"These are the clothes my mom bought for me even though I don't like this style at all. She thinks I'll change one day and wear the dresses she buys for me," Ruth rolled her eyes before she picked out some colorful clothes from her closet. "I don't have many clothes for you to try on. These are the only ones I think will suit you. The others are clothes that are my style. It won't suit you since you're someone who'll look best in a soft girl aesthetic." I tilted my head as she talked. I don't understand much about style. I always thought of clothes as something worn to cover your nakedness and keep you warm. I never really looked at it as an accessory until I came to this pack.Meeting new people really changes your whole perspective on life.I don't understand what she meant by soft girl aesthetics. Does she think I'm some kind of defenseless soft girl? "I'm not a soft girl actually. I know how to fight. My father taught me. I can easily take down men who are double my size," I said

Ivy's POVIt's almost dawn and they're still not back. Stella told me that they went patrolling the northern side of the pack because they spotted traces of rogues or hunters there. Stella sat on the couch with a glass of wine in her hand as she let out a sigh for the nth time. She tries not to show her worry but it's obvious from her nervous fiddling. Her mate sat down next to her."Relax, dear. You know him. He has always been like this. He's going to return just fine. It's not the first time he's done this," He tries to calm her."I know but I can't help it. He's my son. I'll always be worried about him…" She shook her head, chugging the wine down in one go. "I told him to stop his hunt. Why won't he listen?""He is an alpha, my love. He's territorial over his pack. They came into our territory. I would have done the same." Stella raked a hand through her hair while the former alpha continued his efforts to calm her. I nervously shifted on my spot not knowing what to do.Is he sa

Cassian's POV "Are you fucking kidding me, Cass?" Ryder raised a brow as he looked at me as if I grew two heads. "It was only a day ago when you almost ripped my throat apart for saying that your mate would be better off with someone else. Was that the same you?" I only looked down in defeat. He doesn't understand the situation I'm in and I don't know how to make him understand."Who in their right mind would tell their mate to sleep with someone else? Do you have some kind of multiple personality disorder?""Look, the situation forced me to say that. I had to make her stop." I raked a hand through my hair."What situation? Cass, you're not making sense now. I don't understand you one bit. What's going on with you? You're not acting like yourself," Ryder sounded worried. I can't blame him. He's right. I'm not acting like myself. I used to deal with things in a calculated way but I'm now I've turned into an impulsive retard. She's turning me into someone else."I don't know…." I let

"Hello, Luna. Where are you going?" One of the guys asked with a drunken smile."Umm…to the washroom….Who are you both?" I frowned. One was an alpha and the other one was a beta. I could sense it from their pheromones but I didn't know who they were or where they were from."Oh, sorry. We didn't get to introduce ourselves earlier." The man smiled. "I'm Rafel, the alpha of the Rosemoon pack. This is Karl, my beta." He introduced.I gave him a nervous smile. They both seemed intoxicated. "My name's Ivy. Nice to meet you," I scratched my neck awkwardly. "You're the miracle mate Cassian got, right? You sure are a miracle." The beta licked his lips as he looked me up and down. "Umm…I think you guys should go back to the hall. We have a feast prepared and my mate would be glad to meet you." I faked a smile.The alpha smirked. "Is that so?" He looked at his beta with a weird expression. "Speaking of your mate…I noticed that your neck is bare." He pointed to my neck. "Why hasn't he marked

Ivy's POVI woke up with terrible cramps. My period came days earlier than I expected. Shit! Curses flew out of my lips as I got up from the bed.I waddled towards the bathroom like a zombie who hadn't eaten a brain in six months. After great efforts and almost dying, I somehow managed to take a shower and put on a tampon. I dressed myself in shorts and a comfy shirt before I flung myself onto the bed. I regretted it soon after as I saw hell and heaven at the same time when a pulsating pain hit my abdomen. "Ughh!!!" I screamed, curling myself into the shape of a shrimp."What's gotten into you?" I didn't even look up to see who was talking. I knew it was Cassian, and I didn't give a fuck.I stayed silent and wished I was dead. I just don't understand what the Moon goddess was thinking while she made us have periods. Why is it necessary for us to bleed to bear children? At least she could've been equal and made the men bleed out of their dick. Men bleeding out of their dick? I frowne
