MIRANDA

"Let’s meet at college. I think we can talk better in person." Then the call dropped, and I wasn’t sure what she meant, but I shrugged it off.

My stomach was rumbling impatiently as it was taking a while for him to bring my meal. I hissed in annoyance and stood up.

As I walked downstairs, my footsteps echoed on the steps. When I reached the dining room, it was empty. I turned toward the kitchen, where I could hear some noise.

I approached the kitchen and found Owen wearing an apron, just like Stella and two other maids. They were all busy with dishes; Stella was making stew, pouring in the seasoning, while the others cut and seasoned the meat.

I chuckled when I saw Owen chopping vegetables on the cutting board.

"What are you doing, helping to cook?" I asked, walking towards him as he nudged me back.

“Mum, do you know if he can actually cook? He might mess things up,” I said, folding my arms. Stella, frying the meat, shook her head.

“Honestly, I think he cooks better than you.

    MIRANDA My eyes opened wide as I already got in, two individuals were on the bed naked, their clothes spread across the floor, making a mess in the room.The lady who was below the man with her legs opened wide and the man's dick going in and out of her pussy sighted me as she got up immediately."What on earth?!" She exclaimed, pushing the man off, as she quickly got off from the bed and began to wear her dress. The man does the same, as I was shaking my head, cum dripping from his dick, it seems I interrupted the two from fucking but in the palace room?. "I... I didn't mean to interrupt!" I stammered, overwhelmed as they rushed toward me."Seriously? Get out of here!" The woman shouted, her gown half on and her boobs flopping as she pushed me out of the way. She dashed off with the man, and I couldn't believe how quickly things had escalated."Where's the boss? We need another room!" That was the last thing I heard before they disappeared through the front door.I ran my hands t

    MIRANDA"I... I can't..."I hesitated as he scoffed. I realized it was my fault for coming down here; otherwise, I wouldn't be in this mess."If you can't, then if I come closer and do it myself, I won't go easy on you or the guards...""Fine," I muttered, as he smirked. I closed my eyes for a moment, my heart racing, before slowly removing the first strap of my bra, then the second. I could feel my boobs showing already, his eyes were on it as he bite his bottom lips and then slowly he began walking closer to me, I began to step backwards, little by little, until the wall stopped me from moving any further. I was faced with his breathe which was so close to me, his hands slowly began to move from my waist to my legs as he then raised one of my legs up."Please I need to leave here..."Then he placed one of his fingers on my lips to shun me up. Don't talk. Don't move," he whispered, his voice low and commanding as his hands slid down my waist, I could feel his hands going into my p

    MIRANDA"But why? Why?” I asked, my voice rising with frustration because I had been smiling when Lycan Zephyr agreed to let me live on campus, but now it felt like this enemy of progress was ruining everything. "Haven’t I told you how dangerous living on campus is?" Oliver’s voice was firm, but my mind was racing. I could almost feel the excitement of campus life slipping away. What about the Rogues he mentioned? My heart sank at the thought.He really just ruined my day.I sighed sadly as I stood up from my chair and gave my mum a quick peck on the forehead."I’ll be leaving now, Mum." I turned to Zephyr, bent my head, and whispered, "Bye."Without glancing at Oliver and Orion, I hurried out of the house. As the driver pulled away from the mansion, I took a deep breath, trying to calm the storm of emotions inside me."Just don’t bring it up again and forget about going to campus, okay?” Kira urged, advising me as I nodded my head.I don’t understand why they’re so possessive and pr

    MIRANDA"Jenny please!" The girl pleaded but to no avail.I sat frozen, my heart pounding, as Jenny relentlessly dragged the innocent girl out of the classroom, her cries and please echoing off the walls even as the girl begged in tears, insisting she hadn’t done anything wrong, yet Jenny silenced her with a sharp slap.What could I do? I couldn’t stand by and watch that innocent girl suffer, especially after feeling so powerless myself in the past. Their plan was to torture her to death and I won't let that happen."Look here, you cunt!" Lisa muttered as she forced my chin up to meet her gaze, her hand outstretched, pointing toward the door."Fucking let me go, Lisa...""You saw how your kin was dragged around like a rag, didn’t you?"My jaw dropped in shock as anger twisted in my gut. My heart raced as she gripped my jaw, her nails digging into my skin. Gathering all the strength I had left, I slowly began to pry her hands away. Confusion flickered in her eyes as she looked betwee

My hands were stained with blood, and I needed to wash them. I wiped my hands after the blood was gone, but they were still wet, so I used my dress instead. I had left my napkin in class."You still haven't answered my question, Mira."I hissed, having ignored him earlier. I didn’t even know the answer, and honestly, he didn’t deserve a response.What's his business with my relationship with the Triplets?"Don't think we've bonded over this, okay? We saved the girl, and that's all I needed." That's the only response I have for him.I started walking toward the school clinic’s gate, aware of him following closely behind. I quickened my pace and slammed the small gate shut, but he opened it and continued to call my name. Ugh, I was so fed up with this."What is it? What do you want from me?" I shot back, my heart racing.“You.”His reply was

    MIRANDA POV The triplets are hosting a party, calling it a 'fun party.' I just hope they're not up to anything bad.“Hope you’re okay with it?” she asked, her fingers deftly slipping the dress off her shoulders. Left in just a pair of shorts and a top, she walked over and sat down beside me.I avoided parties mainly because of my studies. I’ve always been the studious one, the one who kept her head buried in books while others partied. As a struggling student, I wanted to make my parents proud, and skipping parties was my top priority. “It’s going to be my first time attending a party, but first I need to go home and change before coming back to you.”I stood up, a smile spreading across my face, but Sophia quickly grabbed my hand, pulling me back down. “Not so fast!” she laughed, her eyes gleaming mischievously.“I have tons of dresses—old and new! Just stay with me, and let’s go together,” she pleaded, her eyes sparkling with hope. I glanced at her cluttered bed, fabric spilling

