Nadine's pov

I was still waiting for the doctor and my parents to arrive when Alex walked inside the cabin. Her eyes met mine and they softened, she quickly looked the other way.

"Alex!" I called for her, she stopped at the stairs and turned to look at me.

"Can I talk to you for a second please?" She sighed hesitating at first but walked towards the couch. She sat in front of me, I tried to sit up but I ended up pressing on my foot making me whince in pain.

Alex jumped to my side and helped me sit up more comfortably, her arm was behind my back while the other was under my legs. I looked up at her and she was looking at me with a worried look, her face was all freckled and her reddish eyes were almost glowy.

She had a frown so I gave myself the permission to softly caress her forehead, my fingers went lower than I thought and they rested on her cheek.

Feeling the tension build up between us since we were very close has mad me blush and look away from her.

"Ehm..." I cleared my throat when she didn't move back, when she made sure I was comfortable she went and sat back on the couch in front of me.

"Are you okay?" I asked since it was the only thing I could think about, her eyes were looking at me and I saw a smile creep on her face. She chuckled and brushed her hair back.

"You have a broken ankle and you're asking me if I'm okay?" She asked sarcastically which made me feel stupid, I was just trying to see if she was okay since earlier she looked like she was in pain.

"I- Nadine. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it in a bad way" she quickly apologized when she saw my frown,

"It's fine" I said avoiding her eyes, why do I even care if she's okay or not. She'll never change, and she'll always try to make me feel stupid. I felt a hand on my chin, Alex was back next to me with a small smile.

"I'm not being sarcastic or trying to make you feel stupid Nadine, I was just surprised that you'd think of me first and you're the one who's hurt" she said in a soft voice, the distance between was shrinking the more I stared into her eyes. Her lips looked very appealing and tasty, and I wanted to feel them on mine.

I don't know who leaned in first but our lips were already brushing against each other, I felt small sparkles and an electrifying feeling all over my lips and body. My heart was trying to break out of my ribcage while my whimpers were slowly exiting my throat, her lips were so soft and warm and they fit perfectly with mine.

"Nadine!" The voice of my momma made me jump away, Alex was already on the other side of the couch breathing heavily. Her cheeks were so red, I've never seen her blush before, it was very adorable.

"Oh baby! Are you okay?!" My momma ran in the cabin, I don't think she saw us kiss because she was too busy crying.

"Momma, I'm fine. I just hurt my ankle" I explained still not over what happened a few seconds ago. My momma sat next to me and wrapped her arms around my shoulders.

"I promise momma I'm okay" I chuckled tapping her hand, my mom walked in the cabin with a frown, she scanned the room and her eyes met with Alex.

"Did you cause this?!" She said stepping closer to Alex, my heart was beating so hard I didn't want them to fight. Alex stayed quiet and avoided looking at my mother.

"Mom, I'm fine. I tripped and hurt my ankle. Alex wasn't even there" I explained trying to calm my mother who looked like she was about to blow up on Alex.

"Where is this doctor?" My momma asked, on time, a man walked in with a briefcase in his hand followed by the teacher from earlier. The doctor examined my foot for a few minutes and sighed.

"I'm afraid your ankle is broken, you should go to the hospital to get a cast" he said while taking off his gloves. I rolled my eyes and laid back against my mother who looked very worried.

"Mom it's just a broken ankle, it's not like they'll cut my leg off" I tried to lighten the mood but it wasn't working at all. My mom had her hand on her forehead looking tired of my shit.

"Let's go baby" she sighed and picked me up, I looked at Alex who was just standing in the middle of the room staring at us leave. I wanted her to follow after me so we can talk about what happened, but she didn't move and I watched as the car drove away from the camp leaving Alex and what happened behind me.

********

I laid on the hospital bed staring at the ceiling with all different types of thoughts running through my head. Why can't I stop thinking of her, of the kiss, I shouldn't be wanting more.

But everytime I think of her my heart loses its rythme and my stomach starts to hurt for some reason.

Do I want more? Do I want her? Did I enjoy that kiss? Well it seems like I did since I can't stop thinking about it...

"Honey?" I looked to my left and my mom was standing next to my bed.

"You were day dreaming, are you okay?" She asked holding my hand, I smiled in reassurance and nodded my head.

"I have to tell you something" I was thinking of all the worst scenarios, did someone die? Was I dying?

"Grandpa Sebastian is very sick, and we have to go stay with him from now on. We'll settle there, he wants everyone to be there with him." She explained with a sad smile, grandpa was a very sweet person to me and my sister. He's always provided us with care and we were going to be there for him until he gets better.

"Also we're leaving now so" she mumbled making my eyes widen. Why so soon? Why so sudden? This isn't normal, something else had happened and she was keeping it from me.

"What?!"

"Yeah, I'm sorry honey. The driver is already outside, the maids have packed your stuff" she said as the nurses walked in and helped me get on the chair, I just got here, got my leg casted and now I'm leaving to a different city. Since everything was already packed it means that they were planning on leaving before I even got hurt.

"What is going on that you're not telling me mom?" I asked but she just shrugged her shoulders and helped me get in the car, I saw my momma and my little sister already inside buckled up.

I stared at the trees as the car sped up the road, deep in the woods I could see a black shadow move at an insanely fast speed but in a blink of an eye it was gone. I was hallucinating again...

Everything was real, the kiss, my feelings, I was leaving everything behind, again...

I was leaving her behind, after feeling "something" for the first time...

Narrator's pov

Alex was afraid to confront her mate, she watched her leave the cabin without being able to follow or say something to her, about the kiss and how she was feeling.

After hours of thinking she finally realized she was going to regret not saying anything so she followed her mate's scent to the hospital. She ran through the hallways trying to find the right room, only to push the doors to an empty bed.

Her wolf was going crazy in her head, screaming that their mate was getting further and further.

She ran out to the hospital towards the forest and shifted to her black wolf. She dashed through the trees following her mate's scent until she saw a moving car, she stared at Nadine leaning her head on the window and whimpered in pain.

'mate' her wolf said in their head,

a body collided with her making her lose balance and fall losing track of the car. The grey wolf, that of her alpha, was growling at her to shift.

'shift!'

Alex shifted back to her human form crying hard while holding her heart, she felt it tear apart as her mate disappeared into distance. She felt arms wrap around her body as she cried her heart out in pain.

If only she had the courage to talk to her, if only she wasn't so cruel to her it would've been easier to win Nadine's heart.

But now it wasn't possible because she knew she wasn't coming back, her mother had informed her that The Martin's were going to leave and not come back to the town.

With one last whimper she fell on the person holding her and felt her eyes close in exhaustion, dreaming of Nadine and how she could've had a happy ending with her mate she never deserved....

Yes this is the end of this book, it is an open ending and since their will be a second book, there could be a happy ending for Alex and Nadine.

The second book will be from both Alex and Nadine's perspective, with more details.

I apologize for breaking your hearts once again, but I'll make it up to you all... I promise.

I love you!

Have a great day my dear friends...
