-Corrine-

What the hell?

“I don’t think—“

“I agree,” Dad interjected. “Someone has to protect Corrine while she’s in Golden Valley.” Then Dad turned to me. “If you want to continue your studies, you have to accept this decision, Corrine. It’s the best path we can offer you.”

“What if I refuse?” I asked.

“Then there will be no more studies. You have to leave Golden Valley and come back here.”

“Training to be a warrior isn’t a bad idea,” Mom added. “You have talent, dear. Like Trevor.”

My jaw clenched, and my eyes shot a sharp look at Jerome. How dare he smile at me after the suggestion he made? He knew I hated him, so he did it deliberately.

You cannot run from me, Corrine.

I jerked at the sound of Jerome’s voice in my head. Then I remembered our minds were connected after my wolf appeared. He could invade my thoughts and say things I didn’t want to hear.

I have to learn to block his voice.

“Well then,” Jerome said, redirecting his gaze away from me. “We will patrol. Be on the lookout

    -Corrine-My breath caught. My whole body tensed. Yet, I didn’t feel afraid.Instead, I felt a strong pull to approach him, to touch him. Even though I tried to resist that urge, my wolf howled with anguish in my head. Then I felt my muscles stretching and my spine cracking.My wolf forced her way out to take over my body so she could reach her mate.I threw the blanket aside, intending to confront the Lycan. But when the blanket obstructed my view, the Lycan disappeared.I sat at the edge of the bed, blinked my eyes, and then looked around, searching for the presence of the Lycan. He was nowhere to be found.Had I just dreamed it?Then, as if answering my question, my bedroom window swung gently. Raindrops entered and soaked a patch of the bedroom floor.I walked towards the window and opened it, peering out, but found nothing out there except trees and a row of houses.*“I’ll be staying near the campus. Just a ten-minute walk. The location is right across the university complex.” T

    “Okay. Could you repeat our plan?” I said to Eva after she finished getting ready.Eva combed the ends of her wavy hair with her fingers while looking up at the ceiling, perhaps recalling the plan we had laid out yesterday. Then she opened her mouth, took a breath, and said, “Are you sure about this, Corrine?” squinting her eyes and smiling hesitantly.I sighed, reaching out my hands to hold hers. “You like him, don’t you? I could see it in your eyes, and I’m sure Trevor is into you, too!”Eva shook her head. “That’s not what I mean.” She grinned. “Thanks, though.”“I’m just going to visit Andrew’s house for a moment. There’s something important I need to confirm to him. Your job is just to keep an eye on Trevor for me. Make sure you two spend some time together until I get back to the dorms.”While planning this, I just found out that Andrew

    -Corrine-I jerked and completely hid myself behind the trees, but I was pretty sure the man had seen me. My wolf growled, urging me to shift and confront them, but I wasn’t sure if I could defeat them. Who were they, and what were they doing at Andrew’s house? Or did I come to the wrong house?While catching my breath, I tried to think. My best chance was to escape. I could see the main gate from where I stood, but would I be fast enough to run there and avoid getting caught?My mind was overwhelmed by various scenarios until I heard someone’s voice from the direction of the house, loud enough for everyone in the yard to hear. “You forgot something!” shouted a woman’s voice. “Mr. Ashbridge has prepared lunch. Didn’t he ask you all to have lunch here after the meeting?”Then I heard footsteps moving away, accompanied by fading conversation murmurs. I intended to peek to see if those peopl

    -Corrine-I could feel his hot breath burning in my skin. His fingertips caressed every sensitive spot in my body. Slowly yet mercilessly, Andrew lowered my bra strap to mid-arm. Then he slid his fingers under my bra, stopping right below the curve of my bosom.He was torturing me. It was showed in the way he looked at me, and how his lips crooked a teasing smile.“I’m waiting for another question, Corrine,” he said with a low growl.I cleared my throat. Fuck! How could I even ask a single question if he kept sparking and playing with my lust like this??“I—uh—“ As I started to speak, he snapped back into action.He now placed his hand on the top of my breast, caressing the hardened peak with the tip of his finger. I could no longer avoid the breathy moan from escaping my lips. My toes curled when I couldn’t hold back the sensation overflowing within me.“I what, Corr

