Chapter 4 - A New Life

As the days turned into weeks and the weeks became months, time seemed to slip away in a hazy reverie.

Over the course of time, an incredible bond had formed between Zane and me; he truly was an outstanding guy. Being in his presence made me feel so at ease, my heart trembled with excitement each moment he arrived back home.

His house was indeed big. It stood three stories tall and boasted fourteen splendid rooms, each equipped with a luxurious private en-suite.

Our bedrooms were on the second floor. On the first floor, there was a generously sized kitchen space outfitted with state-of-the-art utensils and equipment to prepare all kinds of lavish meals. In addition, there was a spacious dining section capable of accommodating numerous guests at once. Further down on the same floor, an area existed that could function as either an office or conference zone. Moreover, there was also a grand living area on that floor.

To the already existing storage spaces within the house, there was also a spare closet and a laundry room. Two skilled maids were hired three times per week to clean the house and do laundry.

Zane adamantly prohibited me from performing any household chores, joking that it would spoil my delicate hands and insinuating that I was trying to steal the maids' jobs. Frankly, I was surprised when we arrived here. When he mentioned in the woods that his house could easily accommodate both of us, I didn't anticipate it being this spacious.

At first, living in the house with a stranger was awkward and required some getting used to. But Zane's amiable personality and natural openness made it effortless for me to feel completely at home. Quite frankly, he made me feel so homey as if we had been acquainted for years. This bond continued to grow steadily day by day; every moment spent together solidified our unspoken understanding even further. He loved all the dishes I prepared for him; after dinner, not a single scrap remained on his plate. It was just as clean as when it came out of the dishwasher. Every day, he came home on time and recently had started planting kisses on my neck as soon as he entered the threshold.

After dinner, we usually settled down before the television in the living room to watch the world news.

On any other weekend, he would pamper me with dinner at some of the most upscale restaurants in town. And sure enough, I couldn't help but notice many envious stares shot towards me. I used to sleep three rooms away from him, but I moved last week to the room right next to his. As the day broke each morning, the sound of running water in his bathroom woke me up. Then I jumped out of bed, quickly washed my face, and ran downstairs to make him breakfast.

Without a doubt, Zane was drop-dead gorgeous.

If the pain of Elyon's betrayal weren't so persistent, I would certainly have tried to hit on him. However, we were only best friends. But this did not prevent Zane from demonstrating his affection towards me whenever he could. And then again, every evening, I looked forward to our special moment in front of the television. There, I stretched out with my head on his lap while Zane enveloped me tightly with his strong arms. It felt absolutely wonderful!

On one particular occasion, I fell asleep in that blissful position to discover the next day that I was still nestled cozily in his arms on the couch. Since then, I had consciously made efforts to pretend to sleep several times just so we could spend more time entwined together.

"Becca, want to go to the beach today? I heard there might be a party taking place down by the ocean, and I thought it could make for an exciting day filled with sun and fun."

Zane's masculine voice broke through my reverie with an invitation that immediately piqued my interest. It sent shivers of excitement down my spine as I eagerly considered his proposition because nothing sounded more enticing than spending time at leisure on sandy shores with this handsome hunk.

"Sure. Bikini or full?" I inquired playfully with the intent to capture his attention.

Last time, he was furious when I showed up in a tiny bikini at his friend’s pool party. Looking back now, I must admit that those pieces of fabric were quite alluring, but gosh, he really overreacted. From then on, I took his feelings into account and always asked for his opinion on my clothing choices.

"Always full!" he groaned under his breath.

Really, everyone on every beach was wearing the bare minimum of clothing. Did I really have to go out of line?! I packed my swimsuit anyway; it didn't show much cleavage, but my curves came out perfectly. This particular piece had been personally hand-picked for me by Zane during our recent shopping trip, so he had little to complain about now.

Yes, after arriving here with nothing but the clothes on my body, Zane made sure my wardrobe was quite stocked.