    MIRANDAWe arrived at the venue, the music thumping loudly as we stepped out of Roland's car. He had driven us down from the lodge down here.I concentrated on walking carefully in the high heels Sophia had given me. I had never worn heels this high before, these were her lowest, at 10.5 cm. Just as I started to feel confident, my ankle wobbled, and I stumbled into a lady in front of me.Embarrassement flooded on my cheeks, and I fidgeted with the strap of my glittering gown, avoiding the curious gazes around me. "I'm deeply sorry," I apologized.The lady was kind not to react as she began to leave, but as she walked away with someone beside her, I realized she looked familiar, her purple ring shining in the dark."Gosh, I hope you didn't get hurt! You need to learn how to wear heels," Sophia said as she checked on me. I turned slowly, feeling an urge to squeeze her right there. She pouted at me, and I sneered back. Sophia was wearing a short gown that covered her half of her butt.I

    MIRANDAThe warm breeze brushed across my face as I rested my hands on the parapet, gazing at the city in the distance.It had been two days since I last stepped outside the mansion. I missed my friends. The silence here only made me feel more isolated, but I had been studying, all while trying to endure the anger of the triplets for what I'd done."Want a coffee?"I heard a voice from behind me. Turning, I saw Owen walking toward me, holding two cups of coffee. He handed me one as he reached my side, and I took a sip before returning my gaze to the horizon.Owen smiled at me. "Hope you are getting better."I nodded. "The wounds are all closed. I'm just feeling a little pain there, and that's about it.""Good to hear." He thrust his hands into his pockets."When was the last time you spoke to your mom? Do you know when they're arriving?"I shook my head. "I really don't know the specific date, but I'm sure they will arrive before the week ends.""I doubt that.""Why?" I asked, my curi

    MIRANDA "Miranda."I knew that voice all too well—it was Oliver. He ran toward me, panting as he took me in with a glance from head to toe before pulling me into a hug. Meanwhile, I could barely breathe, still coughing from how tightly her hands had been wrapped around my neck."Now you see why I told you to stay home, huh?"He pulled back from the hug, taking a step away before grabbing my hand and leading me behind him."Who are you?" Oliver demanded, his voice echoing through the darkness. His eyes were fixed on her as she struggled on the ground, trying to free her legs from the rope tangled around them, groaning quietly under her breath.The area was so dark I could barely make out the details. She didn’t respond, nor did she beg for her life. Her hands were focused solely on the rope, while Oliver scoffed in frustration.He moved closer to her as she quickened her pace, her fingers working desperately at the ropes. Oliver bent down."Something's off about the way I'm sensing fe

    MIRANDA POV"Please... don't... harm... me," I stammered, my voice trembling as chills raced down my spine. Cold sweat pooled at the back of my neck. My eyes began scanning the room desperately searching for an escape, I spotted a door at the far end of the room. Without considering the consequences, I ran as fast as I could, my footsteps echoing. I glanced back; he stood there, unmoving, slowly tilting his head toward me. My heart raced as I yanked the door open and dashed outside.The area felt eerily empty as I hugged myself against the cold, wrapping my arms around my shoulders. The chilling wind whipped around me, causing the trees across the way to sway. I realized I was behind the club building.I needed to be cautious about where I went. Though my mind felt foggy, I couldn’t shake the unsettling thought of what she meant by "good to see you again."Right now, I’m hiding behind the club building, unable to move any further. A sharp ache throbbed in my back, and each step sent

    MIRANDAI tightened my grip on the glass of wine, my heart pounding as I scanned the crowded room. Daniel sat too close to Sophia, his smile wide and inviting. The sight twisted my stomach.The worst part was that Sophia was smiling at him, she looks so happy, I could see she was already falling for him, while Daniel was winking at me. Isn't it absurd? It was so infuriating. What was his plan with her? Why would she ever fall for someone like him?“And you are?” Daniel’s voice dripped with mock curiosity, pulling my focus away from Sophia. My eyes were already turning red with anger. Please, moon goddess, don’t let him use her for his stupid motives. I don't trust him."She's Miranda Cosgrove, my best friend," she replied, stepping in for me. Honestly, I didn’t even want to respond.Gosh this dickhead! Sophia nudged me, prompting me to force a smile at her. I shot Daniel a stern look, but he met my gaze with an evil grin and still winked at me.“Sophia, let’s get out of here. Where

    "Gosh... they're so handsome.""I would leave my man for one of them.""If I could, I might have a one-night stand with them."Whispers and handclaps echoed as they walked into the club, wearing leather jackets with white linings and plain black trousers. Only Owen wore glasses.Some guys dusted off the couch where they were supposed to sit in the middle of the club, while the triplets shrugged and took their seats. They settled onto a round couch with a table in the middle. The people sitting across from them smiled widely, feeling lucky to have the trio nearby. "Let's raise a toast to our amazing Oliver, Owen, and Orion for always organizing the best party in town!" Baka announced, and everyone in the club lifted their glasses. Miranda, Sophia, and Roland joined in, raising their glasses high.Miranda rolled her eyes and downed her drink. She took a deep breath, hoping they wouldn't see or smell her until the end of the night."Yeah!!!" the crowd echoed, and only Orion smiled as t