    -Corrine-I exchanged glances with Eva.Crap. I hadn’t considered the issue of Andrew’s shirt and my wet hair from the rain.Could Trevor smell Andrew’s scent on the shirt I was wearing? Or did his scent linger on me?“It’s my shirt!” exclaimed Eva as she walked to the other side of the chair and faced Trevor. “This is a shirt sold by the university football team. I bought it, and Corrine wanted it, so I lent it to her until she could buy a new one.”I glanced down at the shirt I was wearing. That’s when I realized it was a Golden Valley football team shirt. “Yeah, right,” I said then, nodding firmly. “I borrowed it from Eva.” Then I raised my hand to touch my hair. “And I just took a shower. I needed to clear my mind so I could work on all these assignments.”Trevor fell silent, observing me and Eva in turn.I knew he wasn’t easily convinced, and I could clearly see that now from his expression.My heart was pounding. Its voice sounded loud in my ears, almost deafening me.“You shoul

    What the fuck did this bitch say just now?Giving her virginity to Andrew?I didn’t know why but I felt so furious I wanted to rip her head apart. My wolf growled in my head and I saw red. And thank the Moon Goddess because Eva was there with me and she pressed her hand on my shoulder, snapping me back into reality.“You okay?” she asked.I blinked and slowly dragged my gaze to her. “What?”“You look—“ she glanced toward the girls in front of us, “—angry.”The sound of a whistle made all of us turn to the field. Then I looked at Andrew, who was now observing the candidates along with the coach.I no longer heard the angry growl inside my head. My wolf calmed down again, as did my heart. I didn’t know who was influencing whom, but it was clear that this wasn’t good for both of us.If only Eva hadn’t been with me earlier, I would have surely ended up in jail for killing a girl.“I’m not,” I said, shrugging, trying to act indifferent. “Just a little annoyed.

    -Corrine-My heart leaped, and my eyes bulged in horror. But Andrew remained calm. He even tried to kiss me again despite the roar outside, and he almost successfully killed my fear with his lips.“Stop it,” I hissed and yanked his face off mine. “We’ve got to get out of here.”Andrew pouted. “Just let them be.”“Open the fucking door!” the man outside yelled and I felt a shiver run down my spine as he tried to break down the door.“I don’t want to get in trouble,” I panicked in a whisper.He looked up at me. His eyes twitched like he was trying to understand me. “But I love trouble,” he mumbled. “And I thought you loved it, too. You looked like an adrenaline junkie.”“Correct. I am an adrenaline junkie.” I nodded. “But not like this.”“Ooh, you are?”This conversation was torturing me and I heard the man outside asking someone to open the other door and told some people to break down the door I was leaning against.But there was no sign that Andrew would let me go.“Yes, I am,” I his

    -Corrine-“What? Who said that?” I didn’t mean to snap at Emily, but emotions got the better of me and I unconsciously let my anger slip out.Emily frowned slightly. “All of our high school friends know about it,” she said, sounding more careful this time. “I don’t know who said it first, but now all our friends know that you’re trying to get Andrew’s attention when he doesn’t care about you.”I leaned back and took a deep breath while lifting my chin. I wanted to say that not only did Andrew care about me; he was my mate. He wanted me. And I witnessed with my own eyes how Andrew rejected Kasey when she tried to seduce him at the club.I almost exploded in Emily’s face, but then I realized there was a better way to show them all what my relationship with Andrew was really like.“I think I’ve changed my mind,” I said later, giving her the sweetest smile possible. “I’ll come to your birthday party.”Emily’s worried face immediately brightened. She clapped her hands and squeaked, “Really

