*BRIANNE’S POV*

I got to room 206, the hotel room I was supposed to meet him. Marcus, my mate, and one true love.

I rang  the doorbell, smiling widely as every nerve in my body pinged in raw anticipation.

The door opened, but what I saw wasn’t what I was expecting.

“Can I help you?” The sweet feminine voice spoke. Her black hair cascaded over her shoulders, contrasting the white robe she had on.

I stood there, staring at her in confusion… ‘Did I miss rooms?’ ‘This is probably the wrong room’.

“Sorry uhm…I think I got the wrong room..” these words had barely left my lips when I heard a familiar voice from inside the room.

“Baby, what’s going on? Is that room service?”  A deep voice echoed from inside the hotel room.

“Marcus?” I subconsciously stuttered.

“Brianne..”

My gut twisted at the sight before me. He stood there staring at me, I looked back at the lady, wondering what on earth she was doing here.

“Marcus, what’s going on? Who’s this?” I asked, refusing to believe what my mind was telling me.

“What do you mean by that? I’m his girlfriend. The question should be, who ARE you?” The lady said even before Marcus  could speak.

‘Girlfriend? Did she say girlfriend?’. I burst into laughter, my head was in absolute chaos but I was laughing.

“No Marcus, what is going on? Who is she and what is she doing here?” I asked him for the second time, hoping to get a reply that suits my expectation.

I stared straight at his eyes, trying to find answers. I watched his eyes as they darkened, his brows furrowed in a twist of what seemed like anger.

“This is Tianna, she’s my girlfriend,” he finally spoke, without an ounce of hesitation or guilt.

I felt an undiluted pinch in my heart. “What does that mean?” I scoffed. “Marcus our mating ceremony is in two fucking days, what do you mean by she’s your girlfriend?” I forced a smile and tried to reason with him.

“Enough Brianne, enough!!” His voice thundered. That came as a shock, Marcus  has never raised his voice at me before.

“Just because I pity you doesn’t mean I love you, I only saved you from those people who bullied you. You didn’t actually think I was going to mate with you right?” He asked me,  his eyes wide like a maniac. I could clearly see the betrayal in his eyes.

Before I could give an answer, his laugh broke the silence. “Bri, it’s over between us,” He said with a stern gaze, his voice was cold and void of any emotion.

“What’s the meaning of this?” The question came out shakily, my world was crumbling before my eyes, I didn’t want to believe anything he just said.

“What he meant was, he can’t be mated to a filthy omega like you” the lady spoke.

‘A filthy omega like me…’ the statement echoed in my head like stingrays. A bitter taste coated my tongue. Betrayal, and cold fury pricked at my heart..

My breath was uneven, my chest was heavy, I felt light headed.

 ‘A filthy omega like me…’.

These words kept ringing like a bell. Everything suddenly became blurry as my world began to spin. I kept drifting away into an oblivion, trying so hard to reach for Marcus’ hands.

Suddenly I jolted up, the bright light that came from the window flashed through my eyes.

I winced and quickly covered my eyes. I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. It was my room… only then did I realize I had been dreaming.

I fell back on my bed and covered my face with the blanket.

“What a nightmare”

Being an omega wasn’t easy, but being an omega who couldn’t shift?!!!

I have a lot going on with me. Not only was I cheated on two days to my mating ceremony, I was also rejected by Marcus.

I had told my father that I didn’t want to push through with the mating process because of what Marcus  did.

“You have no say in that, for an omega who can’t shift, you have no right to reject a beta”

Those were his exact words. I found it hilarious, but it was even more hilarious when I heard these words

“I, Marcus Mateo  reject you, Brianne, as my mate,”

As if that wasn’t what I wanted? Just because I’m weak doesn’t mean I can’t dictate what goes on in my life.

“Brianne!!!”

My mom’s yell pulled me out of my thoughts.

“Don’t just stay up there and sleep all day, come help me with breakfast,”  Her voice echoed again.

I rolled my eyes and got out of bed. Everyone is extremely loud as hell in this house; you can’t get a single morning of peace.

