“Young man," he said, his voice laced with an undercurrent of hidden emotions, "I sense a familiarity about you. Have we met before?"

I paused, caught off guard by his remark. "I... I'm not sure," I stammered, trying to collect my thoughts. "I don't recall ever meeting you Sir. But there's something about you that feels... familiar."

Jasmine's mother, interjected with a warm smile. "Perhaps it's just a coincidence, dear," she said soothingly. "We're grateful you brought Jasmine home safely. You must be tired after such a long journey. Why don't you stay for dinner? We'd love to hear the story of your adventure."

I hesitated, my instincts telling me that there was more to Mr. Thompson's familiarity than mere chance. But their kindness and hospitality were genuine, and I couldn't ignore the invitation. "Thank you, Ma’am ," I replied, my voice tinged with gratitude. "I would be honoured to join you for dinner."

As we gathered around the table, the atmosphere shifted. There was an underly

The echoes of Levi's presence still lingered, his touch and his unwavering protection etched into the fabric of my being.A wistful smile tugged at the corners of my lips as I recalled the stolen kisses, tender and electrifying, shared on our way back.

    As the first rays of dawn filtered through my bedroom window, gently nudging me from the embrace of slumber, I blinked my eyes open, greeted by the soft hues of morning light. A sense of anticipation fluttered in my chest as I realized a new day had dawned, brimming with possibilities and the promise of reuniting with Levi.With a stretch and a yawn, I rose from my bed, feeling the warmth of the morning caress my skin. The routine of the day beckoned, a symphony of familiar tasks that held a comforting rhythm. I made my way to the bathroom, the cool tiles beneath my feet invigorating my senses.

    Cherry POVI sat down with my eyes closed, wondering how long it was going to take before the food I ordered arrived. It had been a while since I last ate, and I'd developed an appetite for some reason. Though, I wasn't sure why that might be..."Hey, is there anyone here who's good at cooking? I'm starved." I said aloud, as if someone would answer me. No one did, however."Oh well," I sighed, opening my eyes. "That means I'll have to do it myself..."When I stood up from my chair, I noticed something odd: The table behind me was empty. Huh...? So where are all the people who were sitting there just now?! Did they leave without saying anything? Or maybe they went outside? But even then, it wouldn't make sense for them to leave so suddenly... Unless they were kidnapped or something. That would mean that we're in a whole other world, though...With no idea what to do, I decided to head out of the restaurant and look around town for any clues about what happened. On my way to the door, h

    I woke up the next morning feeling refreshed. I opened my eyes and saw the little boy lying on the bed beside me. He was awake and staring at me, so I got up and offered him some water."Hey... Where are you going?" he asked as I stood up."I'm gonna take a shower," I said. "Will you come with me?""Me?""Yeah, you know, to wash your hair.""Oh... Okay, I guess I will.""Great!" I grinned happily. "I'll go get some shampoo, so wait here."When I got back to the bedroom with the bottles of shampoo, the little boy was gone. I looked around the room, wondering where he had disappeared to, but there wasn't anyone else there.I heard a noise coming from outside, so I peeked out of the window. It was raining heavily, and there was lightning in the sky. Hmm, looks like it's really bad out there... Maybe he's waiting for me under the porch roof...I took the raincoat hanging on the wall and put it on. I then opened the door and stepped out onto the porch. There, I saw the kid sitting on a ben

    "Of course, I do," I replied. We were lying on his bed. His hands caressed my skin while mine gently touched his chest. The warmth of his body surrounded me.We kissed. A moment later, he pulled away from me and stared into my eyes. "I love you so much, Cherry.""I love you too, Andrew."After that night, I fell madly in love with him. He was the one I thought about every day. My mind wouldn't let go of the idea that he was my destiny. I didn't know what would happen between us, but I knew it'd be something special.One evening, when we were together alone, he told me something I never expected to hear. "I have a confession, Cherry.""What is it?" I asked."When I met you, I instantly knew that this was the girl for me," he answered."You mean, you've been in love with me since the first time you saw me?""Yes, I have. And now I want to spend the rest of my life with you."My heart jumped inside my chest. "Really? You mean it?""Absolutely," he replied. "I don't think there's anyone e

    Andrew followed me to his car, and we drove to his doctor's office."Mr. Andrews, I'm Dr. Duarte," the doctor greeted us."I know who you are," Andrew replied."Let's go sit down, Mr. Andrews," he said. "I need to talk to you about your test results."Once we were seated, the doctor examined Andrew. He then grabbed a pen and paper and began taking notes."Since you're here, I assume you know what you're dealing with?" he asked."Yes, we do," Andrew replied. "I have cancer.""I can't imagine how difficult this must be for you," Dr. Duarte said. "I'm going to write you a prescription, and we'll go over the details of the treatment plan.""Can I bring my wife along?" Andrew asked."Of course," the doctor replied. "I'm sure it would be helpful for her to understand what we're talking about."He wrote the prescription, and the three of us left the office."Do you want to stop by the pharmacy before going home?" I asked."Yes, I would," Andrew replied.We went to the closest store and picke

Little did I know that this detour would lead me to a captivating encounter.As I pulled into the gas station, I noticed a woman standing by one of the pumps, her gaze fixed on the ground.

