopefully forgive me for keeping him away from his father.When I realized that Aiden is none other than the father of Ben, I was confused

“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”— Lao Tzu***~AidenReliving the past was painful.Anna looked at me expectantly as I composed myself to tell her our past.This is getting tougher than I thought. I rubbed my neck nervously as I started telling her our story.***~Flashback~~AidenThe fresh morning air was cold against my skin as I jogged down the familiar path inside the woods. Cold mornings in January are one of my favorites, the snow crunched against my shoe-clad feet and I couldn’t wait to get home have a cup of hot coffee.My nose twitched as a ball of reddish brown fur whisked past me. I laughed as I raced the wolf towards home in my human form."You will never win this race Nico,”

I managed two weeks without facing my mate.I stayed away from the cafeteria or the locker and when she did have classes with me I clutched Tanya in a death grip and inhaled her scent to keep me distracted from my mate’s alluring scent.Though I wanted to mate Tanya and end this badly, I couldn’t bring myself to do it.Tanya was not all bad if you could see past her bitchiness and tantrums, she is bearable.Nicholas had also informed me that Tanya constantly picked on my mate and bullied her whenever possible.I couldn’t care much, she is weak and it’s her fate. I really did not even look at my mate’s face after the first day.We were in the last class and I was irritated that she was here again.Today they will be choosing project partners, who will remain your partner for the next six months.

“There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature. “— Jane Austen***Saxon and Nicholas were praising Anna openly which further boosted my ego.

Our pack will never accept her and she won’t be able to give me an heir our pups would be weak.If I did choose to mate with her, then it means giving up my position as an Alpha and leaving the pack life.And not to mention, what the council will say when they find about our mating.

"Though no one can go back and make a brand-new start anyone can start from now and Make a brand-new ending"***~AidenThe summer camp was in full swing, the pack ground was filled with unmated wolves and the patrol was working around the clock to ensure utmost security.Unmated Alphas from different packs has arrived and the unmated she-wolves flocked them everywhere they go.Neither Saxon nor Nicholas found their mates and were sulking with me inside the room.I despised the camp more than anything and mostly stayed inside the room for my own good.

"There are two primary choices in life To accept conditions as they exist or accept the responsibility for changing them"***~AidenI was fed up with the summer camp and decided to leave early to college. At least that way I will be around Anna.The Alphas who came for the summer camp also left early as none of them found their mates and did not want to waste their time on other expectant she-wolves.They all wished me good luck and informed me that they will support our mating. We packed and left Portland shortly. My mom did not speak to me or face me after our last confrontation and I did not try to speak to her either.She must get herself together and it won't do her any good if she keeps on this attitude.

~AidenAnna was listening carefully to our story and when I told her about the incident in that forest, she looked distant and thoughtful. It made me worry for a bit, she lost her memory and I was not sure how she was taking it all in at once."Are you okay?" I asked her, she nodded once "Yes, continue please."I sighed and I continued to tell her the rest of our story, the worst is yet to come and I didn't know how she would react.***Flashback...We left the forest together and took them to their small apartment. It was almost midnight and to our luck, no one was out now.Us being werewolves, we always kept a pair of clothes and a first aid kit in the car which came in handy.We had stopped the bleeding in Anna's leg and Barbara is shaken. I carried Anna, while Nicholas brought Barbara. Saxon went to get some antibiotics, pain medication and food.Their apartment is very small, with only two be

When positive things are made, that returns well.” -Yannick Noah *** ~Anna Four years later… Pure white snow blanketed the ground and surrounded trees. I sipped the hot chocolate welcoming the warmth as I sat on the cold porch on a Sunday evening. Life has been smooth and I was happy after a long time. It’s Christmas, Saxon and Gabriel are traveling with their families to Portland this time. Ever since I married Aiden we made it a ritual to spend Christmas together with our friends. The first year it was at Gabriel’s, last year at Saxon’s and now it’s our turn. Benjamin has been excited and we later found out that Diana is, in fact, his mate, which explained his shyness and protective behavior around her. Daniela delivered a beautiful

Revenge is a kind of wild justice, which the more man's nature runs to, the more ought to law to weed it out.-FRANCIS BACON,Essays***~AidenI smelled Anna and Ben the moment my mother came in, I did not like that one bit and I couldn’t do anything about it now.Concentrating on the traitorous bitch in front of me, I tensed when Anna barged in with a raging Ben.Anna’s gaze met Grace’s and they both stared at each other. Grace in shock and Anna as if she remembered something.We were distracted for a moment when Grace pushed my mom across and raced towards Anna. I was standing in a corner and there is no way I could reach Anna before Grace did.Ben tried to fight back but he was not strong enough to fight Grace. Fortunately, she only backhanded him with her full concentration on Anna.I rushed forward worrying about Anna’s safety when Anna came out of her stupor

