Oliver's POVI admit for the first time in my entire life, I wasn't able to sleep because of a certain girl, and I couldn't believe it would be Victoria. Ever since I have learned that she is my mate, I despise her even without seeing her first, and now that I have seen her, she makes it worse by making me feel this way. I don't want to acknowledge the attraction I feel towards her because I don't want to be laughed at by the elders. And there is no way I will eat all the words I said to the elders that I would never fall in love with her.I told them that I don't like Victoria to be my mate, and I would find on my mate in time and my own pace, and I told them I would only acknowledge someone to be my mate if she could turn my world upside down, yet seeing Victoria made me feel something I didn't know existed. And she turned my world more than I could imagine. And right now, as I was lying on my bed thinking that her room was just across from mine, I couldn't stop the pounding of my h
Oliver's POVI drove away from the school parking lot feeling so pissed with Victoria, and when I saw her on the bus stop craning her neck from side to side, I was curling my fists hard on the steering wheel because she made me lose my patience. I pressed the button of the horn loud enough for her to hear, and when she darted a glance at the car, I could see the frustration on her face right away, and when I stopped the car in front of her, I could see the anger on her face that matched with my own.I yelled at her to get in, and I felt so frustrated when she pretended she didn't hear or see me. And she never listened when I told her she would regret it if she did not get inside the car. And when I realized she would never give me her attention, I got out of the car and carried her, and I hated myself that why do I need to feel the thrill as I put my hands on her waist, and I couldn't explain the emotion that I felt for Victoria. It felt so raw that I could feel the racing of my heart
Oliver's POV"What exactly is your job, Oliver? Am I a job to you? How dare you steal the spotlight from me? I never stop you from kissing your girlfriend in front of everyone, and when I was kissing Tim, you suddenly pulled me away from him; what is wrong with you? Do you know what you have done again?" She asked while I could see the anger all over her face as I drove away from the beach parking lot, and I was gripping the steering wheel harder than necessary.And I made Victoria madder when I didn't reply, and I focused my attention on the road, and I could tell if only looks could kill, I would be dead on the spot as she was watching me with total fury. And I hated her too, I can still feel the boiling anger inside me, and I hated myself for feeling this way. I felt glad she put on my jacket, and I can't deny I felt happy she was wearing it. It feels like she belonged with me. I shook my head why I was even thinking that way."My father told me he hired you as my bodyguard, are yo
Victoria's POVI can feel my entire face is still red as I settle myself inside his car. I bombarded Oliver with so many questions, and I couldn't stop myself from feeling so angry with him from the moment we left the beach parking lot, and what made me more furious was he ignored me; he didn't answer even one question.I can tell he was also mad at me, and I can tell the feelings are mutual, and I couldn't believe I put on his jacket, and I can't deny I love the feeling of inhaling his masculine scent. It feels so personal. I closed my eyes as I inhaled his natural scent, and I wondered why he needed to smell this good.I asked him again to confirm if my dad had hired him as my bodyguard. This time he turned his gaze at me sideways before letting out a heavy sigh, and I could tell he was still pissed about me, and I wondered why he looked so angry. Is it because I made a show and his girlfriend lost the crowd's attention, especially the boys.I wished I didn't ask him some questions
Victoria's POV"Good morning, Victory!" Tim greeted me with a broad smile showing his perfect white teeth, and I gave him one of my sweetest smiles."Good morning, Tim. It is so nice to see you early this morning!" I said, and he blushed right away, and I couldn't stop myself from giggling. As I tried to flirt with him, I avoided looking at the back to ensure my heart was safe since I didn't want to be distracted by Oliver's presence today. Not only that, I am hurt that he became showy with his personal relationship with Keisha, and I know I don't have any right to feel jealous because we have been enemies ever since the first day he arrived on our campus.And I couldn't stop myself from feeling so angry and devastated with him when I remember his words telling me he was willing to give me a kissing tutorial. Since I didn't want to be a loser in everything, I got the courage to walk closer to Tim.I was staring into his beautiful eyes, and I could tell he was swallowing his saliva, an
Oliver's POVThe moment I opened my eyes, I knew right away that I was still in my wolf form because I could tell by the sharpness of my eyes, and I was still on top of the mountain, and I was still lying on the big rock. And I realized how much I miss the forest and the chilly breeze from the trees.It was early dawn as I looked at the surroundings, and it was time for me to return to the city. I leaped from the big rock and ran downhill, and it felt invigorating; I loved the sense of my freedom, and I hated the idea that I needed to get back on the Winner estate.The moment I reached the bottom of the mountain, I transformed into my human form right away. I put on my clothes fast, and mounted on my big bike, and drove fast since I could tell no one will find out about my overspeeding. However, when I reached the highway, I was careful with my driving. I was still maneuvering with my big bike fast, but I made sure I drove within the maximum speed limit. I don't want to face another p
