The comeback of the wolf 56. BONUS CHAPTER- Out on the ice
BONUS CHAPTER Reese’s P.O.V. “Are you ready?” I smiled, looking next to me in the car as I watched Dana look in front of her, mouth agape and eyes big in wonder as she took in the place.“What the hell did he do to this place?” She gasped before she looked back at me in awe again.“This must have cost him a fortune.” She added before she opened the door and got out of my car, to which I smiled and did the same, closing up my car before we walked over to the main entrance of the ice skating rink. We stepped into the newly acquired ice rink with a sense of awe. The transformation of this place was nothing short of extraordinary. The once worn-out and almost neglected space had been completely revitalized, thanks to Caleb’s unwavering dedication to turning this place into a fun spot for kids today and in the years to come. I couldn’t help but feel a surge of admiration for his commitment and dedication to creating a haven for young aspiring hockey players. The grand opening of the ice
The comeback of the wolf 57. BONUS CHAPTER- forever
Caleb’s P.O.V.The sun bathed the garden in a golden glow as I stood at the end of the aisle, my heart racing with anticipation. My brothers, Zach, and Jake flanked me as my groomsmen, their presence a reassurance of the unbreakable bond we shared as siblings. I looked at them, sharing a knowing smile that spoke volumes about our unspoken connection.The doors opened and Reese, a vision of beauty in her flowing white long gown, began her graceful walk towards me. My breath caught in my chest as I took in her radiant smile, her eyes sparkling with love and happiness. Beside her, Dana, her best friend who was also the maid of honor, beamed with pride and joy.The soft melody of a love song filled the air, harmonizing with the beating of my heart. And then, like a little angel, my niece Dahlia stepped forward, clutching a basket of rose petals. She delicately scattered them along the aisle, leaving a fragrant path in her wake. God only knows how many times she had begged both me and Rees
The comeback of the wolf 1.Homecoming
“God damn it!” I shouted between my gritted teeth as I threw away the hammer that I was holding in my hand. I was sitting down on one knee, my good knee, trying to fix the damned fence that kept the horses from running off, and just as my luck would have it, I had just used the last nail, trying to keep the damned fence attached to this fucking wooden pole. But of course, with my luck, that didn’t work as planned. Because here I was, out of nails, the fence still not being repaired, feeling like a damn failure all over again.Hah… story of my life, if you ask me. The wind howled through the trees as I gave up on my task and started to walk back toward the main house on the ranch grounds. I squinted through the sunshine, searching for the familiar landmarks that would lead me back to the ranch house of my family. The place that had once been my home, and now felt like my Goddamn prison more than anything if you asked me. The sunshine illuminated a rusted sign that read “The Loup Ranch.
The comeback of the wolf 2.the pick up
Caleb’s P.O.V.The drive to Dahlia’s school was nerve-wracking, but I managed to stay focused and alert during my drive downtown. I arrived at the school, parked the car, and walked toward the entrance of the school building. There were already some parents standing by, waiting for their kids to come outside, and looking at the school building made me feel a pang of nostalgia for my own childhood. God… how many times did our mother stand right here waiting for us to walk out of the building? And just standing here, facing my old school building, I couldn’t believe that it had been so long since I had last visited my hometown. Everything looked familiar and yet so different at the same time.As a famous hockey player, I was already used to being recognized by fans all the time, but I didn’t expect the attention I was receiving from some of the mothers who were waiting out here for their children. Some of them without a doubt still ‘happily married’, even though they were giving me bedr
The comeback of the wolf 3.the horse of glitter
Reese’s P.O.V. I cleared my throat and straightened my back before I started to speak to him again.“Hello, sir. What brings you here?” I asked him, my voice trembling slightly, so I was forced to clear my throat, which only made me sound like a total moron.Damnit!The man smiled down at me, and I felt my heart flutter even more.butterflies...too many butterflies... “I am here to pick up Dahlia’s arts and crafts project. She told me it was too heavy for her to carry and somehow she got stuck on the playground on our way back over here, so I said I would come and get it for her while she waited for me on the playground, so she could still play with some of her friends. The other teacher at the playground said that it was fine, and showed me which classroom was Dahlia's, which should be this one.” He spoke, his voice sounding a bit hoarse and a whole lot of sexy. I nodded again, trying to keep my eyes from wandering over to his broad shoulders and chiseled chest. So instead, I quick
