'Good morning. How are you today?' A text from Brian popped up on my phone.

Rolling in bed, I pursed my lips to hold back my smile. 'Good morning. I'm pretty well. Uow are you?' I texted back.

'Great too. What are you up to? Any plans for the weekend?'

'Not really. Just homework, class projects, and studying for your exam and homework. Come on dude, why is your homework so hard? This isn't Harvard! (Pouting emoji).'

He responded with a laughing emoji, and that was it. I waited for the next couple of minutes till the colors that once flushed my cheeks faded.

"Seriously?" I scoffed, tossing the phone on the bed and sat up.

Raina's eyes were glued to me. We both maintained a silent eye contact till a smirk formed on her face. "You've been on the phone with someone lately."

"Yeah, an old friend." I climbed off the bed.

'"Just a friend, uh? It doesn't seem so. You've been grinning from ear to ear, blushing, squealing into your pillow, kicking your feet in the air, and laughing to yo

    “What the heck, Celine, what are you doing?" Brian groaned, jerking to his feet. He reached for my napkin and started wiping the stain of his shirt and face, frowning. She scoffed. "Are you playing with me right now? Who the hell is she?" She glared at me and I froze. Her face was crumpled together like a tigress ready to devour her prey– me, in this situation.. "That's none of your business. You shouldn't be doing this either." He glared. "Why not? My fiance is whoring around with some slut and I shouldn't do anything about it?" She raised her voice. Slut? I jerked to my feet. "What is going on?" I demanded, frowning. "It's nothing.” He tried to dismiss me. "What is going on?" I demanded, raising my voice a little. "I'll tell you. Brian and I have been engaged for five years." She extended her hand, exposing a huge diamond ring on her ring finger. Something struck my heart and made my body weak. It felt like I was reliving my most bitter memory. My lips quivering, I turned

    "Roger? What the hell are you doing here?" "Wow. You look great." He smiled, scanning me from head to toe. If I didn’t know better, I'd have thought he was admiring me."You’re not fooling anyone. What do you want?" I snapped, my hands balling into fists. I knew Emily was in town, but I had totally forgotten that it meant this idiot was in town as well. “I’m here for a while and realized you go to school here.” He smiled, scratching the back of his neck like old days. “I was wondering if you want to grab a drink or something.” “Did you hit your head in an accident? You’ve got some nerves to return after six years and ask for a drink. Are you mad?”“No, Ly baby.” he said and my face scrunched up. The rage that rose in me was beyond words could comprehend. All I could think of was: another minute with him could mean I’d be sentenced to life imprisonment if I took the volume of my fury out on him. “Leave.” Turning to take my leave, he grabbed my hand and scurried to stand in front of

    Ten Minutes until ten pm, and I had already fled downstairs. A burst of energy exploded from the depth of my insides, almost like butterflies in my belly. One would think I had just won a million dollar lottery, but no, I was just meeting my professor/mate. I watched the clock (aka, my phone) tick at every second till it was finally 10pm. "Yay! Anytime from now." Grinning, I lifted my head, eager to see that annoyingly pretty face. Brian's eyes, jawline, his damn gorgeous abs… these images playing in my head and my eyes wanted to behold them again. This past week had been filled with texting Brian back to back, and unlike Roger, he was a quick texter. He also texted me first most times, not making me seem like a desperate loser.The clock kept ticking and ticking till the giddiness in me died and was soon replaced with fury. "What the hell? It's 11pm!" I spat, causing a girl walking to the dorm to flinch. One hour, yet he hadn't showed up. No call, no text, nothing! I wanted to st

