SIENNA

I wondered how my teeth hadn’t fallen out yet from the amount of sugar that I had taken. And yet somehow, I couldn't seem to get enough. I was beginning to feel as if my life was about to be snuffed out of me in the minutes to come. I couldn't think about anything. I didn’t even want to think about anything.

The only thing that I was aware of was Sylvester's presence and how he sat beside me, staring ahead into the distance, and all I could think about was how I just wanted it to be like this, how I wanted more days like this. Him sitting beside me while we both stared into the distance, secretly smiling at the little kids playing in the distance, both of us at peace with each other’s presence.

I was certain that a part of us wished to join them, to run around without a care in the world. It would be a really nice experience to have as the breeze would blow through our hair, while our faces would be flushed with sweat, and we would have bright and wide smiles on our faces.

    SIENNAWe had to switch seats and I had to continue driving. Eventually, Sylvester got out of the car and disappeared into the darkness of the night. Nobody could know we were together. I sighed and leaned against the driver's seat in exhaustion. Somehow, I came back home feeling even heavier than how I left. I was beyond tired and really exhausted. I managed to force myself to get out of the car eventually.My shoulders sagged heavily and having dinner was the last thing on my mind. I had no intention of having dinner at all. I was beyond tired and exhausted. I finally got out of the car and headed into the house. I had finally decided that I would make my way into the dining room. I closed my eyes and sighed before I placed my hand on the door handle. “Where have you been?” I flinched in shock and then I relaxed when I saw Benjamin leaning against the wall opposite where I was. From the looks of it, it would seem that he had been watching me for quite some time. I inhaled deeply as

    SIENNAI tried to get the words to come out but for some reason, I was unable to. I didn't know what I was supposed to do next. His gaze was still on me and the hurt was evident in his eyes, and I was almost positive that the hurt in his eyes was there to hurt me. It had to be.“I'm sorry.” My voice was so low that it could almost be considered as a whisper. I wanted to tell him that it wasn't my intention to hurt him but at the back of my head, I knew that would be plain stupid because even if I was making that claim, I was already doing it. I was already hurting him. I was very conscious of the tears that stung my eyes. Even when he turned around to walk away, I couldn't go after him. For some reason, I was still transfixed in a spot, staring into the empty space after he had gone. There was a possibility that he was never going to see me the same way. Perhaps this was the part where our friendship crashed to the point of no return and this time, there was no possible way that I co

    SIENNASomehow, his words lifted my heart and the pressure that I thought was suffocating me eased a little. Maybe it was one of the reasons I liked to keep him near. It was probably one of the reasons I had to keep him close regardless. I was really exhausted and suffocated, and I had no idea what to do. What was it that I was supposed to do? My mind traveled over to Benjamin and the argument we had last night, making the anxiety return. I knew eventually I would have to be honest and tell Sylvester about Benjamin. But for now, I was a coward who was content to keep it hidden. I didn’t think that I had developed the courage to talk to him about it yet. And I didn’t even think the time was coming anytime soon. I blinked when he said something I didn't quite catch because my disturbing thoughts had pulled me under again, and all I could think about was how much I wanted to feel sane. I forced myself to revert my attention back to Sylvester. “What is it you were saying?” I asked. “

    SIENNA“Like what?” I questioned breathlessly. “Like you'd rather be anywhere but near me and it hurts,” he replied.What hurts is that you are getting married to another woman and I know that I can’t do anything about it, I thought.If Tamara wasn't even a problem, that didn't mean that we were free to be together. There were other problems to solve. Like my father. And then there was Benjamin and even Clara. I wondered if I could beg the universe to give me a break. A really small break. I deserved it. I deserved to be happy, didn't I? I just wanted to be happy. “I always want to be near you,” I told him.It hurt even as I said it but it was nothing but the truth. He deserved to know the truth. I closed my eyes. Somehow, even with my eyes closed, I could sense his proximity. I knew that he was close to me. I could feel him. I could feel his presence. When his hands circled my waist, I was left breathless by the intensity of the shudder that ran down my spine. “Maybe we need a bre

    SIENNAI stared at my reflection in the mirror. The red dress clung to me in all the right places and I was certain that I looked gorgeous. I looked really beautiful. I closed my eyes and sighed.My nerves were certainly not calm anymore. I knew that it was only going to be a matter of time before I started panicking again. I convinced myself that there was no way that I was going to this engagement party. I was doing more harm than good to myself and yet here I was because I couldn't do anything else but go. Somehow, I just couldn't let my uncertainty claw at me and stop me from going. My blond hair looked even more blond than usual and my makeup was as minimal as it could get, but the eyeliner made the color of my eyes pop. If anything, I was almost convinced that I looked amazing. Key word. Almost. I closed my eyes and smiled, and at the same time, I was tempted to burst into tears. I wondered if that even made sense. My heart was clenching and unclenching. I didn't know what to

