Ch. 41..50
Chapter 41
“You what?” She asked with a confused tone.
“At your main door?” He replied more like he asked a question.
She cut the call and went downstairs. She headed to the main door
and opened it.
He had on a black shirt, a black leather jacket, and black jeans all matching each other perfectly. He had a hot appearance. She looked away from him and confronted him with the question, “Why are you here?”
“Do you speak to your guests in such a manner?”
“Oh, no.” She shook her head.
He rolled his eyes and walked past her, entering her house.
She glanced at his hand. There was a paper bag with the shop’s branding on it.
He looked around the house and sat on the couch. “Not bad.”
She stared at him. How could he welcome himself into someone
else’s home?
He turned his head towards her and patted the seat next to him. “Feel free to sit.”
“Yeah, of course I will sit. It’s my home.”
He smirked at her. “I like it when you act sassy with me.”
His words were going over her head. She sighed and asked,
“What would you like to have? Tea or coffee?”
175
“You.” He muttered; however, she heard him clearly.
“What?”
“You are going out with me.
“When did I say that?”
“You didn’t say, but I came to take you. And no, I don’t want to drink anything right now.”
Allison was perplexed. She sat down on the opposite couch, which was far from him, and asked,
“What did you mean?”
Ryan stood up and walked to her. He handed the bag to her and explained,
“One of my close friends’ birthdays is today. I need a date. So let’s go with me.”
She had a fixed glare for him. It was clear to him that she did not agree with him.
“Why in the world would I go with you?” She inquired.
“Because you should go to parties more often. You should enjoy nightlife too.”
“No, thank you.” She replied with a fake smile.
“Baby, please. I need a partner. He told me that I can not enter alone. and I need a girl as a partner.”
“Baby my foot. Go with your girls.”
“What girls? You told me to stop everything. Now who will go out with me?” He raised a question.
“Oh, hello? I did not intend to imply that I would attend every party
with you if you stopped flirting with women. It for your good, not
mine.”
“So you will not go with me?”
“My parents will come anytime soon. I can’t, Ryan.” She refused him.
“The pack party will run the whole night. My parents are also there. And you know when the four meet, what happens.”
If what Ryan was telling her was true, then her parents would really come late at night.
However, Allison folded her arms and asked,
“Give me one reason to go there.”
He smirked as if his reason was ready and he was just willing to place it in front of her.
“Your lovely best friend is also going there.”
“What? Teresa is also going there? She did not tell me anything about this party.”
“Max went to convince her. She will come, for sure. But why would she tell you? You are not a party person.”
“As you say, I am not a party person. I should not go there.”
“Max will be with her.”
“She knows her own good.”
Ryan exhaled while looking at her. “If you don’t go with me, I will stay here the whole night. Then your father will come, and we will create a
beautiful drama. Do you want that?”
“Are you blackmailing me?”
“Of course I am.
The focus of Allison’s attention was entirely on him. She was unable to do anything. He was in control of this situation. If her father were to come here and see him, he would be very angry.
She snatched the bag from him and headed upstairs.
When she came to her room, she took out the dress. She gasped when she saw it.
It was a beautiful black velvet knee length dress.
She did not waste time watching and got ready in twenty minutes. She put on a smokey makeup that suited the black dress.
She wore a black boots and grabbed a black purse.
When she went downstairs, Ryan was typing on his phone. He might have told his friends that he was coming there soon.
“Let’s go.” She let out.
Ryan turned his head, and his eyes paused at her.
She gulped at the way he looked at her. It made her feel someho shy. She lowered her eyes to the floor.
He slowly stood and headed to the main door.
“Let’s go.” He repeated her words.
She stared at his back. He did not even say anything. It was not like she wanted his compliment. But the dress was given by him. So he should have said something.
‘Am I not looking okay?’ She asked herself and walked behind him.
She started to feel self-conscious.
He closed the door and locked it. Her parents had the keys to their
house too.
She thought to call her parents in the car, otherwise, they would worry about her if they returned home and saw an empty house.
Ryan stood beside his car and opened the door for her.
She sat in the passenger seat, and he came to the driver’s seat.
However, he did not start the car. As if he were thinking something, he tapped his index finger on the steering wheel.
She put her house keys in her purse and turned to him.
Her eyes fell on his side profile. She was incapable of denying the
fact that Ryan was, in fact, a really handsome man.
In addition to that, the odor of his cologne permeated the entire car.
She sniffed a little. The scent was calming and comforting.
She waited for him to either start the car or speak.
Unexpectedly, he turned his head and gazed in her direction.
“You look absolutely stunning in this dress. When I was picking out this dress, I did not expect that it would fit you quite so well.”
“Oh.” She nodded and thanked him.
He extended his hand, which puzzled her, but then she heard him say, “Will you be my date tonight?”
Chapter 42
“Date?”
Allison furrowed her brow as she continued to look at his hand.
“Yeah. We are going together as partners, so…” Ryan muttered.
Allison let out a chuckle before placing her hand on top of his.
“Okay, for tonight.”
He gave her a friendly grin while gently taking her hand. After that, he released his grip on her hand and started his car.
Allison’s gaze was fixed on him, and she asked, “By the way, where is the party?”
“Same club.”
“The club we first met?”
“That is not where we had our first encounter. Before then, we had already met.”
Allison acknowledged him with a nod. “I know. I mean, we did not know you became like this.”
“Like what? Hot and handsome?”
“Aishh! This man!” She murmured. He chuckled when he heard her.
Allison looked out the window and thought about her parents. She needed to inform them about her outings. Otherwise, they would get worried for her when they went back home.
She opened her phone’s lock screen and felt a gaze.
“Focus on the road, not on my phone.” She told him while dialing her
father’s number.
“I have caught your password.”
She laughed. “It’s not like I have some secret on my phone and you will see it.”
Hearing her, Ryan laughed.
Allison’s father received her call.
“Allison”
“Dad, I am going to a birthday party. I will be back safely.”
“Party? But you didn’t say anything when we were at home.”
“My friend just called me and invited me, so I have to go.”
“Okay, come back safely.
“Okay, Dad. Bye.”
“Bye, my princess.”
Allison felt relieved that her father was okay with her going out at night.
“So you are Dad’s princess.”
She heard him. “Were you eavesdropping on my conversation?”
“No, but your father’s voice reached my ears. What can I do with it?”
Allison did not say anything. She did not want to argue with him now. So the ride became silent.
The car reached the club.
She was the one who got out of the car first. Ryan came out and threw the key to the guard, who would help him to park his car.
“Let’s go.”
Ryan said and grabbed her hand. The men who were standing outside looked at them and without asking any questions, they were allowed to enter the club.