    -Andrew-Bent dropped me back at Trevor’s house before noon, and honestly, I was a bit disappointed that no one was waiting for my arrival there. I expected Corrine to greet me and cry in my arms, worrying about me. What a stupid thought. After making sure there was nothing suspicious, no sign of an attack or anything dangerous, I walked to Golden Valley. Maybe Corrine was on campus, going to classes as usual, and she’d probably nag me when we met later. At first, I thought about contacting her through the mind link, but I decided against it. I would wait for her at Houghton Commons while having brunch. I reached into my pocket, glanced at my phone, which was dead because the battery had run out, and then put it back. For some reason, the weather today felt unbearably scorched, and it made me annoyed. My frustration grew when I found Houghton Commons crowded, and I could feel curious stares from the students there. Some of them whispered while glancing at me. Girls I didn’t know

    -Andrew-The rogue attack forced all the werewolves out of their homes. I had no choice but to join the chaos. Along with the Moon Dust pack, I attacked and tried to drive the rogues away.“There are so fucking many of them!” Bent shouted amidst our fierce battle with several rogues. We were trying to stop them from destroying the houses in the territory.Bent was right. The waves of rogue attacks seemed endless, and I was almost certain this fight would never end.Then, just as I finished thinking that, suddenly all the rogues ran away as if someone had commanded them to retreat and disappear into the darkness.“What the fuck?” I muttered as I shifted back to my human form.I kept observing the forest behind the settlement, trying to spot any sign of them. But they had vanished, swallowed by the night.Not long after, Harry came up to me. His hands and face were stained with blood, but I couldn’t tell if it was his or the enemy’s.“You better go,” he said.Instead of obeying his comma

    -Andrew-I saw Harry’s Adam’s apple move nervously as he swallowed. His eyes flickered, assessing the situation for a few seconds before he said, “Please arrest them.”My grin grew wider.I walked across the front yard of the Alpha’s house, my eyes locked on the three teenage girls still trying to run from me. They shifted midway, and that’s when I was sure they were the werewolves responsible for the attack and terrorizing Corrine.I recognized their wolves and remembered their scents. Rotten, like garbage.My steps quickened until I broke into a run and shifted. With one big leap, I soared through the air, jumping over the three wolves and landing right in front of them.The sound of their frightened and shocked howl was music to my ears as they realized I had caught up to them.I tilted my head and narrowed my eyes. “Going somewhere?”They stood their ground and growled, then, one by one, crouched on their hind legs and leaped at me. Honestly, when I knew the culprits behind the at

    -Andrew-Bent arrived just as I reached the end of the street. He pulled over and greeted me as I got in, and the car smoothly glided back into the night.“Where to?” he asked.“Moon Dust,” I replied. “They need a little reminder not to mess with my girl.”Bent had known me long enough to understand when to ask further questions and when to stay silent. Though he often acted tough towards me, he still respected me and knew his boundaries.The empty streets made the drive to Wesgrove faster than usual. The car turned into Moon Dust territory. There were two warriors standing guard at the entrance. Now that the war between us was over, they didn’t need to be overly vigilant. Our threat was now the same: the rogues. But compared to the lycans, the werewolves were more vulnerable to rogue attacks.The two warriors stood still as they saw me and Bent. They didn’t greet us, but they didn’t block our way either.I told Bent to stop the car beside them, then I rolled down the window.“Who’s i

    -Corrine-No way.I almost screamed out Eva’s name, but I realized I was in the middle of a sorority house complex. Even the slightest commotion would draw people out, and they would see two giant werewolves, a young woman who might be dead, and me.My heart was pounding so hard it made my ears ringing.One of the werewolves growled at me and started to walk closer. Under the streetlight, I saw the flash of its fur. Reddish-brown. The same color as the fur of the werewolf that killed Daniel.I was too stunned to know what to do. In this situation, I remembered Andrew’s words about me not being able to take care of myself. It seemed he was right.This wasn’t because I was incapable, but the image of Jerome’s death—his blood on my hands—was still haunting me in my subconscious.The werewolf was now charging at me with its jaws wide open. It moved so fast that at that moment; I was sure I would be torn apart by its sharp teeth.“Corrine!”Trevor’s shout startled me, and only then did I c

