Alessia’s POV
I wake up feeling hot all over.
My forehead is warm when I ce the back of my palm on it. What’s happening? Could I be falling
sick? Weren’t werewolves immune to illness?
With a pained groan, I drag myself out of bed and into the bathroom to freshen up. I can’t afford to
miss a day of training when Caden is being an a s s. He’ll probably take it as an opportunity to end
my training
The shower cools me down and I spend a longer time in it than I normally would. It’s still fairly early
in the morning when I head downstairs. Early enough that the living area is void of any soul.
This was the time I usually got up to head to the training grounds. It’s the time that Caden set for me
to have extra training lessons before others came by.
Still feeling a slight headache and fever, I change my direction from the front door to the kitchen,
hoping to find something to alleviate this illness. I halt in my step as I see a figure standing in front
of the coffee maker.
Jake.” I call out, looking at his familiar brte hair. I didn’t expect him to be back so soon.
He turns around, a smile fixed on his face. “Alessi-” The smile on his face disappears as his eyes
widen and his nostrils re. His eyes darken, nearly turning ck. “Alessia, go away. Leave right
now.” He rounds the kitchen Ind, not turning his back to me.
My brows furrow in confusion and I move closer to him. “What’s wrong? Is everything ok?” I ask,
starting to get a little worried at this weird behavior.
A sharp pain has me clenching my head, heaving and gasping at the immense pain. What in the
hell is happening to me? Am I dying?
“Alessia, you’re in heat,” he rushes out. “You need to go back to your room. I can’t be around you
right now.

Please, go away,” he begs desperately, eyeing my positi
only way out of here.
I hear him but at the same time, my focus is on the throbbing in my head.
“Alessia,” he groans, his eyes darkening. Then he groans again and walks purposely towards me.
He grips me by the forearm and starts pulling me towards the stairs.
Not being able to fight him, I follow willingly, feeling like my head might just explode.
I’m in heat. I know what that means. I need Caden to mark or mate with me, unless I’m going to be
in unimaginable pain for a while.
Jake is still dragging me and cursing harshly under his breath. Something about him not being cut

this.
I ignore him, too focused on my pain. What am I going to do? I need Caden but I know that there’s
no way in hell that he’s going to think of even touching me. He hates me. Me being in unimaginable
pain and despair isn’t going to change that.
Just as we reach the front of my door, my knees buckle and I fall down, grasping at the floor with my
nails as blinding pain shes behind my eyelids. Goddd, I don’t think I can survive this pain. There
has to be something I can do. At this point, I’m willing to do anything to get rid of this pain.
“Mate,” Zuri whines. “We need mate.
We can’t have him. I yell inwardly, not having the strength required to deal with a whining wolf.
Jake is looking down at me worriedly, his eyes going over my hunched form on the ground. “You
need your mate’s help.
F u c k that. If I can’t get what I need from Caden then I’ll just get it from somewhere else.
I force myself onto my feet and move closer to Jake who tentatively steps back, looking ready to
bolt at any second.
Jake, please help me.” I don’t exactly know what I’m begging for but I just know that I’ll be able to
get it from him. “It hurts so much,” I beg, whining as another sharp pain hits me, nearly bringing me
back to my
knees.
Jake’s eyes arepletely ck now and his tongue slides out, running across his lips as he
inches closer
to me.
I sigh, knowing I’m going to get the help I need. His fingertips graze my face as he cups my cheek
and-
A secondter, Jake is on the floor and a raging Caden is on him, plummeting him to the ground.
“How dare youy hands on my mate?!” Caden growls. No, that’s not Caden. It’s Xavier.

gasp, my head reeling from the sudden change but thankfully, I have the brain to react quick
enough. “Caden,” I call out, rushing to them. “Stop it. You’re going to kill him,” I pull on his arm,
trying and failing to get him off Jake’s unmoving form. Is he dead?
My hands slip away from Caden’s arm as I curl into a ball on the floor, my eyes stinging as another
wave of pain hits me.
Suddenly, I feel myself being lifted from the floor and held by a warm body. I sigh, burying my face
into at muscr neck and breathing in their scent. They smell so f u c k i n g good. Will they taste
this good too?
Without thinking, my tongue slides out and I run it up the muscr neck, feeling the pulse beating
widely. Hmm, they don’t taste as good as I would expect but that’s probably due to the fact that I’m
licking a skin.
I can’t seem to make myself stop though. I fist my hands into the front of their shirt and bury my face
