ALEXANDER'S POVI stared at her with disbelief and dissatisfaction. "What are you trying to say?" I muttered. "The sage,you mean ,the sage is your mate? Are you crazy Lucy?" "Yes,Alexander." Lucy bent down her head so that I couldn't see her expression. "He must be a thousand years old man! " I muttered in disbelief. "Why would he take you as his mate,why?" Lucy looked at me suddenly. "Do you think,anyone other than the sage could save me from such a situation? Do you think,anyone other than the sage has such a power to do that? Anyone other than the sage could give me their energies to me and it would match my heart?" She paused a little, "If it were not him,I would be dead for sure."I kept looking at her without even blinking. "And you know ,why am I here at your side?" She added after a while."Why?" I said abruptly. "Cause he told me so." "What?" "Yeah , he told me a few days ago that your heart will stop beating after a few days if I'm away from you for so long." Lucy's

Ruth's POV I looked out of the window - it was dark . There was no glimpse of the moon at the sky that time . The clouds were rumbling as if the sky would fall off anytime soon. The stars were no longer shining - everything that could be seen was - pitch black darkness....I sighed a little while lying on my bed . After coming back from Mr. Alexander's house ,I was feeling so confused and number that I fell on my bed without even changing my clothes. And I dreamt about the same dream that I was having since long enough to remember each and every detail of it too much more clearly. Though the nightmare didn't haunt me anymore since I came here - here in this small town where I was meant to come from a long while ago.... My heart shook with fear as I recalled the conversation with Mrs. Gordon, Mr. Alexander's granny. My head started to hurt again. I got up on my bed and went to the shower to take a hot bath . I adjusted the temperature and stood under the shower while slowly putting

Ruth's POV I moved slightly backwards as I saw the man approaching towards me. I was scared and irritated ,as well as disgusted, I didn't know why...I knew I should thank him for saving me many times,I should feel grateful for his activities- but ,,, I couldn't act that way .The thoughts of me being his bride was painful and shocking enough for me to bear . I was not prepared for this at all ! At least, I needed some time to calm myself down first. I didn't know how I would behave if I met him some days earlier before I met Adam. Mr. Alexander seemed nice,caring ,protective and handsome- must be a dream of any other girl in the world but ,I was already in love with Adam! How I could I feel anything for him when my whole heart just thinks about Adam all the time! And,,, as I had heard,Mr. Alexander was the wolf King! How could I ever date a werewolf when I was none but a mere human girl! The thought of that was crazy enough to react like this..."Ruth?" Mr. Alexander said ,while l

Ruth's POV It took exactly a week to mom and dad leave the country to settle in Europe. They really tried their best to convince me to go with them but as they knew - the stubborn as I was ,I would never say yes on a thing once I said no. So,they left without me and prepared everything for me here . "Call us everyday, okay sweety?" Mom said before the flight . I went to the airport to see them off with Elizabeth. Though she hated me for everything - I knew that already the reasons why . But Mr. Alexander had arranged everything already so that we could make a perfect act infront of my parents. "Please take care of her ,sweetie." Dad requested Elizabeth. "It'll be so much appreciated! And please visit us when your school will be over for summer break ! " Elizabeth was standing there, pretending like a perfect friend - she talked with me normally, she even gave me a long hug infront of my parents . "Don't worry sir,I'll take care of everything!" She assured them quite a few times

ADAM'S POVI woke up in the hospital with a severe throbbing pain inside of my head. What was going on? The first thing I could remember was, I was talking to Ruth, and,, after a while, I heard some noises on my back yard and went to have a look on that. But, what actually happened after that? I tried to seat back up but couldn't ,as the pain was severe enough to glue me right away to my pillow. "Are you okay ,baby?" I heard a familiar voice and looked up.It was Elizabeth, looking straight in my eyes."Are you alright?" She came towards my bed and sat beside me on a chair. "Does something hurt?" She placed her warm hands over my head .I moved it away at once as it was too hot . I was feeling kind of nauseous. "Where is Ruth?" I asked Elizabeth out of curiosity. But her reaction Changed automatically after I uttered her name."Why are you talking about that stupid girl where I am by your side? why are you doing this Adam? do you love me or her?" I was shocked to hear her sc
