Mike's POV

“Where is it?” I muttered to myself as my eyes scanned the table in front of me. I'd lost count of how many times my eyes had scoured the table, but it didn't change anything. I still couldn't find it. “Where the hell is it?”

A low hiss slid past my lips as I got up. I was sure I'd left it on my bedside table, so why wasn't it here anymore? Had someone snuck in and probably taken it? But who? Who would have come in here and taken it without my knowledge? My room was always locked, except for the night of the pool party.

Was that when it had been taken? I shook my head. It still didn't make any sense. No one knew what they were used for, so why would they take it? I just needed to find it. I'm sure it's in here. It just has to be here.

I headed to my wardrobe immediately. I swung open the wooden doors, and a loud creak followed, but I couldn't be bothered about that. One after the other, I pulled my clothes, before flinging them onto the bed. I didn't care about making

    Liliana's POV I pressed my eyes shut, but only momentarily, reason being, if I were to stumble and fall, I would be left completely alone to deal with the pain and embarrassment that came with it. I wasn't alone, but I was sure before she would realize that I had fallen, Ciara would have had to finish talking about the man she just wouldn't stop talking about.“Isn't he dreamy?” Ciara's voice pulled me back to the present, forcing me to tune back into our conversation. “ You can't even deny that he isn't. He's just so hot it literally hurts.”I wanted to barf. Like literally throw up all over the walkway. If everything Ciara was saying happened to be how she truly felt about him,then she was in danger, serious danger, and needed help as soon as possible.“Are you even listening to me?” Ciara shot me a side glare and I nodded furiously. “Are you lying to me?”“No.” Yes. I wanted to yell out the words that she had no idea what she was saying and was totally romanticizing a total vi

    Liliana's POV I couldn't believe my eyes, nor my ears. Even in a million years, I never saw myself going through something like this. I knew I was bad luck, but this was becoming an overkill. What exactly did I do to deserve all of this? First it was the moon goddess by not giving me my wolf, and now I had to deal with the universe too. Of all the people in the school, why did it have to be me? Why did that ball choose my direction to fly towards? It could have been anyone else, but why me?Despite the searing pain in my bones, I managed to peel my eyes open, just in time to see Jason walking away. Something surged through my bones, anger perhaps, but whatever it was, I just couldn't sit back and let Jason get away with it.“How dare you!?” I yelled, and despite my injuries, my voice came out pretty loud. Loud enough to catch Jason's attention even. A wave of cold raced down my spine as he halted in his tracks. He had obviously heard me, and now I had to wait for his reaction.M

    Liliana's POV A soft breeze rustled by, causing the trees and the green grass to sway gently. A soft citrus scent filled the air, and I couldn't help but suck it all in. The sun was nowhere to be found, and clouds were scattered across the sky. It wasn't a rainy day, and the absence of the sun's harsh rays made it a perfect time to sunbathe or enjoy a little picnic. Birds chirped in the air and I was sure that if I took a picture of this moment, it would look like something straight out of a fairytale.As I stared at nature being nature, I forgot about all of my worries. Even though it was only temporary, I definitely didn't mind staying here forever. If I had known we were going to be having perfect weather today, then I would have prepared myself to enjoy it to the fullest.I had barely pressed my eyes shut to revel in the peaceful quiet that surrounded the place when a loud sound pierced my ear drums. It was a shriek, then followed by a loud thud right in front of me.I opene

    Liliana's POV I couldn't believe my ears. In fact, I didn't want to believe it. I didn't want to believe that what I'd just heard a minute ago was true, even to the tiniest bit. No way.It didn't make any sense. Why would Mike just walk up to Ciara and slap her? Just like that? Yes, Mike was mean, but I liked to think he only exhibited his ugly attitude towards me. It made no sense to extend that branch to poor Ciara, she had done nothing to deserve that.I shook my head slightly, willing the thoughts to go away. There had to be some sort of misunderstanding, but there was no way I was going to get to the bottom of it all if I stayed here. With one glance at the mirrors and my stinky hair, I sighed. If Ciara could jump in to save me, then it was only fair that I would do the same to her.My hair was already turning a sickly green shade, but I ignored it and stepped out of the toilet, just to come face to face with Mike and Ciara.Ciara's eyes met mine immediately. They were as w

    Liliana's POV I was still having a hard time grasping what was going on. No matter how hard I tried to think about it, it just didn't make any sense. From Mike showing up at the toilet, to him dragging me home and requesting to help me wash my hair, it was all fishy and now his latest request had just made it worse.“Take off your clothes.” Mike's words swirled around in my head. It had been a good couple of minutes since he said that, but I still couldn't wrap my head around it. “Now.”Why did he want me to take off my clothes? He was done helping me wash so the ideal thing was to let me go and have a change of clothes, right? Right.But I couldn't be more wrong.I stared at Mike one more time. His eyes were fixed on me, and that was all the proof I needed to know that he wasn't joking about what he'd just said. He had meant every word of it.Shit. I was in big trouble.“Liliana.” My name rolled off his lips effortlessly. “Take off your clothes.”There was something in the way he

