"My dear, that is you," she whispered in Ana's ear while pointing at the photo that was in Ana's hand. Ana felt a chill run down her spine as her mother's words sank in. Her hand started shaking and becoming clammy. I don't believe it. That can't be me. She started thinking about the happy memories that she had of her adoptive mother. I can't believe my whole life was a lie! The person I believed to be my mom is not! She thought to herself, her eyebrows creasing in disbelief. Her eyes flitted toward her mother's face. Ana's mother had a bright smile, treating this day as a happy memory, one she would never forget. *I am happy that she is finally home. It was a long-awaited journey, one that we never expected, especially after the fire.* Scrunching her eyebrows, Ana observed the picture. She wanted to see if what her mother was saying was true. Once she saw the baby in the picture, her jaw dropped in shock. As she continued to observe the photo, Ana's heart skipped a bea
Ana leaned closer as the last words left her mother's mouth. Her hands found the edge of the leather couch, and she grabbed onto it. She desperately tried to keep herself grounded, while listening to what her mother was saying. Ana began to pensively think about how and why now her mother was trying to be a part of her life. 'Why did my biological mother have to appear after so many years? Was it pre-ordained by the moon goddess? Or was there something else at play?' Ana wondered as she tried to understand what the meaning of her new life meant for her. "Ana, are you listening to me?" Her mother questioned before she continued with the story. Absentmindedly, Ana nodded, "Yeah, I am." She replied with a smile on her face. Right before her mother started talking again, Ana began thinking about her life, and how it would change. 'Will my mother's revelation guide me in how I view myself? And is it going to fill the void in my heart?' She wondered as her mother continued. "
After her mother opened the bedroom door, Ana's eyes widened at the incredible sight that was laid out before them.It was large with an open bay window, and a blush pink bed was to her right. Everything was perfectly beautiful. And that was something she desperately needed to have.The bedroom was laden with so many trinkets, and her eyes scanned every single one. "Wow! Look at this place! Everything here is exquisite," she declared as her eyes bore into something in the room. Ana started inching closer wanting to find out what it was that she was observing. Her hands were shaking uncontrollably, but with determination, she would not allow it to get in the way. While Ana was enjoying the view, her mind began running a thousand miles a minute. This life was new for her, especially with everything that she had gone through. Yet, finally, she could have the life that she dreamed of. But is this just a dream, or will she wake up to find that this is real?'This place is beautiful. I n
As night turned into day, birds started chirping, a sign that a new day had come. The sun began shining through the closed window blinds. The light danced around the room, enhancing each detail of Alexander's body.Every time he stretched, his abs protruded from underneath his pajama shirt. While this was happening, Ana was having a tense conversation with her father's assistant.As Alexander stood off the bed, the covers pooled around his feet, making a nice circle around them. Then he stretched once again and blinked a couple of times.As Alexander tried to remove any remnants of sleep that he had left, his mind started racing. Who is that talking with Ana? He wondered while just waking up.He squinted his eyes trying to see who was standing by the door. But he couldn't figure it out.After a few minutes, his eyes fully adjusted, and his anger became palpable. Alexander started balling his hands into fists.Whoever is talking with her makes my hair stand on the back of my neck, Alex
As they stood outside Ana's father's office, the air around them began to thicken with tension. It was a sense that something was brewing behind the walls. Something was going to happen, yet they didn't know what.Ana's mind raced many miles a minute, trying to understand it all. A mix of emotions swirled in her hurt, something that she had never known. Yet finding out about her birth family stirred it up.'I don't know if I should do this. For some reason, my heart feels heavy, and I don't know why,' Ana wondered as she shifted from one foot to the other. Her nerves were running rampant in her body, but she couldn't calm herself down.It took everything in her to slowly come back to the present and hear what Alexander said.'I hate seeing her like this. Why can't I figure out how to help her get through her rampant emotions?' Alexander pondered as he searched her eyes for any sign of regret.Before she could think about it anymore, Alexander interrupted her thoughts. His voice was bo
As Ana took the book in her hands they automatically started roaming over it. And her mind was racing fast. 'Why does this feel familiar, but at the same time it is not?' She pondered as her eyes started hazing over, then they closed. Her heart started beating rapidly out of her chest. "What's happening? Why are my eyes closing on their own?" Ana thought to herself while allowing sleep to take over her. When suddenly, a memory flashed in her mind. Something which was a distant memory. Once it took over her senses, she found herself standing in the dimly lit halls of a grand castle. Being a werewolf, her senses heightened more. The scent of old worn books filled her nostrils. 'Where am I?' She pondered while trying to understand where she ended up. Ana started looking around the place when whispers filled her ears. "Alexander, are you seeing this?" She asked, but when she looked to her side, her heart sank. He was not there with her. The longer she was away from h

The bedroom she always found comfort in when she would feel upset, was now her prison. At one point in time, she was allowed to leave the house. But since her parents told her she must marry the Alpha King, Isabella locked herself in her room. She did not want to leave. Isabella always wanted wait to find her mate. But due to her parents intervening, that was not going to be happening on her terms. Isabella sat on her bed with her legs crossed, and a sad expression on her face. Her mind raced with so many thoughts. Her younger sister Alisa entered her room quietly. Alisa did not want to disturb her sister, so she stood their with a somber expression. Seeing her sister so sad, made her heart hurt. My poor sister, what did our parents do to you? She whispered under her breath. Alisa could not deal with her sister's down turned eyes, so she walked closer to her. "Isabella, I know that you are feeling so many emotions. Just tell me why you are feeling this way. I care about you so

As they stepped into the portal, Isabella felt an enigmatic pull. It was an invisible force which urged her to continue on their journey of self-discovery. She desperately clung to Alexander for answers, since everything she was feeling was new for her. "Alexander, are you feeling the same way that I am?" she asked hopeful that she was not alone. Alexander gently grabbed her hand, trying to calm her beating heart. He desperately wanted to find a way to ease her anxiety. "Can you describe it to me? I want to know what you're feeling," Alexander pleaded. Every time her heart beat rapidly, his did too. The mate bond was calling them to choose each other once again. Despite the unimaginable ways he had hurt her, Isabella's heart clenched whenever they were near. Knowing he would always be there for her, she explained what she was feeling as they traveled through the portal. "It feels as though everything in my body is beginning to break, urging the magic to flow freely
Still stuck with Alexander in the Sanctum, Isabella started to become agitated. She did not know what to do next. Desperately, she tried to search for a way out, but without hope, she gave up. Upon seeing her strength of heart defeated, Alexander was ecstatic. He smiled wide, and the room started to fill up with dense fog that began to swirl.His power emulated off of him in dark waves that would not stop appearing. It started surrounding Isabella and choking her to the point where her breaths started to become ragged. The longer the tendrils of the fog were wrapped around her neck, her eyes began to look like they were going to pop right out of their socket.The air started growing colder and thicker, her heart started pounding fast as if it would run right out of her chest. As she felt her hands become clammy and sweaty, Isabella wiped them on her outfit. She tried to remove the sweat from her hands. Gaining the remaining strength that she had left, Isabella took the courage and
