“There, tighten your grip on my arms, Eli, just a few steps and we’ll get there,” Lucas said as he accompany me from taking a step. I can feel the beads of sweat forming in my forehead as we take every step to get into my doorstep. I didn’t think that I will actually experience getting my ankle sprained before, not from any activities, but from trying to escape from someone. I am literally ashamed when even after all the ignoring and avoiding phase, still, he didn’t hesitate to get me and carry me on his back and take me to our university’s clinic.
“I am okay here, Lu. I think I can manage walking by myself this time. Thanks for the ride and please, have a safe drive!” I told Lucas. I pull back my hand from holding him to fish the keys of my dorm out of my bag. When suddenly, I felt Lucas not moving from his spot, having no intention to leave--as I expected of course. I cease

Eliana’s POV “You should have just let me make the coffee,” I said almost boastfully. “Hey, I succeeded on the second try,” Hugo countered. “Yeah, you managed to make it a little less sweet than the first batch. And now you are suggesting we bake some cookies. I am afraid of what will happen in my kitchen, for real,” I said, amusement dancing in my eyes. I probably look like a child right now. “Okay, fine, no cookies. Maybe next time, though,” he gave up pushing the cookie idea. We have the cake that he brought anyway. As we were sipping our coffees and eating, he decided to start a conversation. I feel like he thinks that he cannot bore me with silence. I do not think that I would be comfortable with that, either. He is not Lucas. “So, how is your ankle?” he started. “Getting better. Thanks again for being a gentleman and a

Hugo’s POV“You do not get to make a rule when you are the one committing fraud!” Katelyn said, basically meant for the character in the movie we are watching together. Submitting the tons of school works and tasks that our professors have giiven to us means our schedule will be a little loosen since we have already passed ours. It also means free cut, for the very considerate and cool professors only, of course. So, we; I, Eliana, Katelyn, and even Lucas, agreed to have something to do, which came up with an idea of Katelyn—watching movies. We are currently at Eliana’s dormitory, which I suggested before they could think of coming into my place. I saw Lucas keenly eyeing me, definitely eager to suggest my place in a cool manner-- eager to investigate. But sorry, my tongue ran faster than his, a very better luck next time if there would be.Eliana shook her head, not taking what’s Katelyn had said. “

Eliana's POVI suddenly had this strong urge of decluttering my closet. I got up early today, with the mission of cleaning my room, like every corner of it, before I get ready for Hugo and I’s hangout later. I sweep the floor using the new broom that I bought online which only arrived yesterday. Along the process, I collect all of the stuff that I own but deemed useless now in order for it to stop taking too much space. I also got rid of the books that I have already read a long time ago. I am planning to give these to Lucas in case something in it would attract his interest. The remaining ones would be donated to public libraries or for children. After sweeping, I removed the mop from my cleaning materials corner, wet it, then proceeded to mop the whole room. I have also cleaned the mess in the kitchen that was made yesterday when my friends came over. The trash would be taken out by me later when I go out.After all of these chores, I debated with

Eliana’s POV[“So are you available today?”] I ask Katelyn from the other line.My mind was awoken first before my body did. It seemed like there’s a task that is still unaccomplished, the first thing I did when I hauled myself up from my bed was to rack my mind with information, and that’s when I remember that all the clothes I have decluttered on the other day was not yet delivered and donated. Based on my calculations, there’s quite a lot of amount of clothes I will be donating so I needed an extra hand to help, that is why I am asking Katelyn.There’s an un audible sound I have heard from Kate’s line, something that could broke my ear by listening so I take my phone away from my ear for second. [“Hey, Katelyn, are you still there? What’s that noise?”] I asked.[“Hey, Yes, I am still here! Could you hear me now?”] Kately

