MAXINEI smiled, staring at the new phone. Liam didn't want to get me a phone because he thought it would make me distracted and I wouldn't be able to do my job well.I wanted to call him. But, I didn't have his number and even if I did, I wasn't sure if he wanted to be reminded of this small kindness he just did to me. I didn't know what was acceptable now.Still, I was grateful for the phone and I didn't hesitate to find out all the things that it could do.I was still very much sore from last night so I called in sick to work and had a warm bath. I was feeling a bit sick. The warm bath helped a bit. After that, I washed off the stained blanket and stayed in bed, using my phone.I was extremely bored after a few hours. I didn't have any of my friend's numbers and I still hadn't gotten my things from the old house.I decided that I had to get this done or forget about actually moving in completely anytime soon. I pulled on baggy joggers and locked the doors, stuffing my keys in my po

MAXINE"I'm sorry, you startled me." I quickly apologized and crouched down to pick up the pieces of glass on the floor. I packed them up and threw them into the bin."You're so unaware of your situation that it irritates me," he said with a growl. I saw his eyes glow briefly and I froze, looking up at him. He looked away, rolling his eyes briefly in the process."I'm sorry, master," I apologize getting the broom and sweeping up the smaller pieces of glass."Why can't you shift into a wolf yet?" He suddenly asked. He sounded like he was curious."I don't know," I said, trying to keep the annoyance from my voice.I asked myself this question many times and I still didn't have an answer. His asking me this, just reminds me too much of how incompetent I was as a werewolf."Come here," he said.I left the kitchen and walked towards him. I stood in front of him, waiting."Sit," he instructed. I sat by his feet, oddly like a patient dog. I had mixed feelings about it.He looked at the boxe

MAXINELiam was clenching his jaw so I could tell that he was in a lot of pain. I don't know why he chose to come to me instead of the pack hospital.I had no one to help me and I was scared that he was going to die in my arms and I would be blamed for his death."What do I do?" I asked, about to panic. Some of the wounds were still bleeding out. I had to do something."One thing at a time. One thing at a time." I reminded myself as I ran to get a clean cloth from the laundry I had done. I came back and ripped it, pressing it against his wound.I needed to find a lighter. And fast. I rummaged through my kitchen but I didn't find any. "Where's the lighter?" I asked, ready to cry.There was a knock on the door. I went to answer it, making sure that the door didn't reveal that Liam was in my living room. My neighbor, Lindsey, was at the door."Uh, now is not the time," I said forcing a smile and trying to close the door."I just wanted to say thank you and return the hammer," She said, h

LIAMI was putting on my jacket when I heard her room door open. Perfunctorily, Maxine walked over to the kitchen to drink water. She didn't notice that I was standing. I stood there and put on my jacket, waiting for her to notice me."You better not drop that glass," I said, my voice thick from unuse.Maxine yelped, jumping as she turned. She held on tightly to the glass cup this time. "You're up!" She said, putting the cup down on the kitchen island and walking towards me. "How do you feel?"I put a hand up to stop her advances. I know that she had saved me but this level of affection between the two of us was unnecessary. She was only here to satisfy my needs."Where are Varis and Kris?" She looked like she was hurt by my behaviour but I didn't care. She looked at the time on the clock."They're supposed to be here any moment from now." She replied standing away from me. "Master." She added.Good. We were back to how it was supposed to be. I was her master and she did whatever I wa

LIAMI removed the leather gloves and wiped my hands clean with a handkerchief. The guards found the man and took him back to his cell. When I was done cleaning my hands, I turned to the two of them."And do you know how he had found out I was going to be there?" I asked, still cleaning my hands although there was nothing on them. I was trying to keep my anger in check."You think we have a spy?" Kris asked."Why don't you tell us, Varis?" I asked, looking at him. He immediately bowed his head."I'm sorry, Liam." He apologized. Kris looked at him with his jaw dropped."You're a spy?" Kris asked."He's not, you bastard. Varis doesn't have the guts to betray family." I said.We were like family. That was sure."He wanted to apologize. So, you told him where I was going." I said, a sort of eery calm coming over me. "Why was he in my territory to begin with? I sent him away.""I thought he was here to apologize." Varis defended himself. "In hindsight, it was foolish. I didn't know he was

