He bowed in return, mirroring my gesture with perfect grace.
A small, surprised chuckle escaped me. He laughed too-soft, warm-and in that instant, something bright and electric sparked inside my chest.
My heart began to race. Heat crept up my cheeks.
“I should go now,” he murmured.
I nodded, but before either of us could move-
A low growl ripped through the night.
A wild wolf lunged from the darkness, straight at him.
He reacted instantly, spinning with lethal speed. His fist was already rising to strike when the wolf’s
paw hooked the edge of his mask and yanked it free.
The blow landed anyway-hard and clean.
For one perfect, moonlit second, the full moon lit his face like daylight.
Julio.
The future Alpha Julio.
My breath caught. My heart slammed against my ribs.
His eyes widened the instant he realized the mask was gone. Panic flashed across his features.
I turned my head quickly, pretending I hadn’t seen a thing.
“It’s that bastard,” he muttered under his breath, voice tight.
I couldn’t stop the smile from spreading across my face.
“Go now,” he said urgently.
I nodded, voice barely a whisper. “Thank you.”
Then I bolted toward the road, cheeks burning, heart soaring.
I had been saved by Julio-the future Alpha himself.
It was the best night of my life.
I must have pretended well enough that I didn’t recognize him. I couldn’t stop the happiness
bubbling inside me, wild and bright and unstoppable.

Clay
Sitting here now, the memories flood back so clearly it almost hurts. That night in the woods, Julio
had been… different. So different from the man I saw the very next day.
The way he had hesitated when I reminded him who I was-frowning for a heartbeat before that
slow, practiced smile slid into place. “Oh, yeah.” Casual. Polite. Distant.
But that night, under the full moon, he had been soft. Gentle. His voice low and careful, his touch
steady when he carried me, the way he mirrored my bow with that beautiful, hidden smile. There.
had been something real in his eyes then-something unguarded.
Now that I think about it, he wasn’t soft with me like that after that night.
And yet… I had fallen for him the moment our hands touched. Completely. Irrevocably.
He had fallen too-or at least, I believed he had. We spent endless nights and stolen days together. Whispered promises. Tangled limbs. Laughter in the dark. And on that one fateful night, I gave him everything my virginity, my trust, my heart-wrapped in the certainty that he was mine and I was
his.
I thought nothing could break us.
I was wrong.
I was just another girl he slept with. Another secret. Another mistake he could walk away from.
When he married Violet-his true mate, the one fate had chosen-I shattered. Especially when I already carried his child.
