2. A Tempting Stranger“I doubt that,” I said, feeling the warmth of the alcohol bloom in my chest. “If I was meant to meet my mate, it would’ve happened last year when I turned eighteen.”“Don’t say that,” Layla chided gently. “Only the Moon Goddess knows why you haven’t met him yet.” She glanced at my empty cup and tilted the bottle toward me. “Want more?”I hesitated, then gave a slight nod. Maybe a little more would help drown the loneliness creeping into my heart. Layla poured into both our cups, lifting hers for a toast.“To my sister, finding her mate tonight!” she declared dramatically.I laughed, the sound slurred but genuine, and clinked my cup against hers. “To finding him,” I mumbled, we sat together, drinking and chatting, until the alcohol took full effect.I blinked slowly and pressed my palm against my temple. “Shit, Layla, you finally got me drunk,” I slurred, giggling despite myself.She laughed and leaned her head on my shoulder, her voice a soft hum. “I’m sorry, Di

4. I Don't Like Her{Warren's Pov}The pounding in my head was relentless, making it hard to stay upright as I made my way into the office. I had no idea why I’d drunk so much the night before. All I’d wanted was to honor my cousin’s invitation for once after turning her down so many times. But instead, I’d found myself bored, lonely, and aching for a connection that wasn’t there, a painful reminder that I still hadn’t found my mate.The throbbing in my skull intensified as I moved further into the room. I sank into my chair, my body heavy with exhaustion. Resting my hands on the desk, I took a deep breath, trying to calm the chaos in my mind. The news about my company, about it falling apart because of some conspiracy, had forced me out of bed despite the pain. I sank into my chair, letting my hand rest on the cool surface of the desk as I attempted to steady my thoughts. My headache pulsed faintly, but I pushed the discomfort aside. Glancing up, I waited for the day’s report to beg

6. You Are My Mate?{Warren's POV}I leaned against the couch, staring out the window as I flipped through the documents before me. A knock on the door pulled my attention away from the papers. I dropped them back on the table, looking toward the direction of the door."You can come in," I said, raising my voice slightly.The door creaked open, and Jane walked in."Alpha," she said with a bow of her head before looking up. "The lady from the night is here. She's brought your shirt and requested to see you.""Okay, let her in," I told Jane, and she immediately turned to open the door wider. I glanced once more at the documents on the table before closing the file and stacking them neatly. When I looked up again, I saw a girl standing next to Jane.Her green eyes pierced into mine, but she didn't look away. She had such courage, and I could smell her sweet scent from where I sat. I quickly assessed her features, long blonde hair and perfectly curvy hips."Come forward," I said, sitting

8. Tension {Warren's POV} "I... I'm so sorry," she stammered, her face filled with regret, and just by staring at her I didn't know what to do. A part of me wanted to fire her, and another part felt like I should give her another chance. I looked away from her and down at my shirt which was now ruined, before letting go of her hand. She immediately stepped back, her eyes getting teary, and I guessed she was expecting me to ask her to leave, but instead I turned toward Jane. "Get the cleaner to take care of the mess on the floor and..." I turned back to Diana and she immediately lowered her gaze to the ground. "You, come along with me. I need to get a new shirt." Diana looked up at me, her eyes widening in shock. I turned to the door and started walking toward the exit of the building. Through my peripheral view I saw her walking in haste to meet my pace, and the sight made me slightly disgusted. How can someone be so clumsy and rough. The ride to the boutique took a while,
