Damon's POV "So what do you mean to tell me? You've been finding it extremely hard to stop thinking of her, and all you feel is the need to just be with her?" Ryan's voice rings in my head as I take out one of my books and begin to scan through it, trying my very best to neglect whatever question he is asking me. But why the hell am I being extremely stupid? I am the one who prepared myself to reveal my biggest secret to him, and now I am trying my best to avoid his question. This is just an extremely difficult situation. I don't even know what to think to myself right now as I chuckle and shake my head before returning the book back to its place. I shut the locker immediately and took hold of the handle of my backpack, exhaling deeply and returning my focus back to him with a raised eyebrow. It is at that point in time that I realize he is actually struggling to control himself from laughing
When I realize that nobody is close to me, I am forced to stand by the entrance of my classroom, gripping tightly against my bag, looking around me with confusion."What the hell was that?" I wonder to myself and brush my fingers through my hair, trying to adjust myself and recollect my composure.Then I exhale and take a deep breath, about to step into the class that has already begun.As usual, everybody's attention is drawn to me, and most of the girls begin to adjust themselves as if trying to get my attention, but all this is not what is in my mind right now."You're late once again, Mr. Damon," the instructor, Mr. Martins, says, and I chuckle before shaking my head and neglecting his comment while heading over towards my seat."I thought you should have gotten used to it by now, sir," I tell him, and everybody in the class chuckles and gasps at my audacity."I know you're feeling this big because of your status as
He turns to look at me with strong disdain."You are still even trying to resist even after the wrong you did? Oh, I promise you, you are so going to regret being this foolish!" he screams loudly and struggles to take hold of my hand.It is at that point in time that my wolf finally loses control, and I glare at the ground, avoiding to look up at anyone as I see complete red.I guess at this point in time my supernatural glowing blood-red alpha eyes have already been revealed, but I'm struggling my possible best not to look up so that everyone will not see it.Then the next word I hear is "mate" and my body suddenly loses control.Something is wrong with Serena. That thought suddenly whispers into my mind, and it forces me to bite down hard against my bottom lip.The pain I am feeling right now is not mine—it is hers.My body begins to tremble and extreme fear begins to rock through my senses.Mr. Mart
Don't tell me Isabella had to resort to the use of her dark magic to attack Serena right now?The thought of that is making my brain begin to burn ceaselessly in my head.All the students surrounding us are suddenly quiet, and they are gaping at me with surprise, wondering what the hell is going on.They were probably not expecting that I was going to be here trying my best to ensure that Serena is okay.No wonder they neglected the fact that I came here and didn't even bother to look at me or even be scared when I showed up.They thought I was going to contribute to the insanity they are doing right now.Good goddess, I can't even begin to explain how I feel.I feel like bringing the entire building down. I feel like turning everything into rubble."There is nothing to worry about, Damon, okay? Don't worry, she is just pretending, and I can guarantee you that she might not actually be able to get you
I take a deep breath and try my best to relax before ignoring them and heading over towards Serena's body."Forget about it, help me up here. Let's take her quickly to the sick bay."They all stare at me with complete shock before glancing at their surroundings, wondering what the hell had happened.But within a few minutes, they finally succumb and assist me in lifting up Serena's body.It's not like I can't carry her alone right now, but I have already been weakened by the extreme anger and annoyance I felt few minutes ago, and now that I have managed to calm down, it's already taking its toll on me, draining about 70% of my strength.Few minutes later, we are finally at the sick bay, and we hand Serena over to the doctor in charge who promises to look into her and ensure that she is in perfect state of health.I finally relax against one of the chairs in the waiting area as Brian and Ryan stand before me, folding the

