Lovette POVI sat by Ralph’s bedside, tears streaming down my face as I held his hand tightly. “I’m so sorry, Ralph”, I whispered. “This is all my fault. I should have never put you in danger like that. The creature wouldn’t have attacked you if I hadn't been there. You wouldn’t be lying here now, so sick and hurt.”His injury had worsened and showed no sign of healing. I was worried and scared. If I had known this was going to happen I wouldn’t have suggested we went for a walk.Ralph reached out and grabbed my hand. “Don’t blame yourself. It’s not your fault. I knew the risks when I decided to save you. I would do it again in a heartbeat to protect you .”“But you’re getting worse and worse. I can’t stand to see you like this,” I replied, my voice trembling.“I’ll be fine. I just need some time to heal,” Ralph said, but the effort of speaking seemed to take a lot out of him.“That is exactly my fear, you haven’t healed. What’s wrong? You have the ability to heal, so why isn’t it wor
Lovette POVLuna Celeste walked in, her heels clicking to the ground. She sat down next to the Alpha Derek and nodded, acknowledging the presence of those in the room."Lovette here just escaped the hands of a wolf-like creature that almost killed her. If I hadn't gotten there in time she would have been a victim," Gabriel said to Celeste."And by wolf-like creature you mean?" Celeste asked, urging him to expatiate more."It doesn't look like a regular wolf. It was huge and had features that resembled those of a demon.""Oh I see. Was it the same creature you said attacked Ralph?" She turned to ask me"Yes it's the same one."Gabriel looked at me, raising one of his eyebrows. He didn't know about the previous attack.Celeste stood before the group, her eyes scanning each of our faces as she spoke. "Listen, everyone. I know what you're all thinking, that this creature was just an ordinary wolf. But I can assure you, it was not. And that is why it was able to inflict such damage on Ralp
Ralph POVI slowly opened my eyes, feeling groggy and disoriented. My head was pounding and my body ached, but I couldn't remember why. I closed my eyes again, trying to shake the fog from my mind. Suddenly, a dream flooded back to me. I was losing Lovette, my love. She was slipping away from me, no matter how hard I tried to hold on. I shouted her name, my heart racing with fear and panic.But when I opened my eyes again, I realized that it was just a dream. As I lay on the bed, the thought of losing her fills me with a sense of dread and I can't shake it off even though I know it was just a dream. I slowly opened the door to my room and stepped out into the hallway. My body was still weak from my injury, but I could feel it slowly returning to its normal state. I had been in that room for what felt like an eternity, and I was eager to see what the others were up to.I slowly made my way down the stairs. As I reached the bottom I could hear laughter and conversations coming from the
Lovette POVI was in the middle of getting out of the shower when I heard the window open. I threw on a towel and ran to the bedroom, not even thinking that I was completely naked.As soon as I saw Ralph, I threw myself into his arms, and we started making out like crazy. “I missed you so much,” I said between kisses.“I missed you too,” Ralph replied, his hands roaming over my wet skin.It wasn’t until we broke apart that I realized I was still naked underneath the towel and quickly stepped back, blushing. I started hitting him playfully with a pillow.“Hey! What was that for?” Ralph laughed.“I’m still in my towel! You can’t just kiss me like that when I’m not dressed,” I exclaimed, trying to hide my embarrassment.“Are you kidding me? You’re the most beautiful woman on earth, even when you’re naked,” Ralph said, his eyes sparkling with adoration.I couldn’t help but laugh, “You’re such a charmer, Ralph. But you still can’t kiss me like that when I’m not dressed.”“I’ll make sure to
Gabriel’s POVI sat at the desk in my room, picking at the food Lovette had brought me. The food tasted bland in my mouth. I couldn’t help but feel aroused as I remembered how she had felt in my arms earlier. I wanted more of her, but she had pushed me away. I must admit that it hurt a little. I had always been drawn to her since we exchanged phones, but I never acted on it. I didn’t want to force her into anything, but I was tired of waiting.As I ate, fork in hand, I couldn’t shake off the fantasy of her. The way her long hair cascaded over her shoulders and the way her legs looked in her tight jeans. I couldn’t help but imagine them spreading open before me, inviting me in.But then, reality hit me like a ton of bricks. I remembered the deal she had made with me and how it involved seeing Ralph every damn day until we did something about the creature.I had noticed Ralph liked her so much the day I taunted him on purpose at the pack house. I suspected they were close the day I saw
Lovette POVI was in Neo's room with Ralph, he was still catching his breath after the intense training session that had just been interrupted by Luna Celeste's sudden appearance. I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride as I looked over at Ralph. Even though he wasn't an Alpha, he had managed to beat Gabriel during the training."Nice work out there, Ralph," I said, clapping him on the back."Thanks," Ralph replied, a wide grin spreading across his face. "I can't believe I beat Gabriel.""I can," I said, smiling. "You've been putting in the work, and it's paying off. You're becoming a force to be reckoned with."Ralph's smile faltered a bit. "I'm not an Alpha, though," he said, his voice tinged with uncertainty."That doesn't matter," I said, looking him in the eye. "You don't have to be an Alpha to be a great fighter. You're strong in your way, and that's what counts."Ralph nodded, looking a bit more confident. "Thanks, I needed to hear that," he said.We sat in silence for a mome
Ralph POVLovette stormed out of the living room, tears streaming down her face. I knew she was going to her room to cry, and I couldn't help but blame Gabriel for this whole situation. If he hadn't been so dead set on rebuking her, I never would have gotten angry and ended up in a face-down with him. The guilt weighed heavily on me as I thought about how I had put her in this position.“All thanks to you, you have succeeded in making someone cry” I accused him"Me? Maybe if you hadn’t jumped in from nowhere demanding for her to be treated right!" Gabriel retorted, his voice rising in volume."I didn't jump in from nowhere," I shot back, my own anger rising. “I had been listening to you yelling at her about making mistakes. What did you expect me to do? Sit back and let you reprimand her?”“I was just trying to help. Next time observe before you jump into conclusions” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I glared at Gabriel, fuming with anger. Just as we were about to come to blo
Lovette POVNow everything had been discussed between Ralph, Celeste and I and now we just had to present the matter to Gabriel and for some reason I already knew what his answer would be,"No, this is completely reckless, I will not allow it." He quickly dismissed our plan and my shoulders slumped, Celeste rolled her eyes and approached him with all sultriness in the world,"But Gabriel, this is our only chance to catch this thing. If we do not then it would keep attacking Lovette and we might not be there to defend her all the time." She states a good reason as she rubbed his head but he growled at her and she cheekily took her hand off his head, "do not be upset, but this is the only way to put an end to this problem once and for all.""And why does she need to be the bait? Why don't we use Ralph?" He pointed at my boyfriend and I couldn't stop the snicker that escaped my lips,"Excuse me?" Ralph cocked his brow at Gabriel, he was irritated by his statement, "and why don't we use y
