“Do you speak Spanish?” asked the man who sat across facing me. “Yes, I do,” I answered and he nodded as he leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs. “Sierra Blair, excellent student, photography, botany, and biology, that’s you?.” He asked. How does he know me so well though?

“Yes sir, that’s me.”

“Leave of absence due to a comma.” He said as he shuffled through the papers on the desk looking for one. “Last week, you sent an email request to resume studies, correct?” he said squinting and looking through the laptop and then at the paper.

“Correct.”

“Ah, found it. Yes, your request was accepted and you’ll be starting on Tuesday next week. The schedule will be sent on our website as well as the requirement list, yes?” he said and smiled at me. He looked at me as if he knew me already. I mean, he does run this place.

“Ms. Blair, what do you want to do after college?” he asked as he leaned back once again.

“Wildlife conservation, and after a while, expeditions,” I answered and he no

    Sierra’s P.O.VThe wind blew calmly around me as I started to notice the change in the leaf color. Autumn was close. It feels like an eternity since winter was here mostly because I slept through winter and spring last year. Imagine how it would feel going to sleep and waking up when you’re a year older. Not as in sleeping through your birthday but sleeping through a whole year.I grazed my fingers over my cappuccino to get warmth from it. I looked through my bag and got the scrapbook that Courtney made me. I put my cappuccino aside and let out a breath before grazing my fingers over the cover. Decorated with my name and hers. Glitter sprinkles, colorful paper, and letter cutouts decorated it even a few drawings of flowers and hearts.I smiled softly as I decided to give reading it another try. I opened to page one and saw a picture of Courtney smiling with Aaron in the background not knowing what was going on. I smiled at it and read what it said.“11/10/2020. Today, Aaron came to my

    Sierra’s P.O.VThis was awkward. I was seated next to Xavier pretending to be listening to the lecture but actually had 100 thoughts running through my head at the same time. He wanted to leave at first but I felt guilty and lowkey wanted him next to me other than next to anybody else.In my peripheral view, I saw a white object. I looked and saw Xavier sliding me a note. I glanced at him for a brief second before reading it. “Can we please talk after the lecture?” it read. I reached into my bag and got a pen to write a reply to.I sent it back to him and looked at him. He looked back at me and it sent arrows to my heart. Why the fuck are his eyes still so bright? His scent turned joyful although his facial expression didn’t change which was kind of amusing, to be honest.~The lecture was done so I started to arrange my stuff and put them in my bag. I was still going to stay and talk to him. Soon everyone was out and we were left in our seats. “Sierra.” He said and I looked at him. H

    Sierra is an amazing woman. Just a week ago, all that filled my head was our future because I felt like I would never see those days. Cuddling in sheets, watching our kids play, taking care of her during her pregnancy, going on dinner dates when our kids are with their grandmother and so much more. Now I might actually see those days becoming a reality. The moment I reached the pack house, I was welcomed by Walter's expecting smile. "so how was my boy's day at school." he asked as he flung his hand over my shoulder. "You know I'm the alpha right?" he looked confused. "So what, we're still besties. So did you talk to her?" he asked and I let out a sigh. I felt half my weight the moment I stopped talking to her but at the same time, she didn't answer my question of whether she would give me a chance or not. "Yeah." I answered as we walked up to my room. "Any advances?" he asked and I took in a deep breath. A few moments of silence before I spoke again. "She said she forgave me,"

    "Where did you go wrong last time?" sigma Jane asked me as she tapped her long sharp fingernails on the handrest. Her gaze was boring holes into me. I didn't want to look at her for fear of getting swallowed or melted to ashes. She was absolutely furious. The last time I asked for advice, I simply didn't take it and messed up the Sierra thing. "I kept my personal details to myself," I said and she nodded once slowly. "So in all your alphaness you expected her to trust you when you didn't even trust her with simple honesty," she said and it hit hard because I couldn't look at it any other way. It was a lie. A firm relationship couldn't be built on smoke and mirrors. I couldn't even show her my scar. I had to hide my whole past and shadow it behind imaginary happiness in front of her. I met eyes with jane and ran my fingers through my hair. I clenched my jaw and unclenched it then I let out a sharp breath. "I know it's foolish of me to ask for so much from her in return for nothing

