"Fishy kisses are better than
kisses," I say, the words coming out of nowhere, "and like that, two people together are better than marriage."
"What are you talking about?"
"Nothing really," I sigh, hunching over myself more to trap the warmth, "it's just..."
"Just?"
"...I'm tired of this world, being judged for something you can't control, molded by peoples opinion, it's sickening." I glance at him, gauging his expression, he didn't have any. A crazy idea enters my head. "Hey, let's run away together, from society," I breathe, pausing for a bit, "maybe it's cowardly, maybe it's foolish, but I don't want to be defined by people who don't know me," maybe the cold is getting to me, "run away with me."

Loopie didn't expect that the single shine of hope that finally shone came in the form of a silent and mysterious werewolf.
Nao didn't quite understand how his fate entangled with that of the trouble-magnet rascal. But with a bit of family feud and the need for something stable, this arrangement might very well work for the both of them.

First installment of the Invalid series.
"I Alpha Jason Huntsman of the Blue Moon Pack reject you Esmeray Woodsmith of the Blue Moon pack as my mate."
My knees feel weak and my whole body starts to tremble under this invisible force. My heart feels like shattered into a hundred pieces; my head starts throbbing like hit by a hundred-pound rock. Well, expected of the great Alpha of a jerk to reject the so-called weakling of the pack.
But I do not let the scene unfold the way this arrogant fool of an Alpha wishes. I lift my chin, straighten my back, a hint of a smirk playing on my lips, I say much more arrogantly " I Esmeray Woodsmith of Blue Moon Pack except the rejection of Alpha Jason Huntsman of Blue Moon pack."
===========
I wipe off the blood from my treasured dagger. And walk out of the Leader's Den, to face the people ready to accept me as their new Alpha. Well, not until recently was I rejected by my mate for being a right-hand man of a so-called Rogue leader. The one I just killed. And my new Beta calls out as I walk out of the Cabin's door. "We welcome our new leader the Rogue King."
And that is when I decide to show myself to the world. And who knew I would be mated to the strongest female wolf I have ever come across.
