Tristan

As I walked towards Elaine, she was the only person I could see. My mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, words I desperately wanted to convey to her. Elaine's eyes locked onto mine, filled with disgust. Just my presence seemed to sour her mood instantly. It was painfully clear she was uncomfortable with me closing the gap between us.

“At least give me a chance to talk, Elaine,” I whispered to myself.

When the CEO mentioned Elaine's name, I was stunned. I couldn't wrap my mind around how she managed to achieve such a significant milestone. It seemed unbelievable that my wife had done something worthy of such pride. Every employee was cheering for her.

Elaine was undeniably different from the person she used to be. She had truly changed for the better, looking more independent and capable than ever. Clearly, the company had come to rely on her skills. Memories of Elaine's true capabilities replayed in my mind. It was harsh to admit, but I had always thought of my own wife as dumb, n

    MeganI looked everywhere, hunting Tristan down for a confrontation. My heart pounded with anger, and my fists clenched at my sides. I couldn't bear the humiliation since we saw each other at the party. My eyes darted around, scanning every corner of the venue, but I couldn’t find even a shadow of Tristan."Arghh! Where the hell are you, Tristan?!" I muttered through gritted teeth, my voice a low growl.Passing by the lobby, I finally saw him sitting down. My heels clicked loudly on the floor, echoing my fury as I approached. Heads turned, and I relished the attention. Tristan didn’t notice me at first, but as soon as I stood behind him with my arms crossed tightly over my chest, he quickly turned around and saw me. His face twisted into a scoff, and he started to leave without saying a word.But I was faster. I grabbed his arm, my nails digging into his skin. "Where do you think you're going?" I burst out loud, my voice shaking with rage.He quickly shoved my arm away, and I felt his

    Megan "Hey, you! Give me another glass!"I leaned my head against my hands on the table, taking a deep breath while muttering curses about Elaine into the thin air. The bartender silently placed my order, giving me an uncomfortable look before going back to cleaning and wiping some glasses. I downed the drink like it was cold water."One glass of what the other lady ordered, please."I heard a voice from my left side and turned to see a she-wolf sitting close to me. I gave her a once-over from head to foot and rolled my eyes. The lady just chuckled and told the bartender, "Make that two. Hers is already empty."Hearing this, I spat out mean words. "Oh please, bitch. I have more money than you think. I can buy you that drink for eternity."The she-wolf removed her glasses and put them down on the table. Our orders came, but I didn’t even bother to look at them. Feeling the irritation bubbling up inside me, I continued."Find somewhere else to sit, cunt," I gave her another look from

    ElaineFour weeks had passed since we began our collaboration with Everett Innovations. During that time, Nancy, Marie, the Roma Aesthetics team, and I spent countless hours at the Marriott Building, fine-tuning every detail of our project. The collaboration had exceeded all our expectations, and the results were nothing short of spectacular.Today was our final day before the big presentation. The atmosphere inside Roma Aesthetics was electric with anticipation and excitement. Our entire team gathered to celebrate our achievements and the hard work that had brought us to this point. Laughter and animated conversations filled the room as we reminisced about the journey and speculated about tomorrow’s presentation.Marie, my closest colleague and friend, was beaming with pride. She had been instrumental in steering our project in the right direction, and her enthusiasm was infectious. No wonder she was awarded as an employee of the year for Roma thrice in a row. That surely was a testam

    ElaineThe day of the presentation finally arrived, and Roma Aesthetics was filled with excitement. The entire venue had a special energy. The grand ballroom was beautifully decorated. Soft, warm lights made the room glow with a golden color. The high ceilings had chandeliers that sparkled, and the walls were covered in rich, ivory fabric, creating a calm and elegant look.Every detail was carefully planned. We hired the best events team to make sure everything went smoothly. As our VIP guests arrived, they walked past flower arrangements of white roses and lilies. Servers moved through the room, offering glasses of champagne. The air was filled with the fresh scent of flowers and the delicious smell of appetizers.This day was very important for us as it was the launch of our marketing campaign for Bride Essentials, the top bridal couture brand on the continent. We were about to reveal Timeless Elegance, a new collection from them that also introduced the company’s rebranding. The col

    ElaineI held my breath, hoping the presentation would go smoothly. The room was quiet, except for the soft hum of people waiting. My hands were sweaty, and my heart raced. This moment was important for all of us. Everything depended on it going well. All the hard work and sleepless nights we had put in were now resting on these slides going off without a hitch.As the first slides began to play, I started to feel a bit calmer. The images were clear and beautiful, just like they had been during our practice. The colors were vibrant, and the designs looked flawless. I could hear a few guests quietly admiring the slides. For the first time that evening, I allowed myself to relax. Maybe everything would be okay after all.Then the voiceover began, resonating through the room with clarity and professionalism, enhancing the presentation. I noticed the guests leaning forward, fully engaged, their attention captured. The atmosphere in the room became more focused, and I felt a small smile for

