When I wake up, it's still dark but I'm alive.

I'm alive.

That's what's most important. They didn't find me. There's still a chance for me. I just have to find my way out of this cave.

I search for another opening, but there's nothing. I can't hear anything either. I'm alone here. But I'm alive. I can escape this. I can survive.

I walk around the cave until I find another passageway. And though it’s dark and a little terrifying, I don’t give up. I try to think clearly as I go through passageway after passageway until I find an opening.

The sun is coming up.

It's the first light I've seen in over a day. And its warmth is beautiful as the rays kiss my skin. The sun is stunning. For so long, I thought I'd never see it again.

I take a deep breath. I'm alive. So, I'll try to survive.

I walk through the forest, looking for food. I'm starving, so I find a small animal and kill it. I eat it raw. I don't want to waste time. I eat it quickly and then get up and move on.

    At first, I'm scared of him. I haven’t had great luck with guys so far. But after a while, I relax. He has no intention of hurting me. And even considering everything else I’ve gone through, I already trust him to a strange degree.     There's relief as we start walking away from those who want to hurt me. But I'm still afraid. What if the distance I put between us won't be enough?After walking in silence for a little while, I turn to him."Don't you want to know my name?" I ask. He shrugs."Only if you want to tell me," he says. "I don't care what your name is to be fair. I'd try to protect anyone like this. It’s just the kind of person I am."It hurts a little. I want to feel like I'm special to him. I don't know why. It’s also nice to know though. It’s sweet that he’s the kind of person who cares about other people."My name is Katia," I say. "Katia." He works over my name, despite not wanting to hear it. He seems to like the way it sounds. "I'm Kaleb."Kaleb. I like t

    “I’ll keep you safe,” I say.“I know you will,” she smiles. I suspect she knows everything, though I’m trying to hide it.The first moment I met Katia, I knew I was in trouble. She's beautiful, of course. Stunning. But there's something more about her.Her soul speaks to me. It looks into my soul. It touches me.I feel her.And she feels me.So, I try to keep my distance as we talk. Yet I can't help but be fascinated by her."A butterfly," she says, as it lands on her finger. Even after all she's been through, she looks at it with such delight. As if the world is innocent and beautiful. I want to see the world through her eyes."I've never seen a butterfly this color," she says, smiling at the silver stars against its dark blue wings. "So, it can't be a regular butterfly. Maybe it's a magical butterfly.""It's a fairy," I say, surprised that something so playful has come from my mouth. “Magic.”I smile at her, and she smiles back. “Here,” she says, holding her finger up

    I've enjoyed talking to Kaleb so much that I'm a little disappointed once we reach his pack.Time has simply gone by far too quickly and I want more time for just the two of us so I can get to know him better. I want to know everything about him.I know he's my mate. The way I feel about him is unlike anything I've ever felt for anyone else."I know you'll love my pack," Kaleb assures me. "And they'll love you too. You'll fit right in."I'm a little nervous, but I also feel a little silly for being nervous. I just want to fit into his world. I want a place to belong more than I’ve ever wanted anything else. "Are you ready to meet the rest of my pack?" he asks."Yes," I say. "I'm ready."He smiles at me, and I have to fight the urge to reach out and touch him. I want to run my fingers through his hair. I want to touch his face. I want to hold him in my arms.The whole pack comes out to greet Kaleb as we step onto their territory, but they all seem surprised to see me there wit

    I lay on the bed and try to decompress. I'm sure Kaleb is out there, talking to the others. I wonder what he's saying about me."Hello, Katia," a voice says as footsteps enter my room.Evie walks in with a smirk. "Hello," I say, not too friendly. I know I should try to be nice, but I hate her already. I hate her for having him. She looks down at me and I know she hates me too.I wish I could tell her not to worry. I'll never try to take Kaleb from her because I know he'd never choose me."You should know that Kaleb and I are mates," she says.He has already chosen."Then I hope you have a good time together," I say. It sounds stupid but I don’t know what else to say. All rational thoughts have left my mind."We have a great time together because we're meant for each other.""I'm glad you're happy,” I reply through clenched teeth. I don’t even want to think about them having a great time together. I don’t want to even consider what they do together. I just want her to leav

