“Why are you here, Blade?”

"Why are you here?" He asked back.

"That doesn't answer my question." I folded my arms across my chest. "Why are you here?"

"I came here to grab something."

"In the kitchen?" I stared down at the counter and there were now pots on it.

"Yeah…" He scratched the back of his neck, his signature boyish grin staining his face. "I needed some food. I was gonna cook something and leave. Is Brian home?" He glanced at the door.

"No, but.." I immediately regretted saying that when I watched the shimmer in his eyes. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"So no one is at home except us?" He smirked, stepping closer.

"What are you doing?" I frowned, stepping back. When he extended his hand to hold my waist, I flinched away, pointing my knife at him. "If you touch me again, I swear I'll kill you."

A frown formed on his face and he scoffed. "Kill me? Do you hate me that much now? What exactly is so special about Brian? Why are you fighting so hard to stay with him?

    “I can’t believe the semester is drawing to an end already.” I said to myself, shoving my books into my tightly packed book bag, grunting when it wouldn’t go in. “Maybe I can help carry it,” A voice called, and its familiarity made my nose scrunch up. Rolling my eyes, I held the book to my chest and started walking away.“Lyric, wait!” Blade called and when I felt his hand on my arm, I yanked it away, forcing my book to fall on the grass.“Look at what you’ve done!” I snapped. “I– I’m sorry.” He bent down and picked the book up, wiping the sticks, bugs, and dirt with his bare hands. “Here you go.”I grabbed the book from him. Glaring into his eyes, I snapped, “what is it with you? Why are you following me?”“I’m not following you. I just need to talk to you.” “What is it?” I asked, annoyed at first, then sighed, asking in a softer tone, “What do you want?” “I just…” He ran his hand over his face. “I’m really fed up. I spoke to my Uncle and we fought, reconciled, and spoke, he tal

    ~ RAINA ~“Oh, where are you heading to?” Lyric asked, rolling off her bed, her blanket wrapped awfully around her body. She smiled, staring at my skin-tight, mid-thigh red dress. “You look good! Where are you going?” She nudged me. “The bar.” I said. My voice sounded raspy from crying too much, so I sniffled and cleared my throat. “Yeah, I’m going to just…” I shrugged. Her smile left and she stared at me like I was a child that just broke an arm. “I’m so sorry on his behalf, Rain. I really am.”“It’s okay. It’s your brother, not you.” I tried to smile but my lips could only purse. “It’s not.” She hissed, a frown forming on her face. “He’s such a bastard. To make it worse, it’s almost finals again. How are you going to survive in this state? Would you email your professor for grace?”“I'll be fine.” I said dismissively, my heart starting to swell again. It felt like knives were piercing through my chest and it made me want to cry again. “Oh, Raina,” she said quietly. “You’re not o

    ~ LYRIC ~Finals week, finally! As much as I hated to admit it, I was excited for finals week. The exams were annoying, but it meant that once they were over, I had the chance to head back home. Lowkey, I missed my mother. I hadn’t seen her in almost a year! My phone chimed. Opening it, it was a text from Anna: ‘Hey, girlfriend. The semester got busy and I didn't have time to bother you, but here’s your reminder that Brian is still mine and you better get off his back or you won’t be able to see the next semester (smiley emoji)’. “This girl is crazy.” I scoffed. Speaking of Brian, I hadn’t seen him in person in a while. I hoped he was okay. I dialed his number, but it went straight to voicemail. I dialed it again, yet no response. “Is he okay?” I could feel my heart starting to throb harder as I dialed his number again. ‘Hey, kitty. I’m in class.’ When I received the text, only then, did the heaviness in my chest disappear. I was always worrying about him, especially since I heard

