After sharing that cup of coffee, I knew just how badly I really wanted you.” I told her the truth, seeing how her eyes seemed to melt as she looked at me while telling the story.
“A thunderbolt?” She asked me, smiling as she looked at the second pendant on the bracelet.
“We shared our first kiss during a thunderstorm,” I told her matter-of-factly, but she started to shake her head at me, wanting to tell me how I was wrong because our first kiss was shared in High School and I was just an ass who just couldn’t remember it, I quickly placed my finger on her lips. Shit… I still hoped one day I would be able to make her forget about that.
“Our first kiss that actually mattered,” I told her, seeing her smile at me as her eyes started

Jenna’s P.O.V.As I made my way towards the High School building, the anticipation in my chest felt like a swarm of butterflies taking flight. Today was not just an ordinary day, it was a culmination of months of planning and preparation, a day that would hold a special place in my heart for a long time to come. It marked the grand opening of the library and a double celebration, the graduation party of Adam’s two sisters. But for me, it held a significance that transcended the joy of the occasion.Weeks had already passed since Adam and I had made our relationship official to all of Fairview. And the past weeks had been nothing short of magical in my book, maybe that was why it felt as if time was just flashing by us. Every moment spent with Adam felt like a cherished memory in the making. We had navigated the delicate dance of love and commitment, and the connection between us had only deepened with time. I cared about Adam more than I had ever cared abou

“Look, there’s Adam right there.” Skye pointed toward the stage, where my hot-as-sin boyfriend was standing tall in his formal attire, ready to assist in handing out diplomas along with his fellow colleagues. His expression was a mix of excitement and concentration. And he looked just as handsome as ever in his own unique way. And even after weeks of being in a committed relationship, whenever he spotted me, grinned at me, or even just waved at me, my heart still skipped a beat on receiving his attention. Gran must have seen our small interaction since she raised an eyebrow playfully while nudging me.“Jenna, stop swooning over that man standing on that stage. People will start talking.” She told me in a playful tone, to which I laughed. Since I already knew Adam and mine’s relationship already was the talk of the town these days. I guess that was what happen

Jenna’s P.O.V.The anticipation was electric, as I stood before the grand entrance of the new High School’s library. It was a momentous occasion, not only for the entire community of Fairview but also for me personally. This was a project that my company had poured its heart and soul into, a project that honored the memory of my late uncle, Ben.As the invited guests began to gather around the entrance, I couldn’t help but feel a swell of pride and gratitude. This library was more than just bricks and mortar, it was a living tribute to my uncle’s passion and love for books. It was a testament to the values he had instilled in me, the values that had shaped my journey, and my determination to carry on his legacy after he had passed.The ribbon-cutting ceremony was about to begin, and I was joined by dignitaries, educators, and members of the community. The giant scissors glinted in the light of the stage lights displaye

As we entered 'Raw', a steak restaurant over in Brooksville, the warm aroma of freshly cooked meat enveloped us. The decor of the place was elegant yet cozy, setting the stage for a wonderful evening. I couldn’t help but smile as I looked around the table at this vibrant, close-knit family. Eluna and Selene were both still beaming with the pride of their graduation day. They wore matching smiles and a glint of accomplishment in their eyes. Blade, Skye, and Koda were engaged in a lively debate about getting their stuff packed and moved out of the family house, their voices filling the air with enthusiasm. Gran, the true matriarch of the family, sat regally at the head of the table, a twinkle in her eyes as she watched all of her grandchildren. And by the sounds of it, I wasn’t the only one who had figured out that Gran wasn’t her mouthy usual self, since Blade looked over to his grandmother.“Gran, are you feeling OK?” I heard him as

Jenna’s P.O.V.The afternoon sun streamed through the windows, casting a warm glow over my uncle’s bedroom as I sat on the floor amidst boxes and crates, sorting through the belongings of my late uncle, Ben. Decluttering had become a necessary and emotional task since he had passed away. Each item held a memory, a piece of the man who had raised me when my mother was no longer around. I rolled over the sleeves of my hoodie, it was actually Adam’s, but ever since he had brought it with him to come and spend the night here, I had basically made it my own. And seeing the look in Adam’s eyes whenever I was wearing his hoodie, honestly wasn’t something I minded that much either.or the speed at which he mostly would rip the hoodie off of me as well…I smiled, taking in a deep breath and being able to smell his scent of the sweater. Ever since Eluna and Selene had graduated, it looked as if the en

