“I know I sound very different from the wolf who has been taunting you for almost all your life,” She paused, and I swallowed hard. Joey had been quiet these days, but the least thing I expected was that she had been staying quiet to prepare an apology to me.

She went quiet for a while after her earlier statement. Maybe it was a bit hard for her to say. I didn't say anything. I simply waited for her to continue talking.

She did something like a low purr and continued. “I kind of believe in you

    Ruby's POVEverything happened fast after that.June had hit the ground and the sound she made when she landed was not loud but it was the kind of sound that went through you. I was at her side before I had fully decided to move."June," I said. I crouched down and put my hand on her back. "June, can you hear me?"She did not answer. Her face was turned to the side and her eyes were open but she was not looking at anything. Her hands were pressed to her lower stomach and she was breathing in short uneven pulls."Someone call an ambulance," I shouted toward the entrance of the restaurant.A man near the door already had his phone out. Someone else came out from inside and stopped when they saw June on the ground."What happened?" the man asked."She needs an ambulance now," I said. I did not have time to explain the rest of it.I looked at June's face. Her jaw was tight and her skin had gone pale in a way that was not normal. She was still pressing both hands to her belly and I could s

    “The girl is mean for no reason at all,” I muttered.Sandra laughed shortly. “I couldn't be bothered by what happened to her.”We continued with the rest of our meal, then Sandra spoke again. “Is it just my eyes or do you actually look different?”“How?”“You look more stunning.”“Well, I've actually been going to the gym.”Sandra dropped down her cutlery and looked at me. “Ruby, promise me that you aren't still so concerned about your body. It isn't a crime to be chubby, you don't have to become thin.”“I'm not working out to become thin. I just want to remain fit.”She sighed once again. “I hope so.”My phone rang. I looked at the screen and saw that it was the driver calling me. I picked his call.“Hello, ma'am, Mr. Malcolm was calling to ask where you are and why I haven't brought you back yet.”“Oh. I'm still inside the restaurant. You'd still have to wait longer.”“Okay, ma'am. Thank you. I'll relay the information to him.”“Who is that?” Sandra asked.“The driver. Malcolm assig

    Sandra pulled her plate closer to herself and was already digging into her meal. I picked up the glass of wine and was about to drink when Sandra halted me.She held her own wine glass as well. “We need to toast,” she said as she held her glass.I smiled and held out my glass too. “Here's to the wonderful experience Ruby had.” I laughed at Sandra's statement. Our glasses clinked and then I drank mine and settled the glass down.“What about your boyfriend? You haven’t said much about him?” I asked.“Oh. Josh. We're having some misunderstanding so nothing is happening between us right now. He had been a total douchebag for the past few weeks.”“Awww. That's bad.” I said and took another sip of my wine.Sandra shrugged. “Shit happens.”I was about to take another sip of my wine before I noticed someone familiar walk through the door. Although she was wearing sunglasses, I could tell that it was June. She walked to an empty table and sat.She took off her sunglasses as she sat down and a

    I paused to think about how exactly I should phrase the response. I knew that once I told Sandra about this, she would be excited and might even try calling me. She was my best friend who liked me even before my own wolf liked me. I wanted to tell her that I and Malcolm have had sex.I took a deep breath and typed it. “Malcolm and I have had sex.”Her reply came almost immediately. “What? You don't mean it. Tell me you're lying.”“I'm damn serious, Sandra. It happened yesterday.”She responded with an emoji showing shock and accompanied it with a text. “I can't believe it. How was it?”Like I had guessed, she called me. I quickly declined the call and went back to text her. “I am currently at work. I'll call you later.”Her reply came again. “OMG. I can't believe this. We should definitely meet after work to talk about this.”She didn't give me time to reply before she sent another message. “Relish Bar by 6 p.m.”I responded simply with an “Okay.”She reacted to my message with a thum

    I arrived at work, but with a driver taking me there in my car. Malcolm had insisted that I go to work with the driver. He kept insisting about my safety and how having a driver waiting for me would be safer for me. I finally had to give in.I had touched the flowers that he gave me for longer than I should have and the perfume from the flowers was still on my fingers. I thought about it. They smelled nice. A thought crept into my mind and it was about the contract period. This was the third month of the contract. I had nine more months to go and I couldn't wait to see the events that would unfold during that time.In the space of these three months, I had found my father, repaid my mother's loan and cut her off, drew some more and got hired for a job at the museum.The driver finally pulled up at my workplace. As I opened the door, I could sense the difference in the atmosphere. A few items had been shifted from their original place and some of the artworks weren't in their usual pla

Maybe it was a bit hard for her to say. I didn't say anything. I simply waited for her to continue talking.She did something like a low purr and continued. “I kind of believe in you right now. Don't get me wrong or think that I'm an opportunist who only wants you now that you have secured a contractual relationship with Malcolm or now that you're chasing your art dreams. That is not the case. I know I always wanted a body that reflected my strengths, and I'm sorry for all the ways I made you feel because you didn't fit the image I wanted.”She paused and I hesitated to respond. I was still processing everything Joey was saying. I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact

    I leaned closer to the door and she stopped talking on the phone. I moved away from the door. Who was I kidding? Some werewolves actually had sharp senses and could know when someone else was around them. They could easily pick up the scent.“What's it about the Ruby girl?” Her caller on the other

    The phone vibrated in my hand. I stared at the screen before finally picking the call. I was almost losing hope that he was purposely avoiding my calls.“Hello?”“Ruby,” He responded with just my name.“I've been calling you. You didn't pick my calls.”“I know and that's why I called back. I'm sorr

    The world seemed to tilt sideways. I pulled the car over abruptly, my heart pounded so loudly that it affected my breathing.My hands were trembling again, the same way they trembled when they held Mom's papers, except this time, it felt worse. It felt heavier and crushed my spirit more.“Are you s

    “Everything listed seems believable to me. I took a loan for you, and you've got to repay it. It shouldn't be that hard to comprehend.”My fingers trembled as I held the papers. Mother watched me with an expectant stare. It told me that she saw me as nothing more than a bill, and she finally had to