Serena's POVI suddenly feel the intense desire to unleash a heavy sneeze from my nose, and it forces me to quickly get up from the bed. Using my left hand to obstruct my nose, I sneeze loudly, but then an extreme sharp pain fills my head, forcing me to wince and fall back down against the bed, groaning out and struggling to regain control of myself."What the hell happened?" I wonder to myself before slowly opening my eyes to behold my surroundings.I am lying down on a bed, so I glance around what appears to be a hospital, with the bright lights on the ceiling flashing into my eyes, almost blinding me.I quickly squint my eyelids before blinking rapidly and looking around me."How the hell did I get here?" I wonder to myself, still thinking and feeling sleepy when everything finally flushes back into my memory.Isabella.Isabella was the one who did this to me. I was trying to head to class, and then she atta
I feel the entire air being drained completely from my body as I continue to look at him, leaning my head against the pillow on the bed, completely weak. I am trapped and paralyzed in this spot with countless thoughts running through my mind as I bite down hard against my bottom lip. There is no way I can escape this now since my hands are currently attached to the drip, and if I make any move, I might actually cause myself a deadly injury. But then I can still feel his warm breath against my face as he brings his face closer until our noses are touching. The look in his eyes makes me twist my toes with so many boiling sensations I can't describe running through my body. Good goddess, he looks so hot and so sensual and so dangerously delicious—I just want to hold him so tight. He chuckles as he lifts up his hand and begins to brush his fingers against my lips slowly while gazing at my face.
The entire atmosphere is darkened by an extremely powerful range of energy that seems to be tearing through every single veil so present in the entire scenario.Tension in the air makes Serena's body begin to tremble, and she feels the extreme energy moving through her veins while she tries to create a balance within herself so she doesn't lose control.She clenches her fists tight, feeling her heart palpitating extremely fast without control in her chest as the witches and wizards draw closer and closer.The strange dark energy hovering all over their bodies makes the entire situation much more difficult for her to comprehend as her lips tremble and her hands begin to shake without control.Damon turns quickly and looks at her with worry in his expression.He moves closer to her and takes hold of her hand, gripping tightly against her palm as he gazes ahead of him, keeping his own attention on the dangerous individuals coming closer towards them."Calm down, Serena, okay? Just relax.
Damon shakes his head with determination and extends his hands, pulling me back a step, slowly backing away as the wizard glares, a strange, particularly green light flashing endlessly in his irises."We are offering you a last chance, Damon," the wizard speaks, and Damon shakes his head, chuckling as he throws his head back, laughing slightly."This is the third time you have said you are offering me a last chance. How many last chances do you feel you need to keep offering me in order to make it known to you that there is nothing that will make me let her go, and I am not leaving her in your wicked hands for you to deal with anyhow you wish.""This is not your affair to meddle with, Damon. This is totally beyond you, and you have no idea what you are doing. You don't know what she is, you don't know what she is capable of. She needs to be taken under our wing so that we can handle her to the best of our ability.""Okay, then why don't you be a wise wizard and tell me why the hell sh
Fear takes over my entire spirit, so intense that I turn my head to look at him. Damon looks excessively determined not to let me go, staring at the demonic-looking wizard standing before them. He seems to shine brightly all over his figure.Damon holds me tightly, and I continue to look at him with shock and admiration at how willing he is to protect me, even in the face of this dreadful experience."I am so sorry, but it is going to take more than a silly threat to get what you want," he replies, and I watch as the fellow chuckles, his head shaking before his eyelids close intensely. He opens them again."I really do not want things to go the hard way, Damon," he says. "Like I said, I respect your dynasty, and I do not want you to do anything that will come between the business of the House of Van Allen. So please, just respect yourself and step out of our business.""Okay, fine. I'm going to step out of your business if you can just tell me one thing," Damon says as the wizard gla
Serena's POVI remain against the ground, crawling backward as the wizard begins to move closer towards me, extending his hand and resuming the dangerous sorcery he was about to perform against me.But he is unable to complete that when we hear a very loud growl coming from behind him.Both of us turn our heads to behold a bizarre-looking wolf that jumps against him, gripping tightly against his neck and swinging him toward another direction.Good goddess, that is Damon's full wolf self, and it takes me completely off guard to behold how huge and gigantic and extremely terrifying he looks right now.I continue to step backward, observing the battle between Damon and the wizard when another presence catches my attention.I quickly look up to behold the other witches and wizards whom we had neglected all this while, slowly moving towards me with an urgency."Let's take this chance. We can't perform the ritual he
