Everything is now over: Gianna is gone, the Winterfang Pack has faced severe consequences aside financially, and I have finally moved on.

The scars remain, yes, but me and my mate’s priority is rebuilding our lives. Our future.

“Here’s your favorite chocolate cake,” Paxton handed me the plate. I received it with both hands. “My beautiful mate is always captivating,” he praised. The sun was setting and it somehow drenched me and my white dress in gold and orange light.

I blushed and stuck out my tongue. He laughed.

The lake was so beautiful here, especially at this hour. I know the Silvernight Pack’s lands have access to the beautiful scenery that's why me and my mate cherish this pack so much.

“Does it still hurt?”

I knew what he meant.

I set down the fork and the plate and shook my head, but then I looked at him again and I willed my tears to remain at bay. “It’s just...it’s something that we’ll never erase, love. The Moon Goddess knows that.”

Paxton caressed my face. And for once,

    Short Story's Blurb:For years, I ignored the signs, swallowed my pride, and told myself that Alpha Jonathan was mine. But tonight, as I watched him dance with Emilia, his so-called "friend," something inside me snapped. Their closeness, their whispered words-I'd seen it all too many times, and I was done pretending.At that moment, I decided I was done being second best. Standing, I met his surprised gaze, steady and unyielding. "I, Anastasia Stephens, am breaking up with you and severing our bond. I reject your love and affection from now on." Finally, I was choosing myself.***Chapter 1"They certainly love each other, don't they?" I compelled myself not to glare at Beta Homer as his words hit close to home.I crossed my arms, a displeased grin split my lips. "Oh, they've been doing that many times that I felt like the Alpha's personal Omega rather than the actual Alpha's girlfriend.Alpha Jonathan, my boyfriend of four years, is dancing closely with Emilia, another Beta's daugh

    I didn't let myself fall as I strode away. I clutched my chest as I turned around, the pain of the breakup and rejection clawed its way past my heart and into the core of my soul.My tears fell on their own accord, and I didn't stop even when I called for a taxi.I can still hear Jonathan's words earlier even when the taxi was already moving. "Don't mind her, she's just being fucking dramatic."Was I though? Was it dramatic for calling out your boyfriend and his bestfriend-feeling-girlfriend that they're acting more of a couple than the Alpha and I ever was?Even with the breakup, the pack party continued lively. The dancing and music have become even more vivacious since my departure.But I don't care. Everyone knew I was upset and they knew I wouldn't care about Jonathan on the floor, clutching to his chest too.If they gossip about me being heartless, then I'll show them heartlessness.The ride to my apartment took longer because of traffic. When I opened the front door, I already

    When I woke up the next day, Alpha Jonathan was gone. He never returned since that tiptoeing of his to answer Emilia's call.I was thrilled about this since I no longer had to worry about eating with him or hearing his second round of making-up excuses that Emilia and him have nothing between them.As I prepare myself a simple breakfast of a boiled egg and black coffee, I realize I can actually wake up every day without Alpha Jonathan after all.As I worked my day as a nurse in the pack's hospital, Alpha Jonathan sent several missed calls. He called repeatedly. Thankfully, I managed to put my phone in silent mode as part of the working hours rules."You're not going to answer that?" Dr. Alex whispered behind me and I almost yelped. We were both in the elevator as we headed home."No. I'm going home anyway." My entire day went smoothly and I went home feeling very satisfied.But I immediately dropped my satisfied smile when I opened the door to my house. The smell of cigarette already

Cold sweat starts to form on my forehead. Before I could turn around, he immediately lunged at me and grabbed my arm with such force that I cried. "Anastasia, are you avoiding me?""Of course, I am. We have already broken up and it is right that I avoid you and you leave me fucking alone." "Where were you?" his voice dropped to a whisper."From

