(Day 15)
“What do you mean you had a marriage?” Lily asked as she stared at me with so many questions flodding her eyes.
I smiled and looked down at my lap. “I was married a few years later when I had left the pack.”
“I still don’t get it…” Lily said as she bit her lip. I laughed a bit and patted her hand. “Well let me tell you the whole story first so you can understand.” She nodded her head and made the zipper motion over her lips.
“When I left the pack, I started a new life basically. I finished school and went to university. Got my degree and I was set for the perfect job. I bought a house. A really lovely house that had flowers around the sides of it. There was a tiny pond in the front of the house that had my koi fishes in there.
Everything was perfect for a few years. It was the time of month when I had to go get some daily health check ups because… I am human you know so my immune system isn’t strong like a werewolf.” I teased her, and she laughed before nodding her head, encouraging me to go on.
“Everything was… fine. So as I was heading out of the office and into the hallway, I bumped into him.” A smile slowly spread across my lips as I recalled that memory. “He’s absolutely handsome. He had brown hair, you know the type of hair that makes you want to run your fingers through. His beautiful eyes that can make you get lost in them in a snap of fingers. And those lips aha… Those lips that with one single movement it can make your heart stop.
“He made me feel all of those feelings. The feelings that I thought I had lost when Xavier… but he
brought that out of me. It was strange because I did not know him. We were strangers at that
moment. I thought you know, I would not see him ever again, but the more that I visited the
hopsital the more we kept on bumping into each other. That sparked us to speak well for him that is.
I was scared still of the thought that Xavier and Jayden might try to find me and drag me back by my hair to the pack. But when he talked to me, he magically wiped that thought away. He made me feel
safe for the very first time in my life.
“He was really strange. A strange boy he was. But that was something unique about him. The more
we talked in the hospital, through texts or phone calls. The more my heart started falling for him. I fell for him so hard that I could tell him everything…”
“Tell him everything?” Lily said softly. I looked at her and nodded my head.
“Yes everything. I told him about werewolfs. I first thought that he would think that I was crazy for saying all of that but instead, he took my hand and held it. Looking at me straight in the eyes and
‘saying that he believes me. It broke me down to be honest. I was bawling my eyes out that I finally

got the courage to say something about my past. You see the very first week, he told me about his family and lifestyle. But I couldn’t share anything because of the oath that we were under when in a pack. But it came to me that I was no longer a pack member so I could say anything with my own free will.
“Because of the amount of trust I held to him, I told him about the suffering I had to go through and he was angry. He wanted to go find the pack but I didn’t let him. Because I knew that if I allowed him to do that, he would not return. A few weeks later after my confession, he suddenly told me some news that made my heart break.
“He had cancer and there was no way for the doctors to save him. That he chose to live his life until the timer dings. He told me that…. that I brought him out of his darkness, that I was a beacon for him and it was my choice if I wanted anything to do with him. Do you know how much that hurt when he thinks that I didn’t want anything to do with him?? It hurts like hell. It felt like my heart was being ripped apart again. I told him that I would never leave his side. That I fell in too deep already and that there was no way of me getting out of it. And it made me happy to see him brighten up again.