MAXINEIt's been almost a week and I still have not heard from Liam. I contemplated going to the pack house to see him but I know how much he hates someone coming over without his permission.I hadn't even seen him in the pack hospital or heard any talks of him in town. It was oddly quiet.When I remembered how coldly he had acted to me, I didn't want to see him anymore. I think it was better like this. If he gave me space and stopped showing up, I wouldn't be worried about him as much.I unlocked my door and just then Lindsey came to meet me. "Hey there, neighbor!" She said cheerily."Oh yeah," I said. "Wait here." I went back into the house and got the blowtorch I had borrowed from her.I went to meet her and returned it. "Sorry, I took so long to return it. Thank you." I said. She took it from me."How was the cake?" She asked."Huh? What cake?" I asked back, confused.She chuckled. "You know, the one you borrowed my blow torch for?""Ohh, that cake. It was okay. I'm not too good w

MAXINEI was shocked. And it wasn't because Liam had just invited me to go to a party. He had invited me to go to a party… with me. He wanted to go somewhere with the outcast."Maxine," Liam said snapping me back to reality. His piercing gaze was on me.I took deep breaths. "I… what about work tomorrow? I have—" I said, panicking and coming up with excuses. What would people think if they saw me with Liam at a party?I wasn't his Luna, I wasn't a wolf. I was nothing. They would see right through me."I will handle that. Do you have a dress or do I have to get you one?" He asked, sternly.I tried to think. The only dress I had for an event was the one I wore that festival when Tobias found Ella as his mate. I didn't know if that was suitable."Let me go get it," I said, waiting for him to permit me to go to my bedroom.He nodded and waved me away. "You can go." He said.I hurried to the bedroom and entered, closing the door behind me. I leaned on it and exhaled deeply. I couldn't stay

MAXINEI got a job working at the pack hospital again. This time, I signed up to be a real medical practitioner. I was going to become a midwife. There were a few familiar faces at the hospital and lots of new ones.Still, I was grateful to Ronan for giving them this opportunity again.That evening, I walked back into my apartment. The dead herbs were still in a box on the floor in the kitchen. I wondered if I would go back. I used to pick herbs and sell them to women who wanted to get pregnant.It felt like eons ago. Times were simpler. Back then, I saved lives not help take them. That was a time when I didn’t have blood on my hands.I sighed, running my fingers through my hair. I wanted my simple life again. It was simple but everything made sense. I didn't have to try to untangle myself from this mess that was my reality.A knock on the door brought me back. Zel was back from work. She worked as a bartender a little while from our apartment. Zel had gotten the job. After the manag

MAXINEI nodded, not trusting myself to speak without crying. Ella was right. I needed to let myself grieve. The love I once had for Ronan still occupied my heart.Lindsey reached out and held my hand. "We’re here for you, Maxine."I squeezed her hand, grateful for their support. They were right. I didn’t have to go through this alone. I had them.Maybe it wasn't so bad after all.***Going back to my old life felt like stepping into a strange place. There was the feeling of losing something. My apartment felt like a place from a faraway memory. Zel was gone and I was feeling so sad.I was back from saying goodbye. I unlocked the door and stepped inside. The space was just as I’d left it. There was still dust over everything. At least, I had something to do with my time.I took a deep breath. I hadn't lost everything. I was still okay.I began to clean up slowly. Lindsey stopped by to help me out and together, we covered a lot. As I was cleaning, I heard a knock on the door.“Are you

MAXINEI wanted to believe her that everything would be okay but deep down, I felt guilt and grief. This was my fault. I pulled back from her and wiped my eyes. I gave her a shaky smile. “It doesn’t feel like it.”She cupped my cheek. “Everything isn't always as it seems, my dear. But, I can tell you one thing I know for sure.” She said.“What's that?”“It's not your fault. I'm sure you don't know where to go from here, what to do, or where you belong. You want to come with me, you want to continue your life back at the place where you and Zel liked and you want to go back to how things were in this pack.” Cinder explained.“But, I see you staying here. This is where your strength lies, where hope lives, where you have friends and support.” She lowered her eyes and winked. “It's where you have a future.”“And, we'll always be here for you to fall back on, regardless of what happens. We're your home away from home.” The Luna Queen said, putting her hand on my shoulder. “I'm very proud.

