After I eat the worst breakfast I've ever eaten in my entire life, I find myself in the most lost, bored state of my life.

This is not a condition I'm familiar with. I don't get bored. I have never, as an adult, had nothing to do—there is always something requiring my attention. There is always a problem to solve or a decision to make or someone waiting on my response.

But there is nothing to do here. Literally nothing.

I've already had my two hours of allowed work. I've already made myself the

  • We’re Divorcing, Alpha (On Live TV)   I Knew It

    "Move," I demand, trying to run faster. "I'm moving," Kael growls. We are still terrible at this but we are technically progressing.There are two people running behind us—an assistant producer who is not Mariah, and a random camera guy. We find the clue immediately, right where I saw it, on a laminated card on a stick.Kael doesn’t mention anything about how right I was, he simply picks it up and reads it. Two second later, he blinks slowly and shows me his annoyance before making his face completely devoid of emotion again. “Read the clue out loud, please,” the producer instructs. "Before moving to the next clue," he starts, in a flat tone, "Partners must share one compliment with each other. Both must participate."Kael lifts his eyes to me. I look back at him. The mutual understanding is immediate—we do not want to do this. We are united against it, actually. And it’s the first thing we have agreed on since we got married. We both turn to the assistant producer at exactly the

  • We’re Divorcing, Alpha (On Live TV)   Disclosure

    Elara’s POVI spend most of the day with Adrian and it resets my brain. By the afternoon, I feel like someone grabbed my hand and pulled me out from underwater—and I had been underwater for five years, so I was drowning and the fresh air feels more freeing than ever before.Being around Adrian for hours doing nothing and talking about everything reminded me of who I really am. Of who I was before Grayhound swallowed me whole and spat me out into this valley, without any will to live left. Adrian’s alpha energy fed my child the way his dumbass father should be doing, which has me more awake and energetic than I've been in over a month.Various producers tried to get us to go back to the rest of the group throughout the day, but we simply didn't, and eventually they accepted this, brought us food, and told us to do whatever we wanted until six PM.Apparently, after six PM, we have a mandatory situation with our respective spouses."How angry do you think they're going to be this time?

I have never, as an adult, had nothing to do—there is always something requiring my attention. There is always a problem to solve or a decision to make or someone waiting on my response.But there is nothing to do here. Literally nothing.I've already had my two hours of allowed work. I've already made myself the worst breakfast to ever be made with human hands. And it's only ten in the morning.I sit on the back of my cabin and look at the trees because some people enjoy nature, but the trees do nothing to keep me entertained.All I can do right now is think. I worry for a bit about the terrible situation with the wild rogues, but to be completely honest, I mostly think about Elara. And how she completely lost her mind because of nothing. I’ve been way worse before and she has never reacted like this.

  • We’re Divorcing, Alpha (On Live TV)   Bad Day

    "Elara," I manage to say, a few seconds later, since neither of them seems to notice my presence.I expect her to startle. To sit up quickly and look guilty— I don't know why I expect this exactly, but I expect it anyway.She doesn't do it.Instead, my wife turns her head toward me without moving anything else, she looks at me and sighs through her nose like I am a huge inconvenience. Then she turns her head again, looking up at the sky like I’m not here. "What are you doing, Elara?" I push, "Why are you soaking wet? What is going on?""We jumped in the lake, swam a little," she responds, voice calm, "And now we're drying off in the sun. It's not that complicated.”“But wh—““Can you leave?” She interrupts me, “You're fucking up the vibe. We’re connecting with nature and I know you’re not into that, so… leave."I do not leave. I do not move. I just stand here and look at my wife lying on another man's body while they’re supposedly ‘connecting with nature’ and my brain just goes comp

  • We’re Divorcing, Alpha (On Live TV)   Hold It Down

    As soon as I see the lake, I know what’s going to happen. When I was young, I was too much of a prude to strip down at the lake back home. And Adrian was always too much of a good guy to make me feel bad about it. So we developed the system of jumping in whatever we were wearing, which was deeply impractical and deeply fun at the same time. And something we did almost every day for a long, long time. Which is why I'm not surprised when Adrian doesn't slow down at all. I have just enough time to take a full breath before we hit the cold-as-fuck water.I go under, feel my feet find the bottom, and push up hard, breaking the surface gasping."Fuck! Oh, god," I let out, which is all I have for a moment, and then I notice two figures running toward us from the bank and have one panicked second before I realize they're production staff with long microphones, sprinting to catch whatever we say. I ignore them completely and turn back to Adrian, who surfaces a second later."Holy shit," he

  • We’re Divorcing, Alpha (On Live TV)   Run Away

    As soon as the cameras start rolling, Mariah leads me to Adrian’s cabin before going back to work. I knock on the front door, then I stand there for long enough that I start feeling like an idiot, rehearsing reasons to be here in case Paulie answers, but then the door opens and it's Adrian."Hey, Ella," he says, taking a small step back like he wasn't expecting me at all, which he probably wasn't, "What's up?""Not much. I'm bored and I need to just get away for a bit. Want to skip communal breakfast and go somewhere, just us?"I watch his expression move through confusion, intrigue, and then settle into something that looks like genuine delight. His smile starts growing. Slow and unstoppable."Just like back in the day, huh?" he finally asks, and looks over his shoulder once—a quick, guilty glance at his wife, the one he’s totally going to sneak away from—then he steps out and pulls the door shut behind him, "Let's go. Fast."We walk away fast, then faster, and then we're basically

  • We’re Divorcing, Alpha (On Live TV)   For The First Time

    Kael is standing beside our personal producer, and even from a distance I can tell something is irritating him. The poor girl looks visibly stressed while clutching her clipboard to her chest in fear and explaining something quickly, her expression tightening further the longer Kael stares at her

  • We’re Divorcing, Alpha (On Live TV)   Almost There

    We stand there in comfortable silence for a while. “You know what’s funny?” Adrian says eventually, nudging at the dirt with the toe of his boot, “When we were kids, I genuinely thought we’d end up married to each other.” That makes me almost choke on my tea. I look at him with wide eyes, but Ad

  • We’re Divorcing, Alpha (On Live TV)   All At Once

    Kael’s POVI get out of Elara’s room with as much dignity as I can and walk back to mine trying not to show how annoyed that just made me, but when I throw myself into bed I have no choice but to overthink the interaction. It could be good for the narrative, I suppose. She has to be as much of a b

    I walk all the way to the cabin with Kael shadowing me from behind. And as soon as we’re inside, I walk to my own room.It feels strange to know I have my own space for the first time ever.I’m not sharing a bed with my mother like I did when she was still alive.
