I honestly try my best not to think of that night as much as possible. Done everything I can to block it from my memory. But it still haunts me. The fire, the screams, and two glowing blue eyes.... ready to swallow me whole if I moved the wrong way or even breathed a way I wasn't supposed to...Growls chase me as I run through the woods. All four feet pounding away at the ground, not able to slow down for even a second or the forsaken would catch me. I had been taking a bath in a nearby river when they came out of nowhere. It was at least three of them that I saw before I shifted and ran. They had been stalking me from the slow movements I saw.Unfortunately, I left my clothes as I didn't have a chance to grab them. If I had tried, I'm sure I wouldn't be alive right now.I take a turn a little too sharply and lose my balance for a split second and one bites into my hind leg. A pained howl leaves me and I kick and kick until it lets go. My speed is now greatly reduced due to only being

《Eliza POV》 Tingles everywhere. I felt them very strongly as I slowly came to again which could only mean one thing. My mate was with me. I slowly open my eyes and look up. There he was, looking down at me. I could see the joy in his eyes before I moved away. “Stay away from me… please,” I ask. “You're alive? You're awake?” he questioned. I nodded slowly and he smiled like his world had been complete again. Everything I wanted was right here in front of me, but all I could hear was my heart pounding like drums in my ears. “What's your name?” My name.. he asked for my name. I could barely get a comprehensive thought together with the sparks that were flying through me from being so close to my mate. "Eliza," I whisper. "Eliza," he repeats as if it's the most amazing thing he's ever heard. I nod. He gets off the bed and walks over to me, cupping my face. I wait patiently to learn his name and he seems to realize that after a few seconds of silence. "Where are my manners?” 'Consideri

《Eliza》I couldn't believe it. He went to her when she broke down after all I did was merely yell at her. This curse was relentless and merciless. Why give me my mate and then take him away? Tears burned in my eyes from it and I walked away.Celeste whimpers from the growing distance between us and Kyle, and the fact that our mate was with another woman. But why would I be surprised? We were looking ago cast away by Wolf Society for something we didn't even cause. “Miss Eliza?” someone calls out.I turn to find a dark skinned man with hazel eyes and dark curly hair approaching me. He was actually pretty attractive and for a second I thought of the best revenge. But I wasn't like my mate. I refused to be with someone else. “What?” I demand.“You're still unclothed,” he points out, handing me a pair of pants. “My name is Dean Matthews, the Beta of Silver Woods pack.” I nod and take the pants from him, quickly putting them on and looking at my leg where the forked had bitten it. There was

《Kyle》"Let her get adjusted to life here, Anna, before we go and give her to the wolves. Literally," I joke. The guys laughed, but the girls didn't. Oof. Tough crowd.Anna rolls her eyes at me. "Fine. You both have a month and then I'm taking off to tell Mom and Dad they're grandparents and Eliza is alive." Eliza snaps her head in Anna's direction and then looks at her stomach."You're pregnant?!" she squeals and Anna grins, nodding happily. Before I know it, both girls are jumping up and down for joy. "What are you going to name them?""I'm not sure yet, but I'll have to talk it over with Felix," Anna explains. Felix has a smug look on his face while he watches his mate bounce with excitement. His eyes slowly turn black and Dean looks at him.He puts a hand on Felix's chest. "Slow down big guy. She's pregnant and with her family whom she hasn't seen in what probably feels like forever." Dean whispers. The women are too excited over the baby to even notice us men. But I can see why h