    SIENNAHe looked away just as quickly as he glanced at me. “We should get going. You don't want to be late,” he said. I didn't miss the slight spite in his voice. I blinked in surprise when I met Clara in the hallway. Her hair was fluffed up to perfection and the waves cascaded down her back perfectly. The red color of her lipstick brought out the paleness of her complexion. Her strapless cream dress complimented the tone of her skin. I hated to admit it, but she was beautiful. She had always been. “What do you think you're doing?” I asked, raising a brow at her. It was obvious that she was dressed for the occasion. “Don't be silly. I'm going with you guys to Sylvester's party. You didn't take I'd stay home alone, did you?” She smiled sassily and tilted her head to the side slightly, taunting me with her eyes. How she even knew that he was hosting a party today was beyond me, and I couldn't even find the energy to worry about what she might be scheming. I knew the night was alread

    SIENNAI tried to keep it together. I really did. But the last thing that sent me over the precipice was when I watched him kiss her on the staircase. They claimed to have nothing going on and yet he fucking kissed her. I watched as Tamara looked at him with love in her eyes. Was it love, adoration, or something else entirely? I couldn't put a name to it. Putting a name to it would make me feel nauseous. But it was too late. I already felt nauseous. My head was already spinning, my wolf was already breaking apart and all I could think of was not cracking into two. I didn’t want to crack open and crumble, shattering in the dark abyss of insanity. Something inside of me was withering, dying, crashing, and burning, and all I could think about was how intense the pain I was feeling was. “You're going to be okay,” I felt the need to tell myself over and over again, but it meant that I was a pathetic liar. I would be lying that any of it made sense. My gaze seemed transfixed on the scene

    SIENNA Was this why she was here? Was this why she was talking to me? It was obvious that she was goading me to get a reaction out of me, but no, it wouldn’t happen. That was the last thing that I was ever going to allow her to do. That was the last thing that I was going to allow her to do to me. “You know, I didn't think that you'd have the time to come here, considering the fact that Sylvester is always helping out with your pack. I heard a lot has been going on with your pack lately,” she remarked, tilting her head slightly to the side. This was yet another taunt. It was another subtle jab that was enough to trigger me and make me give in to my murderous intentions. I couldn’t think of anything good when it came to Tamara. I couldn’t think of anything that made me not want to murder her with my bare hands. “Yes. He's been of great assistance,” I said, smiling at her with all my teeth. All of my sharp teeth. “So have the both of you set a date for the wedding? When we spoke th

    SIENNAI was beyond overwhelmed and yet I clutched my weapon closed to the side tightly. The muscles in my body were knotted into tension and no matter how tired I was, I couldn't bring myself to stop. One way or another, I needed to find Benjamin. “I can hear your heartbeat from here,'' Sylvester whispered. I could feel his lips against the lobe of my ear. I could see that some of the soldiers were searching in their human forms while some were in their wolf forms. This wasn't the time to be thinking about how he smelled or what his lips against my body was doing to me.My father had decided to stay back home. Apparently, we might have to conduct another search party for Clara. My father had said that she ran to her room when the attack started. The rogues didn't come anywhere near the house so how was it even possible that she would disappear without a trace? I couldn't even make sense of it. “You think they took her?” I blurted out the question that had been on my mind for some

    SIENNASylvester and I left the den, ready to confront the return of the rogue attacks on our pack. The air outside crackled with tension, and the scent of anxiety lingered as we approached the site of the disturbance.Drawing near the borders, I observed my father who was encircled by a few pack soldiers. His stern expression betrayed a mix of anger and concern that was apparent in him. The gravity of the situation hung heavily in the air, and I steeled myself for the challenges awaiting us. I saw the force of their destruction up ahead and I crumbled as a wave of despair washed over me. This wasn't supposed to occur if we had been vigilant enough. If I had behaved like a true Alpha was supposed to, these rogues would never have breached our territory. “Sienna, you've got to stay strong. Calm down," Sylvester urged."Easy for you to say; you're not the one whose territory is being destroyed," I snapped, but I regretted my words almost immediately. Swiftly, I apologized, "I'm sorry, I

    SIENNAI sighed, realizing that this was the difficult situation I had put myself in "Dad, let me explain. Sylvester—""Explain? Explain why you're associating with a Lycan. Do you know what they're capable of?" His voice grew louder with each word."Dad, Sylvester is not like the others. We've formed a bond. There is a connection between us. He's different," I insisted, the desperation I felt evident in my voice.His eyes flickered between Sylvester and me, and the disapproval he was feeling was quite obvious on his face. "Different? What in the name of the Moon Goddess is he different from all the others? So far he’s the Alpha.” He ran his hands through his hair in frustration. “Sienna, you're risking everything by involving yourself with him."“If you would calm down and let me explain to you, you’ll see how different he is,” I implored him.“Did he hurt you?”As my father continued his stern warnings, Sylvester remained silent, his demeanor composed. He looked so calm. Wasn’t he w