When Allison turned around, she saw that the men had stopped a number of the girls because they appeared to be underage.
“Hey! It’s good that I am eighteen. But why didn’t they ask to see my identification for the check like the way they are doing with them?” She asked Ryan.
Ryan narrowed his eyes. “Why would they? You came here with me. They would never ask for any checking.”
“Why?”
“I am their regular customer. You heard about me at the table that day in the pack house. I am a party person.”
Allison raised her brows and wondered if he always came here with girls.
Allison looked around and saw that everyone was busy drinking or dancing.
“RYAN”
Allison saw a boy shout Ryan’s name and come towards them. With
the boy, there was a girl beside him.
Ryan let go of her and hugged the boy.
“Happy Birthday, Owen.”
“Thanks man. I am overjoyed that you have come.”
“Hi, Ryan.” The girl said as her eyes scanned Ryan from head to toe. It
did not go unnoticed by Allison.
1376
Ryan gave the girl a nod and turned to Allison.
“She is Allison.” Ryan introduced her to his friend.
“Who is she? Your girlfriend?” The girl asked curiously.
Allison shook her head immediately. “No, I am n-”
“More than that.” Ryan replied. Then he reached out and gripped her waist.
Allison tilted her head in his direction and gazed into his eyes as she faced him.
Ryan whispered in her ear, “Play along with me. You can see how she is looking at me. She will devour me if you don’t agree.”
Allison glanced at the girl and then at Ryan. She kept quiet. Her eyes fell on his hand, which was holding her waist. She got mad at him. She waited some time to scold him for it.
Owen laughed and said to the girl,
“Liana, you can go and enjoy yourself there.”
The young lady gave a hostile expression as she surveyed Ryan and Allison before moving to the opposite side of the area.
“Don’t mind her.” Owen let out to Allison.
She yanked Ryan’s hand away from her waist and stated, “I am not anything that he has just said. I just came with him on your birthday.”
“I know. I heard about you from him.
She creased her brows thoughtfully. “About me?”
“Yeah.”
She glanced at Ryan, who stared at her with an indifferent face as if
he did not like what she had just said to his friend.
“Happy Birthday, Owen.” Allison ignored Ryan and smiled at Owen.
Ryan walked past her and headed to the bar side.
Allison looked at him and said to Owen, “Excuse me.”
She went behind him. She sat on a tool beside him where he was sitting.
“Why did you come from there like that?”
He ordered a drink from the bartender. He did not reply to her.
“I am asking you. You brought me here, and now you have left me over there by myself.”
He grabbed his drink and sipped it. She took a deep breath and glared at him. “I am talking to you, Ryan.”
He faced her and raised an eyebrow in her direction. “Do you think that I behave with everyone the same way that I behave with you?”
“What?”
“Why did you say that to Owen? Did I tell him that you are my girlfriend? What did you try to prove? That I am some piece of shit and you don’t want to be with me?”
She was taken aback. “Hey! What’s happened to you? When did I say that? I was just clearing up the facts. Because I don’t want anyone to misunderstand us.”
“Misunderstand? Yeah.” He muttered and sipped on his drink again.
“Please don’t point the finger at me. Right now, I should be the one who is able to feel angry. Why did you hold my waist that time? You ought not to have acted in that manner.”
He heard her and remained silent for some time then said, “Okay, I’m
sorry. I’m not going to touch you ever again.”
Allison gave a slight nod and then shifted her attention to the dance floor. She was silently watching everyone. She did not say anything to Ryan to drag out the conversation.
.
She gave him a sidelong glance before murmuring, “You got mad very easily.”
She thought that because the music was so loud, he would not be able to hear her whispering to him.
However, he replied to her,
“You are becoming the reason for my aggression.”
Chapter 43
“What do you mean?” Allison asked with confusion.
“Nothing.” He responded.
He looked at the bartender. “Give her a glass of orange juice.”
“No, I like apple juice.” She corrected him.
He nodded his head. “Note it.”
“What?”
“Nothing.” He said that again and glanced at the bartender. “You heard her.”
“Yes, Sir.”
“With no alcohol.” He reminded him.
“Got it, sir.”
Allison stared at Ryan. His eyes caught hers. “What?”
“I can’t understand you.”
“No one could.”
She rolled her eyes and tried to find her best friend in the crowd.
“You said that Teresa is coming here. Now where is she?”
“How would I know?”
“What do you mean? Where is your friend Max?”
He shifted his eyes everywhere. Then he lifted his hand and waved at
someone.
She saw Max coming towards them, “I was looking for you.” Max said
to Ryan and smiled at Allison.
“Where is Teresa?” She asked Max.
“She did not come with me.”
“What? Why?”
Max looked upset. He replied with a disturbed tone, “I don’t know what’s on her mind. She said she could not go anywhere with me until her birthday.”
Allison sighed. She thought Teresa would come, so she agreed to come to this party. But now she would have to feel bored here.
“It looks like you suggested the same thing to your best friend too.”
She heard Ryan. She turned to him. He stood up and said, “I am coming in a few minutes.”
“Where are you going?”
Max replied to her on behalf of Ryan “He will be back. We have something urgent to talk about.”
“Oh, okay.”
She saw Ryan go to another side. Many boys were there waiting for him. Then Ryan walked to the stairs and went upstairs.
She could see him standing on the side and talking with a few men. She frowned at the thought of those men.
‘Who are they?’
She sat there for a while and asked for another drink. She fell a few
gazes on her. She glanced around and saw a few boys staring at her. They did not have good intentions. She could guess their intentions with their eyes.
“Allison?”
She saw Ethan with his friend Wade. He came to stand beside her.
Ethan, Hi.”
“Hi. What are you doing here alone?” He asked as his eyes moved to
her clothes.
She somehow lowered her eyes, and felt embarrassed. This dress was really grabbing the attention of the boys.
She cleared her throat and asked, “Where is your partner? I heard you can’t enter the party without a partner.”
“Who can stop our Alpha from entering a party?” Wade asked from beside Ethan.
Allison felt Wade was right. No one would dare.
“But we came together since he does not like to show his power.” Wade explained.
“Together? I thought only a girl could partner with a boy at this party.”
Ethan frowned, his brows crinkled. “What are you saying? Who tole you this?”
Allison moved her eyes upstairs to Ryan, who was talking with some boys.
“This man!” She muttered angrily. How dare he lie to her about it? He
could have come with Max or any other friend.
Ethan’s eyes turned to where she was looking. His eyes turned dark.
“Did you come here with him?”
She nodded her head. “Yeah.”
Ethan got mad after listening to her reply. “Allison, what are you doing? You did not come for training yesterday for him, and now you
are here at this party with him?”
