around. I skimmed through the first entries from when we were kids. Thankfully, she didn’t write in it every day or I’d never get through them all. She only wrote when she felt the need to let out her feelings.

Graduation Day! I’m so glad to be done with high school, but now comes the hard part. I have no clue what I want to do in life. Tyla wants to be a veterinarian and I know she’d be great at it, but what am I good at? I love plants and rare gems. Maybe I should become a teacher and share my knowledge with young minds. All of the colleges I applied to have accepted me, but I haven’t told anyone yet, especially Tyla. She wants to go away to college, and her parents can’t afford to send her. I can’t leave her behind. Maybe once she mates with Finn I’ll go off on my own. Why not, right? Hopefully I’ll meet a rugged wolf to sweep me off of my feet.
My heart hurt and I shut the journal, as Sebastian pulled us into the parking lot of a local mom and pop restaurant.
“Everything okay?” he asked.
Shaking my head, I glanced down at the journal. “Amelie lied to me.”
“About what?”
I shrugged. “Nothing major. When we graduated high school, she knew my parents couldn’t afford to send me to college, so she lied about not being accepted anywhere and stayed home. I can’t believe she did that.”
“That was her choice, Tyla.”
“I know, but I didn’t want her to put her life on hold because of me. Maybe our pack splitting up was good for her. She ended up going to college and getting a teaching degree.”
“Why exactly did your pack split up?”
My stomach growled and I clutched it. “Do you mind if we talk about this later? I’m starving.”
Pursing his lips, I knew he wasn’t finished with me, but I wasn’t ready to talk about it. That time would come soon enough.
I ate more than I’d ever eaten in my entire life and even brought back extra food. With everything going on, there was no telling when I’d get the chance to eat again. Sebastian stayed close and patrolled around the house sporadically as I read through the journal. His presence was a much needed comfort.
Skimming through the journal, I went through almost every entry for the past thirty years, looking for names I didn’t recognize. Even during our time of separation, it was nice knowing she’d missed me as much as I’d missed her. At one point, I’d tried to get her to move to Wyoming, but she loved it in North Carolina. Now I could see why.

It was a good day today. I think I finally met the rugged wolf I’ve been waiting for. Jaret Bleddyn. He’s just like me, a rogue. Don’t get me wrong, the local pack has some pretty decent looking wolves, but this guy takes the cake. I met him out in the woods when I went searching for a plant to use in my next classroom demonstration. I have plans to see Jaret this weekend. I can’t wait.

Tonight was my first date with Jaret. My parents weren’t exactly thrilled about me going out with a lone wolf, but he’s absolutely perfect. He drove us to Asheville and we went to the Biltmore House. It’s strange, but every time he looks at me, I get this weak feeling in my knees. In fact, I’m so sure he’s my mate, I gave in and slept with him. It was the most amazing night of my life. There was no way I could resist him.
“Tyla?” Sebastian called.
I waved my hand in the air. “Over here.” Sitting up, I made room for him on the couch.
He sat beside me, dressed in only a pair of dress pants with the button undone. I was starting to think he didn’t own a pair of jeans. “Any wolves out there?” I asked.
“Not that I can tell.” My gaze drifted to the opening in his pants again and my pulse raced. A small smirk splayed across his lips. He knew I wanted him, and with each passing day, it was getting harder and harder to fight against my need. He tapped the journal, grabbing my attention. “Find
