ARIA***After the horrid and oddly erotic dream, I woke up and realized something shocking.My Chaos wolf was active! After so long, I could finally feel her beyond just 'existing' inside me.However, she was quite the snub, even more than my Rogue and Mystik wolves."Come on, Chaos. Say something." I groaned dramatically, pleading with the unruly wolf to talk all to no avail.Realizing that getting her to speak would get me nowhere, I sighed before glancing at the time.Shit, it was almost nine PM! That was the time Sylvain and I agreed to meet. In a panic, I got up and rushed to my wardrobe to get something to wear. I'd picked out a lot of clothes before I slept off, but my Nightshade wolf who seemed the most enthusiastic about this 'date' with Sylvain, disapproved of all of them.However, my eyes caught an outfit just then. It was a black jeans trouser that looked like it was going to be really tight, as well as a long-sleeved shirt with a round neckline.I picked out the clothe
"Oh my gosh, be so for real right now!” Elizabeth squealed the next morning in school when I told her everything that happened the previous night with Sylvain. I panicked, bumping her with my shoulder after looking around. We were in the hallway, making our way to class, and to my dismay, the hallway was packed with students. "Could you keep it down?" I whispered to her, sighing with frustration. "Yes, everything I told you happened. Why would I be lying?" I rolled my eyes. She nodded, trying to compose herself even though her eyes were shining with excitement. She held my shoulder, forcing me to glance at her. "Girl, I'm so proud of you. You made the first move and actually kissed him. If someone had told me you'd do that when I first met you, I would've laughed at them." She giggled like an over-stimulated teen at the end. Probably because she was one... Meanwhile, as soon as she said that, my face heated up with embarrassment. Oh, I'd forgotten to tell her that I tried to do
I yanked my hand out of Elizabeth's grip, stunning her. But I ignored that and turned my gaze to Cassandra."What did you just say?" I asked, my anger reaching a new peak.The girl scoffed, eyeing me with mock sympathy. "I only told the truth. I mean, your relationship with Orion has always been doomed to fail, no offense." She said with that annoying high-pitched voice of hers.No offense? She said something like that and added 'no offense’?My jaw clenched before I spat. "And you call what you have with him a 'relationship'? Girl, wake up, he's just using you as a sex doll for his selfish desires. And you being the simp you are, shamelessly cling to him like a leech even after you knew he was my boyfriend."Our altercation had already begun attracting the attention of nearby students. A collective gasp was released from most of them, almost making me back down. But I resisted that urge. There was something else, something chaotic burning inside me and telling me to bite off this bi
When Orion finally made his way through the crowd and got to the scene, he only stood to watch me for a few seconds before going to Cassandra's side and helping her up.She groaned, pointing a finger at me with a maniacal glare. "That little bitch assaulted me! We should have her arrested." She snarled.Sylvain held me close, preventing me from making a move. However, Elizabeth stepped forward just then, pointing her finger at Cassandra."You assaulted her first and everyone here can be a witness to that. What Aria did was just self-defense." She said with a shrug, turning her gaze to me and giving me a wink.A smile curled up my lips. I could always trust her to be at my side.Meanwhile, Cassandra seemed to have become speechless due to Elizabeth's words. She stuttered, her gaze fleeting from Sylvain and me to Orion repeatedly."Baby… baby, do something." She drawled, wrapping her hands around his arms. Seeing that made my blood boil, and my Alpha wolf growled as I glared at Orion.
The Deans were dismissed by the Chancellor, leaving the rest of us in her office."So, who instigated this little fight of yours?" She asked, her sharp gaze scanning through all our faces. It was amazing how a human could instill so much dominance.Suddenly, Elizabeth stepped forward. "Aunt L–" However, she was cut short by the Chancellor. "Young lady, it's Chancellor Lauretta once we're in these school's walls. You being my niece isn't going to save your ass."Oh, snap! Aunt?I turned my gaze to Elizabeth, shocked. Lauretta and her didn't look related at all. When Elizabeth realized my curious gaze, she sighed. "The Chancellor is an aunt of mine. My grandmother's sister, actually." She whispered.Meanwhile, Cassandra stepped forward and began hollering like a mad dog. "Chancellor Lauretta, it was all her fault." She pointed at me. "She's the one who started the whole thing."My brows creased into a frown. I'd let this bitch rub my name in the mud long enough."You're nothing but a
After school that day, I was driven home by Sylvain. Elizabeth's mother had been the one to drive me to school this morning, but my 'vampire knight'—as Elizabeth called him— decided to take me back home himself. Once we'd gotten out of the school and onto the road, Sylvain glanced at me and asked. "So... You never told me about why you and that mate of yours broke up in the first place." My heart clenched just then. I turned my gaze to him, smiling awkwardly."It's fine, Sylvain. We don't have to talk about –" I was about to wave the issue away but he interrupted me."But I want to talk about it." He paused, swerving his head to me until all I could look at was his deep golden eyes. "He's your mate, after all. And while I may not relate to the complexities of your race's relationship dynamics, I can say that you and I are at least..."Once again, he paused, placing his gaze back on the road and squinting his eyes as if he were thinking of something. But after a while, he continued.
"Stop with the unnecessary flattering." I gushed as I got closer. I'd worn a form-fitting, handless satin red gown that hugged my body. It was tight, but I wanted to look 'hot' for my birthday. Besides, Dad said I could wear anything I wanted today. Anyway, I grabbed Carlos by the wrist and dragged him away from his gathering of friends after saying hi to them."Hey, what gives?" He grumbled as soon as I got him to the center of the dance floor. "Have you seen my Dad?" I asked, glancing around. "He's supposed to be here, obviously and it's almost time for his speech."My father had promised to give a speech tonight, much to my dismay. But now I couldn't find him and the party was already getting heated.Anyway, Carlos shrugged. "I haven't seen him since lunch at your place this afternoon." He yelled through the music before pausing. He began bobbing his head to the music playing and screeched. "Gosh, they're playing Chappell Roan's 'Good Luck, Babe." I listened and in fact, that w
During my distress, Alpha Dromos's words were barely audible, and soon, everything spaced out until my vision was taken to a dark space.I looked around, terrified. One second, I was in the event hall where my birthday was taking place, and now I was in this dark space out of nowhere.Before I could talk or even make a step to move, I heard a howl behind me.My muscles froze, as I slowly turned back. Right there behind me, in the dark space, stood four wolves. They all had their gazes on me, scrutinizing me silently.However, it didn't take me long to know who these wolves were. They were my inner wolves, a representation of my werewolf side. And standing in front of them was my 'Alpha wolf' who'd been communicating with me since I was little."Alpha." I ran to her, sighing with relief. "Where are we?"My Alpha wolf had light golden fur, which was something unique on its own. Her fur flowed into the imaginary wind in the dark space, her sharp blue eyes fixed on me.Apart from my Alpha
