(Camila's POV)

I looked at the door when I heard it open.

Ms. Evy peeked, the school nurse. She smiled as she saw me, and I smiled too.

While I stayed seated on the edge of the bed, she entered. I think I napped for about half an hour. Furthermore, this was my second time sleeping in this room.

At least this made me somehow feel better and rested from the whole tiring day of the Science Fair event.

"You took a nap?" Nurse Evy asked, proceeding to one of the shelves and getting something there.

"Yeah. Leading Science Fair was quite tiring and draining. Thanks, anyway, for letting me sleep here and for not scolding me."

She just chuckled and gently shook her head at that and continued with what she was doing on the shelf.

I was preparing to leave when she suddenly remembered something and asked me about it. "Anyway, did you and Tray talk?"

I frowned. "Trey and me?" And then I shook my head. "No, we didn't. Why?"

"Oh! I thought you two talked because I saw him going out on the door from

    When I attended Biology class after that day, I approached Barbara and sat beside her while the professor hadn't arrived yet."Uhm, Barbara, where's Abigail? She isn't around today?" I asked, looking around, searching for the only Gregori that wasn’t showing.She gently shook her head. "She couldn't make it today. Fever."I nodded. Fever… But I knew that wasn't the case. I saw everything that happened yesterday."Why? Do you need something on her?" Barbara asked.Our eyes both flew on Trey sitting in front of us when he glanced at the two of us as if eavesdropping.Oh, before I forget, I need to be always reminded to be cautious because they have strong senses. They can hear and smell almost everything…I looked at Barbara again and shook my head. "Nothing. I just asked because I noticed she wasn't around."After that, I went back to my seat and avoided looking at Trey, even though I knew it was kind of distracting me, feeling that he had his eyes on me most of the time.The second ti

    He wasn't so surprised. He just remained looking into my eyes. "Werewolves…" he repeated what I just said as he nodded. I also did not break eyes with him. He sighed harshly. "Since when did you know about it? And how?" His voice was becoming lower and lower and getting more dangerous. "The day Abi was attacked by demon horses in the bush. I followed you secretly from school to that isolated place. You and Jude fought them. You killed those creatures…" One side of his lips twitched. "So, you saw it. I killed them…" "But it was because they attacked Abigail first, and you just protected your family! You did not kill them for fun or because you only liked so. You had a reason. And… I understood…" He chuckled in sarcasm. "I do not kill for fun? You aren't so sure about that, darling…" "I know you aren't as bad as you are trying to show, Trey!" He looked away and did not respond to that. I continued, "The day after, I had always been following you in secret. I had seen you transf

    Walking together in the corridor, Trey and I held hands. Everyone around us seemed to be looking at us; some even stopped what they were doing to stare. Some were stunned and delighted, some were green with envy, while others smiled and waved at us. "Are they together? OMG! They look so perfect!" "So, it was Camila who won Trey Gregori's heart, huh! What a lucky babe!" "Camila is also great, so Trey's lucky to have her, too!" "Agreed! Wow, I like them both!" "Huhu! The game's over! Trey is now taken!" "I wish I am Camila!" I couldn't help but feel good with those good comments I could hear. But, of course, not everything was pleasant. They were also negative comments from obviously jealous people. "Why, of all girls, it has to be Camila?! I mean, there are other women there that's obviously prettier than her!" "Right! I don't think she's any deserving!" And, of course, upon hearing that, Trey reacted and was about to scold those girls, but then I held his hand tighter and s

    Every moment and every day spent with Trey Gregori was worthwhile…During lunch breaks, I was all the time with the Gregoris, and I got to know more about them, bonded with them, and they were actually fun to be with.Jude and Barbara, as usual, would be the funny jokers in the group, always throwing their different entries that would make us laugh and chuckle.But most of the time, it seemed like Trey, and I had our own world. We talked together like it was just the two of us, and we would talk a lot about anything without getting bored whatsoever.During study and reviewing time, we've always been together in the library, too. If there were things I didn't understand or weren't clear enough in the lessons, I would just ask him, and he would explain them to me until I would finally get them. And likewise, that was what he was doing, too, when there was stuff he found difficult to comprehend. He would ask my opinion. It has always been helping and lifting each other up.I could even s

    "This is Noah?" Trey spoke, recognizing that he felt my presence though he wasn't looking my way yet because he was still focused on the photo.I looked at the said picture frame and gently nodded. "Yeah. That's him."His gaze finally found my eyes as he unbelievably shook his head. "I can't believe you were right when you said I really looked like him."I smiled, tilted my head, and walked my way to the couch. "Well, at least now, you know I wasn't lying."He followed me.I put the food tray on the mini table and gave Tony his cat food.I sat beside Trey.He was looking around the quiet house, appearing to be searching for something or maybe someone…When his eyes found mine, he finally spoke his mind. "Where's your mom? Isn't she around? Are you living alone?"I sighed. That suddenly made me feel a bit heavy."I've been living by myself in this house for years now. Thank God I found Tony and I no longer have to be alone," I smiled weakly as I glanced at Tony who was enjoying his foo

