Selene's POVJoy was the first to wake up and nudged at me with confusion and disbelief in her eyes."What is happening? How were we left to sleep all we wanted, and someone even came in here and took away the alarm so we could sleep to our "How were we left to sleep all we wanted, and someone even came in here and took away the alarm so we could sleep to our hearts' content?" She gasped, staring at me with widened eyes, and I quickly sat up, darting my eyes at the clock."What?" I shuddered in shock. It was past 1 p.m."Who took away the alarm and why?" I asked rhetorically, knowing that neither of us has the answer to that, but we both know that it can never be for good after all that happened last night."Selene, I think we are in danger. What if Luna had reported me? Remember, she knows everything that we did. How did she even find out? And my mother...." She screeched the last part, burying her face into her palm in distress."Luna is the real enemy, and we have to find a way to
"Fearful boy!" I laughed scornfully "I thought you just said you'd beat him till he passed out!" I mocked him as his face turned red and he growled harder."I will kill you!" He fumed, and before I could say anything, his strong palm struck my cheek in a resounding slap that almost blinded me. The pain stung so painfully that it was as if thousands of needles were pierced into my cheek. My hands were tied, and I could rub them to ease the pain, making it hurt really bad."Untie me, asshole!" I shrieked, gritting my teeth and breathing heavily as I tried not to cry, but the pain was burning."Who is that guy? What is his name, and where does he live? Who is he to you? And how did he suddenly appear that day? Tell me everything about him now!" He barked at me, his saliva splattering on my face and irritating the snot out of me."I don't know him. You saw his face. Go search for him yourself!" I huffed, exasperated, as I stared at his face. With the fury burning in me, I swear that if I
I couldn't say anything; my lips were sealed, and I could feel my heart racing in shock and disbelief. How was he able to find out my deepest secret? And can I trust him to help me achieve this?"You have to trust me. At this point, we both have to trust each other because we really need each other's help in having that which our hearts long for. Diana, we have to be in a closer relationship at this point. " He spoke in a calm tone, which betrays his evil aura and demonic scent.I flinched when he called me by my real name, Diana, and I gave him a narrow gaze."Why call me that name? Besides, why did you tell me to change my name? You are keeping a lot of secrets from me and you want a closer relationship and trust? You must be a prick!" I scoffed, slumping on the chair as I kept a stern gaze at him. He laughed briefly, his lips curling up into a smirk and those eyes glinting with emotions and secrets I couldn't even read no matter how hard I tried."We are different. I am the demon
"Don't suffocate me, babe," I teased under her arms, and she quickly released me, her eyes full of tears, which she kept drying with her palm as those pretty innocent eyes fell on me.I sat up with her help, leaning on the wall. She gently brushed aside the astrayed strands of hair covering my face; her face beamed with excitement. "I was so scared." She moaned, caressing my cheek as more tears fell from her eyes.I was weak, and my breath was shallow. I was also feeling a painful headache hitting my skull hard, but I kept a smiling face, feigning to be all fine, so she would have no reason to panic."Joy, how long was I unconscious?" I asked calmly, and she threw a quick glance at the clock, sighing as she turned back at me."It's midnight now. You've been out for almost six hours. That asshole hurt you badly with the slave mark. A wicked soul like him should be skinned alive!" She seethed, holding my palm gently, concern and care brimming in her eyes as they scrutinized my body. "D
Selene's POV My eyes fluttered open as I sprang from the bed after a full bucket of cold water splashed on me.My sharp shout from shock echoed through the room as I felt chilled, the water drenching my entire body."What is the time?! And you're still on the bed!!" Sophia's angry voice bashed into my head, and I couldn't even get a few seconds to process everything as a painful slap from her struck my cheek so hard that my face snapped to the right, and I almost stumbled and fell."It's our first day of school, and you want me to be late?" She yelled again while I held onto the wooden edge of the bed, wincing as I fought back my tears, which wouldn't stop spilling from the burning ache in my cheek where she slapped."Will you go and get dressed now before I break your empty head?" She blasted at me again, and I raised my head, facing her with heavy breath as my tears rolled down freely.I could see her already dressed in her pretty well-fitting school uniform, which was a white coll
"Please introduce yourselves to the class; they must be very eager to know more about you both." The teacher's face was all smiles as she coaxed them gently with respect.She said both as if I weren't in existence there, and I loved it that way, saving me from the shame of introducing myself in front of the students when I'm dressed like a street beggar. All I hoped for was that Callen and his sister won't be so wicked as to tell the entire class of my mother's abominable act because if the students find out I had link with the vampires, they were going to make me regret ever being alive."My name is Callen, my sister is Sophia, and most importantly, our father is Alpha Logan, the owner of this school." He began, his voice cocky and reeking with so much pride that I almost scoffed in disgust. Does he need someone to remind him that his father is no where close to owning this school? How has he suddenly forgot about the Lycan king or did he deliberately decides to be an ignorant assh
"Beat her to stupor!" Sophia commanded like she was a queen talking to her subjects, and that was just how it seemed because I could see the group of muscular boys sitting at the back coming for me.The fatty, chubby-cheeked guy who called me a dirty thing earlier was their leader as they left their seats and attacked me while Sophia and some girls tried to help Callen up while he groaned in pain."Don't dare touch me!" I yelled at them, but none of them listened. They caught a hold of me before I could think of running. The door of the classroom was closed at that moment as three boys held my hands. It started with slaps from two different angles on both of my cheeks, then I was swept off my feet and landed heavily on my buttocks.They were ready to beat me up, but luckily for me, a voice they feared and respected broke in just at that moment. I heard the murmurs of some of them and knew the man was the school superintendent. He came with a few security men. "What do you all think y
Sophia's POVI was lost, transfixed in a daze, the moment this young man walked into the class. It was as if my heart had been snatched away. Every part of him was calling on me, and at that moment, I knew I had found the man my heart longed for.He was so cute and had that capturing aura, which forced everyone's attention on him. I wasn't expecting such an angel in this school, and adding that he was the nephew of the school principal made him more admirable.I instantly fell in love at first sight and vowed in my heart to do everything to make him mine, which I was so sure wouldn't be a hard task as no man could resist me. We would make a perfect couple. A perfect match that everyone would only wish for and dream of.When I heard he doesn't have a desk yet, I felt a pump of excitement as my face beamed in a bright smile while I rested my gaze at him. He was going to be my seat-mate.The superintendent told us he would be sitting with anyone of his choice, and that sounded like he wa