The comeback of the wolf 4.the brothers
Caleb’s P.O.V. I was sitting in my armchair, staring into the distance of the farmlands. My thoughts were consumed with Reese, my niece’s hotter-than-hell teacher. I remembered the first time I had met her like it was nearly seconds ago while it had been hours. The smile on her face, the look in her eyes when she had seen me. At that moment, I had already known how much I was in trouble. It had been a really long time since I had felt a real attraction to a woman. Hell... probably years if I was being really honest, until earlier this afternoon. Until seeing Reese. Shit... when I had first seen her, I felt like one of those cartoon characters with their mouths dropping all the way down to the floor because she was just that Goddamn beautiful. I was twenty-nine years old, and I had had my fair chair of experience in the bedroom, but I had never once felt like this. Smitteninfatuatedstruckcaptivated... I had offered to show her around town, but she had declined my offer, twice in a
The comeback of the wolf 5.Nice after work
Reese’s P.O.V. I groaned internally as I looked around at the different food trucks. I had been looking out for this event for days ever since my other co-workers Dana and Sasha had invited me to join this event that was organized in order to sponsor the youth program of the city. I mean, how could I have said no to such an amazing event like that? And this was also a fun opportunity for me to network with my new colleagues, discuss potential collaborations for the remainder of the school year, and finally unwind after a busy first semester. And not to mention, the fact that this event only cost 14$ was a massive plus on my already low bank account, but I wasn’t about to share that small detail with anyone but myself. God… I had spent the past two days in meetings, responding to emails from parents, and I was swamped with school paperwork, but now, now I was excited to finally be able to let loose and enjoy the evening with my own peers instead of the ones who were three times younger
The comeback of the wolf 6.the parking lot
“Here,” Caleb spoke, as soon as we made it to the pink food truck,“You really should try some.” He added, as I already felt guilty about breaking my diet. I also simply couldn’t resist the temptation. So, I grabbed a small slice of cake and took a bite. It was delicious, rich, and creamy with a hint of raspberry. And I couldn’t help but moan out, once the flavors hit my tongue. Caleb watched me with interest, his eyes somehow looking as if they had gotten a shade of brown darker now.“That right there is the best cake you will ever have. I’m glad you like it.” He laughed at me, showing me a dimple on one side of his cheeks.Of course, he has a dimple…He'll probably also have six absand that V on his lower abdomen, which would look sexy as sin when his pants would hang low…ow God… stop thinking Reese!“Thank you for bringing me here.” I nodded, feeling a little shy now that I had been thinking dirty thoughts about the man standing right in front of me. But then again, what woman wou

The comeback of the wolf 55. Epilogue
ONE YEAR LATER.Reese’s P.O.V.A warm Florida breeze rustled the leaves of the trees that lined the driveway leading to our house on the Loup ranch. The sun shone brightly overhead, casting a golden glow on the lush green landscape. It had been a year filled with healing, growth, and rebuilding, and now Caleb and I were ready to embark on a new chapter of our lives. Moving into our own house, together.As the moving truck pulled up in front of our house, I couldn’t help but smile with anticipation. It had been a long journey in order to get the house done, filled with challenges and triumphs, but we had persevered together, and right now, I honestly believed I had never felled so at home as I did in this house. We had put careful thought and consideration into designing our new house on the Loup Ranch. The result was a beautiful home that was both practical and elegant.The exterior of the house boasted a charming blend of stone and wood, blending with the natural surroundings. Steppi
The comeback of the wolf 54. the plan
Reese’s P.O.V.I was just walking into my apartment, holding on to my grocery bags when my phone started buzzing again. I picked it out of my jacket, seeing that it was Dana who was calling me.“Hey,” I greeted her, “Where are you?” She asked me, sounding a bit panicked in a way.“I just got home, why?” I asked her, frowning.“Turn on your TV, right now!” She told me, making me frown even more as I heard the urgency in her voice.“OK,” I answered her, picking up the remote and pressing the power button, seeing how my TV screen came to life, my eyes widened as I saw Caleb’s face on my screen, accompanied by four other men I didn’t recognize.The news anchor’s voice filled my living room.“In a shocking turn of events, professional hockey player Caleb Johnson has pressed charges against his boss, Samuel Hardt, for blackmailing him in order to stay on the team. And now, it seems as though Caleb Johnson isn’t the only one who has been blackmailed. Four other players and the head coach of
