Chapter 15

Ana

"Oh, Ana, is that you?" Her voice drips with false sweetness. "I thought you'd be long gone by now. Didn't you leave?"

I grit my teeth, knowing what she's really saying: she wants me out of the picture. But I'm not leaving just yet - I have unfinished business with all of them. Brad and Gills are already taken care of; it won't be long before I come for the rest of the main characters too.

As Alex stands there silently, letting her mock me, I turn to face her. She looks fake as ever, with her obviously salon-made tan and too-light blonde hair. And once again, I can tell she's not pregnant - even though I haven't had my first shift yet, being a werewolf means I have an exceptional sense of smell.

Max is there too, smirking evilly and sniffing the air like he knows something I don't. It's frustrating that we can't mind the link until after our first shift - but my connection to Max feels strong. Maybe Star has something to do with it.

    Chapter 16 I felt muscular arms gripping me. I was screaming at the top of my lungs, but I couldn't muster up the energy to break free. Something was wrong; it could be felt in every molecule of my body. Pain and sorrow ran through me as I struggled to focus. I could smell all the fragrances in the air and hear a Northern mockingbird mimicking a sound. It took me a moment to realize what it was—the call of a blue jay. A warning that something else was coming closer. “Come on, Ana! Settle down: it's just me—Max. This isn’t the time or place to fight some rogue shifter. You’re losing control and I need to get you somewhere safe. Remember, we can't shift around humans.” Humans? Alex had been right all along. If I were present, could I tell if he was a werewolf or knew about them? After the touch, I felt our bond strengthening, but I wasn't sure if he felt the same intensity as me. What would he think of me defying his father like that? Even though I don't want to care what he thinks, I

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 17

    Chapter 17 Ana Max took me to a secluded spot so that I could complete my first shift. Even though the pain was extreme, Max guided me through it and made me feel safe while I embraced my new body. Once I became a massive black wolf, Stars voice emerged completely as well. After the transformation, we went back to Miami, intending to tell my father about the marvelous event. Although I felt content, cherished by Max, I couldn't help but feel like something or someone was missing. For now, I will have to trust in this connection and give it time until we can build our own memories together and the ones with Alex fade away. My dad was ecstatic when he found out the news. His dream had come true - we were finally together. We held a grand celebration at my dad's mansion, and I couldn't be more content. But beneath my joy was a nagging feeling that refused to go away. To help me move on, I blocked Alex, Gill, Brad, and Shauna on all social media platforms, even deleting those accounts

    Chapter 18 Ana I'm speechless. What are the chances of bumping into Alex here? I try to remain emotionless but can't help the chill that runs through me. Should I congratulate him for... something? No way! It would be over my dead body. Maybe if I just nod and pass by quickly, that'll do. Courtney takes the first step forward and breaks the silence with a mocking tone. "Alex, what an unloving surprise." Yeah, Courtney has my back. I have to fight back a laugh - so typical of her to be so forthright. Alex looks as shocked as I feel, and his eyes are glued to me. "Ana, is it really you? I must be dreaming," he says quietly and sadly. His words hit me hard in the chest and I have no answer to give him. We're done time to accept it. “What a surprise Alex! I figure you were busy with college and football. Or does the married life, gives you different priorities?” I can’t hide my disgust. His face changes completely from sadness to stoic within seconds and I realize why when I hear Sha

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 19

    Chapter 19 Ana If we want to survive? It's obvious that Mr. Dallas knows nothing about our werewolf identities. This truth is hidden deep in the human world, and it’s best kept that way. I'm an alpha werewolf, so I motion Dylan to follow him and ask what these secrets are about. As soon as Dylan stands, two men in suits get up from their seats and follow him into the bathroom. They look intimidating as humans, but they have nothing on us. I fight back a smirk and cough to keep my composure. We don't fear you or anyone else, not even other werewolves. Shauna's glares in my direction are because of Alex's intensive staring. He made his decision, didn't he? As usual, Shauna is wearing high stilettos and a white dress, styling her fake blonde hair in a classic bun. We were at a small diner outside of Montana, so she stood out like a sore thumb. After two minutes of waiting, Dylan reappeared from wherever he had gone and took a seat at the table. His eyes were golden, a telltale sign hi

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 20

    Chapter 20 Ana We arrived at the apartment that we'd be renting. It was tiny, only two bedrooms, so Courtney and I both knew we had to share one. When Max showed up, he would take the other bed. I couldn't help but smirk at the thought of Courtney and Dylan in the same room - it sounded good to me! We unpacked our things and rotated taking showers and getting ready. Courtney and I chose sundresses while Dylan wore ripped blue jeans and a black t-shirt - which made him look handsome. He was quite the charmer with all the female attention he received, yet he seemed to reject all of them; it was almost like he wanted Courtney to take him seriously. If they became a couple, I would be overjoyed, as I held them both dearly. I left my hair down but put on some make-up, nothing too ostentatious; we were going to the local club to hustle humans for money. I didn't want to stand out and draw more attention than necessary. We also needed to investigate the scam business that had been going on