Allison felt irritated by his question. So?”
He raised his brows. “See? You are even speaking like him. He is impacting you badly.”
“Nothing is like that.”
Wade told Ethan that he was going to talk with someone. He nodded and sat beside Allison, where Ryan was sitting a while ago.
“Allison”
“I am listening.” She replied. Her gaze was incessantly drawn to the upper floor.
She saw a few girls approaching Ryan. He began to talk to them. When one of them started to go closer to him, he pushed her and said something that made her look upset. Then those girls left his side.
Suddenly, Allison felt a hand caressing her hair. She turned her head to Ethan. He smiled at her. It was a soft and sweet smile.
“I am sorry if I offend you with my questions.”
She would have passed out looking at him smiling if he had not rejected her that night. But now, everything has changed.
She was about to push his hand; however, her eyes fell on Ryan. He was staring at her.
She rolled her eyes and spun her tool toward the bar.
‘So now he is looking at me? He does not have any responsibility at all. He left me here alone.’ She thought about it and got angry inside.
Ethan moved his hand away and said,
“If you don’t like this place, I can drop you home.”
But a voice behind her intervened just as she was about to say that
she wanted to go back.
“She can’t go anywhere with you.”
She did not turn, but Ethan did.
“Ryan, why did you bring her here?”
Ryan moved toward Allison and replied,
“She came here with me, so you don’t have to think for her.”
“You left her and she was here alone. What if someone-”
“She is not a child.”
This time, Allison turned to Ryan. Before she could say something, Ryan questioned her, “Didn’t you agree to be my date tonight?”
“Date for tonight? How dare you even say that?” Ethan stood up from) his tool and proceeded to Ryan.
Allison did not want them to argue like that night again. So she
looked at Ethan and confirmed him, “I came with him. He will drop me. Don’t worry.”
Ethan’s face turned grim. “Does your father know that you came here with him?”
Allison was taken aback by Ethan’s question. She remembered how angry her father was when he saw Ryan drop her off at home.
“Oh. So you are trying to be her father now?” Ryan scoffed at Ethan.
Allison stood up and let out, “Ethan, please. I don’t want you two to fight. I am not a child. I know what’s good for me. So stop telling me what I should do.”
When Ethan heard her, he immediately felt enraged. He nodded his

head fiercely. Your wish, but I alerted you about it. See you in training.”
After that, Ethan stormed out of the club in a huff of wrath.
Allison shifted her attention to Ryan. “Let’s leave now.”
“The party has just begun. And you are my date. How can I let you go this early?”
“W-What?”
He moved closer to her face and smirked at her perplexed reaction. “Let me teach you how to enjoy the nightlife.”
Chapter 44
Allison blinked her eyes a few times as she tried to make sense of what he was saying.
She felt him gripping her waist. She was dragged after him by his
“Where are we going?” She asked him.
s arm.
Ryan turned his head in her direction as he neared her. “Let’s dance.”
When they made their way to the dance floor, the music was so loud that it was almost painful for her ears.
“D-Dance? I had never danced before?”
Instead of listening to what she had to say, he dragged her to the dance floor.
“I CAN’T DANCE.”
She yelled at the top of her lungs in order for him to hear her. People could not be heard because of the extremely loud music and beats that were playing.
He chuckled at her. “I know how to dance. Don’t worry, baby.” He replied and pulled her towards him.
Her eyes widened when his one hand grabbed her waist. His other hand held her hand, which he placed on his shoulder.
He started dancing with her right away. She was unaware of what he was up to at the time. She was entirely unprepared for any of his dancing moves, but he was making her dance because he knew her
every move.
The DJ played a song with full beats. The lights were flickering, and smoke could be seen in every direction. She was only able to see
Ryan through the thick cloud of smoke.
Suddenly, she started to enjoy dancing. She focused her attention on each step as best she could. She was a quick learner, and as a result, she was able to memorize his movements.
Ryan spun her around, and her back pressed against his hard chest.
She felt him move both of his hands to her waist. She felt her heart
start to beat fast because of his actions. They were very close as
their bodies pressed against each other.
His hands moved to hers as he caressed her arms and placed them
on his neck slowly.
He rested his head on her neck and turned his mouth to her ear. She
felt his breath in her ear. She closed her eyes and heard him,
“I left you for a few minutes, and you started to talk to him? I did not like that.”
She opened her eyes and turned around to look at him.
“He was giving me company.”
“You almost left the club with him.” He said and pulled her to him. This time, her front touched his chest.
She pressed her hands on his chest. “You are talking like a possessive guy.”
“Am I?
“Yeah.” She nodded and moved her hands up slowly, then rested them
on his neck.
“What’s your plan, Ryan Iversen?” She wiggled her brows as she inquired.
He whispered to her,
“Making you mine.”
He moved his face back and looked at her reaction.
Allison stopped moving and was stunned by his words. She stared at him with widened eyes.
He broke into laughter. Looking at his laugh, she finally let out her breath, which she had been holding for who knows how long inside.
“Look at your face. I was kidding, baby.” He cracked up.
She hit his arm and laughed with him. They started to move again.
After a few minutes, Allison began to jump with the beats. She was sweating while dancing for a long time, but her legs did not want to stop. She felt drunk without drinking any alcohol.
Now she was getting why Teresa liked clubs and parties. Dancing was not a bad thing, and it was enjoyable too.
Ryan pulled Allison away from the crowd when he noticed that she was getting tired and that the ache in her legs started to feel painful They came to the bar. She chugged down a glass of ice water and exhaled deeply. While she was dancing, she was experiencing feelings of thirst, but she seemed to feel better now.
She collected her bag from the bar counter and then pulled out her phone from within.
When she noticed the time, she was taken aback.
“11 pm!”
Her heart began to throb in worry. Her parents might be at home, worrying about her.
“Don’t worry. They have not departed from their party.”
She heard Ryan and looked at him. He nodded at her.
When she opened the lock on her phone, she found a message that had been sent from her mother’s number.
“Allison, we got stuck in the party. We will come late at night. Don’t wait for us. Check the door and lock it before sleeping.”
Allison felt she got her life back when she saw the time of the text.
Only ten minutes ago.
She exhaled deeply. Her parents might be thinking that she had reached home and was sleeping right now.
“I want to go back now.” She said to Ryan.
He nodded at her. “Let’s go.”
They left the club. They waited for the guard to bring out Ryan’s car while they stood there.
Allison started walking down the street while Ryan was still standing on the side. From where he was standing, Ryan was observing her.
The temperature outside was very different from what it was like inside the club.
Three boys were passing through there at that time. Ryan was a little far from her, so they thought Allison was alone. They came to a stop. and peered at her with eyes brimming with desire.
