I make my way to the games room, hoping to find some peace with my friends, but irritation flares the moment I see a group playing snooker like they own the place. "All of you, get out!" I bark, and they scramble away without a word. Turning to Damon, I stretch my hand out. He doesn’t need me to s
Aria It’s morning, and I’m fresh out of the medical center after my latest episode of "Let’s Beat Up the Weak Omega." Shocker, I survived. Barely. Gail’s still recovering, but at least I managed to shower and snag one of Lily’s dresses that doesn’t make me look like a librarian at a PTA meeting.
Aria "Are you alright?" Lucas’s gray eyes soften as they linger on me, trailing slowly from my face to the outline of my boobs, then my hips. That’s when I remember…I’m still wearing Lily’s stupidly short gown. My face heats up, and my core pulses with a dangerous kind of awareness. I try, but I ca
Aria The rink is buzzing with energy when I arrive. Relief washes over me…I haven’t missed Lucas’s game. “Look who decided to show up,” a familiar voice sneers. I turn to see Vanessa’s minion pointing at me, her smirk full of malice. Vanessa strides over, her perfectly manicured nails tapping ag
Aria When we finally pull apart from the kiss, I’m panting like I just ran a damn marathon, and Lucas looks as stunned as hell. The problem? my panties are soaked, and my body feels like it’s on fire. Great. Just great. “That was... uh, great,” he mutters, scratching the back of his neck. “I’m goi
Aria Smirking, I trail my fingers down his abs to the bulge in his pants. He stiffens immediately, letting out a low growl. “What the fuck are you doing?” “Proving I’m in control now,” I purr, giving his hard cock a slow rub. He arches his back, his grip tightening on my waist. “Fuck, Aria, you’
Ethan I'm still fuming as I walk away from Aria. She’s standing there, looking all stunned and shit, but I don’t even care. That’s exactly what I want. She doesn’t know it yet, but I’m gonna make her life a living hell until she’s crawling back to me, begging for my attention. I smirk to myself at
Aria “Aria... Aria!” Mia nudges me, snapping me out of my thoughts. She’s sitting right beside me in the stands, her expression all concerned like I’ve just confessed to a crime. “What’s going on?” she asks. “You’ve been giving Alpha Ethan this death glare for the past ten minutes. I thought you
“You might not know it yet, but you are special, my child. When I found out you were alive... I was elated. Full of joy. I thought you died with Martha and Kane.” “But why didn’t you do anything?” I ask, my voice tight. “Take revenge or... I don’t know. Something.” He shakes his head slowly. “I wi
Aria I’m standing there like a damn statue. My brain short-circuits. I can’t fucking move, can’t talk, can’t even blink right. Just staring at this man who apparently is Alpha Marcel... my father. My father, bro. What the actual fuck? He starts walking toward me real slow, mouth opening and closi
Aria So, Lucas slowly starts driving the car into the pack, and the people standing there just part like the damn Red Sea. The second we pass through, the gate shuts behind us with this loud-ass BOOM that nearly makes me jump out of my skin. I glance ahead and realize the only thing lighting up th
“Relax already,” he says with a soft laugh. “You’re turning into a damn yapper.” I smack his arm playfully. “I’m serious, Lucas.” “I know,” he says with a nod. “And I get you. But with Mark and me, just let it be. There’s no fixing shit there.” “He shouldn’t have brought up your mom... that wa
Aria Lucas grips the steering wheel tight, his knuckles damn near white, and lets out a deep breath. “It’s none of your fucking business.” Mark throws his head back and laughs like an idiot. A full-blown, body-shaking laugh. “Calm down, man. I was just curious. I just wanna know what she was li
Mark looks like he’s about to throw out some excuse. “No... I just feel like…” “Listen, Mark,” Before he can finish that sentence, I cut right in, already tired of their dumbass back-and-forth. “If you want, you can ride with us in Lucas' car.” “What?” Lucas snaps his head toward me, eyes wide an
Aria It’s finally morning, and Lucas and I are all set to head out. The air is calm and sharp with cold, the kind that bites through your clothes, so we both throw on our winter jackets for extra warmth. We didn’t pack much, just a school bag stuffed with a few essentials, and Lucas had said if we
“Yeah, but he already told us everything he claims to know.” “Not enough, though,” he mutters, shaking his head. “I wanna know what it looks like, the people, the way they live… all of it. I don’t trust that fucking jerk, Aria.” I glance up at him, raising a brow. “And you guys are supposed to b
Aria Aunt Esther has been staring at Lucas and me from the couch like I’ve completely lost my mind. For the past hour, she hasn’t stopped looking at us that way, ever since I barged into her apartment and told her everything that’s been going on. “I still can’t believe this,” she says for what f
