Lovette POVI sat by Ralph’s bedside, tears streaming down my face as I held his hand tightly. “I’m so sorry, Ralph”, I whispered. “This is all my fault. I should have never put you in danger like that. The creature wouldn’t have attacked you if I hadn't been there. You wouldn’t be lying here now, so sick and hurt.”His injury had worsened and showed no sign of healing. I was worried and scared. If I had known this was going to happen I wouldn’t have suggested we went for a walk.Ralph reached out and grabbed my hand. “Don’t blame yourself. It’s not your fault. I knew the risks when I decided to save you. I would do it again in a heartbeat to protect you .”“But you’re getting worse and worse. I can’t stand to see you like this,” I replied, my voice trembling.“I’ll be fine. I just need some time to heal,” Ralph said, but the effort of speaking seemed to take a lot out of him.“That is exactly my fear, you haven’t healed. What’s wrong? You have the ability to heal, so why isn’t it wor
Lovette POVLuna Celeste walked in, her heels clicking to the ground. She sat down next to the Alpha Derek and nodded, acknowledging the presence of those in the room."Lovette here just escaped the hands of a wolf-like creature that almost killed her. If I hadn't gotten there in time she would have been a victim," Gabriel said to Celeste."And by wolf-like creature you mean?" Celeste asked, urging him to expatiate more."It doesn't look like a regular wolf. It was huge and had features that resembled those of a demon.""Oh I see. Was it the same creature you said attacked Ralph?" She turned to ask me"Yes it's the same one."Gabriel looked at me, raising one of his eyebrows. He didn't know about the previous attack.Celeste stood before the group, her eyes scanning each of our faces as she spoke. "Listen, everyone. I know what you're all thinking, that this creature was just an ordinary wolf. But I can assure you, it was not. And that is why it was able to inflict such damage on Ralp
Ralph POVI slowly opened my eyes, feeling groggy and disoriented. My head was pounding and my body ached, but I couldn't remember why. I closed my eyes again, trying to shake the fog from my mind. Suddenly, a dream flooded back to me. I was losing Lovette, my love. She was slipping away from me, no matter how hard I tried to hold on. I shouted her name, my heart racing with fear and panic.But when I opened my eyes again, I realized that it was just a dream. As I lay on the bed, the thought of losing her fills me with a sense of dread and I can't shake it off even though I know it was just a dream. I slowly opened the door to my room and stepped out into the hallway. My body was still weak from my injury, but I could feel it slowly returning to its normal state. I had been in that room for what felt like an eternity, and I was eager to see what the others were up to.I slowly made my way down the stairs. As I reached the bottom I could hear laughter and conversations coming from the
Lovette POVI was in the middle of getting out of the shower when I heard the window open. I threw on a towel and ran to the bedroom, not even thinking that I was completely naked.As soon as I saw Ralph, I threw myself into his arms, and we started making out like crazy. “I missed you so much,” I said between kisses.“I missed you too,” Ralph replied, his hands roaming over my wet skin.It wasn’t until we broke apart that I realized I was still naked underneath the towel and quickly stepped back, blushing. I started hitting him playfully with a pillow.“Hey! What was that for?” Ralph laughed.“I’m still in my towel! You can’t just kiss me like that when I’m not dressed,” I exclaimed, trying to hide my embarrassment.“Are you kidding me? You’re the most beautiful woman on earth, even when you’re naked,” Ralph said, his eyes sparkling with adoration.I couldn’t help but laugh, “You’re such a charmer, Ralph. But you still can’t kiss me like that when I’m not dressed.”“I’ll make sure to
Gabriel’s POVI sat at the desk in my room, picking at the food Lovette had brought me. The food tasted bland in my mouth. I couldn’t help but feel aroused as I remembered how she had felt in my arms earlier. I wanted more of her, but she had pushed me away. I must admit that it hurt a little. I had always been drawn to her since we exchanged phones, but I never acted on it. I didn’t want to force her into anything, but I was tired of waiting.As I ate, fork in hand, I couldn’t shake off the fantasy of her. The way her long hair cascaded over her shoulders and the way her legs looked in her tight jeans. I couldn’t help but imagine them spreading open before me, inviting me in.But then, reality hit me like a ton of bricks. I remembered the deal she had made with me and how it involved seeing Ralph every damn day until we did something about the creature.I had noticed Ralph liked her so much the day I taunted him on purpose at the pack house. I suspected they were close the day I saw
Lovette POVI was in Neo's room with Ralph, he was still catching his breath after the intense training session that had just been interrupted by Luna Celeste's sudden appearance. I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride as I looked over at Ralph. Even though he wasn't an Alpha, he had managed to beat Gabriel during the training."Nice work out there, Ralph," I said, clapping him on the back."Thanks," Ralph replied, a wide grin spreading across his face. "I can't believe I beat Gabriel.""I can," I said, smiling. "You've been putting in the work, and it's paying off. You're becoming a force to be reckoned with."Ralph's smile faltered a bit. "I'm not an Alpha, though," he said, his voice tinged with uncertainty."That doesn't matter," I said, looking him in the eye. "You don't have to be an Alpha to be a great fighter. You're strong in your way, and that's what counts."Ralph nodded, looking a bit more confident. "Thanks, I needed to hear that," he said.We sat in silence for a mome
