Corrine

I was pretty sure there was a sledgehammer slamming into my head repeatedly because, damn, an incredible pain welcomed me as I opened my eyes. I groped in the darkness and groaned as a sharp sting in my thigh fully woke me up.

Where am I? What happened? Am I dead already?

I tried to move my legs, but something restrained my knees from moving. I squinted in that direction and found Andrew sitting near my feet. His hands were on my bare knees.

Wait a minute.

I was wearing pants when I left. Why are my knees uncovered now?

“Don’t move too much,” Andrew’s voice sounded like a low growl. “You’re injured.”

The first thing I wanted to do was find something to cover my legs because, for fuck’s sake, I was half-naked in front of a boy I had only met three times. The only boy who had ever seen me in panties was Daniel, and I wasn’t the one-night-stand type of girl. So being in this situation made me incredibly uncomfortable.

It seemed Andrew realized my discomfort. He moved, and I saw h

    -Corrine-Was it wrong to miss someone you don’t have a relationship with?From our last meeting and the agreement between us, I thought there would be a second date with Andrew soon. But it’s been almost a month since the incident at Mythic Manor, and I haven’t heard anything from him.That night, I didn’t ask for his phone number. I was too excited about the idea that we would meet again and assumed it would happen soon. Turned out, I was wrong.On the other hand, Andrew’s absence brought back Eva’s cheerfulness and her kind attitude towards me. She no longer let me eat alone in Houghton Commons and always said goodbye whenever she left our room.A part of me was tempted to secretly take Eva’s phone and look for Andrew’s number, but the more sensible side of me prevented me from doing so and surrendered our next meeting to The Moon Goddess.We were walking towards the dorm after spending the afternoon at the library working on assignments.“Who is he?” Eva whispered to me. I, who was

    -Corrine-His sudden presence paralyzed all my senses. I could only stand there at the doorway, my breath caught.“You?” My voice felt strange as if it didn’t come from me. “What are you doing here?”It was just a casual question to conceal the jumble of emotions in my heart. It felt like someone had just burst a balloon and poured a bucket of icy water over my head. I was paralyzed but felt relieved. My anger towards Jerome was extinguished as easily as a candle blown by the cool night wind. The night wind in the form of Andrew.“Are you crying?” He repeated his question, ignoring mine. The tension in his jaw and the sharpness in his eyes showed that the question had only one purpose: that he cared about what happened to me.Or maybe I hoped so.One second, that’s all I had to decide whether to lie or tell the truth.“Yes.”“Who made you cry? Your ex?”He gave me the idea to lie. Although I had been honest with my first answer, I didn’t want to explain about Jerome and his obsession

    -Corrine-My knees trembled, and my legs felt weak. My strength vanished, and my entire body couldn’t move as the Lycan stared at me. My stomach churned as I saw Rodd’s lifeless body on the ground. Blood spattered around.He was dead.I thought Jerome’s warning was just a bluff, but he was right. The Lycan was roaming here, and he killed Rodd. He killed a member of our pack.That meant he’d kill me, too.The Lycan held something in his hand. Rodd’s heart.My stomach twisted.The Lycan growled, and his growl snapped me back to reality. I turned around and ran with all my might. I wasn’t sure if I could escape because the Lycan was undoubtedly faster than me, but I wouldn’t let myself die without a fight.I almost stumbled when I turned out of the community house complex. My breath was heavy, and my lungs were on the verge of exploding. Exhaustion and fear blended into one. My head started spinning, and my vision blurred. My mouth moved, whispering words of help without daring to shout

    - Corrine -It was Kasey.She was with her new friends, giggling as Kasey pushed my face deeper into the floor. I tried to break free from her, but she grabbed my hair instead, lifted me, and threw me against the door of the toilet cubicle.I braced for the impact with my hands, but it was too late. My face hit the door, and I felt an excruciating pain in my nose and lips.I wiped my nose and found my hands adorned with blood.“Does Trevor know you come to places like this?” Kasey’s voice, one I knew all too well, mixed with a buzzing sound in my ears.I turned around and found her standing not far from me. Her friends leaned against the wall, two sitting on the sink counter. They observed us as if we were putting on an interesting show.“What do you want, Kasey?” My voice was nasal due to my cracked nose. It took a few minutes for my healing abilities to kick in, and I had to get Kasey out of my face before she noticed something odd about me.“Nothing.” Her long earrings swayed as sh

