CHLOE

      He's not gay. A gay man will never talk about having three girlfriends in high school. I'm just sitting down and watching as he takes my girlfriends to comedy lane. We haven't talked about me being rejected again, I guess it's a good thing it's been hard for me to even think about it. It's better for me to watch this clown act like an idiot than for me to bring up my failure.

"Hey, Chloe." He calls me and I put on my best fake smile, the fake smile that can convince you that I like you. "Who's your favorite comedy actor?" My girls are looking at me and they look brainwashed. I turn to face Chris who has that genuine smile on his face, his smile looks more real than mine. I also don't know why he's asking this question, what does this have to do with our club? Sure we talk about movies and music but he's not supposed to know that, he just joined us.

"Uh, Chris Rock?" I say and he snaps his finger.

"I love that guy." He's still looking at me and I want him to look away so I can remove this fake smile and roll my eyes but since he doesn't want to look away I'm going to bring up something else.

"So Chris, have you written any books?" I take a sip from my coffee.

"Oh I don't write books I'm a journalist." I feel like wiping that wide smile off his fucking face.

"Oh wow." Oh God, I think Cindy notices that my voice is fake cause she's looking at me like I'm crazy. Well, I hope she does notice because I can't believe this. It's not that I hate all men I just needed to hang around with women so we can rant about how wrong Mr. Moe was for rejecting my work. Now there's a man here who's going to tell me the same old thing. Rejection is redirection.

A man who's going to try to justify all the nasty things his brothers have done to vulnerable girls.

Maybe I should stop thinking about this, there's no rule that says men aren't allowed. He looks nice either way.

"Yeah." He says. "I'm trying to get a job at ABC News I have my job application ready and stuff. You guys wish me luck."

"Good luck." They all echo and they're smiling like maniacs I don't even know why Aisha is blushing, she has a handsome and sexy fiance she doesn't need this guy to make her blush. Although, maybe he's able to make her blush because he isn't white. I did hear her say she will never find white guys attractive. At least she's crushing on someone who looks like he won't leave a woman after they've had sex.

"Okay, okay an hour has gone and since Chris is new, let's hear him talk about his favorite books, the best book to movie adaptations, and his favorite authors."

Great another opportunity to open that mouth of his and now I have to listen for the next two hours. Monet's has always been my comfort spot beside my home but now it's not. Maybe I'm being too dramatic and I should give this guy a chance.

After hearing him say he loved reading high school romance novels I was taken away, a man admitting that he likes romance novels? That's amazing. Now I'm all ears, I love a man who's not afraid to speak his truth. Why didn't I have sex with him instead?

We're done with the club and I've got to say, I misjudged Mr. Joshua and I shouldn't have. He's not just a male he's a male feminist. He disagrees with almost everything his toxic male friends have done. Technically they're not his friends but still.

I also told everyone that I got rejected again and their focus was on me, Christian also gave an advice.

"Just look at the things that your publisher doesn't like and don't change them, just make them stronger and better." He said and I was happy and grateful he said that because all I've been hearing is rejection is redirection. And I got tired of hearing that shit.

The girls are talking to each other, and I'm about to join them when Christian stops me to talk. Does he always smile a lot? Even when I put on a fake smile my mouth hurts, smiling is hard. This man was someone whom I wanted to disappear, now I kinda like that he's here. I also realize that he's cute as hell, maybe I too should forget about white guys and start spending time with men like Christian who have pink lips and smooth brown skin, I wonder what his lips feel like.

And I need to slap myself for thinking that way.

"Hey." He says.

"Hey," I reply, he smells like breath mint and flowers. A man who smells good turns me on. That guy I had sex with also smelt good. And I should stop thinking about that guy and start thinking about how I'm going to perfect my work, I shouldn't be thinking about guys at all.

"I just wanted to tell you you've got this, don't let some old fart tell you you can't do anything." He sounds so confident, we just met and he already believes in me. I'm here blushing like an idiot. What the fuck is wrong with me sometimes?  "Wait, the guy is old right?" He asks and we giggle.

I nod "yes, yes he is."

"They always are." He says.

"Yeah whatsup with that?" We laugh again and I try my best not to blush again but too late. I'm sorry but it's quite impossible not to blush in front of this fine specimen of a man. Now I get why the girls were all giggly and shit. Everything about this guy is neat, his clothes, his nicely cut fade. Everything.

"Anyway, I've gotta go. Have to see if they've accepted the job offer or not."