Despite any objections I had about his excessive generosity towards me, he proceeded passionately to spend thousands of dollars on outfits and footwear for me. "Whom am I going to spend all that money on, then? Please, let me do this, Becca," he almost begged me. So, I took advantage of his generosity and allowed myself to revel in our decadent shopping sprees. He paid with his gleaming platinum credit card, an unmistakable symbol of wealth that confirmed my suspicions about him not being remotely poor or average in any way imaginable.

I planned to talk to him about his spending on me tonight.

I really wanted to know more about him. Earlier, I did not dare to ask him private questions for fear of prying too much into his affairs, but as our bond blossomed over time, I felt emboldened to speak a little more freely with him.

Hand in hand, we strolled onto the beach.

 Zane carried the picnic basket that we had brought with us. We signed up for an epic game of beach volleyball and were divided into opposing teams, eagerly ready to compete against each other. Before long, the competition started and both sides played their hardest. Incredibly enough, it wasn't until we reached the final match that we unexpectedly faced each other!

"Zane, how about we make a bet? If my team wins today's game, you'll cook and do the dishes."

A mischievous grin appeared on his face. "And if my team wins?"

I bit my lower lip and furrowed my eyebrows as I carefully considered the options available to me. "Anything you want."

As soon as those words left my mouth, loud whistles were heard all around us.

“Deal.”

Sure enough, his team won the game! Guess a single werewolf doesn't make or break a game. With a noticeable swagger in his gait, he walked up to me, sporting a smirk on his face.

"Pay up, beautiful lady."

It was with a profound sense of loathing that I admitted my defeat. Zane deftly took my chin between two fingers and turned my face toward him. Before I could think what he was up to, he had captured my lips within the warm confines of his own. The sudden cascade of sensation coursing through me like wildfire made me shudder uncontrollably; instinctively, I opened my lips for him.

We got lost in a fiery kiss. Only when we heard the whistles and cheers around us again did we pull away.

I had given my all to Zane's longing, and right there and then, I realized that our relationship wasn't as innocent as I always thought...

    As soon as we arrived home, I immediately addressed the matter regarding that kiss. The public display of affection would eventually continue to haunt us. Several snapshots had been captured, and who knew where they would all end up?"Zane, hmm. I must say that the kiss was really deep and it has caused me to question where our relationship stands at present. Until now, I believed us to be in a phase of platonic friendship, nothing more than close friends. But that kiss…hmm."He closed the distance between us, took me tenderly in his arms, and carefully lifted my face with one hand. As we gazed into each other's eyes, his face drew nearer to mine until our lips were mere inches apart. The intensity of the moment was palpable as he maintained unbroken eye contact with me while positioning himself in such a way that I could feel his breath on my skin."I am unsure whether you are ready for this yet, but I cannot keep it to myself any longer. Becca, I want you to know how important and s

    Ever since that day, our life had felt like a fragile dream that I feared could shatter at any moment.Almost forgotten was Elyon as I basked in my utter happiness. Zane was so natural with me, his kisses were many and his adoring gaze upon me was enough to make me feel treasured. Slowly, but surely, I began to regain the confidence that Elyon had stripped away from me through his humiliation.When we hit the hay at night, our extended talks persisted until one of us grew weary and dozed off. We had so much in common, our late night talks never seemed to end. Today I cooked Zane's favorite dish: sweet and sour sea fish with Tyap Soy mix Broccoli and Shrimp, a Chinese recipe. Whenever we ate out, this was his go-to meal, guaranteed to leave an empty plate every time.Tonight, I intended to bring up a delicate topic; I really needed a job to earn my own income. We'd had this discussion before and Zane wiped this off the table in no time. He insisted that with his platinum card, I could