“Morning Mom,” I greeted as I climbed down the stairs.

“Oh, the Wizard of Oz is awake,” my brother teased mockingly.

I shot him a deadly stare. “ don’t be an asshole, idiot” I snapped at him.

“Word,” my mom interrupted the brewing banter that was about to take place in her kitchen.

My brother rolled his eyes at me. “ well it’s past 9am,” he muttered.

“Why don’t you look for something meaningful to do with yourself this morning,” my mom turned to him and gave him a stern warning.

“So what are we having for breakfast” I asked with a smile.

“French toast” my mom replied indifferently.

My smile dropped. How could I not have known? It’s always French toast these days. I’m  sick and tired of it.

“Bri,” my mother called out my name unexpectedly.

I looked up, sensing something unusual in her tone. I stared at her, urging her to continue.

“Your father wants you to accompany him to the party tonight,” she said gently.

“What?” I exclaimed. There was a party happening today and it was a party for the nobles, how could I possibly be there?

“Is Father trying to humiliate me or what?” I demanded

“He knows very well I hate such gatherings” I said, my voice tight with emotion.

“No dear, your father isn’t trying to shame you,” My mother replied in a soothing voice.. “He just wants you to mingle more,” she tried to convince me.

I blinked in disbelief  “In a party full of nobles?” I retorted.

“And so?” My mother tried to reason with me.

I let out a sigh of frustration and threw the napkin on the sink as I dashed out of the kitchen.

***

Forced to be at a party I didn’t want to attend? So typical of my father.

I sat in a corner, watching the elegant crowd and trying my best to stay unnoticed.

“Hey beautiful” a soft masculine voice suddenly spoke behind me.

I turned around only to be met with a pair of captivating, enigmatic eyes. His broad figure loomed above me, making his presence impossible to ignore. He grinned at me, flashing a set of dazzlingly  white teeth…

    *BRIANNE’S POV*“What’s a pretty lady doing all by herself?” The question rolled off his tongue like candy melting off the stick, his deep voice added an extra layer to the flirtation.“Hi,” I responded calmly.“Josh…my name’s Josh,” He said, flashing an even broader smile.I stared at him, mesmerized by how someone could look so cute and majestic at the same time. His looks were so inviting and charming that his flirting didn’t even feel like flirting.“Uhm…this is the part where you tell me your name” He prompted, pulling me out of my thoughts.“I’m Brianne” I replied, feeling a little bit caught off guard.“Wow, a pretty name for a pretty lady,” He said in a low seductive chuckle.He was about to say something more when a tall man barged into our little corner. His presence immediately commanded attention as his hazel-golden-like eyes locked on Josh and me.“Josh, don’t just go around flirting. I need you with me, now” He commanded, his voice brooking no argument.Alpha Jordyn…Ever

Searching for my phone and trying not to wake up the man on the bed was such a hard task.After finding my phone, I immediately dialed Mary’s number, hoping she’d have answers to my questions. How did I end up in a room with a man? and not just any man. Jordyn?What is going on?“What are you doing?”A deep voice resounded through the room, making me almost jump out of my wits. I shrieked and snapped my head towards him.There he sat, with his eyes dark as night. His hair was all over his face, making the scene before me look way too unholy.“I said what are you doing?” His voice echoed across the room for the second time. My lungs couldn’t find the energy to produce words. And worst of all, I was standing fully naked in front of a man I hardly knew.“Uhm…” I couldn’t bring myself to

    *JORDYN'S POV*I stared into blank space with my legs crossed as if the weight of my thoughts anchored me to the spot.I kept my composure in front of her but deep down, I was a whirlwind of emotions.I had a lot to drink last night but I could recall what happened, although not clearly.The moment I laid my eyes on her at the noble’s party, a strange sensation cursed through my veins. It was something I had never felt before, something new. Underneath my composure, I felt my wolf tearing through my skin and trying to break free from my control as if desperate to claim this mysterious woman as its own.I had snuck out of the noble’s party because I felt suffocated in there. It was quite shocking that I also met her at the club. It wasn't love at first sight, Maybe I was just sexually attracted but there was something about her I couldn’t quite understand.It’s even more tragic that she couldn’t remember grabbing my wrist so tight and throwing me on that bed with a strength that belied

