All Chapters of A Taste of my best friend.: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“And why aren't you yet ready for your date?” Jax asked as I walked out of the room.I raised my brow, looking down at myself- at the red gown I had on.What does he mean not ready?“What are you talking about? I am ready.”He scoffed, “Okay.”“If you've got anything to say, fucking spit it out.”Jax sighed and dropped the book he was reading on the table to face me. “Today is your two year anniversary, and if my guess is correct, you suspect that your boyfriend is gonna propose today.”I nodded with a grin, the thought sending butterflies in my belly all over again. “Not just suspect. I saw a ring with him a few days back and he's been acting so weird so yeah - I know for sure that he's gonna propose.”Something flashed in Jax's eyes but disappeared so quickly, I thought I must have imagined it.“Okay. And you are going, in that?!”I looked at my dress again, “I do not understand what you mean. This happens to be one of my favourite dresses. Roy got it for me some months back.”“An

The headache that I woke up to was maddening, and I groaned, shutting my eyes tighter as the pain settled in fully, making me feel like I was being hit over the head.Hungover? Check ✓✓.I gradually opened my eyes and bit down a groan as my eyes slowly adjusted to the brightness of the room..When I turned and gasped again when I saw Jax sitting on a chair beside my bed and staring at me with a blank expression.“What are you doing here?” I asked to pull up my blankets and groaned at the headache.Jax just responded by tilting his head, that blank expression still on his face.There was something oddly different about him today. I can't quite pin my hand on it, but he looked different.He felt different.It wasn't just the look but his whole aura now feels more intense and brooding.“Good morning to you too, sunshine,” he said with a deep voice that made me shiver and I gave myself a mental pinch, “do you even remember anything that happened last night?”Do I even remember — what was

I stood there, frozen in a daze, the bustling crowd around us fading into a blur. Jax—no, Alpha Fenriz—smiled at me, that confident grin of his sending my heart into a frenzied dance. My mind was still grappling with the revelation that the man I had known as my best friend was, in fact, an Alpha of a powerful pack. It felt surreal, almost like I was living someone else’s life.“Selene?” he prompted gently, tilting his head as if he were waiting for me to respond. I could see the flicker of anticipation in his eyes, and it unnerved me. What was he expecting? I barely even knew how to process what was happening.I cleared my throat, trying to shake off the shock. “What do you mean ‘I’ll let her decide your fate’?” I shot back, my voice sharper than I intended. “What kind of punishment are you talking about?”His grin widened, but I caught the edge of seriousness in his expression. “Roy and Shayla have been nothing but cruel to you, Selene. They deserve to feel the weight of their actio

The morning light filtered through the sheer curtains, casting a warm glow across the room. I blinked awake, the events of the previous night still swirling in my mind. The banquet had been a whirlwind of emotions—a mix of triumph, anxiety, and confrontation. But now, as the sun spilled into the room, I was left to grapple with the aftermath of rejection.My phone buzzed on the bedside table, pulling me from my thoughts. I reached for it, and a wave of dread washed over me as I saw the notifications lighting up the screen. Messages from friends, family, and—inevitably—Roy. I hesitated before opening the thread with his name, knowing what I would find.**Roy: I thought we had something special. What happened?***Roy:** *I can’t believe you would do this to me.***Roy:** *You’re nothing without me.*I clenched my jaw, anger bubbling to the surface. His words dripped with entitlement and bitterness, an ugly reminder of how easily he had discarded me when it suited him. I remembered the w

The days following the bonfire were a whirlwind of activity. Our pack was gearing up for the upcoming full moon ceremony, an event that brought both excitement and tension. The air was thick with anticipation, and I could feel the collective energy buzzing around us. For me, it was a chance to solidify my place among my new family, but shadows of my past still lingered in the corners of my mind.As the evening of the ceremony approached, I found myself standing on the balcony of my room, gazing out at the forest that surrounded us. The trees swayed gently in the breeze, their leaves whispering secrets that felt both familiar and foreign. It was a stark contrast to the isolation I had felt in my previous pack. Here, I was part of something larger—something that felt like home.“Hey, you’re not going to fall off the balcony, are you?” Jax’s teasing voice broke through my thoughts, and I turned to see him leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed over his chest. His presence was a comf