    Jason's POV A sigh slid past my lips as I stared at the phone in front of me. For the umpteenth time in the last couple of minutes, I stared at the pop up message that followed the unanswered call. If I didn't understand how a phone worked, I would have jumped to the conclusion that the gadget was broken and probably malfunctioning. It would be pretty easy to think like that, especially since I'd been calling up Mike for the past minute now, and all he was doing was hanging up on me.Shit.I snuck a glance at the door in front of me. It was locked. I had tried going in myself. This wasn't the first time I'd be coming to Mike's house and I was sure he wouldn't mind. Why did the door have to be locked shut on today of all days?Without so much as anything else to do, I pressed my eyes shut, before pressing my back against the wall. My back had barely come in contact with the wall before something flashed in my mind.A memory, a very peculiar one for that matter.“Wild cat.” I mutt

  • My Stepbrother Vs My Fated Alpha   Chapter 16

    Liliana's POV The journey to Ciara's house didn't took more time than I'd expected, and all thanks to a lot of reasons too. At first, there was no way I thought I would be able to go visit her in the first place. If someone had told me that I would have been able to come up with a way to leave the house, then I would have definitely laughed my head out.After Mike had refused to go and let Jason in, I felt my blood pressure shoot up to the roof, and I didn't want to take the suppressant either. There was nothing more dangerous than an angry Mike, and it was an aroused Mike. If I hadn't done what I just did, then I would probably still be in the house with Mike, without Jason, giving him the opportunity to do whatever he wanted with me.I had let out a sigh of relief when Mike decided to go let Jason in. I thought I was safe but the moment I heard Jason's voice filter into the living room, I just knew I had to get out of the house. It was going to be even more disastrous with th

    Liliana's POV Time seemed to slow to a halt as I stared at the man in front of me. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't bring myself to tear my gaze away from him. It felt like I was stuck in a trance, and nothing was getting me out of it. A million and one emotions flashed in Jason's blue eyes, but I couldn't bring myself to pinpoint one of them. They rushed by in a flash, and the more I stared at him, the more I felt my breath hitch in my throat.My palms felt clammy and a cold settled over me immediately. Why did he have to be here? There were other classes he could take, why did he have to be offering the same one as I was? Why? Just why was my luck so bad? The tingles i was feeling intensified, and I caught sight of Jason's nose flaring up a bit, like he was sniffing.Could he really smell my scent all the way there? What if he recognized it? What if he realized it was from the cellar the other day? Was he going to call me out on it? Was he….“Liliana.” The sound of my

    Liliana's POV The clock on my bedside table rung loudly, and I sprung out of bed immediately. If I was being honest, I wasn't exactly sleeping. I had been awake for the past hour and I was only waiting for the alarm to go off. That way, not only did I have a reason to walk about the house, I was also sure that the very person I was looking for, was already awake.Mike.Even the mere thought of the man was more than necessary to erupt feelings I didn't like. They were all negative feelings, but no matter how hard I tried to shake it off, they just wouldn't budge.If there was one thing that refused to leave my mind, it was me and Mike's last interactions. It didn't leave my mind, and even after some days had passed, I still had vivid flashbacks of that little moment.“I love you, Liliana.” His words rang in my ear. “Why won't you listen to me?”I knew I was pretending to be unconscious when he had said that, but I always wish I could pretend it never happened. I had tried pushin

    Liliana's POV A lot of things had been going wrong since I finally came around, but all of this was too much, even for me. I always heard that of you took a deep breath and tried to think things through, then you would come up with a logical solution for everything that had been happening. I should have known things that applied to everyone else wasn't exactly the same with me, and the fact that I always searched for a silver lining, was one of my biggest mistake, and I had just slipped up again.I stared at the man in front of me, a wave of emotions flashing on his face. I knew Mike wasn't the most straight forward person in the world, but this was a lot, even for me.When he had burst in here a couple of minutes ago, I hadn't expected it. If I was being honest, I legit thought he was going to storm into my room with someone else, Jason in particular. He was far from pleased when he realized I had called Jason. If I couldn't believe that I had called him either, how did I expect

  • My Stepbrother Vs My Fated Alpha   Chapter 38

    Mike's POV I didn't want to, but I was already out of options at this point. Before doing it, my mind had whirled with a million and one other options, other things I could do instead of doing this, but no matter how hard I tried, I just wasn't able to come up with anything else. And like that wasnt frustrating enough, Liliana was being so damn stubborn.And I hated it.I stared at the young lady in my arms. Her eyes were closed, and as I stared at her, I watched her chest rise and fall ever so slowly. She was a peaceful little thing while she slept, and if that wasn't the biggest contrast to how stubborn she was while awake, then I had no idea what was.I ran a hand through her hair, the soft feel of her locs threading against my skin. I could get used to this, making her fall asleep in my arms, but no matter how much I wanted it, it didn't change the fact that it was only a far fetched dream.My eyes slid to her face, and for a minute, I was reminded of the little scene that ha

