Imogen felt the presence of something strange behind her, she turned back slowly as she made eye contact with a werewolf shooting Imogen a deadly glare. As soon as they exchanged glances, she fainted at the spot immediately.

A few hours later, Imogen opened her eyes to her nicely decorated ceiling that was painted white which smartly matched the color of the room. 

The reflection of the sun suddenly diverted her attention, it reflected on her face making her glow beautifully. She covered her eyes, preventing them from the pain the sun will cause them.

She got out of bed and worked down to her window just as she could feel every bit of the beauty of nature outside her bedroom.

The fresh wind caressing her skin, leaves romantic sensations. The reflection of the sun and the greenish nature of the trees with the colourful flowers.

It felt more real and beautiful than any other day she has experienced. The chirping of the birds says everything.

Imogen suddenly recalled seeing a werewolf. She thought it was just a dream. She carelessly waved it off and headed to the kitchen to get herself some water to drink. 

She opened the freezer and reached for a bottle of water, twisted the cover open and gulped down the contents to her throat. She felt more refreshed and satisfied. 

Returning some strands of hair covering her face back to her ear, she shut the door as she looked up to see an unfamiliar male figure abutting against her freezer with his legs crossed across the other. 

Imogen was shocked.

                     

            "Who….are….you?" She spluttered and screamed loudly as she scurried back to her room and shut the door behind her. She quickly locked the door with her shaky hand and panted heavily feeling somewhat safe.

          

               "Heyy!! I am so sorry I scared you last night and broke into your home! I promise I'm not a bad person!" He shouted enough for Imogen to hear him.

              

               "The heck is he talking about?" She mumbled as she pulled herself together and returned to her senses. 

She searched her room for her phone but she couldn't find it. She was restless as she couldn't think of what to do. Abruptly, she remembered that she had left it on a coffee table in her living room last night. She was so confused about what to do not until She opened the door slightly. 

                   

                      "Hey, Siri!!" She shouted as she heard her phone turn on

                      "Call the corps," she added

                        "Calling the corps," it retorted and Imogen felt so relieved. 

After the phone rang twice, a Corp picked up as the intruder searched for her phone.

                        " Yes, 911, any problem?"

                       "Yes, I have an in....." she trailed off upon hearing her phone hung up. 

She stylishly worked out of her room and saw her phone in his hands. She jolted backwards as he walked towards her. She was more frightened to see him coming close to her and at the same time admiring his lovely blue irises and his curly mud hair style with his sexy lips.

'Like seriously, is that the next thing to do at that moment?  Avoid his eyes… Avoid his eyes...Don't come close, what is he doing?'  

Imogen scrutinized him at every step, quivering in her stance,"who are you?" She swallowed. 

     "Look if I had the intention to hurt you, I would have done so long ago while you were sleeping but I didn't."

                     "That wasn't my question!" she retorted. 

                   "Fine, it's okay, I am Oliver." 

she suddenly remembered what she saw last night, she cringed and he aimed to follow. 

With her hands spread in front of her, trying to stop him from coming closer "stop right there!" She exclaimed, cringing  backwards and he aimed to follow.

With so much innocence in his voice, he assured her, "I am not gonna hurt you."

Her frustration grew with each word he spoke. She was not sure what his intentions were so that increased her anxiety even more, "Just! stay! right! there!" She spat out.

                    "Since when have you been in my house and why are you here?"

Sitting on the nearest sofa, "I have been here since last night and I came here to find my friend. I'm not here to hurt you," he reaffirmed.

              "Wait, don't tell me you were whatever from last night," She asked softly, hoping his answer wouldn't be positive. 

He looked at her and scoffed. 

               "Will you believe me if I tell you?" He said smiling.

'Why does it matter if I believe you anyways, I will never believe a stranger that barges into my house without an ulterior motive of harming or stealing from me.' 

Imogen scoffed. 

                    "I am a werewolf," he blurted as he couldn't care less about what happens next.

Standing up from the sofa, "I am not even interested in listening anymore, you should leave now before I call the corps." she retorted feeling infuriated.

She suddenly froze as his response sink into her brain and process

                            "You're what?!" 

                             "A werewolf."

Forthwith, Oliver screamed softly. He changed into his werewolf form. 

 Imogen was too stunned to move an inch, he disappeared leaving his footprints by the window. She fell on the sofa and took a deep breath before rushing to her freezer to drink some water. 

        "Everything that happened was a dream," she repeated continuously to herself as she quickly shut her window and she packed her things. She left for work.

She got to the hospital a few minutes earlier and tried to calm herself.

She proceeded to replace the dog's drip. It opened its eyes to a blurry vision. It was so weak that it couldn't stay another minute before falling asleep. Imogen fondled it dearly. 

Just then she heard a knock on her door,

                                    " yes!" She said, 

A nurse with blonde hair came in smiling lightly."The chief wants to see you." 

There was a new chief doctor that was being selected to be the head doctor in R.A veterinary but Imogen has never seen or met him since she just got back from her leave.  

                  "He is in the hospital?" Imogen asked amusingly,  

Arching her brow, she replied. "Yes, but this is his first time coming to the hospital and now he wants to see you," 

                   "That is too sudden" 

They both suspected that something unusual was going on.

Heading out,  "well then good luck meeting him," the nurse smiled.       

