LENA. “I didn't kiss him! I didn't kiss him!” I shouted, moving closer. I placed one hand on the back of Alexander. His body was stiff like a rock. He wrapped both of his hands around Isaac’s shirt, his fingers digging into the rim, ripping the fabric of the vintage shirt. Isaac could only winc angrily, he was nothing compared to Alexander who had Beta powers. When Alexander punched him again, his lower lips burst and blood streamed down his jaw; staining his vintage shirt. It was scary and I gasped, bringing my palm to cover my mouth. I was in shock seeing how Alexander punched Isaac because he thought he had kissed me. Did he care? Didn't he ssy he was only with me because he pitied me? “Stop!” I grabbed his shirt from behind and tried pulling him back. I didn't know what part of my deluded mind thought that I could pull him back from Isaac. “Please, let him go!” I pleaded my voice on a high pitch. He seemed to hear me because I saw his hands gently soften on Isaac until they w

LENA. Isaac sat in the back of the car while Alexander drove the car. We had been silent, no one saying a word to the other. Isaac's lip was busted and it would take a while for him to heal. In order not to arouse any suspicions, we decided to take him to Alexander’s house for home treatment and rest. “So you two are mated to each other?” Isaac asked breaking the silence between us all. I glanced at Alexander who had his face straight on the road. Didn't he want to answer? I couldn't answer the question without him, although Isaac heard all that we said. “Oh, now you don't want to answer?” Isaac hissed. “Maybe I should call my dad and tell him all about it.” He adjusted, trying to pick up his phone from his back pocket. Alexander glanced over his shoulder, sighed, and then told him to, Stop! “Yeah, she is my mate. You can't let anyone know about it!” He glared at him from the rearview mirror. His response only made my heart tug painfully. I didn't know why. Even though I knew t

ALEXANDER. “Don’t ask,” I said, staring into her hazel eyes.“Don’t ask me, please.” I exhaled. I did not want to lie to her. No, I was just starting to build this thing we have. And I needed her to trust me. Yet, I couldn't tell her the reason I was with her stepmother. This was the question she wanted to ask me, I was certain. I knew that I wouldn't be able to give her the answer she craved. The things she desired, I wouldn't be able to do them. Perhaps I was starting to be selfish, wanting to keep her. “Why?” She asked. I did not answer. I lifted myself up, toward her, and wrapped one hand around her waist. I grabbed her face with the other hand, pulling her face to mine. She exhaled, shutting her eyes as she surrendered to me. An act I was grateful for. I jammed my lips with her, relief flooding me as her delicate lips moved over mine. They were so soft, and sweet. Ecstasy was an understatement for the feeling of her lips in my mouth. She raised her hand and her fingers sl

ALEXANDER. I went to her room to check on her. I held my breath as I grabbed the doorknob and gently twisted it. My heart pounded in my chest as I began to push the door back, afraid of what I might find. Gently, I stepped in, moving further as I pushed the door back. However, I found her in a sleeping position on the bed. It was the same way I left her this morning. I made sure to come and check on her every morning and night before going back to the main house. She was fast asleep, her breathing weak. I heaved a sigh of relief. I just knew that there was no way my mom would be the one attacking Isaac. I walked closer to make sure that she was okay before leaving her room. Shutting the door behind me, I saw Lena backing the door with her hands folded over her chest. Then she turned around after I shut the door. “Is it her?” She asked and I shook my head. “You are certain?” She asked again, her eyes soft and unsure whether to believe me. “Yes, there is no way she would have re

LENA. I didn't have any choice but to tell him. He froze, staring at me for some seconds. He ran his hand in his hair and then placed one hand on his waist. “Your dad wants me dead?” He asked “Because you took the beta position and his wife. You can't come in here.” I shook my head. He sighed, running one hand in his hair again. “I don't even like her. I don't want the position either. I just…” He sighed. “If I stop, will it make him happy? Will you come with me if I put an end to all these?” He asked.Put an end to what?I wondered what he was talking about. “Look, your hand is bleeding. He hurt you that much, right? I want to take you away from here, Lena. I don't care about anything anymore right now, let's leave together.” I hid my wrist behind my body, just staring at Alexander as he talked. Dad had thrown the lamp at me because I came late and this was the reason I started to bleed. “What are you talking about, Alexander? What are you leaving behind?” I asked. He starte

LENA. The next morning, I woke up with so much joy. I was happy that I would finally be with Alexander for the rest of my life. By five in the morning, I was done attending to my dad. I paid extra attention as this was going to be the last time I would be taking care of him. He was awake by the time I was done cooking. I sat in front of him and placed the food on his lap. He didn't say a word to me even as I watched him. “Dad?” I called. He did not respond. He gently took some of the toasted eggs into his mouth. It was as if I wasn't in the room with him. He had his eyes on the plate, a sad expression etched on his face. Disdain spreading in both of his eyes. “Dad, I want to hug you.” I let out. I wanted nothing more than to wrap my hands around him as this might be the last time I would see him. I saw his hands pause before he raised his head and looked at me. He stared at me, the anger in his eyes ever strong. They showed me how much he hated me and blamed me for the things th

