Elena's POVThroughout the day I engross myself in work trying to forget my interaction with Pierson this morning.He was right. I was angry at myself for reacting the way I did, but I wasn't going to admit that to him.When he touches me I forget about the past. It feels like we're the only ones there in that moment. It feels so right. I used to daydream what it would be like if he had chosen me. Where we would be now and how different our lives could've been.I shake my head clearing my thoughts. I don't want to be thinking about him. I should be thinking about my date with Noah tonight.Just thinking about Noah makes me smile. Maybe something can happen between the two of us. I know I wouldn't mind it. He's the kind of guy every girl dreams about having. When I finish up with work I lock up and head to my room to get dressed for tonight. I look through my closet and decide on a navy blue floral lace dress that has a rounded neckline and three quarter sleeves. I pair it with some

Elena's POVIt's now been a few days since my date with Noah and the end of my first week at work. It's been eventful and honestly it feels way longer than that. I told Em to meet me for lunch today so we can talk and I can give her all the details she's been waiting for.I enter the small diner we agreed to meet at and look around to see her seated in a corner booth at the back.When she spots me she waves me over and stands to hug and greet me."How are you?" I ask her."That doesn't matter. Tell me about your date," she says eagerly getting straight to the point.I roll my eyes. Always the impatient one.Before I begin I take a seat and the waiter comes over to take my drink order. Em already ordered my food before I got here, so once done she saunters away.She looks at me expectantly."It went well," I tell her.She looks at me incredulously."I came here for the good stuff. You better stop being so vague or I'm going to throw a fit and turn this place upside down," she says in
Last Chance Chapter 15
Today the pack has decided to throw Noah a twenty-eighth birthday party. He didn't even want one, but I told him he deserved it and the pack just wanted to show him how much they appreciated him for all the good work he has done around here.I told him I would meet him there, so currently I'm walking to the kitchen towards the big French doors that lead outside to the backyard where the party is being thrown.As soon as I walk out I can hear chatter, laughter, and music. The party is already in full swing.People are scattered around the enormous backyard in groups mingling and drinking while others are at the buffet or dancing to the loud music being played by the dj. Lanterns and fairy lights are placed around the perimeter of the yard illuminating the clear night sky and a huge banner stretched across the entrance way reads "Happy Birthday Noah."My eyes scan the yard looking for the birthday boy himself. It doesn't take long before I'm able to spot him. He must've felt me lookin

After the party I head to my room for the night feeling drained.I turn the corner of the hallway and come to see Pierson leaning against my door waiting for me.I think about turning around, but he instantly looks up as if sensing my presence right away. I just want to go to bed and to do that there's no other way than going the way he seems to be blocking. "Hey," he greets me."What is it Pierson?" I say tiredly skipping the pleasentries. He must want something. He searches my face almost as if he's trying to look for some sort of answer. His green eyes are boring into mine and it's making me feel slightly on edge. I shift my weight from one foot to the other."Do you really believe there's nothing here for you?" He finally says.His question catches me by surprise. I don't understand it. Wait, is that why he stormed off the way he did? Was he mad that I didn't think he was a good enough reason to stay here for? What does he expect we're not even together?"Why does it matter to

"When you walked into class six years ago and we locked eyes I couldn't be happier that you were my mate," Pierson begins.It's so weird to think back to that day. I remember that feeling too. It was the best feeling in the world. It felt so invigorating and like something I have never felt in my life. "I always found you quite interesting. You were so quiet when you lived in the pack house and after your mom died you just disappeared. At school I would steal glances at you and always had this weird fascination to know more about you. To know the mysterious blue eyed girl who sent my heart racing everytime I even thought about her. When you walked into class and I felt the pull I wasn't surprised. It's like I always knew you were supposed to be with me. The universe was just confirming it," he confesses.My chest squeezes tight and I feel dazed. I still have so many questions to be answered, but I know I should let him continue."But then I remembered Rachel..." His eyes stare intens

Pierson's POVIt's been a few days since I've seen Elena and I feel a hundred pounds lighter. She knows. She knows I have always wanted her and still do.I meant what I said. I'm going to make her mine. Noah will not have her. I thought about her every second of everyday when she was away. I can't let her slip through my fingers. Not again.I open the door to my father's room and cross through the darkness over to his bed.I sit in the soft black recliner placed next to it and turn on the lamp that lies on the table beside me. The room fills with a soft dim glow. I look at the bed and see his peaceful sleeping body. His thin, dark hair is swept across his forehead and the same eyes we share are closed hiding the pain I see in them when they are open. He looks thinner from the last time I saw him. He's cheeks are hallowing in and he looks pale. My frown deepens. He doesn't look good at all.I ball the white sheets next to his bed into my hands and lower my head. Why can't I take the

Pierson's POV I take my dad's advice and head down to Elena's office with twelve long stemmed roses and a box of chocolates.When I arrive outside the door I start to over think my plan. I look at the contents in my hands. Isn't this to Valentinsey?Before I can turn around and back out I hear a small voice behind me, "Pierson?"I turn around and am met with those gorgeous blue eyes."Hey Elena. I was just looking for you."She looks to my hands. "I got these for you," I tell her while handing each item to her.I scratch the back of my neck nervously. She looks a little confused, but I can see her small smile. "Thank you. That was very sweet of you." "You're welcome." She sniffs the roses. "So I was wondering if you wanted to go get something to eat with me?" I ask her.She stops her action and freezes. Now she looks nervous. Her mouth opens once and closes."We can just go as friends if you want. Just a quick bite, that's it. It doesn't have to be a date," I add. She looks at me,
Last Chance Chapter 20
Elena's POV I run around the corner before he can see me and peek to see if I've been caught.Noah looks through each door. In and out. In and out. When he checks the last door he scratches his head and glances around before walking in the opposite direction of me.I turn my head back around and take a deep breath as I sink into the wall.I know I'm a coward, but I can't face him right now. Not after what Pierson has told me and not after our kiss. My life feels like a complete and total mess right now and I don't know how to de-mess it. De-mess? Is that even a word? Uhhh, what's wrong with my brain. It's supposed to be a doctor brain. It should know things.Wow that didn't even make any sense either."What's wrong with you?" Someone whispers in my ear. The sound startles me and I jump off the wall holding my chest to keep my heart from jumping out.I look to the person who almost gave me a heart attack. "Don't do that Em!" I whisper screech at her. I forgot we were meeting today fo
