VICTORIA

The scent of roses enveloped my senses, making me fidget on my bed. Mornings weren’t my strong suit, but the aroma brought a strange sense of comfort... except I hadn’t placed any flowers in my room or used any artificial scents. I don’t remember my room ever smelling like hints of human blood, either.

With a sudden jolt, I shot up from the bed, and my mind conveniently reminded me that I had almost died… and that I felt the mate bond with a vampire.

“Shit. This isn’t happening,” I cursed and immediately removed myself from the bed, unable to believe that I had slept so comfortably in a vampire’s bed.

My eyes darted around the room while my hands instinctively reached out my pockets for my phone. It looked like a regular room, except it looked like a hotel room for a high-end hotel.

“Son of a gun, did he take my phone? I don’t even have my car keys!”

He is not our mate. Lucas is.

My wolf was finally talking to me, but arguing like this wasn’t really the best time. I had to ge

    VICTORIA“Victoria Wilson, where have you been? I was calling you the whole night.” Lyle didn’t even let me sit and started nagging me.I got home, thinking that I could ponder on things in peace because no one was contacting me. I forgot that I have a very persistent best friend. When I entered the house, she was sitting on my couch, just like how my mother used to do when Ruis or I snuck out, thinking we were so good at concealing our presence.“Can I at least have some coffee? I had a rough day,” I requested, but I went straight to the kitchen without notice. I need something to distract me, or I might just lose my mind. It’s still a miracle how she doesn’t notice the vampire scent in me because I can smell myself, and I’m perfectly doused in Zephyr’s scent from sleeping on his bed.The smell is dangerously attractive, but I would never admit to it.Lyle glared at me when I came back. I handed her a cup of coffee as a peace offering. She accepted the mug but still stared at me as i

    VICTORIA“Wait, what? You’re mates?” Garett exclaimed. I’m impressed by his ability to be nosy even in a dire situation.I growled at him, “Don’t run that mouth, or I will sew it. I won’t do a great job, but I promise you, it’ll hurt.”He laughed awkwardly and dashed his way back to the pack house faster than I had ever seen him run. Well, that was effective.“That was a little harsh, don’t you think?” Lucas commented but was grinning. I could sense his amusement at what he was witnessing.I glared at him, “And would you rather let that kid out here freely and casually be the bait for those rogues? I’d rather be harsh one time.”He shrugged and faced the newcomers. Where is everyone when they are needed?!I fought the urge to roll my eyes when Lucas grinned at me after he had just knocked one of the rogues out. Another rogue was running towards him. I picked up a rock and didn’t hesitate to throw it in Lucas’ direction, anticipating that he could dodge but wishing that he would get hi

    VICTORIA I stood in the center of the pack’s training room, facing two of the trainees assigned to me. They are both eager to be part of our pack’s defenders. As the daughter of our alpha, I had to share my expertise in combat and also assess whether they passed or not. “Alright, let’s begin,” I said calmly, taking a stance and giving them the head start to attack. “Remember, this is about control, not just aggression. Our wolves are our primal instincts. It was hard to control when you’re in a fight but you have to remember to bring presence of mind in a fight. Focus on your technique and anticipate your opponent’s moves.” They both nodded and lunged toward me without hesitations, eager to show what they had learned. Spencer aimed a punch at my face, but I sidestepped and easily avoided the attack before I counterattacked with a swift strike to his side. He winced and made way for Annalise to attack. She executed a series of quick kicks packed with accuracy but lacked power. We

    VICTORIA “Tori, goodness, you’re so gorgeous.” I would have appreciated the compliment if I wasn’t uncomfortable with my dress. I pulled the dress to the side as I felt suffocated by how tight it was in the bust area. Is this a dress or a goddamn choker?! “Hey, you’ll tear it if you keep pulling it up. It’s already at the right spot. Tori, I said, stop pulling it.” Lyle held my hand to stop me. I groaned, “But this is so uncomfortable. It’s my birthday. I’m supposed to be happy and comfortable today, not choked to death by a freaking tight dress.” I continued pulling the dress, half hoping that it would tear so I would have to declare a wardrobe malfunction and change but the damn dress is more resilient than I thought. My best friend shook her head in dismay, “C’mon, just bear with it until you’re introduced. After that, you can change into comfortable clothes… I guess?” “Fine. Let’s get this over with.” I took a deep breath, wishing so bad that no one among the guys who arrive

I shook my head and lied without blinking, “It’s nothing.”“If it’s nothing, then why are your eyes like that?” My eyes widened. I picked up my phone and checked my eyes on my phone’s camera.

    VICTORIA Go back. We can’t let him be with another woman! I heard my wolf complain, but I didn’t stop and speed up instead. “We’re better off without him. Don’t you realize that?” I exclaimed. I’ve never argued with my wolf before, not like this, and I can’t believe that this would be the reason. My eyes suddenly welled with tears. I don’t have a reason to cry or be jealous, but I can’t stop myself from being angry because my wolf is furious. I should have stayed at home! I stopped and parked in front of a random closed store. Why do I have to feel this? He’s obviously a jerk, why do I have to feel upset when we barely knew each other?! Please, he is our mate. You have to believe me. I closed my eyes, forcing myself to calm down and shut my wolf. “Damn it.” I curled in pain after forcefully subduing my wolf. The pain was immeasurable. It was like I was being torn apart from the inside. We were taught how to subdue our wolves, but it wasn’t advisable to do frequently because
