Estelle grew up being surrounded by werewolves. The Alpha and the future Alpha always considered her as being one of the wolf despite not being part of the pack. She was a human. However, her reflexes were much faster than any human's, as well as her senses. Sometimes, she is considered as a wolf because her resistance was equal to some of them. Werewolves have mates, the women who are capable of taming those beast. It is assured that when a wolf turn sixteen, they can percieved the essence of their mate and there were no exception to the rule. Estelle didn't know if it was her idea or her hallucination but ever since she was a child, she already know who her mate is. The problem? He's a and she's a human. That would be impossible. The other problem? That guy is her best friend. The biggest problem? He already swore to know his mate and it is not Estelle.

Chapter 1

Prologue

I had to run. 

I  wasn't so sure about why I was running off anymore. I had a gut feeling that I should never quit. It didn't matter how exhausted I was to the point that my feet bled. Or how hungry I was which made my stomach howl as if it were home to an evil beast.

The only rule was that I should not stop, and if I did, it should be for a limited time as possible. Only when it was dark, and I was somewhere safe, such as the top of a tree or a cave, was I allowed to stop running. I was only doing it because running across the forest after the sunset was impossible. I could also plug in a town and try to stock up on food, but that didn't always work out because I didn't have ample money to buy it so I ended up stealing most of the time.

I had to hold out for as long as I could to avoid being caught.

Who was going to be the one to catch me? I had no idea.

I had been on the run for so long that I had forgotten what had been worrying me. However, when I let my guard down, something in me cried out for me to keep going. My skin prickled as I sensed the approach of danger. The alarms continued to echo until I had covered the farthest distance possible and felt safe again.

I couldn't allow myself to be hamstrung by fear for even a second. Everything was on the line; my life was on the line.

I was about to tumble across the woodland ground when my foot tripped on a fallen limb.

When darkness knocked over, it was challenging to keep jogging, but I still hadn't located a safe place to stay the night. I have to be careful at all times. I was holding my eyes safe from the nefarious branches. Also, keep an eye out for any forest predators that may appear.

I noticed a fire out in the distance. The jungle seemed dreadful, too dark and ominous. When I was a child, I had always enjoyed horror stories until I had to live one. I had no memory of my life before this, but one thing was clear: darkness was my adversary, and I had to seek safety at night.

I didn't know how long it had been since my giant escape had begun, but I did see that they had been on my tails until recently. I would occasionally remain in a town where I felt safe, free of persecutors and dangers, and under the protection of a good soul. It wasn't typical, but it was always preferable to being cold and dimly lit by moonlight.

I needed to take a break; my weak legs couldn't take it anymore. I was terrified, but I didn't want to give up. I followed the fire route until I reached a large village. I felt relieved because it appeared to be a welcoming environment.

All of the people in the area immediately turned their gaze to me. Of course, that was unusual, but I didn't have time to think about it since my legs suddenly gave out, and I found myself in complete darkness.

"Sir, it appears that she is waking up." I heard but did not open my eyes.

My skull pounded, throbbed, and screamed for help. I didn't bother trying to stand up because all of my muscles ached. I needed to pause a few moments to rest before continuing on my journey.

I deserved some time off.

"You don't need to tell me. I think I can figure it out on my own," a man cynically said. Some soft slaps on my cheeks thoroughly awakened me. 

I reluctantly opened my eyes only to be met face to face with the entrance of a guy. He appeared to be in his early twenties, but he had a powerful presence. His tone was obnoxious, but his eyes glowed with compassion and kindness. His eyes were as green as a meadow on a sunny day, and his hair was dark brown. A gray-haired lady stood behind him with a pleasant smile on her face.

"How did I get here?" That was the first question I had.

"You're in Laiken, which is a long way from the city."

"Layken?"

I didn't know where it was. I wasn't feeling good, and my mind was racing. But I need to get out of there as quickly as possible. They instilled faith in me by letting me stay here, but I had no idea how long I would be out of the game. They could catch up to me if I were careless.

The last thing I wanted was to be apprehended.

So, with the help of my courage, I got out of that bed. I stayed in one of the cottages, which was pretty snug and had a rustic character. It appeared to be like some hospital.

"Where do you think you're going?" that man inquired. He appeared to be substantial but not the same as the fat man from the bakery in the previous town; he was more expansive and had larger muscles.

He didn't make me feel safe, even though I wasn't terrified of him. He just appeared respectable and robust, but I could sense the warmth beneath his stern demeanor.

"Thank you for your hospitality," I whispered, remembering that I had to be polite. 

"I apologize for the inconvenience."

He sneered. "How did you get yourself here? Are you on your own?"

"I'm not sure," I said, looking down. He shouldn't make me look weak; that man commanded a lot of respect for some reason.

