RAI

I couldn't sleep that night. Nadia had threatened to print wedding invitations and send them out without my approval. It shouldn’t have bothered me but it did. I'd planned to avoid Raelynn as much as I could. However, she'd called me the next morning, asking me to come to her office.

Sitting directly opposite her in her office, I couldn't look away from her for a second. Whatever attraction had been growing between us seemed to have escalated. My wolf was just as unsettled.

"What is this sudden meeting about?" I said, trying to distract myself from thinking about how good she smelled.

"I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this for Izzy," she said, rising to her feet.

I frowned at her, puzzled.

"Izzy asked me to examine you. She thinks there's something seriously wrong with you," she stated.

I scoffed, leaning back on the seat.

"Sure."

Raelynn halted in front of me and bent over a little. Then she brought the chest piece of her stethoscope to my chest. I stiffened, startl

    RAELYNN My mind was reeling as I drove to Judy's apartment. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get the look on Rai's face out of my mind. The moment he'd leaned into me, I'd hesitated. My body had strangely heated up and I'd instinctively leaned towards him as well. I must be going crazy, it's all I could think of as I parked the car and hurried out of it to knock on the door of Judy's apartment.She opened the door right away and I stormed in, raking my fingers through my hair."Judy, I think I'm losing it," I said and she winced. "What's wrong? I'll be right back, let me get you a glass of water," she said and left for the kitchen.My phone buzzed and a notification popped up. It was a message from my father. It said:'Today's my birthday, Rae. Would you please come home and have dinner with your family? I really want to fix things between us. I know I've betrayed your trust several times but at this point, I just want our family to become whole again.” I blew out a

    RAI I was anxious. For some unknown reason, Raelynn had chosen not to pick up my calls. I understood that she must've been shaken up by my sudden actions back at her office. Even so, this didn't make me feel any better. 'Rai, there's something you need to know,' Austin said to me through our mindlink and I stiffened when I sensed the worry in his mind. 'What's going on?' I asked. 'You do remember that you asked some scouts to watch over Raelynn just in case she was attacked again, right?' he said and my anxiety levels peaked even further. 'Go straight to the point, Austin,' I replied.'They reported that Raelynn indeed went home but there was a visitor at the house,' my beta communicated to me and I increased my speed. 'Was he identified?' I asked.'Alpha Stefan. He's the head of black diamond pack. He's one of the filthiest people to ever exist,' Austin said and my chest tightened, a heavy weight settling in my stomach.'How long has it been?' I asked him. My hands were be

    RAELYNN Air rushed into my aching lungs when I stumbled out of the closet I'd been locked in. Disoriented, I kept my eyes closed while I tried to catch my breath. Rai's soothing scent surrounded me, making me relax. Slowly, I opened my eyes and pulled away to look at him. My throat constricted at the sight of the tender gaze in his amber eyes and my heart started to race. Everything else seemed to have faded and it was just the two of us trapped in our world."Rai..." I breathed, tears filling my eyes when I noticed the way he held me in his arms. It was surprisingly gentle and warm. For a moment, I let myself believe that I was dreaming. "Rae? Are you alright?" He whispered, bringing a hand to the side of my face. I stared at him through blurry vision, fresh tears welling up in my eyes at the realization that I could've died today. If I'd died, I wouldn't be able to see my little girls again. Rai had rescued me. "Thank you," I croaked and his frown deepened. "Are you hu

    RAISeveral Years Ago, I fixed my gaze on the white ceilings of the ward I'd been admitted to, my brows furrowed. My parents had left a few minutes ago. I could sense them lingering along the hallway. I couldn't blame them. The doctor had told them that I had barely escaped death. While I thought about this, my frown deepened. I couldn't recall what had happened to me. The door slid open and an unfamiliar girl walked in. She had roses in her hands and a bright smile on her face."Hey," she said and I blinked at her, puzzled. She leaned over to embrace me and when she pulled away to gaze at my face, I could've sworn that for a moment, her eyes turned purple."Who are you?" I asked and she froze. "You don't... remember me?" I nodded and she turned pale. Wide eyed, I watched as she sank to her knees by my bedside. "It's me, Nadia. I'm your girlfriend, don't you remember that?" She said and I froze."Girlfriend?"If felt off. Something was wrong but I couldn't figure out what

    RAI I didn't stop to think, I went after the shooter in a blur of movements. He didn't have enough time to react. Before he could attempt to flee, I'd grabbed his arm and twisted it behind him while prying off his fingers off the gun. He screamed in pain as I twisted his fingers and pushed him to his knees. The gun fell to the ground with a dull thud and he flinched."Who are you?" I demanded and he kept his gaze lowered. Raelynn approached us with hesitant strides. Eventually, she halted right in front of us and slapped him across the face, twice. "How dare you?" She spat, her brows were furrowed at him. I could see the fiery rage in her eyes. "Who sent you?" I said to the shooter and he snarled."I'd rather let you kill me," he responded with a gruff voice and Raelynn picked up the fallen gun. I watched with wide eyes as she pointed the gun at his forehead."You really aren't afraid of death, is that it?" She demanded but he kept silent.In the spur of the moment, she aimed th

