ALPHA DUNCAN’S POVAfter I spoke with Selena, I felt a sense of connection with her. We seemed to have a lot in common, and I was excited to see what she would bring to the pack. I returned to my room and lay down on my bed, feeling at peace. I closed my eyes and before I knew it, I had drifted off to sleep.I dreamed of running through a forest, my pack by my side. We were happy and carefree, and I felt a sense of contentment I had never known before.Then, I saw a shadow in the distance. The shadow grew closer, and I soon realized it was a wolf, bigger and stronger than any wolf I had ever seen. Its fur was black as night, and its eyes were a deep red.As it came closer, I felt a sense of fear. I wanted to run, but I was frozen in placeThen, I heard a deep voice. “You cannot run from your destiny.” It said. “You must face it head on.”I looked at the wolf, trying to understand what it was saying and what it meant by I cannot run away from destiny. What was I running away from?Wha

Selena's PovI wasn’t exactly sure where I was going, but something about this place just didn’t feel right anymore. After watching Alpha Duncan kiss Muna, I told myself I wasn’t going back to him. A cheat like him doesn’t deserve someone like me.I thought we were beginning to click and start something new, but it was all a sham.The very thought of going back to Alpha Duncan’s pack sent shivers down my spine. He was always causing trouble, always saying what he doesn’t mean and it’s annoying!Yet, there were sometimes I found myself missing him. Maybe I would have waited and see if he was going to explain to me what happened between him and Muna. I always knew that Muna was so obsessed with him, but why give her more edge to continue.Why was I missing him? Perhaps it was merely his touch that lingered in my memory. The way we kissed the first time and even at the pack’s party was amazing. “Come on Selena, Snap out of it!” I told myself.It’s remarkable how emotions can deceive us

SELENA’S POVI considered my options, realizing that I had been walking for days without food and I was starting to feel weak. I though back to how I should have packed some supplies before leaving my brother’s pack, but there was no point in dwelling on the past.I needed to face the reality of my situation and accept the grim possibility that I could starve to death in the wilderness.Maybe this would be the end of my journey, a sad story about a lone wolf lost in the woods.But a spark of hope flickered inside me. Perhaps I could hunt for food to ease my hunger.I was walking through a forest, not sure where I was going or what I would find. I was on edge, not knowing if I might encounter someone who would cause me trouble. I was hungry, but I had to be careful.Just then a delicious scent of fresh bread was coming from somewhere, but I couldn’t tell where. It was like a beacon, drawing me in.I followed the scent, determined to know where the aroma is coming from.As I followed th

SELENA’S POVThe next day, as I descended the stairs, I heard the warm voice of old woman. “Good morning, young lady! I hope you had a pleasant night in my apartment.” she greeted me.Yes, ma’am, I did. I’ve really enjoyed your hospitality so far, and I’m incredibly grateful,” I said, expressing my appreciation.“Come come sit down right here. I’ll fix you some breakfast.” she said.“No, don’t you worry ma’am. I’ll be on my way. I don’t want to be a burden anymore. You have been so hospitable and I’m really grateful.” I said politely.“Nonsense, young lady.” she exclaimed, dismissing my concerns.“You’re not a burden, and I’m glad to have someone to enjoy my cooking.”“Thanks, Mrs….” I trailed off, realizing I didn’t know her name.“It’s Mrs. Anna Louis.” she introduced herself. She turned away to attend to something, and while I waited, my eyes fell upon the beautiful tulip, my favorite flowers.“They are absolutely beautiful.” I commented, unable to resist their charm.“well, I do h

SELENA’S POVI lost my husband around two years ago, my dear. It was an incredibly tough experience, perhaps the most challenging I've ever encountered. All of a sudden, I found myself entirely alone in this world, as though I had lost everything. The feeling of emptiness was truly overwhelming, and there were instances when I considered giving up.A deep sigh escaped her lips, her attention now on transferring the eggs to another plate. I could perceive the intensity of her emotions as she carried on."He was my entire world, my beloved Patrick. In one instant, life was stable and foreseeable, and then, everything vanished. I couldn't help but speculate whether there existed an alternative course of action, something I might have overlooked." Mrs. Anna said., sadness in her eyes.I extended my hand, gently making contact with hers, offering a small comforting gesture."I can’t imagine how difficult it must have being for you, Mrs. Anna. The inability to be with the one you cherish
