Well, we did sneak up to meet tonight.

More precisely, it was Alex who came to my room. Around two o'clock in the evening after the castle turned quiet, a light knock sounded from my bedroom door and then a male silhouette walked into my room.

My eyes blinked at him closing the door tightly and then stepping to the side of my bed. "What is it?" I asked in a hoarse voice as I lifted my body and sat on my bed. Alex touched my face with his big warm hand, I closed my eyes again because I was still very sleepy while enjoying the comfort of his hand.

The sound of his breathing was loud enough in the silence of my room. Outside the heavy rain had stopped, leaving only a light drizzle. "Cara, after all this is over ... I want you to come home soon." Alex's deep voice sounded a little fragile that made me open my eyes again and look at him. I think I'm still very sleepy because in the dim light of my room I can see a glint from Alex's slightly glossy eyes, like someone who's about to cry.

    The offer sounded both crazy and tempting enough that I thought about it for a few seconds in my head. But I've spent most of my life on the run. I also don't want Alex to leave his Pack life and our family just to run off with me."You're still drunk," I muttered, pulling the corners of my lips down. Alex smiled lazily again and kissed my lips briefly before collapsing next to me with his eyes closed. The silence returned to my room until I thought he was asleep. But when I turned my body to look at him, his brown eyes stared back at me in the dim light of my room.My gaze traced the straight, defined features of his face, then the dark beard that covered his usually clean jawline. This past month must have felt like hell for Alex. Every time I remember what He has sacrificed for me so far it makes my chest feel tight."I love you" I whispered suddenly without being able to stop. Mate or not I will still love him until the end of my life, that realization just appeared in me. To hell

    "You said your Leykan power was still very sensitive and depended on the emotions you were feeling" he continued in a low, gentle voice. "And my touch still seems to be having an effect on the strokes and marks at the base of your neck."This is the second time I've asked him to sleep with me, and the second time Alex has rejected me. "Oh ... " I mumbled a little shy and awkward. "Of course. You're right.""Hey, Cara ... " His hand tugged my chin so I could look back at him. He looked at me intently with seriousness. "Trust me, I'm not saying it because I don't want you." He cleared his throat slightly to get rid of the rough hint of hoarseness in his voice before continuing. "I just don't want to make the scar on your neck worse right now, after all we sacrificed to make the scratch and bruise fade."The base of my neck still throbs when we're close together, but not as badly as before."Well, what can I do." I replied with a sigh. "But why do I feel like all of this feels unfair to

    Alex actually left his black sedan in the castle parking lot for me. I don't know why he gave me his car, even though I haven't been allowed to go anywhere alone.I walked to the parking area, approached the black car and tried to open the passenger door. But locked.After a few seconds, a short horn sounded from the car in front of me, indicating that the car key had just been remotely opened. I looked behind me and saw Balthazar who was walking slowly towards me with Alex's car keys and remote in his hand.I opened the passenger door of the car then took a duffel bag from it and opened it."Why did he give you his clothes?" asked Balthazar in a surprised voice. He was standing behind me while also looking into the bag left by Alex.I smiled to myself as I looked at some of Alex's loose hoodies, jackets and t-shirts inside. The marks on my neck have almost completely faded, and so has Alex's scent on my body which has faded with time. Damn ... It turns out that werewolves aren't all

    The meeting with Dimitri went by quicker than I expected. Two hours only feels like thirty minutes to me. Even though all we talked about was trivial matters from the books in Balthazar's library to his newly planted tulip garden.But on second thought, it turns out we were only chatting about Balthazar ...As he had agreed with Balthazar earlier, Dimitri returned home after the two hours were over. He politely said goodbye, he even managed to ignore Balthazar's sarcastic remarks who told him tobring cake for him again at the next meeting.We watched him walk toward the forest until his towering body disappeared between the rows of dense trees. For a while Balthazar and I stood in the courtyard of his castle in silence until he finally opened his mouth again."What do you think?" he asked in a low voice."Very strange."He nodded in agreement and then stared at the forest with narrowed eyes. "Very, very strange. What were you two talking about earlier?""You" I replied simply. For now

    Our first destination this afternoon is an electronics store because I need a laptop and portable wifi. Balthazar didn't bat an eye while paying for my groceries, as if he had just bought me candy instead of a very expensive laptop. Even though I already felt bad for asking him to pay for something that was quite expensive.Maybe for him the value of the laptop I just bought was nothing.It rained quite heavily when we had dinner at a restaurant that was quite luxurious and quiet. For this one, Balthazar himself chose his place. I think he's been to this place with Alpha Sam before. Visitors who come are welcome to choose where to have dinner in a private booth or in a more open bar area. Of course Balthazar chose the first option.A waiter guides us to one of the elegant booths surrounded by carved wooden partitions. Dim lights add to the elegant and warm atmosphere in this room. I took a seat across from Balthazar and then opened my jacket while he himself was looking at the menu bo