    I manage to avoid the pack for the rest of the day, but I know I can't avoid them forever. By the next day, I leave my room to get to know the people I'll be living with at least for now.Ina comes up to me right away."I was wondering if you were ever going to come out again," she says. "I was getting worried about you.""I'm sorry," I tell her. "Yesterday was just…a bit of a shock. It’s all a huge adjustment.""I know," she says. "It’s going to be a lot to get used to. But I'm glad you're out of your room now.""I just need some time to get used to this, to get used to everything.""I understand," she says. "I'm not going to rush you into things. I know this is a lot. But I think you'll really like it here. How about I show you around?”“I’d like that,” I say.If I can focus on my life here, maybe I can manage to be here while still having to cope with seeing Kaleb with someone else. The way this pack has built a life with nature appeals to me. Ina and I run, taking in the

    "I love you," he tells her."I love you too," she replies.It seems like their kiss goes on for hours as I watch them. It's clear to see he adores her.It breaks my heart to hear him say it to her. But it somehow gets worse from there.As I stand by the window, I hear Kaleb saying all these romantic things to Katia and it takes all of my self-control not to cry.He's my mate, not hers. He's supposed to love me. I love him.I've waited so long for him to be in love with me. And then I realize that it's not just the fact that I'm waiting for him that hurts. It's that he's in love with her. He's saying all of these romantic things to her.It's not fair. Kaleb is my mate, not hers. We're supposed to be together.Listening to them only makes me hurt more, but I can't stop myself. I wipe my eyes with the back of my hands.I can't believe that I'm crying about this. I can't believe that I care about this.I already knew that he wasn't going to choose me. I knew that from the moment I

    "I love you."I kiss Katia one more time before reluctantly leaving. I wish I could be with her all the time, but I have to be careful until I make it official.I'm already supposed to be Evie's mate. And I'm the Alpha, so it'll be even more scandalous when I break things off with her. But I must.I go to find Evie right after leaving Katia, I don’t want to want any longer than I have to. But I find Ina instead. She falls into my arms and I hug her as she sobs. "It's Jacob," she says. "They've found him and he's been murdered."I feel like someone has taken my heart and ripped it out of my chest. I can't believe that Jacob is dead. He was my younger brother. I’m supposed to protect him. It can’t be true. I wouldn’t allow something like that to happen to him."What happened?" I ask. “There’s no way. He wasn’t gone for that long.”"They think he was killed by a wolf," she says. "Maybe by a wolf from Katia's old pack. The pack that’s hunting her down.""That doesn't make any sen

    "Katia, we need to talk," Kaleb says. I freeze. Usually, I'd be happy about talking to Kaleb but there's something about the way he looks at me that scares me. It seems like he's about to say something awful. His eyes are narrowed and dark, his tone low and dangerous."What's going on?" I ask. "Is everything okay?""No," Kaleb says. "It's not okay. And I think you know exactly what I'm talking about. You know why things are far from okay.""I'm not sure what you're saying," I reply, as panic grows within me. I don't know what I’ve done to upset him. I thought everything was fine between us."I need you to leave," he says coldly. "What?" I ask, totally blindsided. "Why?"I can't believe this is happening. Everything is happening so fast. One moment Kaleb and I were declaring our love for each other, and the next moment, Evie was accusing me of killing Jacob, and now Kaleb’s telling me that I need to leave.Why can’t the world slow down so I can be happy for a little while?

    KALEB’S POV"Is she gone?" Ina asks, as I leave Katia's room.I nod. I'm heartbroken after having to banish Katia, but I didn't have a choice. I shouldn't even be sad about it. She killed Jacob."I don't know that Katia is behind this though," Ina says, horror in her eyes. “I think we have it all wrong.”"What do you mean? I ask."I don't think Katia killed Jacob," Ina says."What?" I ask. "Do you think she's telling the truth?”"She did deny it at first,” Ina reminds me. “So I think she’s lying about some things, but telling the truth about others. I think I’ve grown to know her enough. It’s like our souls know we’re meant to be sisters. So, I know what’s in her heart. I know she didn’t do this.”"What are you saying?" I ask."I think she told the truth when she said she didn’t have anything to do with it," Ina says. "I think it's Brandon. I bet he's the one who killed Jacob.""But maybe Katia told him to," I say, though I’m clinging onto a new hope. I never want to accept
