Chapter 14
Two years later, some random person sent me a friend request.[]
Since it’s work–related, I’m pretty chill about accepting new contacts.]
I shot them a quick “Hey there!“]
Radio silence.
Their profile pic was just a cute wolf pup, so I couldn’t tell if they were a she–wolf or he–wolf.[]
I was about to stalk their feed when they sent me an email.[]
I clicked it open.[]
We’re Mated! | Felix & Selene’s Bonding Ceremony Invitation] [
The cover shot was Selene with some Alpha I’d never seen before.[]
In the photo, she had this
VICE
glowing smile.
Just like back in Silver Academy when she crushed everyone at the track training and stood on that podium.]
I stared at that picture way too long.[]
Then I scrolled down to check out their whole love story.[
They’d met two years back, dated for eighteen months, then completed their mating bond.[]
In every single shot, Selene looked genuinely blissful.[]
You could tell it wasn’t some fake Instagram bullshit–this was the real thing.[]

The Alpha was gorgeous too, had that calm, solid energy about him. Looked like the type who’d always protect her.
I remembered us gossiping about what kind of mates we’d end up with.[]
I’d always figured Selene would fall for this exact type.[]

She was such a hurricane–she needed someone steady who could ground her. Someone who’d spoil her rotten and just smile while she caused chaos.
Back then, Selene had totally lost her mind.[]
“Why would you think I’d want that? Haha, no fucking way! That’s mate material, sure, but for dating I need someone who’ll set me on fire!”
“What do you mean, set you on fire?“]
“You know–dangerous, hot as hell, but not in some boring way. I’m talking about the bad boy Alpha type. Someone who can make me melt with just a look, who makes me want to sleep with him every five seconds…“[]
Chapter 14
I’d realized then that Zethar fit that description perfectly.[]
For a second, I felt this weird mix of confusion and nostalgia.[]
I backed out of the email and scrolled through Selene’s Instagram.
She’d obviously been killing it these past couple years.[]
Finally had a career she actually gave a damn about instead of just drifting.]
New pack, seemed to mesh really well with everyone.[]
んん
Her new mate was clearly obsessed with her–they’d traveled everywhere together, tons of gorgeous couple shots.[]
I closed out of her profile and sent two quick messages.
[Congrats on finding your mate. I won’t be there.] [
[Don’t contact me again.] [
I blocked and deleted Selene.
To be totally honest? On my bonding
the whole disaster.
Many day, part of me had really hoped she’d show up. That she’d be there with me through
Even after that brutal fight we’d had the night before.
But she wasn’t show up.[]
She’d broken our pack bond first, so I sure as hell wasn’t going to her mating ceremony.
Whatever happened to her from now on wasn’t my problem anymore.
