Pain wakes me up first, it's not sharp unbearable pain, it's just uncomfortable.

A dull, steady throb that settles behind my eyes and stretches down the side of my face like a reminder that something happened.

I inhale slowly, taking in the fresh clean air.

My eyes flutter open, the light above me too bright at first, forcing me to squint. The ceiling is unfamiliar, white and endless, and for a moment I just lie there, trying to piece together how I got here.

My head feels heavy and my

    Trey“Get him out of here!”Laina's voice echoes through the hospital corridor even through the closed door, I can hear the panic in her voice.“I want him out! I want him out of here!”I close my eyes, for four years, I have imagined seeing her again, I imagined a thousand different versions of this moment, I imagined her running into my arms, her slapping me, I imagined her screaming at me, I imagined her asking me why.What I never imagined was seeing her terrified because I was standing in the same room as her.I slowly lower myself into one of the chairs outside her hospital room, my clothes still smell faintly of smoke.My hands are scraped and bruised from pulling pieces of burning debris apart, but I barely notice the pain, all I can think about is Laina, the way she looked at me like I was a monster.Like my presence alone was enough to make her panic and maybe I deserve it.

    LainaPresentI sit behind my desk, staring at the documents spread across it, but I haven't read a single word in the last five minutes, my mind is somewhere else entirely.I have this feeling has been bugging me all morning that something was terribly wrong I just can't put my finger on it yet.I pick up another file and force myself to concentrate, it's all numbers and contracts that need my signatures, things that normally require my full attention.I am halfway through the second page when the fire alarm suddenly goes off.The shrill sound tears through the building and I freeze.For a moment, I don't move, then I hear the screaming and my chair scrapes against the floor as I stand.“What the hell is going on?”People are running past my office door as someone shouts something I can't make out, I am still in shock to even moveThen I smell smoke and rush toward the

    TreyI grew up a rogue, I had no family, no pack no place to call home, I didn't even know who my parents were.For as long as I could remember, it had just been me against the world, I learned how to survive before I learned how to live.I learned that food wasn't guaranteed, that shelter had to be earned, and that trusting the wrong person could get you killed.Other wolves grew up surrounded by people who loved them, they had parents who taught them how to shift, elders who taught them the laws of their packs, and homes they could always return to, I had none of that.I had spent most of my life moving from one place to another, never staying long enough for anyone to ask too many questions, being a rogue wasn't easy.Werewolves weren't meant to live alone. We are pack creatures. We were meant to have people around us, people who would fight for us, protect us, celebrate with us, and mourn with us.I pretended I didn't need any of that, For years, I convinced myself that I was perf

    GesareI never believed in fairy tales, not even when I was a little girl, and certainly not when I grew old enough to understand what the world was really like.Fairy tales were stories people told themselves because reality was too ugly to accept, there were no happily ever afters,no perfect love stories and definitely no handsome prince riding in to save a broken girl.And soulmate? That was probably the biggest lie of them all.I had grown up watching my parents prove it.My father was an arrogant, cruel alcoholic with a massive ego and an even bigger appetite for power. He was an Alpha, and he loved reminding everyone around him of it. Money, influence, status, control those were the things that mattered to him, not family and most certainly not my mother. Love never seemed to make it onto that list, he was never really present in my life either, he was always busy at work or with the pack, as he said a powerful man like him a lot was expected of him. My mother was his exact o

    GesareSunlight spilled through the curtains, warming my face as I stretched slowly before the events of last night came rushing back. It had all been perfect atleast it was before our daughter demanded our attention. "Our daughter really does have impeccable timing," I whispered to myself as if she had heard me, a tiny giggle floated through the baby monitor on the bedside table.I climbed carefully out of bed and made my way downstairs.The smell of coffee and pancakes greeted me halfway down the staircase.I rounded the corner to find Kumba standing at the stove in gray sweatpants and a white T-shirt, flipping pancakes with far more confidence than skill.Lola sat in her little baby bouncer nearby, happily kicking her tiny legs while watching him as though he were putting on the greatest show on earth.I leaned against the doorway, folding my arms."You know" I said, "I was wondering why the house smelled like something was burning."Without turning around, Kumba chuckled."I will

    Gesare I couldn't stop looking at her no matter how many times I blinked, she was still there,so tiny and perfect. Lola slept peacefully against my chest, her little mouth twitching every now and then as if she were dreaming. One of her tiny hands rested against my hospital gown, her fingers curled into the fabric like she already knew I was her safe place and I smiled through fresh tears."My beautiful girl."She let out the softest sigh, and my heart melted all over again.I traced the curve of her tiny cheek with my fingertip, afraid to touch her too hard."Do you know how many people already love you?" I asked her like she could talk back. "I loved you before I even knew what you looked like.""I loved you when all I knew was your heartbeat.""And I would do it all over again."Every sleepless night, every doctor's appointment, every terrifying diagnosis.Every kick that reminded me to keep fighting. Every moment of pain.I would choose it all again it it meant I get to Just ho

    Gesare. The first thing I noticed when I woke up was how quiet it was apart from the machines humming and the soft murmurs of the nurses talking at the station down the corridor.The second thing I noticed was the pain.It throbbed through my leg like a slow drumbeat, dull but heavy, reminding me

    Kumba. When Dr. Valentina called and told me she needed to see me immediately, my stomach dropped because it was never good news when she called. She had been my doctor through every brutal stage of my cancer treatment. If she was asking me to come to the hospital in person, it wasn't for small ta

    GesareThe first thing I notice is the sound of machines, beeping around me. A slow, rhythmic sound that seems to echo inside my skull.My eyelids feel heavy, like someone glued them shut, but I force them open anyway. The bright white light above me stings my eyes, making me squint and for a momen

    KumbaThe ultrasound image wouldn’t leave my mind, it was all I could see. No matter how hard I tried to focus on anything else, that grainy black and white picture kept flashing behind my eyes.I shoved the thought away and walked straight through the hospital corridor, ignoring the curious glance