“Hey! Darling. Where are you going?” One of them spoke up and made their way towards her.
Her old incident came to her mind when she understood what they would try to do. In her panic, she took a step backward and almost forgot that she was not alone.
However, when she stepped back, she bumped into someone. Her frightened mind came to be calmed when she smelled Ryan’s
cologne.
She was about to turn but stopped when she felt a black jacket had covered her upper body. It looked like he was wrapping his jacket
around her arms.
She was taken aback by it. Her gaze wandered from the jacket to the three young men standing nearby.
As if they saw a ghost, their eyes widened when they looked at Ryan. They stepped back, and one of them fell to the ground. Three of them ran away as fast as they could.
She was bewildered by their reactions. She turned to Ryan. He was gazing at the street.
‘He is not looking dreadful at all, so why did they run like that?’ She thought as her eyes were staring at his face.
A black car stopped in front of them. The guard came out and handed
the key to Ryan.
“Sir”
He said, bowing to Ryan. Ryan gave him a tip and opened the door for
Allison, who was still lost in thoughts.
“Allison”
She heard her name coming from his mouth and came back to her senses. He did not call her name usually, so it jerked her out of her thoughts.
She sat in the passenger seat. He came to the driver’s seat and
started the car.
She turned to him and asked curiously,
“Why did they run away like that?”
His eyes turned dark, which she could not notice because of the dark
street
He replied with a cold voice
“They looked at something they should not have looked at So I show them something they will regret wipessing for the rest of their lives
His eyes turned dark, which she could not notice because of the dark.
street.
He replied with a cold voice,
“They looked at something they should not have looked at. So I show them something they will regret witnessing for the rest of their lives.”
Chapter 45
Allison was staring at Ryan. He was driving the car in silence.
“What did you show them?”
“Something you should not know.”
“Ryan, why are you confusing me? Tell me, come on.” She tried to persuade him.
“Will you tell me why you need Ethan?”
After she had heard his query, she looked away from him. She had no intention of telling anyone else the story of her wolf.
“It’s very personal.”
“Then, that was a personal matter as well.”
“Okay, fine. Don’t tell me.”
“Good girl.”
She wanted to get mad at him, but the moment she turned to him, his face made her calm. He was not a bad person. He did not try to take advantage of her in the club.
Though he was known as a playboy, he did not do anything terrible to her. She showed some trust and went to the party with him; he did
not let her trust be broken.
Allison leaned on the seat and said,
“You are not a bad guy. Why don’t you speak to your parents normally?
“They don’t want me. They are happy with their one son.”
“Don’t behave like a five-year-old kid. You sound like a jealous child who is filled with envy.”
“Do you think so?”
“Yeah.”
“I guess I have always had a very possessive attitude towards the things that are mine…” He stopped and cast a quick glance in her
direction.
“But Ethan took them away from me each and every time.”
She could not understand what he was talking about. But she shook. her head. “He is not a bad guy either. I know what he did to me was wrong. But that’s our matter. Other than that, he is a family person. You are his brother. If there ever comes a time when you are in danger, he will destroy everything in order to save you.”
“Really?”
“Yes, of course. I know him.”
“How long?”
“What?” She asked as she could not get his sudden question.
“How long have you been in love with him?”
Allison thought about it. How long was she in love with Ethan? She had admired him since childhood. Though she realized her love when he came to save her from those boys who tried to force her.
“I don’t know.” She mumbled.
“From childhood.” He replied.
She jerked her head towards him and asked,
“H-How do you know?”
“See? You lied to me. You said you don’t know.”
“No, I am confused about it. But tell me, how do you know?”
“I was not blind when I was here.”
His reply left her speechless. “You noticed it? We were kids at that
time.”
“I had seen how you used to look at him. When I returned to this pack, I got to see the same Allison, who was still looking at Ethan with love in her eyes. I must say, you are a loyal girl.”
Allison’s cheeks became flushed with redness. She was unsure if she
should feel embarrassed or not about the situation..
Suddenly, his words hit her. “Wait a minute.”
“What?” He asked.
“You observed me in our childhood days?”
“Oh please. I didn’t observe you, I had noticed it when your mother took you to the pack house and you only came to talk with Ethan. Who would not notice it?”
“Bro, you-”
“I am not your brother.”
“Oh, okay. Why so serious?” She blinked when he glanced at her.
“Well, Ryan, you are right. You guessed correctly, happy?”
The car turned quiet again. After a few minutes, he let out,
“You still love him, don’t you?”
She was feeling sleepy. She closed her eyes and did not reply to him. since she did not know the answer either.
The car stopped in front of Allison’s house. Ryan turned to her, and his eyes remained on her face.
She had fallen asleep. Her head was resting against the glass of the window. A few strands of her hair had made their way onto her face.
He let out a sigh and stared at her for a long time. His phone buzzed, and he answered the call right away so that she would not wake up.
“They just departed from my home, Ryan. It will take one hour from my house to reach theirs.”
Ryan’s gaze did not leave Allison’s face.
“Okay.” He replied and cut the call.
He got out of his car and went to open the other door.
He bent down and unbuckled her seatbelt. He glanced at her purse. Since he had seen her putting her house key inside her bag, he opened the chain and took it out.
He gently took her into his arms and then closed the car door with his leg.
He walked to the house and opened the door with the keys in one hand while holding her with the other.
“You really need to eat more. You are like a feather to me.” He muttered and entered her house.
He went upstairs to her room. When he came to take her here in the
evening, he noticed her room from downstairs.
He closed the door behind him and slowly laid her on the bed.
He sat on the bed beside her and observed her. His fingers moved the hair strands from her face.
She was either in a deep sleep or feeling something soothing that
helped her to fall asleep peacefully.
He whispered to her while stroking her cheek with the back of his knuckles and said,
“You are driving me insane. I am terrified of who I am right now. If I break you, will you forgive me as you did with Ethan?”
His fingers came to rest on her lips. He gently rubbed his thumb across her lips, and he could feel the softness of her lips beneath his
fingertip.
“You are wrong. You don’t need him, but he needs you. However…” He paused for a moment, then continued,
“You caught my eye. Now, even if you want, you can’t back away until I let you go.”
He leaned on her face and nuzzled his nose against her cheeks.
Then his lips brushed against hers softly. At that time, he lost control over his desire to kiss her.
She did not awaken like he had taken possession of her mind and
body.
He pressed his lips against hers and kissed her tenderly which lasted
for a while.
He moved back after kissing her. He wiped her lips with his thumb
and then withdrew his finger from her lips.
She shifted her body a little, then went to dreamland again.
But she could not see the man in front of her, who had just kissed her as he wished.
