Aria The moment I step forward, every eye in the room lands on me. The air shifts like everyone’s holding their breath, waiting to see if I’ve finally lost my mind. Joke’s on them—maybe I have. But I’m done playing the quiet little omega everyone can step on. Tonight, it’s my turn to speak, and th
Aria “Aria, I want to publicly apologize to you,” Lucas says, his voice shaking just enough to make me wonder if he’s about to cry in front of everyone. And honestly? I wouldn’t mind if he did. He clears his throat and continues, gripping the mic like it’s the only thing keeping him upright. “For
Lucas The fireworks light up the night sky, painting it in streaks of red, gold, and blue. Aria stares up, her face glowing like she’s just been kissed by the gods themselves. “This is so beautiful,” she whispers, her voice soft and awestruck. “We’re officially in 2025. I can’t fucking believe thi
“Yeah, yeah, I know,” I nod, but before I can elaborate, our friends come storming toward us. “Gosh, when are we gonna get some alone time?” I grumble, and Aria laughs. “Lucas,” Theo’s the first to pipe up, stepping forward. He’s testing the waters, probably because I haven’t said shit to him sinc
Aria I help Lucas tug off his pants, my hands trembling slightly from anticipation as I climb on top of him. My fingers work on his briefs next, sliding them down to reveal him in all his glory. We're both naked now, and I can’t help the smile that spreads across my face when I see him—thick and a
He presses me down further, arching my back and raising my ass higher. When he thrusts back into me, it’s harder, deeper, hitting the perfect spot with every stroke. The force of his movements sends shocks through my body, and I can’t stop the cries spilling from my lips. “Lucas... I’m gonna cum,”
Aria I can’t believe this is my last night on this damn ship. Tomorrow, it’s back to land and real life, and man, I am not ready. Reality’s gonna hit harder than the Wi-Fi on this floating tin can. I stroll into the cafeteria, scanning the place, and there they are—Lily and Mia, waving at me like
…… The ship finally docks, and everyone starts filing out with their luggage, all smiles and cheers. The air is buzzing with excitement—probably because we’re all finally free to shift into our wolves and go for some much-needed run in the woods. Honestly, I’m just as excited. It’s been way too lon
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
He pauses for a second, like he’s trying to find the right thing to say, but then he just nods. "I get it... I understand." I watch his face closely, trying to read him. "I’m thinking tomorrow," I add, my voice soft but sure. I wait for his reaction, but he’s holding it together better than I expec
Aria "So you're telling me the man just disappeared? Like, poof, gone?" Mia’s eyes are still wide as hell, looking all sorts of shocked, even though this is like the tenth time she’s asked. "For the last damn time, Mia, that’s what they said," Lily mutters, rolling her eyes, but Mia still looks