    Brian’s Mom, Myla, sat on the couch, one leg confidently crossed over the other. “What sort of question is that?” she made a hand gesture to Celine, and Celine rushed to pour her a cup of tea from the kettle I only noticed sitting on the table. “You know why I’m here. I need you to get off Brian. You took my money, so you might as well leave.”My eyes widened. “That’s right. How could I have forgotten the three million dollars?” My mouth went agape. “Mom would be so glad to know this. “You’re so shameless.” She scoffed. “You’re a good for nothing wench that’s just here to ruin my son’s life. You helped him get the Alpha position, okay? Now what? You expect him to marry you for that? He only did you a favor. You’re a useless, weak, stupid wolf with nothing to show forth. No worth.” My hands were tightening into fists beside me. I swallowed my words, muttering to myself that she was still Brian’s mother. However, she went on. “You’re a worthless crap, a waste to his life. You don’t des

    “No, Raina. You’re mistaken.””I am not!” she sat upright and gasped again. “The first time I had challenged you… you weren’t acting along.” Another gasp. “Tone is also a werewolf. I dated a werewolf!” She screamed. “WEREWOLVES ARE ACTUALLY REAL!”I slapped my hand to her mouth. “Be quiet. You’re being too loud.”She smacked my hand off. “So I’m right?”“No! You’re not. Nobody is a werewolf. I think the breakup has gotten to you too hard. You're rambling nonsense.”She frowned. “Don’t you dare call me insane. I know what I’m saying and you know it’s true. Don’t try to make me sound foolish. Why are you hiding it from me?”“Stop it, Raina!” I raised my voice. “Raising your voice wouldn’t change the truth.”“There’s no truth. I have no idea what you’re talking about. You’re misunderstanding everything. Maybe Blade meant something else.”“You’re lying, and I know that. You’re all werewolves!” She dug her hand into her hair. “What am I supposed to do? I have to tell someone. This is big.

    ~ LYRIC ~ School was finally over. This meant I could finally meet Pat’s granny. Hanging my backpack over my shoulder, I checked out of the hotel. Yes, a hotel. I had lodged in a hotel to avoid Raina at all costs. Today, we had to check out of our dorms, so I had made Brian hire people to help me pack. Raina had called me a billion times and every time made my heart skip a beat, so I completely ignored it. “Hello? Are you still there?” Brian snapped me out of my train of thoughts. “Y-yes, sorry about that.” I apologized, shifting in my cab. “Where are you now?” He asked. “What do you mean?” “You asked me to hire people to pack for you and you’re not here yet. Do you need me to pick you up?” “No!” I quickly responded, and pursed my lips in regret. I just had to make things suspicious.“Are you…okay?” He asked. “Yes, absolutely. I am.” I let out a harsh breath. “I’m at a girls’ hangout. We’re hanging out to celebrate the end of the semester. I’ll be with you right after.”“Oka

    ~ LYRIC ~I walked up to meet Brian, giving him a really tight hug. My heart was racing heavily and I couldn’t quite figure out why. “Do you really have to go?” I asked. “Yes. Why do you keep forgetting that I’m the Alpha. Please be strong. This is one of many wars I’d have to go to. Please,” he pulled away and cupped my face, “brace yourself up.”“But Brian,” I held his hands, giving them a tight squeeze. “Can’t you at least wait this one out or postpone it.” “No, I can’t. That’s too dangerous.” He smiled. “You’re overthinking it.”“I promise you I'm not. Why wouldn’t you just listen to me? I don’t have a good feeling about this at all.” “It’ll be fine.” He chuckled. A knock came on the door and Jordan poked his head through the crack of the door. “Alpha, we need to leave now. It’s starting soon.” “Okay, got it.” When Jordan left, he leaned down to kiss me. "I love you." "I love you too." My voice cracked. I stared into his soul, hoping he could read my eyes and tell that somet

    It had been four days since I had been back home, and Mom's cough was still as painful to hear as it had been the first time I heard it. However, she insisted on not going to the doctor.Also, she was being super nice to me and that scared the heck out of me. What happened to the yelling and cursing at me? Blaming me for every problem in her life? Tone's number was dialed on my phone, yet I couldn't bring myself to call. He cheated on Raina and I was mad at him, but it felt beyond that. I couldn't bring myself to call him anymore because It felt like I had wronged him. I needed to talk to him about Mom but my approach to him lately had been too harsh. He might not want to talk to me anymore."He's the one at fault. Why am I feeling bad for him?" I canceled his number from my dial screen and called Brian instead . "Helllo, baby." He said, requesting to switch to video call which I immediately did. As usual, he looked like the finest piece of cake. His stubble had grown a bit and his

