I sat right next to him and stared at his sleeping face. "I'm sorry. I can't let you see me like this. You deserve someone strong and beautiful. I am nothing but a weak and useless she-wolf." I said out loud. I got up and went downstairs. I was going to go back to my apartment, but there was heavy rain outside. It would make it harder for me to get out of the no-man's-land safely. 'Is your decision already final?' Avi asked. 'Yes, Avi. I don't want to be around when he wakes up. I can't handle another breakup. Not from my mate. The less he knows, the better.' I replied. 'How are you so sure that he is going to reject us? We haven't even met him properly. What if he is not like Uriah?' She asked. 'I don't want to get my hopes high and then end up getting hurt. Yes, he may not be like Uriah. He can be the worst.' I replied. I stood by the door and watched as the rain fell and the thunder roared. They were like music to my troubled heart. At least, even for a little while, all the pain would go. If only the rain could wash all my pain away. Once the rain stopped, I would go back to my apartment and pack my bags. I would go as far away as possible from here. What he doesn't know won't hurt him. For now, I was going to let the rain numb my pain away. That was, until he engulfed me in a hug. "Mate." he groaned.

Chapter 1 The Breakup

MAIA'S POV

They said that finding your mate was the best thing in the world, well at least that was what they said in our world. That day, I was about to know if my boyfriend of three years was my mate or not. Deep inside, I hoped he was my mate.

Ever since my parents died, I have always had trust issues. It scared me because no one was there to protect me anymore. I had been all myself until Uriah came.

On my way to the park, I sent Uriah a text letting him know I had arrived at our meeting place. I sat at our favorite swing as I waited for him. Wearing the best dress I had, I did my best to look as pretty as possible. I wanted to be the most beautiful she-wolf when we found out if we were mates.

I have been waiting for an hour and there were still no signs of Uriah.

"Where could he be?" I asked myself.

I sent him another text asking his whereabouts. Another ten minutes passed and there were still no signs of him. I was getting uneasy in my place. Especially since the skies were turning gray, and it looked like it was about to rain.

"Really? Out of all the dates we have had, he had to keep me waiting on the most special day of all. This birthday is getting worse." I complained to no one in particular.

Instead of sending him another text, I called him. I waited for him to pick up his phone as it rang.

*KRING KRING*

*KRING KRING*

*KRING KRING*

*Hi, it's Uriah. I am busy at the moment. Leave a message, and I will get back to you once I am free. Bye.*

"Damn, that voicemail!" I cursed.

*KRING KRING*

*KRING KRING*

*KRING KRING*

"Come on, Uriah. Pick up the damn call." I muttered to myself.

Another ten minutes had passed, and there were still no signs of Uriah. I felt a raindrop on my arm, so I went straight to his apartment instead of waiting. Luckily, his apartment was not far. I took a cab when the rain poured.

"To the Villas, please," I said to the driver upon entering the cab.

The ride to his apartment only took ten minutes, but that ten minutes cost me my one day salary. What annoyed me was that as soon as we left the park, the rain stopped.

After giving the driver my payment, I went down and smoothed my cramped dress. I looked up and was about to cross the street when I saw Uriah standing outside his apartment gate. Instead of calling his name, I crossed the street to surprise him.

I was going to surprise him. Instead, he surprised me.

He was standing there kissing another woman. It was not a quick peck on the lips or the cheeks. It was a literal French kiss style.

I was fuming with anger. I stormed up to them and pulled Uriah by his shoulder. When he was facing me already, I gave him a good slap on the face.

*SLAP*

"This is for keeping me waiting while you are here mouth fucking another girl." I said.

*SLAP*

"This is for cheating on me."

*SLAP*

"And this is for the end of our relationship. We are over." I spat before leaving.

Thanks to Uriah, I now hated my birthday, but I hated him more. It filled my heart with so much pain and anger as I ran to the only place that was a haven to me - Faro De Leotava.

No one came to this place for several reasons. One, everyone had already abandoned it after the great storm that killed hundreds of werewolves and humans. Two, it was on no-man's-land. No one dared to go in the no-man's-land except those badass rogues or a mighty Alpha. Three, both humans and werewolves, had forsaken this place after the great storm. I don't actually understand why they hated the lighthouse when the place had got nothing to do with what happened.

When I found this lighthouse weeks after the storm, it was a total wreck. I fixed most of the broken parts of the lighthouse, like the doors, windows, and the cupboards. I made a make-shift bed on the top floor of the lighthouse.

After cleaning the whole place, I took some stuff like a pillow, blanket, a couple of pairs of clothes, a towel, toiletries, and a few stashes of soup and noodles. Whenever I came here, I would stay overnight. Sometimes, I stayed for a couple of days.

I threw the first thing my eyes landed on when I opened the door - the chair that I just recently fixed. One by one, all the stuff began flying and hitting the wall. I did not stop until I thrashed the whole place.

'Was I not good enough?'

'What was wrong with me? Was there something missing from me?'

'Am I a disgrace?'

I wanted answers.

It had been a week since I turned 18th and not once did I leave the lighthouse. I had been laying down in the middle of the mess I had made. Crying myself to sleep and waking up only to cry again.

'Maia, please stand up. I can't let you stay like this anymore. You deserve so much more. Don't let a worthless person like him define who you are. You should waste none of your precious tears on him.' Avi, my wolf, said.

'Avi, I don't assume you understand what I'm going through. I literally saw my boyfriend of 3 years kissing another woman on the day of my birthday.' I replied.

'I know it hurts, Maia, but that doesn't mean it's the end of the world.' She snapped.