He stared at her with his eyes glowing dark orange.
“I am too dangerous for you. You know nothing about me.

What if I cage you in my world, Omega?”
Chapter 46
Allison opened her eyes. She yawned and sat up in the bed.
As she took a look around, she realized that she was in her bedroom.
She glanced at the window. The window in her room was open, and she could see the bright sunlight streaming in.
“When did I come to my room? I was in the car and…” She paused
and looked down at her.
Ryan’s black jacket was still on her body. She could still recall the way he had wrapped it around her. She was with him last night until she fell asleep in his car.
“Did he take me to my room?”
She unknowingly pulled the leather jacket close to her nose. She sniffed it, and she was stunned.
It smelled different but pleasant, and it was mixed with his cologne.
Unexpectedly, she blushed and put the jacket beside her on the bed.
She got out of bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Since it was a Sunday, she did not have anything to worry about in terms of her studies. She made her way downstairs in a relaxed
manner.
Her mother was sitting on the couch. Surprisingly, her father was also sitting there. They were laughing at each other.
Allison came to a stop in the corner and smiled at her parents while she looked at them. They seemed to enjoy being together!
She was convinced that they were the happiest couple in the world.
They both loved and cared for each other.
‘Such a happy couple!’ She was thinking and feeling sensitive
emotions.
When her mother noticed her, she immediately called for her daughter, “Allison, come here.”
“Good morning, Mom and Dad,” She said to them.
“Good morning, my princess.” Her father said and patted the seat beside him on the couch.
Allison sat beside him. Her mother stood and announced, “I am going to set breakfast on the table.” Then she went to the kitchen.
“When did you come last night?” Glen asked his daughter.
Allison heaved a breath as she struggled to determine whether or not they had seen her with Ryan. She didn’t even know what had happened last night. She needed to ask Ryan about it. Additionally, she was wondering why her parents didn’t wake her up when they reached home.
“I could not remember the time, Dad. I was sleepy, so I returned and went to sleep directly.”
He gave her a nod. “We came back late at night, and when we went to check, your lights were off; you were sleeping, so we did not disturb you.”
Allison felt relieved. If they somehow saw her with that jacket, it would be a big problem. Her father would have definitely asked her about it.
“How was the pack party, Dad?” She tried to change the topic.
“Yeah, it was good. It was our Gamma’s birthday. We had a good time and were about to come back soon but his son stopped us, and we
got stuck there. He arranged some games for his father and us. We played and then went for drinks. You know, Alpha Neil and Luna Ella. They did not let us leave before the party ended.”
“Oh. It’s good that you and Mom enjoyed it.”
“Yeah, we did. We have been friends for a long time. So whenever we get time to have her together, we don’t miss that. How about you? Did you enjoy your friend’s birthday party?”
Her father’s question made her recall everything about last night.
The way she danced last night, she felt she was not herself but someone else.
“I did.” She mumbled.
“Good. I like it when you try to enjoy your time. It would be best if you went out more often. I want you to develop into a delightful young lady, not a robot that merely carries out the tasks that we
assign to her. It is now your turn to experience everything. Because once you are married, you will be expected to take on a great deal of
responsibility, and you won’t have much time for yourself during that
time.”
She turned her head towards her father immediately.
“Marriage? Responsibility? What are you talking about, Dad? I am only eighteen.”
He chuckled at her. “My princess, when I found your mother as my mate, she was also eighteen. We had just gotten married at the time, and look how far we have come! A cheerful home with a happy family.
Allison lowered her head. If she had heard these things before she was rejected, it would have made her blush or made her pleased. However, today, everything was different. She did not have anyone in
2.5
her life with whom she could share such a thought, thus the idea of getting married was out of the question for her at the moment.
“Stop talking and come for breakfast. Hurry up.”
Her mother’s voice reached her ears. She stood up, saying, “Let’s go,
Dad.”
Three of them sat at the table and had their breakfast while exchanging smiles.
“Your semester is coming. How is your study going?”
“Good.”
Her father asked, and she replied instantly. It was true that she was studying hard for her exams.
“Luna Ella was talking about you last night.” Her mother said.
“Me?” She asked.
“Yeah. She was telling me that you are a hard working girl. You are really doing well in training.”
“Really? How did she know?”
“Of course, Ethan told him. Alpha Neil told me so.” Her father spoke
out.
Allison glanced at her father. She was sure that her father was a fan of Ethan. He always talked about him. He never let out anything wrong about him.
After breakfast, Allison returned to her room. She decided to stay at home today. Because from the next morning, she would have to start her daily schedule again.
She stayed home the whole day and spent her time with her parents.
She wanted to call Ryan to ask about last night. But she prevented her
from doing that.
It was nighttime when she came to her room after having dinner with her parents.
She lay on the bed and began to think about last night. She thought about Ryan.
In her eyes, he was not a harmful person. He was just walking in the wrong direction. He needed someone to make things right.
She could not sleep, so she sat up and grabbed her phone. She started to scroll through the timeline of her social media account.
She saw many girls from her school posting about Ethan and Ryan, as usual.
But her eyes fell on a few photos of her and Ryan that were also uploaded there.
They looked very intimate in those photos. It looked like Ryan was hugging her from behind while dancing.
Her jaw dropped when she saw those photos. Someone posted them a few minutes ago.
The caption startled her the most.
“Playboy Alpha Ryan Iversen was spotted with a new chick last night at the Star Night Club.”
Chapter 47
The following day, Allison was upset. Teresa came to pick her up.
After
er getting in the car, she turned her head to gaze out the window.
“As you can see, I have read the post. The news spread like wildfire. You are free to share your thoughts on the matter in any way you see fit. You are aware that we can have a conversation, right?”
After saying that, Teresa started the car.
Allison gave a small shake of her head and said, “I have nothing to say.”
“You went with him to a club? I couldn’t believe it when I saw it. You
were never one for going out to clubs and parties. How was it that he was able to persuade you to go with him?”
“I had assumed that you would accompany Max.”
“What?”
“Hmm. He told me that you would go there with Max. I thought I would not be alone, but then Max told me that you did not come with
him.”
“If I had known that you were going, I would have agreed with Max. You could have called me.”
“I made a mistake. I should have called you.”
“No, it’s okay. You had new experiences. I saw how you were having a good time with him. So he did his magic to you, huh?” Teresa asked with a singing tone.
Allison turned to her. “Don’t talk nonsense. Nothing is like that. I don’t know what has happened to me.”
“What do you mean?”
“I turn into a different person whenever I am with him.”
“In a good way or a bad way?”
“I don’t know.”
“Okay, relax. Don’t worry much about it.”
Allison gave her a nod and sighed.
