Hunter Sparrow

I’ve been really stressed out ever since I saw that little kid with Reyna. Who could he be? Why was he saying she’s his mommy?

“Babe! I’ll go get ready for dinner,” Tara’s high– pitched voice snapped me back to reality. I looked in her direction and then shook my head in disappointment. I’ve been trying my best to get used to he for a second, and now it’s even worse.

But I have to make it look like I can handle it.

“Hunter!” Tara called out again, making me frown. I walked past her to get to my room before she could follow me there. If someone else were in her plac

I had figured out much earlier that I couldn’t be with her. My mind and wolf had never gotten over–Reyrla’s betrayal.

“Hunter!” Tara quickly entered my room, stopping me from closing the door.

“Are we going out?” she asked again, this time using a softer tone. I shouldn’t have made that call earlier. Just to let Reyna know I’ve moved on, I got myself into this trouble.

“No!” I replied, not allowing her to manipulate me into feeling sorry for her.

“Why not?” she asked, no longer pretending to be polite.

“Because I just got back from work, and after the stunt you pulled in the office, I’m really upset,” said, my voice filled with irritation, and I noticed her eyes getting teary.

“What’s going on here? Are you two arguing again?” Thankfully, my mom arrived just in time. I could count on her to defuse the situation.

“He’s not taking me to the dinner he promised after seeing his ex again,” to my surprise, Tara wasn’t giving up. I gave her a stern look and continued glar

“His ex? What is she saying?” The expression on my mom’s face made it clear that it would be devastating news for her if it was true.

“Hunter! What’s she saying?” Now that my mom had taken over, Tara stepped aside.

“See how he’s glaring at me,” she murmured, giving my mother’s elbow a nudge.

“Have you met her?” Mom didn’t even want to say her name. Reyna was like a banned name in our house. Even though years have gone by, my mom n

“She works at his office,” Tara quickly chimed in to inform my mom, whose eyes widened, and I glared.

I didn’t want to get involved in this gossip. Tara had acted like she understood when I explained things to her at the office, but now she was back to complaining at home

“There’s no way she can work in his office. You must be wrong. Reyna wasn’t that qualified,” Mom chuckled a bit after convincing herself, but Tara just ro

“Well, somehow she’s the top

copywriter now,” Tara gestured dramatically with her arms.

“Huh? Is it true? How did she become a copywriter? When she was kicked out, she was just a teenager. How could she have survived, let alone become

The last time Tara and I saw her at the mall, she was in a very bad condition. Tara came home dancing and told

I my mother how Reyna looked terrible and old, using her words to express how happy she was at Reyna’s downfall.

As for me, I couldn’t sleep for a week after that encounter. I couldn’t understand why she threw away everything for some flings. Why did she give up my

“But–,” Tara protested as my mom gently guided her out of my room. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Tell me everything,” I overheard my mom saying. I closed the door because I needed some time alone. The sight I witnessed today left me stunned.

WILE

‘How on earth did this happen? How did she end up with such a perfect life?‘ I complained to my wolf, who had been quiet since her return.

“I don’t know, but I do know that it still hurts just as much, even though we’re no longer mates. Her betrayal will always be etched in our memory, making

‘What about that child? What do you think happened? Who could that child be?‘ I asked Net, as my mind had completely shut down.

‘I don’t know. Maybe she got together with someone after she got kicked out of the pack and had the boy? It makes sense, you know. The kid looks just

‘That would explain how she’s doing so well now. Maybe that person helped her,‘ I grumbled while shaking my head in disapproval. It felt so unjust.

After toying with my emotions and cheating on me, she managed to land such a perfect life. The last time I saw her, she was a mess. Part of me felt sorr

‘Do you

think she’s still with that man?” I asked slyly, trying not to make it seem like I was jealous.

“Who knows. She seems really happy in her life,‘ Net was the one who suffered the most from it. The way she betrayed us was the worst time of my life.

‘It doesn’t matter if she’s with someone,‘ I muttered, but then my conversation with him was interrupted by ther arrival of my mother,

She knocked on the door and cleared her throat; I recognized it was her.

Taking a deep breath, I opened the door to find her sadly smiling at me.

“It’s not your fault that she’s back,” she began, putting her arm around my back to comfort me.

“Seeing her is not easy. She’s achieved so much,” I grumbled, clenching my jaw.

“She’s also moved on,” I scoffed, squeezing my eyes shut.

“Of course she did. She had moved on way before you rejected her. That’s why you should move on too,” Mom suddenly brought up my relationship with Tara, which confused me. Why was she talking ab clearly upset at the idea of ever loving anyone?

“Seel Maybe it was the Moon Goddess‘ way of telling you not to hold on to someone who was never even loyal to you. The one who cheated has moved

She did seem really happy in her life. The way she confronted me with that smug expression made it clear that she felt no guilt or remorse for her actions

“Tell Tara to get ready; I’ll take her out to dinner,” I whispered, and my mother smiled with relief.