    My question hung in the air for a few moments."Did Viktor leak that information?" asked Balthazar angrily. I can almost feel Leykan's aura and power even if it's very faint."We don't know yet" Val replied. "The first thing Sam did after receiving the request for a visit tonight was tell me to pick you up.""Isn't that pretty dangerous?" reprimanded Balthazar slightly curtly. "Right now Sam and Pack Yellowstone are being suspected by other Packs. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the werewolves from the Pack was stalking you, especially since you're a BetaPack Yellowstone."I looked at Val with a surprised look, I didn't know that he was a Yellowstone Beta pack. The Hummer we were driving shot through the quieter streets of Portland."Even if someone was stalking me, by now they would have lost track of me. I've been looking for you two hours ago, then changed cars with other pack members several times." Val kept looking straight ahead while talking to us. The tense atmosphere envel

    Zaya stepped closer to me and gave me a hug. Even though he was smiling, I could see the worry on his face."Thanks for helping us, Zaya." I turned to Balthazar who was talking in a low voice with Val."Of course." Zaya put an arm around my shoulder and then took me into the house he shared with Val. "Don't worry Cara. You can stay with us until things cool down outside.""Have you heard about my ... situation?" I asked after sitting down on the long dark gray sofa. The interior of the house looks rather masculine with an industrial theme dominated by metal ornaments and red brick walls.Zaya sat down next to me before nodding. "Val told me about it after we met that night. Pardon my question then, Cara, I don't know about Alpha Brennan's real situation.""Oh, what are you apologizing for" I replied, laughing. "Have you and Val ... ?""Becoming a mate? Yeah!" Zaya's face turns bright with happiness. Her blonde hair looked longer than before, one hand moved to tuck a strand of hair beh

    "I have to hurry back to Pack's house to meet Sam and the others," Val said to us then he turned to Zaya who was still in his arms, her emerald green eyes softened as they met her dead face. "I will be right back."Zaya nodded her head even though her face looked unwilling. "Be careful, Val."Val kissed her forehead briefly before letting go of the hug. "Of course, honey," he replied with a half smile that made his dark fierce face look even more handsome.'Calum has picked me up at the front, I have to get out before he starts nagging again."Val gave a curt nod to Balthazar and me, then he exited through his front door.Zaya continues to introduce herself to Balthazar, while my attention is now focused on my neck which is still throbbing. I grabbed my glass of juice with slightly shaking hands and drank the rest of it down.'I'll show you your room so you can get some rest soon. I'm sure you must be tired after everything that happened tonight," Zaya offered us.Still holding my gla

    "So now you have two pet dogs?" askedAlex as I looked out the window to check if Gabriel had wandered out of Pack's house or not.With an amused smile I turned to him and frowned. "No, I only have one pet dog. The other one is a hunting dog."Alex pulled his lips down, clearly irritated at being on the same hierarchy as GabrielAdler. " ... so which dog am I?""Oh my god I was just kidding Alex" I replied with a chuckle then joined him on the bed. Quickly his hands pulled me into his arms."Have you reconciled with Jake?" His fingers slipped through my hair slowly."Uh-huh" I answered, nodding. "We plan to talk more about it at dinner tonight.""That's fine then."I looked up at him, Alex returned me with a questioning look. "Were you the one who asked the other Pack members to stay away from me?""Who stays away from you?" His brows furrowed in astonishment then he added, "I'm just asking the other Pack members to be more careful around you. I thought it would take you some time to a

    Looks like Gabriel Adler is a little desperate after failing to blackmail us.A pinch of satisfaction that appeared made me smile at him, this time my smile was truly sincere unlike before. Of courseGabriel returned my smile with an angry look that he tried to contain."Guarding and hiding someone is not an easy thing ... " I muttered, deliberately enjoying his gloomy attitude mixed with anger. "Especially with my current situation."I had planned to recruit Cameron into the Pack I was about to found, but luckily I hadn't offered it to him yet.'Quickly say what you want."Look at this damn thing ... You don't know yourself, before he himself was stalling for time now he's trying to push me.I glanced at the two Pack members chatting in the communal room while occasionally glancing back at me andGabriel. Even though they greeted me kindly but everyone still kept their distance from me after I came back here."We'll talk in Alex's study." Gabriel followed me from behind as I headed u

    "Jakes!" I called as I ran down the stairs.Jake stopped in his tracks but didn't turn to look at me. Some of the younger Pack members who had not yet left for school stopped briefly to stare at us."Can I talk to you for a minute?""I haven't slept since yesterday"Her expressionless face made me feel even more guilty. I bit my lip and nodded slightly. "Then tonight?" I asked hopefully.'Please?"My question was answered with a faint nod."Okay, good night," I replied slowly.Jake suddenly took a deep breath and folded his arms. "Cara, I don't hate you, so wipe that pitiful face of yours. What makes me angry is Alex- well, I'm a little annoyed at you too for being so stubborn, but I understand your reasons. I hope you can understand my reasons against that plan as well."Of course I understand, for Jake the interests of this Pack take precedence over his personal interests, and he expects the same from Alex as this Alpha Pack.But now I'm torn between his duties asAlpha and the inte

