"Are you coming over tonight?" My boyfriend Monty tucks a strand of my caramel hair behind my ear, his thumb gliding down the shell all the way down to my earlobe.

My lips part as I lean in and whisper into his ear, "I'm sorry, I have to finish packing, You know, I got accepted to that university I applied to. How about you help me pack the last things?"

"With your dad around? No thanks," He shook his head softly and finished with a soft kiss on my lips.

He's afraid of my father after my dad scolded him when he found us kissing in my bedroom, behind a closed door.

"That was a long time ago, and it's our last night." I pout, putting down my books on the edge of my locker. I wrap my arms around his waist, we're not going to see each other for a very long time, and I don't want to waste a single second of the little time we have left.

But even so, I have to get out of here. We're all graduating tomorrow and I have been saving up to go to university for years.

Over the past five years, I have done every job there is in the pack, well everything I could and was allowed.

My parents and I have a deal, and if I have at least half of the amount to help pay for my tuition, I can leave the pack and go study.

Everything was going according to my plan, and the only thing holding me back was the man in front of me, the man I loved the most. But he could never let me be upset, and he assured me that our bond would never change because of distance. He would come to visit me in the human world, and I could come back on vacation.

When I graduate from University, I could come back for the mating ceremony and get married to him, and he even promised that we could build a house in the far end of the territory, away from everyone and everything.

I was reluctant, but it can work.

I want it to work.

In the face of my petulance, Monty smiles seemingly helplessly and says softly, "Tomorrow morning, you come to my house."

"Uh-huh!" I nodded my head yes with wide eyes.

We were still basking in the sweetness like no one else was around when a loud bang interrupted us.

The loud bang makes every muscle tense as I freeze, and my eyes lock on the devil himself.

"Get a fucking hotel room when you're in heat!" Blaze kicks off against the lockers and combs his fingers through his dark chocolate hair before waltzing towards the exit.

Blaze is Monty's best best friend, our pack's next Alpha, but he's heartless and a jerk.

I hate him and he hates me- and that's the one thing we have in common.

I let go of Monty and said coldly, "Go to hell. Blaze," As usual, he doesn't care about my comeback and looks at us teasingly with a raised eyebrow.

"Blaze, that's not cool."

Monty lowers to his haunches and picks up my books that fell out of my open locker.

Apparently, he's equally unconcerned. Deflating and spreading his hands, he says, "Am I wrong? You guys want to perform a porno here for me? Then start."

"You!" I was just about to scold him when my best friend Nicky spoke up first, "Blaze, you're so bad," There was a smirk in her tone, as if she was flirting. She has been trying to get Blaze's attention for years, but it's an impossible task, that asshole is simply frigid.

He picks his own girl's, and it's never the other way around.

Sure enough, Blaze doesn't answer her, but lifts his chin toward us and asks, "Want me to drive you guys back? I'm tired of this place."

That's the only thing that he's said that I'd agree too.

I am tired of this place too.

***

Ten minutes later. As I walk into the house, it's completely empty and abnormally quiet. sigh in relief as I stack my books on the kitchen table.

I head up to my room to finish packing the last bit of things I need to before I head out.

I lied when I told Monty I still had a lot to pack, but that's only because I had a surprise for him.

How could I allow us to miss our last night!

It was just dark when I arrived at his door. I smile when I look up at his window and I see his silhouette as he takes off his shirt.

A warm sensation stirs inside of my chest, and I smile excitedly.

Just give me a second darling, I'm coming. I lift my leg, ready to stride up the steps when my eye catches something and I freeze.

My heart stills when another silhouette joins him, that of a girl's with long hair and she drags her hands across his chest before pressing her body to his.

What the hell?

What are they doing? Was I being cheated on? For a moment I simply couldn't believe what I was seeing.

I stop in front of the door to inhale a deep breath as my hand stretches out to feel the door and when it's unlocked. I bite down on my teeth as I silently enter the house of my DEAR cheating boyfriend.

I tip toe up the stairs, careful not to fall or let the basket I had made for us hit any corners, but when I push open his bedroom door, the door creaks and they notice me anyway.