    -Corrine-With my chin lifted and back straight, I stepped out of the bathroom. My eyes couldn’t stop searching for Andrew’s presence, but my determination forced me to think about something else—anything to divert my attention from him.I followed Eva to the bar and ordered a bottle of beer. “It’s on the house!” the bartender exclaimed, winking at me. I responded with a half-smile, and as I shifted my gaze to Eva, she grinned.“See? You can catch any guy’s attention,” she teased.We took sips from our respective bottles, and I felt relieved that there was no dreadful headache attacking me like when I drank at Mythic Manor. That place was not for me. Neither was Andrew.Damn. I thought about him again.The hum of the microphone drew my attention to the stage, and I saw someone standing there. Everyone cheered, waving at him.“Who’s he?” I asked Eva.Eva was sipping her beer and took a moment to swallow before answering my question. “Oh, him? He’s the owner of this place. He often orga

    -Corrine-He lifted me, his lips still attached to mine.I heard the club owner shout dirty remarks about our kiss that made the audience laugh, but both Andrew and I no longer cared about anything.He carried me backstage, or it seemed like it, and withdrew only to catch his breath.We were immersed in something more than just a kiss. I didn’t know what this was, but it was completely different from any intimacy I had ever experienced before.The thumping music echoed again, its sound muffled by the walls of the corridor trapping us. Andrew leaned my back against the wall. My legs circled his waist as if my life depended on him.His figure looked dark and dangerous under the dim purple neon lights. He smirked as he broke the kiss and stared at me, leaving me breathless.“Is that long enough?” he asked in a voice that sent shivers through my stomach.Without needing to look in the mirror, I knew my lips were swollen, and my face was flushed. My eyes couldn’t look away from him, and I

    -Corrine-After uttering those dreadful words, they discussed some other things that I didn’t understand. However, I could deduce that these people were not part of Andrew’s pack, if he had one. They were on equal footing. Several times, mentions of Lycans came up, and it reminded me of my encounter with a Lycan. How its hand pierced Rodd’s chest and pulled his heart.My knees instantly weakened, and my hands trembled as I re-buttoned my blouse.“Corrine?”I jolted and held my breath. My fear-filled mind made me unaware of Andrew’s presence.“You okay? What happened?”He walked closer and extended his hand, but I pushed it away.A glimpse of his eyes showed he knew what was going on. He knew I eavesdropped on their conversation, hearing things I shouldn’t have heard.My heart pounded. Was he going to kill me?“We should go back,” I said, trying to sound composed. “Eva must be looking for me.”“She will understand.”“But today is her birthday. I can’t just leave her.” Then I patted the

    -Corrine-My heart raced faster. Initially, I thought it was because I was afraid of Andrew or the answer he might give, but then something within me surged, and I realized something was wrong. Then I heard a voice in my head. Soft growls and purrs. My wolf.My eyes widened, remembering that my birthday was approaching. My wolf could emerge at any time now. There were cases where human-wolf shifters appeared a few days before their birthday.I had to call Trevor. And when he came, he must not see me with Andrew.“I have to go,” I said, no longer caring about Andrew’s response.Andrew frowned and grabbed my hand as I tried to walk away. “I’ll take you back.”I jerked my hand, asking him to let go. “No. I can go back on my own.”Before he could hold me again, I ran as fast as I could. I felt relieved and a bit sad when he didn’t chase after me.*The next day, I woke up with a slight headache and an aching body. Last night, I called Trevor, and he asked me to update him every five minut

