**Cassie’s POV**I yawned and saw my Marion wake up like this. He is looking at nothingness, and I can't help but cackle. My son is so cute! And he looks exactly like his dad.At least I can still remember Kaiden's face because of my son.I smiled sadly, but I also changed my expression as fast as I could. I do not want him to see me this way—sad, I guess."What do you want for breakfast, my little young man?" I asked him. He smiled and he told me to have crispy fried bacon and ham as well.I accompany him inside the bathroom and let him do his morning routine. After freshening up, we are good to go.There are plenty of appliances and things here inside, provided by Uncle Mason. So there is no problem for us since there is a fridge and gas stove, and we can now cook for our breakfast.I sighed and imagined that it had only been a few weeks since Kaiden was gone, for real.It feels off, to be honest—not just off but empty inside of our hearts."Mom?" My son walk in my direction and he
**Cassie’s POV**Angel offered her hands to help me organize everything on this new pad. To be perfectly honest, if we talk about strength, I can finish alone this arrangement of this apartment, but as of now since I am emotionally unstable and still dealing with mental health, I can't let go of her offer.She is cleaning the kitchen while I am arranging the single bedroom. I am a bit embarrassed because this is our first meeting, and she has to deal with all of this. But I can see that she is also happy and nice about all of this.For some refreshments, I began pouring a cup of lemonade into a glass. I hand it to her after she cleans the floor."I am sorry if you have to put off your day with this," I said to her.She cocks her head. "I offered, so there is nothing to say sorry for." You know, my mother is also a single mom. I do not want to ask because your privacy matters, but I am not wrong, right? I hope I am not offending you," she said, biting her lips. I can see that she does
**Cassie’s POV**I've been through a lot of stress lately, but that does not mean that I will stay this way. No matter how devastated I am, it is still a fact that someone needs me. I have my son, and Kaiden will be sad if I am someone who can't handle my child.I am not alone in this battle, and I may be sad and in grief, but one day I will make it. We will make it with my son.While I am reading the news and printing the documents needed, luckily Angel let me borrow her printer, so now I am busy doing this. I have to earn money for this expensive place.Back to reality, someone knocks on the door, and when I peeked into the hole, I saw my brothers and my father waiting there. I opened the door and hugged them tightly. It feels much better because they are here.It feels different when I am with my family. At least I can say that they are someone I can lean on.Ben and Tom will be leaving on different pads because they are with their mate, so, understandably, they will live with thei
**Derek’s POV**I still cannot forget that day. I know I was drinking that night and had a couple of fights with some random guys because the bitches who tried to share a bed with me already had their boyfriend. I ended up ganging up with men, but I was thankful that I survived that fight.But little did I know that night; the brakes of my car failed, and I was in a car accident.When I woke up, my only relative and my cousin Ally were the only ones waiting on me.He said that I almost died; to be exact, my heartbeat stopped for almost an hour, and it is a miracle that I survived that crash. They thought I was as good as dead as soon as they saw me.But like a real miracle, I am recovering fast, almost like a damn vampire or werewolf from cliche books or movies. It's been a week and a day since I was discharged from that hospital, and I only had a few bruises and scratches. They are trying to ask me if they can assess me further because it is such impossible thing that they can see me
**Cassie’s POV**When I received a call from Angel, she said that I should come to the office immediately on Monday because I am already hired due to a lack of manpower, I had never been so excited again like this time.I am just a bit worried about my son now. Ever since I birthed Charlie, I have always been a hands-on mother. I took care of him, and I had never been away from my son for the longest time, and I am afraid again of changes.But I am so glad that my son is a smart child. I am in the living room and explaining to him that I will be away in the meantime."I am sorry," I said to Charlie in a broken voice.This is not a wild forest where we can hunt our food and survive with what we have, even for a little. This is a human world. We cannot survive without money for buying food and paying expenses and bills."It is okay, Mom. Don't be sad; I will be a good boy. I understand," he said to me. And he resembles his father too much. So that my loneliness isn't that difficult. Tha
**Cassie’s Pov**I blinked my eyes and was embarrassed about being emotional at the wrong place and time.I tried to take my handkerchief from my pants, but my boss gave me his. I hurriedly wiped my tears and gave him an apologetic smile."I am so sorry; that is so embarrassing. I suddenly miss my husband; it has not been that long since I lost him," I said to him."I am sorry for your loss." I shook my head and stood from the chair. "I will go back to my paperwork if you will excuse me. Do you need anything, sir?" I tried to ask him. Maybe he has worked for me, not just because of that coffee.He gestures no, so I excuse myself and go straight to my table. No matter how I imagine what I have done in front of my boss, that is damn embarrassing.I bit my lips and sighed. I want a normal life now, and I am slowly doing it. I hope Kaiden will guide me from now on. If he is somewhere now, I hope he is still looking for us and watching us there.I started to continue organizing these docum
**Cassie’s POV**That celebration was not bad at all. I have lots of fun, and at least it helps me to forget that thing that I have been struggling with for the past few weeks. My dad said that talking to other people and focusing on other things will help me cope, and I think he is right.Angel insisted that she would drive me home, and I cannot disagree with her, especially with those glistening eyes of hers. I have no heart to reject such a wonderful offer from a wonderful person. She might be a little bit rude to our boss, but she is kind. There is no need to doubt it.Before leaving, I approached Mr. Ross, said goodbye, and thanked him for his warm welcome party."Ahm, thanks for the treat; I am so happy about it, but why did you let us off this early?" I asked him. asking ink I am being too shameless. Asking that straightforward way."You are new, and I think you need to take a little bit of rest. This day is intended for you to familiarize yourself with yourself, and I think yo
**Cassie’s Pov**"I just hope you are not traumatized by what you saw. It is my fault that you watch such a damn sight." I can see and feel her anger right now. It is obvious in his pen, which is now broken in half."I guess I am not. Don't bother getting angry over such trivial things. You informed me in advance that he is the type of boss, and it lessens the impact, I guess." On the other hand, I should be fine with it.Werewolves are the kind of creatures who boldly show their love and affection. Love and loyalty are things that matter to us. Maybe I shrieked in surprise at that time because it was the wrong place and time for them to do such a thing.But it does not change the fact that I felt a strange pain as I saw him doing that thing."I will just give him a good beating." "Now, I can foresee him hiding because he knows that I will hunt him down," Angel said in her macho voice."Let's forget it and do our work." "It is not worth it to waste our time with that kind of topic."S
