Flora’s P.O.V
Early next morning, I got a surprise visit from my brother before I could head off to school.
“Hey, do you have a minute?” Riley asked as he knocked on my door, his mop of dirty blonde hair sticking to his forehead as perspiration beaded his forehead. Looks like he had been out on patrol duty.
“Riles? Why are you even asking that? Come on in.” I called out as I placed the book I’ve been reading on the nightstand and scooted back against the headboard to make space for him to sit.
“How are you doing, chubby?” Riley smiled as he pinched my cheek before taking a seat at the foot of my bed. “Why don’t you come visit me in the pack house with mom and dad?”
“Because it’s the pack house!” I told him as I rubbed my cheeks with a frown on my face. When was he going to get rid of his stupid nickname? I did not have chubby cheeks anymore. “

Flora’s P.O.VOne week had passed since Riley’s visit to my house, one whole week since I’d been alone with Clay.I’d tried my very best to avoid him as much as I could. I never stayed back in class, especially the ones that I had with him and I was usually the first one out of the classroom. I even made sure that I was never alone. Despite my shy personality, I’d tried to make new friends and stay surrounded by people so Clay couldn’t reach me in any possible way.During assignments, I had often found notes written in Clay’s pretty handwriting slipped into my notebooks but I just kept on dumping them into a box at the bottom of my closet because I just didn’t have it in me to just throw them away.At night, I kept all my doors and windows tightly shut and the curtains drawn so Clay couldn’t come in, even though I knew that a few windows were nothing compared to his Alpha strength.

Flora’s P.O.V“Clay?”I looked around surprised at the empty classroom and then back towards the entrance to find Clay just standing there with his hands tucked into his pockets like he had no care in the world.Seeing him again felt surreal. I knew I would run into him sooner or later and I might as well have to be alone with him, but I hadn’t thought it would be this soon. The impact of him just standing there felt like a punch to the gut. He was just as handsome...just as beautiful. And my whole body ached for him. I wanted nothing more than to run to his embrace and hold him to me forever.And that’s why I had decided to stay away…He wore a teal coloured shirt with black dress pants and a black tie. His hair was combed back with a few stray strands falling onto his forehead. From this far, I couldn’t read his expression; his face was cold, impassive. But when I looked into his e

Flora’s P.O.V“Clay…” I looked around as I regained some of my senses. “We’re in the classroom…”“The doors are locked.” He left a trail of wet kisses down my neck. “And I’ve disabled the cameras.”“You’ve planned this through.” I moaned as he found a pleasure spot and sucked on it with deliberate slowness.“You drove me half crazy, woman.” He groaned against my skin. “I knew I had to get you back before I lost myself.”“We’re not mates.” I reminded him once again.“For the thousandth fucking time, Flora,” he brought his face us to look me in the eyes; the wolf in his voice as he wrapped his fingers around my nape hauled me close. “I don’t give a shit anymore.”With that, he pushed me down on the desk and climbed on top of me.I gasped at the s

Flora’s P.O.V“So…you and Trevor?”“So…you and Clay?”Ruth gave me a wide grin and a wink as she sat up against the headboard.I’d come over to her house after school the next day and she had immediately insisted that I have a shower before doing anything else.“You smell like Clay.” She’d told me straight up. “And my mom’s a huge gossip.” Which was a very true statement. Mrs. Summers always had the latest pack gossip and the Asian cooking classes she taught the other pack mothers three days a week, was just an excuse to exchange even more gossip. I would NOT want to be the centre of that attention.So I took a quick shower and changed into a pair of loose comfy T-shirt and sweat pants. Since I came over at her house often, I always had clean clothing over at her house as she had in mine. And today, after two whole weeks, I finally got to s

Flora’s P.O.VSix months passed by in a blink of an eye. Everything seemed to be perfect. Clay and I had to go sneaking around everyone’s backs to date but there was also a sense of adventure in that.Riley had stopped giving me disapproving glances and he hadn’t informed our parents either. He mostly stayed at the pack house, finishing up his training and he seemed to have given up on trying to break me and Clay apart. At least that how it seemed for now.As for me and Clay, our bond seemed to only deepen as each day passed. I remember my conversation with Ruth and how she had told me to test things out and be in relationships until I find my mate, the one the Moon Goddess, Selene had decided for me to be with forever.But how does one get out of this kind of a bond? It was unique and with each day, it pulled me even close to Clay; even deeper into this relationship. Will I ever be able to look at another man the way I

Flora’s P.O.VGarrick didn’t say anything but he put his hand on the small of my back as he led me deeper into the pack house and down a flight of steps into a large all-white room with several beds inside, some of which were occupied, the white sheets stained red.The pack house was packed with people tonight, but they weren’t running around in awe or making trouble. Everyone was huddled together with the remaining members of their family that wasn't in the battlefield, giving and receiving strength from the bonds they shared. Some had volunteered to help while others looked too scared to do anything but huddle together in the corners.“Flora!” There was relief in Jessica’s voice as the older healer came over to me. Her naturally wavy bronze hair was tied up into a tight bun at the top of her head and the teal coloured dress she had on had dark brown patches of dried blood in them. “I’m so glad yo

Flora’s P.O.V“Here.” Ruth handed me a can of lime soda as she took a seat beside me.I had found her minutes after my little chat with Garrick and we had stuck together ever since, unless any of us were needed at our stations. Everyone was tense and worried and scared and so, Ruth and I had huddled together whenever we could and taken strength from each other.Ruth had been given charge of the submissive teenagers in the thirteen to fifteen range since she was good with kids and she fell in the range between submissive and dominant, although she was more dominant than me but not as dominant as Garrick. She had the perfect dominance for the kids so that they both listened to her and didn’t feel like running the other way.Now, she once again sat beside me after having to rush over to a thirteen year old boy who had fainted from stress. He hadn’t regained consciousness yet but Jessica had been able to get a qu

Flora’s P.O.VA few warning howls went up in the air as I had suspected and I could distinguish Garrick’s call amongst them; but I didn’t stop to think. All I needed to do was find Clay and get him back no matter what.I pushed harder, ran faster through the denser parts of the forest to the borders of our pack where the fight was taking place. I didn’t change into my wolf because I didn’t know when I would need to turn human again.It was a moonless night and the stars weren’t too bright either. It made my heart beat erratically as I looked around with my wolf’s eyes. I didn’t like the dark, never had, never will. And this darkness felt ominous. Omnipotent.But I didn’t have time to give in to my fears and weaknesses. Clay needed me. Something told me he was in danger and I needed to hurry.I followed the direction of the pull. I didn’t know where I was going but somethin