    *BRIANNE’S POV*His threat sent cold chills down my throat.Is he literally forcing me to be his girlfriend?Well, what would I expect from an alpha of his reputation.Why would he even bother himself with me in the first place?“Where is your house?” His husky voice asked calmly.Another reason why I regret getting into this car. What would my father say when he sees me with him.“The second house on the ninth street” I answered, almost choking on my own saliva.Today would be the day my father would finally kill me. He’ll probably think I’m finally into some kind of hook up business after been rejected by my mate, because there’s no way in hell an Alpha of Jordyn’s caliber would have any sort of interest in me.The thought of me, an omega, catching the eye of someone like Jordyn was laughable. It is inconceivable that someone of Jordyn’s stature would be interested in me.The closer we drew to my house, the more scared I became. I silently prayed for a miracle to happen—any miracle,

    *BRIANNE’S POV*I stood frozen in the darkness of my room, staring at my phone screen. The coldness in Jordyn’s voice kept me glued to the spot. I couldn’t shake off the feeling that he was watching me; even though I could not see him, my spine tingled.Out of fright, I hastily rushed to my window and slammed it shut. His words echoed in my head. ‘We’re not done yet.’What did he mean by that? I thought this whole charade was only going to last three weeks. Wasn’t that the deal? I was starting to doubt because Jordyn’s voice hinted at something more sinister, as if he was extending the agreed timeframe.“This is exhausting” I let out a deep sigh, my shoulders slumping in fatigue. I wondered if I had underestimated Jordyn’s intentions, why did I have to be caught up in an Alpha’s world? I had always tried to stay unnoticed, to blend into the background, and not draw unnecessary attention to myself. So where could I have gone wrong?His words ‘we’re not done yet’ sounded more like a pro

    *BRIANNE’S POV*“Why do I have to train at the pack house?, can’t I train somewhere else?” I asked as my anxiousness skyrocketed.“So you’ve agreed to train?” My mother asked, her tone laced with surprise.I held myself from rolling my eyes. “Did I have a choice in the first place?” I retorted.“The pack house is the best and the safest,” she said, her mood seemed to have been elevated. “You could even get the chance to be trained by the Alpha’s mother. Then maybe you could transform into your wolf form” she continued, the last part came out in a whisper.“Not again” I groaned in annoyance. “ do we have to do this all the time?” I stomped.“You need your wolf Bri,” she persuaded.“No I don’t,” I said, the volume of my voice going higher as I took a step back. “Why can’t you see me for who I am instead of sending me off to some combat training? I can’t shift... Wolf wolf wolf, You all make me so sick. I don’t need my wolf,” I yelled.“Then you’re nothing more than a human,” my mother y

You have to admit, it’s never boring” Mary added, her voice laced with sarcasm.I groaned. “They are driving me nuts, Mary. Just because my brother now has his wolf, my father suddenly decided it would be better for me to train at the pack house?” I complainedMary tried to offer a reassuring smile. “Your father might just be trying to push you to your full potential” she tried to reason with me.“Full potential?” I repeated, my voice rising. “You know as well as I do that people training at the pack house all have their wolves already. They are not struggling like I am” I said, devastated.“This whole thing is weird” Mary’s voice became low. “Do you think he told your father to make you train at the pack house?” Mary’s question sounded more like she was talking to herself.“I doub

The metallic letters gleamed in the sunlight as my mind clouded with a sense of unease.I glanced back, my anxiety taking the better of me.The line was longer than I expected, I guess I wasn’t the only one training. The realization only added to my unease. I gripped my gate pass and training form firmly, trying to keep the papers from rustling too much.“Brianne Preston..”I almost jumped when I suddenly heard my name. Without hesitating or wasting any time, I rushed forward.The chubby lady scrutinized my forms, her eyes scanning through the pages with curiosity. Then she looked up at me, her gaze navigating my face and body with a discerning intensity. I felt a slight flutter in my chest as she seemed to take in every detail, her expression unreadable. Her eyes lingered on my face as if searching for something. I straightened my po

