It's been a few weeks now, and my feelings for Alex have been growing stronger. We went on long walks, had deep conversations, and checked out some places in the city together.I couldn't believe how much I had fallen for him. He was kind, caring, and made me feel seen and heard in a way that no one else ever had.But despite my growing feelings for Alex, I couldn't shake off the feeling that Vincent and Micheal won't stop pushing.I tried to push the thought aside and focus on the present moment, but it was hard to shake off the feeling of unease that had settled in the pit of my stomach.As the day of our proper date approached, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness.What would the night bring? Would it be the start of something special, or would it end in disaster?I pushed the thoughts aside and focused on getting ready for the night ahead.I put on my dress and did my hair, I couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.What would the night bring?I to
Ruth POVI decided to meet up with my friends Emily and Sarah at a coffee shop to tell them about Alex.As I sat down at the table, they could tell that something was different about me."Ruth, what's going on?" Emily asked, noticing the smile on my face."I met someone," I said, barely containing my excitement.Sarah's eyes widened. "Tell us everything!"I took a deep breath and told them about Alex - about how we met, our first date, and how I was feeling.Emily and Sarah listened intently, asking questions and making supportive noises.When I finished, Emily said, "Ruth, this sounds amazing. We're so happy for you."Sarah nodded in agreement. "You deserve it, Ruth. You've been through so much."I smiled, feeling grateful for my friends. "Thanks, guys. I know it's complicated. I'm still getting over Michael and Vincent, but I just want to feel loved and cared for right now."Emily and Sarah exchanged a knowing glance."We get it, Ruth," Emily said. "Just be careful and take things s
Michael's POV:I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Ruth, the woman I had claimed as my own, was now with another man. Alex, a shifter I had never met before. I felt a surge of jealousy and anger as I watched them together.I knew I had to act fast. I couldn't let Ruth slip through my fingers again. I began to stalk them, watching their every move.And then, I saw my chance. Alex was alone, walking through the forest. I pounced, grabbing him and dragging him deeper into the woods."You're not going to take her from me," I snarled, my Lycan powers surging through me.Alex struggled and fought back, but I was too strong. I could feel my powers overwhelming him.Just as I was about to deliver the final blow, Alex transformed into a wolf. I was taken aback, but my Lycan powers gave me the upper hand.I fought him off, my claws swiping at his fur. But Alex was relentless, refusing to back down.Finally, I managed to pin him to the ground. "You're not worthy of her," I spat, my anger and j
Michael POVI took a deep breath, a lot was going on in my mind. I would do whatever it took to win Ruth back, to prove to her that I was worthy of her love. I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I was willing to try.I began by reflecting on my past mistakes, on the ways I had hurt Ruth. I realized that I had been blind to her needs, to her feelings. I had been so consumed by my own jealousy and possessiveness that I had lost sight of what truly mattered.But I was determined to change. I would listen to Ruth, truly listen to her. I would support her, be there for her. I would prove to her that I was capable of change, that I was worthy of her love.I took a step forward, my heart pounding in my chest. I would do whatever it took to win Ruth back, to make her mine once more. I would fight for her, with every fiber of my being.And so, I set out on my journey, determined to win Ruth's heart once more. I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I was willing to try. I would do whatever it took to make
Micheal POVI couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction as I lay in bed with Emily, one of my omega's. We had been having an affair for a while now, and I knew it was only a matter of time before we got caught. But I didn't care. I was tired of pretending to be something I'm not.Just as we were about to have sexual, I heard the door creak open. I knew that sound, knew who it was. Rebecca. My heart sank, but I didn't move, didn't bother to cover us up. I was beyond caring.Rebecca's eyes widened as she took in the scene before her. Emily, naked, in my bed. Me, naked, with my arms around her. The air was thick with tension as Rebecca's face twisted in anger and hurt."Vincent, how could you?" she spat, her voice venomous.I shrugged, unapologetic. "I can do what I want, Rebecca. You know that."Rebecca's eyes flashed with tears. "But why? Why would you do this to me?"I sighed, rolling onto my back, Emily still clinging to me. "Because, Rebecca, our parents only want us to marry b
Vincent POVI lean by the wall and I just watch how Rebecca keeps tranting. I could see the anger and hurt burning in her eyes, but I didn't back down. I knew I had to face the consequences of my actions, and I was ready."Rebecca, I know you're upset," I said, my voice firm but calm. "But I'm not going to apologize for being true to myself. I'm not going to apologize for taking control of my life."Rebecca's eyes flashed with anger. "You're a monster, Vincent," she spat. "You're a heartless, selfish monster."I shrugged, unapologetic. "Maybe I am," I said. "But at least I'm being honest about who I am. At least I'm not pretending to be something I'm not."Rebecca's face twisted in rage, and for a moment, I thought she would launch herself at me. But then, something seemed to break inside her. She turned, and ran, leaving me standing alone in the doorway.I watched her go, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. I knew I had made a mess of things, but I was ready to face the consequen
Ruth POVI walked into the hotel, ready to tackle another day of work. The familiar scent of fresh flowers and polished marble greeted me, and I smiled, feeling a sense of comfort. I loved my job as a receptionist, and I took pride in being one of the friendliest faces guests saw when they arrived.As I clocked in and made my way to the reception desk, I noticed a colleague, Rachel, hovering around the coffee machine. She caught my eye and beckoned me over."Ruth, can I talk to you for a minute?" she asked, her voice low and conspiratorial.I raised an eyebrow, wondering what she wanted to say. "What's up?" I asked, pouring myself a cup of coffee.Rachel glanced around the lobby, making sure no one was listening. "I just found out something interesting," she said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "You know Alex, the guy you're always hanging out with?"I nodded, feeling a sense of trepidation. Where was this going?"Well, it turns out he's not just any guy," Rachel said, her voice
Ruth POV"I understand why you felt that way," I said, my voice softening. "But you should have trusted me. I thought we were friends.""We are friends, Ruth," Alex said, his eyes pleading. "And I'm sorry. I was wrong to keep it from you."I nodded, feeling a sense of forgiveness wash over me. Maybe I could forgive him, but I wasn't sure if I could ever trust him again."What else have you been hiding from me?" I asked, my voice firm.Alex hesitated, looking nervous. "There's something else," he said. "Something big."I raised an eyebrow, my heart pounding in my chest. What could it be?"Tell me," I said, my voice firm.Alex took a deep breath and launched into another explanation. This one was even bigger than the first.As I listened, my mind reeled with shock and anger. How could he keep this from me?But as I looked into his eyes, I saw the sincerity there. He was telling the truth, finally.And maybe, just maybe, I could forgive him and move forward.As Alex finished speaking, I
