Ashton's POV

I leaned back against my car, arms crossed, waiting for Rosie to finish up with work. Since I had volunteered to be her Chaffeur, I had to stick to it.

It was 5:46pm. Rosie did close by 6 pm. But I had gotten here 15 minutes earlier because she hated staying extra minutes at work.

The evening sun cast a golden glow over the parking lot, and I watched as workers trickled out, chatting amongst themselves, laughing and stretching after what I imagined was a long day. But Rosie hadn't

    Candace's POV This man's presence fills the room before my mind even catches up to what I’m seeing.Xylus.The new Alpha. The man I’ve spent the last twelve hours cursing to hell and back. The same man who, apparently, thinks he can order people out of their homes like he’s sweeping crumbs off a table. The same man who demanded everyone attend pack training like we’re suddenly soldiers in his private army.And the same man whose face… Holy shit.I blink hard once, twice because my brain refuses to accept the image in front of me.He looks exactly... exactly... like the man in one of my portraits. The same stone-cut jaw, same intensity in the eyes, same broad shoulders and the same dark, slightly messy hair that looks like he’s been running his hand through it all night. This isn’t possible.I painted that portrait weeks ago. From a dream. Not from real life. Not from someone I’d ever met. Dreams don’t walk into your room as living, breathing, annoyingly handsome disasters.But he’s

    Candance The knocking starts like whoever's outside is trying to break the damn door down.Bang. Bang. Bang."Go away," I groan, rolling over and shoving my face deeper into my pillow. Can they just let me exist? Seriously. Death would be quieter than this crap.The banging gets even louder. Of course it does. I just had one of the best dreams of my life, and this dipshit had to ruin it."Candace! Open up! You're late!" Kristen's voice tears through the door like a chainsaw.Right. Her.I should've known. Aside from my now late father (may his soul rest in perpetual chaos), the only other human deranged enough to bother me this early is my best friend Kristen. The same Kristen who has never heard of privacy, boundaries, or knocking like a normal person. All sarcasm fully intended.I peel myself out of bed like a dehydrated worm and stomp toward the door. My hair is a full-blown menace, curls shooting out in every direction like angry vines. Do I care? Absolutely not. I pull the door

    DominicIs there anything more exciting than the thrill of an engagement night? I actually wish she chose me... even though I'm so fucking jealous. I keep telling myself not to be jealous, but why wouldn't I be? It could have been Ashton. He was her best friend, and he got to be her mate... while I was the jerk who rejected her the moment the Moon Goddess announced her as mine.Ashton deciding to leave the pack makes me panic. Yeah, I'm worried. He claims he isn't compatible with Rosie... but fuck that. I feel like he understands her more than my stupid, jerky self ever could. And I just hope I don't fucking screw this up again.Mom's death still hangs over me, but I need Rosie. As my Luna. To rule this pack beside me. The Shadow Pack is merged with ours now... and Xylus is the Alpha of their side.Birthday is supposed to come with bliss, but I take the ulterior motive to make her mine... for good. I want to make this step, this big, terrifying, beautiful step.Everything is planned.

    ROSIEEveryone deserves a happy ending... but mine feels like it's crashing straight into tragedy. Luna Sarah is gone. Ashton has left the pack. And I'm left with just Dominic and Xylus.When Dominic finds out Ashton left... he doesn't react the way I expected. He doesn't panic. He doesn't ask anyone to go after him.He just says, "It's his choice. If leaving gives him peace, then I'll support him."And I don't know if I'm the selfish one here... because I miss him. Even though the bond is gone, even though everything changed... Ashton was the only true friend I had.It's Dominic's birthday today. But with Luna Sarah's mourning still going on, he says he doesn't want any celebration. He doesn't want no parties and visitors. No one stepping foot in the pack house.I'm banned too... well, not banned, but politely told not to come over unless it's for dinner.Which is basically the only normal routine left between us.But even if he said he doesn't want a birthday... I'm still baking him

    ROSIEIt's been a week since the entire incident. I'm still trying to get used to my daily life, but something feels off. I don't know what's wrong exactly... but for some reason, Ashton doesn't want to talk to me.He's always avoiding me. He always says he's busy, always rushing somewhere, always pretending he has something urgent to do.But I'm not stupid. I feel it.Something is up with him... and he's hiding it with the same excuse every time... "I'm busy."Did I suddenly become a plague after becoming a Celestial wolf?For fuck's sake... even if I was a plague or a deformed bunny, I was once his mate.We kissed, shared a bond... had sex...I just can't wrap my head around it anymore.And to stay sane, I bury myself in unnecessary work.Dominic still talks to me, but even with that... there's this fear in the back of my mind that one day he'll wake up and decide he's "too busy" too.He's the Alpha, if he pulls away, what am I supposed to say?I'm honestly obsessed with the flower

    ROSIEIt's a full house again. Xylus has successfully transformed my room back to what it was before, except for a few of my favorite items that were burnt. Some things were recovered, some weren't.It's over. Like... it's fucking over. That joy hits me again, that feeling you get when you finally know you actually killed the man who destroyed your home. The man who ripped your joy away.The man who denied you the chance to experience what childhood really is... what it means to have parents.Xylus's normal life was robbed because of him too.He was forced to become a young parent at an age when he should've still been living freely.And honestly... my biggest worry is him.He has never had a life outside of taking care of me.It's been three days since I woke up and realized I slept for three whole days.Everything feels normal now... aside from the fact that Xylus is still hovering over me and stuffing me with his delicious pancakes.I missed this..And now it feels like my life is t

    ROSIEAshton doesn't even seem fazed. If anything, he gives me that calm, casual look, like I'm the one making a scene I shouldn't be.He lifts a brow. His facial expressions remains cool and unbothered."I didn't know I was having fun."Ouch.The realization slaps me hard.I'm his friend. His best

    ROSIE I might've watched enough movies and read enough books to know how rowdy clubs can be, but I'd never imagined being in one, never imagined the lights, the noise, different bodies pressed together.But here I am. Officially eighteen. And officially in a club."Xylus would kill us if he found

    ROSIESleep? How the hell could I sleep when Ashton had just dropped the biggest fucking secret of the year?I mean, I've known Ashton my entire life, nerdy, awkward, hot-as-hell Ashton. Yeah, he's always been like the hot nerd. He's brought a few girls around, dated girls with the same hair color

    ROSIEWork was fine. You know, as fine as it could be when you're functioning on a few hours of sleep and a sinful dream that's practically tattooed on your brain."Earth to Rosie."Ella's voice jerked me out of my thoughts, and I turned from the laptop in front of me to stare at her.I blinked.
