Chapter 1

[Valerie]As strange as it may sound, I had often imagined myself knocking on Death's door in this manner. It was something I dreaded, something that kept me awake at night, and even then, I had no hope of being surrounded by loved ones, of having a familiar tongue lick my face or a warm hand holding mine as I breathed my last.The attack on us came as a surprise. We had carefully planned our route and taken extra care to arrange our own attack so that we had the upper hand. The unsuspecting group we were intended to attack was allegedly out searching for food. When we hunted, we were vulnerable. Our senses were absorbed in the aroma of our prey's blood; sweet and warm, our tongues were overwhelmed with a desire for dripping, fresh meat. And it was then that the odor of our own species became less intense.Our strategy was so sound that we were taken aback by the odd animals who emerged out of nowhere. When I first saw them, I was taken aback by their disheveled fur, which appeared gr

Chapter 2

[Alexander] My entire being was seized by rage. We were outnumbered due to a cunning attack, and I had already lost two of my best guys. I wasn't about to lose any more ground to these repulsive beasts. Selene, our Savior, would not have made a being so foul and hideous that I felt my stomach churning the instant I laid eyes on them, even as a flesh-eating and blood-thirsty Alpha.I signaled Adam, our pack's Beta, to double up on an attack on one of the larger werewolves. I wasn't sure; their tongues were purple and their eyes were flaming, and they stood on their rear legs like humans, only they slouched their gigantic backs and their arms appeared to be double-jointed. Adam and I ran for the beast and severed its throat, roaring in unison as it collapsed to the ground, its head tumbling off the cliff.The other animals had noticed, so we broke off and tore more necks, figuring we had taken down the one that led them. They slumped to the ground one by one, but others appeared from t

Chapter 3

[Valerie] A massive intake of air rushed through my lungs, like a breath of fresh air, and I wheezed as my eyes opened. The great light all around me was white, and I assumed it was Mother Selene, who had come to see me and take me back to her dwelling. Those tears I had tried so hard not to cry were gone. Neither was the pounding ache in my ribs, which stopped my heart and took my final breath.I looked down at my clothes, amazed that there was anything covering me at all. On my legs, I wore a khaki cotton harem and a basic black t-shirt that clung to every curve of my torso. These were not my property. Perhaps Mother Selene preferred to meet her creation dressed strangely, rather than naked, as I had died.I was lying on a bed. A bed wrecked by an unending supply of blood from the puncture in my side. When I looked down and gingerly peeled the t-shirt up, my brows knitted with perplexity. Perhaps your wounds and imperfections vanish in death. It's not unexpected, given that Mother

Chapter 4

[Alexander]I didn’t mean to walk in on her like this. Even after last night when I had seen her at her very worst, the thoughts I had back then were modest in comparison to what I was thinking now. The parts of her body that weren’t covered by the towel glistened with pearls of water. The paleness of her skin from last night had turned to a soft golden tan - which meant she was very much alive. I took a step forward and trained my ears to her beating heart. Steady, but the closer I moved towards her, the more rapid her heart beat. It gave me somewhat of a kick to watch the way she froze on the spot, her mouth standing slightly agape as if my presence shocked her and my good looks seized her tongue.I then realized why she was here in the first place, and the fact that she was anywhere but in bed, resting off the effects of her injuries, made me mad. Amelia was nowhere to be seen either, and she’d get an earful for leaving this woman alone.“Why aren’t you sleeping?”I must have hit an

Chapter 5

[Valerie]I tried very hard to deny the obvious, but too much was happening all at once. My second chance at life was becoming increasingly challenging, and I wondered if it was really a second chance or a test of will.Alexander - the one who saved my life - was my mate. I could see it now; the dream in which the faceless werewolf kept me afloat and brought me joy now had a face. A beautiful one. I no longer had to fall asleep to see that dream, I would be able to simply close my eyes and see him, just as the memory of his features sketched into eternity in my mind. But the dream was unattainable - a fact I learned tonight.Alexander was bold, as expected - I knew that from the moment he scolded me for not staying in bed. He was also hesitant. I felt his hand tremble when he touched me. Had he been less tentative, I might have allowed him to have his way with me. I might have sprung upon him myself, succumbing to the aching desire that called for a change of underwear before I left th

