CLARISSA

"She can't be here... not safe... for her baby..." Muffled sounds reached my ears as I slowly regained consciousness. I forced my eyes open, blinking against the glow of the medical bay's overhead lights. The scent of antiseptic lingered in the air, a sharp contrast to the smell of cigarettes that had assaulted my nostrils earlier. I was lying on a bed with a white blanket draped over my body, and there was a dull ache in my bones.

Through the haze in my vision, I could see someone standing by my bedside with his back to me. He was speaking to a middle-aged woman who was wearing a medical coat.

His companion walked away and left the room. Without glancing my way, he started to leave. But then, I reached out to grab the sleeve of his pale yellow shirt. His head whipped around, his eyes widening when they met mine.

"You're awake. That's a relief," he spoke softly, lowering himself onto the chair by the bedside.

"Thank you for...earlier," I croaked.

He heaved a sigh,

    JAXON I shouldn't have done it. In my desperation to silence her, I'd panicked. And in that split second, I'd let my control slip. "What the hell was that?" she snapped, her voice sharp with disbelief. I opened my mouth, but nothing came out. Damn it. I should've had a better excuse ready. Something logical. Something that wouldn't make me look like the reckless, selfish bastard I felt like. Her lips had been softer than I expected, her breath warm and unsteady against mine. But the second I'd pulled away, reality had crashed down on me like a cold bucket of ice water. Against my better judgement, my desire had clouded my senses. Even now, I could still feel the ghost of her lips on mine. This wasn't right. Although she was my mate, she was still my student, and we were still within the walls of the academy. "Really? You're just going to toy with me like that?" she demanded, stepping back as though I physically repulsed her. "You were yelling." The words spilled from

    CLARISSA Constant whispers and murmurs reached my ears each time I stepped out into the midst of the other students. They all looked at me like I was weird, like I was a ticking time tomb waiting to explode. A new nickname had started to circulate. Queen of Ruin. Quickening my pace, I scoffed. How fitting. I needed somewhere quiet. Getting myself together was important at the moment. So, I headed into the empty art room, at least that's what I thought. When I stepped into the room, I was instantly greeted by a strong, overwhelming aura. Someone else was in the room. But where—My eyes darted to the corner of the room where a large table was located. Tense, I listened closely. Only then did I hear it. The erratic heartbeat of a person. Frowning, I stepped closer, shifting a large canvas out of the way. My heart lurched.There, curled under the table, was a boy.His light brown eyes were wide and unfocused, his body trembling as he rocked back and forth. A broken pair of sq

    CLARISSA I woke up sore the next morning, my body aching as if I had been in a fight. To my disappointment, the book I'd grabbed hadn't helped with anything. There was no information about the prophecy. I should've searched for a different book, but I'd been too uneasy about the feeling that someone had been watching me.A sharp twist in my stomach made me sit up. My throat burned as nausea clawed its way up, and I stumbled out of bed, barely making it to the bathroom before my body betrayed me.I gripped the cold porcelain, my fingers trembling as I emptied the contents of my stomach."Are you okay, Rissy?!" My roommates yelled, and all I could do was heave in response.The door to the bathroom opened, and Ruby stepped in to rub my back."You really don't look so good, Rissa. Maybe you should go to the medical bay," she said, and I groaned in annoyance.I hate being pregnant, I groaned internally."I'll be fine," I whispered, and she shook her head in concern, a worried look on

    JAXON My feet came to an abrupt halt, my brows creasing up into a frown when I felt my mate's growing unease. Cursing under my breath, I retraced my footsteps, and sure enough, she was running after someone. I was going to ask her to quit running, but somehow, she soon came to a grinding halt. I listened closely to her conversation with the other first-year student, tense.Judging from how steady the first year’s heart was, it was clear that she wasn’t lying about anything. Just as I started to turn away, I heard Diana’s voice.“You’ve got to be kidding me,” I mumbled.There was no doubt that her confrontation was only going to end with violence.Either way, I needed to stop her.So I stepped out of my hiding place and cleared my throat, drawing their attention to me.“Don’t you have classes to attend?” I asked, and Diana scoffed before turning away with her minions.Clarissa let out a sigh of relief, her gratitude written all over her face. In that moment, something was unloc

