JENNA If someone told me I would be marrying Jason, before I ever told him I loved him. I would have laughed in their face. But I did. I walked down the aisle. In the dress of my dreams if I ever had one and my babies were there. They were the best thing to ever happen to me in the world. They were already warming up to their father. Especially Nina. There was no surprise there as we all knew she would be a daddy’s girl. She has refused to leave her dad’s side. Ryan has stuck to mine. And Kai being the most carefree was already running around. Getting everyone in the pack to fall in love with him. Liz was taken away, along with her father. They were locked in the dungeon until their trial with the werewolf council. They were facing charges of attempted murder and kidnapping. And many other things Jason assured will be found. Alpha Zade mentioned how the council had been trying to get some dirt on Liz’s father. He was manipulative and a terrible person. But he also knew how to ti
JENNA“No!” Jason growls, shaking his head.I take another step forward and try to hold his hand but he quickly moves out of my reach.“You can’t be my mate!” He yells again. “Y-you’re not even part of the pack.”My lips part on a sob, and I start shaking my head in disbelief.Jason has never said that to me. He was always the one reminding me I was part of the pack. That it was my home, even if I wasn't born into it.“You’re my mate, Jason. Please.”I whisper, desperately needing him to stop looking at me with the emotion I see on everyone else’s faces, never on his.Jason’s face hardens and he doesn’t look like the boy I grew up with. He didn’t look like my best friend that I’ve known all my life. Not like my best friend that kissed me two weeks ago. Drunk and unfocused but we liked it. He wasn’t the boy I gave my virginity to because I was sure we were going to be mates.He looked disgusted.“No!” He snapped. “You’re not. You can’t be. I reject you as my mate.” He growls out, his v
JENNAI ran up to my room, not stopping even when the luna called me back. I didn't stop until I was safely in my room, the door locked.I tore the dress I was so happy to wear just a few hours ago, off me. With tears rolling down my face, I pull out the pins holding my hair up, tossing them to the floor with angry force.I changed into a t-shirt and jeans then pulled on a hoodie over my head. It was too big on me. It took only a second to realize it was Jason’s. He’d give it to me that night, one week ago when we were out by the river. I was cold before we went to sleep. Right there on the river bank, naked bodies tangled and arms wrapped around each other.My heart aches when I think of seeing him everyday. Having these memories forever. Both the good ones and the bad ones.I couldn’t handle that.I started removing the hoodie with trembling hands, but his scent kept me warm and made my insides flutter. I hated that he brought this pain upon me, but just his scent acted like a balm
JENNAIt was early morning, probably five in the morning, when I finally felt like I’ve gone far.I reached a highway, though there were no signs of life or a car. I’m hungry and tired and my clothes are ruined with dirt from the woods.Pausing on the side of the road, my shoulders give out and my duffel falls to the floor. My knees wobble and soon I find myself following my belongings.The ground is cold and hard, but it was a great relief. I lied down until I was on my back, then I breathed out through my mouth.Tears rolled down the sides of my face, hitting the ground beneath me. Thoughts of my life, the luna and alpha, and even Jason makes me miserable.Leaving had been painful and hard. But I knew it was the best thing for me.I stayed lying there for hours, probably. I was still there when the sun came out. There was still no sign of a car or a living being on the road.One on hand, it was good. It meant I wouldn’t run into rogues and risk being hurt. While on the other hand, I
JENNAI nodded and gave the man my best innocent look.He curses under his breath, his eyes losing focus like it does when you’re mindlinking.He rushes out of the cafe, probably off to deal with an emergency. I don’t wait until the door closes before I gather my stuff, the lady isn’t by the counter, so I just drop a bill for her.I head to the door, looking for the nearest opening to the woods then I run in that direction.I don’t make it far before I hear someone shout for me, then they start following me.I’m tired from last night and the tea and pie only satisfied me to some degree but I keep running.We’ve gotten into a darker and thicker part of the woods. I have to look around and be careful so as not to hit myself or end up tripping.I’ve put a bit of distance between me and the men that were following me. It isn’t so far that I could take a moment and rest. I need to keep moving.Something hits me out of nowhere and it makes my ankle bend in the wrong way. I bite my lip to st
JENNAMy eyes moved to the elderly woman who also looked tense, waiting for me to move. I don’t know what pushed me to respond, maybe it was the worry in the woman’s eyes.The look reminded me of the luna and it broke my heart.I tipped my head up in a nod. The woman’s shoulders visibly relaxed. I could see that she was glad I’m fine.I felt a little bit of relief at that.“Great.” The doctor smiles. “Do you know what day it is?”I thought over it for a bit.My birthday was Friday and I left the pack. It should be Saturday today, unless I don’t know how long I was walking for.I shake my head no.She hums, pressing her lips into a thin line.“Do you remember your name, age?”I nodded and she urged me to tell her.“Jenna.” My voice sounded hoarse.“Great Jenna, what is your surname?”She asked a few more questions after that which I replied. She left minutes later after telling the woman I’ll be fine and I just need some rest.“Would you like something to eat? I know the hospital food
JENNATears trailed down my cheeks as I silently cried.Both Indira and Lisa tried their best to get me to stop crying but I couldn’t. I did try, but the tears kept pouring down my face like a broken damn. Or nirvana.I didn’t want to believe the test was true. After the moment of clarity I had, realizing I’m an eighteen year old having triplets. A single teen mother.The pain I was feeling from the labor cramps was nothing compared to the burn in my heart.“Shhhh, deep breaths.” Lisa tried to calm me down, stroking my arm gently.I bit my lip, trying to hold back my wolf’s angry growl. She didn’t want anyone touching, she only wanted her mate.Somehow knowing we were about to have our baby made her forget said mate rejected us. And we were on our own.A cry tore from my chest and I ball my hands into tight fists. The sharp pain I felt in my palm made me moan in agony.My wolf was getting stronger and gaining over me as my human body became weaker. I felt like I was being torn open fr
JENNAOne word to describe the house right now is total chaos.I check the bottle in my hand, staring at it confused for a second before I recall what I was about to do with it.I was feeding Kai, when I heard Ryan crying. I went to check up on him because he’d been napping when his brother woke up. Only to find out, Nina, their baby sister had rolled down the other side of the couch.I left the two of them sleeping and went to the other room with their brother so he wouldn’t wake them up. I guess he did after all.Nina starts wailing loudly. Her cute little face scrunched up in offense when I didn't pick her up immediately.I drop the bottle and pick her up, balancing her on one shoulder. Ryan has stopped crying now and he seems to be nodding back to sleep.If I’m able to get her to nod off again, I can finish with Kai and—The doorbell rings almost immediately. I cry out in frustration. But thankfully the door opens before I could start going there and Nana rushes in.“Oh you poor c
