Ruby

I sobbed uncontrollably, bitter with myself and that pretender, Enzo, who ended up being everything I never thought he'd be. He seemed harmless, but little did I know that he was up to no good.

My mom led me out of the nightclub, her eyes wide with fright. Although I suspected she was a bit tipsy from her stumbling movements, she still managed to hail a taxi and shove me inside.

I hated her. I hated her for making me come to Bali with her. I hated her for encouraging me to explore and have fun. I hated her for being a hypocrite and a liar.

But I couldn't tell her these things, so I kept quiet.

We arrived at the hotel, and she locked the door behind us and turned on the lights. She looked at me with concern in her cornflower-blue eyes.

"Baby, what happened?" She asked softly. "Did that boy hurt you?"

I glared at her through my tears. "And how's that any of your business?"

A gasp escaped as if I'd struck her, and her face paled with tears gathering in her eyes.

I think that Titan and Enzo planned it all. Maybe they are werewolves. Maybe related to Killian even!

    Lenora After the craziness the previous night, I woke up at five-thirty with a splitting headache. Luckily, there were painkillers in the drawer. After taking them, I decided to go for a run to clear my head and escape from the nightmare that had happened last night.I put on my running shoes, grabbed my phone, and checked the flight app again, hoping to find a way out of this hell, but the next available flight was at seven PM, which meant that we had to wait for another fourteen hours before we could leave Bali.Muttering to myself, I tiptoed out of the room without wanting to wake Ruby, who was sleeping peacefully on the bed. She looked so innocent, like an angel, and I felt like a failed mother, for exposing her to strangers who had tried to hurt her.I began running along the beach, feeling the sand under my feet and the breeze on my face.

    Ruby My niece, Jade, hugged me so hard I could barely breathe. Squealing in delight, she wrapped her arms around my neck, almost lifting me off the ground."Can you believe it, Rubs? We're in senior year! This is going to be the best year ever, especially now that I have a boyfriend," she exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with happiness.Pretending to share her enthusiasm, I returned the smile. There were familiar faces here and there, all chatting, laughing, and reminiscing about their summer. I wished I could escape from it all and go back to my quiet room where I could lay in bed all day. I didn't care about senior year or any of the things that Jade was babbling about. I just wanted to be left alone.I was in the bathroom doing my thing when I heard Tammy and the other queen bees of the school walking to the bathroom. They were putting the finishing touches on their makeup and also talking about who was dating whom. My stomach tightened when they mentioned Luca and Jade."Oh my God,

    RubyI couldn't believe that that wicked boy and his father were here. It hurt more that he was sitting at the dining table chatting with my dad, looking so smug and confident as if he had done nothing wrong and was fooling my dad, who didn't know how terrible the boy was.He didn't even glance at me and was acting like I was invisible. I felt a surge of pain. How could people be so cruel and heartless? I wanted to scream at him, to tell my dad and everyone how much he hurt me. But I couldn't do that because the Lycans were very important and powerful, and they were my dad's guests. My dad beamed with pride, and I could tell that he was so happy.I was glad that my sister spiked Enzo's food, and I wished she had done more. I couldn't stand being in the same room with him anymore, so I excused myself to get some fresh air. My mom gave me a worried look but didn't say anything. She was also battling with her demons.It didn't help that Jade and Luca were also around. I didn't want to se

He flirted with anyone, not caring whether they were married or not, and I was annoyed. I couldn't wait for him to get the hell out of my house.I hated him so much because he was a very good pretender and hated myself for falling for his cheap ploy. The party was over. CJ asked me to show the entourage their rooms. I was about to walk past a room but gasped in shock when he drew me inside and shut the door."What are you doing, Titan?"

Instead, he was adamant and had an amused smile. "You know you turn me on when I see you mad. I missed your lips, darling. And this is between you and me, but I came here

    Lenora"You're going to hell," my older sister, Esme, walked into my room, gasping in shock at my outfit for my eighteenth birthday.It was a shimmery black top showing a bit of cleavage, black shorts, and a beaded crystal pearl necklace with matching earrings which was my mum's last gift from my dad before her death"Gladly," I smiled like a satisfied cat and wiggled my wide hips.Esme eyed my necklace and scrunched her face, before helping me unbuckle my white gladiator sandals."Seriously, Lenora, it's your birthday and not an ass parade. Don't tell me you're still on to your stupid plan of seducing a man old enough to be your dad?"I stopped laughing and threw her a poker face. "Okay, first of all, I don't plan to seduce anyone. My outfit isn't that bad, and secondly, CJ isn't old.""He's twenty years older than you. Don't be delusional."I groaned, frustrated that Esme didn't understand that I couldn't control my feelings. "All I want is for him to notice me, to see me as a wom

    CJMy fingers wrapped around the cold, damp surface of my beer bottle and my heart couldn't stop thumping loudly.Because of my foolishness and obsession with a girl young enough to be my daughter, I ruined her party. My wolf was furious that I kissed her sister. It begged me to mark Lenora instead, but after making her cry, it was now so pissed that it threatened to rip my ribs into sheds. But my human side resisted the raging desire in my body. Lenora was half my age and Mariselle's best friend, for crying out loud. She was practically a child and feelings for her were wrong and I shouldn't have come here in the first place. I vowed to stay away from this house but Lenora's dad, Maddox, and my daughter didn't give me much of a choice. Then I decided to do the unthinkable by kissing her older sister, which turned out to be a foolish mistake. It took a great deal of self-restraint not to search for Lenora and wipe the sadness and tears in her cornflower blue eyes. Esme thought L

