**Dax's POV**My name is Dax Wood, and I currently reside in Claybourne City. I am a former member of the military who is part-American and half-Mexican. It had been less than a year since that unfortunate event occurred. In my head, everything is still as distinct as if it were made of glass. I am aware of how hazardous the nature of my work used to be. I swore an oath to defend the nation in every way possible, even if it meant giving up my own life. But I had no idea that it would turn out to be so incredibly different from what I had imagined it would be.I am a member of a special unit that is currently engaged in combat during a war. The sounds of a fire gun and explosions are never something I find myself missing. I was under the impression that designing was a component of my commitment; however, I had no idea that when I opened my eyes, I would see, I would watch, and I would be unable to do anything other than watch as terrorists ruthlessly murdered my soldiers, my friend,
**Derek’s POV**I am Derek, a well-known business tycoon, a popular personality in different fields, and someone that every woman will wish to be their lover. But I never settle for anyone because I do not believe it is worth it.I have the looks, the money, the body, the reputation, and the fame. I do not think that settling down with any woman is something that I should do since it is simply not me.I remember that night. I was so drunk, and I am so stubborn not to get a driver and recklessly drive. That gave me a life lesson. I thought that was my last party, my last night, and my last time to have fun because I can still remember how severe that car accident was. I can only feel pain; my blood is dripping all over my body. I thought that was my end, and I would be sent to hell.But I saw a man and a woman talking about something that I cannot remember anymore. The only thing that matters is that I am alive and kicking—maybe not kicking since the doctor said that it is a miracle th
**Cassie’s Pov**We have no idea, but suddenly I felt chills running down my body as I could sense two werewolves in this building. It is both familiar and unfamiliar. This is odd because I can also feel that they are not a bad person or something, but I think our situation right now does not accept only hunches. I need to ensure the safety of my family, especially my son."Dad, please go to the other room; I will see who those unwanted visitors of ours are," I said to them. They look worried, but I just nodded, and they know that I can manage.I slowly left my apartment room and went silently to Dax’s apartment. Is he safe? Why does this smell so bad? Those werewolves are amateurs if they can’t hide their smell, especially if they are here for the sake of killing us.I sighed, took a good momentum before kicking the door, and I saw the shocked expressions of Damon, Dax, and Derek. I once again sniffed the air because I thought something was wrong with my senses. Did I just make a mis
**Cassie’s POV**I woke up in a strange fancy room. I can see that I am inside a very luxurious hotel room if I am not mistaken. But why would a very rich human, just a conclusion, will kidnap me?I look in the mirror and I am now dressed in a pretty dress. It is a white, above-the-knee dress, and it made me even more confused knowing that the agenda of the kidnappers start to be vague. It is my birthday today! What the hell?I went to the door, and surprisingly it is not locked so I opened it. I became alert when I saw that there is no one in this corridor, such, as there are flower trails on the red carpet. I think I am seeing where it will go now.I follow the trail until I reached a very big door. As I opened it, there is a fancy party inside that big room. I think I am not supposed to be here.I tried to back away, but I was bumped into a hard wall or rather a hard chess. It is no other than Derek and Dax wearing a fancy suit, looking as handsome as ever.“Someone can care to exp
**Cassie’s POV**Well, at least my days became more peaceful. I think slowly and surely I can admit and accept the fact that I am falling in love again. My only concern now is whether I should choose I like them both. I mean, it sounds so greedy to love them both, but I truly want them for myself alone.It is not weird for me since sometimes werewolves have two fated pairs, but these two men in my life were not werewolves from the start. They might think it is weird that I want polyfidelity."Is it because it is cold, or your face is so frozen that I am getting a brain freeze just looking at you?" Dale teased me while he was raising his eyebrows. Funny."Shut up. Don’t I ask you to sign the pending documents at your office? The deadline will be an hour from now," I said to him. Is he really my boss? He is always slacking and just walking round and round. He gets on my nerves most of the time."Chill, after all, you will have a new boss starting next week," he said to me like he just d
**Cassie’s Pov**I decided to do some grocery shopping after leaving work. I am a bit surprised about the outcome of Dax becoming my boss, but I get what Angel and Dale are saying: that my new boss is kind and someone who is close to my heart, and I completely agree with that. I think I like the idea of Dax being my boss, thank goodness."Angel, I am so shocked to know everything," I said to her while Damon was pushing our cart full of vegetables, fruits, and different types of meat. My new condominium unit is three times as big compared to the last one, and I need to restock some of my supplies as well as cook for tonight. My son is growing so fast that he needs a lot of nutrients."Yeah, actually, Dax knows that you hate surprises, but he is afraid that if you learn that he will be your new boss, you will leave and disagree," Angel muttered. I look at her in disbelief."Why would I do that?" I asked. I mean, Dax is a great guy. I trust him, and he is someone that I know will treat m
**Cassie's Point of View**MY EYES are tired from crying and sleeping late. I am not feeling well, to be precise, and this is the appropriate time for me to request a leave of absence because I believe I will become unwell.Werewolves have excellent stamina and health most of the time. We are beings that are practically bulletproof and invincible, but we, like all other creatures, have flaws.So, aside from silver, what do you suppose a werewolf's weakness is? Right! Any werewolf can die from too much misery. We have a very delicate heart, and I am fortunate to be strong enough to bear with the loss of my own spouse.I'm suffering with emotion sickness again, and my body feels so heavy that I can't get out of bed. It's cold, which could be because I forgot to close my window last night. I asked Angel if she could take my schedule for the time being, promising to return the favor, and I am overjoyed that she agreed. I'm now suffering from a severe headache, which is causing me to be ex
**Cassie's Point of View** "Let us take a break, son," I suggested, as we were about to take one. We spent almost three hours practicing. I believe it is past time for us to get some rest."Son," I queried Charlie, who was smiling as he gazed out at the great woodland. It hadn't been long, yet I felt compelled to learn more about my son. "You're getting bigger now, and I'm so sorry that it appears that I'm failing as a mother to you," I apologized honestly, as I felt I wasn't fulfilling my responsibility as a mother to my pup. He'll always remain my young Charlie, whom I adore.Right now, my son is wiping away my tears, kissing them, and giving me a reassuring grin. "Mom, you don't have to apologize; there's nothing to apologize for, Mom; I love you, and I appreciate everything you do for me." "If I have a mom in my next life, I will always choose you over and over," he replied, making me cry even harder."Could you please stop crying, Mom?" "You know I promised Dad that whatever hap
