#Chapter 80: Matt Saves the Day

The grip on my arm tightened and a hand went over my mouth, effectively shutting off my scream. The man pulled me to him until I was pinned against him. I struggled as much as I could, but it felt like I was caged in iron. Why didn't I work out more? Or at least take a self-defense class? I'm sure if I asked Jack, he'd be more than happy to sign me up for one.

"Celeste, please stop fighting. I meant it when I said I wasn't going to hurt you. I just want to talk, but we can't do it here. We have to go somewhere where we won't be interrupted," the man said calmly, despite the situation we were in. He was taking me to a second location? Even I knew that was bad. I couldn't let him take me, no matter what I had to do.

  Matt Matt was getting tired of these endless meetings. Meetings meant more attacks. More attacks meant more innocent lives lost. It was like a more gory version of "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie."He would much rather be talking to Rose. While she hadn't ghosted him again, there was definitely something going on. She said she was just busy, but Matt knew her better than that. He wanted to get to the bottom of it, but these meetings were getting in the way. Couldn't the werewolf just take a night off?Matt looked around the room at his friends. They were all armed to the teeth. If he looked close enough, he could see the outlines of their hidden guns and knives. If he hadn't had so much training, he probably wouldn't have seen them at all.They may have been at a slight disadvantage, physically, in their human form, but werewolves could just as easily be killed with a well-placed bullet. The chances of anyone on their side rose exponentially if they duked it out in wolf form.Even when

  Celeste I was ready to go home. Today had been a long day and I honestly didn't want to be at school anymore. All I wanted was to get into my comfortable pajamas and watch cheese romantic comedies. I checked the time on my phone. Jack was late again. And I was, once again, a sitting duck. I glanced around nervously as the world became darker and darker. I could have called Matt, but by the time he got here, I could have already walked home.I would just have to be extra, extra careful. I could do that. All it would take i

• His Secret Princess   #Chapter 83: The Madman

  My head was throbbing. That was the first thing that I noticed. The second thing I noticed was that I was on something soft, but firm. It felt like an old mattress and when I opened my eyes, I saw that I was right.A thin white sheet covered me. It hardly provided me with any warmth in the cold, damp room. I shivered as I sat up, dragging the sheet to my chin as I looked around me. A single hanging bulb hung from the ceiling, illuminating the space in a dim light.The walls were made out of gray stone, water trickling down in fine lines in random places. The floor was cement and I took a small amount of comfort that this was man-made and not some cave in the middl

  I felt like I had been hit in the chest. All of my air went whooshing out of me and I struggled to get it back in. There's no way that he had just said that. There's no way that this man could actually be my father."I know it must come as a shock to you, but I swear on your mother's grave that I am telling you the truth," he said and I could tell that he really believed it. He really believed that he was my father."My father's dead. He died when I was little," I told him automatically, having had to say it my entire life. The familiarity of the phrase helped me calm down. I reminded myself that I was talking to a crazy person. My father was dead. Plain and simpl

  MattMatt leaned against the building wall, his head thrown back to the bricks. He closed his eyes as he tried not to be overwhelmed by the information that they had just received. They had just confirmed that the werewolf from before was back. All the attacks going on around campus were due to the same wolf.Was having one normal year of college too much to ask for? He didn't want to deal with any of this shit. He just wanted to play hockey, hang out with his friends, go to class…and, of course, talk to Rose. And the one person he wanted to confide in, he couldn't because she had no idea that werewolves existed. Much less that he

• His Secret Princess   #Chapter 86: Disobedient Brat

  JackThe one thing that Jack hated more than werewolves was laundry. He hated doing it. He hated sifting through it. He hated putting it away. He wished he had some form of magic that would just do it for him.But he didn't. So here he was, over two hours later, trying to find a specific pair of shorts that he wanted to wear tonight. Jack had torn his room apart, yet he still couldn't find them. Did the washing machine eat them?Or maybe they were in Celeste's room. Due to her baggy clothes, their stuff often got mixed up. Normally he'd ask Celeste to find them, but she wasn't at home at the moment. He'd have to find it himself.He trudged through the mess he had created and went straight into Celeste's room. Compared to his, her room looked like an absolute dream. Everything had a place and he knew for a fact that her closet was just as organized.He shifted through the neatly hung clothes until he found the shorts section. He finally found the pair he was looking for two to three ha

  CelesteI was so nervous. The Masquerade Ball was in about an hour and while I, Celeste, had been banned from going, I, Rose, had not. Jack had already left so I was free to start getting ready.The dress I had picked out was my most daring by far. While I didn't much like the limelight, nobody there would know that I was Celeste. All they would know is that I was Matt's girlfriend. And Matt's girlfriend had to live up to those standards.The dress was blood red, dripping in glittering fake rubies. Gold embroidery swirled around the rubies, looking like magic spells. It had what sta

  Matt Jack ripping off Rose's…no…Celeste's mask had ripped off Matt's as well. As he stared at the girl who had given him so many conflicted feelings, he wondered how he had missed all the signs before. Celeste's scent, one that he was as familiar with as his own, surrounded him. Had he been so blinded by love that he'd failed to recognize it when she was near him? How could he have possibly thought that she was a different person? A muscle ticked in hi
