Selena's POVAs I left the office, someone unexpectedly jumped on me with excitement."Surprise!"I was taken aback and looked up to see Louisa, my friend who had been away for a while.My shock quickly turned into surprise, "Louisa, when did you come back?"Louisa was one of the few who went for pack training, so I didn't expect her sudden return."Wow, girl! What's this I'm hearing? That jerk left you hanging on your engagement."Upon hearing Louisa's words, a wave of hidden sadness washed over me, and my smile faded slightly.Louisa hugged my shoulders and reassured me, "Okay! Don't be sad. It's his loss."I pursed my lips and replied, "I'm not sad. Maybe it's for the best, you know."Louisa rolled her eyes at me and said, "You don't have to pretend to be strong in front of me, I know you still love Williams." Louisa paused, looked at me, and added, "You know what? You're coming with me...""Coming with you? Where to?""The bar, of course... Williams is now in your past, okay!""Hu
Selena's POV I clutched the dead cellphone in my hand, feeling a surge of anxiety wash over me. I turned to one of the pack cop officers in the group and mustered up the courage to speak, "Excuse me, sir. I assure you, I'm an adult. I'm actually 20 years old and I work in the Eco industry. I just happened to forget my ID card." The cop man glanced at me skeptically and retorted, "You may be 20, but your face looks like that of a 17-year-old. It's people like you who cause trouble and disrupt the peace of the pack after drinking. You're coming with us, and your parents will have to pick you up at the station." "I really am 20!" I protested, but the cop man was too preoccupied with checking the identities of others to pay attention to my explanation. Louisa couldn't contain her laughter beside me. She burst out laughing uncontrollably. I shot her an angry glare and snapped, "Why are you laughing? It's not funny." This was my first time at a bar, and now I was on the verge of being
Writer's POV "Hmmm... chicken kebab! Want some?" Selena quickly asked, trying to divert the conversation. She didn't want him to ask why she hadn't slept, so she quickly changed the subject. She abruptly shifted the topic, but Rufus didn't seem bothered and responded calmly, "No! I'm going for a morning jog." *Not a good idea, man... You should never say no to a lady when it comes to food... The aroma is so tempting,* Rufus' wolf, Eclipse, chimed in. Rufus closed his eyes, ignoring his wolf's comment. "Oh," Selena replied, her lips flattening. She couldn't express her disappointment, but she had hoped he would say yes. "Ummm... maybe when I'm back, I'll have some," Rufus suggested. Upon hearing Rufus' words, Selena's lowered eyes suddenly lifted, and when she looked at him, it was as if stars were twinkling. She smiled and said, "Okay!" Rufus turned around and left the kitchen to go for his morning run. Selena had spent the entire night without sleep. Her arms were sore and h
Selena's POVIt was exactly 4:00 pm and I found myself alone in the office. All of my colleagues had already left for the day. I sat there, surrounded by paperwork, trying to finish everything before I could leave.Finally, I completed the last task and began packing up my belongings. As I made my way towards the office gate, my phone beeped, indicating a new message. It was from Louisa, asking if I had finished my work for the day. I couldn't help but roll my eyes at her timing. After leaving me with the cop at the bar the other night, now she wanted to hang out?I replied to her message "You are so dead" with a laughing emoji and increased my pace, hoping to find Louisa soon."Seli," a familiar voice called out from nearby.I clenched my hand tightly around my dress, feeling a rush of emotions flood back.*That son of a bitch* I could feel my wolf Meeka boiling inside. Taking a deep breath, I composed myself and turned around. There, I saw Williams stepping out of a red car and
Writer's POVSelena could feel the excruciating pain in her arm, as if it was on the verge of breaking. She scowled and said unhappily, "You're hurting me, let me go..."Not only did Williams refuse to release his grip, but he even tightened it further.There were bloodshot eyes beneath his tired gaze, and his expression was filled with gloom."Seli, I understand that you have every right to be angry with me for leaving you at the wedding, and I get it. I'm willing to make it up to you. Besides me, who else could you possibly marry in this lifetime?"He paused for a moment, lowered his head, and leaned in closer, his gloomy voice laced with a hint of sarcasm. "After all, you've had feelings for me for so many years. How do you plan on surviving if you reject me?"Selena struggled for a moment, looking at him with a sense of unfamiliarity in her clear eyes.She couldn't believe that such words were coming from the mouth of someone she once called mate, someone she had liked fo
Selena's POVI made my way towards the stairs leading to my room when Rufus called out my name in his deep voice, "Selena."His tone was calm."Huh?" I glanced over at him.To be honest, i love the way he pronounced my name. I love the sound of it rolling off his tongue.I cleared my throat softly and replied, "Yes!""I want to try the food you cooked tonight."He said as he handed his suit jacket to the butler, his black eyes scanning my face.Not only was i surprise, but also the butler who was beside the corner was also stunned as I could see his eyes wide opened. I blinked and asked the butler, "Do we have poached chicken in the house?""Yes," the butler quickly replied."I'll go change first and then come down to make something, okay?" I told Rufus.Rufus nodded."Alright!"I turned and headed up the stairs. After changing, I went back to the kitchen to make hainanese chicken rice.A few minutes later, Rufus and I were seated at the dining table enjoying the hainan
Rufus POV I lay in bed, unable to shake the images of Selena from my mind. Memories of our dinner together and the moment i brought her tonight flooded my thoughts. Her innocent face kept flashing before me, causing frustration to build within me. "Ugh," I groaned loudly as I sat up in bed. It seemed like another sleepless night. I let out a sigh and mind link one of my guards. "Yes, Alpha?" came the response. "Fetch Beta Davies immediately," I ordered before ending the mind link It had been too long since I last went for a run. Maybe it would help clear my mind. I made my way to the dressing room, quickly changing into something simple before returning to the bedroom and leaving the room. Beta Davies was already waiting for me when I arrived. "You called for me, Alpha?" he asked. "Yes! Still not heard from Lillian?" I asked. "No Alpha!" He replied and I nodded before murmuring. "I can't sleep," I admitted. "Is there anything you need, then?" Beta Davies asked.
Selena's POVRufus's words echoed in my ears, "seven different kinds of food that I like.""How am I supposed to know what dishes he likes?" I complained as I left the villa and headed towards the car garage.I stood there as the driver raised his hand to scratch the scar at the corner of his eye and asked cautiously, "Ms. Selena, you're late.""Oh." My face turned red instantly when I saw the driver's slightly upset expression.Why did he look upset?I silently sighed as I sat in the car.The car smoothly drove down the road.After a few minutes of driving, as the driver was about to turn at the next intersection, a large truck suddenly came straight towards us.Out of nowhere, something like a bullet flew towards me and landed on my forehead.*Ahhh!* I could hear my wolf whimper in pain.*Meeka,* I tried to reach her but couldn't."Ms. Selena, your forehead...""Keep driving! I'm fine. It will heal soon," I managed to say, my vision starting to blur.The driver nodded and quickly tu