Victoria's POVI was fidgeting when Oliver insisted that I should ride on his big bike. I don't have plans to be with him. I wanted to be on the bus rather than to ride at his back because I knew, once I let myself go with him, my heart would betray me, and I am afraid if I could no longer hide my feelings for him. And even if it hurts me that he is with the cheerleader captain, I am still hoping that one day he will look at me with tenderness.I expected that he would like me too, but I know it is absurd. I need to stop myself because he is not even the ideal boy for me, and this is not me anymore since this is the first time I wish someone would like me badly. I never beg any boy to like me or to be with me because they always chase me around, and I'm just wondering why I am feeling this way towards Oliver.I ignored him all I could, and I tried to look away from his handsome face as possible, hoping that the bus would come right away. It feels like the odds were against me since th
Victoria's POVI was still shaking until I reached my room, and I couldn't believe that my plan to swim turned into a disaster. I hated myself for why I kissed Oliver back hungrily, and now he knew that I liked him, and I felt so angry to myself that I gave him enough reason to humiliate me.I will make sure he will pay for what he has done to me. Why does it feel so wonderful to be in his arms? And it felt so natural when he kissed me, and I couldn't be wrong that he liked kissing me too, but the looked on his face told me everything that I needed to do; he doesn't like me at all.I was lying on my bed when I heard a knocking on my door, and I felt too lazy to get up. Still, I shouted whoever was outside my door to come inside my room, and I am sure it was only Celia; I was still wearing my red two-piece swimwear since I felt too tired to put on anything because I am still controlling my anger, and I hate that I couldn't stop thinking about his laughter mocking me.I could hear the o
Victoria's POVMy gut was telling me I could trust the man standing in front of me, yet my mind was instructing me to run. I am new to this werewolf thing, and I don't know what I should do, and I am afraid if he had seen me devoured my meal for the day, and I am just thankful, I have already eaten, or else I could have attacked him already.He looked intrigued, and the smile that I saw on his face was very comforting that I wanted to be in his arms. I could tell he was older than my father, and what fascinated me was he was wearing a suit early morning inside the forest, and I wondered if he could be Oliver's friend and if he was living on the other side of the mountain."Hello, my dear, how are you this morning?" He asked, and even his voice was soothing to my ears."Who are you?" I asked him with apprehension in my voice."Oh, I am sorry, I forgot my manners; I am Noel, and I am one of Oliver's friends. Welcome to Gallant, Victoria," Noel respon
Oliver's POVI was terrified when I got up from my bed, and I could no longer find Victoria, and I quickly put on my shirt, and I got shorts from the drawer. I walked out of my room in a hurry, and I could feel the racing of my heart as I ran through the hallways and to the stairs, and I found Carrie in the kitchen, and I felt so glad she was still smiling at me, I felt so worried if my girl had already attacked her. I took a deep sigh of relief, but I am still anxious where Victoria could be."Good morning, Oliver!" Carrie greeted me with a broad grin on her face, and I couldn't stop myself from smiling back at her, she has been my helper for so many years now, and even if she is a human, I find her reliable, and I trusted her."Are you looking for your beautiful girlfriend?" She asked, and I could see the happiness on her face. I always come here when I feel tired or stressed with the elders and my company, and I considered Carrie as family, and she knew I did
Victoria's POVI woke up in the arms of Oliver, and I could tell that he really satisfied my needs beyond what I could imagine. But another hunger has woken me up, and it was terrifying and disgusting. And I wonder if I can resist my urge to kill another living thing in my hands. I tried to go back to sleep while I could feel Oliver's naked body next to mine, but I couldn't go back to slumber, knowing I felt so hungry. I had only eaten one meal yesterday, and right now, I could hear the outcry of animals calling for me.I sat on the bed and leaned my back on the headboard, and I realized I was fully naked, but I couldn't feel the cold of Oliver's room even if the AC was blasting with cold air; I got up and opened the closet, and I was shocked to find gorgeous woman's wardrobe, and as I inhaled the fabric I could tell the clothes in the hanger are all new according to my taste. I am impressed that he has chosen the best apparel for me, but my face fell as I realized all
