Cole's POV

Flashback to the day of the incident

The borders between the New Dawn pack and silver crest pack at 12:30 am.

I was driving towards my home in silver crest very late at night. I was feeling very tired after working at my father's office all day. Father was out of our pack on a very important business trip which was why I was in charge for the main time. I had a very hectic day and all I wanted to do was to go home and have a much-needed rest. It was really dark and the street lights were not working. I could only see clearly with the help of my headlights and enhanced werewolf vision.

I looked down as soon as my phone suddenly rang. I sighed when I noticed the call was from Claudia, my ex-high school girlfriend. We had broken up about a month ago but she still kept on calling me. I knew she never really liked me. She was in love with my money, not me. I figured we were both just wasting each other's time which was why I broke up with her. I picked up after she continued calling persistently.

"Baby, where have you been? I've been calling you forever. Are you ignoring me?" she asked.

"What do you want Claudia?" I inquired flatly.

"What do you mean by that? I called to check up on you because I still care about you. Don't you care about me anymore?" she asked. I rubbed my eyes tiredly. I was having a headache but she was adding to it by stressing me out. She was trying to make us come back together.

"Don't be clingy Claudia. I'm really tired and I'm not in the mood for all this," I replied. She scoffed.

"It's true what all your ex-girlfriends say, you are a real jerk," she said furiously.

"Glad you realized that. Have a nice life Claudia," I responded.

"No, baby, please wait...," she pleaded but I hung up on her. My phone fell from my hands and I sighed bending down to pick it up. After picking it up, I stood up but my eyes widened when my eyes met with someone laying on the floor. I screeched to a halt. I quickly got out of my car, glanced around, and noticed an accident had taken place. It looked really bloody. Cars crashed together, smoke was in the air and I could see bodies, burnt dead bodies.

I turned around to leave but a whimper stopped me in my tracks. I walked towards the sound. My gaze met with a young girl about my age, she was in her school uniform.

"Help," she muttered weakly before she slumped and her eyes closed. I could not see her face because she was covered up in blood. I was in shock but I quickly picked her up and headed to silver crest hospital. I called my father and informed him about everything. He told me to take care of her and that he would be back shortly.

The young schoolgirl was unconscious for about two weeks after her surgery. I took that time to replace out everything I could about her. I was shocked at my replaceings, at such a young age, she had already gone through so much plus the doctor informed me she was pregnant. I really pitied her and I wanted to help her as much as I could.

When she finally woke up from her coma after two weeks, I received a call from the doctor in charge of her treatment. I rushed to the hospital immediately. I walked into her room and my breath hitched when my gaze met with hers. She was stunning even though, she was in a hospital gown and had multiple stitches on her body. I was informed that she narrowly escaped death. She got really lucky. I could finally see her face clearly and her beautiful grey orbs.

"Mr Cole," the doctor called out snapping me from my thoughts. I was so engrossed with her that I never realized the doctor was present. Emma Garcia. That was her name. She stared at me curiously. "Is this him?" she asked the doctor.

"Him? Who?" I inquired.

"Are you the father of my child?" she asked seriously. I almost choked on air at her question.

"W..what? I'm not," I hurriedly replied.

"Oh," she whispered sadly.

"Is something wrong?" I asked. Why was she asking me if I was the father of her child? She should know better than anybody.

"I believe the young miss here has amnesia. She can't remember anything including her name," the doctor informed me.

"How is this even possible?" I inquired in surprise.

"She encountered a very serious accident and I believe it affected her brain. We performed a very complicated surgery on her. It's a miracle she survived," he replied.

"Is there any solution? Is there something we can do? Just tell me, you don't have to worry about the cost," I said.

"This is not about money Mr. Cole, I'm not sure if her situation is temporary or permanent yet all we can do is hope and wait for a miracle happens again," he responded. I nodded and thanked him and he left. I walked back to Emma's bed.

"If you are not the father of my child then who are you and what are you doing here?" she asked innocently.

"I brought you to the hospital," I replied.

"Really? But why? Did you know me before?" she asked. I shook my head negatively and took a seat on the chair in front of her.

"I didn't. I don't need to know a person from birth to do the right thing. I wasn't brought up that way," I answered.

"Thank you for saving my life. I can tell you are a very nice person," she replied.

"You are welcome....," I trailed. I did not know why it was so hard for me to say her name. Maybe because she had gone through a lot and she deserved happiness? Everyone deserved happiness no matter who they were. Telling her about her past meant she might remember her mate who was already married to someone I found out hated her to the core. The truth could break her and I did not want that. Why? I had no idea.

"Just call me Ximena, I could tell you were struggling because you didn't know what to call me," she said. I narrowed my eyes.

"Ximena? Why and how did you come up with that name?" I asked.

She shrugged, "I was watching a movie and the female lead had that name. It sounds nice and I like it. You can call me that till I remember what my name really is," she replied. I laughed out loud. She said with such a straight face that I could not help but laugh. "Okay, I like it. Sounds good," I responded.

"I know right," she said. We talked about silly things and I laughed a lot. I could not remember when last I had such a good laugh. We immediately got acquainted and it felt like I had known her all my life. She was so easy to talk to. I went back home after the visiting hours were over and met my Father back from his trip. We exchanged pleasantries and I briefed him about everything that was going on.

"Did you replace out anything about that girl?" he inquired.

"I found out she's an orphan and has no one to support her," I replied leaving the rest of the story out.

"That is so sad," he responded. I nodded in response.

"Father, how about we leave the country for our studies together? She's about my age so I think she has finished high school," I said.

"I have no problem with that but does she want to leave? Everything lies in her hands," he replied.

I asked Ximena about it and she agreed, we both left the country shortly after that. I had never helped a stranger like that ever in my life. But, I felt like I had known Ximena all my life which was why I did what I did. I took care of her throughout her pregnancy. Father also occasionally came to visit. He loved Ximena dearly like she was his own daughter. I was doing a degree in business while she had to wait till she gave birth before she could pursue the career she always wanted as a gynecologist.

As time went by, I fell deeply and helplessly in love with her. I also loved her kids dearly. I even proposed but I ended up getting rejected and friend-zoned. I was devastated by her rejection which made me surprised because I never thought I could ever fall so hard for someone. It fueled my determination because I knew she was a rare gem who wasn't just all about money. I never told her anything about her past even though she asked me numerous times. I did it because I didn't want her to get hurt. Even after her rejection, I could not bring myself to forget about her. So, I stood on the sidelines and loved her discreetly in hopes that one day, my feelings would be reciprocated.