    Doctor Pack gave specific instructions that Alex should stay in bed for the next three days, at least until the broken bones in his leg and several fractured ribs begin to regenerate. Luckily his other injuries had turned into faint bruises in just a night.I thought last night's injuries and events would make Alex more submissive and docile than usual ... but I was so wrong.Even though I was stuck in bed for almost twenty four hours straight, Alex still kept bugging me about last night's incident, more specifically, he repeatedly made me say every detail and part where Viktor 'touched me'.At first I understood his anger but after a while I felt annoyed because the anger was now starting to target me. Being next to him almost drives me crazy myself."Alex, Viktor is dead. What else do you want?!" I exclaimed when I saw the furious expression on his face."You shouldn't have chased him! Do you know what he would have done if the seal didn't kill him?!"I had told him about the seal t

    "Don't fight." Balthazar's gruff muttering sounded from behind me. I tried to sit up but failed, the only thing I could do was move my head towards him. The pain all over my body was nothing compared to the crushing power of Balthazar who was trying to drown the Leykan energy from my body.Balthazar crouched over me to inspect while I writhed on the ground trying to fight off the painful crush that felt like it was squeezing every organ in my body. "Take a deep breath," he orders as he presses my shoulders against the ground. Her eyes only glanced at where Viktor lay for a moment before looking at me again with a look of worry and anger."Let me go-" I moaned while grinding my teeth hard to endure this pain."If I let you go now all the werewolves who are heading to this place will smell your Leykan scent." Instead of loosening his hand from my shoulder, Balthazar just pushed me harder until I groaned even louder."Take deep breaths," he repeated impatiently.I tried to catch my breat

    'Victor!" My shrill scream pierced the silence of this forest. I didn't expect him to stop when he heard my voice but the sound of his footsteps stopped instantly when he heard my voice. I easily caught up with him then I stopped a few meters behind him without making a sound.We are currently in the deepest part of this forest. It's already quite far from Alex's crash site, I think it's safe enough if I release my Leykan power here.Viktor turned slowly in the darkness of this forest and stared at me without expression. His semi-naked muscular body was still tensing up, preparing to fight me.Why didn't he transform into his wolf form, the question flashed through my head but I didn't have time to think about it further.My Leykan power is already at its limit and I can't suppress it any longer.Just like when I attacked Alex the first time, the atmosphere around us turned even more sinister than before. A strong wind blew so that the trees around it shook violently. The forest that

    "Caroline!" Alex yelled at me from inside the car but I didn't turn around. I closed the car door, muffled the sound completely and stepped out into the middle of the street.The cold night wind blew at me, brushing my hair away from my face. I took a deep breath while concentrating on finding the direction of the wolf's scent because it had stopped howling since I got out of the car.I wasn't going to enter the forest until he appeared in front of me because Viktor might have lured me away to get rid of Alex. Alex's car's airbags that didn't open during the crash are still bothering me, it's impossible for a BMW class car to have such a fatal malfunction.Slowly I turned to the side of the dark trees, waiting for him to emerge from his hiding place. Although my hearing is very sharp, the sound of his quiet footsteps was almost undetectable at all.From within the darkness a pair of shiny black eyes looked at me followed by a wide grin that looked vicious. Apparently he had returned t

    Her sudden anger made me freeze for a moment in shock.Alex was still standing clutching my shoulders with his hands that were still shaking a little. From this close distance I could see his pale face filled with worry and anger."It looks like you're very busy so I decided to go home ... " I answered in a half whisper.Her two golden brown eyes closed instantly as her tense jaw continued to throb. "I thought you left me again" he growled before opening his eyes again. A few strands of her brown hair fell to cover her eyes which at this time looked terrible."Alex, how many times have I told you? I will never leave you again."Actually, I'm also a bit angry myself because her trust in me is only limited to this, but at the same time I also understand her feelings. I took a deep breath and knelt down to hug his neck.I'm sorry" I mumbled, kissing his neck briefly. "I was just about to call you to tell you."Looks like Ihave to buy a new phone soon.His tensed body slowly relaxed and t

    Well, of course now both of them are at peace because now I am the one who is being emitted by them.I took a deep breath and looked up briefly to relieve the aching feeling in my stiff neck and then turned to face Jake who gave me a fierce glare."If you want to nag me, feel free, Jake" I muttered with another sigh.Jake chuckled in disappointment and shook his head in frustration. "Cara, do you know all the things Alex has sacrificed for you in the last eight months? If you still want to do your crazy plan, all his sacrifices so far will be wasted.""Of course, I also know what Alex has gone through for me ... but this is not the life I want to live" I replied with a heavy feeling that was starting to squish my chest.Jake's expression turned somber when he heard the change in my voice. "Method ... ""I also realize my reasoning sounds very selfish. It's just ... if one day I have children, I don't want my children who were born as half Leykan to have to live a life like this. I can