~LiamThe call from Aiden was bad news. I doubted a scheming lady like Grace would have gone for them directly.Again, if she has gone mad as he stated she would be ready for anything.I heard footsteps climbing the stairs and composed myself to face the devil herself.“Hello Grace,” I whispered wickedly as she entered the doorless room with two wolves in tow.“Where is the girl, boy?” She sneered with a rage that I haven’t seen before. If I thought she looked like a devil before, she was devilish.“Not here,” I smirked, understanding the danger. If it comes to that, I won’t be helpless. I had fought Alpha’s before and was perfectly ready for this bitch here.“I know that before I came in. Where is she now?” Her voice boomed echoing through the room.I did not flinch as I met her glare.“Don’t waste my time boy. I had given you enough time and

~AidenWe did not sleep that night, instead discussed the situation and sat in the living room watching TV.It was around three am when I received a call from an unknown number.The man who spoke said that he knew who tried to kill Anna and who is hunting down Barbara, he requested us to meet us on the outskirts of the town shortly.I woke up Mom and after discussing the call I, Mom and Gabriel decided to meet this man who spoke to us while Saxon and Nicholas stayed home.Gabriel’s warriors followed us in a safe distance as we proceeded to meet this anonymous guy.When we reached the forest tree line, we noticed a man stood there waiting for us. He was six feet tall and wore a long coat. His thick blonder hair was combed neatly and his green eyes narrowed as he looked at us.“You came,” he drawled as we walk near. “Whoa, three Alphas in one place to meet me, I am not that much popular,” he whistled lowly.

Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while you’re in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get. ***~AnnaI couldn’t sleep a splitting headache I had made it worse. I stopped taking medicines long time ago and now I felt like I need one to sleep.The girls did not sleep either, they just lay there and was in their own la-la land thinking about God knows what.I heard a car coming and did not bother to know who it was. If anything, I wanted to escape all this insanity and go somewhere peaceful with Ben. A small cabin facing the beach would be lovely. I loved the ocean and beaches, though I did not get that many chances to be in one in a long time.The door creaked open informing someone has entered the room; I wished it is not Aiden and did not bother to turn around.The bed dipped behind me as the person sat and the girls frowned looking at me and sat up. I still did not bother to turn around. I

~AidenShe rejected us; my heart felt like it was split into two. An unbearable pain shot through my heart making me and my wolf whimper.My mom stood stunned behind me as she took it all in. She did not say anything as I knelt on the floor sobbing. I felt vulnerable and it is not in the history of Alphas to show such weakness in front of other Alphas, but I did not care.All that ever mattered to me was my mate and a son whom I did not even know existed until a few weeks ago,I deserved it, I half expected her to forgive me. My wolf howled in sadness, I sobbed and looked at the closed door expecting her to come out. Will she ever give me a chance to prove myself?I should have confronted her when I first met her, I put it off thinking I was only helping her by not bringing up her past, in my defense she cheated. All the evidence stated that she cheated on me.There is no point in crying now, I should have trusted her. I did not even give he

~Anna“Thick blonde hair, mocking green eyes, tall frame with broad shoulders and he looks like an executive,” I describe his features and Barbara nods confirming it.Shit… I was in danger long before Aiden reappeared in my life. Why didn’t Liam kill me right away? I frowned at the thought.“Why didn’t he kill me right away?” I voiced out my thought.“I am not sure Anna, maybe it is your turn to explain what you remember about that day and how you arrived here,” Barbara says tiredly.“I have no idea Barbara; I was shot and bleeding in the middle of a dark forest when I woke up.” I narrated what happened when I woke up and how I ended up here. My body shuddered when I thought about that sinister howl of the wolf.The entire room was silent when I finished, tears were rolling down my cheeks without any control. All I have known and experienced is pain from the moment I

Two more weeks passed and everything seemed so normal. We did not find any clue in terms of the culprit and the said wolf was missing.The New York partner has invited us to their annual conference and has offered some new deals which would further enhance our business. This time, I decided to take Anna with me.Nicholas is also coming with me and I have assigned Barbara to handle everything in the absence of Anna. I have also asked my mom to help Barbara.Anna was suddenly sick on the day of our travel; she vomited and couldn’t eat anything.She said it could be food poisoning and we were really getting late.Barbara promised to take her to the doctor and take care of her till I come back.“Anna, I cannot leave you here unattended for so long. I will send you the tickets once you are fit to travel. Barbara doesn’t leave her at any cost, stay close.” I said leaving her on the bed, hurrying to the airport.

“Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that ithurts you, it probably hurts the person too.”***~AidenMy eyes have turned as my wolf took control of my body long back.Ripping the sheets from the bed, I tore it into pieces; the anger was getting the best out of me. The wolf will pay for touching my mate, but at first, I need to show her who is the real man for her.I narrowed my eyes as the bathroom door opened and Anna came out clad only in her towel. The scent of the other wolf so rich in the air and the need to get rid of it was so high.“Aiden,” a surprised whisper caught my attention and I watched as she ran towards me and engulf me in a tight hug.My wolf growled loudly making her jump. “So it’s true.”“Aiden,” she looked at me confused. My eyes were dark and my fangs grew painfully at the thought of her being with someone.“W