    I let my walking stick rest at my side as I tied my hair up in a towel. I looked at my face and noticed a slight difference, it’s like all of a sudden the pink patches on my skin disappeared completely. I squinted and blinked twice. Nothing changed. What the fuck? I untied my robe and looked at my naked body in the mirror. I put both my hands on top of my mouth. Why was my skin smooth as fuck, with no blemishes, and shit? ‘That’s the power of a mate, baby.’ ‘What do you mean by that?’ ‘Let’s just say, the closer you are to your mate, the better it is for your body and Xander just happens to be next door so…’ ‘Aha.’ What is the werewolf magical shit this? I looked at myself wide-eyed and got my walking stick to exit the bathroom. Wow, looks like I’m saving on my skin care products and medical bills then. I got dressed in simple home clothes, just a simple sweater, and sweatpants. I waddled out of my room to go do my work in the living room. Aaron and Courtney went to a nearby caf

    Sierra’s P.O.V “Ok, take my hand, gently,” Dom said as he led me through the pool. My legs were a bit wobbly in the water but it felt much easier doing it with my hand in his…lowkey because I was terrified of falling face fast into the water and splashing for my life in there. I took one step and another then boom, I had beat my record from the last time. From 50 steps to 52. “That’s good Sierra, do you want to take a break now?” he asked and I nodded. He led me back to the poolside and we sat at the edge in silence as he was checking something in his book that he usually brings with him. “Uh, Dom, I have a question.” “Go ahead and ask.”“Dom, remember the other friend of mine, with the blond hair?” I asked and he turned his attention to me in a slightly anxious way. I couldn’t really tell what was going on in his head. One thing was for sure, he did remember her. “No, I don’t remember someone like that.” I knew he was lying, he wasn’t good at lying. Around him was anxiety and

    I walked through the streets as the cold autumn night breeze gently tossed my hair around. I put her hoodie up and wandered back into my thoughts. Do I really have to choose one or maybe should I hold this decision for a while? Xander seems to know me, I don’t mean that I’ve seen you somewhere with knowledge, It’s more like the I’ve known you for a few years knowledge. It makes me a bit queasy inside. He knew my name before I even told him, he knew exactly how I make my tea, he knew how my kitchen was organized. And those are not things that I was thinking about so there was no way he would’ve read my mind to find out. Xander definitely knows me personally but how though? I’ve been going over the matter with Penelope who is kinda like my bestie now. I feel so normal and natural around her. She told me it would be selfish if I was to take neither of them as my mate because an alpha without a luna is like a letter with no address, a room without a door, a boat without a sail, or a c

    Aaron’s P.O.V8 months ago…“Aaron, why isn’t Sierra waking up?”Courtney’s eyes were tearing, she felt it. I know what she was feeling. She wanted warmth, she was cold. She was seeking my eyes for comfort and for some reason she was seeing it.I placed my hand n her head and patted her head gently. I didn’t know what to tell her. I couldn’t tell her Sierra will wake up, the odds are, she won’t. I couldn’t damage her harder. I could only delude her and give her false hope.“Don’t cry.”She didn’t stop. It’s been like this every day for the past four months. At school, she can’t help but cry, she

    “Okay, try letting her take over,” Xavier said as he stood in front of me.“But how do I do that?” I said anxiously and he sighed then knelt on the grass in front of me.He held both of my hands in his and looked me in the eye.“Calm down first and talk to her. Ask her.” He said and I closed my eyes as I took deep breaths.“Domino, would you please transform me?”“Take off your clothes first, I don’t wanna rip em and have you move around butt naked.”I snapped my eyes open and looked at Xavier with pink hints on my cheeks.“She said I have to strip, first,” I murmured and he raised his eyebrows.“Right, I’ll leave you to it then. Do you want me to transform too?” he asked as he stood up and dusted off his knees. “Yeah, I’d like that,” I said and he nodded and walked into the forest.I stripped and felt my bones break and rebuild themselves. When I opened my eyes, I was on four feet. I looked at the ground and pranced around.“Aruuuuu.” Domino howled. She was now mostly in control. I l

    “Xavier…”His lips crushed into mine and I couldn’t help but respond. My arms rested on his shoulder and the other on his cheek as our lips danced together. I felt my body get a burst of energy and hunger growing inside me.He pulled me closer and lifted me to sit on his lap. We continued kissing and his hands held the small of my back and played with the hem of my shirt until they were on my skin. Wherever he touched felt like kisses of pleasure, flames of fire that I wanted to devour me.I pulled away and looked into his eyes. He wanted to kiss me again but I felt guilty for doing this.“Sorry.” He said as he placed his hand over his mouth and looked to the side then let out a sigh. His hand that was on my waist let go and rested on his thigh.“I messed up.” He said and I combed his hair back using my fingers which made him look at me with a slight shock on his face.“I love you too, Xavier,” I said and smiled softly. I felt like I needed to do this. I needed to tell him this for qu

