I was at the live concert with Jalen and Cade, and everything was going great until Jaela suddenly fainted. Seeing Jaela on the floor filled me with shock. I couldn't believe what was happening, and I felt paralyzed with fear. Suddenly, Jalen was beside her, lifting her into his arms.People were starting to gather around us and I could hear the whispers and murmurs from the crowd. Jalen and Cade rushed to lift her off the floor and the whole crowd was looking at us. I was so scared that we were drawing attention to ourselves and I was grateful that I was wearing a veil to conceal my face. People around us were giving me curious looks, and I felt my heart racing with anxiety.Jalen glared at Alex with eyes filled with anger and suspicion, and I could sense the tension between them. I tugged nervously at my veil, feeling a knot form in my stomach. I was so scared that someone would recognize me or that the werewolves would find me. I glanced around nervously, feeling like I was being w

The airport was busy with the sound of rolling suitcases and the chatter of travelers filling the air. Jalen and I made our way inside, following signs to the ticketing counter. The line was long, but we managed to make it to the front after a few minutes.Once we had our tickets in hand, we headed to the security checkpoint, where we had to remove our shoes and place our bags on the conveyor belt. After passing through the metal detectors, we went to our gate to wait for our flight. The waiting area was packed with people of all ages, some reading books, others staring at their phones or sleeping. I could feel the excitement and nervousness building inside me as we prepared to take off for our next destination.I sat beside Jalen, feeling nervous and on edge. I'd always been in the public eye, and I didn't want to be recognized. So I buried my face in his chest, hoping to stay hidden. But Jalen just laughed, pulling me closer and kissing my forehead. "No one knows us here," he said

I stared out the window of my father's private jet, watching the clouds rush by below me. My mind was heavy with thoughts, trying to make sense of what just happened. Thinking about everything gave me a headache and I just wanted to be somewhere quiet and think of what to do. Deep down, I wanted to believe Jalen but then, he wasn't innocent because I was taking him away from his coronation. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to face my dad. He was seated next to me, with a smug, triumphant grin spread across his face and he leaned back in his seat, stretching his arms behind his head like he just closed a big deal or won a contract."You look really happy Dad. Thank you for foiling my plan.""Did he brainwash you? I can't believe you were so foolish to leave your family, your fortunes, or even your job you cared about because of a Lycan. You even stood your husband-to-be on the altar."I drew in slow steady breaths and my hands clenched so tightly. My dad nudged me and I gave hi

The monthly family reunion was the next evening and I was dreading it. My aunties, Wendy and Willow were always so loud and my cousins so boisterous that I found it hard to relax around them, especially now that everyone knew about my relationship with Jalen. I had tried to hide in my room, but my mother had insisted that I attend. "Wear something nice and behave yourself," she warned. As I entered the spacious living room of my dad's mansion, I was immediately bombarded by my uncles, aunties, and cousins, dreading the subtle judgments and wagging mouths from them, I smiled and tried to be polite, but inside I was counting down the minutes until I could escape back to my room."Rissa, baby, I'm so glad that you finally came back to your senses and returned home. What were you thinking being with that Lycan, "Aunt Willow said, her floral cologne choking the hell out of me. I wrinkled my nose as I fought my way out of her embrace."We were so worried about you," Aunt Wendy added, her

It's been three weeks since I separated from Jalen and my dad had been on my case for weeks now, pressuring me to marry Ivan, and I'd finally had enough."Dad, I can't believe you're making me marry someone who's cheating on me," I said, my voice rising in anger and my hands on my hips as I stood toe-to-toe with my dad determined not to back down. "I don't love Ivan, and I never will. He's a cheat and a liar, and I won't waste my life with someone like that."My dad's face reddened with frustration, his eyes blazing as he pounded his fist on the table between us. "You'll do as I say, young lady," he said, his voice low and menacing. "I've invested a lot of time and money into this match, and I won't let your foolish emotions ruin everything.""It's not foolish emotions," I replied, my anger boiling over. "It's basic common sense. I can't spend the rest of my life with someone who doesn't respect me or our relationship, plus we're in love with different people so what's the point?""Re