The comeback of the wolf 53. the talk
Reese’s P.O.V.I was sitting on my couch, my mind clouded with thoughts of the blackmail and me leaving Caleb behind. The weight of the situation had left me feeling weary and uncertain. I needed time and space to process everything that had happened. But I smiled, as my phone started to ring and I looked down at the screen, seeing Dana’s name. The girl that had grown from a colleague to a friend. The girl that had picked up all of the pieces to my broken heart and was trying her best to put the pieces back together.“What are we watching?” Dana’s voice asked me from the other end of the phone line, making me smile. “I am still doubting between Queen Charlotte or The Bachelor,” I answered her.“But there’s probably more heartbreak in The Bachelor, so I’m going for that one.” I shrugged, hearing Dana’s giggle on the other end of the phone.“Good, I’m right there with you.” She answered me, probably pressing play on her own TV, so even though we aren’t watching it in the same room, we
The comeback of the wolf 52. the proposision
Caleb’s P.O.V.I was staring at all the serious faces. The coach blew out a deep breath, while asshole Samuel Hardt behind his desk was sitting rigid and jerk-like as always. And a sinking feeling about what was about to go down came over me.“Thank you for joining us, Ms Reese. Have a seat.” Samuel spoke as Reese went to sit next to me but didn't look at me.“Why am I here?” She asked, her voice sounding stressed and a bit shaky. And I shifted in my seat, trying to understand what these men were all trying to pull here. Samuel opened up a drawer of his desk, pulling out a white envelope that he placed in front of Reese, who looked up with eyes big in surprise. My heart pounded in my chest as I watched the tense exchange between Reese and Samuel, my very own boss. The atmosphere in the room had almost grown suffocating. What the hell was in the envelope?Samuel leaned forward in his chair, a calculating glint in his eyes.“Reese, I understand you care for Caleb, but we believe your pr
The comeback of the wolf 51. in the office
Caleb’s P.O.VThe first rays of morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a gentle glow upon the room. I stirred in my sleep, the remnants of my wolf’s presence slowly fading as I started to wake up. My mind floated between dreams and wakefulness, my senses still attuned to the lingering connection I had made with Reese last night.MineShe is finally mine…My eyelids fluttered open, as I found myself immersed in the warmth of our shared space, and I couldn’t help but smile. Reese lay beside me, her features relaxed in peaceful slumber. I marveled at her beauty, the way her tousled hair framed her gorgeous face, and how her lips curled into a serene smile. Shit… I had done it, I had been able to pull it off. To mark and claim her without her getting hurt or even worse. I had actually done it! But I frowned as reality slowly started to sink in.she would leave again tomorrow…She would go back home…And I needed to stay here…For another couple of weeks...Shit...Sure, m
The comeback of the wolf 50. Forever
Caleb’s P.O.V.I sat on the bathroom floor, my heart pounding in my chest, as I grappled with the inner turmoil that consumed me. The sound of running water from the shower provided a semblance of solace, the droplets cascading over my trembling body.Seconds…Just seconds…or I had been too late to stop my own wolf…my mind raced with conflicting emotions, torn between my love for Reese and the primal instincts that surged within me. The wolf inside of me yearned to claim Reese as our mate, to mark her as my own. But I feared the consequences of succumbing to my wolf’s desires. If I would ever hurt her, I would never be able to forgive myself. Hell... how would I even be able to live with myself if I would hurt her?I closed my eyes, trying to find clarity inside the chaos. Reese’s face, filled with love and trust, flashed before my mind’s eyes. I couldn’t bear the thought of hurting her, let alone causing her any harm that could be irreversible. Or even worse...kill her, mark her so
The comeback of the wolf 49. let's go
Reese’s P.O.V.Caleb called over Jacob, who had a mischievous glint in his eyes as he stepped closer, immediately approaching Dana. “Dana, meet Jacob, one of my friends and teammates,” Caleb spoke, gesturing towards Jacob.“Jacob, this is Dana, Reese’s very close friend.” He spoke as I saw how Dana’s eyes widened with surprise and a smile bloomed on her face. She extended her hand towards Jacob.“Nice to meet you, Jacob. I have heard a lot about you.” She smiled at him, while Jacob’s gaze lingered on Dana’s hand for a moment, a playful twinkle in his eyes. He took her hand, holding it gently.“Likewise, Dana. It’s a pleasure to finally meet a pretty girl around all these brawny men.” Dana blushed at Jacob's words, her cheeks turning a rosy shade of pink.“Oh, thank you, Jacob.” She smiled while Caleb chuckled, probably already sensing the chemistry between those two.“Why don’t you join us for the celebration? We’ll be heading to the rooftop bar of the hotel. The whole team will be t