  • Mated To my Professor   EPILOGUE

    It was the day I had been waiting for, the day I had worked so hard to reach. My graduation day. I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection as I adjusted my cap and gown. A sense of accomplishment washed over me, but it was mixed with bittersweetness. The road to this moment had been nothing like I imagined. The journey had been full of unexpected turns—love, loss, battles, and triumphs.In the early days after Brian’s coma, when I learned I was pregnant, I never thought I’d make it to this moment, let alone have my son with me by my side. The idea of balancing motherhood with my education had seemed impossible. But here I was, with my son, my husband, and my pack—ready to take the next step in life, even though I knew it wouldn’t be easy.I smiled softly at my reflection, adjusting my gown one last time. My son, only two years old now, was already napping peacefully in his crib, a reminder of how much had changed in such a short time. Brian had been there for me every s

    The first day back in classes felt so unreal. The energy of the students buzzed through the air—laughter, conversations, the occasional groan about assignments—but none of it truly reached me. Not with everything that had happened. Not with everything that still weighed on my mind.Brian walked beside me, his presence a steady force, but even he felt different. Stronger. More protective.As if he could sense what was coming.And he wasn’t wrong.'Goodbye, my love.' He said through mind link, causing my cheeks to flush red. 'Goodbye, my love.' I mind linked back and giggled loud, earning side eyes from two of the girls about to enter my classroom as well. The moment I stepped into my first lecture hall, Professor Jenna’s cold gaze landed on me.Jenna… jeez. How could I forget this witch?A woman who should’ve been nothing more than an ordinary professor, but she wasn’t. She had a fixation on Brian, one she had never hidden well. Before the war, before everything, I had ignored it. Br

    ~ LYRIC ~ The ray from the sun shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the pack house, casting golden light over the polished wood floors. I stretched my arms above my head, breathing in the sweet fresh morning air as I gazed out over the training grounds. Warriors were practicing, their movements sharp and precise, but today wasn’t about war or battles.Today was about something far more terrifying:School. Yup, you heard that right. I gotta go back to school. I had almost forgotten that the rest of the world hadn’t stopped when Brian was in a coma, when I was learning to rule, when I had been fighting to hold our pack together. But time had moved forward, and now it was time for me to return to the life I had before I became Luna.Not that I minded.I loved being Luna.I loved the power, the responsibility, the feeling of belonging to something greater than myself. The pack respected me. They trusted me. I had spent the past few weeks proving that I wasn’t just Brian’s wife—

    ~ LYRIC ~Two weeks had passed. It had been. Two whole weeks. Two gruesome weeks. Two weeks of Brian laying in the hospital with no medical diagnosis. No treatment possible because no identifiable problem. It had been Two weeks of ruling without him. Yes, on the bright side, the pack had completely defeated the enemy and wiped out all of them, thanks to my power (not to brag or anything), so I had been leading the pack as Luna completely, with help from Jordan. Poor Jordan was mourning the murder of his beloved. It broke my heart for him, but Anna got what she deserved. It had been two weeks of waking up alone, staring at the empty space beside me where Brian should have been.Two weeks of trying to be strong while my heart ached in ways I never thought possible.Brian was still in a coma. My mother, too.The healers said their conditions were stable—alive, breathing—but that wasn’t enough. Not for me.Every day, I carried the weight of my pack on my shoulders. I made decisions, I