    I was currently at home in the living room scrolling through the tv for random channels. The thing is that I barely watch tv and when I do, I get tired of it very fast. Maybe I just haven’t found a show to like. Courtney and her mom are currently reading a book together which is adorable. Dad is taking a nap in his room. It’s 3 pm and everyone has something to do except for me. I woke up early today, finished a significant portion of my course work and got tired of it. To knock me out of my train of pointless thoughts, I heard a knock on the door. I immediately stood up and got a bit shocked when I saw those bright blue eyes behind the door. I didn’t know what to say. I walked outside into the hallway and closed the door behind me “Greet bitch.” My wolf said. “Good afternoon.” I kept my eyes on his, not like I had the energy to look away. My body was using all my energy to keep me on my feet right now. “Good afternoon,” he replied and I cleared my throat and looked away from h

    Xavier’s P.O.V“OK, EVERYONE, GET IN POSITION. NEWBIES, TO THE LEFT.” The coach announced and blew a whistle with a ball tucked under his armpit as he pointed to the side of the court. I followed the instructions along with everyone who came in for tryouts. I’ve been practicing basketball for a while now along with Walter and a few other pack officials with little experience in the sport.I could say, it wasn’t my expertise or majorly- I had an unfair advantage here compared to the other men. I was faster, stronger, and far more agile so even if I don’t put in much effort, I can do significantly well.The coach was calling one by to showcase what they could do against the captain of the team.He was tall, looked like he had enough sense to be considered top-tier, and seemed faster and more agile than the average human. The goal set to qualify the newbies for the sport was simply to last 2 minutes on the court without letting the ball get bounced off them.I watched from the bleachers

    -Anonymous For 24 years I have been waiting to be out of the cages of duty and back in the courts of my pack. Luckily, I found a brain wave from a female werewolf. She seemed to know something about Xavier since her scent had a tinge of his scent. She was dreaming and I see no other way it was time to apply my power to enter dreams and read minds. I entered her dream and it looked like nothing less than depression and anxiety, the scent gave it away as well. It was black everywhere not even a single speck of light except the one over her. I walked to her and she seemed to already notice my presence. She was in tears, this looks exactly like heartbreak at its worst. Did Xavier reject her? "Young girl, do you know where my son is?" I asked her and she glanced at me and shook her head meaning no. I let out a small grunt in disapproval. "I was almost certain that you were his mate," I said that while squatting in front of her studying me in her current sitting position on the floor a

I could sense that she wanted to ask for something but she was shy. I could also guess that what she wanted was for me to spill some tea about Dom.

    There was a silhouette of someone who seemed to be in armor standing still. We couldn’t see his face or any detail, we could only see the light surrounding him exposing the silver of his armor. We all stopped in our tracks uncertain of what to do next. He seemed to be observing all of us. He was scentless. There wasn’t much I was getting from him. Suddenly my dad stood upright and his eyes opened wide in shock. “RUN! EVERYBODY RUN!” he shouted and my mom was grabbing my hand to go find safety as my dad stayed in a fighting stance. Xavier and Xander didn’t retreat either. “WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?” Xavier shouted and my dad swallowed deeply. I could smell the anger morph into a pure rage in his scent. “Mom, who is that?” “Shhh,” she silenced me by covering my mouth and I could smell the fear in her voice. She must know this person or thing and she must be afraid of it for a grave reason. I decided to sit still. Xavier The man in armor lunged at us as he drew a long sword out of its

    SierraDad lunged at Xander with a fist and he dodged it but dad moved his fist downward and punched him in the face. From then on, I didn’t see much, it was like a blur.“Dad, stop!”I screamed but they didn’t hear me. I wanted to pull them apart but my mom held me. “No, stop! Dad, that’s my mate!” I screamed and my dad stopped. His eyes looked deep into mine with emotions I couldn’t read, his hand fisted around Xander's neck and blood down his nose. Xander’s fist landed on his jaw and he glared at him then knocked the daylights out of him.I rushed to his side and frantically tapped him trying to make sure he wasn’t dead. I checked his pulse and he was still alive. I sighed in relief and glared at dad. He shrugged with a guil

    We sat down and my parents first gave each other a look and nodded before mom decided to talk. "You see Sierra, we had something urgent to do. We are what you may call werewolves too that's why it looks like we haven't aged a day and we are rogues." she first paused and I nodded.“I see but then…why didn’t you tell me? And what does that have to do with your plane crush and your gravestone, your dead bodies..." I said with a bit of anger in my voice and dad spoke. "Sierra, let’s explain this as simply as possible," he said in a calming tone and I looked to the floor and then back up to them holding myself down.“A long time ago, your mother and I, were King and Queen of a pack.”“About how long ago?” I asked as I swallowed the saliva in my throat.