    -Corrine-“Hotel room, my ass!”My argument with Andrew made me forget about Trevor’s presence. Apparently, he had finished talking to the tow truck driver and was now listening to our conversation.Trevor put his arm around me while glaring at Andrew. “If she doesn’t want to stay with you, then she stays with me. Period.”“No can do,” Andrew shook his head. “She’s with me.”“She’s my sister!”“And she’s my mate.”“Fu—” Andrew then turned to me. “Tell me, my sweet, pretty little sister. Who do you want to stay with? I bet you’d choose me—”“I want to stay in the dorm.”I took this middle ground because if I chose one of them, the other wouldn’t stop complaining and pressuring me to change my choice.“I’m a werewolf, in case you forgot. I can protect myself and—”“No, you can’t,” Andrew cut in. “You didn’t even shift until I reminded you earlier.”“For fuck’s sake, Andrew! I was panicked, okay?! It won’t happen again.” I crossed my arms over my chest and sighed. “And stop making decisi

    -Corrine-I opened the door just as the car’s windshield shattered. The attack separated me from Andrew because we jumped out in different directions.Right after destroying the car, the werewolf turned its attention to me. It bared its sharp teeth and fangs, growling before leaping at me, not giving me a chance to shift.I jumped to the side and rolled on the cold asphalt. As I stopped, lying on my back, the werewolf was already close, opening its jaw wide, ready to bite me.That’s when Andrew arrived—in his lycan form—and struck the werewolf so hard that it was thrown several meters from its original position.Shift,’ he said through our mind link.“I’m fucking trying to,” I grumbled. “It’s not that I don’t want to shift or—”‘Watch out.’My grumbling wasn’t finished when the werewolf got up and charged at us. This time, I successfully shifted. Standing on four legs, I held my ground as the werewolf attacked me, though Andrew didn’t allow it to touch me. He delivered a solid punch t

    -Corrine-I left the box on the bench, but I put the letter in my jacket pocket as evidence. After that, I went back into the convenience store.The clerk inside looked at me, probably wondering why I returned, and I just glanced at her briefly before walking to the refrigerator to grab a cold drink.My hands were shaking as I reached for a drink, and I nearly dropped it. I stood there in front of the fridge, staring blankly.Who was it? Could it be—my mom—oh, by the moon goddess, I couldn’t imagine if it really was my mother.I swallowed, feeling something stuck in my throat, and my breath was heavy as if the air was no longer as light as it should be.“Are you okay?”I jumped and screamed. The bottle slipped from my hand and rolled to the feet of the convenience store clerk. She frowned as she looked at me before bending down to pick up the bottle.As she handed it to me, she repeated her question. “Did something happen? You look pale. Are you sick? Do you need to call someone?”Rig

    -Trevor-Although Corrine had told me that Andrew was loaded, I was still shocked when I arrived at his house—it wasn’t a house; it was a fucking mansion—and even more astounded when I entered his garage.“Fuck you,” I muttered to Andrew, staring at the rows of expensive cars he owned.“Thanks,” Andrew replied casually. It seemed like he was used to getting this kind of reaction.We descended the stairs and headed towards a black sports car near the steps. “What’s the point of having so many cars?” I asked as Andrew opened the hood.Andrew glanced at me and then chuckled.“What?” I asked, frowning. “Something’s wrong with me asking?”“No. It’s just… you sound a lot like Corrine.”“What can I say? We’re siblings.” I shrugged.“Yeah. And I know she cares about you a lot.”A moment of silence. “Was that the reason why you didn’t attack me when my pack captured you that night?”Andrew gave me a glimpse of a meaningful look. “If I hurt you, I’d hurt Corrine. And I don’t want to hurt her.”