    ElaineI felt my heart sink further as the room seemed to close in on me. Nancy’s face turned red with anger. The light from the big chandeliers made her look even more intense. “That bitch!” she shouted, her voice echoing in the large room. “She sabotaged the event, didn’t she?”“No, Nancy,” I begged, my voice shaking. “Marie would never do that!”Nancy’s eyes were like fire as she turned to face me. The fancy decorations and plush seats seemed to make her anger even more intense. “Then who did, Elaine? Only you and Marie had access to the file! If it wasn’t her and it wasn’t you, then who?”Tears blurred my vision, but I had no answers. I was as lost as everyone else, standing there as the dream we had all worked so hard for crumbled to dust.To make matters worse, Mr. Smith, his wife, and the rest of our partners approached. The Chairman of Bride Essentials, Lauren Yang, looked particularly furious. I could feel her sharp gaze cutting through me like a knife.“What is going on here

    Elaine The air felt heavy, and the distant voices from the event I had just left made me feel even more alone. My heart pounded in my chest, each beat loud in my ears. I tried to breathe deeply, but the tightness in my chest made it hard.When I looked up, I saw Megan and Tristan walking towards me. They were framed by the warm, fading light, making the moment feel unreal. Megan walked with confidence, almost like she was hunting me. Tristan’s steps were slower, his eyes fixed on me. The difference between them was clear. Megan had a small, sly smile on her face, while Tristan’s expression was hard to comprehend. A knot formed in my stomach as they got closer. Fear and anxiety washed over me, knowing that nothing good could come from this. My pulse raced, and my body tensed as if I were preparing for something bad to happen. I wanted to run, to escape this situation, but my feet felt like they were glued to the floor.They stopped in front of me, and I saw the glint in Megan’s eyes.

    ElaineI noticed the look of dislike on Tristan’s face the moment he saw Trevor. His lips twisted into a frown, and his eyes narrowed as if he was upset. The air felt heavy with tension, and my heart started to beat faster with worry. But before I could think too much about it, Trevor was suddenly beside me.Trevor’s presence was comforting. His hands were gentle as they touched my shoulders, helping me stand up straight. His grip was firm but kind, steadying me in a way that made me feel safe. The warmth from his hands eased the tight feeling in my chest, and I began to feel a little better.“Elaine, are you alright?” His voice was soft and full of concern. “I heard what happened in the news and rushed over. I needed to see you, to make sure you were okay.”I nodded, unable to find the right words. I was grateful for Trevor’s presence, the way he always seemed to show up when I needed someone the most. As I nodded, I felt the tension in his body ease, as if he was relieved just to hea

    TristanEveryone turned their gaze to the door. Elsa approached me, looking unpleasant at what I had said. “My father gave everything to support you. He lost his life to defend you. And in return, you will disgrace our pack and his legacy by turning down our help?” Her cold stare put us into silence. Elsa’s presence alone carried the whole cabin to a whole new level. She was different from the first time I met her. “We are not cowards, Alpha Tristan. We would rather die on the battlefield than be humiliated like this.” Ruther and Mike’s eyes suddenly changed. Their souls were already crying for revenge. As a warrior, I knew how they felt, and I couldn’t blame them. They could no longer contain the rage stirring in their hearts. Though I completely understand their desire to avenge the death of Alpha Earl, I cannot allow any more blood to spill. Another life loss would be too much for me to handle. I cannot risk any more lives because of my own problems. “I will never disgrace th

    Elaine“Let me go, Tristan! I have to save Trevor. He’s in danger.”I shoved Tristan’s hands away and rushed to the pack’s entrance. There’s no point in waiting another second while Trevor is dying in Travis’ hands.“Elaine! Wait!” Tristan ran after me and blocked my way. “I’m sorry, but I can’t let you go out of this pack.”I pushed Tristan in front of me. Hard. Saving Trevor was the most obvious thing to do now. I no longer cared what was gonna happen to me. Nothing would stop me from saving Trevor. Not Tristan, not anyone. “I won’t stand here doing nothing, Tristan. So get out of my way.”As soon as I took another step, Tristan pulled my arms. His face flushed in anger. “Are you out of your mind?! What can you do against Travis? It’s suicide!” His hands were still on my arms, gripping them hard.I scoffed at his statement. I looked straight into his eyes, showing no fear in facing our enemies.“We didn’t train for nothing, Tristan. You know how special I am. They would be no matc

    ElaineElsa embraced the lifeless body of Alpha Earl. She didn’t let go for a long time until Ruther gently approached her.“Alpha Elsa… your father needs to rest now.”With a cold, expressionless face, Elsa nodded. Ruther and Mike signaled to the warriors gathered around. Tears still streamed down their faces as they carefully lifted Alpha Earl’s body.Mike stepped forward and addressed the Silver Rose pack.“Let’s give the Alpha his final rites.”In silence, everyone began to move. Tristan and I were left alone. I observed the others for a while. It was like they all instinctively knew what to do.Night fell quickly. Everyone moved in perfect synchrony. It almost felt like a ritual embedded in their hearts. Tristan and I sat quietly on a wooden bench to the side and silently watched them.“Hey, Tristan…” I whispered. “Do you have any idea what’s happening?”Maybe he knew. After all, he was an Alpha. But Tristan sighed and shook his head.“I don’t. But out of respect for the late Alp

