Hi, loyal reader. I hope you're doing great. How is it going with your favorite characters? Don't forget to leave a gem!!! Thank you
GwenI wasn't expecting to hear it. Jasper didn't have to, but he had insisted on teaching me after mentioning to Dr Benny that I was his mate. "Oh. Sorry. I didn't know," Dr Benny said. "I mean, I know you have a mate but I didn't know she was the one. You guys are rarely seen together in school.""You know now." Jasper shrugged. "We aren't like most mates who like to cling to each other. We give each other some space." "I understand." Dr Benny smiled. "Since that's the case, there would be no better person to do it than you then.""Great," Jasper whispered. "When will we be leaving?" "It depends on how she's feeling," Dr Benny said, walking up to Gwen to check her vitals. "Is your head still spinning? Will you be able to walk?""No. I don't feel dizzy anymore and I think I can walk," I told Dr Benny. "That's great. In that case, Jasper can take you home any moment from now.""Ok." I laid back on the bed thinking about what Jasper had said about wanting to teach me. What if it tur
Jasper"This is crazy, man!" Orion gaped at the bottle of drinks arranged around the corner, rocking his body to "You Can't Touch This" by MC Hammer. "That's what I'm talking about! Guys, what's a party without beer and music like fire?""That will be a prom!" Dorian answered, laughing hard. The boys and I laughed at the sarcasm. "Tonight's going to be great." Reginald beamed. "Hope a lot of girls turn out too." "They would. We should expect them to start trooping in anytime soon." I cramped all the pillows into one corner. "I told you homeboy (You can't touch this)" Orion sang along with the jam kicking his legs at different angles. "Yeah, that's how we living and you know (You can't touch this). Look in my eyes, man (You can't touch this)." He was staring into Eddy's eyes now and making his funny dance steps. Eddy threw a playful smack at him but he dodged it.Eddy yelled. "Those weren't the dance steps used in the video of the song.""What do you know?" Orion cracked up. "For su
JasperI went hunting in the woods twice. In the morning with the others, then this evening with Gwen. It wasn't a bad day but I urged her to do better. It was hard listening to her groaning in pain while shifting. But I was sure after a couple of weeks it wouldn't be as painful. I had brought my car because I had no idea if we were going to exceed one hour or two but it was to avoid walking home after the activity, so I thought it wise to drive us here. It would be easier for Gwen and I'm sure she would be too tired to walk. "Thank you," Gwen said. "Why are you thanking me? You aren't good at it yet.""Not that," she quickly said. "I have to thank you for your time and how considerate you've been so far. I didn't expect that you'll be this patient with me.""Why would you think I wouldn't be patient to teach you? I'm the one who wants to do this." "Um—nothing." She hesitated. "Say something," I said. "I won't bite you."She avoided my gaze. Her head lowered. "You…weren't like th
GwenThe movements of the leaves and the sound of breaking twigs echoed in my ears as we ran through the woods, dodging every tree on our path. Jasper was a few meters ahead of me. Keeping up with him as we ran on all fours was difficult. He was very fast. My paws hurt from smashing twigs and stepping on stones.Jasper said I'm going to learn the importance of bathing in the moonlight tonight. With each movement he made, his reddish-brown fur took on the enchanting hues of a twilight symphony, casting a mesmerizing shade under the moonlight. He slowed down when we reached a small clearing. He unclenched his jaws, laying down his clothes on the floor. In a few seconds, he has shifted to his human form. Standing that tall, I admired Jasper as he basked himself in the moonlight not minding that he was naked. That was how he wanted me to behave too; being confident in my nakedness. Although, earlier he allowed me to shift behind a tree again. His leniency surprised me. Perhaps he's giv
Jasper I haven't slept this well in a long while. My wolf was pleased. What happened between me and Gwen in the woods wasn't something I saw coming last night. I was taking it slow but the attraction between us was just too powerful to ignore. We didn't need words to express how we felt at that moment. I sniffed her invitation and I couldn't miss it for anything in the world. It was my chance to feel her against me and quench my desire of wanting to know how being inside her would feel. How the fuck did I even get from saying Gwen isn't my type to wanting to fuck her all over again? I recalled how she writhed beneath me while I was fucking her. Her moans, pleas, and firm grip are fresh in my mind. The mere thought of last night made me go hard again. Realizing how we synced so perfectly only fueled my craving for more. Her wolf was strong. My wolf felt it and was excited she could match our energy and strength. It was her first time. It's the reason I went in on her slowly and
GwenI wasn't familiar with who she was. She looked pretty but vengeful. She tried to push me and I didn't even do anything to her. She and Jasper were having a heated conversation. I was trying to make sense of it but he ordered me into the car. I could tell she wanted something from him because she asked him why he would choose to starve. Starve! From what? I hid my jealousy seeing her rubbing his arms when I got there. I fought the impulse of telling her to stay away from my mate. Do I even have the right? He smiled and pointed towards the car, I knew they were talking about me but couldn't get the gist. But I hear the word "Fucked". It wasn't a big deal to me because I was already used to Jasper's manner of speaking. He usually uses the F word when he's angry and very excited. Although, that's my observation. He got into the car, pleasing my nostrils with his scent. How I've missed it. He shut the door harder than he would have. My body tightened as I shifted in my seat, not