    CLARISSA Everyone was on edge. The burnt corpse had been identified as a first-year, bottom-tier student. No one knew who had done it, but the fear was spreading like wildfire.I couldn't shake off the look on my mate’s face when he'd made eye contact with me on the scene. He had asked me to meet up with him later at night. I'd sneaked out of my dorm while my roommates were asleep. I was nervous because it felt like the danger was finally unfolding.A hand touched my shoulder, and I turned around with a start, grabbing the person's shoulder and pinning them against the wall, their face pressed to the concrete."It's me! Ruby!" my stalker squeaked as I yanked at her arm.My eyes widened, and I released her right away. Groaning, she turned around to look at me while rubbing at her shoulder."You startled me!" I whispered harshly, scanning the hallway to make sure no one had seen us."I'm sorry. I was just wondering where you were going," she said.I tensed, unsure of what she t

    CLARISSA I paced back and forth in my room, frustrated. I still didn't know what the scroll had contained. Ruby—no—Gwen had suddenly disappeared into thin air, and I couldn't find her. Professor Hale had gone in search of Stefan, but he'd returned to me a while later, telling me that Stefan had sneaked out of the academy. My head was aching. I was so close to losing my mind. Even though my mate had assured me that he would figure everything out, I was restless."Come on, Clarissa. Go to bed. I'm trying to sleep here," May, one of my roommates, groaned, peering at me through bloodshot, half-closed eyes.Muttering an apology, I moved over to my bed and lay down on it, staring at the ceiling with a heavy heart.Sleep eventually whisked me away. But then the nightmares came....Three days passed, and the break was over. Stefan and Gwen were still missing, and my nights were constantly tormented by nightmares.

    JAXON I was seething. Clarissa's message had reached me crystal clear, and I was barely restraining my wolf, who was desperate to get to our mate. Even now, my body rebelled against me—weak, burning up, my muscles trembling from the aftershocks of the void's pull. I was still vulnerable from slipping in and out of existence, but none of that mattered.She was pregnant. Yet she was out there playing hero.Damnit, did she really not care about her own life?The reserve was off-limits for a reason, and I sure as hell hoped she wouldn't have to find out why. I doubled over at the gate of the reserve, panting hard as my exhaustion made itself known. I really wasn't supposed to be moving about in my state, but this was an emergency. My head pounded, a dull ache radiating behind my eyes, but I shoved past the pain.I needed to pull myself together. Only a couple of minutes earlier, Clarissa had almost walked in on me in my most vulnerable state, slipping into the void.If she'd walked

    CLARISSA 'Mate!' Snow, my wolf, echoed in my head as a sweet scent flooded my nostrils. Tears of gratitude welled up in my eyes, and my heart started to pound a lot faster as I quickened my pace and followed the smell of my mate. It had to be Kieran. I was his chosen mate, and tonight, our mating ceremony was about to take place. My excitement went up a notch, and I broke into a sprint, hiking up my ceremonial red dress. All of a sudden, pain slammed into me so hard, I doubled over. With my eyes watering, I dropped to my knees. Whimpers escaped my lips as the pain continued to build, searing through me like a red-hot knife.I was confused and disoriented. I couldn't understand what was happening to me. I parted my lips to call out for my fiancé, but in an instant, I heard the sounds of his moans in my head.'Fuck, MIA. You feel so good,' I heard him say and my confusion swelled within me.Mia?My bully?That couldn’t be right. My mind had to be playing tricks on me. Maybe I mi

    A While Ago,CLARISSA "Hello there, Stray!" The mocking voice cut through the air, pulling me out of my thoughts. I froze, my grip tightening on my backpack.A few feet away stood a group of students dressed in expensive-looking designer clothes. From where I stood, I could tell that they were nothing but trouble. They reeked of arrogance and entitlement. It was too early to get into trouble, especially since it was still the first day of school. I was already upset because of my mate's rejection.Could my day get any worse?Clenching my fists, I kept my head down and veered in the opposite direction. Maybe if I ignored them, they'd leave me alone.In the blink of an eye, they were standing in front of me. They sneered at me, eyeing me from top to bottom like I was nothing but vermin."Running already? That's not nice. We just wanted to get to know you," one of the guys said, a mischievous smirk tugging at his lips."Look, I don't know you, and I certainly don't want to. I