LENA. He didn't come. I didn't go home. I waited until it was dusk when I knew he wasn't ever going to come for me. Yeah, the dusk two days later when I finally realized that he wasn't going to come. Then I realized that Dad was right. I was bad luck and no one would spend their life with me. The realization hit me like the cold in winter, I wasn't prepared for it. So now I just stare into space, taking it all in. I remembered what my father said to me, the words he stated, and how he did. The realness in his eyes and I realized that he was right. He had always been right. I was bad luck and that was what I had always been. Mom died because of me and he lost his legs because of me. My mate was with his new wife he married. Everything was somehow connected to me. “You weren't the one that ran that night, it was Annabelle. You only took the blame for her because you didn't want her to get in trouble. Don't blame yourself for the accident, it wasn't you he went out to loo

LENA. “You were right,” I said shamefully getting back in my dad’s room. I had never been humiliated in my life, humbled, and felt like nothing as much as I did that day. My dad laughed and reminded me that I was bad luck. Alexander realized that sooner and ran. He said that I was going to remain by his side forever and take care of him until the day that I did. He mocked me. He laughed and his laughter resonated within me. It hurt so much that it felt like I was going to die. Yet, I did not exchange words with him. I went back to my room and smiled gently yet tears slid down both sides of my eyes. I thought that I was never going to come into this room again. The heavens must have laughed at me when I thought that my next room was going to be the one we would share in our new apartment. I was dumb to have really thought that we were going to be together. Ha ha. I wiped my tears and walked over to the bathroom where I had a relaxing bath. I stayed in the shower for hours, allowin

ALEXANDER. “Thunk!” “Thunk!” “Thunk!” I could still hear the sound of the needle forced into my skin, and the liquid spreading through my body. I could feel the hands of the matron I had trusted around me as she released the entire thing into me. Just before my eyes completely closed up. Just like that, it began. Day after day, she came and injected me with venoms that stung. Day after day, I began to lose my senses. My memories began to jam with each other. I saw faces and memories I wasn't sure belonged to me. Voices and thoughts that weren't mine. “But why do we keep injecting him?” One of them, she. Tina. I wasn't sure, my memory was quite hazy had asked. “To jumble his memory, to make him do as we say. He is going to be Alpha and he will be under my control.” The older woman sat next to me, her fingers crawled over my skin. I couldn't quite place her voice. It sounded familiar, like I knew her but then I didn't. I couldn't recollect her face. Her memory was there, in m

LENA“And who are you?” I raised a brow at the young man who boarded the plane. He wore a Barcelona jersey and dirty, crazed blue jeans. He looked ridiculous—mostly because he hadn’t even bothered to comb his hair. It was wild and all over the place.Still… he was handsome.Sharp jawline. Tall. Muscles filling out the jersey.But I was irritated. Why was he dressed like that? And more importantly—why was he on this plane? It was a private jet the Black Moon Pack arranged for me. They didn’t want anyone knowing their Alpha was receiving therapy.I looked up from my tablet, clearly demanding an answer.He glanced over his shoulder like there might be someone else I was talking to.“Oh, Dr. Lena, what they say about you is true,” he said with a smile.I raised a brow, unimpressed.“Well, I’m Dr. Austin. I’m your partner!” he added.My eyes widened. Dr. Austin? The director? The expert in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy—known for handling extreme cases in the most unique ways?Why was he dre

LENA. SEVEN YEARS LATER. “A transfer letter?” I asked, dropping the letter in front of my boss, Rodrigo. Doctor Rodrigo was the name I loved to call him. “Yes.” He sighed. “There is a critical patient I want you to take.” I chuckled. “But you couldn't inform me prior? You just want to send me back to the west pack, why? I don't want to go there.” It had been six years. Six years I had avoided that place that traumatized me. Now, I was leaving fine. I was now a doctor, a successful one. Although I couldn't be an oncologist like I wanted to be, I seemed to find peace in speaking with people and healing them with my knowledge. I have had countless cancer patients come in here. I have had many patients who needed me after their boobs were cut off. I could relate to them hence it was easy for me. Now I have a Bachelor’s in Psychology. I was also a doctor of psychology which earned me the title Dr. As well as a licensed professional counselor (LPC) All of these in six years. Jenna