    "You want me to sleepover?" A familiar burst of energy overtook me. "Yes, but it's your choice. I mean, you don't—" "What if that strange attraction happens again?" "We'll deal with it, but i promise it doesn't happen all the time.” He assured me, then a smirk grew on his lips, “except you overfantasize about me." "In your dreams." I rolled my eyes. "I'm starving." "So you'll stay?""Since you insist, yes, I'll stay over." I started walking towards the kitchen and he followed behind him. "Great! I have a spare bedroom perfect for you, then we can watch a movie after?” “Sure, sounds good.” A text popped up on my phone. “Hi, beautiful. This is Blade. I’m so sorry for not texting in such a long time. I lost my contacts, but just retrieved them. Do you wanna grab lunch with me sometime next week?’ The idea of grabbing lunch with another man felt so illegal and nasty. It shouldn't, right? Lifting my head to glance at Brian, he flashed a millisecond smile that made my heart feel

    His kiss was gentle, yet stung with passion. It erased every embarrassment from me. As I tasted the flavor of his mouth, sparks corroded my internals and he did a great job in making the moment moderate enough for public view. I wanted to hold him, to explore every inch of his mouth, but he pulled away, clearly to avoid things getting heated. "Let's get going." He smiled and rose up. It re-dawned on me that I was in public and a few people had cast glances at us, and I swear, I wanted to be swallowed into the ground.When we took our leave, my lips still pulsated from his kiss, the sparks not leaving me. Dang, he was a good kisser. We got into his car and I prayed he'd keep the journey silent; he did everything but remain silent. "Your cheeks are red," he teased me over and over again. My mind didn’t stop racing through the effect of his kiss, so my cheeks remained heated. When he didn’t stop teasing me about it, I hid my face. "Where are we going now?" "You'll find out." *** M

    Roger's eyes bugged out. "This has to be a lie. Lyric, come on. He can't be your boyfriend."He really thought I was an absolute loser. That made my brows furrow and I stepped forward, maintaining a fierce stance in front of him. "I swear you're pissing me off so bad.""I don’t care.” He had never cared. Turning to Blade, “You. Why are you pretending to be her boyfriend? I know she's too broke to have paid you, so why are you ...." He trailed off, a smirk crawling on his lips. "Oh, her body. I mean, she's gotten hotter so she must be better in bed." "Roger!" Blade walked past me and punched him in the face. It made Roger fall backwards, his hand falling on his nose. "Darn it!" He hissed and lifted his head with blood oozing out of his nose. He held his fingers up to scan the blood and hissed again. "Have you lost it?" "I should be asking you that." I spat, my nose scrunched up. "Six years is enough time for people to change. I'm not the same loser you know, but clearly you're sti

    Proud to announce that I had gone two days without responding to Brian. He had called me over a hundred times (no kidding), sent multiple texts, and voice-mails I didn't bother to listen to. I wasn’t going to let another man use me and think he could get away with it. I rolled off my bed and picked my phone up. I had two new text messages. One was from my brother, Tone. 'The mechanic said it might take a while.' Oh yeah, thank goodness, his car had broken down about 10 hours into the journey, so he couldn't arrive here. The joy that filled my soul was beyond comparable. The other message was from Blade: 'Good morning, sunshine. Did you have a goodnight rest?' Blade had been texting me constantly, and while I'll admit that it was a little too much, the annoyance from Brian's situation fueled my passion to respond to him. 'Good morning. I did, indeed.' I replied his text.A notification popped up, showing that I had an email from my student account. Opening it, I read the heading. '

    If anyone had told me I’ll be going to Maui for my thanksgiving break, I’d have laughed at and called them stupid. Well, here I was, on a private jet, with my mate, to Maui.“What are you thinking of?” Brain asked, walking toward me.“Uh? Uh?’ I blinked back to reality. He gave a lopsided smile and sat beside me, buckling his seatbelt. “Were you thinking about me?”“In your wildest dreams,” I rolled my eyes. The servers brought our meal and it was cooked and presented like those I had seen in movies of people with high-class. “This is a private jet. Brian, you're rich.," that realization just struck me. "I guess." He shrugged. So many questions flooded my thoughts, like why the heck was someone rich enough to own a private jet working as a professor. I guess that's what this trip is for; I was going to uncover everything about him. By that, I meant both abstract and physical.*** I had expected us to arrive at a luxurious hotel, but even better, it was a beach house; it looked sma