Hugo’s POVToday feels lighter, compared to all the other days that I have had in the human world. I feel better, at peace, and surprisingly… happier. I feel happier. Maybe because Eliana have been warming up to me like the old times. We have been out and about frequently. She now hesitates less in coming to me for help, because I made sure to make her feel that she does not need to hesitate at all. Whenever she calls, wherever the place may be, whatever the situation is, I assure her that I will be there. And this is how things are going exactly as I have planned. But this does not seem important to me now as it did back then. Am I slacking off? This cannot be. I could not lose my momentum. And the worst part is that I do not feel the pressure that usually pushes me to do better, to do literally anything that would help me get back on track. Maybe I really am slacking off.My thoughts were ruined when I realized that my feet ar

Eliana’s POVMy throat is getting hurt from all the laugh I have been doing because of Katelyn’s stories. “Where did you get all these stories from? You said you are busy with something but it seems like you have been on social media, rummaging for all these!” I told Katelyn while laughing. It honestly feels like ages since I laugh this hard. It’s just so funny I could literally roll on the ground while laughing, if anyone would not mind.Lucas in my side is shaking his head. “It’s not even that funny.” He said, his eyes is on laughing Hugo did not escape my eyes, something flickered on his eyes before it was averted from his food. Something that could name like an irritation. Not going to lie, that made my mood shifted a little bit. What is seriously Lucas’ problem to Hugo? It’s been months since the ‘new guy’ that isn’t new anymore cam

Eliana’s POV“I do not like how you are getting too close with that guy, to be completely honest with you,” Lucas said.We are now in his room, with me sitting on his bed while he sat on the floor, his back leaned against the foot of his bed. After our last class, we mutually decided that we needed to talk, and that we should just talk here because it is private. I have just asked him what the matter is when he gave me that response.“Hugo have been with us for a while now. You still calling him ‘that guy’ is just rude, Lucas. Like, what really is your problem? I got it the first time, you were skeptical of his existence because he was new. But now that he have been around long enough already, you are still acting like that. I do not get it, Lucas. He is even nice to you even when all you ever do is breathe down his neck whenever he is in your presence. I am not asking you to be friend

Hugo’s POVI already tried browsing the internet, hoping to stumble with an answer in the homework that our professor assigned to our class but my head hurts from all the terms that was being used to the explanation I have seen related to our homework; the reason why I didn’t get to answer it, for the explanation was vague to me and my mind cannot seem to recognize nor digest any of it. I am already certain that being a student, in the human world, is such a tiresome. Though I should not worry if I flunk or pass, a tiny bit of something is kind of pushing me to strive to study, that’s why I sent a message to Eliana for help.My phone beeped, indicating that I received a message. I open and close my eyes to set aside the tiredness I am feeling. I clicked the link that Eliana included in the text she have sent me for an enlightenment.

Third Person’s POV “It is so stuffy in here, Eli. I am still wondering how you managed to live in this kind of environment for four years,” said Ross Deere a.k.a. Boss R, the leader of the powerful Deere pack, and the father of Eliana Deere who is the one and only heiress to the throne. “Dad, can you stop complaining for a second? You blabbering about your complaints like that would not make the situation in favor of you, yeah?” Eli responded, trying to sound annoyed but failing to do so. Today is their graduation day. Finally. After four long years of studying, working so hard in every exams and recitations, even cramming for the major tests, things had finally paid back. They had already came to this moment. They could finally get ahold of their long-desired diploma, face the real world, and apply the knowledge that they had learned in the workplace. Now, this is true for most students, or should we say graduates

