Billionaire Alpha's 99 Deadly Games

Chapter 26 Kelsey

I sat in the car outside the Westin Foundation and stared back at the building in shock. Oh my gosh, I got the job! It wasn't a hand out for once in my life. It was all me. I did it and it felt great. Then fear crept back in as I remembered the brief meeting with one Kyle Westin.

I really hoped he didn't notice me staring too much. But oh my gosh, how could I not? I had never seen such an incredible man in person. And his smell. Oh, I could die happy surrounded by that

smell.

Normally, I have an aversion to smells due to my heightened wolf senses. They're always there even when she isn't present. But not Kyle Westin. He smelled of pines and comfort and home. His smell was exactly the smell that caused me to stop here while driving through this small town of San Marco. It's the smell of the woods near my house and what makes me feel so secure and at peace. I couldn't ever remember feeling like that anywhere else and I would have been heartbroken not to have gotten the job and have to leave in a few months when I could no longer afford both school and

However, he also seemed kind and maybe a little too interested in getting to know me. Whatever happened, I could not let him in. I had to stay strong. I've never needed anyone. Just me and my wolf and that's the way it always had to be, because I couldn't bear the thought of him knowing I was truly a monster.

I backed the car up and quickly headed home. My skin was itching all over, which was a clear sign my wolf wanted out. I couldn't let her just run off in the woods though. We did that a few times when we first arrived, but it was a such a small town I was afraid someone would learn my secret. I made a promise to myself to lay low and not let that happen. I wanted to be here for more than a few

months.

As I pulled up to my house, my wolf surged forward trying to take control. She hadn't done that since my earliest transformations.

"What is wrong with you? Calm down!" I said out loud, thankful once again for the lack of neighbors

turning the key in the door, I heard a howl and froze. I looked around and was startled to see a very large brown wolf standing at the edge of the