    I was not quite sure which words to use in order to convey this sensation accurately.Maybe it was what we werewolves known as the pull.But I found myself being drawn to Zane as if I were a bee captivated by honey, unable to resist his charms. This sexual attraction between us was undeniable, always on the surface. And words had turned me on, I’m on fire now.His eyes were burning on me, calling, enticing with a gentle touch of promise. The melancholic weight that had been bearing down on me lifted as I began to feel a newfound warmth emanating from my stomach. This was totally new for me.Slowly, I got up, still staring at Zane. Then I knelt down in front of him, positioning myself between his long legs.As my hand reached behind his head, I drew him in for a wet kiss. He remained passive, granting me full control over the moment. Maybe he was letting me think about what it is that I truly wanted from him. Sensually, my tongue traced his lips, seeking entry.Still passive, he contin

    Hesitantly, I walked over to Elyon's bed.He had a bandage wrapped around his head, and ropes tied around his arms and legs. As my scent reached him, he gradually opened his eyes."Becca!" he murmured with a tone of disbelief mixed in. "Come closer, my love."I leaned down to him and fixed my gaze upon the eyes that had misled me for years. My heart constricted; there was no way I would permit him to harm me once more."Not a day has gone by without my guilt gnawing at me. Forgive me, my love. I wish I could have done it differently, but I had to prioritize the interests of our pack."A sharp pain ripped through my heart and I gasped for breath. So not only did he sacrifice our love for a mate, but also for the sake of securing a position that was rightfully his all along. As the Alpha's sole heir, it was his birthright to gain the seat, regardless of who he chose as Luna. That was nice to know how much I was worth to him, yeah!"It doesn't matter anymore, Elyon," I told him, trying t

    After meeting Elyon, the subsequent weeks were difficult and demanding for me.With a shattered soul, I had retreated into myself and spent most of my days in my bedroom. There, I would wallow in feelings of self-doubt and misery which consumed me entirely. This inner turmoil took its toll on my physical health; losing weight due to loss of appetite coupled with dehydration left me looking skinny.In the meantime, I had moved out of Zane's bedroom and settled back into my former living quarters that were three doors down. Even our evenings watching television, which I had always looked forward to, I skipped in order to spend more time pondering in my own space. Zane made multiple attempts at lifting my mood and alleviating any burdensome emotions but to no avail.Recently, Krystal informed me that Elyon had been moved from the hospital in Human Town to the pack's facilities after three days.A week later, he had made quite an impressive recovery but opted to take it easy, not only to

    It appeared as though I had been given an opportunity for a new beginning in my life.Zane made a considerable effort to keep me from falling into despair yet again. He even went as far as taking an entire week off from his responsibilities to be with me. During that time, we shared many valuable moments together visiting all of my favorite spots and having delightful experiences.And it truly was effective. It has proven to be quite favorable in lifting my spirits and boosting my morale.Our trips to the beach, in particular, were a great success. The feeling of refreshing waves kissing my toes made me feel alive. I especially enjoyed playing both volleyball and water polo on its picturesque sands. We never had trouble finding sports players, whether it was by sheer luck or actively searching for companions among fellow sunbathers, we always managed to find ourselves in good company at this heavenly destination.When it came to socializing skills, Zane had his dream team enlisted wit

    Can anyone please explain why all the secretaries in this country seem to have a crush on their CEOs?"It was like an indelible virus that rages through all offices. Climbing the social ladder with spread legs seems to be a common modus operandi.The moment Zane and I entered his office, I perceived the hostile stare that she aimed at me.The low cut of her dress, exposing a generous amount of her boobs, combined with the tight fit that artfully accentuates every curve along the length and breadth of her voluptuous body, speaks volumes. Not to mention that gaudy makeup with fiery red lips that promise nothing less than paradise itself.With Zane around, she tried to hide her feelings towards me but her insincerity was clear. Believe me, I could smell fakers a mile away, Luna Denise has definitely taught me a valuable lesson in that department. "Becca, I would like you to meet my secretary, Margey.