He even stayed with me at the Dawn Thorn Pack's hospital to finish some paperworks before Dr. Alex dismissed us. The Alpha stubbornly stayed with me all day and then went home with me as well.I couldn't argue further so I just let him.When I got home, as soon as I opened the door, there were already people there: Jon's friends and Emilia, including Beta Homer.They have prepared a table full of delicious food as if welcoming Jonathan back that they're glad they've seen him again for so many decades.It was only three days.Even with the food's appetizing look and mouth-watering smell, I feel nauseous.Emilia instantly met my gaze. "The Alpha only went to Homer's house that day and now you have to be dramatic and go to another pack without the knowledge of the Alpha? As the Alpha's girlfriend, you

    'It only happened once, Anastasia.' I chuckled mirthlessly at Jonathan's words earlier. Only the dead would believe his lies.Although it made me vomit, I gulped down the bile that rose to my throat at the foul picture I received."Really? Is this all that you can do, Emilia?" I texted the unknown number and then blocked it right away.I went back to sleep as though I just dreamed all of it.***Dr. Alex approached me the next day. The Dawn Thorn Pack wants a Head Nurse as their current Head Nurse resigned after being married to another pack's Alpha.Alex has approached me with several offers from other packs but I rejected all of them because I don't want to be far from Jon.Now that I'm free from him and single, I immediately volunteered for it even when he didn't offer it to me at first."As soon as they mentioned Head Nurse, I immediately thought of you. But then I remember you always rejected all the opportunities I laid before you so I didn't tell you right away. What makes you

    "Don't worry, I was once in a relationship like that," Alex explained as soon as we got to our hotel room. "They're dangerous, not because they're obsessive, but because they no longer see the need to respect you. They see you as a possession of theirs that they'll chase even to the far end of the world." "Thank you," I inhaled. I found myself wandering to the window and there, Jon was standing outside. Thunder cracked the distance and soon, the rain started to pour. Alex saw him too."See. That's why."I understood what he meant and right now, instead of hatred, I feel sorry for Jon. He no longer feels the need to live. He doesn't know how to let go as if what he and Emilia have possessed him with intense guilt that he thinks the only way to solve it is to prove to me we can still be together despite what happened.Well, what's done is done.I dialed Emilia's number and spoke in a flat tone. "Stop letting him go out and make a scene." Dr. Alex tossed me a subtle smile. I just shook

Chenault howled, and it halted the fight between the Rogues and my pack for a heartbeat-before returning to the chaos.I immediately went for Deanna, who was already crying while hugging her wolf stuff toy. Chenault swiped once at the Rogue that pounced at her and blood sprayed. She growled and the Rogue stepped back, not realizing the river was the one behind him.A splash wet my paws but I was already moving.I urged my daughter to climb my back. She was just one foot away when we were knocked down by two black wolves. Green and blue eyes respectively met my Chenault's amber gaze.

    After that day of telling the truth to Miles, he didn't come home again. Clarke hasn't even contacted me since.One day, while I was scrolling through my phone, I received a photo from Miles.Coincidentally, Miles' car stopped by the road to where I was sitting on a bench.The passenger-side window rolled down, revealing my former fiancé's handsome face. "Get in. I'll take you home."Nichole waved at me from the driver's seat. "Gayle, we came to pick you up. You're our friend after all."They looked like a couple just swinging by to pick up a friend. I forced myself to stand up and willed myself not to vomit on their faces.Miles seemed to sense my actions as he got out of the car before I could sprint away and grabbed my arm. "How long are you going to keep this shit up?" his tone was wholly frustrated and less angry."As long as you keep doing this 'I'm the best boyfriend' kind of shit." Miles didn't say anything else when I just brushed past him. Of course, I rejected his offer by

    He stood up and quickly hugged me. We both fell back on my bed mattress. "I didn't marry Nichole."His breath was warm on my cheeks but my hand didn't dare move as I tried to caress his face."Miles..."He swallowed and stared at my lips. "Tomorrow night, I'm rescheduling our wedding. You'll apologize to Clarke and the entire Wolf Moon Pack. Nichole will be there too."My broken heart cracked into a thousand broken pieces again. "So I was the one who's wrong yesterday?"He inhaled a sharp breath and quickly removed his body from mine. "Of course you are. You ruined the whole wedding and-and what you did to Clarke and Nichole wasn't polite at all.""I ruined the wedding?!" I muttered each word slowly, shoving that urge to laugh at the Alpha's statement deep in my bones."Was I supposed to just stand there and watch my fiancé embrace and kiss another female the night before our wedding?"Miles shot to his feet and anger rumbled in his presence again. "I told you it's just a pack traditi