Chapter 6

[Alexander]I was too stunned to follow her, my feet feeling like lead held them shackled to the carpet. Valerie had been so close - so close to scenting me that I wasn’t sure why she chose not to do it. She knew I was her mate - she had acknowledged that much - but she still decided to leave in a hurry, as if the thought of me being her mate disgusted her.I was far from disgusting. I was Alpha. I was also the CEO of my father’s mining company - a title I had worked very hard to attain. Amelia was the brains in the family, and growing up I always thought that she would be the one to take that place. So I worked harder and strived to get that position, even though her healing abilities made her look towards a career in medicine. She had no desire to work in the company, but still, I had to prove that I was fit to be CEO.Becoming Alpha wasn’t something I needed to prove. My lineage belonged to a long line of Alpha males, and I only had to grow up and become of age to become Alpha of th

Chapter 7

[Valerie]Luck had been on my side, for the most part. After making the seemingly never-ending walk back to Pleasant Hill, I forced back the anxiety that was threatening to eat me up alive, and went home.“Mom.” I breathed in relief when Edith opened the door, only to find surprise on her face.“Honey! What are you doing here? You should be at college.”I took the feeble hug she gave me and relished in her warmth for that moment, and walked into the house on feet that were burning and legs that felt numb after my journey on foot. I held the kitbag tighter around my shoulder so Edith wouldn’t be completely shocked by the blood-stained blanket. I was already thankful enough that she didn’t seem to know about anything that had happened. I didn’t need her to worry.“I’ll go back to college tomorrow. I just need to rest.”“Of course baby!” my adopted mom fussed over me, touching my arms, my face, as if inspecting me. “Did you get hurt? Did that Garret hurt you again?”“No mom!” I shrugged a

Chapter 8

[Alexander]I remembered the donut vendor I had once witnessed her bickering with. I greeted the man and ordered a tray as an excuse to make small talk and perhaps find out if he knew the girl.“I’ve always wanted to try these.” I smacked my lips together in pretense as I looked down at the mini donuts glazed in chocolate - I hated chocolate, “The last time I was here, I planned on coming over, but you were fighting with someone.”“Oh,” the vendor rolled his eyes as he remembered what I was talking about, “It was barely a fight. That silly girl was just upset because of the chocolate coating. Said I should have asked first.”I grinned with humor. So Valerie and I had something else in common. She was right too; he should have asked first.“You like it?”I took a bite of one donut, inwardly cringing as the taste of cocoa touched my tongue, and at the same time, I caught a whiff of a familiar scent. “Hmm! You haven’t seen her around, have you?”“Oh! I have actually. She was just there by

Chapter 9

[Valerie]I had to admit that I was scared, like a bear caught in a trap. I knew the Alpha would not give up, so I gave in, pulling my weight to a nearby tree and transforming into my human. The transformation was again painless, and I knew that it was my mate that made that possible. But it barely explained why, for years, the pain gripped me each time I transformed back and forth.Alexander changed too - and I realized my mistake early. We were out in the woods, in the middle of nowhere, in what he called the Land of The Witches. I had never heard of the witches except around campfires when the elders told us that the witches were not to be trusted, and that back in the day, they used magic to seduce the wolves and snapped their necks any chance they got. But none of us had actually seen one. To me, witches were just a myth.Alexander, however, went as far as accusing me of using witchcraft to ensnare him. I didn’t think that I would ever need to. Looking at him in all his glory, mad

Chapter 10

[Alexander]I had never made love to a woman out in the open. But this wasn’t love-making. This was anger at the very brim, unable to hold in any longer. It was as if I was a man possessed - possessed with dire need and the wolf in me unable to show restraint any more. She seemed to enjoy it though - what part of my beastly act had her walls begging for me, I wasn’t quite sure. It could have been the roughness, or it could have been the fact that her mate claimed her, but either way, I felt like crap.The nauseous feeling wasn’t from being with her. It was the act itself, as soon as I released the pent up desire, that made me feel like a dog. In my head, I tried to blame her, tried to blame our circumstances and even our surroundings, but fell short. It was I who was at fault. Or the wolf.I didn’t want to look at her when I finally let go. Not because she wasn’t the most beautiful thing in the world; her hair damp from sweating, smeared with a mixture of soil and pieces of broken bark