Adam’s P.O.V.The sun was beginning to set, casting a warm, golden glow through the windows of Gran’s old house. I had spent the entire day helping her pack her belongings as she prepared to move to the elderly home. It was a bittersweet moment, filled with memories of the countless hours I had spent in this house as a child. Gran didn’t seem to mind this moving day at all, all she had done all day was boss my brothers around. The thought of her leaving this familiar place was a difficult one to accept for me. I had been considering buying the house and keeping it in the family, but financial constraints had made it seem like an impossible dream nowadays.As we sorted through her belongings, memories flooded back to me, family gatherings, holidays, and birthday parties, the comforting feeling that came with being inside this house. It was where I had grown up in a way, the place where I had learned many life lessons, and where I had shared

Jenna’s P.O.V.Finding out the truth about my uncle had left me in a state of shock, the awful truth about him keeping my mother’s letters from me, was unraveling before my eyes life a nightmare I just couldn’t escape. The weight of this knowledge lay heavy on my shoulders, and I needed solace, a refuge from the storm of emotions that threatened to consume me.I made my way to Adam’s house. The familiar path that I had driven so many times by now, seemed like an unfamiliar journey into the unknown right now. I just needed Adam, his presence, and the reassurance that only he could provide. God… I just needed to feel his arms around me and the sound of his voice telling me everything would be alright.As I arrived at the Miller house, I was greeted by Eluna who opened the door after I had rang the doorbell.“Hey. Adam’s isn’t back from Gran’s yet.” She told me as she op

My gaze remained fixed on the men standing in the moonlit clearing, their expressions unreadable as Blade started to look around out of nowhere, his head yanking in all directions as he looked alarmed, as if somehow, he could sense me staring at them. I couldn’t tear my gaze away from the window that had given me this shocking view. My hands trembled as I was holding on to the mug, and my breath came in short, shallow gasps. It felt like I had stumbled into a world of secrets and mysteries that I could never have imagined. And just like that, it felt as if time slowed down around me. Adam’s eyes locked onto mine, and I saw the moment of realization dawn in his beautiful brown eyes. His expression was a mixture of surprise and pure panic, and he started to move toward the house, his steps quickening as they turned into running.I stood frozen, unable to tear my gaze away from the approaching figure of Adam. A whirlwind of emotions churned within me. F

“How is your uncle’s house going?” Koda asked me, walking toward a cooler and grabbing a can of soda for himself. And I took a mental note that since Adam had just installed the refrigerator, I guess we could start loading the fridge in as well, once the boxes were all emptied out.“Good. It’s actually done.” I smiled, referring to my late uncle Ben’s house. I had taken some time to think about my options on what to do with the house that I had grown up in. But once the decision had been made, I had been over the moon and unstoppable.“And we also named it.” I smiled, seeing how Koda’s eyebrows rose up, making him look just like Adam.“I named it ‘Uncle Ben’s Inn’, in his memory.” I smiled, thinking back at the way my uncle’s old house had once looked back in the day, and how I had transformed it into a small bed and breakfast.

Jenna's P.O.V.6 months laterThe sun streamed through the big windows of the kitchen, overlooking the backyard and the woods in the distance, casting a warm glow across the hardwood floors of Gran’s old house, or as we now said; our house. It was a bittersweet morning, one that marked the ending of one chapter, and the beginning of a whole new chapter in Adam’s and my life. Today was official moving day, and we were finally ready to call this place our home.Months of hard work had gone into the remodeling of Gran’s house. Together with Anderson’s Construction, Adam and I had gone into the remodeling of Gran’s house. Together, we had transformed the old, creaky place into a cozy haven of our liking. It was our labor of love, a testament to our commitment to each other, and to the new life we were building together.I walked into the kitchen, savoring the scent of fresh paint and the p

Jenna’s P.O.V.I blinked, waking up and feeling disoriented for a moment because somehow my brain for a second still thought that I was back in Chicago in Jules’ apartment. But as my consciousness slowly returned, I became acutely aware of a new sensation souring through me, bringing me right back into Fairview, into Adam's room.I somehow felt different waking up, but it wasn’t the kind of different that would send alarm bells ringing. It was a good kind of different, a sense of profound calm and security I had never experienced before.The memories of the previous night flooded my mind, the raw intensity of Adam’s mark, and his declaration of claiming me as his mate, forever. The connection we shared had always been undeniable, but somehow seemed nothing compared to what I was feeling for the man right now. I could feel his energy, his warmth, like a warm undercurrent in my veins before I had even touched him or

