*BRIANNE’S POV*

We got to the venue of the event after a scenic drive of almost an hour.

The driver Jordyn sent was incredibly courteous and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort during the journey. He even offered to play any song of our choice, and Mary enthusiastically took him up on the offer. She blasted the speakers with her favorite tunes, singing along at the top of her lungs.

As we approached the entrance, the driver assistively opened the door and helped us out of the car. We stepped onto the red carpet like celebrities.

The venue was swarming with people, all dressed to impress.

Beautiful ladies in stunning gowns and their dashing partners in sleek tuxedos, sipping cocktails and mingling.

The atmosphere was electric, filled with excitement and anticipation.

Mary grasped my hand, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “Wow, this is quite the event!” She exclaimed.

I nodded in agreement, taking in the opulent décor and lively ambiance. We made our way through the crowd, ex

    *BRIANNE’S POV*I felt my cheeks flush, my pulse racing with excitement. I couldn’t help but be drawn to him, my body swaying towards his as if magnetized.Just then, in a moment that felt like eternity, Jordyn’s lips brushed against mine. Soft, gentle, and yet, electrifying. I felt a jolt of pleasure run through me, my heart soaring as our lips moved in perfect sync.The world around us melted away, leaving only the two of us, lost in the magic of our kiss. I felt like I was floating on air, my senses heightened as I savored the taste of his lips.Jordyn’s arms wrapped around me, pulling me closer as our kiss deepened. I felt his heart beating against mine, our feelings pulsing through every fiber of our being. But our intimate moment was suddenly interrupted by a voice from outside.“Alpha,” somebody called out, their tone urgent.We broke our kiss, startled, and Jordyn’s eyes furrowed. “Yes?” He answered, his deep voice firm but polite.“The ceremony is about to start. You need to

    *JORDYN’S POV*I managed to escape from the clutches of my mother and some unwanted guests, seeking refuge in the hallway asI was desperate for a drink.As I walked, I heard my mother’s voice behind me, dripping with false sweetness.“Jordyn,” she called out, her voice echoing in the empty hallway.I stopped dead in my tracks, a sigh of frustration escaping my lips as a familiar feeling of annoyance seeped through my veins. I knew exactly where this was going.“Mother,” I answered, my voice firm and detached.She smiled, her entire set of teeth gleaming in the dim light of the hallway. “What do you think about the minister’s daughter?” She asked, her eyes sparkling with a knowing glint.The question sounded awkward, but I already knew where she was getting at. My mother had been trying to set me up with the minister’s daughter for months, and I had made it clear that I wasn’t interested.“Mother, stop this act of madness!” I warned, my voice stern and absolute. “I have told you befor

    *BRIANNE’S POV*I stood frozen in shock. What had Jordyn just done? Why did he announce that publicly? I was dumbfounded, my thoughts raced with questions.“Oh my God,” I heard Janette’s low exclamation beside me, her voice was filled with surprise.We decided to take things slow, to get to know each other better before making any big decisions. So why did he come up here to announce that he’s found his mate? I felt like I had been punched in the gut, my breath knocked out of me.My eyes drifted to the girl who had been chatting with him, and she looked just as surprised as I was. Her eyes were wide with shock and her mouth hung open in disbelief.I was relieved that Jordyn hadn’t said who his mate was, I wasn’t ready for any form of attention.“I can’t believe he just did that!” Janette exclaimed. “My brother is something else.”We watched him walk off the stage like a rockstar, a confident swagger in his step. He was clearly proud of what he had just done, and I couldn’t help but f

    *BRIANNE’S POV*I sat on my bed, staring at the piles of clothes and wondering how the hell I was going to sort through them all. Just as I was about to start, I heard a knock on my door.“Come in,” I answered, expecting it to be my mom with another load of laundry. The door knob pushed slowly and my mom peeled through the tiny space.“You want to talk?” She asked lowly.I was not ready for another sermon on how to go about my own life.“You can come in,” I said, my voice void of any emotion.My mom walked slowly to my bed and sat right next to me. “So…” she started.“I heard the Alpha announced that he now has a mate at the full moon ceremony yesterday,” she said.I nodded, trying to act unconcerned.“Was he talking about you?” She suddenly askedI looked at her. I was going to deny it point blank because I was not in for any form of negative energy advice. But the soft look in her eyes made me stop for a second. She looked genuinely curious and concerned that I didn’t know when I n