"How do you think you don't know? You may appear to be a girl, but someone must have sent you."

"Father," a child's voice called from the door.

Curious, I switched my glance to him. I didn't have much interaction with other kids, but I was fascinated by him. Maybe it was because of his eyes. It was the first time I'd ever seen two-colored eyes in this life. One was sky blue, while the other was more akin to a meadow.

He was about ten years old, with a slim body and a height greater than mine. With his brown hair, he was a carbon copy of his father.

He had an odd personality. While his father frightened me, the kid at the door put me at ease. As he approached me, I got the impression that he was calming me down. It seemed as if as long as he was around, I was always safe.

"The girl appears to be terrified. She doesn't appear to be sent here by anyone."

"I told you not to meddle with the affairs of the grown-ups."

"However, this is not an issue for adults," he argued. I admired how he spoke to his father. He is a dominant young man. 

I interjected when I realized I had been left out of the conversation. 

"Sir. I'm not attempting to annoy you with my presence. You can dismiss me at any time."

My voice trembled, and my words were a mild stammer, yet the guy and the kid both understood me. Anyway, I had to keep going because staying in one spot was against the rules.

The kid surprised both his father and me when he responded.

"No. You cannot make her leave alone without an adult in charge because she is only a child."

"Do you have a guardian?" his father inquired hesitantly, as though he felt compelled to ask about this in his son's presence.

I shook my head, tears welling up in my eyes.

I'd never had someone before. I've been running alone through the woods since I first became conscious of myself. I didn't know my purpose, but I was confident that I shouldn't give up. I didn't know what and why I was fleeing, but I did know that if they got me, I'd be lost.

And I was fed up with it.

I yearned for a family, dreamed of wanting to cuddle up by the fire with a loved one and bask in the comfort of a warm home. I desired it in the way that essential things are expected: with my heart and soul.

"That's great. Then it's settled. Now you'll stay with us," he decided, a sly grin on his face. The guy barely said anything under his breath, but he didn't seem to object to his son's decision. 

Do I want to stick with them? No. I shouldn't have stayed. I needed to get away. I couldn't risk it, no matter how much I wanted to stay. 

No matter how hard they tried, they shouldn't have persuaded me.

It was as if my instincts screamed at me to stay, to stay safe.

At least, that's what I wanted to believe.

To my surprise, the man spoke. 

"Don't worry. There will be no harm done to you here. You'll be fine."

I was convinced. I'm not sure what made me do it, but his words inspired me. Maybe, just maybe, I won't have to flee anymore.

I would love this book, but the pronouns are not correct. They flip for the same characters throughout the whole book. I read to escape, but I have to work hard to keep the characters and events together. If it wasn't 70% off. I would have ditched the book after chapter 1.

I love the storyline, but the book itself is in great need of editing. The pronouns switch throughout the book, sometimes causing confusion as to whom they’re speaking about. Some sections could be made a little more to avoid having to reread to understand what was going on

Its a good story but you really need to proof read and edit your work before submitting it. It's very difficult to differentiate who's talking and who's being talked about. Otherwise it's okay..

Grammar is making it extremely tough to follow. Great story but had to stop reading because it gets too confusing trying to follow the characters. If it gets edited. I'll start reading again.

Chapter 1
 "Enough!" I yelled angrily. The kids around me paused for a few seconds before running around again. In this place, I was as powerful as a flea. Actually, they ignored me much more than fleas could. Bradley, the pack's beta, had requested my assistance because his sister was in labor. Along with his mate, he was in charge of the pack's nursery. Yes, I am a member of a werewolf pack, though I am not one of them. Packs worked in unusual ways. We had an alpha who served as our leader and wielded the greatest amount of power. Then the beta stood beside

Chapter 2
 The Institute. That place that is full of teenagers and raging hormones was anyone's nightmare. Some could pretend to love this place while others instead openly demonstrated how much they hated it. Adrien was one of those guys. Always complaining and always grumpy. The Institute was dangerous and teeming with predators. Much more because this said Institute was full of supernatural beings who barely managed to live together. Humans were a minority in this place, but other humans felt too special to notice the anomalies. They did not realize that sometimes we shared classes with werewolves. A being so terrifying that they could kill an average human in just seconds. Oh, but arrogance can do more. None of them paid enough attention to anyone other than themselves, so even if the werewolves sometimes showed that wild behavior that characterize

 I couldn't open my eyes. Not with the severe headache that troubled me. I tried opening my eyes a few times so I knew I was in my room in the mansion's attic. I had the blankets covering me up to the jaw, and yet I was still shivering from the cold. I could hear the fireplace burning. The fire crackling and the smell of burning wood were unmistakable. When I managed to feel a little better, I looked at everything around me. The room was dark and only the fire lit dimly. I was surprised to notice that Adrien was sitting on the small sofa in my room, totally asleep. I tried to get up, but the pain in my body was much more substantial. I felt burning, my temperature was high, my throat was dry, and my ankle throbbed. I had gotten sick from the rain, it was apparen