At this point in time, I suddenly lose control of myself, and I feel a very strong, dark, vibrating force that takes perfect control all over my body.The next thing I see at first is complete, total darkness, and then within a few minutes, I finally begin to observe my surroundings, but everything is not the usual normal color of the human eye which I can perceive.All I can make out is complete, thick red all over me, and I can behold the organs of all the witches and wizards standing in front of me."Oh great, something is about to get freakish right now."Damon's POVThe fear that is rocking through my senses is severe as I grip tightly against the jaw of the angry-looking dog in front of me. I twist its neck, rendering it completely lifeless before tossing it aside.Then I turn my head to behold Serena far away, being surrounded by the cloaked figures, stretching their hands toward her as if about to cast a spell o
My heart skips a beat the moment he says that, and I quickly look up at him, pulling down his head to look at me. "Are you fucking stupid? That is a very wrong move to make right now. You should have observed and realized how dangerous these people are. Why the hell would you be suggesting a fight? Do you want to get yourself killed?" I find myself blurting out at him, but he smiles down at me. "Calm down, Serena, okay? I know what I'm doing, and I promise you that nothing is going to happen to either of us. This is really, really crazy, though, and I don't really know why I feel like I should really hold on to you and protect you with all my life, but considering how our lives have been previously, a few months ago, my first option in this kind of scenario would have been for me to just hand you over to them so they can get rid of you instantly, but right now, I really just can't explain or understand what the hell you
I don't know why, but it only feels as though his words are like honey and milk and butter all mixed together, brushing against the strings of my heart and making me feel so warm and so soft deep down within.It feels so overwhelming and so surprisingly peaceful as I grip tightly against him as though he is my life support."We really do not want to beat about the bush right now, and we want things to be so easy," I suddenly hear a very deep, manly voice coming from one of the cloaked figures, and it makes it so obvious that this person is really indeed a wizard because his voice isn't coming out with the normal, natural sound that everyone knows. It is coming out as though he is speaking through a microphone, something like an echo."Give us the girl, and we are going to be on our way," he continues, and I feel Damon tremble all the while he is still holding me tightly against himself.My heartbeat accelerates the moment the fellow says that
The light is so bright and sharp, capable of piercing through the strongest element.Damon is swift enough to quickly push me away before bending down backward slowly and evading the attack of the light that flashed in between us.We watch as it strikes a building a few meters away from us and cracks a segment of it, allowing a huge amount of debris to fall to the Earth."Oh crap," I think to myself as I turn my head to glance at the cloaked fellow, who is now walking toward us with a very sharp, determined intensity, and from what I can figure out right now, I don't know why I'm feeling as though this particular fellow is coming after no one else except me.His entire focus and attention are totally on me, and I can feel it."We need to get out of here, Serena," Damon says and quickly takes hold of my hand, about to lead me to another section when a similarly bright greenish light manifests a few meters away and then vanishes t
"Am I the only one who heard that?" he asks, and I swiftly turn my head to look at him, biting down against my bottom lip."Well, you are definitely not the only one," I say as I continue to look around.He also extends his hands, slowly moving backward and gradually squatting to the ground as if preparing to get into his battle attack mode."Something doesn't smell right here," he says and swiftly begins to sniff the entire surroundings. "We are totally not alone," he says, and this, as usual, begins to make my heartbeat increase extremely fast in my chest as I clench my fists tightly together, trying to contain the pressure moving through my body."If you know what is good for you, Serena, you will have to do everything within your power to unleash your capacity to the maximum so we can bolt out of here and not encounter anything deadly."I bite down hard against my lip as I observe him intensely with fury."And I fuc
