Alethea

The past week has been an emotional roller coaster, and I feel like I’m slowly losing my sanity. Everything is falling apart.

I have no job to go to anymore. My superiors at work found out about what happened at the Redwood Pack, and without a second thought, they dismissed me. Just like that. No warning. No chance to explain myself. It hurts deeply to know that after all the years I dedicated to that company, they couldn’t even give me the benefit of the doubt.

But nothing hurts more than watching Declan suffer.

Every night, he cries in his sleep, calling out for his father. His little voice, broken and desperate, makes my chest tighten with unbearable pain. I can’t just stand by and do nothing.

Right now, I clutch him tightly to my chest, whispering soothing words as he screams in his sleep, his tiny body trembling. His eyes are still closed, lost in whatever nightmare plagues him. My heart shatters into pieces.

"Selena, please," I choke out through my sobs, holdi

    AletheaWhy do I keep bumping into this Alpha? Why do our paths keep crossing? It’s infuriating. Just last night, Amelia brought him up, and now—here he is. Flesh and blood. Right in front of me. The universe must enjoy messing with my mind. There’s no way around it—he’s my boss. But hell no, I am not resigning. If anything, I’ll make him suffer. I’ll make him regret what he did to me. He doesn’t deserve forgiveness, and I’ll do everything in my power to frustrate him until he has no choice but to go back to Redwood Pack. I push him out of my thoughts and focus on work, but it’s easier said than done. His presence is like a shadow, unsettling and unwanted. Thankfully, Harvey makes things bearable. He cracks jokes, teasing me about customers in a way that draws genuine, unguarded laughter from me I haven’t heard from myself in a long time. Suddenly I feel a heavy gaze burning into me. My head snaps up, and I see him. Asher. He’s staring—no, gawking. Shamelessly. His

    Asher"Get to work immediately," I say with a firm tone.She stiffens at my words, her body going rigid before she slowly turns around. I know she recognizes my voice—even in her dreams, she would. But right now, my expression remains cold, unreadable. I’m here for business, nothing more. Yet, as my gaze sweeps over her, my resolve wavers. She’s wearing a sleek black dress that hugs her body in all the right places, her curves accentuated with every movement. Damn it, Ally is a walking temptation. My cock twitch in my pants reacts instantly, heat pooling in my gut, but I shove the feeling aside. Her eyes burn with fire, the same fierce defiance she had the day she walked out of Redwood. I know she hates me. And honestly? I don’t blame her. But damn it, after all this time, I’d hoped she might have at least considered forgiveness. "Excuse you?" she snaps, crossing her arms. "I should get back to work? And you’re telling me this as my what, exactly?" I keep my hands tucked in

    Alethea"I wouldn’t have believed something like this existed," Amelia says, her voice filled with disbelief. "What is it?" I ask, my curiosity piqued. "They made your father believe he killed someone. But in reality, it was just a dead rogue wolf. It was all staged when a threat was made against my mom’s life," she explains. "She had a rare power—the ability to heal others. But every time she healed someone, she took on their injuries. It drained her, Ally. She was getting weaker, and she needed a way out. When the opportunity came, they used it." My mind spins as I take it all in. "So, you're saying… There were layers to this? So many things happening behind the scenes?" "Exactly," Amelia confirms. A single tear slipped down my cheek, and I hadn’t even realized I was crying. All these years… they made me suffer. They made my father believe he was a murderer. They humiliated me, and I bore the weight of a crime that never even happened. But I don’t want to dwell on that

    AletheaHarvey smiles brightly as if he didn’t just grip my wrist a moment ago. Maybe he thinks acting casual will put me at ease, but he’s doing a terrible job. The spot where he grabbed me still stings, and I instinctively rub my wrist, trying to soothe the lingering pain. "I'm sorry about that," he says, flashing an apologetic smile as he scratches the back of his head. I cross my arms and glare at him. "What the hell was that for? If you have something to say, just say it." He exhales sharply. "I just wanted to ask you a few questions." "Okay, I’m listening," I say, impatience lacing my voice. "Are you a werewolf?" he asks, his gaze locked onto mine, searching for answers. I nearly rolled my eyes. Seriously? He dragged me out here just to ask if I’m a werewolf. "Why do you ask?" I say cautiously, not confirming or denying anything. "I'm sorry if I’m intruding," he says, his voice softer this time. "It’s just… there’s something about you that feels off. You don’t f

    Alethea He takes his time before finally answering. "Just an old friend. We don’t talk much anymore, though." He shrugs, then offers a reassuring smile. "Anyway, feel at home. I’ll come around later this evening to show you around. Trust me, you’ll love it here." "Thanks," I say, giving him a polite nod before making my way inside. This is the fresh start I need. I gently set Declan down on the couch, letting him rest while we settle into the house. It’s exhausting work, unpacking and arranging everything, but once it’s done, I sink onto the couch with a deep sigh. I grab the remote and flip through the channels, but nothing interests me. Feeling restless, I step out onto the balcony. The town stretches out before me, bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun. I watch people moving about, going through their daily routines, and for a fleeting moment, I wish my life could be this simple. But it never has been. My father’s mistake cost me years of bullying and neglect.
