Chapter 17
Blair’s POV
I’d been living on this island for a few months now.
Aside from the occasional supply boat that docked with fresh goods, it was completely cut off from
the rest of the world.
My only companions were the salty sea breeze and the seabirds that sometimes skimmed past my
window.
Was it lonely? Maybe, in the beginning. But as time dragged on, I’d gotten used to it. Life alone had turned out to be strangely peaceful-maybe even comforting in its own quiet way.
Back when I first arrived, I used to lie awake at night, haunted by everything that had happened between the two packs. My chest would ache in the dark, the pain always creeping in just before
sleep.
But as time went on, those memories sank deep-like stones tossed into the ocean, vanishing
beneath the waves.
I no longer wanted to look back.
Everything tied to the packs… to Christian… felt like a dream from a past life, so far gone even the
colors of it had started to fade.
This morning, I checked the hurricane alert on my phone like I always did-just routine.
I made sure the windows and doors were secure, then curled up indoors and waited for the storm to
pass.
A few hours later, to my surprise, the sun broke through the clouds. A rare clear day.
I stood in front of my cabin, gazing out at the deep, endless blue of the sea. Something inside me stirred-a sudden urge to take a walk.
This ocean was a kind of blue I’d never seen before. Vast. Pure. As if it stretched all the way to the
edge of the world.
Sometimes, I thought… maybe living like this, away from everything, wasn’t such a bad thing after
all.

i strolled slowly down the beach, the sea breeze brushing against my face. Then, in the distance, something caught my eye-a faint silhouette.
The scent on him was unfamiliar, which immediately put me on guard. But the way he lay there,
barely breathing, made me walk closer without thinking.
I approached-It was a man, curled up on the sand, completely soaked. The area beneath him was
stained red with blood.
Had the storm washed him ashore last night?
i knelt down, about to check his pulse, when he stirred. A weak voice escaped his lips.
“Help… me…”
I hesitated for a second. Then, against better judgment, I brought him back to my home.
He slept deeply. I cleaned his wounds and gave him some medicine. When he finally opened his eyes again, it wasn’t the ocean or a hospital ceiling he saw-it was the roof of my home.
He tried to sit up, but I quickly held him down. “Don’t move. Your injuries aren’t healed yet. If those wounds split open again, I’m not saving your ass a second time.”
He stared at me, surprised. My voice wasn’t exactly warm, but my hands had been gentle.
I handed him the medicine. “Here. Take it.”
“What is it?” he asked, eyeing the pills warily.
I frowned slightly. “You’ve got a fever and the wounds are infected. Take it or don’t-up to you.”
He didn’t argue, just swallowed them all.
“Thanks for saving me,” he said. “I’m Cassian.”
I took his empty cup. “Can you contact your family? Have someone come pick you up?”
He shook his head and explained that he’d come to visit a nearby pack on a covert mission, but they
were ambushed. His warriors were dead, even his beta all of them.
Injured and thrown into the sea, he’d only survived because last night’s storm washed him ashore
here.
The mission was highly classified, known to very few, which made him suspect it was an inside job.

When he said this, his tone was so cold and detached it sent a chill down my spine.
“No one knows I’m here. Can I stay… just for a while? Until I recover.”
I looked at him, already knowing my answer. ‘No’ rose to my lips… but in the end, I swallowed it.
“Fine. But once you’re healed, you leave. I don’t keep people here.”
One afternoon, I was sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window, painting.
I painted the sea.
Outside, the sky was clear, a perfect blue stretching into the horizon. But on my canvas… it was all shadows and chaos. I didn’t know why. I thought I’d let go of all the pain, buried it deep, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t paint the sunlight.
Cassian walked over and stood behind me, silent for a few moments.
Then he asked, “Are you… not happy?”
I didn’t answer. Just stared at the painting, my brush frozen midair.
Then suddenly, he picked up the brush and added a few strokes in the center of the canvas.
Amid all the darkness-he added a faint streak of light.
I blinked, stunned. Turned to look at him–and met his deep, steady gaze.
“Sorry, I shouldn’t have touched your painting. But… I thought maybe this looked better. What do you think?”
I stayed quiet for a long time. Then finally, I set my brush down. “No… it’s good. Better than mine.”
He smiled. It was only then that I realized-he hadn’t talked much these past few days. But he’d
always treated me with this quiet, respectful gentleness.
“The supply boat’s coming tomorrow,” I said, getting up. “And your wounds are mostly healed
now. You should leave then.”
But he stepped in front of me.
“And what about you? Aren’t you leaving?”
I paused.

“This is my home now,” I said quietly. “Where else would I go?” –
I’d been hurt too deeply. This island… was the only place I could hide.
The only place where no one would ever find me.
He looked at me, and something shifted in his eyes.
“Come with me,” he said. “Call it repaying a debt if you want. Let me take you out of here-even just for a little while.”

Blair’s POV
Ever since Cassian came into my life, everything started to change.
Before, I always felt like something inside me had given way-an emptiness I could never escape. But after he showed up, we’d talk from time to time. Nothing deep, nothing dramatic.
Sometimes we didn’t talk at all. He’d just sit next to me in silence or stand nearby, like he was
quietly keeping me company.
We’d shift sometimes, running through the woods in our wolf forms.
He was the first person who ever said my wolf looked beautiful.
One day, I found myself absentmindedly brushing a hand over my chest, only to realize that hollow aching feeling was gone-and I hadn’t even noticed when it slipping away.
Even my wolf had stopped grieving.
That’s when it hit me-my loneliness all this time had come from being alone for far too long.
We’re pack creatures by nature. Even if you crave distance from the madness of the world, solitude creeps in slowly, settling into your bones before you even notice.
I’d planned to spend the rest of my life hidden away on that remote little island. No one around. No
one to hurt me.
But now… I’ve changed my mind.
It’s been months-those people must’ve forgotten me by now. I “died” once already-there’s no need to keep punishing myself just to stay out of sight.
So, when Cassian brought it up again-leaving-I didn’t say no.
“I’m heading out tomorrow too,” I told him calmly. “But you don’t have to show me around or keep me company. We were just strangers crossing paths. Once we leave this place, let’s keep it that
way.”
I paused, looking straight into his serious eyes. “As for saving your life… if you really want to repay me, give me a new identity.”
A new name. A clean slate. A brand new start.
