"She told me she refused to divorce me and made all sorts of threats before leaving. Then after about two hours she came back with a change of mind and said she’s going to sign the divorce papers. I knew something wasn't right but… since I wanted that divorce more than anything, I brushed it off. And I even shared a drink with her…""How could you be such a fool to even share a drink with her? You should have known that drink might…""The wine wasn't laced with anything and it was served by me. She used Jane."My heart clenched at his words, but I forced myself to remain impassive. I couldn't let him see how his explanation was affecting me, how a tiny part of me wanted so desperately to believe him."Your daughter?”"Adopted," he corrected, his voice tight with pain. "I couldn't believe she would use such a young child for her evil plan. And the next thing I remembered was waking up naked with a note pasted on the dressing mirror that she would come back after nine months."The room

Entering my office, I slammed my door harder than necessary as I walked to my desk, rage burning through me. “Wow, I can't believe that son of a bitch!” I said as I unbuttoned the first few buttons of my shirt, suddenly feeling hot and suffocated. For some unknown reason this law firm has started feeling more suffocating so I could hardly breathe. My enhanced hearing was picking up every whispered conversation, every keyboard click, every phone ring from the offices around me, and it was driving me crazy.This was exactly the kind of situation that made me understand why some werewolves chose to live completely separate from human society. The constant need to restrain ourselves, to play by their rules even when they had no intention of playing fair was really exhausting.But there weren't such places in this world again.The world has changed and we all lives among them, hiding our true form.I paced behind my desk, running my left hand through my hair as I tried to ground myself.

"See that area over there?" I gestured toward a large, carefully maintained space near the back of the house, my words tumbling out in a nervous rush. "That's going to be the vegetable garden. I had the soil tested and everything—apparently it's perfect for growing tomatoes, herbs and many others. Hailey and I can practice agriculture. you can also join us sometimes. ”Emma remained quiet, but I could see her eyes following where I pointed, taking it all in. Her scent kept shifting between emotions so rapidly I could barely keep up—surprise, confusion, something that might have been longing, and underneath it all, that stubborn wall of hurt she refused to let down."And the best part," I continued, my voice growing more excited as I gestured toward the back of the property, "is the kennel area I've already ordered to be built behind the house. I thought... I thought maybe Hailey would like to pick out a puppy." I couldn't keep the hopeful smile off my face. "I know how much she loves

"Anyway, thanks for that long advice. I really do appreciate it.""You're welcome."" Now just put that aside for now and tell me—do you really understand everything I've just said?""You mean the 'you're welcome' part? Yeah, I think I understand that...""Fuck, Em! Are you saying you didn't listen to a single word I've been saying?""Of course I did. I just thought that was the most important part.""Em! Are you serious right now? I've been racking my brain, trying to think of ideas to help you, and…""Okay, fine. I heard everything." I let out a loud laughter, holding my belly. "I was just trying to pull your leg, girl."“ Fuck you!”"And seriously, I really had no idea you were so good at giving advice."She let out a loud sigh and I could practically imagine her rolling her eyes. "Well, I'm not really sure about that, but I think I got good at it thanks to you."Then I remembered that I heard the screech of tires the other time which seemed like she was driving."Are you driving r

******AMAYA'S POV******* The flickering light of the ancient television cast dancing shadows across the crumbling walls as I sat curled on the ice-cold concrete floor, chewing another mouthful of uncooked noodles. I didn't even bother to cook it again, not after that almost run-down gas stove almost exploded yesterday, trying to turn me into roasted potatoes. Nothing in this house was working perfectly, and I couldn't believe that I had to stay stuck up in here for nine months. I can't use my phone. I can't use my card. I can't even leave this godforsaken house because Darrell's men are all around, looking for me. Is he really going to continue being like this forever? Why can't he just give up and stop all that nuisance? It's not as if I was some kind of criminal! I shook my head; I could not believe how childish he was. I knew he might be angry now, but once I had his first child, all that anger would quickly dissolve into thin air. He wouldn't still be acting lik