    Trey's hand gently caressed my back until he reached my waist, drawing me closer to his body...We were already drowning in that feeling, and it was like a fire was flaming greatly, not until he stopped and carefully pushed me away.Both panting and catching our breaths, I looked at him in disbelief, confusion, and anticipation of the supposed flame."Why did you stop?" I asked in a very low voice.He looked away, and he turned cold. "This is wrong.""Wrong? Why?""This shouldn't happen."I was still about to ask another why but he already stood up, so I stood up too."I'll be leaving now," he said."Are you sure? Don't you want to stay longer? I thought you might want to play with Tony more?" Oh, I knew how pathetic I sounded! Even using Tony as a reason for him to stay when he no longer wanted to do so!"See you at school, Camila. Gotta go home now," he continued, and he kissed my forehead.All I could do was watch him as he walked away while I was glued to my feet.So, that was it?

    "Camila!" Trey gently held my arm, and that made me stop. "Let me explain. What you saw—between Kelsey and I—it wasn't what you were thinking!”I looked at his eyes angrily. "Oh, really?!" I couldn't even help the bitterness that struck in my throat."Yes!" he surely affirmed."But you two were d*mn kissing, and my eyes couldn’t be lying!" I continued hissing, this time sounding weakly."To make it clear, she kissed me. I didn't kiss her back. Did you even see me move and reciprocate what she did? You didn't, of course, because I also didn't expect Kelsey would actually do that. I was, in fact, shocked she could do such a thing!"I looked away when I realized he was right. I didn't see him react nor move when Kelsey kissed him. He didn't also kiss her back. He didn't even seem to like what she did.Anyway, there were still questions in my head!"Why were you absent yesterday? Why didn't you show up? It wasn't true that you were not feeling well, was it?"He nodded admittingly. "Yeah.

    His lips went down on my neck, making me moan in pure pleasure…This tasted so d*mn good!He opened my legs and made me feel his erection inside his jeans. To feel him more, I encircled his waist with my thigh.My beautiful shoulder was exposed as he began unraveling the zipper at the peak of my back and letting the sleeve fall into my arm. His lips found it and bathed it with kisses.What I did was to also remove his shirt which he gladly obliged and even helped me removing it until it slipped on the floor which we didn’t really care about. His hot topless body, showing his right-in-places abs and muscles ignited more my desire to have him completely.“You really have a great body, Trey…” I whispered in his ear my honest opinion.It turned him on.He bit my earlobe and whispered back, “I know, but still, thanks. You, too. You’re not only beautiful, you’re also sexy, and I can’t wait to have you!”I felt like my eyes were burning with fire of lust. I drew my body touching his, and by

    SIX MONTHS LATER... "Long live the newlyweds!" "Best wishes!" Everyone cheered and applauded after Trey and I were declared husband and wife. He lifted my veil to kiss me and I responded eagerly as I wrapped my arms around his neck. Everybody was happy for the both of us and they wished us a healthier and abundant marriage, most especially the Gregoris—Trey's parents, cousins, and even his brother, Noah. "Congratulations, lovebirds! Remember our deal? You're going to spend the rest of your lives making each other happy every single day, okay?" He reminded us. Both Trey and I nodded sincerely. Above everyone in the celebration hall, the two of us were the happiest ones. Genuinely happy that finally we were able to turn our dreams into reality. He tapped Trey's shoulder and they gave each other a warm brotherly hug. "Thank you so much, Noah. Thank you for understanding and thanks for giving way for our true happiness," I said from the bottom of my heart. And for the last time,

    Noah brought a chair, placed it beside me, and sat on it. He was also looking after his brother."There wasn't any single time that I could remember I had been a good brother or at least treated him in a kind way…" he spoke, breaking the silence between us.I looked at him, and then he continued, "But you know what's ironic? That was despite me obviously despising my own brother, he has always been there for me. He was saving me, protecting me. Even before, since we were young and I wasn't yet aware of his existence, of my real identity, he was already helping me in silence. He always got my back, and though he wasn't getting anything in return, he was always willing to do something for me because he always wanted to see his brother being so well.”I knew it. I have really fallen crazy in love with an absolutely selfless man!"You know what, since then, he's really been there and always ready to save my life from harm or any danger. He never leaves me... Even if his own life would be

  • Paradise in the Alpha's Arms   78- "Without realizing..."

    (Camila's POV)Walking back and forth to the wide ground of the residences of the Gregoris, my heart seemed to uncalm from its fast and hard pounding because I'd been waiting for Trey's troops to come back from the battlefield, where they had to fight to get Barbara after she was abducted.I couldn't take it easy. I could not even calm down. I felt bothered and scared that something might happen, especially to Trey and to Noah. Yes, both of them went there. As the ruler, Trey led the troops, while Noah insisted on coming with them because he also felt responsible for saving his family member.Seconds later, a siren on the whole building created a loud noise, indicating that the troops had already returned, and they were successful in getting Barbara back!The main gate opened and the first voice I heard, aside from the noises of the feet of the troop members running and hurrying, was Abigail's screaming and crying, "Trey is badly wounded! Trey is badly wounded, everybody!"My world sa