Imogen headed to the chief's office which was a few steps away from hers. 

Getting to his office, a male figure was seated on a chair,  turning his back against the door. 

         "Er... Sir, you sent for me," Imogen said as she got curious about what the chief doctor looked like. 

He turned back slowly, glowing from the reflection of the Sun outside his office which appeared like the sun was hiding behind him. 

Imogen looked at him closely as she identified a familiar face. She was extremely surprised to see who was seated in front of her.

forgetting the fact that he was her boss, "You!!!" She blurted.

    It almost felt like she was dreaming. She could feel her leg swinging in the air and her arms wrap around two muscular shoulders. What she didn’t understand was why were her legs in the air? She could feel movement though but do not understand anything that was going on. She could feel the weakness in her joints that she almost groan in pain. She opened her eyes slightly as she could see herself moving towards a field outside the mansion.What is this? What is happening? She thought to herself. She looked down to see her legs floating, “Oh god!!” she panicked. She looked to the side to see what was supporting her and saw two guys smiling at her. She was relieved, at least she’s not what she thought she was doing. Floating. She looked forward to see Braylon and Oliver standing and smiling at her. The guys put her down immediately they got in front of them. Imogen was confused. “Was that really necessary?” she asked as Braylon choose to ignore her question. “Do you sleep well my

    Pausing for a moment, she wiped her tears away. “Why did you use me?” She asked. He stepped closer whilst Imogen stepped backwards.“I would wait in that room every day, stare outside the room, hoping you could show up just like you had disappeared. Every minute I breathed, I was thinking of ways to make my powers work so I could lift your fucking curse and what? you used me in return and ditched me like I was some leftovers. I had loved you through those five years without, for a minute, loathe you for not returning.” She breathed and yelled.Holding back her tears, “I missed you very, very much.” She ran her fingers through her hair and couldn’t even look at Braylon. Braylon was overwhelmed with emotions. He is on the verge of crying at any moment. At this point, he couldn’t hold it in anymore. He had to tell her exactly what his reasons were. “It wasn’t my wish to deceive you. I couldn’t bring myself to tell you that you have to die for the curse to be lifted, so I had to. If I’m

    “What!?” They both looked back to her standing behind them. She had this straight face and a scowl took over when their eyes met. Braylon took steps towards her trying to cover what she had obviously just found out.“You deceived me for your own cause?” she asked as disappointment swapped in. “No, you have to understand. I…I can explain things to you,” Braylon tried to hold her hand but she shifted away from his touch. She looked at him one last time regretting. All she had done was waited and longed for him for the past five years thinking he loved her and he would come back.A drop of tear rolled down from her eyes. Braylon started to realise he was a jerk. He could feel how sad she was and the feelings of betrayal in her eyes. He could see that at that moment nothing he says would make any difference. He stepped away from her, looking away from her. She scoffed and wiped away her tears, sniffing. “Do you love me?” she asked but got no response from Braylon.“I must be stupid to h

She now looked like a queen who ran away from her inauguration after murdering her own king with is exactly what happen. She pulled to a rough stop as soon as a soft breeze blew towards her. Immediately, she was assuaged and calm, still panting. She looked around suspiciously like she noticed the presence of something around her. She was grunting. She looked back and forth continuously without sighting anyone. Her next step made her stopped suddenly, she turned back to see a figure in front of her with a welcoming smile. The smile disappeared when he saw her eyes. Staring and ready to devour him. She turned her head like a zombie and snarled at

Imogen, you look stunning,” he said as he gave her a soft squeeze. She groaned at it and released her from the hug. He pulled out a chair for her and had her seated opposite him.

    For the next couple of seconds, Imogen was touched by his apology. She turned to lock eyes with him. He looked so charming, stood right there with the most sincere face she has ever seen him with. "You said what?" She wanted to hear him again. "I'm sorry…." He looked down. Just as Imogen walked onto him, she smiled. When she got to him, she pulled him into a kiss. They fell on the bed behind them. Imogen stopped and looked at him. "I didn't know you look this sexy while apologising," she smiled.He turned her over and now he was on top. He kissed her like he had missed her for a very long time.

    “Did you just ask me to shut it, you know you're being rude right?” “So, what are you going to do?” she retorted, stepping an inch closer to him. “Tie me down and beat me up this time?”“Not totally a bad idea,” he smirked and carried her bridal style to her side of the bed while she struggled to get down, hitting her palm against his chest to let her down.He didn’t hesitate, he forcefully dropped her on the bed and left her bouncing. He then grabbed her two hands and reached for a rope lying beside the bed. He placed her hand over her head and tied them to the bed rail. She stopped moving when she looked up to see that her hands were tied and there was no way she could escape. But Braylon had tied her in a way that she could move well in her sleep. He stood there and stared at her, watching the way she stared at him with hatred in her eyes. On the other hand, Imogen was getting irritated with the way he looked at her. It was like his eyes were scrutinising her entire body. “Do

He neither could understand the situation nor could he understand what Braylon was saying. “Braylon? What is going on?”Braylon looked at him puzzled, stunned at the same time. “The reason why I couldn’t use my powers. I mean, the curse that was imposed on the alphas. She…. she can lift that curse,” “Wait, that means…Oh! My! God! The last heir to the Crawford…. Imogen Crawford,” he replied within the period of time his memory flashed back to the hospital.