Ralph POVLovette stormed out of the living room, tears streaming down her face. I knew she was going to her room to cry, and I couldn't help but blame Gabriel for this whole situation. If he hadn't been so dead set on rebuking her, I never would have gotten angry and ended up in a face-down with him. The guilt weighed heavily on me as I thought about how I had put her in this position.“All thanks to you, you have succeeded in making someone cry” I accused him"Me? Maybe if you hadn’t jumped in from nowhere demanding for her to be treated right!" Gabriel retorted, his voice rising in volume."I didn't jump in from nowhere," I shot back, my own anger rising. “I had been listening to you yelling at her about making mistakes. What did you expect me to do? Sit back and let you reprimand her?”“I was just trying to help. Next time observe before you jump into conclusions” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I glared at Gabriel, fuming with anger. Just as we were about to come to blo
Lovette POVNow everything had been discussed between Ralph, Celeste and I and now we just had to present the matter to Gabriel and for some reason I already knew what his answer would be,"No, this is completely reckless, I will not allow it." He quickly dismissed our plan and my shoulders slumped, Celeste rolled her eyes and approached him with all sultriness in the world,"But Gabriel, this is our only chance to catch this thing. If we do not then it would keep attacking Lovette and we might not be there to defend her all the time." She states a good reason as she rubbed his head but he growled at her and she cheekily took her hand off his head, "do not be upset, but this is the only way to put an end to this problem once and for all.""And why does she need to be the bait? Why don't we use Ralph?" He pointed at my boyfriend and I couldn't stop the snicker that escaped my lips,"Excuse me?" Ralph cocked his brow at Gabriel, he was irritated by his statement, "and why don't we use y
Lovette’s POVI had noticed that Gabriel was always around Celeste. At first, I brushed it off, thinking that he was just being friendly. But as the days went by, I couldn't shake off the feeling that there was something more to it.So, I decided to ask him about it."Hey, Gabriel," I said, leaning over to him. "I've noticed that you're always around Celeste. Is there something going on between you two?"Gabriel didn't give me a direct answer. He just smiled and said, "Why do you ask?"I felt a pang of frustration. I had hoped for a straight answer. But before I could say anything, Ralph came up to me and took me away."Lovette, my love," he said, hugging me. "I've missed you. What were you and Gabriel talking about?"I hesitated for a moment but then decided to tell Ralph what was on my mind. "I was just asking Gabriel about Celeste. He's always around her, and I can't help but wonder if there's something going on between them."“I see. But don't worry about it, babe. I'm sure there'
Gabriel’s POVI was a mess. I couldn't bear to see Celeste like this. I paced back and forth in front of her room, my heart beating frantically in my chest. I couldn't focus on anything else, couldn't think of anything else. Every minute that passed felt like an eternity.Nyx had taken her inside the room to perform some healing on her. And I was waiting patiently for the outcome.Every time I passed by the door, I peeked inside, hoping to see some sign of improvement. But each time, it was the same. Celeste lying there, unmoving, while Nyx attended to her.All I could do was wait and pray.Finally, after what felt like hours, the door opened and Nyx emerged from the room, I practically ran towards her. "How is she? Is she going to be okay?" I asked, my voice shaking with fear and desperation.Nyx looked up at me, and her expression was blank. For a moment, I couldn't read her face, and then she spoke, her voice devoid of emotion. "I'm sorry, Gabriel. Celeste didn't make it. She's gon
Lovette’s POVI stumbled backward as Vera lunged at me, her eyes filled with a terrifying hunger. I knew I was no match for her, but I couldn't give up without a fight.I tried to dodge her attacks, but she was too fast, too strong. She grabbed hold of my shirt, and I felt her claws digging into my skin.Where the hell was Gabriel when I needed him?Just when I thought that all hope was lost and I was about to face certain doom, Nyx appeared out of nowhere, her body beginning to contort and shift into a wolf.Vera growled out loud, recognizing Nyx to be her sister. For a moment, I thought Vera was going to back down and give up fighting. But I thought wrongVera was also transforming, her body twisting and convulsing until she too had taken on the shape of a massive wolf.The two of them began to circle each other, growling and snarling in a display of primal aggression. Even though I knew they were once sisters, it was clear that they were now enemies, locked in a deadly struggle th
