“ What is your problem?” I asked him the moment we got to my room. “ Why don't you want me to go?”
“ Because it is a wild party. I won't even go if it is possible.”“ Come on Dameon, I will be with Lia the whole time. Don't you trust me?”“ It's not you. It is the guys that will be there I don't trust,” his voice raises slightly.“ I'm not going to make the same mistake as with Felix if that's what you are thinking.”“ you did not make a mistake– that bastard took advantage of the situation,” he says. “How do you know that the guys there won't try the same thing.”“ Look, I'm going whether you like it or not. And if you are so worried, then come with us!”“ Fine, I will,” he replied stubbornly, his jaws clenched.With that settled, he left the room without another word. I took a few minutes to calm myself.I went back downstairs to get Lia, who I found Tristen ranting about how technology has ruined society. I rescued her, and when we finally gotDameon went ahead of us and was already there, so I had not seen him since our confrontation earlier. I was kind of nervous to see him, being dressed up and all. When we arrived, I took in everything. There were lights up and people everywhere. It was much more packed than I thought it would be. People were playing drinking games, playing ping pong, smoking, fighting, and gathering around the huge bonfire in the clearing. We walked to the center of the bonfire. “ where is Dameon?” I asked Tristen “How would I know?” He said before an alpha came up to us, pulling him into a handshake. “ where have you been, man?” he asked before turning towards Lia and me. “And who are these chicks?” he asked smiling at us. “ I'm Lia, and this is Willow,” Lia answered in her flirty voice. “ Damn, Tristen, you scored big.” I did not miss his lustful survey. “Don't get any ideas; my father would kill me if anything happened to them.” But th
I ran around a tree, losing sight of him. I looked left and right, wondering where he could be in these twisted shadows of the trees.But then I suddenly felt him grab me from behind, his arms around my waist as he pulled me against him."Gotcha," he said, smirking.I struggle playfully, trying to get away."Dameon!" I giggle, and he loosens his hold on me so I'm able to turn and face him. Only then did I realize how close we were, his arms around me. He stared back at me, his dark eyes glinting in the moonlight, a whirlwind of emotions swirling inside them."You're breathtaking," he says. "You always have been "My eyes widened and I could only stand there in shock, trying to calm the firework explosion inside me. He thinks I'm breathtaking. Dameon Thinks I'm--!But I realize he's waiting, waiting for my response. So I tentatively put my hands on his chest, looking up at him. His strong jaw was clenched. I want him so much. I want all of him. I could not help
Tristen drove us home, dropping Lia Off on the way. While I am so happy for her, all I can think about is the kiss with Dameon. My first kiss. And It was amazing. More than I could ever ask for. I know I didn't have any prior experience to go off, but he was freaking good.The thing is, I don't know what he thinks about it. What if it was just an in-the-moment thing for him? Was I too inexperienced for his liking? I want to know all these things, but at the same time, I don't. I'm just confused at this moment!I want to tell someone, but I know Lia is only focused on her new mate right now. And Brianna, well we all know how things have been with her lately. I don't have many friends so that only leaves Jake. But if Jake does like me, that would be insensitive. I thought about Ralph, but I don't really want to talk about how I Kissed his own son with him.I looked over at Tristen. He's been..nice lately if you can call it that."Tristen?""Yeah?""Um, I d
I rejected him, would he want to keep being friends after that? I don't know...I've never had to deal with something like this before. I felt so confused about everything.And Dameon was already taking up a lot of space in my mind, so much that I had been avoiding him. He texted me, asking if I got home okay but I didn't reply. I had told Ralph that I didn't need Dameon to drive me anywhere anymore too. I just didn't want to face him right now. Not after what Tristen said.I felt so stupid for letting Tristen's words affect me this much, but I couldn't ignore them.When I got home, I was not prepared to see Dameon, talking to an alpha I had never seen before on the driveway. He had brown hair with tattoos along his arms, just like Dameon. When I walked up, they stopped their conversation immediately as they both looked at me.My eyes widened in alarm, I clutched my bag tighter as I looked down, wanting to avoid eye contact. I found myself speeding up, quickly walki
PainIt’s something I’m familiar with. It comes with each day breaking, an endless cycle for me here in Blood Moon Park.The source? Well, my life went to shit a long time ago but if I have to pin my troubles on someone, that would be my step-father, Alpha Eric. Being the head alpha means that his every word is law, and my life is a mere plaything in his hands, something he can manipulate and ruin. I loathed him with all being, but I also feared him; he’s the one who controls my life ultimately, not me. He allows me to stay in the basement of the house where my family used to live; sometimes, I can’t help but think about the happy times I spent living in the main house when my father was still alive. But I make do with the basement; it’s better than being homeless, so I am grateful for whatever I have.I can't complain, because complaining means being beaten even more than ever. As the omega ‘runt’ of the pack, I invite more trouble than anyone else, but for things beyond my control,
I hid behind a thick brush as I watched a male wolf stalk through the woods, praying that the brush is enough coverage for my fur as I look at the wolf prancing around the forest. I tremble in fear as I realize that he is twice my size and an alpha, for that matter, cause of his tall frame. His fur is as dark as midnight, and I struggle to keep my gaze on him as he blends into the shadows of the trees. I’ve been running the entire night and am barely trying to stay conscious.I’ve been running the entire night and am barely trying to stay conscious; my paws feel sore, and I am sure they are filled with splinters as I haven’t transformed into my wolf for a long time. I try to move from my hiding spot, but I make a big mistake as I step on fallen leaves and make them rustle. I see the wolf stop, his ears straightening in alert. Fuck, I mumble, he heard it. I watch as he sniffs the air. I try to make one last effort to stay hidden as I lower myself into the ground.I can't run as I am