    “What?” I screamed. “How could he do such a thing? Why? Where?” I asked at once.“I don’t know. After you had left the party, I got bored, so I was doing extra research on werewolves upstairs, then I stepped out, only to find him at the party, kissing another woman!” She wailed. “That bastard!” I gasped. “He just… I didn’t invite him to the party, so he didn’t know I was going there, and he just came with another woman. I just.. Gosh, I’m gonna pass out.” She said breathlessly, palming her face as she wailed. “Why? Why me?”Her body began to tremble, so I hugged her. “It’s okay, I’m so sorry.” “It’s not your fault. I should've listened to you when you yelled that he was irresponsible. I sacrificed everything for him and even lived in that shabby house with him, just out of love. How could he betray me like that?” She cried. Her body was shaking vigorously. I patted her back to try to calm her down, but it didn’t do anything. “It’s okay.”‘It’s not okay, not at all.” She wailed. “H

    Pulling away from the granny, I nodded. That made my chest sink deeper because not only was the thought of Brian dying disturbing enough, now I had to continue bearing the burden of this knowledge by myself. “Can I please get your number?” They looked at one another and burst into laughter. “WE don’t do that here. We’re very traditional and don’t want those technological things messing with us.” Janice said. “Oh, then I guess I’ll have to come back to visit?” I raised my shoulders. “Absolutely, and you both are welcome anytime.” Pat said. “Thank you,” Brian and I said in unison. “What exactly did you mean by 'she's gifted’?”Brian asked. “It’s just as you have said it. She is extremely gifted. Certain werewolves are chosen once in a thousand years to possess the power of the moon, which represents that they would be the most powerful werewolf alive, physically and spiritually. They would possess physical strength, and powers that are not ordinary. This time, Lyric is the chosen

    I watched myself in the mirror and my eyes flooded with tears. The white dress was knee-light, body hugging and its hem had a white furry coat around it that gave off a vibe of a wedding dress. Brian definitely had ulterior motives when he had bought this for me. I had tied my hair up to a neat bun and added some accessories I found. I also found makeup items that were my perfect shade, so I caked my face a bit and it turned out looking gorgeous. ‘Remember why we actually came here?’ Maya said and before she could speak further, I cut her off. I didn’t need any other option, not even my wolf’s. I felt her tugging at my mind, forcing me to let her speak, but I didn’t give her the chance to. A knock came on my room door, followed by Brian pushing it open. “Are you ready?” He asked with a grin. I nodded. He stretched out his hand to me and I took it, staring down at his neatly ironed black tuxedo . HIs gorgeous dark brown hair was slightly gelled backwards, and because it was longer,

    “Wait. What?” His brows jerked upwards. I nodded, laughing. “Yes. Let’s get married, right now. Jordan can be a witness on the call, whatever location. We can sign our marriage legally, do the blood oath at a temple or a park. I don’t know what it is, but…” I tried to define what felt like explosions in my belly, a feeling that I Could do anything right now. “”Are you certain?”“I’ve never been more certain about anything in my life. Let’s get married. It’s a win win. The pack wins, we win.” I was grinning from ear to ear. “Uh… okay, okay.” He glanced back then back at me then at the phone and he looked back and forth, searching for something. “I swear I don’t know what I’m looking for.” He said and we both laughed. “Get your car keys first.” I instructed. “Okay, gotcha! Wait here, okay? Don’t run away after I leave.” He instructed.I threw my head back to laugh. “Why would I run away?”“That’s right. Why would you?” He clicked his tongue and ran up the stairs. I heard him exclai

