I stood frozen in surprise as the door slammed shut, leaving me standing outside the gate with loads of heavy grocery bags in my hands. Confusion washed over me as I tried to make sense of the situation unfolding before me. The worried voices of the women continued to echo through the gate, their urgency growing with each passing second. Curiosity and concern compelled me to knock on the door so that I could give a little explanation about the old woman's situation. A few moments of silence followed, and then the door creaked open, revealing a young, beautiful woman with a fear expression on her face. She glanced at me, her ombre eyes filled with apprehension."Who are you?" She asked, her voice trembling slightly."I'm…I'm the lady who brought your grandmother," I stammered.She hesitated for a moment and was about to hand her the bags, but suddenly, her eyes went wide before slamming the door shut again without a word. I blinked incessantly, wondering what was wrong with them. No

Seizing the opportunity, I scrambled to my feet, my heart pounding in my chest. I knew I had to run, to put as much distance between this predator and myself as possible. But as I turned to sprint, someone suddenly appeared in front of me and knocked me to the ground."What do you want me to do with her?" "Should I kill her?" A chilling woman's voice echoed through. I was so scared that I felt like I might wet myself. As I lay on the ground, my mind raced with thoughts of escape and survival, The chilling question that had been uttered moments ago still hung in the air, sending shivers down my spine. Who was this woman talking about? Was she referring to me? The uncertainty only fueled my fear, making it difficult to think clearly.I mustered all the courage I had left and tried to push myself up from the cold, hard ground. But my body felt heavy, as if it were weighed down by an invisible force. Panic surged through me as I realized my limbs were numb, unresponsive to my desperate c

RALPH Get up," I ordered, my voice fierce."Why would I do that?" she replied dryly.I see. you're still big-headed. I wonder if you would still have the same spirit when I introduced you to the pack. It's bound to be entertaining. I thought to myself. Crouching down, I grabbed her hand, but I quickly dropped it due to the sudden jolting spark. She looked up at me in shock, clearly surprised. "Do you have electricity in your hands?" she asked.Without answering, I grabbed her hand again, ignoring the intense sparks that radiated through me. I despised this annoying mate bond, the sparks growing stronger with each passing second. I was furious at how much it affected me. Damn it to my wolf for making this impossible.When I arrived at my room, I immediately headed to the bathroom. I swiftly removed my clothes and turned on the hot water, vigorously scrubbing away her scent until I could no longer smell it. Taking a deep breath, I finally felt a sense of relief. As I emerged from the

KEILAH As the edges of my vision began to fade, I mustered every ounce of strength I had left and looked into his eyes and spoke up anyways… "Why are you always trying to kill me when I am your mate?" He flicked his eyes, a mixture of anger and confusion dancing within them. I pressed on, my voice shaky but determined. "I know you're a werewolf and the alpha who doesn't like humans for some reason I don't know of. And me being human and your mate makes it difficult for you, I understand and am sorry that you're struggling with it."His expression hardened, but a hint of conflict lingered in his eyes. In a swift motion, he released his hold, allowing me to crumple to the ground. Gasping for air, I watched as he turned away without saying anything and disappeared out.Feeling bruised and drained, I managed to pull myself up and staggered towards the bathroom. The hot water cascaded over me, soothing my aching muscles, but my mind was still racing with unanswered questions. Why does he a

KEILAH “I stood frozen, disbelief etched into every fibre of my being as his warm embrace enveloped me. My heart, previously a frantic drummer in a panic, now orchestrated a softer, steadier rhythm. It was an unfamiliar sensation—a shift from terror to an inexplicable calmness. Despite the knowledge of his formidable abilities, his arms felt like a sanctuary, a refuge from the chaos that raged outside.In that moment, surrounded by his embrace, I marvelled at the unexpected twist in our encounter. Fear, once an unrelenting captor, now surrendered to an overwhelming sense of solace and protection. His arms, like an impenetrable fortress, shielded me from the harshness of the world.As I nestled against him, his heartbeat became my melody, a soothing symphony that drowned out the clamour of my anxieties. Each steady thud was a reassurance, a whisper that echoed safety and trust in this unlikely sanctuary.”I closed my eyes and allowed myself to fully immerse in the moment, relishing the
