Ivan's heart squeezed with hurt when Maya ran away from him; he felt a physical sharp pang and hated himself.This was all his fault because if only he had been sincere with her from the beginning, maybe she would have understood and stayed. Maya's dad rushed after her without even sparing him a glance.I knew that even if somehow a miracle happened and he reconnected with Maya, her parents were not going to forget the deception. He felt so stupid for not doing things differently.She was on his mind every hour round the clock, and he missed her so much; he missed their conversations, silly jokes, and their whirlwind romance.A lump formed in his throat, and he was left with an emptiness that he couldn't shake off. If only he could go back in time.He held his breath when he noticed my house, Mom still seated at their table. She fixed him with a disgusted look, and that gaze was going to haunt him for a very long time. His feet were stiff and heavy as he approached her and was ready fo
Maya stood behind her parents in the rowdy airport terminal. Her parents were saying goodbye to the king and her aunt while she stood aloof, with her gaze fixed on the floor and her hoodie brought low, covering half of her face.Her aunt tried to joke with her boss. She didn't move or respond. The king placed a hand on Maya's shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze."I'm certain that someday you will find your happiness, you will see," he said to her, and she felt uncomfortable by that harmless sentence.Waved at the king before turning to leave, Maya followed them, and they stopped at his departure gate where their flight announcement board displayed their flight information.She didn't know whether to be happy or sad about leaving the park. A part of her was relieved to be escaping the pain and heartache, but another part was grieving the loss of what could have been.Ivan's mark was imprinted on her body, and no matter where she went in this world, they were a painful reminder.She be
Elen's anger boiled over; he couldn't believe what Beatrice was up to. This was like taking things to a whole new level. She stooped so low as to involve his sister, someone who considered her her best friend, and this is how she repays her: a disgusting piece of shit. Her logic was funny. Did she really think kidnapping Maya would make him like her? This wasn't some silly romantic comedy where the guy falls for the girl who stalks him or his family; this was real life, and she was going to be punished for it. But first, he had to save his sister from that unhinged girl and get her away from her as soon as possible. He only hoped that she wasn't hurt already. Beatrice was playing with fire, and she had no idea how much she had crossed the line.He held Jennifer's hand as they burst through the club's entrance, pushing through the crowded dance floor, and made a beeline for the VIP lounge, searching the exclusive area's entrance, but just as they reached the door, a bouncer stepped in
Just as they were thinking of the next plan of action, Elen's phone rang, and he hesitated, seeing Beatrice's name on the caller ID. His mind raced with thoughts of what she could want now. Her voice was frantic, and a wild, desperate cry burst from her throat and flooded the phone with a raw wail."Elen, please help!”Elen's heart raced like a jackhammer, pounding in his chest as his mind raced with worst-case scenarios."Beatrice, you need to calm down and tell me what is happening.”He gripped the phone tightly, his eyes locked on Jennifer, whose eyes were wide with fear."I... I don't know what's wrong. I woke up, and Maya had shifted into her wolf, and she... she's... oh God, she's attacking us! She's in her wolf form, and we can't control her! We're going to die.”At first, Elen was dumbfounded, his mind struggling to process the absurdity of Beatrice's claim, but a mental image formed in his head. He flung his head back and burst into a very loud laughter that mocked the very i
On the morning of Ivan's wedding to Emily, he woke up feeling trapped. His curtains were drawn, and he shut his ears to the onslaught of activities taking place downstairs.Ivan lay in bed, his mind racing with thoughts of the impending wedding. His parents and sister knew that he didn't want this wedding to take place. He didn't want to marry someone he didn't love, especially after experiencing the depth of true affection with Maya.Emily wasn't a bad person; she was far from it. She was innocent in all of this, but if only she could grow a spine and refuse to submit to this wedding, then they would both be free, and who knows, he might have another chance with Maya and do the right thing.His heart was heavy, and he doubted highly that this marriage was going to work. He didn't even respond to his best friend, who entered the room and warned him to get out of bed so they wouldn't arrive at the ceremony late."Damn it! I don't want to marry her! My mom's controlling everything and ha
Emily looked beautiful in her gown. It was a long white dress with a flowing train that had lace detailing, with a veil covering her face, but Ivan couldn't even look at her. His anger grew as she approached him, a smile plastered on her face.His anger grew as she approached him. Why would anyone willingly sign up to spend the rest of their life with someone who doesn't love them? Emily was acting like a puppet, and it was sickening.It was as though she never believed that maybe one day she could find her mate and fall in love for real. Her family controlled her, and she obeyed their every word.His anger grew when the elder began to emphasize marriage and its commitment. Ivan tuned out, his mind racing with thoughts of Maya and the life he was supposed to have. He couldn't bear to listen to the elder's words, knowing that the supposedly wise elder was supposed to see that he didn't want this marriage."Ivan and Emily, today you embark on a journey of commitment. Marriage is a sacred
Maya had experienced too many painful scenes in the last few weeks, and her anguish was so severe that it caused physical pain. She deeply regretted trusting others.And so she decided to put her problems aside tonight and get ready for her brother and Jennifer's relationship announcement party. Maya didn't see the point, but whatever rocked their boat.It was a pajama party, and she was dressed in fluffy pajamas with cartoon animals on them. It had been more than three weeks since Beatrice pulled that stupid stunt on her, and the betrayal was still fresh in her mind.She wanted to spend her evening tucked in her bed, but it was her brother's party, and she couldn't decline.She put on a brave face and tapped her foot to the DJ's party anthems, and before long, she was dancing with abandon. Her brother could not stop staring at her; he must have wondered if she had lost her mind or something.She picked up a champagne bottle, which popped. She then filled the glass and sipped the bubbl