I wake up, realizing that am in a medical facility of some sort, I’ve never been to one before but from what I see about hospitals on television, it looks like a medical facility. I lay on a white bed trying to re-collect my memories and know where I am. The throbbing pain in my head has lessened. I try to stand up but my head feels floaty for some reason, I notice that an IV has been run through my right hand.A nurse walks in and notices that I am awake. How are you feeling now? She asks walking toward me. “Am f- fine” I manage to croak out as my throat feels dry. “w-where am I?” “Who brought me here”? “How did I get here” I ramble on feeling nervous. “Calm down, I will answer all your questions”. You are in the hospital of Silver Moon pack. The alpha’s son brought you in.The nurse suddenly looks nervous, “The head alpha is on his way, I have to tell him about the pack mark on your shoulder” My heart drops, how could I have forgotten about the crescent moon on the top right side of
I talked to Alpha Ralph some more, after which I admitted I was an orphan, and we left the pack’s hospital together. He leads me to his home, and he says I will stay with him. I admired his large Spanish-styled house. I admired the flowers and fountains around the house. He led me into the house, I was expecting him to either lead me to the backyard or servants' quarters. But he takes me to a large room, fully furnished, with the softest-looking bed I have ever seen, a walk-in closet, and a bookshelf.It was an actual room, which I had all to myself. I look at him in disbelief. I can't believe he is letting me stay here. He tells me not to tell anyone that I am from the Blood Moon pack, that no one should see my pack's mark on my shoulder, and if anyone asks to tell them that I am an orphan whom he took in from one of their distant allies. This was better than staying in my pack. I just hope that Alpha Eric will not find me.Alpha Ralph lets me settle in; I look at the room in awe, lo

The next day, I woke up by noon, but I was still feeling asleep as I went down to the kitchen to prepare tea to fully wake me up.When I got to the kitchen, I heard the doorbell ring multiple times. “ Can you please get that for me,” Ralph called from his office.“ Yeah,” I replied as I opened the door to see three people standing there. Lia, who was nervous; Dameon, who I was happy to see; and Tristen…who I was not happy to see. Yeah, I was still angry that he called me a rodent.“ Sorry about the continuously ringing doorbell ringing, this asshole couldn't wait for two seconds, apparently.” Dameon glared at his brother who just scoffed.“ Hello, Willow. We are here to see Ralph, where is he,” Tristen said pushing past me“ He is in his office,” I replied.Dameon greets Lia and me before following after him. I turned to Lia, feeling awkward. I didn't know what to say especially after what happened the previous day.“ Do you want to go to my room?”
I rushed out of the house ignoring Lia's call, rushing back home. It was about a 15-minute walk from her place to my house. I looked at the sky, noting that it was getting darker.I put on my headphones listening to random music, trying to drown out the negative emotions but it was unsuccessful as I started sobbing by the time I got to the house. I was glad that Ralph was not at home because I didn't want him to worry about me as he had enough on his plate already.I wasn't even mad at Brianna, I was mad at myself for always ruining everything and now I had made sure that she wouldn't like to talk to me again, especially since I stole her crush. I just feel awful and I don't understand what Jake sees in me that he likes.I know Brianna doesn't know what my stepfather has instilled in me- that I am pathetic, worthless, disgusting- and that is even why I can't comprehend why Jake is attracted to me– this is all frustrating. I decided to just sleep it out, hoping that
It started one day randomly, the day the topic of crushes came up while Lia, Brianna, and I were hanging out at Lia's place.“ Okay guys, I need your opinion. So, Luke is pretty cute, don't you think?” Lia pulls up a picture from the guy's Instagram on her phone, showing me.“ He is. You guys will be cute together,” I agreed. “ I feel that he likes you,”“ you think?” she asked excitedly, jiggling her phone in her hands. “ shit! I liked it! And it was from five weeks ago!” she desperately taps her phone for a few seconds.“What about you, Willow,” Brianna asked me, a strange look on her face. Is she asking me if? Do I have a crush on someone? I mean, there is no denying that I'm attracted to it. A certain somebody, but I don't know what we are.“I don't know, really,”“ well,.I know someone who has a big crush on you.“Who?” Brianna asked looking anxious“ I thought it was pretty obvious, Jake of course!”“Jake?” I questioned “ Yeah,
I looked at my phone, hoping to see a text from Dameon, but there was still nothing. I was kind of disappointed. I put the phone down, telling myself not to get my hopes high, and left to take a shower.When I got out of the shower, I decided to watch some movies before bed. As I was about to start the movie, I heard my phone ding with a message. I looked at it, lightening up as I stared at the contact name on the screen. Dameon: come outsideI wasted no time putting on my shoes and rushed downstairs, my heart pounding in my chest.I couldn't believe he came! I was nearly floating with happiness. I opened the door to see him standing by the porch steps, with his leather jacket and the familiar feeling of butterflies exploding in my stomach.“ You came,” I said excitedly “ I didn't forget,” he gave a small smirk, pulling something out of his pocket. A golden bracelet dangles in his hands.“ I uh, didn't have time to wrap it up, but…I made this for you,”
