"This is serious," Connor said. "Apparently, a student heard voices coming from your office and he spread the rumors," Connor said. Jason sat calmly with no ounce of expression on his face while I sat there stiff as a rod with my cheeks flaming red. "You should've been more careful," Connor said. "I remember seeing a girl with you April," Jason said all of a sudden facing me. I noticed as his eyes fell on the patch on my neck and his face hardened. It took me a minute to realize what he meant. "No, Susan would never spread the rumors. Instead, she helped us hide from students," I quickly defended her and he nodded. "It was a guy who spread the rumors like Connor said," I said. "We are not here to capture the one who spread rumors," Connor said curtly, causing us to stare at him silently. "The incident is fresh so they will talk. But I'll handle it on my own. The reason I called you here is to warn you," Connor adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose. His expressions we
Jason's pov:I've hurt her. F*cking, Dammit! How could I give in to the drug and be so rough with April? I shouldn't have come to April in that state, to begin with. But where else could I've gone? I couldn't even fathom the thought of cheating on her and if I stayed on my own. I would've ended up doing something horrible. I had no choice but to reach for my mate in that vulnerable state. I was so reckless that I ended up coming after her to the university. Thanks to April's friend we got to my office safely but after that, I lost all rational parts of my self-control. I let the beast inside me take over. I was rough and wild with her. Demanding and dominating. I couldn't even think how she must've felt. She must hate me now and despite all that. I even proceeded to mark her. I won't deny it. I was dying to mark her but it shouldn’t be now, I promised her we would mark each other after our ceremony. Until the drug made me lose control. What if she hates me now? Just the mere thou
April's pov:My fear soon dissipated when I inhaled that familiar scent. I stopped moving, letting my body go limp feeling a hot breath near my ear as a solid warm body pressed against my back. "Don't scream," Jason's deep voice gave peace to my heart as I gave a nod. Thanking God that it was him because if it was anyone else I would've surely beaten the person black and blue. He slowly pulled his hand away, pulling back as I turned around in that small space. My brows furrowed in question when my eyes locked with those deep blue spheres. I had to crane my neck to look him in the eyes. "What's wrong-" He didn't even let me complete before engulfing me in a tight hug. His face was buried in my neck as he inhaled deeply. "I'm sorry," He rumbled. Voice thick with emotions. I was standing on my toes because he was so tall. "Why?" I whispered, feeling him squeezing me closer as I gently hugged him back. "Why are you sorry?" I asked in a small voice. I tried to pull back but he didn
"Why are you wearing a scarf? It's not that cold," Susan said plopping down on the seat next to mine. I glanced at her shaking my head but she cocked a brow as if she won't back out without a proper reason. I crooked my fingers at her, ushering her closer. She leaned closer, "I'm hiding Jason's mark," I whispered in a small voice holding my hand near her ear. She pulled back giving me a poker look. "I know what you're hiding. My question is why are you hiding this?" She questioned. "What if someone asks me about my mate, what would I say?" I mumbled in a whisper and she didn't seem content with my answer. "You can just make up an excuse, why hide the mark," She seemed adamant. I was about to answer her when Jason walked in. Instantly everyone settled down in their seats as I pulled away from Susan sitting straight. "Alright, hand over your assignments and then we'll start with the class," He said in a serious tone. His jet-black hair gelled back as a rogue strand touched his f
"Wake up, April." A soft kiss on my cheek had me blinking lightly as I noticed Jason beside me smiling. Seeing him smile brought a smile to my lips as well. "Good morning," He grinned. He was freshly showered and was only in his boxers looking like a five-course meal. "Good morning," I murmured sleepily, rubbing my eyes. He kissed my cheek before pulling me to his feet as I stared at his booty unabashed. He was beautiful everywhere. I say up straight, stretching my arms and yawning a little. My back throbbed a little. Last night was intense and crazy. We stayed up until the early dawn. Though I was on the brink of passing out Jason seemed he could still keep going seeing my state he had mercy on me as he cuddled me to his chest and we slept. Getting out of bed I teetered into the restroom. After a warm relaxing shower, I knocked on the door from inside. "Jason," I called. "Yeah?" He said after a second. "Can you pass the towel," I said. "Sure," He responded and two minutes la
"So what is it?" Jason asked calmly. We stepped inside the house. Liam sat on the sofa while the two of us stood there waiting for him to explain why he was here in front of our house like that. "I didn't want to come here like this. But it was important and I can't just talk on the phone regarding this," Liam started as he stared at Jason, who was quiet; urging him to go on. "It's about Stella," He started. "What about her?" Jason asked. "She's still held captive. I want you to set her free. In exchange, I could offer you my pledge to give you my loyalty, if any harm would ever come to you. I'll be there by your side to fight your enemy." He said as he continued. "Just save Stella for me, Jason. And I promise to even give my life if I had to fight for you," He said. I stared at him quietly. I didn't feel anything after hearing him and knowing how much he still cares for Stella. It just feels that whatever happened in the past was ages ago. Though my scars still ache, sometimes
I stared at her completely zoned in. She said what. Am I pregnant? My ears were ringing as I continued to stare at her. My mind skyrocketed at a wild pace as millions of thoughts barged through. "What?" My voice came out uncertain, almost shocked. "You... I mean you can be pregnant, the timing... The smell and all," She babbled, referring to Jason and my passionate sex in his office. I noticed the hand on my back stayed frozen. I turned to glance at Jason only to find him staring at Susan shocked just like me. Come to think of it, we did do it without protection. I swallowed thickly and oddly enough I was rather calm. "Let's go to the hospital," Ethan suggested. "Yeah, we should take you there," Susan said, agreeing with Ethan for the first time as both of them glared at each other. I gasped when Jason scooped me up in his arms. My eyes widened in shock but his face was so serious. It simply means that I should not argue. I quietly wrapped my arms around his neck letting him car
A few days passed by and Jason has been looking after me as if I'm a child who'll trip over at every next step. I don't blame him though. He cares for me too much. He didn't want me to get hurt or the baby. It's all nice and sweet but we are in university. He couldn't approach me in front of everyone so he just stares at me from afar and checked on me through the mind link every now and then. Strong hands grabbed my waist as his arms wrapped around me. Jason nuzzled his face in the crook of my neck inhaling deeply. "What are you making?" He queried. "Chicken pasta," I responded, moaning a little when he licked my neck. "I'm hungry," He grumbled, nibbling on my skin. "Just two minutes. It's almost ready. Can you set the table-ahh, Jason I'm not food," I chided, giving him a side eye glare and he only smiled goofily at me. "You're my food. Once I'm done with dinner. I'm gonna have a taste of you-umphh," I quickly placed my palm on his lips, shutting him up. "Stop," I grumbled wi
