Late Bloomer Hero BLOODMOON PACK
The scene unfolded in a dimly lit clearing, the only sound the soft rustling of leaves and the distant howling of wolves. The Bloodmoon pack gathered, their faces illuminated only by the faint light of the full moon. Colton, the alpha, stood at the center, his eyes scanning the crowd with a mix of disappointment and disdain. To Colton's right stood his beta, Ryder, his expression a mask of stoicism. On his left, the pack's elder, Akira, her eyes clouded with a mix of sadness and concern.‘Brothers and sisters,’ Colton began, his voice low and even. ‘We gather here today to discuss the decision we made regarding Ava. Her... condition, her lack of a wolf form, has always made her an outcast among us.’A murmur of agreement rippled through the pack, some members nodding their heads in agreement, while some pack members were exchanging uneasy glances. Colton's gaze swept across the clearing, his eyes lingering on each face.‘We made this decision together, as a pack,’ he continued. ‘But I
Late Bloomer Hero SARAH
Colton felt a tender hand gently shaking him from his siesta. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Sarah. Princess Sarah was a vision of loveliness, her slender figure draped in the finest silks and satins of the era. Her golden hair, styled in intricate ringlets, framed a heart-shaped face with porcelain skin and delicate features. Her bright blue eyes sparkled like diamonds in the candlelight, fringed with thick lashes that added to their allure. A small, rosebud mouth and a smattering of light freckles across her cheeks only added to her enchanting beauty. Her elegant neck and shoulders were showcased by a daringly low neckline, adorned with delicate lace and sparkling jewels. As she glided across the room, her full skirts rustling with each step, Sarah embodied the epitome of royal grace and refinement, a true princess of her time.Who would not want to make such a beauty their life-mate? Colton knew that Sarah had it all; beauty, intelligence, power and affluence. She had been train
Late Bloomer Hero ONSET OF THE MISSION
Nadia had taught Ava how to stealthily hide and move in oneness with the dark night. She had discovered many secret places in the gingham forest. Many of her animal friends paid her visits regularly in her cave as she worked on her major mission. Ava had just finished a hearty meal and was poring over the journal in the wooden chest, trying to understand the strange symbols which would explain other things in the chest; the portion, powder and dagger. They must all serve special purposes. She wondered how she could understand these mysteries.‘Ava, my friend, how are you doing today?’ The owl, now a regular visitor to Ava’s cave, peered into the cave and asked.‘I am doing fine. Come in.’ Ava answered. The owl flew in and settled beside Ava.‘Nadia, how are you?’ Nadia growled in response from within Ava, causing her green eyes to shine with a touch of red.‘Jealous, are you?’ The owl asked jokingly. ‘Sorry, next time I will greet you first before I greet Ava, my good friend Nadia.’ N
Late Bloomer Hero MATE TROUBLES
Sebastian Denizens’ imposing 6'4" frame radiated an aura of confidence and authority. His raven-black hair was cropped short, accentuating his chiseled features and piercing grey eyes that seemed to gleam like silver in the right light. His sharp jawline and prominent cheekbones gave him a striking, angular appearance, while his small nose and full lips added a hint of sensuality to his otherwise rugged demeanor. A scattering of dark stubble across his chin and cheeks only added to his rugged charm, as if he had just stepped away from a long, intense run under the full moon. His broad shoulders and powerful build seemed to fill the space around him, exuding a sense of strength and dominance that was impossible to ignore. When he moved, his muscles rippled beneath his skin like a predator unfolding from a crouch, ready to strike at a moment's notice.Few days after sighting the rogues in gingham forest, Sebastian had a meeting with his pack members. The pack headquarters was hidden dee
Late Bloomer Hero RIVAL PRODUCT
The conference room fell silent as Sebastian's gaze swept across the somber faces of his marketing team. The air was thick with tension, heavy with the weight of unspoken fears. The latest sales reports lay scattered on the polished wood table, a grim testament to the company's struggles. The marketing manager shuffled to his feet and moved to the front, beads of sweat formed on his forehead already etched with worry as he made failed attempts to compose himself long enough to give his report, without being hammered to pieces by Sebastian, the CEO, who was tapping his finger on the table, evidently reigning in his anger at the situation on ground."Gentlemen, ladies," Thompson began, his tenor voice hesitant, "our competition, Ravenwood Remedy, has launched a new product. 'Euphorix' is its name." He paused, surveying the room as his team exchanged worried glances. "Euphorix is a revolutionary pain reliever, boasting faster absorption rates and longer-lasting effects than our flagship
Late Bloomer Hero PARENTS
“Well, that won’t do!” Patricia glared at Sebastian defiantly. “Give us a solution quickly or we might take an option.”“Option? Which option do you have?” Sebastian asked, sensing a deeper crisis looming.“Denizens Phamaceuticals is not the only company I can invest in. Since I have limited resources, I may have to reconsider where to invest.”Sebastian understood the red hair woman and her temper. He took a deep breath and forced a smile on his face, his charm fully turned on.“Dear Madam Patricia, gentlemen, you are Denizens Pharmaceuticals backbone. What would we do without you? No need for an option”. He looked at each of their faces intently before continuing. “We are on top of the situation. I assure you of a quality product in a short while.”The air was heavy with tension as the shareholders absorbed Sebastian's words, their faces reflecting a mix of frustration and uncertainty. Brody's calm presence seemed to be the only anchor in the stormy room, his eyes fixed on Sebastia
Late Bloomer Hero LILA’S OFFER
As Sebastian hung up the phone, he could not help but feel a sense of relief wash over him. His mother's words had soothed his frazzled nerves, and he was grateful for her unwavering support.Just then, a soft knock on the door broke the silence. "Come in," Sebastian called out, expecting it to be Brody with some update or another. But to his surprise, Lila slipped into the room, her slender figure gliding across the floor with grace. Her long, dark hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, and her bright green eyes sparkled with concern."Hey, Seb," she said softly, using the nickname only she and his family used. "I heard about the sales drop. I'm so sorry."Sebastian's gaze drifted over her, taking in the comforting sight of her gentle smile and the warm, golden glow of her skin. Lila was his parents' choice mate for him, the one they had chosen to be his partner in life and leadership. But to Sebastian, she was more like a sister, a close friend he had grown up with."Hey, Lil
Late Bloomer Hero THANKS BUT NO
Sebastian's expression softened, his eyes filled with gratitude. "Lila, I appreciate your offer, truly. Your help would mean the world to me, and I know it would make a huge difference for Denizens Pharmaceuticals." Lila's face lit up with hope, her eyes sparkling with excitement. But Sebastian's next words gently extinguished that spark."However, I can't ask you to do that, Lila. I won't use our friendship as leverage for business gain. It's not right, and it's not fair to you."Lila's smile faltered, her eyes clouding over with disappointment. But she nodded understandingly, her voice barely above a whisper."I knew you'd say that, Seb. You're too honorable, too kind."Sebastian's heart ached at the sadness in her voice, the resignation in her eyes. He reached out, taking her hand in his."Lila, please know that my decision has nothing to do with my feelings for you. You're an incredible person, and I value our relationship above everything. But I need to find another way to save D
