Chapter: Chapter TenAs we move into the great hall it is decorated with icy white and silver snowflakes and balloons with a couple of round glass tables and chairs that have white cushions on the seats. All the tables that are set with black silver leaf embossed plates, utensils, and napkins are all in place sittings on either side of the aisle that was created to lead to the stage and dance floor. It is like an elegant winter wonderland. Tea went all out. The band playing on the stage at the moment is a jazz band. From what I heard, there are two bands, one who plays jazz and another who plays classical dance songs.We walk in and everyone stops talking as it seems everyone is seated and watching us three walks down the aisle to the front of the stage. Once we get there the music stops and someone hands Tearis a microphone. Oh, lawd help us all. It is a palm to the face emoji moment for me because you never really know what will come out of that girl’s mouth. Everyone is on the edge of their seat as the

Chapter: Chapter NineTea knows about my birthday and of course now everyone knows, and it means I need a party that will be bigger than what I really wanted. Tearis has a big mouth when it comes to parties and her extroverted personality. She spoke to Edgar, the Dean's assistant, about using the great hall for my birthday party and of course he was beyond excited to help her. So, my party is in the great hall set for 5:00 pm tonight.I was not surprised when she jumped on top of me to wake me up. What she doesn’t know is I am not a morning person and am evil when woken up. I am all about my sleep. As I swung out from the annoying hyper morning person voice coming in too loud, tsked, “Now Embryson no violence today especially since today is your birthday and your party is tonight. So, get up and chop-chop. We have breakfast with Drew then the dress fitting which took me forever to get the perfect designer for you.”“Ugh, what time is it and must you be full of this much energy”, I grunt and roll over dumpi

Chapter: Chapter EightThe next two weeks seems to be the same patch of bloody guys from the MC in the clinic due to some war that has been going on between the wolves and vampires. From what Tea and Dew said the MC is in fact full of werewolves which makes the name make more sense. Once Doc received word from the great counsel that I am now aware of my status and the world of the night and the four realms he decided it was time to show me where the blood section in his office was and which ones was for transfusion and the other for the vampires to attain for repair in the fights. I get home to shower the blood off me that seems to cling to me since I helped Doc and Linc with the really wounded wolves. I have this hunger that I cannot explain and all I want is to climb Daxten and take him on a ride that would rock my world. I would be more tempted if I would see him. I have not seen him since I gave him a ride home after work a few weeks ago. I heard Lincoln tell Doc that he was on the pack grounds dealing

Chapter: Chapter SevenThe next few days are uneventful with classes and work. Lincoln was back the next night when I returned to work and I was grateful since the impromptu kiss I have stayed to myself. Tearis kept looking at me like I was about to explode or something. Hmm that reminds me that Dew next stopped by after I got off work that night, he was being all you have powers. I have to find him soon because that shit has been eating at me. I don’t understand anything anymore and he owes me some goddamn answers. Like why if he has been watching me all these years why have I just as of lately felt like someone was watching me and then he appears. The guy is adorable with his ash blonde hair and nerdy lean features. Dew is the type you go shopping with and tell him all your boy troubles too. He is definitely the gender fluid type. I hurry in the shower after I take enough time letting my mind wander and get dressed to go into work.By the time I get in the parking lot, Lincoln is standing next to my usual

Chapter: Chapter Six pull up to the same parking spot I have been since I started here and wait for the new guard to come get me. Lincoln texted me an hour before I was to leave for my shift to let me know that he would not be there, and his nephew would be there as a guard tonight and to wait for him in my car like usual. I look down at my phone from an incoming text from Tea and hear a tap at my window. I jump when I see Daxten from school. He has that protector look as he stands at attention with his hands in his pockets since I have my doors locked.“I’m Daxten Belmont, Linc's nephew, you're safe to open the door darling,” he says as a greeting with a smirk.Of course, he has to be Linc's nephew I think as I unlock my door and he moves his hand so fast and opens my door. I don’t understand why Linc opens my door and now Daxten is like I'm some princess or something. I laugh at that thought and step out of the car.“Hello”, I say as I begin walking toward the building with Dax walking behind me like a

Chapter: Chapter Five“I know”, I say, holding my hands up in defense. I didn't want to explain my life story now or ever. I have to live with her for 4 years so how would I not end up telling her my life story? I will tell you more tomorrow. I really need to get some sleep before I crash. “Promise? She asked, holding up her pinky.“Yes”, I said as I passed out under my covers to a peaceful sleep until my alarm woke me to say time to get up for work. It is like waking up no matter if light or dark outside make me not a “morning person” or as I should call it, “waking up person”. I grab my phone off the nightstand to shut up the alarm. I barely open my eyes and grunt as the lights from my phone fade into my sight. It is quiet which means Tearis is not in the room. The good thing about this room is that it is the only one that has only a bathroom and shower. Weird right? I get up and get a nice warm shower like I do every day before and after my shift at work. As I'm walking back into the room with my tow
