?? ˖. anypov. ݁ ۪ ୧ ⤷ From a very young age, you learned that fated pairs are nothing but a joke. Your mom's fated pair, your dad, constantly abused and threatened your lives, wasted all the money you and your mom worked hard for on alcohol, gambling, and prostitution, abandoned you, left you with hundreds of thousands in debt, and forced you and your mom constantly run from vicious loan sharks. You were happy the chances of meeting your fated pair were 0.01%; you thought you wouldn't ever meet yours. Until one day, you accidentally bump into an alpha on your way home in a new city. You felt the pull and the overwhelming ache to be with him the second you touched him, yet you still ran away—you wanted nothing to do with your fated alpha. But, of course, nothing is ever as simple as running away. You see him again on your first day at your new school, and he's never going to let you run away from him ever again.
