"Wait a minute!" I shouted. Then I dashed to the bathroom. I quickly brushed my teeth and washed my face. Only after that, I opened the door. Blaze came in as soon as I opened the door with a tray of food in his hands. "What took you so long?" He asked while entering my room. My forehead furrowed. 'What is he doing?' I asked Sierra. 'I dunno. Why don't you ask him? Anyway, I'll sleep for a moment. Take your time. Don't wake me up.' Sierra ordered. 

  Knowing that Blaze was my only hope, I opened a part of my life to him. However, I didn't expect that he would want to meet my father so soon. We just started dating and were still getting to know each other. How could he demand like he would ask for my hand from my father? Well, I almost forgot that he was my mate. So how could I say no?   I sighed. Then, I turned around, putting my arms on the wooden fences, facing again the beautiful scenery of the mountain range.   "Of course you can meet him. But, but not now." I stammered, forcing a smile.   Well, it's true that he could meet my dad, but it's not the

  Blaze's POV   I was left astounded when Ayira ran away from the restaurant. I called her, but she didn't look back at me. Perhaps she was hurt when I yelled at her.   So after I helped Cherry get up from the floor and ensured that she was okay, I immediately followed Ayira. But she was so fast. When I came out of the restaurant, I couldn't see her anymore.   Fortunately, I had strong senses. I followed her scent, and my senses pointed me in the direction of the mountain.   It was only now that I felt grateful

  Fifteen years ago, I recalled when my dad left our house together with our pack warriors. I was playing in the yard at that time.   I rushed to him and clung to his arm. Then I looked up at him as I asked. "Dad, where are you going?"   My dad crouched before me, holding my tiny hands.   "Ayira, dad has to do something important. I'll leave you for a moment to your omega, alright?" He responded with a gentle smile on his lips.   "Can I come with you, please?" I pleaded, making puppy eyes. After my mother died,

  Blaze's POV   My first meeting with Mr. Roosevelt left a question in my head, especially his remarks towards Ayira. There's this voice inside my head telling me that something wasn't right.   And only a dumb person would not notice Ayira's reaction when she saw Mr. Roosevelt. Her pale face and cold hands were telling how anxious she was.   Hence, to confirm my suspicion, I purposely set our next meeting in the villa. And I was right. Ayira got anxious again at Mr. Roosevelt’s presence. I further confirmed my suspicion when I left them alone to get the old blueprint from my room. But Ayira didn't admit to me what happened as to why she accidental