Oliver's POVI felt glad Victoria told me that she also couldn't leave without me, and it made me feel at ease that I would need not convince her to stay with me, and the way she looked at me with longings told me she had already stopped fighting herself. I know she wanted to show me she is still upset with me, but I made her understand it was for her own good, and I don't need to keep her blind anymore; I need to tell her about the possibility that she was a hybrid.I cook for Victoria, hoping she will stop her craving for fresh meat, but I know she is still under the goddess curse, which is the craving for raw meat after the transition. For others, it will last for one month, and I know hunting animals for food will never make her happy unless she had learned to hunt at an early age, and her ignorance about who she is made her so different from all of us. She turned at the age of eighteen while most of us will turn between eleven to fourteen years old."When w
Victoria's POV"Victoria, before anything else, allow me to say, I love you so much, and I just want you to know I will always be here for you. I know you are so upset with your parents and me, but you should know that they only wanted to protect you. I am aware that you have so many questions, and you need answers, and I will try my best to make you understand what is going on with you as of the moment." Oliver said while he took my hand."Your transition was successful because you turned into a werewolf, and you were able to shift back into your human form, and I felt glad you didn't find it hard on your part to return to your original shape," Oliver added."I already told you about who I am when you were in your wolf form, but it seems like you were too angry with me to remember everything I said back then. Werewolves shift at an early age, and in your case is an exception, and that is why many believed you were something different because this only happened
Victoria's POVBeing a werewolf appalled me, and now another thing happened that made me question my identity, and I wondered who I truly am? I could see the surprise that registered on Oliver's face, and I knew there was something about me that he was afraid to tell me yet. And I could feel my resentment towards my parents for not telling me anything.And I didn't want to see my dad and mom at the moment because I couldn't believe they hid something significant to my existence; what if something happened to them and Oliver wasn't by my side? What could have happened to me? I don't have any idea what to do with myself, and I could have harmed humans because I know when I was on my wolf form, I could feel the hunger for fresh meat, and I am sure if there is a human nearby, I could attack him.And if before I loved everything about myself, right now, I don't like even a single thing about me, and knowing I was a monster made me want to disappear forever. A werewol
Oliver's POVI wanted to run away and take Victoria with me when I saw our enemy, to keep my girlfriend safe, but I didn't want Victoria to think I was a coward. And I know my chance of winning against him would be so slim even if I am the strongest alpha all over our community because I need to keep Victoria safe and because he is a hybrid.He came from the North, and I know their Alpha wanted to have Victoria, and we all know their kind is dangerous to mess with, their pack was silent for a long time, and everyone believed that they had been waiting for their dark lord, the black wolf. And I could tell violence and killing innocent humans will be happening soon now that they are back.I felt glad when the black wolf showed himself to Victoria at the park, and he didn't bring his soldiers with him. He had been rumored to be living alone, but because of his unique strength and ability, many werewolves chose to follow him and make him their leader, and they worsh
Victoria's POVI wanted to vomit after I consumed the fresh meat of the deer, and just thinking about it made me queasy. I always wanted my steak to be well done, and I couldn't believe I devoured its flesh without cooking it, and the worst part I killed the deer with my own hands, and even if I felt stronger than before, I could feel the trembling of my knees because of what I had done.I know I felt so hungry, and I didn't realize I was on my wolf form for three days, and if not for Oliver, I didn't know what to do with myself. I felt so full, and I howled until I could feel my body start to shift, and I could feel the same pain, but this time it was abrupt changed. I felt so happy when I realized I had turned back into my human form since I could feel my toes, legs, and arms again, and when I looked at my body, I felt so horrified when it dawned on me I was naked.I was lying naked on the grass while I tried to cover my sensitive parts with my hands, an
Oliver's POVI could feel all of Victoria's pain and her disappointments with me and to her parents, and I couldn't blame her for being so angry with me. I wanted to comfort her and tell my girl everything would be alright, but how could she believe me when I kept her real identity a secret from her. She wasn't prepared for this, and I hated her parents too for doing this to Victoria.How I wish I had disobeyed Nick and told Victoria what she was, but I couldn't do it because I made a vow to Nick never to tell her daughter unless she was on her transition period. Victoria was yelling in pain, and the struggle she was having now made my heart pierce in too much pain as I watched her in her agony; there was nothing I could do to help her, and what made her transition difficult was her anger towards us.I could see the frustrations on her face when she asked me what was happening with her. It wasn't easy on my part to witness the love of my life undergo such anguis
