Over the last two days, Blaze and I have grown more distant and alienated from each other. He even lacked the nerve to explain and tell me why he did what he did, particularly why he chose to side with Cleo. And that action has truly pained me so much because I thought that I could depend on him. I'm not sure if he is genuinely trying to find a way for me to leave or if he is simply acting like the stupid fool that he is and believing what his girlfriend has said about me instigating things. I don't know what to make of it anymore, and the only thing that occurred to me was to pack up and leave without waiting for the full moon. Eris and I have not been able to find the strength to defend ourselves for the past two days. We gave up and conceded the loss to Cleo, and we are more than willing to walk away from a fight that we are sure we won't be winning. I've

"Snow, are you completely sure about this?" A nod of her head confirms her answer. "But why? What's the matter?" Needless to say, Blythe was not prepared when she found out that her conversation with Snow would be centered on her friend's impending departure from their home. "I mean, no one is asking you to leave, is it? I mean, forcing you to leave and go home?" A shake of her head answers her friend's next question. "Then why do you have to make this sudden decision? What's really happening? Is it Blaze, or is it Cleo again? Tell me, Snow." She wants to avoid adding to the already complicated situation, and she especially doesn't want Blythe to be caught between her and Blaze or with her and Cleo. Blythe has been nothing but a good friend, almost like a sister to her, and she could never put her in a difficult situation of choosing between her and Blaze whe

I've found my mate. My second chance, mate. Once again, out of nowhere, the moon has disregarded my pleas not to show me the truth. Who would have predicted that I would one day have another opportunity to find my mate after having been turned down by the future Alpha of Sky River pack? I am a rejected she-wolf. I am a rejected warrior, but right now the tables have turned and I have another mate. I feel like the Moon Goddess is playing tricks on me; therefore, I don't even want to think of myself as fortunate. How can I feel lucky when I have this overwhelming confusion in my head? Is it a natural and moral thing for me to be in the arms of yet another man when I know deep down that I am still tied to Phoenix? I never actually heard of anyone having a second chance mate when the bond between the first mate hasn't completely disintegrated yet. Do I have a good feeling about this? To be really honest, no. I should be delighted about this, I know, but I can't help but dwell over what

"Blaze, damn! Blaze! Dammit! What could possibly have happened to you?" Quen lashed out in panic as his friend lay motionless on the bed. "Blaze, bullshit! You're scaring me! Wake up!" Damn! Everyone was on edge, searching for any indication as to what had happened with Blaze, especially when the underboss was the one who found out about the status of their boss. Doctors were called immediately, but none of them could say what really happened or what was wrong with their leader. Quen yelled again, directing his men, "What the hell happened in here? How stupid all of you can be not to know what took place in here! Who was with him? Damn all of you! I need fucking answers!" It was to be expected that the underboss would be incensed after witnessing their boss unconscious in his own room at the warehouse. There is n

"Finally, my mate is here." "What are you talking about? What do you mean your mate is here? Are you completely out of your mind? That can't be, and you know that. You must be hallucinating." "My mate is here, Tank. I am sure of that, and it is not just my imagination. Me and Max can sniff our mate." "Do you honestly believe that you have a mate? Are you forgetting that you are bound to have no mate at all?" "I have a fucking mate, Tank! What are you even saying?" "So you think the Moon Goddess has forgiven you already? Is she like giving you a second chance now, you mean?" "No, idiot! This is not a second-chance mate, but probably a second chance for us to make things right