Gwen I received a lot of reactions as a result of my new look. To me, every reaction was a compliment as long as it was thrown my way.The reaction existed in different forms; from those who used words, those whose jaws dropped, those who stared, those who side-talked, to those who whistled, and so on. The talk in school and at my pack is that a new Gwen had emerged. I understood that Jasper wanted to help me boost my confidence but his softness towards me recently has me asking questions. Why is he warm towards me all of a sudden? He used to be hot then cold, hot again then cold again, going back and forth. Even before we had sex together he had begun to act soft towards me. Perhaps I should just enjoy it while it lasts. What if I confess to loving him at this rate? You can't do that! But it's how I honestly feel about him. My head is in a mess trying to talk myself out of ever confessing to Jasper about my true feelings and another telling me to enjoy all he's offering. "Gwen
JasperI caught Nancy sitting among her bunch of friends watching me and Gwen walk into the cafeteria. I stared back without breaking contact until she lowered her gaze. Envy was written all over her face. "Are you okay?" Gwen asked after I paused for a minute. "Yeah. I am." I dragged her to get our lunch. With our lunch served, I pulled her towards where the boys sat but she hesitated. Gwen didn't want to sit with them. "You wouldn't be sitting alone to eat anymore. You eat with me now.""But, you know they don't like me.""You aren't coming with me to impress them. You're doing this to break out of your shell.""But—""No buts. Just pretend this is also part of your training."Gwen exhales, then nods her head and slowly walks by my side.Gwen and I dropped our tray on the table and pulled out the chairs to sit on. "You know, in a few months the rest of us will have mates to cling to." Orion glared at me. "What little chit-chat were you guys having over there? Could you tell us?"
Jasper One month had passed since the miraculous events at the Coit Tower. The werewolf community had been shaken by the revelation of our fated bond and whispers of our extraordinary connection echoed throughout the packs.Gwen and I didn't need the Lunar Convergence anymore. The moonstone gave us what we wished; each other. "Hi, beautiful." I shut the door behind me. Gwen raised her head. She sat on her chair writing. "How's my mate doing?" I asked, staring into her gorgeous eyes. "My hands hurt from all the writing. I need to submit this report tomorrow." "Is it a lot?" I asked, trying to take a peek. "Out of ten, I've only done four." "Oops!" I exclaimed. She does have a lot to cover. Gwen tugged my arm. "Did you hear what happened to Reginald?" I was surprised to hear the question, wondering what must have happened. So I asked. "What happened?" "Leo called me fifteen minutes ago. He said a friend at Reginald's colony told him that Reginald was taken to the punishment camp
Gwen Life isn't fair. It has never been fair to me since the day I was born. It's never given me what I wanted. The few things it gave me, it gave me late; when others have long had theirs. I could still hear Jaspers scream in my head. Seeing him struggle to breathe, with blood coming out of his mouth and nose was terrifying. I could do nothing when he ingested the thornleaf. I watched in horror as he breathed his last. My cry echoed through the Sanctum. I wanted to take his place or better still die with him. But one of us needs to take the moonstone back home. The pack community was waiting for us to return on the third day.It was evening by the time we arrived at the Coit Tower. A large crowd had gathered, waiting for us. It seemed everyone wanted to see what would happen to those two who foolishly went against the mating laws. Probably they all wanted to find out if we would return with the moonstone or not.Jasper's body was dropped to the ground. The muttering from the crowd
Jasper "You're not a bad person. You've grown to become my favorite person." I confessed to Gwen. "I don't care about Selena. If anything, I'm glad you never told me about it because I would never have gotten to know you, and that would be a great loss. I was mean to you. I'm so sorry that my pride came before everything else."I let out a deep breath. "But why would you have a crush on someone as bad and irresponsible as I am?"Gwen lowered her head. " Simple. The heart wants what it wants. Trust me I've tried to hate you but I couldn't. I accepted that and from crushing on you, I moved to falling in love with you during the time I spent with you. I know you don't love me but what matters is that I do."I reached out to hold her hands and cup her cheek. "I was stupid not to notice. I feel jealous when guys talk to you. I wanted you just for myself," I whispered passionately. "At first, I thought I wanted you just for four months, but I realized I wanted you forever. My wolf is only p