"I hope you get the job." Uh oh, I've got my flirty voice on. The voice I used to seduce my roommate's boyfriend into having sex with me, the voice I used on that bartender to get more drinks, the voice that creepy man must have heard and that made him think about wanting to talk to me, and the voice I used on that hot guy last night now I'm using it on this bookworm, who knew male bookworms were hot?

"Alright, see you around." I wave and he goes out the door. He didn't even ask for my number. That proves it, he doesn't like me like that.

The girls want to go to the club to have fun but I decline, I want to go home and just work, I don't have the strength for fun at the moment.

"Are you sure hun?" Cindy asks. "It's gonna be just us girls no hot, I mean no Christian. . . " We all laugh. "You guys know what I mean."

"Yeah and Aisha is it too late to break up with your fiance?" Lexi jokes and Aisha giggles.

"Nope. He's just as handsome as Mr. Christian." She says confidently.

"Is that so."

"Yep."

"If you say so."

I shake my head and I'm smiling.

These girls are messed up.

"Okay if that's what you want," Cindy says then hugs me, the girls do the same and we say bye to each other and go our separate ways.

I turn around and I bump into someone, my bag falls to the ground.

"I'm so sorry." We both say and he gets my bag and hands it over to me. I can't believe it, it's him the guy I had sex with last night. He looks at me like he's seeing a ghost. Ugh! I feel like slapping his handsome face right now.

"You again," I say then I fold my arms, I honestly didn't want to see this clown again, well maybe I did want to see him tell him how disgusting it was to leave without saying anything. The universe has allowed me to call this fool out on his rudeness and I'm not gonna waste the opportunity despite how handsome or hot he is.

    NATHANI didn't plan this I swear, I wanted to get a cup of coffee and I bumped into her, and no I didn't hear her with my super hearing, it doesn't work like that. In the streets where there are noises, you have to have full-on concentration if you want to hear someone from afar and that's not what I did. I didn't even know she was going to be here. Could it be fate bringing us together? I hope so because I want to believe there could be something between us. Something cosmic.But I don't think there's going to be anything cosmic between us when she wants to run away from me right now. "Wait! Please!" I yell. But she doesn't stop. "No, why should I? For all, I know you could be even worse than that creepy guy with the dirty beard." She says and it stings, that guy was a pervert and for her to compare me to him is a slap on the face. This means I hurt her by leaving and not saying goodbye, and if she's that hurt does that mean she likes me? Maybe she did like me and I blew it by run

Whoever this mother fucker is I'm about to take him down.I charge toward him, yelling like a soldier who's about to attack someone. The person turns around and yells and I stop when I find out that it's just my cousin, Rene. She's still screaming and I tell her to shut up. I cover her mouth with my hand. And when she's calm the first thing she does is smack my hand away from her mouth. "Chloe, why are you trying to kill me?" She gasps and puts her hands on her mouth. "is it because I stole two dollars from your purse the last time I visited?"This bitch. "Wait, hold on that was you?" She stays quiet then she giggles."I'm just kidding, I didn't-""It's too late Rene," I say and she immediately apologizes. I sigh and I drop the baseball bat on the ground.

    Chloe"And you forgave him?" Rene asks not caring that there's food in her mouth, even with her mouth full I can tell she has that tone of disbelief. She cannot believe I forgave a guy who had sex with me and ran off the next morning. "Gurl, what if he wants to have sex with you again and then disappear?""No, it's different this time he doesn't want to have sex he just wants to know me better which is what tomorrow's for." I take a slice of pizza and I eat it, my annoying ass cousin is looking at me like I'm crazy, honestly I rather her think I'm crazy than my mom. My mom's going to make a big deal about it like I'm not an adult. "Okay, fine. But once you find out that he only wanted to use you for sex don't come crying to me and don't go blasting sad Taylor Swift songs." She says and I roll my eyes at her. She's so bitchy, one of the things I love about her though.I remember when she made a fool of Ryan Coleman in front of the whole school by accusing him of being his father's mi

We don't hurt people yet these hunters hunt us down and they kill us for nothing. I'll never forget the look on Rose's eyes when she got shot by that hateful hunter. I try my best to forget about that, but it doesn't work no matter how hard I try. I'm in a diner. I'm truly starved, I haven't eaten since the night of the massacre.