    *BRIANNE’S POV*“Nice fight, Brianne.” The instructor’s voice sounded in the arena.I grinned from ear to ear feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment as I walked away from my defeated opponent.I had been training hard, and it was paying off. My skills were improving with each passing day, and I could feel the difference in my movements, my reflexes, and my overall confidence.I took a seat and reached for my water bottle, taking a long gulp to quench my parched throat. The cool liquid soothed my dry mouth and throat, and I closed my eyes, savoring the moment.But as I opened my eyes and stared at my phone, my excitement quickly turned to disappointment. There were no texts, no missed calls. Nothing. I had been waiting for Jordyn to say something after the full moon ceremony, but he had been awfully quiet. Too quiet.A knot formed in my stomach as I felt a wave of worry. Why hadn’t he texted or called? Was everything okay?I tried to push the thoughts aside, focusing on my trainin

    *JORDYN’S POV*“Mother! What is the meaning of this nonsense?” I thundered, my voice echoing vehemently.My mother turned to face me, her eyes burning with a spiteful intensity that made my blood boil.“She’s not fit to be the Luna of this pack, Jordyn,” she spat. “Why can’t you see that?”My face twisted in anger, my heart almost ripping in rage. “Is that why you met with her to threaten her?” I demanded, my voice low and menacing.My mother moved a step closer. “And I’ll do it again if I have to.” She sneered. “You have to wake up, Jordyn. Being the Luna of this pack is not child’s play, and it can’t simply be bestowed on someone like her.” She said.I was running out of patience, her words were a slap in the face, and I felt my anger surge out of control. “How dare you?” I growled, my voice tight with rage. “You have no right to interfere in my relationship or question Bri’s worthiness as my Luna.”My mother’s expression turned cold and calculating. “I have every right,” she said.

    *BRIANNE’S POV*“I already knew the battle I signed up for the day I decided to become your girlfriend,” I said, my voice steady and resolute. “I’ll try hard and prove to everyone that I am not just a wolfless omega,” My determination was evident and I could see the tension in Jordyn’s body begin to ease.He took a deep breath, his shoulders relaxing as he gazed at me. “I knew you’d understand,” He said, his voice full and throaty.I smiled. I had been skeptical and unable to decide after his mother’s warning. But hearing from him just made me even more determined. I’m going to join him in the fight, and we will fight for what we share.I suddenly remembered something— Something I’d wanted to ask him for the past few days.“So, are you going to talk about what you did at the full moon ceremony?” I asked, my eyebrows raised playfully. “The public announcement. Really?”Jordyn chuckled softly, his eyes crinkling at the corner. “ I was wondering when you’d bring that up,” He said, his v

    *BRIANNE’S POV*I sat in my room, silently brushing my hair, lost in thought.It’s funny how I used to love staying in the pack house, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of pack life. But now, I find myself skedaddling my way home with any break I get. Staying away from the pack house as much as possible is probably for the best.As I brushed my hair, my mind wandered off to how much my life had changed since I met Jordyn. I used to be so carefree, but now, it felt like I was constantly on edge.My phone suddenly vibrated to life, the screen illuminating with a text from Jordyn.I excitedly picked it up and swiped the screen to see what he had sent.“Will pick you up later. Dress up, we’re going on a date.” The text read.I grimaced at the text. He always seemed like a different person over text. His messages were always so dry, lacking the warmth and affection that he showed in person. It was as if he was a completely different person when he’s typing away on his phone.Well, I was

Will you be my girlfriend?”Mary blinked, her expression shifting from surprise to something softer, more tender. And then she laughed, shaking her head.“You really went all out for this, didn’t you?” she said, her voice thick with emotion.“Is that a yes?” I asked, still kneeling.She stepped closer, pulling me to my feet and into her arms. “Yes, you idiot. Of course, it’s a yes.”Relief and joy washed over me as I held her, the weight of anticipation lifting from my shoulders.“But,” she added, pulling back slightly, her lips curving into a smirk, “you didn’t have to go this big just to ask me to be your girlfriend.”I grinned. “I wanted to make sure you couldn’t say no.”“Like I ever could,” she whispered, leaning up to press her lips to mine.The kiss was soft, lingering, and full of p

    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

    *MARY'S POV*I groaned again, burying my face in the pillow. “Why am I like this? Why can’t I just enjoy it and move on?”It wasn’t like I hadn’t been with other guys before. 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,