    After weeks of silence, my wolf Era finally decided to make a comeback.I heard her sigh and wince sadly. After the heartache of Elyon, she had withdrawn to the back of my mind. Countless times I attempted to reach out to her, but it was in vain as she refused to talk with me. Era also felt deceived by Elyon's wolf, who never bothered to give a clue about the Alpha family's true motives.‘Becca, pay close attention now. The man that just entered is going to be important for us in the future. There is a particular scent around him, I don’t know whether it is good or bad. Take no chances and present your best side, please’, she stressed. I tried to ask her for an explanation but the current circumstances required my full attention.Zane rose from the couch and tugged me along to confront the guest. The man resembled an older, yet still fit version of Zane with a striking mature look similar to that of a Hollywood A-lister, I think he gave off Clint Eastwood vibes. Then I promptly recogn

    Somewhere in the South...A striking couple walked hand in hand across the sandy beach towards the sea, carrying their surfboard under their arms.The woman looked up adoringly at the man, who gazed back at her with love. She had white-blonde hair, beautiful green eyes, and her tanned skin revealed that she spent a lot of time in the sun. Her stomach was slightly swollen, indicating she was a few months pregnant.The man was muscular with raven-black hair slicked back. A tattoo ran from his back over his shoulder to halfway down his chest. His facial features were sharply defined, and he exuded a high degree of authority, as expected of an Alpha, a man with heavy responsibilities.They were engrossed in conversation, only eyeing each other. The woman clearly enjoyed the man's full attention while he reserved all his attention for her. When they reached the shoreline, they let go of each other, smashed their board onto the waves, and skillfully waltzed over the sea.Neither of them not

    As she waited for an answer, Becca paced the room, her mind racing.She couldn't let Elyon win. She had to find a way to break the bond, to protect her son and her future with Zane.Finally, her phone buzzed, and she quickly read the message from Jonas."Don't worry, we have a plan. Just go with him."Relief washed over her. She wasn't alone in this. She had allies, people who cared about her. She had to believe they could find a way out of this mess.Becca took a deep breath, her resolve hardening. She would find a way to break the bond and live on her own terms.She entered the walk-in closet and noticed it was full of clothes. As she inspected everything, she saw not only formal evening wear but also casual pieces, all designer and expensive. Elyon had prepared well for her arrival; he was sure he would have her back in the pack. Becca wondered if he had realized they were mates long before she had. She had been so focused on her baby and getting back to Zane that she had hardly no

    Becca's heart pounded in her chest, fear and anger swirling inside her.She glanced around, searching for an ally among the high-ranking wolves who had followed them. But their expressions were a mix of confusion and awe, offering no support. They were bound to their oath to serve their Alpha and be submissive."I won't let you dictate my life," Becca declared, her voice growing stronger. "I'll find a way to break this bond. I'll fight you every step of the way."Elyon chuckled, the sound sending chills down her spine. "You can try, Becca, but you'll only make things worse for yourself. Accept it, and we can be happy together."Becca's resolve hardened. She knew she couldn't let Elyon win. She had to think of Zane, of their son; there must be a way out.“I, Becca Humphreys, daughter of the Head Warriors Kendall and Krystal, reject Alpha Elyon Domerkens as my mate and wish to have nothing more to do with him after today,” she spoke out with hatred while glaring at Elyon.To her dismay,

    Becca gazed at Elyon in horror."No!" she screamed, extending her hand to maintain distance as Elyon began approaching her.She once more detected that intoxicated sandalwood scent attempting to overwhelm her senses, confirming Elyon as truly being her second chance mate. With determination, Becca resisted the pull of the mate bond trying to snap into place and draw her towards him.Fortunately, Era, her wolf, also rejected Elyon, even though she acknowledged him as their fated.‘Becca,’ Era urged. ‘We must take action. We cannot let Elyon claim us under any circumstances. Stop him from marking you, otherwise we are doomed.’However, as their eyes locked and Elyon advanced toward her, the pull intensified. Era and Becca were on the brink of losing the struggle. The Alpha wolf was far more powerful than either of them. Being without rank rendered them no match for Elyon whatsoever.The entire court room rose to their feet in complete astonishment. No one had anticipated this outcome,