    RAELYNN "Congratulations on your wedding anniversary, Lynn," Judy, my childhood best friend, said, beaming at me. I forced out a smile, scanning the venue of the party. I was supposed to be having the time of my life tonight. However, all of this was just a pathetic cover-up. "By the way, where is your husband? He's nowhere in sight," Judy said, and I shrugged."He's an Alpha, you know? He's probably going around meeting the guests," I said, and she snickered."There you are. I've been looking for you," a familiar voice said from behind us, and I stiffened. Plastering a false smile on my face, I turned around to face him. Rai Vidal. He was the Alpha of Black Claw Pack, the strongest werewolf pack in both southern and northern America. He was my fated mate. And he was also the man to whom I was bound in a contractual marriage.Flashing me a grin that was definitely not genuine, he held out a hand towards me. Without a word, I placed my hand in his and let him steer me to

    RAELYNN A year ago, I discovered that Rai Vidal, the man I'd had a crush on for the longest time, was my fated mate. My father had been overjoyed because being mated to Alpha Rai would mean that I was to become Luna of one of the strongest packs. However, what he didn't know was that Rai didn't want me. He was in love with Nadia who was not ready to settle down for marriage. Since he didn't want to taint his reputation, he made me sign a contract with him in secret. I was to become his contract wife until Nadia became his wife. It was stupid. Even so, for the sake of my father, for the sake of the feelings I had towards him, I agreed to it. A part of me had believed that I would succeed in winning Rai's heart. Yet there I was, standing in front of my childhood home. I'd just been stabbed in the back by both my father and my husband."You don't mean that--" I started to say, tears blurring my vision. Before I could say anything else, my father slapped me across the face. It s

    FIVE YEARS LATER,RAELYNN "Doctor Lynn, your phone has been ringing since you entered the surgical room," Rose, my assistant, said to me as soon as I stepped into my office."An unknown number?" I asked, and she nodded. "It's quite strange. This person has called you twenty-six times already. Maybe an ex?" I chuckled, accepting the phone she held out to me. I had a feeling that the caller was no other person than my father. It was just about time. After the incident, five years ago, I faked my death and stayed in the region dominated by Lycans, with the man who had rescued me from what could have been my death. Only recently did I pull some strings to get my father to know that I was still alive. While in my grip, my phone rang out. The call was from an unknown number. "You can go now. Thank you, Rose," I said to my assistant, and she nodded before walking out of my office. Sinking into my seat, I picked up the call and brought the phone to my ear. "Raelynn, it's me. Yo

    RAI Kissing her again for the first time in five years made my heart pound in excitement. I hadn't felt like that in a while. Nothing else mattered in that moment. It was petty of me to stake my claim in such a tense situation. I had no excuse. I had reached my limits at this point. When I pulled away to see the emotions in her brown eyes, I realized what I'd just done. Her eyes were clouding up with moisture and a spark of rage enveloped her beautiful brown eyes and my chest tightened. Against her will, I'd just kissed her. "Rae..." I started to say, reaching out to hold her. But then, she slapped me across the face. It stung but I knew that I deserved something worse. Even so, I couldn't stand the fact that she'd just been on a date with Kyan. Kyan lurched forward, grabbing me by the front of my black shirt, his eyes fired up with fury. "How dare you? You are her ex-husband. You have nothing to do with her," he growled. "I'm leaving," Raelynn said through gritted teeth.

    RAELYNN The concern in Kyan's voice brought a smile on my face. "I'm okay. I didn't get hurt," I said to him. I didn't think he needed to know about Susan's death or how I was barely keeping myself from mulling over how she'd died in front of me. "That's a relief. You've gone through so much," Kyan stated and my smile widened."I appreciate your concern for me, Kyan. I haven't done a lot for --""I'm inviting you to dinner. Tonight," he said and I went still, tightening my grip on the phone. The last thing I wanted to do at the moment was attend a date. Especially not after everything that had happened within the past few hours. "Kyan, I'm not really interested in any of that," I said to him."Come on, Raelynn. You've been through a lot. You should relax and unwind. Trust me, you won't regret it," he stated and I heaved a sigh."Fine.""That's great! I'll send you the address of the restaurant. I would have invited you to a private dinner at my home, but I don't want to co

    RAI I narrowed my eyes at the monitor in front of me. Displayed on the screen was a live video of Raelynn confronting Susan. I should've known that she would try to do something like this. If she wanted to satisfy her curiosity that badly, she shouldn't have let me find out about it. However, the moment she turned away to leave, Susan called out to her and I stiffened. Listening closer to their conversation, I fixed my gaze on Susan who was visibly trembling. "Who was it, Susan. Don't be afraid. You can tell me," I heard Raelynn say. Susan started to back away, shaking her head vigorously. All of a sudden, her neck got twisted in a gruesome manner, blood splashing all over the wall. A muffled scream escaped Raelynn's lips as she stumbled backwards, her hands clamped over her mouth. Shooting to my feet, I instantly mindlinked Jared. 'Get her out of there, right now.'He responded immediately. 'Yes, Alpha.'My blood boiled in my veins at the thought of whoever was responsible