Gabriel’s POVI stood at the edge of the clearing, watching my pack as they played and hunted. They moved with grace and precision that spoke to their strength and skill. I could feel the pride swell within me, and I knew that it was a feeling that was shared by the rest of the pack. We were a family, and we were growing stronger and healthier every day.Being an alpha wasn't easy, but it was a responsibility that I took seriously.As I turned to leave, I saw Neo approaching me with a frown on his face. As he walked closer, his frown deepened, and I knew something was bothering him. Neo was always talking about his girlfriend, Nyx. He would tell anyone who would listen about how amazing she was and how lucky he felt to have her in his life. But as time went on, it became clear that Neo wasn't just in love with Nyx – he was lovesick for her.Every time Nyx wasn't around, Neo's mood would darken. He would become quiet and withdrawn, lost in his thoughts. He would spend hours staring of
Lovette’s POVI couldn't believe how quickly the school year had gone by. I had been leading the class, acing every test, and putting in countless hours of studying. But all of that hard work was overshadowed by the fear that had gripped our school.It had started innocently enough. A few students were absent on the first day of school, but we all assumed they were just late enrollees. But as the weeks went on, more and more students went missing. It was as if they had vanished into thin air.At first, I tried not to think too much about it. I had my studies to focus on, after all. But the fear and paranoia that was spreading throughout the school were palpable. I could see it in the eyes of my classmates, in the way they moved through the halls, constantly looking over their shoulders.I tried to rationalize it, to come up with some sort of explanation. Maybe they had all transferred to another school, or maybe they had run away from home. But deep down, I knew something was seriousl
Lovette’s POVThat evening, I spent some time with Connor and Tasha. We all sat in the backyard, under the stars, with music playing softly in the background. It was bittersweet, knowing that I was leaving the next day, but also grateful for the time we had together.Connor had prepared my favorite meal, and we all shared stories and laughed together. I knew that I would miss them dearly.As we settled into the comfortable chairs in the backyard, the warm breeze and soft music creating a peaceful atmosphere, Connor asked me how I felt about resuming senior year in high school.I took a deep breath and hesitated for a moment, not entirely sure how to express the mix of emotions I felt about returning to school. "Honestly, it's a bit overwhelming to think about. I mean, I'm excited to see my friends again and finish what I started, but at the same time, I'm nervous about the workload and the pressure of college applications."Connor nodded thoughtfully, his eyes showing understanding. "
Ralph’s POVI couldn't believe it. Lovette had said yes. My heart was bursting with joy as I drove down the street with a silly grin on my face. It was like the sun was shining brighter and the world was a more beautiful place.I was just dying to get home and tell everyone the news. I felt like shouting it from the rooftops. My parents and siblings. They were all going to be so happy for us.I couldn't help but replay the moment Lovette said yes over and over in my mind.Who would have thought that the fake wedding would have worked in my favor? As we drove down the winding road, I turned to Lovette and told her about my vision for our future family. I wanted a simple life, far away from the city, in a small village where everyone knew each other's names and families were close.I shared with her my dreams of having a home filled with love and laughter, where our children could grow up surrounded by nature and the beauty of the outdoors. I wanted them to have the kind of childhood t
Gabriel’s POVAs I stood at the altar, my heart pounding in my chest, I couldn't believe that this moment had finally arrived.My dream was coming true, I would be married to Lovette and no one would be able to take her away from me.The atmosphere was electric with anticipation as the priest delivered his final words. My heart was pounding in my chest as I turned to face my beautiful bride, the love of my life, standing before me in all her radiance. As we moved closer to each other, I could feel the warmth of her hand in mine and the sweet scent of her perfume.The priest's words echoed in my mind, "You may now kiss the bride," and I leaned in to bestow upon her the most passionate kiss I had ever given in my life. In that moment, nothing else existed in the world except her and me, lost in the overwhelming love that we shared.As we kissed, I could feel her lips move in perfect harmony with mine, and the energy of the moment was palpable. Just as I had expected, the lights suddenly
Ralph’s povAfter I lunged at Gabriel, I knew I had messed up. I was angry and frustrated, and I took it out on him. I shouldn't have done that, and I regretted it immediately.But then Gabriel said something that stopped me in my tracks. Lovette was his fiance? I couldn't believe it. It had to be a lie. But the look on Gabriel's face told me otherwise.I turned to her, hoping she would set the record straight. She did not deny what Gabriel saidBut then Gabriel spoke again, his words cutting through the air like a knife. Lovette was his fiance, and they were getting married soon.“I can't believe you attacked him like that,” Lovette said, her voice filled with fury. She turned to Gabriel “I'm so sorry, Gabriel”Gabriel just shrugged it off, but Lovette was not willing to let it go."No, it's not okay. He had no right to put his hands on you like that”, she said, her voice rising.I was at a loss for words. My girlfriend was defending someone she knew I despised. I glanced at Gabriel,
