Is Cherry Blossoms After Winter #1 A Completed Novel?

“Ms. Arnold, you really should sign this divorce agreement. Otherwise, I won’t be able to answer to Mr. Fisher.” Jeremy Fisher’s personal lawyer, Cole Stewart, stood in front of Hailey Arnold with an anxious expression. In his hands were a freshly printed divorce agreement, the pages still crisp. This was the thirty-third time Jeremy had asked to divorce her. The first time, Hailey climbed onto the rooftop and jumped. She survived but broke one of her legs. The second time, she slashed her wrist with a small knife, and blood flooded half the bathroom. The third time, she swallowed an entire bottle of sleeping pills and spent three days in the hospital having her stomach pumped. … Every single time, she had used death to force Jeremy to compromise, but this time, she was tired of it.

I was the Beta’s daughter. He was the Alpha’s brother. Not to mention, he was the new Latin teacher at our High School. He reminded me of all that was good in our world. The world hadn’t quite hardened him enough to feel comfortable turning a blind eye. His eyes looked at me with genuine kindness. I needed him to turn a blind eye though. I needed him to not look and let me go. The only way I was going to survive is if I didn’t stand out until I graduated. I was already caught between my Alpha and my Father as they played their own games of succession within our pack. With a few months left, I didn’t need any complications. Nor did I need a mate. Instead I found both.

Kaia Woods is the eldest of 3 siblings. She's mateless and the Luna of the Silver Moon pack. She's never relied on anyone because she always had things under control and refused to ask for help. She's stubborn, kind hearted, and fearless. She has the bravery that men prayed for. Her and change were never best friends. So you can imagine her anxiety when her mate finally makes an appearance and an outside wolf tries to take a dominant stand in challenging her to be the Alpha.

At the year-end company meeting, I was announcing the bonuses when a new employee suddenly raised her hand. "Over at the other company, they handed out two boxes of imported cherries at their annual party," she said, shaking her phone. "And we only get performance bonuses?" The video, maliciously edited, went viral online and hit the trending list the very next day. I had the finance department cancel all the year-end bonus transfers. "If cherries are what really count as a gesture of goodwill," I said, "then this year's year-end benefit will be cherries—fifty boxes per person." When they saw the mountain of cherries piling up before them, the employees who had once joined in mocking me panicked instantly. One by one, they cried and apologized, begging me to reconsider.

On the eve of our wedding, Trevin Hoffman's childhood sweetheart, a mercenary who had vanished for five years, was struck by a deadly love spell during a mission. When her teammates dragged her back to him, she was covered in blood, barely clinging to life. Trevin, usually calm and composed, lost control. Ignoring my protests, he locked himself in with her for the entire night. I sat outside that door, sleepless until dawn. The next morning, when I demanded an explanation in hysteria, he shielded her with his body and snapped, his mask completely gone. "I couldn't just watch Wren die. One wild night before marriage, what's so wrong with that?" At that moment, I was disillusioned. My love for him vanished in an instant.

I didn't look where I was going. I didn't know what I ran into. "Ouch!" What... the... a brick wall. I looked up and saw a guy. Then I gasp, I felt a lump in my throat. " Hello, s**t! Did I tell you can come to the party?" Then he grabbed me, threw me into the wall in the hallway in the dark corner. He was caging me between his body and the wall. I am so scared, but I can't move. All I can do is breathe. Then he got closer to my face. " Did I give you permission to come to a party, hmmm..." he said with a growl. "No, you didn't, sir," I said. " "Ouch, please stop, you are hurting me," I whispered. He grabbed my arms, over my head, holding them so tight onto the wall. He chuckled; he likes seeing me in pain. I got the tears clouding my eyes. "Sorry, "I said. "Please let me go, Wade." He kept me on the wall with his body. "Now, Cherry, it looks like I have to punish you. "He said with a grin.