    For the umpteenth time, Zane checked the clock.The hands kept moving forward, the day progressing, but he still hadn't heard anything from Becca. His impatience grew, as did his concern.He went online to check the arrival times of flights from Canada. The last flight of the day was scheduled to land at ten that evening. He was counting on Becca to call him before she boarded; she knew he was waiting for her.To distract himself, he called his secretary, Margey, to bring urgent files to his home. Spending a few hours with his mind elsewhere would make the stress building up inside him more bearable."Sorry, Zane, but Klevin has already cleared all the backlogs," Margey explained. "It seems like you both are under a lot of stress. Is something going on with the family? Is it about Becca, your girlfriend?"The venom in Margey's voice didn't escape Zane. He knew that the women didn't get along, but at that moment, he couldn't tolerate any negativity towards his wife. Margey had crossed

    In New York, Zane held his son affectionately against his chest.He breathed in the sweet baby scent, never getting enough of it. He couldn't believe that his son was finally there with him, making him tangibly a father. Klevin Jr.'s joyful laughter filled the room as he softly whispered tender words, expressing how honored and grateful he felt to have him in his life."Don't worry, my little boy," he said gently as he kissed Klevin Jr. on the forehead. "When your mother returns, we'll take long trips on the yacht, and I'll teach you how to swim in the open sea. Then at night, we'll have dinner together on deck. I promise it'll be wonderful."Then his eyes spotted a piece of paper peeking out from beneath the baby cloth. He loosened the diaper and removed it. Inside was a note from Klevin’s grandparents, which Zane suspected they had slipped in during their time with him on the plane. He unfolded it with care and began to read.'Our dearest grandson, we don't know if we'll have the ch

    The following day, the session began early.With nerves of steel, Becca descended the stairs to the spacious hall where the hearing was about to take place. Upon reaching the main floor, she was surprised to find her parents waiting there."Mom! Dad! You're here too!" she exclaimed, throwing herself into her parents' embrace. The tears were impossible to hold back."Becca, my dear child. We've been so worried about you," her mother said, tears streaming down her cheeks. "You were suddenly gone from Moon Shine and when we searched for you on the island, there was no sign of you." Her father grew emotional as well."Are you okay, sweetheart? We were really worried." Kendall embraced his daughter and gently stroked her hair."Did you see my son, Dad?" Becca asked her parents with excitement. "Joe mentioned that he was with you on the plane. Did he behave well?"Kendall and Krystal gazed at her with pride. Their instincts were right when she identified the little pup."Yes, he's been with

    Clea understood that her actions had not gone as planned and resulted in an unexpected outcome.Her mate opposed her, and she could see only hatred in his eyes. The same person who had shared such a wonderful night with her was now repulsed by an analysis she'd made that he didn't agree with. Despite being questioned by Jerney and Becca, she remained convinced that she had done the right thing.Letting out a sigh, she stepped out of the packhouse to stroll through the expansive garden. To its west stood several towering green species, while exotic flowers decorated the other side. The evening brought with it a warm breeze that gently stirred her hair.Engrossed in her thoughts, she wandered further into the field full of flowers until a voice broke through the silence behind her. "Beautiful lady, where are you heading so late at night?" With a racing heart, she swiftly turned around and scanned the area with wide eyes but found no one there.'Perhaps I'm imagining it.

    "So, it was you the whole time!"Startled, Clea spun around and her expression twisted in horror upon seeing the person standing there — her mate, Alpha King Jerney!With his arms crossed and a look of disdain in his eyes, he stared directly at her."You have deceived not only Becca but also me and the entire Council. I relied on you, and if you weren't prepared to cooperate, why didn't you speak up? It's not your place to decide whom Becca shares her life with; she has made her choice. If you're uncomfortable with that decision, you're under no obligation to assist. But why betray her trust? Your actions are unacceptable! I'll never be able to trust you again."Deeply disappointed, Alpha King Jerney gazed at his mate who once brought him immense joy. Now he saw a darker side of her that he didn't like at all, she was a traitor."Jerney, please let me explain. I truly had good intentions.