When they finally arrived at their school, everyone immediately began to talk about Allison.
She rolled her eyes. People had nothing to do except gossip about
her.
“Look at her. She is so confident. Last time she was close with Ethan,
now she is with Ryan.”
“Maybe Ethan ditched her.”
“Of course, he did. Do you think Ethan can stick with this girl? What is her status? Nothing. An ordinary omega can’t have the head Alpha.”
“We all know how Ryan is. He will dump her soon. He only used girls for play. So she will be on his playing list soon. After that, she will be nothing.”
Allison heard all the gossip. She tightened her fists and headed to the
locker.
Teresa was about to scold others, but she stopped her from saying anything.
“It will be no use. Let’s go.”
She made her way to the first of her classes. When other students in the class glared at her, it made her feel uncomfortable and furious.
She started attending the sessions one at a time and felt like slapping herself for her decision to go to the club with Ryan that night.
She was afraid that if her father ever saw those pictures, it would be
the end of her.
When it came time for the break. She got along with Teresa, and the two of them went to the cafe. There, she also overheard others.
gossiping.
Max came to chat with Teresa. He gave Allison a glance and said,
“Ryan was asking for you. He said you were not picking up his calls.”
Allison made a frowning face and looked through her bag. She pulled her phone out. It was in silent mode.
She could see a few missed calls from an unknown number. She still
had not saved his number.
She noticed a message had suddenly appeared.
“Come to the rooftop. I am waiting.”
Allison could not make up her mind about whether or not she wanted
to go.
But she stood up from her chair and looked at Teresa. “I am going to meet him. We will meet in the next class.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yeah. Don’t worry.”
“Okay.”
Allison headed to the rooftop.
She opened the door to the roof and entered the rooftop.
She spotted Ryan standing there while he was holding onto the railing.
She then proceeded towards him after closing the door behind her.
“You sent me a message.” She stated.
Hearing her, he turned around.
She looked at him and blushed when she remembered that he carried
her to her room that night.
‘Oh, his jacket! Did he call me for his jacket? I left it at home. How did I forget it?’
“How are you?”
His deep voice took her out of her thoughts.
“I’m fine.”
He stared at her, which made her feel nervous.
“Do you have something to talk about?” She asked.
He shook his head. “I just wanted to see you.”
“W-What?”
“How is your health?”
“What happened to me? I am totally fine.”
She was bewildered. ‘Why is he asking me about my health?’
He looked away and turned around to the railing again, focusing on
the entrance area.
She stepped toward the railing and stood beside him.
“That night, why didn’t you wake me up?”
“I did not want to disturb your sleep.
“What if my parents were at home?”
“There was no way for them to reach there before us.”
“How were you so sure?”
A smile stretched across his lips. “I have my own way, baby.” He replied in a low tone.
Allison closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She cleared her
throat.
“Ryan, I have to say something.”
“I’m all ears.” He replied and turned to her.
“Have you seen the posts?”
He frowned as if he were not aware of anything.
“What posts are you talking about?” He asked.
“Nice. You had seen the posts with Ethan and me that day. But not mine and yours?”
He narrowed his eyes. “Your and Ethan’s names don’t sound good together.”
“What are you talking about?” She glared at him for behaving like he did not know about those posts.
So she took out her phone and searched for those posts.
“See?”
When she showed him the phone, he grabbed it. When his hand came
into contact with hers and flinched.
He was busy reading the posts and comments. He did not see her
reaction.
‘What’s wrong with me?’ She asked herself for her own reaction.
She looked at the man in front of her. His face turned grim as his eyes read those comments.
‘Those posts are not only for me but also for him. Of course, he would get angry.’ She thought.
He handed her phone to her. “I will do something about it. Don’t worry.
He assured her as his eyes were looking down at the students.
But she could see his mind was somewhere else.
“I believe it would be best if we kept our distance from each other.”
He turned his head as if he did not like her statement. With a cold
tone, he replied,
“If you want to stay away, I won’t force you to meet me again.”
Chapter 48
His icy tone shocked Allison, who was caught off guard.
“I didn’t mean anything to hurt you, and it’s just that I don’t want anyone to misunderstand us. Please don’t take this the wrong way. I am just-”
She tried to explain to him, but he interrupted her,
“I can understand you.”
Allison nodded and left the rooftop.
Ryan turned around and took out his phone. He dialed a number. It took one ring, and it connected.
“Find out the person who uploaded photos of me and Allison, and bring them to me.”
“Okay.”
“Don’t forget to take down all of the posts,” Like the boss, he
instructed.
“Got it. Just give me two hours, please.”
Ryan’s eyes turned dark. “One hour.”
“Bro, please. I have just woken up.”
“Colin.”
“Okay, fine. Within the next hour, the person who had the audacity to cause trouble for Alpha Ryan will be standing in front of you.”
“Hmm.”
“Please don’t do something when you meet them. They must be just
mere students who want some clout.
It’s not our old place, don’t be so cruel here.”
“Will see. However, there is something else that I need you to accomplish for me.”
“Your wish, my command.”
Ryan smirked before announcing what it was that he wanted.
Meanwhile, Allison met with Teresa in the cafe. Max had already gone.
“Where is Max?” She asked Teresa.
“He said he had something to do.” Teresa replied.
“Oh”
“I thought you went to meet Ryan.”
“Yeah, I did. I told him we should stay away from each other so that we don’t have to face this type of controversy again.”
Teresa supported her chin with the palm of her hand and indicated with a nod that she understood. “There is something I am curious
about.”
“What?”
“A few days ago, you used to dislike him, but now you are talking to him. In fact, you believed that guy. You changed yourself and tried to move on. Now you confidently talk with Ethan, and he is begging you to forgive him.”
“What are you trying to say?”
Teresa hit her head. “Silly, don’t you think everything is going like how Ryan wanted at first?”
“Wait what?”
Allison remembered when Ryan told her that he had a plan to make Ethan regret it. She had declined his offer and explained to him that she had no interest in taking any form of revenge.
“No way, Teresa. He had said something about revenge. I am not going to take any retaliation.”
It was time to attend their next class. They headed to their class.
After all the classes, Allison said goodbye to Teresa and took a cab.
She went to the pack house. It was her time for training so she came
here.
She did not enter the residential area. She proceeded to the training hall directly.
She saw many boys there. Her legs froze outside. Every single one of them did not have a shirt on and was simply wearing workout
trousers.
Ethan stood directly in front of them. He did not have a shirt on either. His muscles were clearly visible. Since his entire body was drenched in sweat, it was clear that he had been instructing those young men for a long time.
She just stood there and started watching his movements. He possessed a high level of fighting ability. When she watched him fighting a boy for everyone to see, she was utterly taken aback.
