Lenora

After a highly uncomfortable weekend, with me avoiding Esme like the plague that she was, and my dad doing everything possible to cheer me up and mend the bridge between me and Esme, I was glad to return to school on Monday evening.

My dad did his best, bought me all flavors of chocolate, took me out for dinner, and credited my account with a fat amount of cash.

Nothing worked.

"She hurt me badly, Dad. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that my sister would hold such resentment towards me. And for what? It's not like I forced myself to come into this world."

"Darling…"

"No, let me finish," I cried. "She doesn't realize that I'm a victim as well. All my life, I never experienced what a mother's love feels like. No one was there when I got my first period…"

My breath hitched and I wiped the tear that strayed down my cheek. "You helped me choose a dress for my prom and attended all my PTA meetings alone. I felt so isolated and different from other people with mums. I

    LenoraKillian and I headed to the basketball court for evening practice. I didn't have much to do, so when he asked me to come watch him, I couldn't say no.Ever since the steamy encounter in CJ's office, I'd begun doubting everything, especially after his confession about the kiss with Esme. Somehow, that little information made so much difference.CJ didn't like Esme and I felt a small victory over her. Killian was a great sportsman. I sipped my milkshake and watched him from the bleachers, practicing free throws and dribbling the basketball, while I had a chat with Mariselle, who couldn't stop calling and texting me after hearing about my fight with Esme, minus her my rendezvous with her dad of course. /You know, I've never liked your sister. She's such a stuck-up, entitled bitch with her boobs bigger than our heads combined and her flat, pancake ass/A maniacal laughter escaped my lips which I swallowed immediately one of the boys gave me a weird look./I've just been polite ar

    Lenora"Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, dear Kevin. Happy birthday to you!"Kevin turned, sharply surprised at the display of love for him. I held a mini vanilla cake while Linda held out a box of gifts. "We didn't know the flavor you'd prefer, so we went with a vanilla cake," I smiled apologetically.We planned the surprise, with Killian suggesting that we pretend to forget Kevin's birthday, and planned to surprise him while we gathered to study at the quad.Kevin blushed, and Linda and I burst out into undiluted laughter."You're so adorkable," Linda playfully pinched Kevin's cheeks. "I think you need a serious makeover.""Oh really? And what's wrong with my current style?" Kevin's hand flew to his chest, pretending to be offended."Well, for starters, those ugly baggy jeans have got to go," Linda chimed in, "and then that pink sweater. Ugh, reminds me of my great grandma." I nodded, chucking. "You're a handsome guy, Kev, but a little wardrobe upgrade

    CJI burst into full-hearted laughter, my heart ringing with joy at the sight of Lenora who tore off like a scared rabbit. She was two-timing that stupid boy and it caused a flush of warmth to spread through my body. I'd fantasized about the feeling of satisfaction knowing that Lenora was mine and mine alone. "Aren't you too harsh on him? Or perhaps you've jealous that he's got the girl," my subconscious mocked me. "She sleeps in his apartment and not yours. He has free access to fuck her, but you don't." "Yeah yeah, whatever," I snarled, too satisfied by Lenora's pussy juices to be bothered by my inner voice right now. Although all I did tonight was received, it gave me so much pleasure, so much that I grew hot and feverish with a fireball of pure bliss raging inside of me. It was better than the real deal. Lenora was so beautiful beyond words, and I relished in her taste, her scent, and every touch she bestowed upon me. Her taste was exquisite on my tongue, and I smiled, reme

    LenoraMy belly knotted with regret as I brushed my teeth and stared at my reflection in the mirror.What the fuck was I doing? Never in my life would I have imagined myself involved in two-timing. Replaying what happened tonight, I loathed myself and felt like shit, not because I didn't love how CJ made my body feel but because I was lying to Killian. Although my relationship with Killian was initially meant to make CJ feel jealous, I knew that he liked me and had shown me multiple times that he wanted us to take this a step further. "Damn it. This is so frustrating," I whined out loud, contemplating the solution to this craziness I'd involved myself in. I finished brushing my teeth and was about to peel my clothes when I heard Kilian's voice.It was a narrow escape that he didn't catch me messing around with CJ in the backyard. He missed us by a fraction, and I had to run around the wall to get back into the club."Where the hell have you been? We were about to throw a search p

    Lenora This is messed up," Killian grumbled with an edge to his voice and lay back in bed, hands plopped behind his head and staring at the ceiling with a bleak look."I'm going to get to the root of this. Why should anyone knock on the door with such ferocity and leave without announcing themselves?" "Relax, Killian," my finger traced the vein on his left hand. "I'm sure this person is just a troublemaker who wants to get a reaction from you."He murmured under his breath, then his eyes met mine, steadying my face. "I'm sorry for this invasion from this bastard. We should probably spend the night together just in case there's a robbery attack," he suggested, and I responded with a nod."That's okay. Goodnight and try to get some sleep" I whispered and leaned forward for a quick peck on his cheek before crawling into the space beside him.This was crazy and I imagined CJ coming up and banging on the door. No one else could be behind all of this. It made me want to laugh at the sheer

    CJI couldn't stop laughing after Lenora hung up on me. I'd never felt so amused and entertained in a long while. The fact that she'd been snarky hours after I made her climax made it even more hilarious. No doubt, this was way more than I bargained for. It was becoming wilder than I'd intended, but I was enjoying the thrill of watching her, except for tonight when that bastard made her give him a handjob. I had set a stealth cam, a button-style mini CCTV camera, in a discreet place in Kilian's apartment, somewhere they would never even find out. It was incredibly small, the size of a button.The computer gurus I hired made sure to add a QR code and paired it with my phone to prevent unauthorized access to my camera feed. The film would be updated in three weeks, and that was more than enough to know who Killian was.Lenora didn't know that I had my ways. At first, I didn't intend to use it for anything other than a necessary purpose. After I had begun suspecting Killian, I sent the

    I beamed in excitement. Truth be told, I wasn't surprised because, as a werewolf, I was more in tune with nature than humans, and the things they would naturally wave off or ignore meant a lot to me. I guess they could see my passion and decided to give me a chance.I received congratulations from other lecturers for securing the grant, but Santos, the cunt waffle, bared his teeth and undid his tie, as if it was choking his lungs, which wouldn't even be a bad idea."This is unfair. This man is just a new lecturer. Why is the board biased towards him?."I chuckled at how rough his voice sounded and held my shoulders back and a sigh of satisfaction for putting him in his place."My proposal is based on solid research and data. I put in the effort to make it the best it can be, unlike some people who presented half-baked research from the Internet."Santos called me incompetent and worthless, earning a scolding from my other colleagues."Be quiet, Santos," a lanky man snapped at Santos a

    LenoraMy eyes skimmed through my textbook as I leaned on my table, trying to cover as many topics as possible. I stifled a yawn, not wanting to make a sound in the library and my fingers flipped through the pages of my textbook, loving the scent of the ink. The end of the semester's exams was soon going to commence, and I had a lot to cover. Students trooped into the library to get some extra studying done before exams commenced on Monday or Tuesday.I tried focusing on my book while simultaneously trying to stay awake. I noticed I was unusually cranky when my fingers traced over an ecosystem interaction diagram. I stared at my palm, which was decorated with several ink stains. This particular topic on waste management was so annoying, and I had tried everything to make it easier, from post-it notes with color-coded tags to YouTube videos, and even one-on-one interactions did not help much.Groaning with frustration, I kept it aside and glanced over at the climate change handout

    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