    I could still hear Mary’s voice in my head, teasing me about how I owed her a proper date. It played on repeat as I sat on the couch, flipping through ideas for something special. I wasn’t the type to go all out—fancy dates and grand gestures weren’t really my thing—but for Mary, I wanted this to feel different. She deserved different.The past few days in the clinic had been torture, not because of the pain, but because I couldn’t stop thinking about her. The memory of her hand in mine, the way her cheeks flushed when I’d asked her to be my girlfriend, was burned into my mind. She’d told me to wait, to get better first, but that didn’t stop me from imagining her answer.With a plan finally forming in my head, I grabbed my phone and sent her a quick text.Me: Don’t forget, Friday night. Dress fancy.Her reply came almost instantly:Mary: It better be worth it.I laughed under my breath, shaking my head. She always knew how to keep me on my toes.*** Friday rolled around faster than I

    *MARY'S POV*I stood outside Josh’s room in the clinic, the door slightly ajar. It had been two days since the accident, and though his wounds were healing, I still couldn’t shake the image of him lying unconscious and bloodied. I’d barely slept since Brianne called me with the news. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw him in that state.The sound of his voice pulled me from my thoughts.“Mary, you planning to just stand there, or are you coming in?”I pushed the door open, trying to mask the relief that flooded through me at seeing him awake and smirking. Typical Josh—always ready with a grin, even when he was banged up.“How long were you watching me?” I asked, stepping in and closing the door behind me.“Long enough to see you pacing like a worried mom,” he teased, his voice hoarse but warm.I rolled my eyes, pulling the chair closer to his bed. “You’re insufferable, you know that?”“And yet, here you are.”I couldn’t argue with that.*** *JOSH'S POV*Mary looked tired, like she ha

    *MARY'S POV*Walking into the room, I felt my chest tighten at the sight of him. Josh was lying on the bed, his face pale, his breathing steady but shallow. Bandages covered his arms and chest, and there was a faint bruise along his jawline.I pulled up a chair beside his bed, my eyes welling up with tears. “You idiot,” I muttered, my voice shaking. “Why did you have to be so reckless?”He didn’t respond, of course. He was unconscious, his body working overtime to heal itself. I reached out, hesitating for a moment before taking his hand in mine.“You’re going to be fine,” I whispered, more to myself than to him. “You have to be. I’m not done yelling at you yet.”*** Hours passed, though it felt like days. Brianne came in to check on me a few times, offering food or water, but I couldn’t bring myself to leave Josh’s side.As the first rays of dawn filtered through the window, I felt a slight movement in his hand. My heart leaped, and I leaned forward.“Josh?” I whispered, my voice ba

But with Josh, it felt different. There was a connection, something deeper that I couldn’t quite put into words. And that scared me.“Do you think I’m falling for him, Mr. Fluffy?” I whispered. The teddy bear, of course, didn’t respond, but I could almost imagine him giving me a knowing look.I laughed softly, shaking my head. “No, no, no. This is just… it’s a phase. A momentary lapse in judgment. I’ll get over it. I mean, it’s Josh. He’s annoying and cocky and—”My phone buzzed on the nightstand, cutting off my train of thought. I reached over to grab it, my heart skipping a beat when I saw his name on the screen.Josh: Hope you’re not overthinking last night. I know I’m irresistible, but try to focus on other things.I rolled my eyes, though I couldn’t help the smile that tugged at my lips.Me: You wish. I’m pe

    *JOSH'S POV*Mary stirred slightly, her lashes fluttering against her cheeks before her eyes opened. The sunlight caught her hair, making it shine in soft waves, and for a moment, I just stared. She blinked a few times, her gaze landing on me, and a sleepy smile curved her lips.“Morning,” she murmured, her voice husky from sleep.“Morning,” I replied, leaning against the headboard, my arms crossed casually. “You’re not a morning person, are you?”She stretched, groaning softly as she did. “Not in the slightest. You’re lucky you’re cute, or I’d complain about how bright it is in here.”I smirked. “Noted. Next time, I’ll keep the blinds closed.”Her head tilted, a mischievous glint in her eyes. “Next time, huh?”“Well, that depends,” I said, my tone teasing. “Do I get a ‘next time,’ or was this a one-time deal?”Mary propped herself up on one elbow, her expression playfully stern. “Don’t fish for compliments this early, Josh. It’s too much effort.”I laughed, the sound filling the room