He appeared to be furious in some way. So his punches were hard, and the boy looked scared as he took several powerful blows from
him.
“Don’t be scared, even if the enemy is stronger than you. Your fear will only make him stronger.” Ethan yelled at him.
“Y-Yes, Alpha.” The boy let out a scream and tried to attack him.
But he was Alpha Ethan. He grabbed his hands and tossed him to the ground.
Allison felt nervous for the boy. He looked the same as hers. ‘What if he gets hurt? Why is he striking him like that? What exactly is wrong with him?’ She thought about Ethan as she watched the fight.
“Allison?”
She turned around when she heard someone’s voice.
“Wade”
It was Ethan’s best friend and the soon-to-be beta of this pack, Wade. He was entering the training hall when he saw her standing outside.
“Why are you not going inside?” Wade asked as he stood beside her.
Allison glanced at Ethan and replied to Wade,
“What’s wrong with him today? Why is he so angry?”
“Who knows? He did not even go to school today and told othe come for training.”
“How long are they training here?”
“Six hours.”
“WHAT?”
Allison’s voice echoed throughout the room as she asked loudly.
Everyone turned their heads toward her. Ethan stopped his training
and looked at her.
Allison felt embarrassed. She should not have shouted like that.
“I mean, six hours? How? Does he want to kill others?”
“Maybe. He is not talking to anyone from last night. You can ask him.
Perhaps he will answer you.” Wade replied and chuckled.
“Everyone, your training is over for today. Don’t forget to come back tomorrow at the exact time.” Ethan told the pack fighters.
They felt relieved. They nodded and thanked him. They almost
collapsed when they started to walk,
Allison entered the hall and stood in a corner. Those pack fighters were glancing at her before leaving the training hall.
She saw that Wade had also left with them.
She glanced at Ethan. He took a white towel and wiped his hair, then moved it to his bare chest.
She looked away from his body and asked,
“I heard you were training them for six hours straight. Do you want to train me today, or will I come tomorrow?”
“Go and change your clothes.” He sounded like he was ordering. His tone was not friendly at all.
She headed to the changing room and put on her training clothes.
When she came back, she saw that the door was closed.
“Why did you close the door?” She asked him.
He was standing beside a window, looking outside.
He turned around and stepped towards her. He stopped in front of her and replied,
“So that no one can disturb us in training.”
Chapter 49
Before Allison could say anything, Ethan pulled her hand and
attempted to punch her back, but she blocked the blow with the other hand. It was his technique. He showed them to her to protect herself. She was using them against him today.
“Nice try.” He muttered.
He went for her right arm and landed a punch on it.
“Aahhh!” She let out a cry.
It did not stop him. He attempted to hit her shoulder, but she grabbed his hands and pushed him.
“What’s wrong with you, Ethan?” She asked in a high tone.
“You wanted me to train you like a kid? Then sorry, Allison Clark. I am an Alpha. I can’t do that anymore.” He let out, and his leg hit
lightly to get her leg. She fell to the ground.
She glared at him. “You are hurting me intentionally.”
“So what? You should defend yourself. Your enemy won’t show mercy to you in war. They will crack your neck in one go.”
Allison got mad at him. She gathered all of her strength and stood up.
He tried to attack, but she dodged his every hit. She practiced with him all these times, so she knew his moves now. But she knew it was nothing in front of how he trained those boys. He was going easy
with her.
She tried to grab his hands, but he spun her around quickly. Her back was pressed hard against his bare chest. It appeared as though he was trying to cross her hands with his own. She tried to put up a fight,
but he was strong as a rock. After she struggled for so long without success, she gave up and just remained there, making no attempt to break free of his clutches.
“I didn’t know that you liked clubs and parties.”
She heard him. He was a tall man, the same height as Ryan.
He bent his neck, and she heard his words in her ear once more.
“Or do you only like it when you are with my brother?”
Allison frowned and tried to move, but his hold became increasingly tight.
“This is the same position. You were beaming your smile at him. After Heft the club, you seemed to have a great time at the party.”
“What are you saying?”
“I have seen those pictures…” He uttered those words, had a little pause, and then murmured,
“But I don’t like them at all. You were not looking good with him. He doesn’t deserve to be with you like that.”
She froze at his whispers. It took time for her to get her mind back.
“Leave me.” She spoke out in anger.
He loosened his grip, and she turned around. However, he was not ready for her next move. The moment she turned around, she
punched the left side of his chest with all of her strength.
He took a step back and touched his heart.
“You don’t have any right to talk to me like that.”
When he heard her, glared at her.
He rushed to her, and it startled her. She thought he would hit her but
her back got pressed against a pillar. She shut her eyes tightly.
“You thought I would hit you?” He asked while looking at her expression.
She opened her eyes and looked at him. “You have already done it.” She gritted her teeth and replied.
“It was a part of training. I wanted to show you what the actual attack looks like.”
“I see.” She tried to push him, but he grabbed her hands to keep her from moving.
“I am telling you again. He is not good for you. He is not someone you can believe in. He will ruin you.”
“Shut up! What are you blabbering about? There is nothing between me and him. And even if we have, that’s none of your business, okay?”
“I will be the head Alpha. Securing my pack’s omegas is my duty.”
“Oh, then you should look at others too. I have my parents to look
after me.”
“Your dad told me to look after you.”
“What?”
Allison could not believe this. Why was his father doing that? The more she tried to stay away from Ethan, the more he tried to push her toward him. Why was that?
“Look, I don’t want to talk about Ryan. I came here to get trained. You better do your duty well. Stop interfering in my life.”
“Just promise me one thing.”
“Why would I?”
He ignored her question and said,
“Don’t fall for him ever. He is trying to destroy you.”
“What are you talking about? Why would I fall for hi-”
Allison was interrupted by chest pain.
“Aahhh!”
She rubbed her chest. Ethan immediately let her hands go and asked,
“What happened?”
“AAAAHHH!”
She fell to the ground while clutching her heart over her clothes.
“What’s happening to you?” Ethan lifted her in his arms and rushed to the pack house.
He mind linked to Wade to call Linus and tell him to come there
immediately.
No one was in the living room, which made things easier. No one asked anything, and he went directly to his room.
Allison sobbed out of her suffering. It brought back the agony she had experienced after Ethan rejected her. Why was she feeling that again? Was her wolf leaving her? But why?
Ethan laid her on his bed and caressed her head.
“Don’t worry. Linus is on the way.”
“M-My wolf. It’s…” She could not help but cry in front of him.
Ethan’s eyes widened. He held her hand and asked, “What happened to your wolf?”
Allison was losing her mind in pain. She unintentionally told him
about her wolf.