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 21

    Chapter 21 Ana Just when I thought my life couldn't be any more chaotic, I'm told to watch Alex, the ex-boyfriend I still feel such powerful emotions for, and his wife Shauna. Is this really just a wild coincidence? It's as if our lives cross paths, but not romantically. Instead of being together like we used to be, we are now destined to keep walking alongside each other. This makes me so angry! I want nothing more than to make them both disappear from my life so that I can finally move on. It feels even worse when Max isn't around; if he was here, then at least I could distract myself with his love and affection. The difficult thing when you have a human mate who doesn’t know, is that it's hard to forget them. I had to force myself to agree to marry Max, which only further bonded us somehow. It’s tough—almost unbearable—to focus on the good in life when I’m constantly reminded of this. I finally give Mr. Jackson my agreement, “Yes, let’s watch them tonight and see what informatio

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 22

    Chapter 22 Ana After a wait of 45 minutes, Dylan arrives with our things. Mr. Jackson had been quite generous while we waited and passed the time chatting about the club and general knowledge that was useful to us. I wanted to get to know him better, but I kept some details back; I don't find it easy to trust people quickly. We get dressed and Courtney helps me polish my look by fixing my hair and make-up up so that I looked more sophisticated. For the final touch of elegance, Dylan gives me a necklace that used to belong to my mother. "Is this yours?" I asked Courtney. She smiled but shook her head. "No, Ana. It belonged to your mum. Your dad gave it to me." At first, I couldn't speak, many emotions running through me at once: bittersweet love for my mum and happiness and sadness combined. "It's beautiful," I said eventually, with a smile. "Thank you." Dylan puts the neckless on me and I barely recognize myself in the mirror. I look like my mother, who left me too soon. Courtn

    Chapter 23 Alex The last month has been a living hell. I'm barely alive, my will to live almost gone. I'm feeling like I've lost control of my life and am trapped. My father's demands have cost me Ana for good - she doesn't know that this is all to protect her from danger. Shauna has clarified that she will hurt Ana if necessary and then announced that she was pregnant with my child - but I'm certain she is bluffing. To keep Ana safe, I must remain in the situation, even if it means sacrificing myself to a life I don't want. Lately, I've felt a sense of emptiness within myself. It's difficult to describe, almost as if something is missing. My intuition tells me it's the loss of Ana that's causing this feeling, but it seems deeper than just that. It feels as though a part of me has been ripped away, and all that remains are the scars from it. Despite my reservations, my dad and Shauna convinced me to return to Montana for work, so I did. Though I can't shake off this feeling of being

    Chapter 40 Ana The wolf that stood before me was a sight to behold. Max, my chosen mate, was beautiful in his own right, but this animal was breathtaking. His fur was silver grey, and his eyes were crystal blue. He towered over me, his aura nearly bringing me to my knees. It was apparent he was an alpha, the leader of a pack. Alex's family history had always been shrouded in mystery. When I met his father for the first time, I could tell he was a high-ranking wolf despite being a rogue. Perhaps he once belonged to a pack before leaving and setting out on his own. Then again, maybe Alex's mother had something to do with it all. When Alex returned to Montana and reunited with me. Something shifted within him. The final straw broke Blade free from whatever held him back was when I flirted with Mr. Giovanni––it set Blade free to be with me instead. Blade approached me carefully, almost like he didn't want to startle me. It made me smile; after all, I was an Alpha just like him, althoug

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 39

    Chapter 39 Alex Ana's kindness and selflessness astounded me; she was offering something so amazing. No matter what happened, I knew there was no way I'd leave her. Afterwards, I called my dad, and it was an unhappy conversation. He was yelling, demanding and threatening me to return right away - or else. Or else what? Would he disown me? There were no limits for him; whatever he wanted, he did. It boggled my mind that my mother ever found him attractive. He was wild, delusional, and fanatical in his beliefs: that he was invincible. I shared everything with Ana. No more secrets for us. We committed to spending the rest of our lives together, and though I wasn't thrilled about sharing her with Max, that was an issue for another day. We spent the rest of my first shift preparing, and Blade said we were fortunate to have each other accompanying us. When she told me the timing of her shift, something within me ached. She shifted early, not only because my father threatened to harm her,

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 38

    Chapter 38 AnaAlex's words were clipped and concise. As soon as Shauna answered the phone, he informed her that their engagement was off - a fact which didn't sit well with her. She shouted curses and threats at him, me and everyone he cared about. It was difficult to listen to, though she had it coming. She ranted about a supposed baby she was expecting; pure fiction. I knew for certain she wasn't pregnant, having smelled her scent again at the club with Courtney. Alex promised me he had never slept with Shauna. He recalled only one instance two years prior but said maybe he confused her for me on the night of the party when they hooked up. According to him, someone may have drugged him that evening. I believe him. People have been trying to keep us apart for some dumb reasons. Alex seemed relieved yet worried when he hung up the phone, but I still felt insecure about the way he hurt me. I was a mess and put on a face of being okay, though I hadn't been since that night when every

