"Are you really planning to follow me all day?" I asked as Gray continued to match my steps, currently walking along the school corridor. Gray was indeed following me through two classes I was taking, without even taking a break."Like I said, I'm taking the same classes you are. I'm serious," he replied, and for some reason, he sounded incredibly annoying."At least handle it properly first and let Miss Brenda know. Don't make me the reason you don't want to go to your own class," I said without stopping my pace."Don't worry, I promise not to mention your name if I get into trouble. I'll handle it myself," he answered, making me stare at him for a moment."But this time I'm going to the club room. I don't have classes anymore, and I intend to practice with Maudy and the others," I said again, hoping to stop his ridiculous behavior, but it was in vain because he showed no fear at all."I'll be swimming," and this time, it was me who stopped and looked at him with raised eyebrows."Co
Of course, I would decline his invitation. I didn't want the previous incident to repeat itself between us."You can call your friends like I suggested earlier, and you've seen, I've been in the water for too long. So, I need to rest and head home," I said, about to turn back. However, Gray suddenly pulled me quite strongly, and due to my reflexes, I unintentionally pushed him. I was sure he wouldn't be pushed easily, but for some reason, his body was actually pulled backward, and unfortunately, at that moment, Gray had already grabbed my arm, causing both of us to fall into the pool. I immediately tried to balance myself and resurface, and Gray did the same, but he seemed to find it amusing, laughing heartily, while I was roughly wiping my face."What are you doing? I told you I needed to rest," I said, slightly irritated by his forceful actions. However, just as Gray was about to respond, Maudy and the others had finished changing."What are you doing? You didn't intend to swim in y
Once again, the pain strikes, and even worse, I'm experiencing this pain right in front of Aurel. I have no idea what she's thinking about me now. Thankfully, I managed to keep my composure, as any change in front of her would surely frighten her. I hope Aurel is okay. I then attempt to steady my heavy breathing.As it happened before, the signs of my transformation are returning. I observe my hand turning into a half-Wolf form, and just as I imagined, it only lasts a few minutes before I revert back to my own body, still feeling the pain. But that's not the only thing on my mind right now; my thoughts are fixated on Aurel. I fear she might distance herself further, maybe even come to hate me. As these thoughts cross my mind, Brenda approaches me."Are you going through it again?" Brenda asks. We're currently in the Neutral dimension, so I simply nod."Yes, just like before. It only lasts for a few moments before I return to my original form," I reply, trying to close my eyes briefly
I don't know what possessed me at that moment, I was completely out of my mind when suddenly my hand pulled the jacket Gray was wearing. It felt like my hand moved on its own, following the words in my mind, and without much thought, I pressed my lips against Gray's. I could feel his body tense for a moment, he must have been shocked by my sudden actions. Even before the terrifying events ahead of me, I had resisted and been angry at him, but this time, I was the one doing the opposite.I didn't care anymore if Gray might get angry at me in return. What I wanted to do now was calm myself down. The kiss I gave Gray was purely out of curiosity, driven by my anxiety and worry when Gray suddenly disappeared in front of me.I could sense Gray responding to the kiss I initiated. His warm hand touched my nape and pressed it, deepening our kiss. His other hand pulled me by the waist, pulling me closer to his warm body. I didn't even feel the cold wind around us; all I felt was the heat boilin
I was genuinely surprised. I even stood up from my seat and looked at Aurel. This time, it wasn't just about my resurrection that I wanted to find out from the woman in front of me, but also about who she really was. She wasn't affected by my power to erase memories. She was completely immune to it. I immediately tried to hold her hand, believing that if she was truly human, I would be able to sense her blood flowing. I'd feel the fragility of her body. However, at this moment, Aurel's scent was so captivating, drawing me closer to her. I was now convinced that this resurrection had to do with Aurel, and what else could it mean?"Do you remember everything?" I asked to confirm, making Aurel nod."Yes, I remember everything. I remember the look of pain on your face. I remember how you disappeared suddenly in front of me," Aurel replied, making me even more certain that my power had no effect on her whatsoever."Do you want to try something?" I asked again, making Aurel fall silent befo
I gazed at Aurel, who was peacefully sleeping next to me on my bed. She looked so enthusiastic hearing my story about our clan, even though I didn't explicitly mention that we were werewolves. She was so eager that she even fell asleep, resembling a child listening to a fairy tale. Slowly, I withdrew my hand, which had been her pillow. I didn't want to disturb her sleep. I gently caressed her face, causing her to snuggle even closer to my chest. It was becoming increasingly difficult to control myself, especially with her tempting scent.I then directed my gaze to the crook of her neck, inhaling her scent deeply. Reluctantly, I got up from the bed. I needed to meet Rex immediately; there were many questions I needed to ask the half-human, half-wolf being."Meet me in the Neutral Dimension," I sent a packlink message to Rex before disappearing, leaving Aurel behind. I had placed protective regnum shields around our home to ensure her safety. After a few minutes, Rex arrived in the Neut
"What's all this?" Rex asked at the door of my room, looking puzzled as I stood in front of a large mirror, checking my reflection."I'm just looking at myself," I casually replied, making Rex click his tongue in annoyance."Come on, that's not what I meant. What's going on in your room?" he asked, glancing over at my bed where clothes were scattered, along with bags and shoes. I continued to stare at him before nonchalantly shrugging my shoulders."I'm just picking out an outfit," I replied, causing Rex to walk closer, his gaze filled with curiosity."Are you going somewhere?" he asked, to which I nodded while continuing to fix my hair."Where are you going and with whom?" Rex questioned again, sounding a bit like he was interrogating me. I turned around to face him."With a friend. Someone's taking me out to explore some new places. My dear cousin is kind enough to take me for a stroll. The last time, all she did was take me for ice cream, which wasn't enough," I said, eliciting ano
Our gazes met when I turned to look towards Gray. He was so close to me, almost trapping me between his body and the windowpane in front of me. I couldn't even release my stare from his intense gray eyes that were silently fixed on me.For some reason, it was difficult to escape Gray's gaze. Eventually, I felt his hand gently encircle my waist, and as his body pressed against mine, I could feel the warmth of his touch against my back."It looks beautiful," he said, causing me to blink in surprise. In the next moment, I couldn't fathom what was going through our minds. We simply drew closer, our lips meeting. I could feel the warmth of his full lips against mine as they started to move. The air around us seemed to shift, growing warmer as Gray pulled me even closer.I instinctively wrapped my arms around Gray's neck as our kiss intensified. His lips moved faster against mine, and his tongue intertwined with mine. I felt a powerful rush with each passionate kiss, and I found myself not