    “What did you just say?” I asked Brian, a frown on my face. “I– I… I can explain.” He immediately took off his apron from his body, rushing to me. “Lyric is there?” The panic in Jordan’s voice could be heard over the phone. I turned around, storming off, my fists clenched to its side. “Wait! It’s not what you think it is!” He called, his steps thundering behind me. I increased my pace but he caught up with me and grabbed my wrist, forcing me to a halt. “Let me go!” I hollered, yanking my hand from his grip. “Please hear me out. I promise it’s not what you think.” His face was paler than it was, his breath quickening. “What do you mean? Are you crazy? Why would you propose to me but not want to marry me?” I screamed. “That’s not what I meant, I promise. I swear, it’s not. Of course, I’d want to marry you. I won’t propose to you for clout.” “You said otherwise earlier!” I snapped. My entire body was boiling. I could swear smoke was oozing out of my ears. “It’s a misunderstan

    I tapped my feet uncontrollably in the cab as I reflected on Roger’s words. ‘Brain would die in a war,” Roger had said. I shook my head, ridding my brain of such horrific thoughts. No way! I shouldn’t believe Roger's words. I don’t know what came over me with Roger tonight, but it shouldn’t make me believe all he had said. He was still the same old liar. I may have forgiven him about our past relationship, but that didn’t mean I had to completely trust him now. As much as I tried to convince myself, my body became more unsteady at the thought of Brian losing his life too soon. “Can you please drive faster?” I said to the cab driver, and he shot me a death glare through the rear-view mirror. “This is the tenth time you’re saying that, ma'am. I want to believe you’re not blind and can see the traffic ahead of us. I can't make my car fly over the other cars.” He snapped. “I–I’m sorry.” I said, immediately drifting my attention back to my phone to avoid catching his glare. I tried c

    I stepped out of the building, a frown on my face as I glazed around for the annoying sight of Roger. Something kept poking my mind, telling me I didn’t need to know and I should just ignore his text and go back inside. However, a heavier stubbornness pushed me all the way out of the hall and was waiting to hear what Roger had to spill.MY gaze shifted to the side of the porch and a couple were making out beyond viewer’s appropriation. It made the frown on my face worsen. “Get a room!” I yelled. They shot me a glare and resumed their nonsense. I walked away from them, watching between the jam packed cars to see if I’d see a familiar figure around, but none was found. Rolling my eyes, I began walking back in when my phone chimed again. ‘Calm down, baby. I’m coming. I see you. Just wait.’ Roger’s text popped up.My frown hardened at his text, yet I waited and lifted my head to the side, watching Roger scurry up to me. “Hey, baby.” He grinned.“Call me that again and you won’t live t

    My body immediately began trembling and I glanced at Raina who had her brows furrowed in confusion. “What the heck is that supposed to mean?” Raina asked, stepping in front of me. “It means exactly what we said. She had come to confess it by herself.” A lanky girl draped in all-black and black makeup said, walking towards us. “Confess it?” I lifted a brow and finally looked behind me, realizing that Bri had walked in right after us. She had a tight, pursed-lip smile on her face. I raised an eyebrow at her and she just averted her gaze. “Yeah, she confessed it herself and ruined the fun of us trying to discover the truth.” The lanky girl said, picking a glass of drink from the table. “What are you going to do now? You’ll surely be expelled.” someone yelled at Bri. “Yeah! Reveal who the professor is. Why are you still trying to protect his image?” Someone else hollered. They kept yelling, till it became jumbled nonsense. Bri, on the other hand, was trembling as they spoke, her

    My forehead furrowed at her like she was one stupid child. "What are you rambling about?" "Cut the crap!""Cut what crap?!" I yelled back, making her flinch. "You just walked up to me, yelled at Ms, and started rambling nonsense, yet you're telling me to drop the act. I honestly don't know what you're talking about." "So you've never noticed anything off about yourself as a werewolf since you were born?" She raises a brow, but her forehead was still furrowed up in a frown. "No. I mean…" was I supposed to tell her? I didn't think twice before blurting out, "I'm cursed, and you should know it, I was bullied for it in middle school and high school." "I joined our high school late. How am I supposed to know?" She hissed. "You idiot. Who made you tag a blessing as a curse?" "Wait. What are you… what do you mean?" I stepped back, trying to gather my thoughts as one piece. "I'm…" "It's not a curse. I've done my research. You've been meddling with my love life so much, I wanted to find
