Chapter 1 Clara's Dreamy World

Clara Henry stood on her family's big balcony, feeling the cool morning breeze against her skin. She wore a soft silk robe that swayed gently in the wind. Below her, the gardens were a sight to behold. Flowers bloomed in a riot of colours, perfectly arranged like a painting. It was beautiful, no doubt. Still, Clara felt a hole inside her that couldn't be filled. Everyone thought life was perfect for her, the only child of one of the richest families in the country. But richness didn't buy happiness.

At twenty-one, she had the looks and grace of a model. Her long, wavy hair framed her face, which lit up with a natural glow. But it was her deep brown eyes that told a different story. They showed her intelligence and longing. To many, she appeared perfect. Yet, Clara wanted something deeper. She craved true love, not the kind that came with expectations because of her family's name. The many men who pursued her only made her feel worse. They were charming, but their true motives always showed up sooner or later.

Her parents, Gregory and Margaret Henry, gave her all the possible luxuries. They sent her on fancy vacations and even paid for her spot at Hillcrest University, the best school around. Their plan was clear: surround Clara with the elite. But instead of feeling special, she often felt like she didn't fit in. All she wanted was something real-an experience that went beyond appearances and privilege.

Just as she was lost in thoughts, her phone buzzed, pulling her back to the present. She smiled when she saw the name flashing on the screen: Adaora, her best friend from childhood.

"Good morning, daydreamer," Adaora teased. "What's your plan for today?"

Clara let out a soft sigh. "Oh, you know. Just classes, and probably some family stuff. Just another day in my life."

Adaora chuckled. "Oh, the drama of being rich and beautiful! My heart aches for you."

Clara laughed, but there was a little sadness in her tone. "If only it were that simple."

They chatted for a while, and it felt great to forget her worries. But as the call ended, Clara found herself thinking deeply again. She got ready and hopped into her sleek black car, driving through the grand gates of Hillcrest University. As she arrived, she couldn't shake off a strange feeling. Something seemed like it was about to shift in her life.

Hillcrest University was buzzing with life. Students zipped across the perfectly kept lawns, surrounded by impressive old buildings that held a lot of history. Clara walked gracefully, catching the eyes of many as she headed to her first class: Literature and Society, which she loved. She chose her usual seat by the window, where she could see the vibrant campus life outside. But today, her mind wandered elsewhere.

The lecture kicked off, and the professor introduced the day's topic. Suddenly, a voice broke through. It wasn't loud, but it commanded attention. Deep and sure, it added energy to the room. Curious, Clara turned to look.

And there he was. Jack. He stood tall, with sharp features and an easy confidence that grabbed her attention. Dressed casually in a simple shirt and jeans, it was his aura that stood out. As he spoke passionately, the room buzzed with excitement. Clara couldn't help but stare.

As the class continued, Clara found it hard to focus on anything else. Jack wasn't just smart; he was also magnetic. His enthusiasm for literature sparked a fire in the room. When the bell rang, she felt a strong urge to know more about him.

As classmates filtered out, she lingered a bit longer, pretending to look at her notes. She watched Jack chatting with a friend, his face animated and lively. Taking a deep breath, she decided to introduce herself.

"Hi," she said, her voice steady, even though her heart raced. "I'm Clara."

Jack looked a bit surprised but quickly smiled back. "Hi, Clara. I'm Jack."

She felt her cheeks heat up as she continued. "I really liked what you said in class today. You have a cool way of looking at things."

Jack smiled warmly, brightening up. "Thanks! Literature helps me understand the world. It's the one thing that stays the same when everything else is chaotic."

Clara nodded, feeling connected. "I think so too. Do you want to grab coffee sometime and talk more about it?"

Jack looked a little uncertain for a moment, but then a smile spread across his face. "I'd like that."

They swapped numbers, and as Clara left, her heart raced. It had been ages since she felt a spark with someone. She was hopeful, imagining what could happen. But while her mind danced with excitement, Jack's thoughts were also heavy. He remembered her last name and wondered how that might affect things. He liked her but questioned what being with someone like Clara Henry could mean for his future.

Later that evening, Clara returned home, still thinking about Jack. His words echo in her mind, as did his charming smile. For the first time in a long while, she felt a glimmer of hope for something real.

But under that excitement lay a brewing storm. Her connection with Jack would challenge everything she thought she knew about love and trust. Though Clara dreamed of finding true love without any fakes, Jack's secrets threatened to shake the very ground beneath her.

18+, strong mature, and sexual content. Sneak peek: "W-what are you doing?" I asked, my breathing getting heavier as his warm fingers inched towards my bikini bottom. "You called me a coward earlier, remember?" He asked, his other hand wrapped around my throat and lips torturingly brushing over mine "So let's see how much you can handle if I break the boundaries." "I haven't said anything wrong," I breathed out, the collision of the heat of our bodies made the wetness between my thighs build more "Oh really?" He hooked my legs around his waist leaving me surprised I opened my mouth to say something but before any sentence could leave my mouth, sliding past my bikini bottom his fingers were there on my bare clit and the next second they thrust inside the very tight hole of mine leaving me to scream. But everything went silent as he pressed his hot lips upon mine just as I had been wanting since the first day I had ever seen him. **** I always knew the things I felt for Jacob Adriano were wrong in so many ways. He was my dad's best friend, totally out of bounds but I couldn't stop wanting him. And once in the event of my dad's destination wedding, I came across him after years...I lost every one of the boundaries I had and surely I planned to make him lose his ones too. After all Jacob Adriano, the sinfully attractive Italian was not unaware of my obsession with him. But little did know that forbidden relationships always bring havoc and demolition.....

My name is Katia, and I am just trying to survive until my fated mate arrives. Which may be easier said than done. Rejectection is the last straw. Whispering my acceptance of his rejection. I run through the pack house, out across the manicured lawn into the forest. "I'm sorry, my sweet girl," I say to my wolf. I'm sorry you have been stuck with me and have had to suffer everything I have. She whispers," it's not your fault, Katia. We came to a cliff with a waterfall. The hurt keeps pounding at me. I need it to stop. My sweet girl, and I just want peace, I keep running and leap off the cliff. Spreading my arms wide, with tears streaming down my face, I fall, not making a sound, waiting for sweet oblivion where we feel nothing ever again. "I love you, my sweet girl! Until we meet again, "My wolf replied just before we hit the water, "I love you too, Katia. I have never regretted a moment with you." The Snow Moon pack is having their last barbecue of the summer next to the waterfall on their land. The adults are laughing and joking while watching the pups play. The alpha, beta, and gamma are swimming with some of the older children and playing a game of Marco Polo. Someone yells, "Oh my goddess, someone just jumped over the waterfall!" Everyone is frozen as they watch what looks to be a child falling arms spread wide, no one makes a sound. The small body hits the water like a plane crashing into the side of a mountain. The alpha, beta, and gamma, spring into action, swimming towards the area the person went under. The alpha is screaming his wolf is going crazy repeating, "Find her. Find her...find her!" They dive and the beta surfaces with a small person in his arms. Alpha takes the girl from his beta, laying her on the ground. The men are shocked by what they see. She is covered in scars and injuries. Her body is twisted and broken. The Beta asks, "Who could have done this to someone so defenseless?" Alpha drops to his knees, repeating, "MATE...MATE...MATE!"