LENA. The hospital was extremely nice. I had never been in a private hospital my entire life with private nurses. Daniel said they were perks of the contract which absolutely sat right with me. Being with a father who hated me and a stepmother who hated to see me, I never got the luxury of being treated in a hospital. All the times I had been sick, I got drugs from the store. Nurse Giana was my private nurse, she was extremely nice and she told me to settle in while my test result came in. I rubbed my belly, hoping I would be pregnant. I had to be pregnant so I could continue to enjoy these perks. As much as it pained me that I had to leave Alexander, I couldn't let go of this opportunity. Here I was being pampered like a celebrity when I had gone through scorn my entire life. This was it, the moment that I so desperately prayed for all these past years. Jenna walked in after Nurse Giana left. Jenna had a look of panic on her face as she stepped in. Yet, she looked extremely gorg

ALEXANDER. Not long Daniel texted me, she fainted. I was working with the matron to know what really happened to her mother. “If you find anything, tell me,” I said. With this, I ran out of her office and got to my car as soon as soon as possible. What could have happened? Why did she faint? These were the questions that I had in my head throughout the entire drive. My head was calculating. Perhaps she felt dizzy because of the pregnancy? She really could be pregnant. She could be carrying my child. The thought of it alone made me so excited.And I was super happy to get to the hospital.Just when I was about arriving at the hospital, the matron sent a message to me. “Alex, it is truly connected to your mom and wife. You have to come over right now!” I read the text and somehow I was not shocked. My mother and Tina had already done so much. It was my fault for believing every words that came out of my mom in the first place. I forgot that even blood related people could still

LENA. It had been three weeks since I and the stranger had intercourse. Three weeks but I haven't felt anything. Daniel walked into my room and dropped some books for me to read for my upcoming exam. I haven't been speaking to him since the incident between us. “Thank you, “ I whispered. “Uhm…” He paused at the doorpost, his eyes were on me when I raised my head. “Have… do you feel anything recently?” He asked. I had also been watching myself lately but then I had felt nothing. Werewolf pregnancy was faster than humans and even humans should feel pregnancy symptoms at two weeks. “No,” I said. “Lena, you can't be tricky with this. You have to tell me everything.” His words were more like a warning. I said nothing.Did he think I would hide the fact that I am pregnant? “I used the pregnancy strip yesterday, it showed negative. I am not pregnant, yet,” I said reading through the lines of the medical textbook. Daniel nodded before he left. I sighed. I wonder why I haven't gotte

ALEXANDER. Lena had to be the one giving me the ability to wake up every day. The thought of she carrying my baby in her belly gave me so much strength to go ahead with my life. To find the truth and make everything right. The other day, I had seen her at the library, sitting by the window, lost in a book. She always looked the most peaceful when she was reading. There was something about the way she tucked her hair behind her ear, the way her lips moved slightly as she read, completely absorbed in the world of words.I had wanted to go to her. To sit beside her, to hear her voice again. To touch her. To feel the warmth I had been missing. To tell her she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seenBut I didn’t. I couldn't. We needed this space to sort things out. Also because this—this life she was building—was what I had always wanted for her. A life where she was free, where she had friends, where she wasn’t bound to me and the chaos that came with our families. I would do them

LENAI shut the door to my room behind me, my heart heavy with emotions I couldn’t quite name. Daniel’s anger still lingered in the air, suffocating me even though he was nowhere near. What was he hiding? His reaction had been so extreme, so defensive. Why would he get that angry over me checking his laptop? The more I thought about it, the more unsettled I became. What was so big about the stranger that he didn't want me to know? I sighed and moved over to my window seat, the place where I often curled up with my books. It overlooked a small garden that belonged to the neighbors. The roses there were blooming, their soft pink petals swaying gently in the breeze. Usually, the sight calmed me, but today, my heart wouldn’t stop racing. I tried to get lost in the pages of my medical textbook, but the words blurred together. No matter how hard I tried to focus, my mind kept drifting.Daniel’s behavior was odd, but what was more confusing was the stranger. His letter had left an impressio

LENA. The warm water cascaded down my body, washing away the remnants of sleep and the soreness that lingered from the night before. As I stood under the spray, I let my mind wander. The stranger’s words from the letter replayed in my head, over and over again.“My future oncologist…”Why did that line make my chest feel tight? It was ridiculous. I shouldn’t be thinking about him like this — whoever he was. The only thing that mattered was the deal we made and what I stood to gain from it. Still, the way he had written those words… as if he saw something in me that even I struggled to believe.I shook my head, pushing the thoughts aside. No use getting caught up in fantasies. I had work to do.After drying off and slipping into a simple white top and jeans, I grabbed my bag and headed out. The library was quiet today, just the way I liked it. The smell of books and the soft hum of silence made it easy to forget the weight pressing on my shoulders. I found my usual corner by the windo
