One Year Later
“I got a ten–dollar tip!” 1 flashed the brand–new dollar in front of Emery’s face.
She frowned.
“What table did you wait for?”
“New guys. I hope they come back.
Emery placed her chin in her hand and exhaled. Her dark pigtails dangled on either side of her face in shiny coils.
“Lucky you. All I got was a coupon for doughnuts from Mr. Olsen.”
“At least we made rent before the month ends!” I beamed.
“Yeah, so a little treat tonight won’t hurt.”
I nibbled on my bottom lip. The full moon was tonight and for the past four months when the moon came around I got sick. I got churning pains and jabs coming from my stomach. My doctor visits proved pointless they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me.
It had been going on for four months which told me it wasn’t going to stop until something happened. When I called my Dad three weeks ago he told me to be ready for what this full moon had to offer.
It was very cryptic but I had a feeling I knew what he meant.
“I’d rather sleep, Emery those last night shifts killed me.”
She lifted a shoulder. “I’ll have to go out without you.
Emery and I found freedom and a home in a human town. Emery’s parents still called and demanded her to move back home but she didn’t want to be anyone’s slave. Anya hadn’t tried to contact me and neither had I.
I hadn’t heard from Kade since the night we separated. I rubbed the side of my neck. Where my mate mark used to be. When I closed my eyes at night I could still see Aiden Sander’s victorious smirk. He managed to rid his son of the disgraceful wolf–less girl.
Because of Kade’s rejection I hadn’t been able to go out with anyone. I didn’t feel good enough. Though, with humans, pack rank didn’t exist I wasn’t ready to put myself out there yet.
“I’m going on my break,” Emery said as she walked into the kitchen of the diner.
I had a few customers in the diner lingering in the comers after lunch so I busied myself with wiping the counter when the bell above the door chimed. I stuffed the clothe under the counter and pulled out my best smile.
When I looked up my smile drooped.

“Alex?”
Could someone change so much in a year?
He palmed the counter, leaning on it. A dark full beard covered his face and he had scars on his arms. His features had hardened over time if I didn’t know him like the back of my hand I would have doubted it was him.
“Hello, stranger.” The corner of his mouth lifted.
Regret crushed me. I never said goodbye but he didn’t know that I had no choice.
He walked in alone but as an Alpha heir I knew his betas were close by.
“What are you doing here? This is…” I looked around but all the customers were occupied.
“A human pack. What are you doing here?” He demanded. “You just vanished.”
Now would be a good time for my break. After ditching my apron, I took Alex’s hand and led him away from the diner. Emery and I shared an apartment ten minutes from here.
“Alex, why are you here?” I asked.
He chuckled sinisterly. “You’re kidding. I’ve been looking for you. You left without saying goodbye. Kade wouldn’t say anything and your friend was gone too. How could you do that?”
I couldn’t stand the disappointment on his face so I didn’t meet his eyes.
“I had no choice. Kade rejected me.”
“Excuse me?”
I turned into an alley Emery and I used to get to the stairs that took us home.
“You live here?” Alex frowned.
“It’s no five–star but it works,” I scoffed.
“Why didn’t you go back to Henry pack?”
We walked up the rickety metal stairs. “There was nothing left for me. Besides, a Hunter in a shifter community?”
I unlocked the door and sweet scent of lavender welcomed us. Alex scanned the living room. It had one bathroom and two bedrooms. We managed quite well here.
“You know I thought something happened to you.” Rage still dripped from his tone.
“My mate rejected me that’s as bad as it can get but I’m fine….
Alex joined me on the couch. I wanted to reach out and touch his face. For the last year I thought about what he was doing and how he was.

“I don’t need to ask why he rejected you. He did it to keep you safe.”
I wanted to ask how Kade was but I was trying to move on.
e gesture.
Alex rested his hand on my thigh and rubbed gently. Heat spread in my body from the simple He shifted closer so our thighs touched.
“I–is something going on in this town? I thought it was calm.”
“I was looking for you, Gabbie. I couldn’t forget about you, not again.”
He squeezed my thigh and I gasped softly.
“I made a mistake once and I’m not going to do it again.”
He fisted my hair and held my head in place with his free hand. Alex’s hand travelled up my thigh and came dangerously close to my underwear,
My breathing hiked and I couldn’t believe how willing my body was for this. Alex’s confidence rose
my head when I didn’t stop him. He tugged on my thong and yanked it down mid–thigh. He nudged forward so his lips connected with my jaw. The rumbling sound coming from his chest caused tingles in my body.
I nearly exploded with anticipation! He kissed my face renderly but left my vagina cold and neglected.
“Alex,” I whimpered,
He chuckled and nibbled on my car. “You made me wait a year.”
Alex positioned my body so I lay on my back on the couch. I swallowed. I was already dripping wet but my mind suddenly rang our alarms. Alex was my best friend and even if I didn’t like it my heart still belonged to Kade.
Kade wasn’t here and he wasn’t coming.
Alex kissed my lips before kissing down my neck to the cleavage of my uniform.
“You’re killing me!”
He laughed. “You smell so good, Gabbie.”
He lifted my uniform to reveal a wet and throbbing clit. Would he hurry up?
His cold fingers pressed against my clit and I whimpered as I raised my legs. Alex stroked my clit slowly and then quickly, making me gasp and grind against his fingers. It wasn’t enough I wanted more.
Withdrawing his fingers, he positioned his face between my legs and planted his mouth on my clit. Alex sucked me as if he’d been paid to do it. The room filled with my moans and then Alex inserted two fingers into my vagina.
Our eyes met for a brief moment before I threw my head back and cried. He curled his fingers and pushed them in and out rapidly. My orgasm was close and I could tell it was going to be intense.

“Alex!” I cried.
1 climaxed but Alex continued fingering me. He intended to give me maximum pleasure. He left me shaking and panting.
“You good?” He asked.
“Yeah.. crazy good.”
He laughed. We lay on the couch trying to compose ourselves.
“I have to go but I don’t want to leave you here.”
“What do you mean?” I asked.
“I mean I want you to come back to the pack with me I’m not letting you go this time.
“Alex…” Kade’s image flashed in my mind. He wouldn’t like what we did but he left me.
“Gabbie, he left. I’m here.”
“I know!” I snapped.
“Then come with me.” He stood. “I’m leaving tomorrow afternoon. I’m staying at the Plaza. If you show up, then we’ll leave together. If you don’t show understand.”
I’ll
“Alex please don’t do this…”
“This is the only way, Gabbie. I hope I’ll see you tomorrow.”
He left the apartment and left me with an ultimatum.