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 37

    Chapter 37 AlexI sensed her presence and smelled her perfume even before she tapped on the door. Somehow, I was aware of her entrance as soon as she stepped into the building. My dormant werewolf characteristics came to life—my suppressed feelings and instincts rose, giving me a sense of strength, but also making me uncertain about many things. One thing I was certain of, it was Ana. My love; my soulmate. From the moment I met Ana, I felt an overwhelming connection to her that surpassed anything I had ever encountered before. It all made sense now, knowing what I know. She belonged to me. When I heard her footfalls in the hallway, I swiftly checked myself in the mirror and made sure my appearance didn't disappoint. I wanted her to feel for me as intensely as I did for her. But if there was something I could sense from Ana, it was that she was unsure. I was sure that I wanted to be with Ana, either alone or sharing her with Max. I made the most of our time together and learn as mu

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 36

    Chapter 36 Ana Max was instantly furious when I explained my plan and promise to Alex. He must have thought I was going to leave him, but after I reassured him, he became more concerned about my health. Everyone knew the danger of taking in another mate—except for Alex. After talking to both men, I went back home to take a few moments for myself. The more I thought about it, the clearer it became that there was no other way: I wanted them both, and the full moon - just a couple of days away - would be the deadline. Time was quickly slipping away. As I made my way to the apartment, I had plenty of other things on my mind; Shauna and, as well as Mr. Giovanni and his mob. Of course, Alex's father would be a problem for later. By now I was about to start alpha training, something I was quite eager to do. To be a good pack leader, I had to know how to lead, fight and use tactical strength. I believed it was the mob which caused the infiltration in our pack and our business. I daydreamed

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 35

    Chapter 35 Ana I’m in a trance-like state when Alex is near me. I lose all sorts of judgment and rationality. He has complete control over me. What have I done? Have I really asked him to be my second mate? It happens occasionally, but usually it’s only between siblings. I haven’t even talked to Max about this. But I’m serious about this. I love Max with all my being. This won't change that. Not being with my fated mate will kill me if I do nothing soon.Yet what I just did was totally irrational. I should have spoken with Max first, but the look of relief on Alex's face, combined with the peace in my heart when I said those words, comforts me somehow. It seems there are no other solutions to resolving this dilemma; it’s that or utter mayhem. I choose my words carefully as I explain to Alex the steps I'll have to take in order to make this work. I need to seek Max's approval first, and that will be difficult given his animosity towards Alex. Even with all the new information that h

    Chapter 34 Alex I had begged Ana to talk to me, and she eventually agreed. I was worried when I saw her sitting in another guy’s lap. It filled my veins with rage. But a single glance into her tender eyes calmed me down instantly. When we held hands, Blade’s anger dissipated, and I felt like I was back in control. My mind raced in all directions, questioning my history and my family, trying to figure out who could have done this to me. Was it really just my father? I wasn’t sure. It all felt too much for me to process. But a glance at Ana made everything seem easier. I suddenly felt connected to my body and soul, as though she were the missing piece that bound me together–providing happiness, security, and comfort from all my worries. She is the only one who kept me from losing control. I was drawn to her as I intertwined my fingers with hers and looked into her eyes. That she lets me hold her gives me a spark of hope. But as soon as my gaze catches sight of the mark on her neck,

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 33

    Chapter 33 Ana Oh, no. This is not how I wanted Alex to find out the truth. Dylan's warlock friend had used some kind of spell to subdue Alex's wolf, Blade, so he wouldn't go feral. It wasn't ideal, but it was the only way to keep him from going wild. This is where we stand now: Alex clinging onto his composure with an iron grip. His jaw is clenched tight, his eyes narrowed in distress, and lips pressed together in a thin line. He wants to fight Max, but Blade has stepped away from him after hearing my Alpha command. We are left in this strange place between honesty and deceit. All I know is they have bound Blade inside of Alex and the recent event with Shauna's father has set him free. But he's still angry and hurt, and so is Alex. He looks so pitiable and remorseful that I can't help but feel guilty, though it's not like I'm the one who betrayed him or anything like that. After getting involved with Shauna, he deceived me, lied to me, and pushed me away. And yet I understand why h

  • Forever Mine   Chapter 32

    Chapter 32 Alex I'm in a state of numbness, yet something deep inside of me is compelling me to find Ana. Everyone around me appears to be avoiding my questions and giving me half-hearted answers. I haven't seen her since this morning, and I need her desperately. Mr. Jackson, the club owner, has clarified that I can’t leave the room because of the risk posed by my wolf form. Even though I can't actively feel Blade at this moment, Dylan Maverick explained why — there must be some kind of spell keeping him quiet. But now, his emotional outcries demand that we find Ana immediately. Could she be in trouble? I get dressed in black jeans, combat boots, and a simple tee. They gave me these clothes. I normally dress a bit more casual, sporty kind of way, but don’t really mind what they have given to me. I throw open the door, unwilling to tiptoe out of my room like some awkward teenager. I'm all grown up, searching for the girl of my dreams. Instinctively, I run in Ana’s direction. The do