    SIENNAThe moon was gradually surrendering its luminous glow to the impending dawn as Sylvester and I lay entwined in the quiet haven of the cottage. My fingers traced idle patterns on his chest, and I could feel the rhythmic beat of his heart beneath my touch. The silence between us held the weight of unspoken words, echoing the complexity of our intertwined destinies. If anything, I was glad and relieved that we had cleared everything between us and that the tensions were all ironed out. And I was calm now.I knew that Tamara held no place in Sylvester's heart. She was inconsequential to him, and she shouldn’t dare overstep. If she did, I was quite capable of meting out the treatment that such intruders deserved. And I was ready to go home. Back to my pack and back to my dad. I was ready to tell my dad about Sylvester. "Sylvester," I whispered, breaking the silence that lingered in the air. He looked down at me, his gaze tender yet guarded."What is it?" His fingers brushed a stra

    SIENNA“But if he doesn’t?” he asked softly“I don’t care what he thinks anymore. It’s either you or no one. But you’re never getting married to Taylor or whatever her name is”“Tamara,” he corrected, a teasing grin spreading across his face.“I don’t care what her name is, and I don’t care who she is either. She’s an Alpha’s daughter, but I’m an Alpha. If she crosses my path one more time, she’s gonna know what this Alpha can do,” I said defiantly. His eyes held a mix of admiration and pride. "Damn, you can’t imagine how turned on I am by this.”“W-wh-what?” I blushed, my face getting beet red and hot at the same time.“You want to see?” He smirked. I slapped his arms in embarrassment. “Stop it, love. You can’t say things like that.”“Are you kidding me?” He chuckled. “Stop pretending like you haven’t seen what it looks like.” He raised an eyebrow at me, the mischief glinting in his eyes.“Oh my goodness!” This was so embarrassing “You can beg. I’ll show you if you beg.” He chuckl

    SIENNASylvester stood by the counter of the kitchen with a soft smile on his face as he watched me emerge from down the stairs. I wanted to watch him smile this way at me forever but at the same time, I wanted to go away from him because what he did hurt me. I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions, but at that moment, I chose to focus on the calmness I felt after the bath, which was really nice, by the way. "Feeling better?" he asked, his eyes filled with genuine concern.I nodded, still unable to find the right words to express my gratitude. The clothes he provided may have been a bit oversized, but they carried a comforting warmth that seemed to extend beyond just the fabric. It was his, and wearing whatever was his just gave me this sense of comfort. "I appreciate this," I finally said, my voice a gentle acknowledgment.He nodded in return, his gaze lingering on me. "It's the least I could do,” he said.“Of course.” The air held a fragile tension, a silent acknowledgment of t

    SIENNAThese days I had come to the conclusion that maybe the only person that I put into consideration was myself. I felt selfish, I felt blind, and I felt stupid too. I couldn't make it go away. As if he was only just realizing the impact his words had on me, Sylvester crouched down and stared up at me with sad eyes. “Sienna,” he said softly but I wasn't so sure that I had in me to give him a response. “I'm sorry. I really am. I shouldn't have said what I said. I lost control for a moment,” he said as he looked up at me. I wondered how he could bear to look up at me with the affection in his eyes when all I ever did these days was hurt him, and make it more and more obvious how much I resented him. I knew he didn't mean what he said. Yes, but that didn't mean it wasn’t true. Every bit of it was. I closed my eyes for a moment, trying very hard to put my emotions under control, to gain some sort of composure. But for some reason, I couldn't seem to do that. “I'm having a headach

    SIENNA“What do you mean you were running out of options?” I asked, raising an eyebrow at him. My hands were starting to become clammy with sweat. I was beginning to become more and more conscious of my panic as I looked at him. So I pressed my finger against my temple just to calm myself down.He dropped the cup of tea against the bedside table as he looked at me. I didn't know what to do. “I just wanted us to be alone. The two of us needed some alone time,” he replied.“What alone time are you talking about? How do you think it's possible that I could stand to be in the same room with you, knowing that you're going to be married in less than a week!” I snapped. I was trying to let the anger and rising panic not take over me. But this was Sylvester I was dealing with. No matter how I tried to escape from my emotions, from my feelings, he sure did have a way of invoking them and they always came rushing back, no matter how much I tried to escape them. “I'm not getting married," Syl

    SIENNAI wanted to die rather than feel this pain that was making me suffer. It was happening gradually and that was what I hated about shifting. It was too slow and gradual. “Sienna,” Sylvester called out again as he made his way over to me and crouched down in front of me. His face was contorted in pain, and it was just as if he was going through something similar. I didn’t think it was possible for him to feel whatever I was feeling. It just wasn't possible. I closed my eyes and sighed. Then I started to breathe in and out. I kept breathing in and out again and again. Maybe that was going to help.But I knew that I was deceiving myself. Nothing ever helped when this was happening. All I could hope for, all I could wish for was for the pain to go away. But all I did was internally count as I looked forward to the time that it would be dawn again. “I'm here,” Sylvester said softly. His hands went through my hair in tender soothing motions and I found myself leaning into his touch
