~Amara~"It's because you're the one who came up with the fucking stupid challenge, Luke! You know pretty well that my father and your father are against it, but what did you do? You went against their words and I had to cover up for you when Patricia asked what happened to Nicholas!"I paused to catch my breath."What was the need for the two of you to fight? What did you gain from the fight besides bleeding and broken lips? Was it necessary to know who is stronger than the other?"I scolded Luke and he was quiet for a while."I know it was wrong, okay. I just wanted Nicholas to know that I'm better than him.I wanted to keep him in his place."Luke shrugged nonchalantly. His answer made me more furious and I fisted my hands."Why? Why would you want to prove that you're better than him? We have been training together all these years, Luke. I know you're among the best in our pack. You don't need to prove it to anyone."I tried to knock some sense into his head.I couldn't understand why L
~Amara~Taking a deep breath to calm my racing heart, I knocked on the wooden mahogany door and Mrs Pamela granted me the permission.Her angelic voice reminded me of the last time she was so pissed off because I was involved in a fight and the thought of it sent chills down my spine. I just hope that this time is not another scolding.I don't want my father to come to campus again.Mrs. Pamela was busy going through the biology textbook when I entered her office. It was deadly silent, even a pin drop could be heard. Slowly, she raised her head and looked at me. I could hear my heart thumping wildly against my ribcage.However, I tried to put on a smile despite the nervousness."Amara Hernandez, Please have a seat."She gestured for me to sit on the wooden chair opposite from her.I looked at the chair and then nodded hesitantly, offering me a chair only meant one thing.That we are going to have a lengthy conversation, something that I wasn't prepared for."I know you're wondering why I c
~Amara~The day passed by pretty quickly and now it was time to go back to our pack since the lessons were over.I didn't care to know how things turned out with Sandra because that was none of my business.However,I was happy that now I was out of Mrs Pamela's bad record since that is what mattered the most.Nico, Luke and I headed to the parking lot quietly. The two were still mad at each other and I couldn't stand the hostility around me. All I wanted was peace and calmness.That is the environment that I'm used to. I was raised in a peaceful environment.We arrived at the parking and realised that the beta had not arrived to pick us up, so we had to wait for him to arrive. For a split second, I wished my father could allow us to drive ourselves to campus and back to the pack.However, I couldn't blame him because I know he's just being careful."Can the two of you talk things out? I don't like the way you look at each other."I raised my concerns and they both looked at me and looke
`Amara~Nico's lips curved into a smirk when he looked at me through the vanity mirror and realised that his closeness was affecting me even though he hadn't laid his hands over me to explore my body and make me moan in pleasure.I know Nico can see through my soul and he can feel my feelings through the mate bond.He knows fucking well that I longed for him.He knows that I badly needed him.However,he was just trying to play dumb with me and I hated it so much.He kissed me on my bare neck,my eyes shuttered effortlessly and I tilted my head to the side, giving him the permission to do whatever he wanted to my neck."Says someone who didn't miss me even a little bit."He whispered in my ear,his voice low and husky."I can smell someone's arousal in the air,"He said teasingly and a throaty chuckle escaped his lips."Don't be too hard to yourself.Your body is betraying you,Amara,"He brushed hair strands from my neck and I couldn't help it but shiver at his touch, silently craving for more a
~Amara~I woke up to the annoying siren noise of my morning alarm and I groaned in response because I wanted to sleep some more. With closed eyes, I reached for the alarm on the side bed table and turned it off.I fluttered my eyelashes to get rid of the blurry vision and my heart ached. An unexplainable feeling crept into my heart when I woke up to a cold and empty bed.I closed my eyes and heaved a deep sigh. I know he couldn't stay till morning because it's risky but…I just wanted to wake up in his arms, laying my head on his chest and his musk scent clouding my nostrils.It hurts when I fall asleep in his arms but wake up to an empty and cold pillow.His scent still lingered in the air and I breathed it deep in my lungs to help me feel his presence.I knew this would happen when I fell asleep in his arms after the intensive lovemaking.I tightened my grip around him as if doing so would prevent him from leaving but…"I hate when I wake up to an empty bed, Isabella. I would like to wak
~Amara~I could hear my heart thumping against my ribcage and for a second,I was afraid that it would explode."What is it? Don't tell me that you were involved in another fight on campus."My father raised his concerns and I saw worry on his face."We would like you to know that…that…"I stuttered as my tongue became so heavy in my mouth and I couldn't find the right words to say."We are happy and we would like to thank you,for always guiding us and listening to us even when everyone else thinks that we are the ones at fault,"I said and tried to put on a smile."Mrs. Pamela looked into the matter that happened a week ago.She knows the truth now.She knows that I'm not the one who started the fight. Sandra will be punished for it."My lips curved into a smile and my father smiled back at me.I felt disgusted for not having the balls to tell my father what I intended to say. I picked the cup of coffee and gulped down my throat. I fisted my left hand under the vintage tables so tightly that
~Amara~Nicholas led me to the rooftop, the sky was clear and the surroundings looked so beautiful. The weak wind blew through my hair and I shivered. I gave Nico's hand a gentle squeeze and he turned his head to look at me."I hope this will help you feel better, I want you to forget about everything and enjoy the beautiful sight."He looked at me and the corner of his lips curved into a smile.I was happy that Nicholas was trying to help me feel better.Even if I felt like a failure,he looked into my eyes and smiled at me.His support was enough to keep me going.I sat between Nico's legs on a mat and he wrapped his strong hands around me so tightly and buried his face in my neck then inhaled deeply, as though reminding himself how I smelled like.It was silent, just a comfortable silence since we didn't have that much to say.For a split second,I wished the moment could last forever. Nico brushed hair strands from my neck then let me go."What's wrong?"I turned my head to look at him an
~Amara~"No!"A firm voice erupted into the air, Brylle and I turned our heads towards the source of the voice and it was no other than Nicholas.He was carrying packed food."Come on Nico, don't pretend to be the overprotective bro because you have never been one," Brylle said in annoyance."What if today I decided to be the overprotective brother?"Nico tilted his head to the side challengly."You're not the one to make decisions for Amara. She is a grown-up and she can choose what she wants to do."Brylle turned his head to look at me, "Is it right Amara?"Brylle asked and I nodded my head to his words."Yes, the decision is mine to make,"My lips curved into a small."Brylle, thank you for the coffee out offer."I paused and took a deep."However, I would like to politely decline your offer."A deep frown settled on Brylle's face when he heard my words, "Why? Are you going to follow his decision, Amara? Don't tell me that Nico made you change your mind."I could tell that Brylle was not the