    -Corrine-When I said that almost all of my problems were solved, this was the one that remained unresolved. I didn’t know why my mother suddenly wanted to meet me and Andrew after everything she had said and done to us, but I hoped this was a good sign.For everyone’s safety and comfort, we didn’t meet at Moon Dust or Andrew’s mansion, but instead in Golden Valley.Andrew and I arrived first and headed straight to Houghton Commons. We chose a quiet spot outside, near a large shady tree. The weather was quite windy today, so most people preferred to sit indoors.I pulled my jacket tighter around me and waited, occasionally glancing toward the entrance.“You seem nervous,” Andrew said. I turned to him and frowned, trying to see his eyes behind the sunglasses he was wearing.“Are you not?”“Why should I be? She’s your mother, not mine.”“Right. But she’s going to talk to us, not just me. You still remember how much she hated you—so much that she even worked with Jerome to—”The distant

  • I'm Not Supposed To Fall For The Lycan   A Peaceful Morning

    -Corrine-The next morning, when I opened the window and looked at the clear blue sky, I still couldn’t believe that it was all over.All of my problems were solved—well, most of them—but the danger had passed, and I could finally live in peace.I stretched out my hands and inhaled the fresh scent of the trees, closing my eyes and letting my body soak in the warm sunlight.I smiled, and my smile turned into a wide grin when I felt Andrew behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing the crook of my neck.“Morning,” he whispered in my ear before giving it a soft bite.I rested my head against him. “Morning.” My voice was hoarse. I closed my eyes and took in the scent of his shampoo lingering in his messy hair. “Did you finish your business yesterday?”Last night, after dropping me off at the mansion, Andrew had left to return to the forest. He wanted to make sure everything was truly settled, including mobilizing the lycans to search for Gary’s body. Andrew wanted to see wit

    -Corrine-Something held my foot. My body jerked, suddenly stopping mid-fall before swinging in the air.“Corrine! Hang on!”I tried to look up and saw Andrew. As much as I was relieved that he had found me, we were still in danger.Andrew’s hand gripped my ankle tightly. He was using all his strength to pull me up. There was nothing I could do except stay still and let him try to save me.Relief washed over me like cold water, bringing down my adrenaline as Andrew successfully pulled me to safety. He immediately hugged me, repeatedly calling my name.“I’m sorry, Corrine. I’m sorry, baby, I’m late.” His face was buried in my hair, and his lips pressed kisses against my ear and cheek.With trembling hands, I cupped his face and looked into his eyes. “You’re not late.” I smiled weakly. “You saved me.”We stared at each other in silence for a few moments before both of us burst into laughter. Laughter that born from the lingering fear of facing death and the joy of having survived it.“I

    -Corrine-Something happened.Suddenly, the moon shone so brightly that its light blinded both of us. I squeezed my eyes shut, and I heard Gary scream in pain.The next thing I knew, he was no longer on top of me, and I was able to move my body. It was as if the potion’s effect had completely worn off.I opened my eyes and scanned my surroundings, and then, from the corner of my eye, I saw something—a glowing white wolf across the ravine. Even though we were separated by darkness and distance, I could feel its gaze on me.Use your power.I was stunned to hear an unfamiliar yet soothing voice in my head—a female voice.Was she—?I blinked, and the wolf was gone.“Shit! Shit!”My attention snapped back to Gary. He was rolling on the grass as if he was attacked by some invisible creatures.For a moment, I just stood there, watching him writhe in agony. Faintly, I heard that voice again, and I immediately shifted. This was the power she meant—my wolf. I would fight until the last drop of

    -Corrine-As soon as the liquid spilled into my mouth, my body burned in agony. A white-hot pain shot through my throat, and my vision temporarily went blind. I could feel my body shaking violently as Gary’s sinister voice whispered in my ear.“How does it feel, Corrine? I hope you can bear the pain because I need you alive.”I could feel the liquid flowing down into my stomach, and an unbearable pain surged through me, forcing a pained groan from my lips. Then I felt it… and it seemed Gary knew it, too.“It works.” He flashed me his wicked grin. “The mark Andrew gave you. The scent he left on you… it’s all gone.”“No.”“Yes!” Gary pressed my shoulders into the ground while sitting upright on top of me. “I will mark you now, Corrine. You will be mine, and nothing can separate us.”My body weakened again, and I teetered on the edge of despair as I struggled against Gary. Everything seemed to move in slow motion as he bent down, pressing his lips to the crook of my neck. He was going to

