CJ

Brooklyn was seated behind her desk in a plush leather swivel chair when I entered her office. I offered a bright smile, hoping she'd ended any lingering bitterness she held against me.

Clearly, my hopes were in vain. She sat with one leg crossed over the other, staring at me impassively through narrowed eyes.

The silence went on for almost thirty seconds before she let out a bored sigh, greeting me with a frown and pretending to be extra busy despite keeping me waiting for over an hour and a half.

Calmly, I waited, needing her signature on my thesis for the research grant before moving forward.

"Good morning, Prof. I hope I'm not intruding on anything important."

A humorless smile tugged at her lips, a cold and congested expression that might have terrified me if I didn't know what lay beneath it.

"I'm actually quite busy, as you can see. Make it quick."

"Noted," I said, handing her the thesis anyway. "I need you to sign before I meet the dean of studies."

    LenoraI found myself seated beside Linda in Kilian's apartment. My mood had been better before CJ's call, now I was feeling all sorts of unease, wondering what had gotten into him.Returning from the kitchen after I hung up on him, I made my way back to the living room. Killian handed me a slice of pizza, which I accepted gratefully and sat there with it, not eating. "Yo, it's great to have you guys back," Killian said, his voice warm and ringing across the room. "The campus felt so quiet without the usual banter. Got some much-needed rest though.""And some booze," Kevin laughed."And some fuck?" Linda said breezily and poured orange juice into a glass, her laughter ringing."Yuck. I'm a virgin. Saving myself for my wife," Kevin saidLinda rolled her eyes and shook her head, "Weirdo.""Don't get your hopes up with me," Kevin chuckled nastily. "I'd love my wife to be my only slut.""I pity her already," Linda murmured and despite my foul mood, I laughed, nudging her to give the guy

    LenoraMy heart pitter-pattered against my chest when Killian drew nearer, his gray eyes clinging to my face studying me intently. I found myself lowering my lashes, unable to hold his penetrating stare."Hey, Killian."He showed no signs of backing down and I could sense the upcoming barrage of questions. How could I confess that he was the reason why CJ and I were having issues? The innocent guy wasn't the reason behind CJ's unnecessary worrying and controlling nature. If anything, Killian was caring and despite my obvious rejection, he didn't take offense or show hurt. He just accepted it and acted as if nothing happened while he continued to treat me normally. It was so nice, refreshing even."Are you going to tell me what's going on? You look so uneasy. It's your dad calling again, isn't it?"Struggling to maintain a smile, I shook my head. "No, it's nothing, really. Just some personal stuff I need to sort out."Killian's eyes narrowed, lips pressed in a tight line, openly expre

    CJLenora's eyes were bright and glossy and I touched her face before her lips met mine in a wet, hot slide. The kiss was long and leisurely, making me dizzy with pleasure. Her fingers found the hem of my shirt and tugged at it with a smile while my mouth opened under hers, tongue tracing the seam of her bottom lip. Our tongues tangled and she made a small, pleased hum."I adore you so much, Lenora." "And I love you." She scraped her nails down the hard muscles of my abdomen, letting her hands play over my body. Every touch was a rough promise and my body softened in welcome to her touch.She looked like something out of a bad porno, her skin flushed with lust and her hair pulled back in an unruly braid from her forehead. Her nipples peaked at the thin material of her bra as she worked her hand over me."Lean back and have fun," she chuckled, wrapping one slender hand around my erection. Her reaction to my thickness was always so wholesome. She was always so excited to suck me.She

    Lenora"Hey, you," Killian chuckled, his footsteps echoing on the path. "You've been acting like a ninja all afternoon."I plastered a fake smile on my face. In his outstretched arm, he held a cone of ice cream. I thanked him and he grinned, dropping his hand over my shoulder possessively."Be my muse," he dragged me along, making me pose for photographs. "Get your butt in gear.""Come on, Killian," I groaned, dragging my feet while he led me under an oak tree. Killian kept snapping photos of me as if there was no tomorrow. CJ however was fuming. The lines around his mouth became sharpened, eyes narrowing in anger. For a second, I panicked and began to sweat profusely. The moment his eyes met mine, the anger slipped away, replaced by something warmer - his famous half-smile that made me forget every single reason not to fall for him.To avoid Killian suspecting anything, I behaved myself and stayed away from CJ, while CJ kept sending me angry emojis that made me laugh. I could see