    LenoraThe crisp morning air hit my face as I rushed for lectures, surrounded by the chatter of students. It was my third month here and despite my bittersweet connection with my course of study and my last-minute decision to come to Eldridge, I had grown to love it.My dad was shocked to the core and Mariselle was pissed when she heard my change of plans, but I'd made up a flimsy excuse of wanting to be independent.I hated leaving my dad and our town which was a six-hour drive from Eldridge, but it was the wisest decision I made.It was a shame that I chose environmental management as a result of my stupid crush on CJ. I was such an idiot, head over heels in love with him, and wanted to impress him. That's why when I noticed his passion for wildlife conservation and environmental management, I looked into it just to impress him and be on the same wavelength.Despite all my efforts, he didn't like me and instead slammed me with a painful heartbreak. Strangely, I'd genuinely grown

    LenoraThe popular restaurant at Eldridge, FoodHub, buzzed with students from all corners of the campus, and even some of our lecturers came here to eat.Loud laughter filled the air, and knives scraped against plates when I walked in. This place was always packed because the food was great compared to other restaurants.My mind was still reeling from the unexpected encounter with CJ.CJ of all people was my new professor. What a damn coincidence. The coincidence that I feared would destroy me totally because how in the world was I going to compose myself?All my suppressed desires and longing feelings for him now clashed, and my skin prickled pleasurably, making my breathing harsh and uneven.How the hell was I supposed to deal with this?CJ had all the girls' attention, and to my utter disappointment, I was stupidly jealous. All my months of pep talks and mantras flew out the window.He got over his surprise at seeing me almost immediately and became stiff and remote like a public m

    Lenora The first thing that hit me when I stepped into the nightclub with Titan by my side was regret. Unable to fill my lungs, my thoughts turned inwards. I didn't know what it was, but it felt like Titan was controlling my mind, taking control of every cell in my body and keeping a tight grip on my consciousness.When I got to the door, I realized just how stupid I was acting. After CJ called me earlier, I decided to stay away from Titan, knowing that I was growing an attraction for him, but here I was in the club with him, ready to dance the night away. He took my hand and gave it an appreciative squeeze before releasing it.The music was too loud, and the lights were flashing everywhere, making it impossible to see past the crowd, but Titan's eyes were glued to me as if he wanted to see what was under my clothes.I didn't belong here. Maybe if Ruby hadn't gone out for the karaoke night with Enzo and I had someone to talk to, I wouldn't have agreed to come out with Titan.But when

    Lenora An adorable smile appeared on Ruby's face, and Enzo grabbed her hand as they ran off, laughing. My daughter looked so happy and carefree, and I could tell she was into the boy. I couldn't blame her. The young man was dashingly handsome, with eyes that seemed to sparkle in the sunlight. His hair was parted neatly on one side of his head, with a few tendrils that had escaped, falling onto his forehead. He had a well-built body and strong arms.Standing beside his father, I stole a glance at him. His eyes lit up with a warm smile as he watched the children."It seems our kids are really into each other," he smiled, thrusting his hands in his pockets."It seems so," I cleared my throat and smiled back. But when Titan leaned closer to me, my body froze with paranoia, my blood started beating rapidly, and my heart skipped a beat as though it wanted to escape from my chest."You know, there's something very unique about your girl. Something I can't quite place my finger on," he reac

    Ruby I was as high as a kite. The vape was so powerful, and it made me feel dizzy and lightheaded. Enzo was high too, and he was smiling, talking, and even touching me."Enzo, please. Let's go," I tried to push him away, but he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer. Then he planted a kiss on my neck."Come on, don't be a sourpuss. We're having fun, sweetie."My body shivered, and I pushed myself away from him. "I really have to go to my mom."Adding enough strength, I stumbled away from him and towards the hotel, hoping my mom wouldn't be in the room. But when I opened my door with my key card, she was on the couch watching a movie on the TV.My heart skipped, and I hoped she wouldn't notice. She merely looked in my direction and waved at me. I sighed in relief when I snuck into the bathroom to wash my face with cold water.After failing miserably to sober up, I snuck into the bedroom and hit the bed, pulling the covers over my head and closing my eyes.I woke up hours late

    Ruby I ran into my mum at the hotel lobby, just as I was coming back from the beach. She looked surprised to see me and flustered, like someone running away from something."Darling Where have you been?" she asked. "You need your sunscreen so you don't get sunburned," she said in a motherly voice."I was at the beach. What about you? Where are you coming from?" I asked, staring at her flushed cheeks.She smiled sheepishly and glanced around. "Oh, I was just... sightseeing. You know, enjoying the beauty of Bali."I raised my eyebrows and smirked. "Sightseeing, huh? With whom? That man?"She blushed and shook her head. "No one, just by myself."I didn't believe her for a second. I knew she was lying but decided not to confront her about it. I didn't want to ruin our vacation. Besides, it was none of my business. She was a grown woman, and she could do whatever she wanted except cheat on my dad."Come on, let's go to our room," she grabbed my hand..We entered our room and locked the do