Chapter 4
 Classes passed slowly. Studying was not a problem for me. I loved spending my afternoons studying. My grades were the best in the whole institute and that made me proud. I always sought Alpha's approval and knew that my grades and demeanor were impeccable. Mathematics was my favorite subject but at the time, I was in no mood for numbers. My body still felt a little heavy from the disease and my head was throbbing. I wanted to go home, kidnap Adrien, and hog him for a bit. Maybe watch a couple of movies lying on the couch. Yes, that would suit me perfectly. "Have you seen the new physics teacher?" Ainsley whispered from the position she was, right in front of me. "They say he is a beauty."  I had heard some whispers about it, but it was a bit off, so I didn't pay much attention to them. However, if she had already managed to get the attention of Ainsley, who usually ignored any kind

 "Ha!" I exclaimed, victorious. "I have won against you again." "It's not fair, Elle," Adrien grumbled, pouting and flinging the console control to the other end of the couch. "I'm sure you cheated."  "Cheated?" I asked with mock anger. "I don't believe that it's my fault you suck at this game."  "That character cheats! You always beat me when you wear it."  "It's girl power, honey," I summed up, tousling his hair. We had been on the couch for hours. We went from watching a couple of movies, a romantic one for me and a horror one for him, to playing video games. After spending a lot of time playing with Adrien, I had become quite the expert at fighting games. Which embarrassed him, of course. I would never beat him in a melee fight. I was a weak human, and he was not a typical werewolf. He was the future Alpha, the strongest of all

Chapter 6 - Adrien
Adrien.  Where the hell had she been? I was going to kill her as soon as I found her.  I was well aware that it was a lie on my part, I would never lay a finger on Estelle but I couldn't help feeling annoyed and frustrated as the days went by and not finding traces of Elle. Sure, it had been my mistake to teach her to leave and erase her trace. When we were sixteen, I thought it would be very clever of me to teach her how to hide from werewolves. By that time, I was thinking that Cody was freaking out day after day and that he might become obsessed with Estelle. The frustration of not being able to communicate with his wolf began to pay off with the friend he grew up with. So I showed her, very carefully, how to leave without leaving a trace. I also knew that she had money at her disposal as if unconsciously she was always ready to flee. I knew that her childhood was spent

Chapter 7
 Wake up. Who's speaking? Wake up, Estelle! There was nothing I could do but obey that insistent voice in my head. I opened my eyes suddenly, feeling a headache that left me disoriented for a few moments. I closed them again because of the light, hissing under my breath. Why did my whole body ache? Someone was hugging me. Who was it? Why was he hugging me so tightly and desperately? He was crying? Why would anyone cry so hard over me? Something was happening. Get up, girl. I heard that voice again, although I had no idea where it was coming from. I blinked a few times, before taking in what was happening. "Adrien? What's the matter?" I asked with concern. How did I know it was him? Easy enough. I can recognize his presence anywhere and anytime. It was inevitable for me to recognize hi

 What's going on? Relax, I'll take care of it. I veered around in Adrien's arms, even though it caused me pain. I heard him hiss when I butted him right in the jaw. He didn't let go of me, which made me groan under my breath. I didn't want to fight him but I would if it guaranteed my freedom. If he didn't let go of me, I was going to send him to the ground. "Stop," the Alpha ordered again, making me stop instantly. Not out of respect, but because he surprised me that he suddenly spoke. Usually, the Alpha was ignorant of everything he did. Although after all, we were talking about his son. Would he believe that I would hurt him? I wouldn't. It was Adrien we were talking about. "We don't want to hurt you," he said apologetically, still not letting go. "Then why don't you let me go, and we talk like normal people?" I asked wryly

Chapter 9
 Neither of us spoke for a long time. Adrien amused himself playing with my brown hair, taking it between his fingers and stroking me. He didn't try to stop my crying, and he didn't complain for a second. He just stayed by my side.  He was cute. Now that I knew about my past, I understood that that little whispering voice was my wolf trying to guide me on the path. When she took control of my body, we were one. I could see those memories that she was in charge of repressing so as not to harm me. I knew everything. She also explained how I learned that the new teacher was a witch. Among sorcerers, the hierarchy worked differently. As I saw the image of my mother, a beautiful woman with curly chocolate-colored hair and the bluest eyes I had ever seen. The last name and the blood was the only thing that mattered between witches. I was not a witch. I had no powers. Now that my wolf had