Hugo’s POV“Don’t you think it’s time for you and your brother to have a clean slate? I mean… I am not trying to omit the fact that he caused pain to you that made you do some unexplainable things; that made him worse, but… I just think even after all the chaos and all the fights either of you had put up, that did not imply that you guys do not deserve a peace of mind. You deserve it, Hugo. Even the most vile and obnoxious individual deserved to have it,” Eliana, in the middle of nowhere said.I actually think of that thought lately, it messed with my head the past few days. I thought if I had the mess between Eliana and I cleaned, my mind will function smoothly right away. It’s not like I am not contented with what happened to Eliana and I, because dude, do not ever get me started because if I have time, I could have all the things that Eliana brought to my existence listed. More like, the t
Clash of Hearts Chapter 29
Eliana’s POV Remembering the events from last night had me smiling like an idiot. For months, I had missed the feeling of being this contented, at peace, and just happy. So many things had happened in the past few months of my life. Thinking about it now, I do not know how I even survived it and stay well until now. It felt I was sleepwalking. Yeah, that is the right way to describe it. It felt like I was fully not in control of everything that have been happening to me. It was very awful, all of it, and I do not ever want to go back there ever again. It is all in the past now. I had learned from it, but I would not keep on living in it. That is why when Hugo and I got to talk yesterday, I listened. It was his chance to explain his side to me, and I let him have that. When he elaborated all of his reasons behind his actions, I really listened. That was what I failed to do in the course of three months that I avoided him and stopped talki
Clash of Hearts Chapter 28
Hugo’s POVBefore I have fallen in love with Eliana, the only thing I really want was to sit on the throne and rule our pack, and by the means of that, I have to cross all the line and do what I have to—so I could grasp the power in my hand, so I could beat my brother down; so I could make my father proud. But all that reasons seemed not able to make my heart ponder anymore, because as cheesy it may sound, it was only the thought of her that could make my mind be capable to be sane and my heart to beat. So the first thing my eyes landed into her—right in front of me, only had a few inches to make our arms touched, with almost three months I hadn’t be able to go near her—it was as if my tongue was being cut, I was unable to speak; and was only given an eyes to look through her, only to her.But my mind went back to reality. There are so many things I should clean up first, I know, and I should start doing that. I
Clash of Hearts Chapter 27
Eliana’s POVIt had been two months, going three, since the talk happened. The talk being the one where I confessed to Kat what I truly am, like my real identity, me being a vampire and not a human like them. The talk obviously did not go well. Kat was mad, really mad, to the point that I did not even get the chance to elaborate myself and my situation. That day with Kat walking out of my dorm room, Lucas following him because I told him to, and me being left all alone there. Alone to cry and crumble, feeling like the whole world is against me, suffering the consequences because of my own doing.What was worse was that Kat started ignoring me after that, too. She would avoid me in every way possible. The routes to school, to the places where I eat, and she even stopped sitting with me in the classrooms. Lucas would always invite us two at his place, or anywhere, just to get us all together. But Katelyn would always, always reject. She

Eliana’s POV“I will see you tomorrow with Katelyn, okay? Please do know that whatever will happen, I am always here, ready to be confided in, alright? And please… please use this whole night to have a rest. I know in your kind… sleep isn’t really necessary but please… please do rest, okay?” Lucas said, ruffling my hair that temporarily assuaged what I have been feeling since I turned my back on Hugo. He’s really too good that made me realize how cruel the world he’d been living in, how worst the person he’s been ruffling the hair with.I nodded my head at him and smiled, hoping the exhaustion would somehow go off of my face. I really want to express my gratitude to him, but even smiling is preventing me to do so. I am afraid if I would move my limbs something will snap within me. I am just beyond exhausted and just wanted to be engulfed by solitude, in a claustrophobic room wher
Clash of Hearts Chapter 25
Lucas’ POVAn hour. It had been exactly an hour since Eliana and Hugo departed. Kat went straight home, claiming that she still have something important to do. As for me, I went directly to Eli’s place. We had decided that I would just wait for her here, although I insisted that I should come with her. For safety purposes, obviously. But she reasoned out that Hugo and her are both vampires and if I would go with her, I am going to be the one who would need protection.She called me last night, saying that she wanted to confront Hugo as soon as possible. She decided that she would just do it casually, reasoning that there would be no use holding back. She knows the truth now and wants to know everything behind the truth as well.I, too, Eliana, want to know everything. I smiled bitterly. Love really has its way of clouding up your rationality, yeah? In all the years of my life, I had never once thought that I