    Despite his gasp of surprise, I kissed him passionately and forcefully.While Miles and Nichole had only kissed for ten seconds, I kissed Clarke for more than thirty seconds, nearly snatching his breath and soul away.As soon as our lips parted, Beta Clarke came to his senses and pushed me away. Everyone was dumbfounded. Nichole was utterly shocked. And Miles...his furious stare could bring down the heavens.Clarke's past reprimands echoed in my head:"Gayle, how many times have I told you that Miles and Nichole are just good friends? Hugging your friends and kissing them is completely normal. I don't get why you're so jealous of them.""We feel sorry for Miles, dealing with a controlling and obsessive freak like you. He's got no freedom at all.""If it were me, I would have just left you and married Nichole. You two shouldn't even be together for eight years!"I looked at Miles with a triumphant gaze as I spoke, "Well, it seems I just did my own pre-wedding pack tradition of kissing

    "Gayle, what's your deal?" Miles' breathing was uneven as he looked around and then back to me. "Okay, I'm sorry for the slap earlier but you triggered us!"Miles grabbed the bouquet from Nichole's hand and threw it to the floor, scattering the red and pink petals everywhere. The whole pack was just watching us beneath their gossipful noses.When I didn't answer, the Alpha finally lost his temper and shouted, "Gayle Snow, where did I go wrong?!"I let out a cold laugh as I closed the distance between us. "How could you be wrong, Miles? It's me who was always wrong, aren't I?" I paused as I glimpsed Nichole and somehow, she stepped back. "You're foolishly perfect, Alpha. There's nothing wrong with you."But Miles scented the sarcasm and the immense anger bright in my eyes. "Gayle, this is just a pre-wedding tradition. I'm sure the Snow Moon Pack also does that. Why are you angry?""I'm not. I'm just..." I threw Nichole a glance for emphasis. "I'm just tired."I want this drama to end s

    The slap was full of anger and despise. Almost as if he was not the Alpha Miles I came to love for the past years.“And that,” I announced with a furious grin as I pointed at him, “ladies and gentlemen, is why I’m not fit to be married to Miles. I won’t marry an Alpha who beats his Luna in front of his pack.”“Miles!” Nichole’s call cut through the tension. And I saw how the Alpha’s expression softened at his bestfriend's behest. “Please,” she pleaded. I don’t know what she’s begging of him but it was enough for me to step back and clenched my fingers to a fist.Looking at both of them, it seems the Alpha I love only care about Nichole. It seems as if I never existed in his life even though I did everything I could for him. I offered my heart and mind and soul to him. I gave him everything I had. Yet, he only returned his affection to me for the first four years of our relationship. As soon as Nichole returned after studying from another pack, Miles changed. Everything fucking cha

    "You should set that room on fire." Celia, my Beta and bestfriend, snarled beside me."No need for violence when their kissing is already violently against the ethics of to-be newlyweds.""It seems Nichole doesn't know what boundaries or respect are." Celia huffed, "And yet you're fine with that?"I shrugged and sighed, lowering my gaze to the floor as I massaged my forehead.In the past, I would have screamed at everyone and become the jealous violent monster Miles described me to be. It would have ended in an ugly pre-wedding party and an even uglier argument between me and Miles."It seems I'm the only one who doesn't know that Nichole and Miles are more than just friends-opposite to what he constantly growled at me."Celia scoffed, "You see the pack's reaction. All of them know what's between the two. You're just the one being fooled by your Alpha."Indeed, in the past years, Miles would often call me out for having dirty thoughts between him and Nichole. He would be utterly disap