    -Andrew-I didn’t know what had happened, but not long after the rogue attack that disrupted the Alpha Moon Dust’s decisive battle, the rogues suddenly withdrew as if they had been defeated.The Moon Dust warriors lined up at the border of the territory, waiting and watching the darkness with ragged breaths and bodies covered in wounds.“It looks like they’re not coming back,” said Harry, who was standing beside me.I nodded. “They only came to create chaos.”“Let’s continue the fight.” Harry then signaled to some warriors who hadn’t been involved in the Alpha battle to patrol the borders.That was when I realized something was wrong.“Where’s Corrine?”I turned in all directions, scanning the unfamiliar faces around me—faces that looked back at me with confusion and fear.“Corrine!” I shouted.A bad feeling crept up on me. Something wasn’t right. If Corrine were here, she would have come straight to me the moment the battle ended.Or was she helping someone who was injured?“Corrine!

    -Corrine-As soon as Gary got me, he blindfolded me and dragged me away from the Moon Dust territory. I knew from the deepening silence that we were getting farther away as I felt my body sway in Gary’s embrace.Thank the Moon Goddess, he didn’t harm me or do anything nasty to me. But I was pretty sure he would—sooner or later. He was just waiting for the right place and the right time.“We’re here, Corrine.” His breath tickled my ear, and I desperately wanted to push him away, but somehow, he made my body go limp. The only thing I could do now was breathe.Slowly, Gary removed the blindfold from my eyes. I blinked a few times, adjusting my vision so I could see my surroundings more clearly.We were now in the middle of a forest. That forest. The one where that stupid glowing plant grew.“Soon, I will change you so we can be together forever. You will become like me.”My eyes darted to Gary, and our gazes locked. He seemed to recognize the question in my head as he said, “Before we ge

    -Corrine-The scream froze everyone in place, and together they looked back and forth between me and Andrew.“You cheated!” accused the teenage girl. “You deliberately distracted us by accepting this fight, and then you had your friends create chaos, didn’t you?!”“No!” I yelled. “I would never use such a cheap trick!”“You are cheap!” the girl shrieked.Rage boiled in my chest. I had been holding back, tolerating her insolent attitude, but I couldn’t take it anymore. I dashed to her and slapped her cheek as hard as I could, making her stagger and nearly fall.“Did your parents not teach you any manners?!”I still wanted to hit her again, but a few people ran toward us and separated us before the fight escalated.“That’s enough, Abby!” shouted Harry, who held the teenage girl back. I remembered her now. Abby. She had always disliked me because Jerome paid more attention to me.“We should have killed her!” screamed Abby as she struggled in Harry’s grip. “She only brings trouble to this

    -Corrine-Believe it or not, the first fight was won by me.I had just defeated one of the strongest warriors in Moon Dust. And it wasn’t just me who was surprised; all the pack’s members who were present there were stunned, watching as Sam was thrown to the ground after I landed a fatal blow to his chest.Harry counted to ten, but he didn’t get up.“The first fight is won by Corrine!” he announced, and only Andrew clapped and cheered.“Five minutes break for you, Corrine. After that, you’ll face another candidate,” Harry said then.Sam had returned to his human form—he was still breathing, thank the Moon Goddess—and some people pulled him out of the arena.I walked over to Andrew at the edge of the arena. He unfolded a robe for me, and quickly wrapped it around me the moment I turned back into my human form.“That was awesome, babe,” he praised, grinning.I returned his grin weakly. He told me to sit down, then handed me a bottle of water, which I chugged in one go.“He was a tough o
