CHAPTER 30She struggled against him at the risk of being sent away from the library forever. Who did this man think he was exactly?! Now she knew how Chris felt whenever she tried to hug him without his consent."I was spelled by Hailey's witchy nonsense. I had no idea where you were, dad wouldn't give me any clue", he scowled fiercely, disgusted at his father's attempt to keep him away from his mate. "I kept up with your posts on social media and knew exactly where to find you – Stop squirming!", he ordered.She froze, his alpha voice always gave her chills. He smirked triumphantly."So I enrolled, special privileges seeing as I'm now Moon stone's official alpha leader", he said proudly, ignoring how his hands were slowly but surely being pried away by Myla's strength.She had heard about it from Alphonse. Apparently, Alex had dueled with his father before his time and he had won."You were irresponsible enough to leave your pack huh!", She spat. He scowled at her. "I did it to bri
CHAPTER 31Noah steadied her and gently removed her from his person. "Don't you think it's time to come home, pretty lady?", he asked gently.Myla blinked rapidly. Home. Yes, that was where she was going before she collided head first into him. "Yeah I was on my way home", she held herself back from looking over her shoulder."Were you about to board a bus?", He asked accusingly, his voice bland.She cleared her throat. This was not the time to have this conversation. "Uh, I don't feel too good. Can we talk at home instead?", She rushed out, prepared to leave.Noah opened his mouth to answer before glaring at something above her head. She gulped and followed his gaze to see a ruffled and disgruntled Alex stalking over to her with murder in his eyes.Confusion superseded fear in her mind as she very pointedly observed that there was a small red drop at the corner of his mouth and he was covered in dust. Did the librarian deal with him? What kind of power would the librarian have to st
CHAPTER 32"Hush, she's asleep", Noah said, his body tensing, as if preparing for one of Chris' tantrums. "That's improper form you big oaf, you should cradle a sleeping person, not just lump them like a pliant log of wood", Chris dictated in a soft voice as he nudged Noah to go faster."Ah yes, sorry my good sir, I forgot you have experience carrying a lot of sleeping women", Noah whispered back sarcastically. She had to hold herself back from giggling and blowing her cover. She was primarily shocked. He didn't even order her death because his precious brother was carrying her.Noah followed Chris' words despite his sarcasm and her head rested more comfortably on his chest.Utter bliss. Utter bliss!All too soon, they got to her room. Noah seemed to debate entering, seeing as it was her room and all. He had no choice, he believed she was asleep so he would deal with whatever he saw.Luckily, she was neat so he wouldn't be traumatized.He lay her gently on the bed and removed her sh
Chapter 33The entire class failed the test, horribly. Except for Myla and Kollie. Due to this, they were swamped and surrounded by frustrated students questioning each other on what method of cheating the girls used.She remembered their professor hammering on the test, if they had cared enough to listen and study, they wouldn't fail at all. Myla frankly did not have time for this."Listen, y'all, Y'ALL!", she had to yell over the clamor of students. "PEOPLE!", Kollie yelled with her. The clamors continued. Ugh, what a pain.She packed her bag and rolled her eyes. These procrastination pioneers wouldn't let her enjoy her victory in peace here, she would hit a coffee shop with Kollie later She and Kollie escaped narrowly, leaving their coursemates to wonder where they went."Ugh I thought we'd never leave", Kollie rolled her neck to each side. Myla stretched tiredly.Their professor had spent roughly four hours berating their acquaintances, they had sat in the same spot and their
Chapter 34Myla burst out laughing. Kollie would never change, she found every form of eye contact with any kind of cute guy hot."You can have 'im if you want 'im", Myla chuckled.The lady furrowed her brows and squeezed her nose cutely. "Ew, I don't want him, you can keep him. He is a blight on my mental health now and you'll be paying my therapist", She replied matter of factly.Myla laughed. Disaster well averted.………Much much later.In the bustling confines of the mall, Myla navigated the bustling streams of shoppers with a practiced ease, her fingers hiding away in Noah's large hand. She didn't know how she did it, maybe it was so he wouldn't lose her in the crowd, but the moment they entered the mall, she reached for his hand and he actually firmly clapsed her hand.Utter bliss. The only thing threatening to ruin it was the fact that she saw the back of Alex's head at the entrance. Her mission for the day was to avoid him, and enjoy Noah's warmth.Noah, an oasis of tranquility
Chapter 35Myla's fingers curled tightly around Noah's arm as the mall's vibrant chaos engulfed them. Around them, shoppers bustled, children laughed, and the distant aroma of pretzels and coffee mingled in the air. Amid this orchestrated chaos, her brain buzzed with a ferocious intensity, debating between feigning deafness or facing the aggravating man that happened to be her mate.Before she could decide whether to answer, Alex's voice erupted likeyy a fire alarm, calling out her name again as though he was a drowning man at sea that needed her to save him.Noah's response was a study in restrained tension. His arm flexed under her grasp, and like a skilled tactician, he shifted, positioning himself slightly in front of her, as if he was protecting her from an oncoming storm.Maybe he was, she knew precisely how this scene was bound to unfold. That was why she had been trying to avoid it, but now, the trouble had come to her.Noah's eyes narrowed and an icy smile took over his featu
CHAPTER 36"That is one of the most twisted things I've ever heard in my life! You hurt me to get my attention?!", She asked harshly. She couldn't believe his audacity, coming here to stand in front of her to utter something as unhinged as that."Enough! You will come to moon stone, or I'll reject our bond", he threatened. Myla's eyes widened. She would suffer more than he would if he rejected their bond. He was the current alpha of the pack she was born in, his rejection would make her wolf unhinged, driving her into insanity or being a rogue. Many omegas had been known to kill themselves instead of suffering the psychological torture associated with being officially rejected by alpha leaders."You wouldn't!", She said, her voice shaky. He wouldn't. If he truly loved her, he wouldn't want her to go demented."Try me", he said coldly. Then Myla knew, she knew she would never be free from him. He was manipulating her to come home, she had no choice, it was either follow him, or go craz
Chapter 37Myla couldn't stop watching. Noah was so captivating with the way he sounded so commanding. Alex was all bruised and beaten up. She couldn't find it in herself to be sad about it, now he had scars to match the ones he had given her.As if sensing that she was looking, Noah turned abruptly and made eye contact with her. She quickly bent down like Noah couldn't see her.She heard him sigh. "But not while the pretty lady is watching". She groaned and sat up properly, he discovered her."Wh–who the hell do you think you are?!", Alex spat, trying and failing to throw a punch with his mangled hand."I", Noah grabbed the man's hair and forced him to kneel. "Am", he made him look up at him."...", he smiled a bone chilling smile, his eyes flashing a deep purple.Myla strained her ears, she didn't catch the last part and it was driving her insane. She saw bone deep terror descend upon Alex and he started to plead desperately. Myla's eyes widened. Alex begged no one, what did Noah