I don't blame him though she is beautiful. I just— I don't know why I can't get her off my mind. After leaving her and Nathan I and Ryan went to Jason's house to play video games. My mind wasn't on it at all, my mind was on her. But I don't know why?"Where's your head bro?" Ryan asked when I lost against Jason for the fifth time and I never lose to Jason. "Nothing." I dropped the cursor and I got up. "I'm probably tired." "You sure bro?" "Can't we just be happy that he couldn't beat me for once?" Jason laughed. "No! Because Tye's the king and he's probably tired so don't be too happy," Ryan said and Jason stuck his tongue out for him to see, I giggled and shook my head. My two best friends don't want to grow up, they've been acting like that since we were in kindergarten. "I'll see you

    ChloeIt's been four weeks and it's official, Nathan and I are boyfriend and girlfriend. The first time he called me his girlfriend was when he was in my house and he was drawing me. He's a really good artist, I end up being awestruck by his work. Having an artist for a boyfriend is romantic. He told me he had been doing this since he was a kid and just like me his parents are supportive, it was that kind of support that made him want to do more, just like me but unlike me, a lot of people love his artwork.I sat still on the couch and he got the stool from the kitchen and sat in the middle of the living room. Rene was still in Texas but she wasn't at home, she went out to meet up with an old friend from college. A friend who had been cast in a movie will be going to LA to start filming. Rene was happy with her friend but she lost her confidence. I told her she wasn't going to be a Hollywood star if she was sitting down in my house all day binge-watching Grey's Anatomy. I also got a

Well, Tye and I were awkwardly quiet my parents were busy flirting with each other as always. I looked over at Tye so we could do our secret laugh and tease our parents a little but he didn't look my way, before we came down for breakfast I saw him walk out of the room and I told him hi but he grumbled and continued to walk away without looking at me. At the time I didn't think he was mad about me dating a human, I thought it was his anxiety again, o

But I can hear noises, noises of people in pain, there are so many people in this room I can hear their whimpers all at once. The whimpers and moans are getting louder and louder, I'm getting scared. How did I end up here in the first place? What if whatever that got these people moaning in pain is going to come for me next? I quickly get my phone out of my pocket and I turn on my flashlight. I scream when I see a pile of bodies on top of a pool of blood, there are large scratches on their body, they look like they've been attacked by a bear or a lion or a wolf. This is the most horrifying thing I've ever seen in my life. I'm about to cry for these poor people.I hear someone moan for help. I look to my left and I see a teenage boy covered in blood trying to get up, I run to him and I hold him in his hand, seeing him like this breaks my heart, who or what could have done this?

I legit thought he was going to disown me but then when I saw his smile I remembered that that's not my dad, disowning his kids for making mistakes or protecting their friends even though their friends are vampires isn't what my father stands for.

    CHLOEThe room is quiet, and my mom and I are looking at Ms. Minnie frighteningly. She doesn't care, she still holds that creepy grin on her face like she didn't just tell us that she was the one behind everything. Like she didn't just confess to controlling me. No, she didn't confess she just came here and said it like it's something she does to me during my free time like it didn't matter to her. I knew there was something strange about this woman but I didn't know she was a witch, a deranged one. Who would have guessed that a nice woman would be a witch?And her cat is creepier than she is.

    CHLOETy couldn't stop speeding and we almost hit two cars because of it. They lay insults on us but we don't care, all we want to do is get to Rene. We're finally at Monet's and as soon as Ty stops the car I run out and I head toward Monet's, hoping and praying Rene might still be here. I get inside and I look around for her but I don't see her. Mr. Creep is still here though so I make my way toward him. I slam the table with my hand which makes him and everyone close to us flinch. He was startled indeed. I didn't mean to do that I'm just not in the right headspace at the moment. My cousin is missing and she might be in grave danger. "Where is she?" I ask him and he looks at me, confusion fills his face. "Where's who?""Rene, where's Rene?" "I. . . I don't know she left right after you left." "Did she say where she was going?" He does this questioning look like he's thinking about it. Why is he thinking about it? It's either he knows where she went or not. "She was on the phone