Jasper I wanted to say many things to Gwen but I didn't know where to begin from. If I knew things were going to turn out this bad, I wouldn't have brought about this idea. I'm still shocked that a life will be given for the moonstone. It sounds like a joke. It's hard to take in. I leaned my back to the wall thinking of all my actions that led me to this point and I knew it was my pride. I wasn't patient enough to wait for the next Lunar Convergence. I wanted to control everything in my life. I'm used to winning all the time and not having things go my way makes me want to force it to. I watch Gwen as she quietly stays in her corner. She can't avoid me forever. At one point before midnight, one of us has to step forward. The most horrible way one of us would die is by not telling the other goodbye. I don't want to lie to myself. I regret starting this but I do not regret meeting her and knowing her better. She taught me someone can be good to you and accept nothing in return. I
Gwen I must say, I never expected this place to look like this. The people here live like one big family. There aren't more than two hundred people here, men, women, and kids., I am not so sure though.It's amazing how they could live in the middle of this forest away from the outside world. How do they live? No phones, no cars, no TV, no schools, no malls—you name it. They don't even wear clothes like ours; they have long fabrics with strings tied around their waist. Long, beautiful hair is one of the features they all have. Just like my mother showed me in the picture, my father also had long hair. It must be a law here to grow out the hair.My supposed aunt, Sonya Silverwood, is the Alpha of the Silverwood Grove; a position that belonged to my father, and in his absence it could only go to the next in line—Her. It's the first time I've seen a female Alpha. "Why did you allow me in? You were supposed to send me away," I said. Sonya grinned. "Your mother told you that, right?""
Jasper On foot, going to the Silverwood Grove takes a day and a half at most. Three wolf warriors, all guys, were asked to go with us. But they're not to interfere in our quest in any way. They would be lurking around somewhere observing all we did. This was to ensure they report back to the pack community everything that happens to ensure transparency. We walked in silence. Gwen didn't want to speak to me. I noticed she didn't want to get close to me either. As we walked, she stayed several inches away from me. She must be terrified. I could see it in her eyes back at the punishment camp. There's so much I do not know about Gwen. I thought I did. Zara revealed she's Silverwood. If we weren't seized and in such a predicament but happened to just be friends, that would've been great news. But it wasn't such great news with the quest at hand. Her father is a great figure. It's common knowledge that anyone who bears the last name Silverwood is a guardian of the grove and also a keepe
Gwen He wants to take the fall.To see him go down alone without accepting that I was also in the wrong would mean I was wicked and selfish. Yeah, I'm angry at him. I screamed cruel words at him. I told him I hated him. But could I ever? I don't think my heart could hate Jasper so easily. I've tried to in the past when he used to be my bully. People may say he manipulated me, he outsmarted me, or whatever they want. But I allowed him to. I encouraged it because I love him. My crush on him turned into stronger feelings, which later turned into love. Just as I gradually fell in love with him, perhaps I'll gradually fall out of love with him. My moments with Jasper were mostly adventurous. Everything wasn't entirely bad. I'm not ungrateful. Staying close to the guy I have wet dreams about was one of my desires; I wanted to be so close to him, to know what he smelled like and felt like. And I did get close and got to do a lot of things with him. My parents would never understand that
Jasper "Alpha Roderick, Your son, Jasper has to be taken in." Sid marched through the front door with a couple of his men. "A report came to us with enough evidence that he and Gwen committed a crime, a violation of social norms within our community. They are said to be fake mates."Father and Mother exchanged glances and turned to look at me, their eyes narrowed in disbelief. My father asked, "Jasper what's going on here? Do you know anything about what they are talking about?" "It's true... I forged a fake mate bond with Gwen.." Mother gasped. "What have you done?""I'm sorry, "I whispered. "I…I"Before I could say another word, my father slapped me across my face. "Take him away," he ordered, disappointment written all over his face. Mother nearly collapsed, but father was quick to hold her."Sid and his men dragged me away and put me into the back of a black van. It was so dark when the door to the van closed. I could feel the presence of other people in here from the body he
Gwen I had a bath and came down for dinner. Zara was home with us. Mother invited her for dinner. I've been down because of the fight I had with Jasper and didn't have an appetite for food. I had to come down to enjoy the moment with my family. Jasper isn't worth locking myself in my room and crying a long time for. At school today I stayed in the classroom throughout because I didn't want to see him. I don't think I can heal from this fast. How can someone I love manipulate me like this? Reginald is a devil but I don't care because he's not the one I love and care about. Jasper was the one who had my heart but he showed me how foolish I am. "Sweetheart, why are you playing with your food?" Zara asked. "Are you okay?"I forced a smile. "I'm fine.""No, she's not. Don't believe her," Mother said. "She's been like this since she fought with Jasper. We don't know what their fight is about.""Huh, mates' fight." Zara smiled cutely and winked. "It happens. You'll feel awful about you
