The sparkling light of the full moon lit up the Moonlit Meadow in front of them. Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood next to Amelia, the woman who had given him both comfort and worry. Alpha Gabriel Rivers, who stood at a respectful distance, never took his eyes off the woman he used to think was his fated mate. His face was a mix of sorrow and determination."Ethan," Gabriel said, breaking the tense quiet with a shaky voice. "I know I made a big mistake. I can't live without you, though."Gabriel's refusal still hurt, so Ethan's jaw tightened. "You said I wasn't good enough," he spat out, trying to keep his anger in check.Gabriel moved closer, and his eyes seemed to beg. "I made a mistake, Ethan. I let my pride and ego get in the way. I can now see that you are better than enough. You're exactly what I've always wanted."Amelia carefully watched the two people talk, keeping her own feelings hidden behind a face of stoicism. Ethan knew that she was hiding things from him, thin
The silver light of the full moon lit up the Moonlit Meadow in front of them. It had been weeks since Ethan's life had been turned upside down, and as he stepped onto the holy ground tonight, he felt both scared and determined.Amelia walked next to him, and her presence was both comforting and confusing. They had become close by telling each other stories and keeping secrets, but the fact that she had told them who she really was still hung heavy between them."Ethan," Amelia said in a soft but firm voice, "there's something I need to tell you."He looked at her as his heart was beating hard in his chest. "What's that?"She took a big breath and looked straight at him. "I am not who you think I am. "Amelia Blackwood is not my real name."Ethan's brow creased, and he felt confused. "Who are you then?"She thought for a moment, then spoke with a mix of sadness and resolve. "Hi, I'm Selene Rivers. Gabriel is my brother."Ethan's eyes got big with surprise. The name shocked him, and he c
Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood at the edge of the Moonlit Meadow. This was where he had found peace and a love he hadn't expected. The full moon lit up the night with an otherworldly light, and it cast long, spooky shadows across the clearing. He just couldn't get rid of the feeling that everything would change tonight.Amelia stood next to him, and the light from the moon could be seen in her eyes. Ethan was shocked when he found out who she really was, but he couldn't deny the connection they had. It was a link that went beyond the laws of fate, and it scared and excited him at the same time."Amelia," Ethan said in a shaky voice, "I need to know the truth. Who exactly are you?"She looked at him with a steady gaze. "I watch over the Moonlit Meadow, Ethan. A guardian of this holy place."Ethan's forehead wrinkled up in confusion. "A watchman? Why didn't you tell me before?"Amelia sighed, and her face showed that she was sorry. "No, Ethan, I couldn't. My job is to keep t
As Ethan and Amelia moved deeper into the Moonlit Meadow, the moonlight came through the thick tree cover and made surreal patterns on the forest floor. There was a lot of excitement in the air, and the full moon in the distance made everything look strange.Ethan's heart was still hurting from Gabriel's rejection, but his bond with Amelia was getting stronger every day. As they walked together, the secrets they both knew hung between them like a thin thread.The quiet was broken by Amelia's trembling voice. "Ethan, there's something important I need to tell you."He turned to look at her, and the moonlight made his eyes dance with doubt. "Amelia, what is it?"She took a deep breath and tightened her grip on his hand. "I'm not who you're thinking I am."Ethan's forehead creased. "What exactly do you mean?"Before she said anything else, Amelia paused and looked down. "I'm not just a woman who fell into your life by chance. I have a complicated history."His heart was beating fast. "Am
As Ethan stood between Gabriel and Amelia, the stress in the air sounded like a storm about to break. The full moon hung low in the night sky, giving the area where they were meeting an eerie light.Gabriel begged, "You have to believe me, Ethan," and his voice was full of despair. "I made a terrible mistake, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to fix it."Amelia took a step forward, her eyes full of sadness and purpose. "Ethan, I need to tell you something. It's about my history and who I am."Ethan's mind was full of different thoughts and feelings. He had come so far on his path to healing and finding himself, and now everything depended on what happened next. He looked at both Gabriel and Amelia, trying to figure out what to do."Tell me," Ethan said, his voice shaking because he didn't know what to do.Gabriel moved toward Ethan and locked his eyes on Ethan's. "Ethan, I turned you down because I was afraid. Afraid of what our relationship meant and the burdens it brought. But
The Moonlit Meadow had a surreal glow because the moonlight got through the thick cover of trees. Ethan stood at the edge of the clearing and watched the pack gather for the full moon celebration. The air was full of excitement. After Gabriel's statement, it had been weeks, and Ethan's heart was still torn between his soul mate and the mysterious Amelia.Gabriel walked up to Ethan with a look of both hope and worry on his face. "Ethan, can we talk? "By Myself."Ethan thought for a moment before nodding. They walked to the edge of the field, where no one could see or hear them."So, Gabriel, what is it?" There was a hint of tiredness in Ethan's voice.Gabriel took a deep breath, never taking his eyes off Ethan. "Since I turned you down, I've thought about us every day. I can't stand to think of you going away, Ethan. You are my soulmate, and I made a terrible mistake in choosing you."Gabriel's words hurt Ethan's heart, but he couldn't deny how many different things he felt. "Gabriel,
The moonlight gave the area a ghostly glow and made long, scary shadows. When Ethan stood at the edge of the area and looked at Gabriel, the alpha who had once broken his heart, the strain in the air was almost too much to bear."You're here," Gabriel said in a voice that was strained and full of both hope and fear.Ethan didn't say anything right away. His heart was pounding in his chest as he thought about how painful it was to be turned down and how humiliating it was to be told he wasn't good enough. But he had come here tonight to put the past to rest, face it, and maybe find a way to heal."I am," Ethan said with a steady voice. "But it's not to get back together like we used to."Gabriel nodded, and he looked sad. "Ethan, I know I hurt you. I was a fool because my pride and lack of knowledge made me blind. But I've spent nights looking at the moon and realizing that I was wrong. You were meant to be my partner, and I should have loved you more."Ethan's eyes were wet from tears
Ethan's heart was beating like a drum as he stood in front of Gabriel, his fated mate, and Amelia, the mysterious woman who had caught his heart. The full moon was low in the sky, giving the clearing an eerie glow."Talk," Ethan ordered, his voice shaking with fear and anger.Before taking a big breath, Amelia gave Gabriel a quick look that couldn't be read. "Ethan, there's something you need to know," she said in a sad voice.Ethan's jaw was tight as he waited for the news that could once again break his world."I'm not just a regular woman," Amelia said next, staring into his eyes. "I keep the secrets of the Moon Goddess safe. I'm here to keep you safe.""Protector me from what?" Ethan asked, becoming even more confused."From Gabriel," she said, turning her head to look at the leader.Gabriel took a step forward, and his face showed both regret and resolution. "Ethan, I didn't turn you down on purpose. I did it because I thought that was the only way to keep you safe."Ethan's mind