    ElaineI thought our return would be filled with smiles and laughter. It was the total opposite of what we imagined about the pack welcoming us. Instead of smiles and messages of how proud they were about our success, the Silver Rose pack welcomed us with their cries.Alpha Earl tilted his head, faintly smiling at us. “I’m glad you made it.” Alpha Earl coughed blood as soon as he spoke.Elsa delicately held him. I held my mouth, terrified by the nightmare I was witnessing in front of me. Ruther and Mike flooded their faces with tears. Tristan bit his lip, turning his gaze away from the dying Alpha. Strangely, Elsa didn’t show any emotions and just held her father.I took a step back when I saw the ugly lash on his side. I felt like my knees would give out any second. Tristan held my shoulder for support.More blood oozed from Alpha Earl’s mouth. Shortly, their spot was filled with more blood coming from his wound. Every wolf around him was alarmed.“He must have fought with someone s

    ElaineMike and Ruther looked at each other. I didn’t know what they were thinking. But I saw something in their eyes that I hadn’t seen in the days we were together. Fear. Worry. Something…serious. My stomach turned. I suddenly felt my throat dry all of a sudden. There was something eerie hovering in the air that made my skin crawl. And yet, all I could do was to stay quiet and observe. I felt Tristan stepped beside me. He was close enough for me to feel the heat from his body. His body became tensed. I wasn’t looking at him but I could feel through his whole posture that he was preparing for something worse. He was ready to protect. To protect me. Elsa walked a few steps and crouched low. By the looks of it, she was looking for something. Or to describe it exactly, she was investigating the ground for any clues. Suddenly, I heard her growl. It was enough for me to be nervous more. “There’s blood,” she said. Her voice was cold but full of concern. “It’s still fresh so whateve

    ElaineEight days since we left Silver Rose Pack.I still couldn't believe that we had reached the final stage of our training. I watched the trees outside by the window of the cabin that became our temporary home with gratitude. It was like they were waving goodbye to me. I smiled at the thought. Maybe, they did. After all, they were the sole witness of the things we’ve been through here. And I was so glad that those sufferings yielded positive results that we were all grateful for. Tristan was packing the last of his things behind me. Meanwhile, the others were outside getting ready for our journey home.I pulled the straps on my bag and took a deep breath. I tried to keep my mind calm. So much had happened in the last few days. And today, we were finally leaving those things behind and ready to move forward. Towards our goal. I remembered our training under the waterfall. The water was freezing cold and hit our bodies hard. We had to stand under it for six hours without falling.

    TristanI felt the oozing lust in the way Elaine looked at me. But at the same time, I caught a glance of tremendous desperation in her. That broke me into pieces.“I promise. We will get through this night together,” I responded.Elaine smiled. There was still some sense left in her. I knew it was the drug that was doing this to her.Soon enough, Elaine folded her knees and held onto her chest. The pain struck her.“I feel warm inside… so warm that I can’t take this anymore… help me, Tristan.” Then violently, Elaine pulled my arms into a hug.After years of struggling through a life without her, the embrace that felt like home touched my skin again.“Your hug is like water quenching decades of thirst in my body.” Her breathing became heavy in my ears.Elaine pulled the back of my head.“Hey, handsome.” Her voice started to sing a different melody. Elaine now wore a tune of seduction.I instantly pulled away from her embrace.“No, Elaine. Stop this.”Earlier, Elaine was begging desper

    TristanI carried Elaine until we reached the camp. I put her inside our quarters before confronting Elsa. Elsa was completely calm. From the outside, we could hear Elaine’s agony, but these wolves seemed to have no care at all. By the way they stood and portrayed strange calmness, it was like everyone expected it to happen.“Something is off about your medicine!” I shouted at Elsa. “You’re not deaf to hear those screams, are you? Why are you standing here doing nothing?!”Elsa suddenly jumped from the porch, launching at me. It was good that my reflexes were fast enough to dodge the attack. I jumped away from her group.“What the fuck was that?” I exclaimed. Ruther and Mike didn’t bother to help and just watched.The second I removed my eyes from Elsa, she launched another surprise attack. This time, I saw an injection in her hand. I jumped to the side, dodging another shot.“Stop running away,” Elsa told me.Elsa twisted her left ankle and pounced on my whole body. She managed to

    TristanI looked at Elaine, checking every detail of her body. Clearly, the exhaustion in her body was pushed to its limits. We made it up to the last second. The training was a success. But at what cost?“Elaine… Can you hear me?” I asked her.I felt something was odd with her body heat. I touched Elaine’s forehead using the tip of my fingers. It was as hot as a kettle. Her body temperature was soaring high.“This is bad…” I muttered, turning my head around, seeking Elsa and Ruther.Elaine started moaning because of the fever. She twitched her body in different directions. I saw how Elaine clenched her fist, battling against the pain in her.“Elsa!” I called out to her.I gently placed Elaine’s head on the soft pillow and grabbed the towel I threw earlier. Then I soaked it deep into the water in the sink, ran back to Elaine, and placed it on her forehead.“Don’t worry, you’re gonna be alright.” I carefully wiped her head down to her neck, hoping the wet towel would help with the high