    CHLOEI can't believe what I'm hearing, this can't be happening, this man can't be serious. What does he mean by what he just said? He looks dead ass serious though. How could I have been a werewolf this whole time? That's just absurd. This man is wrong, he might look serious but he's wrong. "How can I be a werewolf when I've never experienced any werewolf-like abilities before now?""Yeah! You're wrong sir!" Rene backs me up. The man sighs he's acting like we're the ones that are crazy. We're not crazy, he is. "Didn't you hear that I said? grey Werewolves are different than ordinary werewolves" we're quiet. "let me tell you the story of what really happened. Minerva Reeves was the most powerful witch that ever lived, the supernatural world knew that but humans didn't. And we all know what humans thought about witches back in the day, if you were known to be a witch you'd be killed. But in Minerva's case, everyone knew she couldn't be killed because of how powerful she was. She was

    ChloeRene and I struggle to put my mom down on my bed, she's so drunk right now. You know she's really drunk once she starts talking about how she always wanted to see Michael Jackson naked. Which is a disgusting thing to hear your mother say. I feel relieved when I notice that she's out like a light. She's already snoring. Great, now I have to share a bed with her. But will I be able to sleep? After what that creeper told me?The grey wolf. Now, what did he mean by that? I'm going to be meeting him tomorrow and he better not waste my time if he does I'll rip his head off of his body. Rene and I tiptoe out of the room and we quietly shut the door. We then sit on the couch laying our backs on it. Trying to get my mother out of the club was hard but getting her up the stairs was harder. I can't believe we're not mad drunk like mom is right now. And wow, this couch is more comfortable than the old one. Maybe Rene should sleep in my room with my mom while I sleep here. "How did we g

    TYRONE"Chloe is beautiful, no doubt about that," Chris says as he takes a sip from his glass. I've seemed to have forgotten what I really came here for. All I'm doing right now is having a beer with this man and staring at Chloe as she has fun. Chris is right though, Chloe is beautiful. I know I'm a cunt for saying this, but I wish I met her first. Why does my brother always have to be the first to meet all these beautiful women? Right now people are going on stage and talking about how lovely, and beautiful Chloe is. So far this party has been entertaining. But it's either I'm here or I'm at home where it's quiet and empty even if there are three people in the home, that's if I don't count Roberta the maid. My brother's death has changed us. I'd like to think my parents are still grieving and they'll be back to their normal selves in no time. The one I'm worried about the most is my dad.

    CHLOEMy mom loves spending money on me. Back then I was used to it, but t I decided to be independent by finding a job, and that's how I ended up at Monet's. Before, I would normally not allow my mom to spend any money, but since it's my birthday and she insisted, who am I to complain? I bought a lot of outfits with my mom's credit card. The clothes aren't what I usually buy, even my mom was confused as to why I decided to start buying dark edgier clothes all of a sudden. I didn't even notice what I was buying until my mom pointed it out. I was confused at first but when I looked at all the things I bought, they weren't like the clothes I usually used to buy. My type of clothes was light and all sunshine. That's why Rene teases me about looking like a Disney princess. I never liked the idea of a leather jacket but I suddenly felt the urge to buy one. When my mom asked me why I love edgy outfits all of a sudden I told her that I wanted a new look, and she didn't question it Rene wa

    CHLOE"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Chloe, happy birthday to you." I should be confused as to why I'm hearing two voices but I'm not. My mom loves making surprise appearances and here she is looking beautiful and annoying as always, with her short blonde hair and big blue eyes, just like me. I remember times when people would ask if we were sisters, and by people I mean men and they'd make her blush but they'd make me mad. I love my mom but she can be embarrassing at times. There was a time I played a tree in our school play Wicked. And of course Rene was Dorothy. My mom was letting everyone in the audience know that her girls were on stage. "My daughter's the tree!" She yelled and the parents only smiled. I was so embarrassed cause it gave Santana Ruiz an opportunity to make fun of me, Rene defended me of course. She always has my back. Despite my mom's craziness my mom has my back too. I'm sure she misses my dad, I do. "Hello mom." I get up

I look at the digital alarm clock. "It's two am." "I know honey, I'm sorry to wake you but this is important." I groan and I sit up straight. "Come meet us in the living room, your father's there with Mrs. Lorenzo, her husband's here too. Now I'm awake. Mrs. Lorenzo? What is she doing here? And what could she possibly want? I did see her at the funeral. I saw her weirdly looking at Rene, maybe she wasn't looking at Rene, maybe she was looking at Chloe. That's why she's here, she knows Chloe wasn't born a wolf. The nerve of this woman, it's not been days since they buried my brother and she wants to add more problems. I jump out of bed and I head toward the living room. There they are, and from the looks on their faces, she has already told them, I'm in big trouble. I was Nathan's accomplice, and I didn't