'I need time to heal, Avi. He just broke my heart. I can't amend it overnight.' I replied.

'Why don't you go out for a run? Release all your anger and frustration in running.' She suggested.

After giving it much thought, I took her advice. I ran through the forest until I grew tired. I stopped by the lake to have a drink when the rain poured again. This time, it poured heavily. It seemed like there was a terrible storm that hit our town.

I shifted back to my human form and had a dip in the lake. The heavy rain and the smell of the muddy forest would cover up my scent and I would be safe from any rogues.

Instead of running back into my wolf form, I took a jog in my human form. Pictures of Uriah and that bitch kissing were still floating in my mind. I wanted to scratch that bitch's face.

My mind was going through many evil plans for both of them when Avi suddenly freaked out.

'Maia! STOP!' Avi yelled in my head.

'What is it, Avice?' I asked, using her full name.

'Can't you smell it? The forest is reeking with blood.' She exclaimed.

Then it hit me, like an ice cold bucket of water - blood. Someone was in the forest with me and that person was close by. Suddenly, my heart started beating fast.

I stood behind a tree as I stared at nothing but the dark forest.

'Shit! I don't know where I am and I can barely see a thing in this storm.' I said.

I froze in my place when I heard a twig snap.

Werewolf

Try being the youngest sister to six older controlling brothers, all of whom are alphas. Life can be difficult. I would never have even thought of having a boyfriend or getting out on a date. Most girls played with dolls and tea sets. Not me, because my brothers wanted to wrestle, kick, and fight from a young age. The boys taught me to kick anyone's butt from here to China. It was just as enjoyable in high school. My brothers, who are closest to me in age, always monitor me, and if they can not do that, then their friends take care of it. For me, escaping becomes second nature. In the event they were determined to watch my every move, I would give them reasons to do so. In response, I begin skipping classes and flooding the boys' bathroom with toilet paper. I begin dressing sexily in class. As a result, I would ask my brothers' friends out in a sexy manner. I have a blast until the Alpha (my oldest brother) assigns me a bodyguard. As I look at him impishly, I say, "I can outsmart you, Wolf." Besides ditching him, I go to the mall with my friends and skip school. You're probably wondering how my grades were. It's no problem, I'm a genius and I don't have to study to be on the honor roll. In the mall, I get caught by all six of my brothers. Cameron, my oldest brother, picks me up and throws me over his shoulder. I laugh as I wave goodbye to my friends. I watch as my friends gawk at my brothers. I know some of my friends are in love with them. My brothers wave to my friends after they say goodbye. As I turn 16, I am so excited to finally attend highschool by myself, as my two brothers who are still in highschool are graduating this year. There is no such luck. The Alpha tells the school to test me out, and I am also graduating from highschool, and I will attend the same University my brothers are planning to attend. Moon Goddess, what have I done wrong?

A rise in the temperature, the whole body seemed to be lighten by flame. Bane Reed staggered to open the room306 and swiftly fell into the bed. Although the alcohol had almost paralysed her brain, there was still one thought in her mind that could not be taken away by those men. At that moment there was a heavy breathing responding in the dark room. "Get out of here!" Bane Reed was losing her mind when she heard the footsteps outside. 'Don't! Don't take me away, I can't go out. ' Bane Reed knew exactly what would happen to her when she was taken away by the hooligans. She rushed at the man, holding on tightly to his clothes, saying, "Help me, please. I need you to call the police." "Let go!" "No, please." "Get out of here!" There was a trace of anger in the man's voice. The wisp of reason in Bane's mind was going to be gone. All she knew was that she would not let go of the man's clothes. There was a mixed look on the man's face as he listened to the approaching footsteps outside. The men had been chasing him, and had done such wicked things as drugging him. He was on the point of losing his mind, and this woman had to come to him at this very moment. 'It's not my fault, but don't regret it! Bane had no idea what was going to happen next. Her only conscious moment was to grab the man in front of her, until a sharp pain from behind woke her up a bit. Bane pushed her capers frantically, to no avail, her voice so hoarse that she could not make a sound. The man swore under his breath, obviously not expecting the woman to be a stranger. "I'm sorry, I'll be responsible for you."

"President, Madam has left. But before she left, she asked me to give this to you." Bill said and handed the documents to Waylon. Waylon Gray looked at it and saw that it was their divorce agreement. He looked at the file in his hand with a mocking and contemptuous expression on his face. He then thought about what trick does Alena Wright wanted to play. "Don't worry about her." Waylon threw the divorce agreement aside with disdain, and the mocking expression on his face became stronger. Then he said, "I want to see what tricks she is going to play!" After Alena Wright returned to the villa, she packed up her things. Since she has decided to divorce Waylon Gray, she knew that she was no longer eligible to live there. Fortunately, she has already agreed with her girlfriend Darcy Harrington in advance.

After living in Darcy's house, Alena was ready to find a job. Alena studied jewelry design, so she sent her resume to several well-known jewelry design companies. Within two days, she received an interview notice from the Cohen Group. Alena cleaned up and went directly to the Cohen Group. As soon as she walked through the hall of Cohen Group, she saw a familiar figure. Alena suddenly stiffened, and her face was pale. Not far away, the door of the elevator was slowly closing, and the person in the elevator that she saw was actually Waylon Gray. She was confused and wondered why he was there. The building was for Cohen Group, not Monarch International Group. When she submitted her resume, she deliberately avoided the company under Waylon's name. Now she was really wondering why she would see him there. She then thought that it may be just a coincidence. Alena was a little flustered and forced down the bitterness in her heart. Then she realized that her relationship with him was now over, and they have nothing to do with each other anymore.