    “Nice to meet you, Cherry," I greeted her with a smile, extending my hand for a handshake. Cherry returned my smile, reaching her hand to return the handshake."It's a pleasure to meet you too, Jasmine." She said.I glanced over at Levi, my curiosity piqued. "How come You never mentioned her to me, Levi?"Levi's cheeks flushed slightly as he chuckled nervously. "Well, that’s because I’m meeting her for the first time. So are you."His response, though unexpected, filled me with a sense of relief. The lingering doubts and insecurities that had plagued my mind seemed to dissipate, replaced by a newfound ease. It was clear that Cherry and Levi's relationship was platonic, and I could breathe a little easier.Cherry, ever the inquisitive older woman, tilted her head and looked back and forth between Levi and me. "So, are you two like… dating?"I smirked, glancing at Levi, eager to hear his response. "Well, Levi, what do you say?"Levi met my gaze, his eyes sparkling with affection. "Yes,

    A playful challenge glinted in his eyes, and I couldn't help but laugh softly. The atmosphere was charged with a mixture of anticipation and desire as he carried me upstairs to our master bedroom. In no distant time we found ourselves devouring each other’s lips as the growing sexual tension between us reached an all time high. My soft gasps and moans filled the air as his hands began exploring every inch of my body, turning me on more and more. I managed to break off from the kiss and I said, “I’m ready, my love, please be gentle, you know it’s my first time.” Levi then placed his right hand on my cheek and uttered reassuringly, “I will, trust me okay?” And afterward, he proceeded to Mark me as his mate. It all happened and I enjoyed every bit of it. I wish we did it sooner because it just felt too good. He’s like a master of Sex or something.

A day filled with excitement, nerves, and a touch of apprehension.Levi's image flashed through my mind as I reached for the soap. The approval from the top ranking board of the Black Moon Pack was a turning point for us. The fact that he could officially have a human mate was a milestone that had been a long time coming. The countless meetings, discussions, and negotiations had finally paid off, and today, Levi and I were going to seal our mate bond.I couldn't help but smile as the water rinsed away the soap, a mixture of happiness and anticipation bubbling up within me.

    *Levi’s POV*The drive to Burger Queens felt unusually long, the weight of the news and the gravity of the situation hanging heavily between Jasmine and me. The air inside the car was heavy with silence, our usual chit chat and playful banter was eplaced by a somber atmosphere. The knowledge of Sarah's betrayal and the loss of Tyrel weighed on us, creating a distance that words couldn't just bridge.As we parked and exited the car, we exchanged a glance, both of us bracing ourselves for what we were about to face. The absence of any dramatic police presence was surprising, and it heightened the sense of convenience. The once vibrant eatery now stood empty and abandoned, a testament to the violence that unfolded here.Jasmine and I moved inside cautiously, our steps echoing in the quiet space. We scanned the area, our eyes searching for any sign of Cherry and Tyrel. And then, faint sobs reached my ears, drawing my attention towards a corner of the room. I met Jasmine's gaze, and she no

With a swift, decisive motion, I reached for the silver dagger piercing my chest and pulled it out, ignoring the searing pain that followed.Before Aaron could react, I lunged at him, my movements fueled by a mix of rage and determination. He seemed taken aback, perhaps underestimating my strength and resolve.

It was a swift and brutal act, but at that moment, I couldn't let him harm me or Cherry any further.

    As the pain intensified, I felt my legs weaken beneath me, and I stumbled to the floor. The silver arrow protruding from my chest was a chilling reminder of my vulnerability. Cherry's voice sounded distant as she explained the gravity of the situation, her own fear evident in her trembling words."It's a silver arrow, Tyrel," she said, her voice quivering with worry. “I need to get help!”I tried to focus on her words, on the urgency in her eyes, but the pain was overwhelming, clouding my thoughts.

    Still processing the intensity of the encounter, I mustered the courage to ask, "What's your name?"She smiled warmly, her eyes sparkling with intrigue. "Cherry Leonhart," she replied, her voice soft and melodious. "And you?""N-nice to meet you, Cherry," I stammered, a mix of nervousness and excitement making my heart race.

    Aaron took a moment to absorb my words, his expression reflecting both concern and support. "I'll deliver the message," he said, his voice unwavering. "But be prepared for their reaction.""I know it won't be easy," I said, a hint of weariness in my voice. "But it's time we take a stand and assert our own authority as a pack. We won't be pawns in their schemes any longer."Aaron nodded, his loyalty and dedication shining through. "You can count on me, Alpha Tyrel," he said, his voice filled with sincerity.I took a moment to gather my thoughts, choosing my words carefully as I addressed Aaron. "I want to give you a piece of advice," I began, my tone calm yet serious. "Your dedication and love for the pack's welfare are commendable, but at times, it feels like you care even more than I do, the Alpha. It can be seen as if you have ulterior motives, beyond the pack's welfare."Aaron's expression changed, a mix of surprise and concern crossing his features. "Are you implying that I have h

    After the address in the hall room, I retreated to the solace of my room, needing a moment to collect my thoughts. The weight of responsibility and the enormity of the decisions I had just made settled heavily on my shoulders. As I entered my room and closed the door behind me, I let out a sigh of both relief and frustration.Sitting on the edge of my bed, I ran my hands through my hair in exasperation. "What do I do next?" I whispered to myself, my voice reflecting a mix of uncertainty and self-doubt.