    (Camila's POV)Noah and I went home after that long and draining double engagement night."Good night, Noah," I told him and was about to go to my room when he called me in a low, deep voice."Camila…""Hmmn—" I turned around to look at him, but I was surprised when he pulled my hand and brought me very close to his body.He held my waist tightly, and his eyes screamed desperation, hunger, longing, and sadness…"Noah, what are you doing—" I was cut to my words when he claimed my lips."Noah!" I tried pushing him gently on his chest, but when I felt like it was to no avail because he wouldn't let me go, I stopped, and instead, I just responded to his kisses.It was a responsibility of mine, wasn't it? He's my boyfriend, and he's kissing me, therefore, it's my responsibility to return his kisses. I responded to it as I should, as I obliged.He only freed my lips when he stopped, but his face remained very close to mine. He brought our foreheads touched.His breathing was deep, and the l

    (Trey's POV)I could just watch her from afar… She was walking out of the hall and walking away from everybody, from where I stood…"Congratulations on your engagement," one of the seniors in the pack went to the table where my fiancée—Beth—and I were standing.We smiled at him and nodded and thanked him, then we granted his invitation for a toast.He proceeded to talk and have fun with other guests and invitees, and the cycle just went on and on every time anybody would approach to congratulate us and have a toast. We would smile at them, thank them, and toast our drinks."Trey, Beth, you really look great together. We wish nothing but abundance in your upcoming wedding," dad said happily when he went to us.Beside him and clinging to his arm was mom, who was also smiling happily upon nearing to us."Thanks, mom and dad."They both gave me a hug.And that's what Beth did, too. She greeted them, giving respect to elders, as well as her being their future daughter-in-law."I'm really g

  • Paradise in the Alpha's Arms   75- "Beth..."

    I saw Trey from the glass door stopping and taking a look at me for the last time. He saw me and Noah hugging. I could see the hurt in his eyes, and yet he chose to shrug it off and totally went away.I knew that starting with this, I had lost him forever. He walked out of my life…After our hug, Noah cupped my face and almost endlessly thanked me for not leaving him, and for choosing him instead of Trey."I'm sorry, my love. I couldn't help it. I'm so happy and delighted that it's really still me that's in your heart even after all these years!"I simply forced a smile though it was hard to do so because my heart just honestly felt so heavy at the moment.To be frank, I chose him for a reason even though I knew within me who really my heart wanted. But I disregarded the thought. I'm happy that Noah is back and he's alive, and now we'll be able to continue what we thought we had lost several years back. I should just focus on that and give Noah my full attention and love because I alr

  • Paradise in the Alpha's Arms   74- "Hearing him..."

    (Camila's POV)"How have you been, Camila?" Trey asked with a low broken voice when we agreed to meet one day to finally talk about us."I'm doing fine. How have you been, too?" I asked back while not looking at him.It's been a week since the big revelation came, and yet I'm still, even up to this day, affected by what I just have discovered. I guessed everybody still is.He smiled a little and nodded. "I'm alright. I'm glad you asked."I finally looked at him. "What are you going to tell me, Trey? I need all the truth, please."He sighed a bit heavily and nodded his head. "Okay. I'm telling the whole story to you…"He started from the first time he knew he actually had a brother and Noah was sent away from home to grow up and be trained to be independent and strong in all challenges of life, how Trey played being the shadow and guide and protector of the crown son and the supposed Alpha of their clan."During that afternoon when the tragedy happened, I was also there, Camila. I saw

  • Paradise in the Alpha's Arms   73- "Hide from me..."

    After that reckless move I made, I never dared to do it again anymore or do something like that. I backed myself off, especially from their relationship. I could not possibly do anything to ruin them and mess up the plan.I just continued to watch over my brother as per my seemed-to-be lifelong task and assignment to my family. I didn't dare anymore to get close or approach Camila again just like I did that day. And I learned to move on my own. I should respect their relationship given the fact that Noah is my brother and he is about to become the Alpha and ruler of the pack while Camila is to become his Luna and wife.I tried forgetting my feelings for my brother's girlfriend and though it was hard because my own heart seemed to betray me at all time, I still fought it and instilled in my mind that I should really leave them alone because it's obvious that the two of them are the ones meant for each other. I am just a guardian and witness of their love.I also taught myself that I sh

    One time, it was so reckless of me to have found my feet directing to where exactly Camila was sitting.She was at one of the tables inside a restaurant in a mall, and she was waiting for Noah because, basically, they agreed to have a date that day.I also wanted to feel and experience what it would be like if I stood next to her if I ever talked to her, and she would speak to me. I just really wanted to be in my brother's shoes, even for a little while, especially regarding his relationship with his girlfriend.Soon as she saw me at the restaurant door, she called my name… Noah's name, to be exact, because she was waiting for him and she or they—both her and my brother—didn't even know my existence…"Noah!" She waved at me happily and excitedly.My heart jumped. It felt like my world had suddenly stopped, and I could only see the two of us. I wasn't even able to move my feet!She stood up, waved at me, and ran to me. I was taken aback, and my feet turned to jelly as she hugged me.D*