“Y-You rejected me, and she was not reacting for a long time. Now that pain of that night came back to me again.”
“Pain?” Ethan stared at her.
He had no idea about how much pain she had to bear for him.
His eyes turned red. “Nothing will happen to your wolf. I promise.”
She shook her head and turned her head to the opposite side. If she lost her wolf, she would become a wolfless woman. How would she live in this werewolf world then? She would have to die.
Linus and Wade entered the room together. They puffed as if they
had come here in a hurry.
“What on earth happened, Allison?” Linus went to check on her.
“I want her wolf back, Linus.”
Ethan stood up and warned Linus that if Linus could not fix the situation, he would kill him.
Linus avoided the warning and checked on Allison. His worried face.
turned into a relaxed one.
He gave her an injection and said,
“It is a painkiller dose. You will be fine, Allison.”
She looked at him with glossy eyes. “My wolf…”
“She is totally back. It’s the pain she felt for you. Now that she is back, you have to take it for her.”
Allison’s eyes lit up. “S-She is back?”
Linus nodded his head. “You can try to reach her.”
She nodded and tried to connect with her wolf. She heard a painful
growl. Then she felt herself howling inside. Her wolf was howling in
sorrow.
Tears rolled down her cheeks. She let out a sigh while closing her eyes in pain.
“Yes, she is finally back to me.”
Chapter 50
Ethan was sitting on the bed. His fingers were running through Allison’s hair. She was lying on his bed. Her pain caused her to go numb, and the dose made her sleep to get rid of the pain.
Linus and Wade were sitting on the couch. Their eyes were on Ethan.
“She told me about it the next day you rejected her.” Linus explained all the things to Ethan.
Ethan’s gaze was fixed on Allison. He did not move his eyes from her
for a second.
“Ethan.”
Wade called him but he was silent. His mind was messed up. He was getting angry at himself.
“It was all my fault.”
Linus and Wade both turned quiet. They were in accord with it.
“I should have thought about her before. I assumed it one week before her birthday. Still, I did this to her.”
After half an hour, Linus and Wade left the room, leaving Ethan and
Allison alone.
After what seemed like a few hours, Allison finally opened her eyes. The ceiling was unknown to her. Almost instantaneously, she sat up.
“How are you feeling now?” She heard Ethan beside her.
She turned to the side and was stunned. He was sitting on the bed
beside her.
“Good.” She replied.
She noticed a blanket wrapped around her. She pushed the blanket away from her body and tried to get down of the bed.
He grabbed her wrist. “Where are you going?”
“I should leave now.”
“You are not well yet.”
She touched her heart with her other hand. “I am totally fine now. In fact, I just became fine.”
She got her wolf back. What else could she possibly want more of?
“Leave my hand. My mom and dad must be getting worried about me.”
“I spoke with them a couple of hours ago.”
She turned to him. “You what? Why? Did you tell them everything?”
“Why didn’t you tell them?” He asked
She yanked her hand away and moved towards him. She pushed his chest with her hands.
“What did I say? How did their favorite Ethan reject me? Or how he left me to die in the forest? Or how I almost lost my wolf because of him?”
He was staring at her. He could not let out a single word. He was speechless.
She scoffed at him. But the next moment, she was taken aback.
Ethan drew her close to him and wrapped her tightly in a hug. She blinked her eyes several times. Her hands were in the air. She was hesitant to push him.
“I am sorry, Allison. Please forgive me. I was so wrong. I thought
about my pack. I only thought about it. I did not think about you at that time. But I should have thought about it. I forgot about the consequences and rejected you. But I swear, I thought about you too. Becoming a Luna was not easy. It would have also endangered you. They always attack Luna first to take down the Alpha. I did not want to take any risks. But I had failed to think about the outcomes of this rejection.”
Allison was staring at the blank wall. She was completely at a loss for
words.
She was so upset that tears were streaming out of her eyes and falling into his shirt.
As if his life depended on it, he stroked her hair and hugged her even more tightly than before.
“I know I have committed a deadly sin. But I am regretting it now. I can’t take it anymore. Should I die with the punishment? What can I do now? I am mourning in pain daily. How can you forgive me for the anguish I have caused you?”.
His broken voice shook her to her very core.
He was waiting for a response from her. But she kept quiet. He moved a little back and gazed directly at her. Their faces were very
close to one another.
“Will you be able to forgive me?”
Allison lowered her head and let out a long sigh.
“Look, Ethan. I decided a few days ago that when I get back my wolf, I will forgive you so that I can free myself from this tragedy of my life.”
He cupped her cheeks and wiped her tears.
“Don’t cry.”
She sobbed and pushed his hands slightly away.
“I am forgiving you. Because I can’t be selfish, not even as a strong girl. I also can’t handle going through that pain again. Therefore, it is best for me to forgive you and forget about those distressing
memories for the rest of eternity.”
She climbed down from the bed and then stood up next to it.
“From now on, our life is separating from here. I will see you as a head Alpha and won’t curse you for what you have done. We will be family friends, and it will be maintained like before. Because we
can not divide our family for us.”
She turned around and took her phone and bag, which were placed on -the nightstand.
“Where are you going?” He asked.
“My home.”
“You haven’t eaten anything yet.”
“Once I get back to my home, I will eat.”
She walked to the door and grabbed the doorknob.
“Allison.”
She turned around to face him. “What now?”
“What if I tell you that I don’t want our lives separated from each other?”
“W-What?”
“I want to be with you.”
She frowned at him. “What do you mean?”
“It hurt me deeply every time I saw you with Ryan. I don’t want you to be with anyone else. I want you to be with me only.”
As she moved closer to him, she laughed at the words he had just said. “Mr. Ethan Iverven, I just can’t believe what you are saying. How can Alpha Neil think of you as a head Alpha? You made a
joke about your fate and rejected me. Then you felt regret and asked for forgiveness. Now you have changed your mind and decided that you want to be with the same girl who your fate had chosen for you and who you foolishly rejected. I just can’t believe it. Do you think that you can play a game with my life? Am a toy that you can have fun with and then put away whenever you want?”
He shook his head. “I am not deceiving you in any way. I couldn’t help but fall for you. You are the only one to whom my heart truly belongs
now.”
She stared into his eyes, which were telling her that he was not lying.
Her heart was pounding inside. She chuckled at her stupid heart, which was still beating for him.
“I can’t.” She replied and turned around to leave.
But he hugged her from behind and rested his head on her neck, then
confessed to her,
“I fell in love with you, Allison.”
She closed her eyes and allowed her tears to flow freely.
Just as she was about to push his arms away from her waist, the
door burst open.
She opened her eyes and looked at the person who had opened the door.
“Ryan?”