    *JOSH'S POV*We walked back to the car in a comfortable silence, the sound of the waves fading behind us. Mary’s steps were light, her head tilted slightly as she took in the surroundings. I couldn’t help but watch her, admiring the way the wind played with her hair and how her eyes seemed to hold a certain spark.When we reached the car, she turned to me, crossing her arms with a mock-serious expression. “So, Mr. Beta-Hybrid, what’s next on this grand plan of yours?”I smirked, opening the passenger door for her. “You’ll have to wait and see.”She raised an eyebrow, sliding into the seat. “You’re enjoying this way too much, aren’t you?”“Absolutely,” I said with a grin before shutting the door and walking around to the driver’s side.As I started the engine, the warmth of the moment lingered. The drive back was quiet at first, the soft hum of the car filling the air. I could feel Mary glancing at me every now and then, her curiosity practically radiating.Finally, she broke the silen

    *JOSH'S POV*“After I was born, there was a lot of fear about what it would mean to have a half-human wolf in the pack. The elders were worried about what people would say, how they’d react. Jordyn’s mother—well, she was the one who stepped in. She wanted to protect me from the inevitable gossip and judgment.”Mary’s eyes widened. “So, she just… hid it?”“Sort of,” I said, leaning forward to rest my elbows on my knees. “She went to a soothsayer. Someone with strong abilities. They found a way to mask the hybrid part of me. That’s why no one’s ever been able to tell I’m different. No one can smell it or sense it. As far as anyone in the pack is concerned, I’m just a regular beta.”“That’s… incredible,” Mary whispered, her voice filled with amazement. “But why? Why go to all that trouble?”I sighed, running a hand through my hair. “Because being a hybrid in the wolf world isn’t easy. Humans and wolves… they’re not supposed to mix. If people knew, there’d be questions, doubts about my lo

    *JOSH'S POV*“Actually… there’s something else you should know,” I said, swinging my hands in a playful manner as we strolled across the beach. The breeze was gentle, the sun starting to dip lower, casting a golden glow across the waves. We walked in comfortable silence, but I could feel the weight of what I needed to share building inside me.Mary glanced at me, her curiosity piqued. “Oh? More secrets, huh? You’re full of surprises.”I chuckled, though this was heavier than the usual banter. “Yeah, and this one’s… kind of a big deal.”Her teasing smile faltered slightly, but she stayed lighthearted. “Don’t tell me you’re some sort of vampire-werewolf hybrid. ‘Cause that’s too much for me to handle today.”I laughed, though her joke hit closer to the truth than she knew. “Not quite that dramatic, but close.”We eventually found a shaded spot under a large tree near the shoreline. The wind rustled the leaves, offering a quiet retreat from the rest of the world. I sat down on the sand,

    *JOSH’S POV*I reached the pack house and headed straight to Jordyn’s office. He was already behind his desk, looking over a set of documents when I walked in.“Morning,” I said, stepping inside and closing the door behind me.Jordyn glanced up, raising an eyebrow. “You seem in a good mood.”I shrugged, trying to play it off. “Just a good night, I guess.”He didn’t push for details, which was probably for the best. I wasn’t sure I was ready to explain why I couldn’t stop grinning like an idiot. Instead, he handed me a file, the lightness in the air quickly replaced by the seriousness of pack duties.“Here,” he said. “Take a look. We’ve had a few reports of rogue wolves in the north, near the river. We need to adjust the patrols in that area, make sure we’ve got enough coverage.”I nodded, flipping through the papers, but the focus I usually had for work was a little off today. No matter how hard I tried to concentrate, my thoughts kept drifting back to Mary.Jordyn must’ve noticed bec
