The only thing she had as a way to get home, her only escape from here. Her Nan had kindly gotten everything sorted, and she had even gotten her her timetable. "Hey, you must be Harlow Gage." Someone said, all too chipper. The stranger almost jumped at her excitement, at she looked welcoming. Harlow hadn't noticed her until she had jumped right in front of her like an excited kitten. She was tall...well, taller than her, which didn't make a difference since everyone was taller than her. The stranger's soft curls fall in fiery swirls to a face as sweet as a white chocolate button. A smile lingered on her red lips, and she looked friendly. Too friendly.

Although it was only brief contact, I can warmth on top of my head and the butterflies fluttering in my stomach. What just happened? He smiled at me and I smiled at him, can't really help the delight I felt after that. We silently sat there looking up at the sky for a brief moment. "Have they always been like this?" The stranger asked. I nodded. "Yeah, I can't even remember the time when they are not fighting." He looked at me with concern. "Have they hurt you in any way?" I shook my head. "No, they don't. They are just overprotective."

But for an Alpha with hostile intentions, it can be a nightmare, forcing them to run away from it. Riley, however, couldn't sense the intense pheromones filling the room. She felt no discomfort from them. But when the stranger finally came to her, knelt down, and gently patted her head, she felt something—a spark that sent a shiver through her body, not of fear, but of something indescribably good. It was as if a wave of calm washed over her, wrapping her fragile self in an invisible blanket of safety. The weight of her sorrows, the pain in her chest, the knots of fear—all of it vanished, leaving her with an overwhelming sense of peace and relaxation.

Their expression was calm but tinged with urgency. “You’ve come far,” the stranger said, their voice layered with echoes that reverberated through the very fabric of the room. “But your journey is far from over.” “I’m tired of riddles,” Jessica shot back, her voice rising slightly. “Tell me what I need to do.” The stranger tilted their head slightly, as though considering the question. “Do? There’s nothing left to *do*. Only to decide.” Before she could respond, the books began to fall from the shelves, each landing open at her feet. Pages flipped rapidly, revealing fragments of lives lived and lost, choices made and undone. Some showed moments of triumph; others depicted failures so profoun

I paused which stretched too long. I forced a small smile. “Occupational hazard, I guess.” But he didn’t smile back. Instead he leaned forward slightly. “Strange." He murmured. My pulse quickened. “What is so strange in it ? Many people do it .” “ I don’t know why it feels… familiar. Like I have seen it before .” The word hit harder than it should have. I tightened my grip on the cup. “Maybe you’ve seen it somewhere,” I said lightly. “People have habits.”

“I don’t understand… I don’t know who you are, why you’re doing this…” “I’m doing this because I can’t stand seeing you broken.” He leans a fraction closer. “Not by him, not by anyone.” , My chest tightens. I want to scream at him. I want to lean closer. I don’t know which urge is stronger. my heart races, and my tears keep flowing. He hates seeing me like this, and yet—he hasn’t turned away. He hasn’t left. I dare a glance at him, really look at him. Behind the mask, behind the cold, controlled exterior, there is something… raw. Something strange. A dangerous kind of comfort. Why… Why do I feel comfort in this danger, with this dangerous man?

"Yeah, I'm supposed to be staying with a friend, but I can't seem to find the right address." Adam's expression softened. "Why don't you let me help? I live nearby and I know the area pretty well." Samantha hesitated. She had been warned about the dangers of trusting strangers, but there was something about Adam that made her feel safe. "Okay," she said finally, her heart racing. Adam led her down the streets, pointing out the landmarks and sharing stories about the city. Samantha couldn't help but be impressed by his knowledge and charm. As they arrived at his apartment building, Adam turned to her. "Why don't you stay with me for the night? It's late and you look exhausted."

I looked up, my tear-filled eyes meeting the gaze of a stranger—a kind face, weathered by time and etched with compassion. "Are you alright?" the stranger asked, concern, lacing their voice. "You seem lost and in need of help." I mustered the strength to speak, my voice shaky and raw. "I... I've been banished... betrayed... I have nowhere to go." The stranger's eyes softened, their empathy palpable. "Come with me," they said, extending a hand. "I have a small cabin nearby. You can find shelter and warmth for the night." With trembling limbs, I accepted the stranger's offer of kindness. Their touch was gentle as they helped me to my feet, guiding me through the darkness. Each step felt like a

I took a sip, and it felt so refreshing. I continued to read the book when a girl sat on the chair in front of me. I looked at her, completely confused but she smiled looking at me. "Excuse me?" I asked her. "Hi. I need to talk to you," she spoke as if she was in a hurry. "Do I know you?" I asked her. "No. And that doesn't even matter," she responded. I was confused by her weird behaviour. "I'm sorry, but it would be better if you leave me alone. My husband doesn't likes if I interact with strangers," I spoke up.

Jacob lightly kissed his woman's nape which made Ice squirm again. "No Jacob .... I want to sleep," whispered Ice who was indeed feeling very uncomfortable right now. Too tired. "Yes, I just want to wish you a good night. Go to sleep, I won't bother you." Jacob hugged tightly the body of the woman who actually didn't like being hugged. It's not like she had never slept while being hugged like this since she was a child because it felt quite strange. Ice nodded slowly. She was enjoying her rest as much as possible even though it was on a not-so-soft bed, in the small room of the motel that they had to leave tomorrow to go to a place that they thought was safe so that no one could disturb them
