My entire existence has led to this moment, the day I finally put an end to this misery, the day I pay tribute to the sacrifices of my loved ones, the day I grant freedom to the human race. All it requires is a simple pull of the trigger. I desired this, worked tirelessly for it, but inexplicably, I find myself unable to complete the task. "Do it," Bas urged in a soft whisper, a gentle smile playing on his lips. How could he find solace in a moment fraught with tension? His eyes locked onto mine, a silent challenge. Unable to contain the tears streaming down my face, I felt a flood of emotions. Sensing my hesitation, Bas delicately laid his hand on mine, guiding the gun closer to his chest. "I love you," he uttered to me. No, I couldn't endure this any longer. I shook my head, the pain becoming unbearable. "We do this in 1...2...3..." **** In a world where werewolves coexist with humans, Rebecca faces a daunting prophecy: she must become the mate of the infamous Alpha's son, Bas. Every century, the moon selects a human girl to fulfill this prophecy, destined to bear a child for her mate and then be sacrificed. But Rebecca refuses to accept her fate. Can she defy the prophecy and protect her loved ones, or will her rebellion lead to tragedy? And when she starts developing feelings for someone forbidden, what will the consequences be?

Becca POV"Becca? Becca? Rebecca?" I heard my name, snapping me out of my thoughts. I looked down and realized I was so engrossed with my thoughts I had completely forgotten about the coffee machine, and thanks to that, coffee spilled all over the floor."Are you okay?" Joe asked as he got some rags to clean the counter, while I scrambled to get the mop stick."You've been spacing out... Look, if you need a day off, I can...""No, Joe, I'm okay. I'm sorry, just got distracted," I said, trying to shake off the feeling of being lost in my thoughts."Okay, but please try not to get distracted again," he said as he walked out of the kitchen.With a sigh, I started cleaning the floor. The truth was, ever since the revelation from Bas, my mind had been a jungle of endless thoughts. There had to be a way, I thought, bringing out my phone. I surfed the internet, hoping for even the slightest clue, but there was none.With a heavy sigh, I retrieved the mop and began cleaning the floor. The

With gentle fingers, I traced the contours of his face, taking in every curve and line.I couldn’t believe what had happened. It felt like a dream, one I didn’t want to wake up from. But when Bas wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me close, I knew it wasn’t a dream.“You should be sleeping,” he murmured, his breath tickling my ear. I couldn’t help but smile. “Well, you can’t blame me… it’s not my fault you’re so handsome,” I teased, earning a sleepy chuckle from him.His embrace tightened, drawing me in as he nestled his chin against the top of my head. We lay there in silence, the only sound the rhythmic beat

Bas POV "Finally, back," I murmured as I saw the Hillsville billboard, a mix of relief and anxiety flooding through me. I thought I'd only be gone for a month, but what felt like a month turned out to be two years. Two years of longing to see her face. I missed every beat of her. Her absence felt like torture, and I longed to see her, but I couldn't. Now that I'm back, all I wanted was her. Without thinking twice, I went to see her. The moment our eyes met, it felt like nothing else existed but us. She was as beautiful as ever. I wanted to hug her, kiss her, like my life depended on it, but I froze when I saw the hurt in her eyes. I hurt her. And it broke me. Finally, she looked at me, ignoring me as she walked up to the customers, taking their orders. As she walked back, I couldn't help but step in front of her, blocking her path. I had to talk to her. "Becca," I said in a low whisper. "I... As you can see, I'm busy," she said coldly to me. "Then I'll wait," I said, determ

Becca POV2 Years Later"One coffee cream coming up!" I announced cheerfully, grabbing a tray with a steaming cup of coffee adorned with cream."Here you go," I said with a wide smile, presenting the cup to the customer."Thanks, Becks," came the grateful response."Anytime, " I replied warmly before returning to the counter."Look at you all grinning," Joe, my boss, remarked, noticing my beaming expression as I walked back."Well, today I get to see a very special someone after two years. What do you expect?" I explained with excitement lacing my voice.Today marked the long-awaited reunion with Ravi and Lola after a two-year absence. I couldn't contain my anticipation, my heart racing with each passing moment. Despite my attempts to focus on work, my gaze kept drifting to the clock, eagerly awaiting the moment of their arrival."And my time's up," I said as I pulled off my apron, the fabric rustling softly. "I'll see you tomorrow."Quickly, I got into my car, my heart racing with an

