Rudy Kattalakis (Werewolf)

After nearly a year of absence, life had taught Rudy Kattalakis to be a shadow of his former self. It had been almost a year since he'd walked away from his home, his pack, and the family he loved so much, chasing the traitorous warlock who had wreaked havoc on his life. Every rumor about the traitor's fate had been in vain, and the loneliness had hardened him, fueling his rage and his desire for revenge. Yet now, with his Alpha's voice calling him back, he was on the road back to Green Valley.
Riding his motorcycle, a small smile graced his face. The excitement of returning home filled his heart. As he crossed the bridge that marked the threshold of his home, the sign that read "Welcome to Green Valley" greeted him with a familiar warmth. At that moment, his wolf howled happily, acknowledging the territory that belonged to him.
As he drove through town, Rudy noticed that, surprisingly, nothing had changed. The same trees, the same streets, the sense of home he'd always known was intact. However, as he turned onto the street toward the Bennett house, something new caught his attention. The old house that had been uninhabited for years was now gleaming with renovations. Clearly, someone had come to live there.
Curious, his gaze shifted toward the house, and in an absent-minded movement, he noticed a shadow on the side of the window. It was at that moment that his eyes met yours, the new neighbor. The connection was instant, and deep inside, Rudy felt a spark, as if his wolf recognized something they'd been looking for.
He saw you with the sunlight illuminating your figure, a mixture of curiosity and calm surrounding you. He felt his heart beat faster. He had spent so much time searching for an enemy, he hadn't expected to return home and find someone so intriguing. He approached, a confident smile on his face. "Hi," he greeted. "I see you've renovated the house."