    Liliana's POV A small groan was the first thing that slid past my lips the moment I came around. I wasn't fully awake,but that did nothing to lessen the pain that spread throughout my body. My eyes were pressed shut, and as a couple of seconds ticked by, I realized something; I didn't necessarily want to open my eyes. At least not now.I had no idea what the moon goddess had in store for me, but one thing was clear. Whatever it was, I needed to go through a certain amount of pain before it unfolded. I was barely recovering from gaining consciousness all over again, when something hit me in the sides. An intense jolt spread through my body. Accompanied by an even more intense blast of heat, I almost thought I had been left at the bottom of a volcano just waiting to erupt.I felt beads of sweat slide down my face, but that wasn't all. A dull ache nagged at me from the back of my skull and I could swear I was this close to exploding. For some strange reason, I couldn't feel my limbs,

    Liliana's POV My heart thundered in my chest throughout the journey home. No matter how hard I tried, it wouldn't calm down. I even did a number of breathing exercises ranging from counting from one to a certain number, and even counting the many cars that sped past us on the road, but nothing was working. I even tried meditating and ignoring the problem at hand.Maybe if I kept on with it for so long, the problem would disappear. Perhaps, if I pretended that all of what had happened in the hospital ward was nothing but a hallucination, all of it would disappear. I pressed my eyes shut, willing everything to go away. I had no idea how, but maybe if I kept my eyes closed for too long, it would actually work.I wasn't exactly sure how much time I had spent with my eyes closed, but a small part of me knew it was a lot. I had pressed my eyes shut the moment Mike had pulled me out of the hospital ward. I couldn't even bring myself to look at him in the face. He had grabbed onto my hand

    Liliana's POV My mind whirled with a million and one questions and thoughts. They were all mumbled up and jumbled together, but one thing stood out perfectly fine. The fact that I was in trouble, or about to be, rather.I stared at the young man in front of me. It has been over an hour since he gulped down the glass of milk I had offered him. Over an hour since a blanket of red rashes spread across his skin. Not only that, his nose had taken on a sickly shade of green, and his eyes, they were puffy and almost red. If I didn't know better, I would have said they were on the verge of popping out from his skull.Actually, I didn't know better, so what if they were about to burst from his eye sockets?I shook my head, but it did nothing to push the fear and worry I was feeling. Anxiety swirled in the pit of my stomach, and no matter how hard I tried to get a hold of it, it didn't work. I was nervous, nervous because the probability that I was going to be arrested for murder seemed t

    Liliana's POV I hadn't even thought it through before pressing my lips against his. Perhaps it had to do with the fact that if I gave it too much thought, the chances that I was going to chicken out of actually doing it were high, and I was only going to regret not taking my chance, sooner or later.I didn't want to be the girl to regret, so I acted without thinking. I pressed my lips against Jason's.Unlike the former kisses we had shared, this one was different, and I could already tell the moment our lips touched each other. While the others were rushed with intensity slipping in and out of our mouths, this was the complete opposite. It was warm and slow, and it made my stomach churn. In a good way of course.Not only that, his touch was gentle, and I found myself leaning into him. Unlike the Jason I knew, or more specifically, the Jason that adored his wild kitty, his kiss warmed me up from the inside, and what made it all the more worth it, was the fact that it wasn't in any

    Liliana's POV For the next couple of minutes, I stood rooted to my spot. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't bring myself to move. It was said that a tiny part of the brain was in charge of each and every movement that went down in the human body. Without that part, or if it were to be slightly damaged, then there was no way you would be able to move a finger, talk more of your entire body.As I struggled to figure out why I couldn't move, a tiny thought made its way to my mind.Had my brain shut down somehow? But if it had, how was I still able to stand and even think?I had barely asked myself that question before something else popped up in my mind. It was an answer to my question, and somehow, it didn't exactly make me feel better.I was in shock.If a sorcerer had come here a couple of minutes back to tell me all that would play out after my little sparring session with Jason, then best believe I was going to laugh my head off.I willed the thoughts to disappear, but

    Liliana's POV The moment I stepped into the school hallway, my gaze landed on the small group of people gathered in the corner. It was a Monday morning, and honestly, it was a sore sight, even for me to see. On most Mondays, most students miled about in the hallways, each and everyone eager to get to their classes. They never missed their first classes, but with the crowd gathered just in front of me, I wasn't sure the first class was even going to hold.My ehes glanced around the hallway, and a small wave of sadness washed over me when I didn't see Ciara. She was my backbone when it came to things like this and I hated not having her around. Were she here, she would have already figured out why the other students were gathered at the corner and what they were looking at. Now that she wasn't here, how the hell was I going to find out what was going on now?I hovered around in my spot for a couple more minutes, waiting for them to leave. The goddess must have heard my prayer beca