    Lenora CJ adjusted the rearview mirror, pretending to act normal, but he avoided eye contact with me, sweating profusely with his body shaking like a thunder-stricken tree. Fear knotted inside of me making my stomach roll. Tired of waiting for him to speak, I bombarded him with questions."What in heaven's name are you hiding, CJ? Talk to me. Did someone die?"He flinched, his hands twisting nervously around his phone. "No, baby," he said, and his voice drifted into a hushed whisper as he rubbed my palm with his thumb.I pulled my hand away when my phone vibrated against my thigh but when I was about to pick it up, CJ snatched it from me, tucking it in his pocket."Y-you can't see that."Startled, my mouth fell open and CJ looked at me like a bird that had been shot. Suddenly, the air seemed unbearably hot with heat sticking to my skin and my heart thumped painfully."Can I have my phone back?" I composed myself, mustering strength to be as gentle as possible."No, baby. You need t

    Lenora The room was a mess after CJ and Killian were bundled out. Jovita's makeup mirror was shattered, the hair dryer broken, perfume bottles shattered, and my desk chair upturned. I bowed my head in humiliation, my bottom lip trembling as I burst into uncontrollable tears. "Lenora, please take a deep breath. Don't cry," Linda pleaded. "My video... Sex video... Do you know what this means? My life is fucking over!" "Oh, Len, " Linda sighed, staring helplessly at me. I wanted to hide, or even die. My thoughts were shattered. Without getting paid, my nakedness was on display for everyone to see. "Listen, Len. I know this is cliche but this isn't the end of the world," Linda begged me, trying to lift me from the floor. "It's not available in the public domain." "Yet," I reminded her, bawling my eyes out. Linda sighed, a sad look in her gaze. Then she rushed to get a broom to sweep up the mirror particles strewn about, thanks to Killian and CJ who fought like mad beasts. "H

    CJMaddox's cold banjo-like eyes bored into his daughter with disgust and back at me with intense hatred. "Stay the hell out of this!" He screamed at her. "You're a fucking disgrace.""Maddox, please heap the blame on me.She's innocent. ""You won't tell me what to do, you cum gargling fuckwit!"I dodged again as he continued to strike me relentlessly, aiming for my eye and yelling at the top of his lungs. "You know what you are? A sex-mad walking vomit, a psycho! a child groomer!" he screamed, his voice echoing across the hallway. "Since when have you been eyeing my daughter? She's just eighteen, for crying out loud.""Maddox, please..""Fuck you!" He landed another punch, and I stumbled backwards pretending to be very hurt. A vein on his forehead became engorged and he let out a guttural roar. If it were possible for him to get me killed, I was definitely about to get my death wish today. He charged forward again and I ducked under his swinging arm.Although I could easily overpo

    Lenora Fueled by anger, my dad clenched his fists, aggressively swerving through the mild, afternoon traffic. "Get the fuck out of the road, you coffin dodger!" He pounded his hands on the steering wheel and honked aggressively at an old man behind the wheels of a Ford Mustang who merged into our lane without care. He was so furious in an alarming manner that made me shrink into my seat without daring to meet his gaze and hoped we didn't end up in the hospital."I can't believe what you've done," he kept repeating. "I'm so ashamed and disappointed. Where are the values I instilled in you?"My shoulder slumped and I bit my lower lip to stop myself from bursting into tears. All my life, I've never given him reasons to be ashamed of me. His hurtful condemnation hurt more than a thousand slaps across the face. I felt like a failure for causing this reaction from him."You know what's fucked up? I thought that bastard, CJ, was a good man. I opened my home to a screwup, a backstabber, an

    LenoraI was busy making sure that the party was going in full swing and tried as much as possible to avoid Titan. Unfortunately, his charming smile and seductive voice had gotten some females in the house, including the married ones. 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?" I yelled, giving him a dirty look. I never knew I was capable of being this angry. I felt like using a knife to stab him.My nasty look didn't stop him. 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

    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

    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,

    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. The rising sun painted the sky with orange and pink hues but I couldn't enjoy the beautiful scenery and, despite trying not to focus on what

    RubyI 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."Don't raise your vo

    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