MAXINEI didn't feel anything. No pain from a stab whatsoever. I looked between us and that's when Ronan smiled. His lips were close to my ear and he whispered, “I would never hurt you on purpose, love.”I didn't know when I screamed.Ronan collapsed into my arms, taking the both of us down to the ground with him. I tried my best to hold his head up on my lap. My eyes traveled down to the blood pouring down the stab wound in his belly.“Ronan,” I called, tears filling my eyes and rolling down my cheeks. He had stabbed himself.My hand shook as it hovered over the wound. I didn't know what to do. The dagger was in his chest.Ronan had chosen death. Death over a life without me.“Maxine…” he called, his voice unnaturally calm for someone who was dying. He reached up to touch me and I guided his hand to my cheek.“I'm here, I'm here,” I cried. “I'm sorry,” I whispered the last part. My hands shook as I held him. I never wanted this. I didn’t want him to die.Ronan gasped. He looked up

MAXINEI held my breath as Ronan kept his eyes on mine. When he was close enough, he stopped. Neither of us said a word. The battle continued around us but I couldn't get myself to make the first move.He didn't either. I wondered if it was hard for him to see me. I wondered if he thought he could fight me. I also wondered if he thought that he could kill me.I spoke up first. “Ronan,” I called. My voice was sounding more longing than I wanted.I missed him, to be honest. I missed sitting down in the quiet and reading books. Strangely, I missed making his cinnamon coffee.Ronan didn't say anything. Instead, he took a step closer. “You don’t have to do this,” he said.There was no hurt, no anger in his voice, just nothing but kindness. I wished he would yell. I wished he would curse me and call me evil for everything I've done.“Come with me.” He said, softly. I heard it regardless of the noise. “We can fix this, Maxine. We'll leave everything behind together.”It sounded so good. But,

MAXINEHe caught me off guard. It meant that he still cared about me. I didn't focus on that though. “I won’t, I promise,” I replied.We stood there in silence for a while, neither of us knowing what to say. I could feel it though. I could feel it. The unspoken feelings and questions we didn't have the time to ask.Or we didn't dare to ask, I guess.After everything that had happened, I still wasn’t sure where we stood. I said I was okay with him hating me but, I didn't know anymore. The lines between us were confusing now. I didn't know how to fix that.But now wasn’t the time to focus on that. We had a mission and that was a priority. Every other thing could come after. We would cross that bridge later.For some reason, Liam stepped closer and I held my breath. “Regardless of what has happened between us, out there?” He said, “No matter what happens, we’ll get through this together. Do you understand?”I nodded. “Together,” I repeated.Before I could say anything else, Zel appeared

MAXINECinder gave me and Zel a brief of the plans that night when she showed us a bedroom. She and the Luna Queen were sharing the one right next to us. They told us to come to them if we faced any issues.Sleep didn't come easy because my mind was entirely on Ronan. I didn't know how I was going to face him again after betraying his trust. But, I knew I couldn't sit out of this fight.The sun had not even risen when I was woken up by the sound of Liam's voice. He was given instructions and I heard more footsteps around the house than the number of people I had seen the previous day.It meant that Liam was already up and gathering the troops. I could hear him giving commands like it hadn't been two months since he was last in power. He was a natural-born leader. He carried this air of authority around him.He was giving orders, explaining ranks and positions for this fight. Every single detail was important to winning.Zel was still asleep, of course. She wasn't a wolf so she wouldn'

MAXINEI chuckled bitterly. “What about now?” I asked. “Will you take me back now that I have a wolf? Isn't that what you've always wanted?”His eyes widened slightly but he kept himself composed. “That would be unfair to you. It would be wrong. If you want to come back to me, I will take you but the choice is yours now. You have a choice and I see now that I was wrong. I’m so sorry, Maxine. I hope you can forgive me.”Tears welled up in my eyes. I hadn't thought about this but I let the anger roll away from me. He was still family. He was my father. “I forgive you. You're my father, whether you abandon me or not.” I said.“Thank you, Maxine.” He said. He reached for me hesitantly. I would have settled for a handshake but he wrapped his hands around me. For the first time in what I knew was forever, my father hugged me.I didn't know what to feel about that.LIAMAfter Maxine spoke to her father, they returned to the living room. However, she moved toward the far end of the room, away

LIAMDespite everything that was unfolding in front of me, my thoughts were stuck on one thing.Maxine had a wolf.I couldn't wrap my head around it. After everything that had happened to her, it didn’t make sense. I glanced at her. The strange white-haired girl was sitting between us.Maxine was staring out of the window. The white-haired girl squeezed her hand. Maxine turned to look at her and offered her a small smile. That was when she caught me staring. She looked away, taking her eyes back to the window.It left me confused. Was she pissed at me? I was the one who had the right to be mad at her. She had chosen him over me. Well, the distance between us was necessary.I didn't know what I would say or do if I were sitting next to her. Kris took a sharp turn, causing Maxine to grab the handle of the car door. I opened my mouth to say something but I stopped myself. There would be time for questions later.“You alright back there?” Varis asked.“We’re fine,” I said. I didn't know i