Becca POVSoft morning light peeked through the curtains, casting a gentle glow in Bas’s room. His scent lingered everywhere, wrapping me in familiarity and comfort. As I stirred in his spacious bed, the sheets carried his fragrance, as if he were still beside me. Opening my eyes slowly, I realized he wasn’t beside me once again. Despite his absence, the room felt alive with memories of our time together. The lingering aroma of bacon and pancakes drifted from the kitchen, signaling Bas’s whereabouts. I couldn’t stop the grin from spreading across my face. I had sex with Bas And it was amazing I never imagined he’d be my first, but here I am, grinning like a fool in his bed. He was so gentle and sweet, knowing exactly how to make me feel like I was on cloud nine. My cheeks flush at the memory of how he made me feel last night. I felt a mix of embarrassment and excitement as I buried my head under his blanket, giggling like a fool. “Pull yourself together,” I scolded myself, sittin

I couldn't get enough of her scent, it was like a sweet perfume filling the air. Her hands explored my body, finding all the right spots. It was like she knew exactly how to touch me. She was perfect in every way, and in that moment, I was completely captivated by her. I always thought sex was fun no strings attached, just something you do and get over with but with her, it felt different. My body craved for her. Just the feel of her hands on my chest made me feel like I was going crazy. Maybe it was because I felt something more for her, something deeper. I can’t recall how long we had been on the bed entangled together kissing each other deeply in passion. There wasn’t any rush or hurry she took her time caressing every part of my body while looking into my eyes as if trying to memorize every curve of my

Becca POVI couldn't believe I'd just confessed to Bas. Who would have thought my prom night would end up in Bas's apartment, with us kissing under the moonlight? Did I regret it? No. Would I do it again? Absolutely. For once, I wasn't going to heed the voices in my head; I was going to follow my heart.Perched on the counter, I watched Bas. Tonight, he seemed to exude an irresistible charm, making him even more handsome than usual. His movements around the kitchen were graceful, and there was a certain magnetism about him that drew me in. Every now and then, he would cast a glance in my direction, his smile sending a flurry of butterflies fluttering in my stomach."This should help with the cold," Bas said, placing a steaming cup of hot chocolate in front of me on the table."Thanks," I replied, taking a sip. The warmth of the hot chocolate enveloped me, banishing the chill from the night air. It was exactly what I needed after running around like a madwoman in the chilly night.Turn

BAS POV I tried to ignore it all the rapid thud of her heart, the way her breath hitched, the sound of her hurried steps. I'd set boundaries, drawn lines, but here I was, crossing them once more. Her hazel eyes widened at my sudden appearance, and I couldn't tear my gaze away from her, dressed in the gown I'd sent. She looked stunning, and for a moment, I was lost in her beauty. Approaching her slowly, I stood before her, unable to contain my admiration. "Breathtaking," I murmured, unable to find a word that could adequately capture her essence. Every fiber of my being screamed that I shouldn't be here. I had too much going on, especially with the recent revelation about Tom's deceit. I had no time for this, but despite it all, I couldn't resist the pull to see her. As I locked eyes with her, I sensed her inner conflict, and guilt began to gnaw at me. What was I doing? This wasn't right. "I... I should leave," I muttered, turning to go, but her words stopped me in my tracks. "I

Brown hair styled in a half up and down 'do, with two strands framing my face, My eyes captivating and intense thanks to the eyeliner that outlined my eyes and the mascara that coated my lashes making them long and fluttery. The hint of blush on my cheeks gave my face a rosy natural glow.My hands gently touched the fabric of the dress hugging my body, the soft material accentuating every curve. It was beautiful. No, I shouldn't. I should take it off.As I reached to remove the gown, I hesitated, unable to move my hands. What was I doing?Just then, Lola burst into the room, her eyes widening in awe as she beheld me. “OMG, you look breathtaking. Red definitely is your best color,” she exclaimed, her grin infectious.
