Lovette’s POVI sat on the couch, my cheeks hurting from smiling so much. My day had been a complete blast and for once, I had managed to forget all about the events that had transpired with my dad. Going out with friends was just what I needed to forget all my worries.As I basked in the warm afterglow of a fun-filled day, the sound of the front door opening brought me back to reality. My mother walked in, carrying a big brown bag filled with the fragrant aroma of her favorite Chinese takeout."Hey sweetie, I thought you could use a break from cooking, so I brought us some dinner," My mom said as she set the food on the coffee table.I jumped off the couch, giving her a hug. "Thanks, Mom. This is exactly what I needed.""So, how was your day?" My mom asked as she began to unpack the containers of food."It was amazing! I had so much fun," I replied, still beaming from ear to ear. "After I was done shopping, I went to this fancy restaurant, then went to the amusement park. It was jus
Ralph’s POVI had overheard my dad talking about some mission and mother was telling him not to go but when I gave it a good thought, I needed something to clear my head and this could be the perfect opportunity."Dad, you said the Alpha needs someone who can really do this right?" My brothers shot a glare at me and I turned to Connor, he had overheard my call with Lovette and he gave me a sad look, but it wasn't enough to move me, "I can do it.""And you will not." My mom closed the discussion but I ignored her and faced my dad straight on, "Ralph!!" She was shocked at my audacity."And what makes you think that you can go on this and come back alive?" My dad arched his brow at me, and I took a deep breath,"You've always wants me to be a batter wolf so this is my opportunity to prove it to you that I'm already more than you ever wanted me to be." I felt that I had gotten more strength the moment I fell in love with Lovette but now I'm completely driven by hate, not for her, but for t
Lovette POV“Why did you come? You should have stayed with Gabriel." Ralph’s words kept echoing in my ears. I waited for him and prayed that he would come back home safe and sound. I wouldn’t have been able to forgive myself if something terrible had happened to him. I was elated when I saw he had returned but he didn’t seem too happy to see me. Did he not want to have anything to do with me again?He had slammed the door to his room so loud that it echoed through the house like a clap of thunder. I thought of going to beg him in case he was still mad at me. Connor looked at me pitifully and simply shrugged. I slowly made my way up the stairs, my heart pounding in my chest. I had no idea what I was going to say to him, but I knew I had to try. I couldn't bear the thought of him being mad at me for any longer.As I approached his door, I could hear the muffled sounds of him pacing back and forth inside. I took a deep breath, bracing myself for what was to come.I gently knocked on
Gabriel’s POVI was pissed, pacing back and forth in anger. I had called Lovette but instead of her sweet voice, I was greeted by Ralph's gruff tone. He had warned me to stay away from his girl and told me they were at the fair having the fun of their life.She's her own person and she can make her own decisions. She is not his.It was his audacity for me. Was he trying to get back at me for answering the phone when he tried to call Lovette?I’ve been so angry and frustrated lately, the fight with Neo this week and now he was nowhere to be seen and Lovette spending all her time with that idiot she called a boyfriend.This week had not been the best for me, and I needed to get away from it all.I got into my car and started the engine, feeling a sense of liberation as I started my long drive. The road stretched out before me, and I let the wind blow through my hair.As I drove, I let my mind wander and began to imagine having Lovette all to myself. I pictured our future together, trav
Lovette’s POV"Ralph…what do you think would be the best way to capture these bandits?" I asked my boyfriend and he had the dirtiest grin on his face and it scared me a little.“We just got on the mission and you're actually thinking about the mission." He confused me with his statement, and I shrugged my shoulders"I mean, isn't that what we are supposed to be doing?" We were walking on a trail and we were getting closer to the town, we had just highlighted from a bus and we were with a little luggage, he was carrying of course. Treating me like the princess that I was."That's against the code, when we go on missions, we are allowed to derail before we actually start the mission." He snickered uncontrollably and it transferred to me, now I understood him. We have fun first before we actually start the mission."As long as I'm with you, I'm more than happy with it." I clung to his arm and he smiled at me sheepishly, "why are you giving me that look?" I almost poked his eye"Did anyon
Lovette POVI watched Ralph and Gabriel beat each other senseless. They fought fiercely, their snarls and growls filling the air as their bodies collided in a blur of fur and muscle.They were fighting for me, for my attention"Stop! Please stop!" I cried, but my voice was lost in the chaos.I felt sick to my stomach. This was not what I had wanted.Just then, Alpha Finn strode over, a scowl on his face. He stood in front of me, blocking my view of the fight.“This is all your fault, Lovette," he growled. "These boys, they're acting like reckless fools because of you. They're putting themselves in danger for your sake."My heart sank as I realized that Alpha Finn was blaming me for the recklessness of the boys. I had never intended for anything like this to happen, but now, it was too late.I shook my head, my voice trembling with emotion. "I never asked for this. I never wanted them to hurt themselves."“It is still your fault!" Alpha Finn yelled, his voice booming with rage. "These
Lovette POV“Where are you coming from?” Ralph asked me arching his right eyebrow. I shifted nervously under his gaze.“Just out for a walk," I said, trying to sound casual.He frowned, clearly not buying it. "Really? It's nearly midnight and you're out for a walk?"I thought of a lie to say but none was coming to mind. It was going to be messy if I told him Gabriel and I were together. “ Did you try to look for me?” I thought of avoiding the question by asking him another one.“Answer mine first. Where are you coming from?” “I couldn't sleep," I said, trying to sound casual.He took a step closer to me, his eyes studying my face intently. "Are you sure that's all?"I nodded. “So why can I smell Gabriel’s scent from you? He sniffed me, his nostrils flaring as he took in the scent of Gabriel Shit! That’s because we hugged for a long time.I shifted uneasily “well, Gabriel and I were together this evening, and that’s only because he wanted to apologize for the fight between you two”
Ralph POVIt all happened in slow motion. I was standing in front of Lovette, trying to look for another reason why Connor should have stopped Lovette from going out to see Gabriel. But before I could even finish my sentence, her hand shot out and connected with my cheek. The sound echoed through the room and I could feel the sting spreading across my face. I raised my hands to my cheeks, rubbing them in disbelief. Lovette had never been physical with me before, and I was taken aback by the sudden violence.Time seemed to slow down as I tried to process what had just happened. I couldn't believe that Lovette was capable of slapping me.“I'm sick and tired of this drama! This back and forth” she screamed.“I have my own freedom also and can see whoever I want to see” her voice echoing through the room.“I’m done with you and your controlling behavior. I’m done with your jealousy and your insecurities. I’m just done,” she continued, her eyes welling up with tears.I stood there, staring
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,