    Days, I've spent days not being able to sleep, eat or even breathe properly, and it's all because she said to never come back.I want to respect her wishes, but four days of no appetite and little to no sleep has been making my patience extremely thin.The light bang on my front door has my eyes rolling as I get up, and I wish my mother would accept my request to be left alone.A sense of numbness falls over me as I open the door and directly look into Monty's eyes, "What's up man?" he taps my arm before sliding into my house.I turn, my gaze following him as he stops in the middle of the foyer, looking around, "Nice place,", he beams, but I still don't speak."Are you okay?" he asks, staring at me with strange wide eyes, "I am fine, what do you want?"

I don't know," he shrugs, again."I just want to be friends again, so how has life be

    There was no way that I was going to let Blaze control me, or take me back to that horrendous place that I've escaped.I will never go back there, and I am showing him how serious I am."Do it," she grins like he thinks I wouldn't do it, but he has one thing wrong and that is my determination to stay out of that hell hole.I left the pack for a reason, and if he wants to take me back, it's going to be with my corpse.I inhale a steady breath as I dig the knife into my flesh.I bite down on my teeth as it stings, and I could feel the blood trickling down my throat as I slowly drag it across.Blaze's eyes widen, panic filling them and he screams, "Stop!" he storms closer, and I drop my hand, gulping."I'll leave," he mutters breathlessly, and I drop the knife, "Then go," I croak out and he stops in front of me, his eyes flicking between mine, "Are you insane?" he breathes out, his chest rising and falling fast."I told you that I'm not going back," I deadpan and I refrain from feeling a

    I reach for my car handle, tensing when I hear Monty's voice calling out my name, "Blaze, can I catch a ride with you?" he shouts over the lawn, and I roll my eyes, turning to look at him jogging over.Monty's wearing a white shirt with his dark blue jeans, and I just stare until he stops in front of me."Why?" I ask blandly, and his eyes widen, offense written all over his face."I told my parents I'd meet them there...", "Then take your own car, I have errands to run." I deadpan and his eyes narrow as his brows furrow together."Alright," he takes a few steps back, then he smiles, "See you there," he waves goodbye and leaves.I can't let him drive with me, because I have somewhere else to be first.Driving into the city was peaceful until all the traffic started and my blood started to boil.I'm going to be late if I stop at her house first..."Shit," I curse and change direction.

She's in love with Ryan, and everyone can see it except for Ryan.He's a sweet man, but he's so oblivious to her affection. She brings him coffee every morning, and not the cheap kind, and I know she's been the one staring daggers at the back of me."Good morning," Ryan slides in beside me, and I ignore the rest as we head to a meeting in the conference room."Hi, Ryan," I beam as he snakes his arm around my back, squeezing me closer to him in a tight hug."Are you ready for it?" he grins, looking nervous and excited at the same time.I didn't plan on coming in this early, but when he called me this morning and told me there was a meeting, I quickly got ready and came in."I don't know what it is," I roll my eyes playfully, and his knowing grin intrigues me.Is he planning something?"Do you?" I ask as I realize his hand is still on my lower back. I stop, and his hand slides to my waist before breaking cont

    Guilt is what I feel as I finish myself off while sitting across the road from her house, her silhouette was my show and I could see her from afar for once, I could see the waviness of her hair and the shape of her body.Every fibre of my being wants to ring that bell on the gate, but she doesn't want anything to do with me, and she made that very clear.I wish that I could buy her a gift and spoil her, because today she had a milestone, which I'm very proud of, but there's a bigger piece of me wishing that she wasn't so successful.I have waisted hours and large amounts of money getting rid of her face in public photos and videos too, and it's hard work when she's just becoming more famous.I had to buy pictures worth thousands of dollars just to stop the paparazzi from taking the photos they took of her to the news.I have a special detective on her every single day, watching her for her safety, but sometimes it still doesn't feel enough and that's why I drive out here every single

I do deserve it, because I have worked on that case for months."I'll see you tomorrow," I smile as I turn to leave.I feel terrible that I didn't stay for the cake I noticed, but I don't want Ryan to think that I'm romantically interested in him like he is in me.I fe