    ~ LYRIC ~I couldn’t speak— speaking was too much. I couldn't breathe. Brian’s body lay limp in my arms, his warmth slipping away with every second that passed. My hands were soaked in his blood, trembling as I pressed them against the wound that should have never been there. This wasn’t how it was supposed to end. Not at all. What was all that stupid prophecy of saving him about? I had tried all I could, summoned all the power I could find, yet I couldn't heal him quickly. A violent storm of emotions built inside me—rage, grief, desperation—twisting and churning until my body couldn’t contain it anymore. I wanted to explode. Watching the love of my life grow cold and pale in front of me was a sight that stabbed my soul. "I would not let this happen!" I growled and rose up, his pool of blood dripping from me. "No! I screamed."I would not let this happen. A throat wrecking scream tore from my throat, shaking the very ground beneath me. My power exploded outward in a bright

    ~ LYRIC ~I woke to the sound of gunfire.The sharp, jarring cracks destroyed the peaceful silence of the night, sending a jolt of terror through me. I sat up so fast that the blankets wrapped around my legs scratched my skin, my heart thundering in my chest.Beside me, Brian was already moving. Clearly, someone had experience in years of war and survival that had trained him well because he didn’t hesitate, he didn’t freeze, he didn’t seem fazed. He grabbed his armor and weapons from the bedside, his body tense with readiness.“What’s happening?” I breathed, throwing off the cover and getting off the bed to match his speed. His eyes were already scanning the darkened room, his jaw clenched. “We’re under attack.”Another round of gunfire exploded outside, followed by the distant shouts of warriors and the sickening sounds of metal meeting flesh.My stomach twisted. I was growing tired of this whole war nonsense and just couldn't wait for it to end . We barely had time to pull on o

    “They are here!” A guard announced.I didn’t have time to panic.My vision had given me an advantage, but that advantage would mean nothing if I didn’t act now. The enemy was coming, and they were coming fast.I stood straight ignoring the way my body still trembled from the strain of seeing through time. I forced my voice to be steady, authoritative. I was Luna. They needed to hear confidence, not fear.“Jordan ,” I said, my tone fierce. “Gather everyone. Now.”He hesitated for a while before nodding and rushing off to sound the alarm.Minutes later, the war room filled with warriors, guards, and pack leaders. Their eyes were wide, their bodies tense. They knew something was coming.I took my place at the center of the room, armed with full armor and a gun for myself. .“The enemy is on their way,” I announced. “They’ve taken Alpha Brian as a distraction, hoping we’d be too broken to fight back. But we will fight back. And we will win.”A murmur ran through the crowd as they digested

    ~ RAINA ~I never should have agreed to this crap. Fake dating Blade was supposed to be easy. A simple arrangement. No emotions, no expectations—just a mutual agreement to keep up appearances. He needed to make Lyric jealous, and I… Well, I wasn’t sure what I was getting out of it anymore. It was initially for the sake of research, but I had barely done any research here. It was all just war, war, war. . At first, it was fun. Blade had a way of making things exciting, always pulling me into his world of effortless confidence and easy charm. I told myself it didn’t matter that he was still hopelessly in love with Lyric. That his eyes always followed her when she was in the room. That I was just a placeholder in whatever game he was playing. But then, somewhere along the way, I started wanting more. I realized it today when I saw the way he looked at her, even when she was barely holding herself together. We were at the training grounds when he spotted her. Lyric stood off to

    ~ LYRIC ~I stretched my legs across the couch, letting out a satisfied sigh as I sank deeper into the cushions. The warm scent of my mother’s cinnamon tea spread through the air, blending with the soft crackling of the fireplace. It was one of those rare, peaceful nights—one where the world outside didn’t seem so chaotic, and all that mattered was the quiet comfort of home. Tone sat across from me, one arm draped over the back of the chair, his face relaxed for once. For some reason, tonight, he looked… happy. Maybe even at peace. Mom was laughing at something he said, her voice light and full of warmth. I didn’t even catch the joke, but I smiled anyway, just glad to be here with them. In the midst of the war, I could still sit and enjoy a nice family time. “This tea is perfect,” I said, wrapping my fingers around the warm mug. “Mom, I swear, you should bottle this up and sell it. You’d make a fortune.” She chuckled, shaking her head. “It’s not that big of a deal. I just use a l