Adam’s P.O.V.Fuck, if my little mate was about to keep this up, I would blow my load like a fifteen-year-old looking into his first Playboy magazine. My eyes rolled back all the way to where they could probably see my own brains, feeling her bare for the very first time. The tight clench of her pussy, her wetness, fuck… I could even sense my precum marking her already, my scent nesting inside of her. My fucking canines were already coming out and I was only just inside of her.My hips had found a glorious rhythm of rocking in and out of her. The wet sounds of our fucking, the cracking of the bed on the wooden floors, the sweet sounds she was making as I hit her G-spot stroke after delicious stroke, it was all too much for me right now.“Where do you want me to bite you, baby?” I panted, knowing that right now, I wasn’t able to hold on for much longer.

Jenna’s P.O.V.Damn, this man is good, better than good.Hell, does the right word even exist?No… I honestly don’t think so.He slowly climbed over my body, his lips crashing against mine. The weight of his body on mine, the warmth of his skin pressing on me was almost enough to send me over the edge once more. My hands ran down his cheeks as I stopped him for one moment, long enough to look into his eyes.“I want you to mark me,” I told him, letting him know about the final decision that I had made about my future before I got on the plane back to Fairview. Yes, this had been my decision and mine alone. I wanted to be with Adam, that much was true, but I wanted to be with him in every way human or supernaturally possible. I wanted every part of him. And I wanted to be his just as badly as I wanted him to be mine.

Adam’s P.O.V.I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm myself and my wolf. I couldn’t help the grin that almost split my face in half, and how my heart skipped a beat and then started to pound like a wild horse. It really felt as if Jenna coming back to Fairview had also brought me back to life after being dead for a week straight. Fuck, I loved this woman with my whole being. And now, I knew for a fact that that was never going to change because she had just told me that she was going to stay right here, with me.When I had seen her sitting on my front porch, I had wanted to race to her immediately. I had wanted nothing more but to scoop her up into my arms, carry her inside the house, and lock the door behind me so she wouldn’t be able to run away from me anymore. But I hadn’t acted on my own selfish feelings or those of my wolf, since at that point I hadn’t realized why she had returned just yet. I mea

I took a deep breath, my questions all coming in a rush now that I knew I was able to ask them.“What does it even mean to be a werewolf? How does it affect you, and your family? How does it affect our relationship?” Adam leaned back, his expression thoughtful as he considered how to explain.“Being a wolf means that we have the ability to transform into wolves whenever we want to. It’s a part of our family history, a secret we have kept to protect those that we care about.”“How does it affect our relationship?” I asked him as he smiled at me. A warm smile filled with love.“In my world, every wolf has one true mate, sort of a soulmate. Wolves are extremely loyal creatures, they find their partner and they stay together for life. It means that no matter what happens, I will always find my way back to you, Gorgeous. Because you are my one true mate. Or as wolves say, you are mine. That

Jenna’s P.O.V.I had just revealed my decision to Adam, as we were sitting on the sofa inside the living room of his family’s house, strangled in each other's arms. I watched his expression closely, anticipation gnawing at me as I waited for his response to me telling him that we had bought his grandmother’s house and that I had done it without his permission. Adam’s eyes widened in surprise, as he stared at me in disbelief.“You… you did what?” She stammered, clearly taken aback by my revelation. I nodded, my heart pounding with nervous excitement, hoping to God that I had made the right choice by doing this as a gift to him.God…Please don’t let him get mad over this…“I know how much that house means to you, Adam,” I explained, reminding him of the conversations we had had about the place. Hell… I could still see t

“I have been searching for you all afternoon,” I confessed to her, my eyes locking onto hers. Jenna’s expression softened at my statement, and surprisingly, she reached out and touched my hand as if she wanted to apologize that I hadn’t been able to find her any sooner.“I’m sorry,” she told me before she swallowed deeply.“I was at Anderson’s Construction almost the entire afternoon for an emergency meeting with the staff.” She added before she looked away from me again. Which made a lump form in my throat that I absolutely hated, because what on earth could be so bad that she needed to look away from me when she would tell me this?“I…” She sighed, pressing her lips into a thin line, while I braced myself for impact.“I decided to sell my uncle’s company.” She nodded, and my heart sank at her words. This was exactly
