Ash's POV

I wasn't exactly sure what to say, so I glanced at my friends, but from the looks in Luke's eyes, I knew that he was completely baffled by the situation. His eyes were hard, contrary to Sage, who looked soft and ready to give in at any moment.

"I can't believe we are even doing this," he said, his voice expressive as he stepped forward, his eyes flashing. "We shouldn't be bargaining with you; you are in no position to say anything at all."

"Am I now?" he asked, his knife pressed a little more to her neck. I could tell that he was about to make a rash decision that would definitely cost him his life, but I was afraid of it costing Cassie's life also.

"Please," I said to Luke, putting my hand on him. I knew how much he loved his sister and didn't want her to die, so why was he actually acting like this? Luke glanced at Cassie, his eyes rigid as if trying to tell her something. His eyes were fixed on her, but he didn't see anything else, staying in his position with hardly any

    Cassie's P.O.V.The days were lovely now, as I went to school and went about my daily life, knowing that I had my friends to call upon if anything went wrong. Sage had made me his personal mission. I knew that he was in love with me, but really, what he was doing at that moment was too much. He just kept on checking up on me, picking me up from work and stuff like that. At first, I thought that Luke would say something about it or probably even fight him for that, but Luke seemed to have made his peace with the gloomy romance between us, and I couldn't be more happy. A couple of times he even took me over to his house where we had a wonderful time. How would the time I spent with the very alpha of the park not be wonderful? But then we left each other not too long after that, and I continued with my life.Although Luke had let me have some fun with him, he forbade me from ever spending the night at Sage's place, like that was going to be even possible. I stayed a couple of nights, bu

  • The Badboy Bully Is My Alpha Mate   First kiss

    SKYLAR"Go kiss that disgusting geezer ogling at us and we’ll give you back your notebook. No kidding this time. We swear!" Giselle shrieked over the loud music, placing a hand on her chest, and her minions nodded robotically in agreement. She burped wildly, a huge sign that the booze was finally sinking in.I was a tad away from breaking down. Dealing with bullies since I got into high school has been the most traumatic experience of my life. Giselle and her minions go out of their way each day to make my miserable life even more miserable. Seizing my notebook in school today, right after they bashed my head against the wall, marked today as one of the worst days of my life. As usual, they left me their notes forcing me to do their homework, and in exchange, they would give back mine.The homework was worth 60 marks and losing it would be a huge taint on my straight-A reputation, so of course, I accepted. I got home early and finished it up. My head had hurt the whole time from hitt

  • The Badboy Bully Is My Alpha Mate   Date for the night

    SKYLARAs a typical teenage girl, best believe I've fantasized about my first kiss and how it’s gonna be one of the dreamiest and most magical moments of my life. I watch a lot of home videos and drool whenever the couples kiss. Then deep down I prayed that my future mate would be a great kisser and I wouldn’t be so bad either.The bottom line is, my first kiss has always been a huge deal for me. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I would be losing it to some stranger. Except, he wasn’t just any stranger, no, he wasn’t a stranger at all. I knew him. Hell, everyone in here should know him. Everyone in the Pack, both old and young, must have heard of him. He was a big deal. The only son of our great Alpha Damon. Filmonth’s high bad boy. A trendsetter. The IT guy of the Pack. The MVP of the basketball team. The kryptonite of every girl in school. The literal god of Filmonth High. Ash. Ash Gunner. I can't believe I'm sharing a kiss with Ash Gunner!A stray moan left my lips

    SKYLARI arrived at school the next day with my heart in my mouth. The thought of Giselle telling everyone what happened kept me awake and terrified all night. I woke up this morning, lying about having a stomachache. But then I recalled that I had to turn in the homework, so I dropped the act and got ready for school. Still, I was freaking out all the way leading here.Stepping into the school gave me monstrous chills. But so far, no one has said anything to me. I was still invincible to everyone. I hope it stays quiet for the rest of the day. I’d be glad to know I worried over nothing.I put in my lock combination, opened my locker, and took out my books. From the corner of my eyes, I caught sight of Giselle and her minions making their entrance. I turned sharply, forcing my face inside my locker and praying so hard that she wouldn’t recognize me. And she didn’t. or maybe she did and decided to let me off, I don’t know.The bottom line is, she didn’t come for me and that gave me so

    SKYLAREnding my two-hour class with a yawn and a stretch doesn’t mean that I didn’t enjoy the class. No, on the contrary, it was entertaining, captivating, and everything a good class should be. The best thing about Filmouth High was the teachers and their unique ways of putting the teaching out there and getting you absorbed instantly. It didn’t matter if I was a League A or a League C. Having the chance to be here was more blessings than I could count."Everyone, hand your notes to Skylar. She’ll bring it to my office in twenty minutes. Don’t keep me waiting." The teacher announced as she arranged her books in her arms and headed out of the class. The students did as they were told and soon, there was a pile of books on my desk.I arranged my stuff, ready to leave, but Giselle and her girls made their entry, heading towards me. Fear tied me in knots on seeing them. I took steps backward, but Giselle gave me a firm push that made my butt hit hard on the chair.She glared at the stu

    SKYLAR"When I kissed you last night, your eyes dilated. I thought it was just a mere shock. Now I know it was more than that. It was recognition. You knew who I was from the get-go,""Yes," I wasn't sure what he was hinting at. So what if I knew him from the get-go?"You pretended like you didn't. Skylar West." I never knew my name could sound so cold until he said it. And I never gave him my name either."You also knew who I was from the get go?""Nah. I didn't. It wasn't until I saw you in the hallway that I realized I had to know you. You're from the league C class, right?"I nodded. "No wonder we never met until now. What are the chances?" He scoffed, stuffing both gloved hands into his pockets.His condescending tone snapped at my pride. League C was a class of Omegas and commoners. And he just pointed out the fact that we were too below him, and he had no business with us. So yeah, what were the chances of us meeting until now?He sure was a blunt guy. Cold and blunt. It stil

    SKYLARI had once read somewhere that being a need had a negative impact on the mind. “Consequences of social awkwardness and exclusion include wild imaginations, hallucinations, and even hearing things and detachment from your true self…”I guess they weren’t that far off the mark about hearing things because there was no way that the hottest guy in school, cold-blooded thief of my first kiss, and most wanted bad boy of Finmonth was asking me to be his girlfriend.His eyes glanced at me for a while before falling back on the road with an innocence I felt was made up.“Well…” he asked.“Well what?” I shot back almost instantly.“Well, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MY OFFER?”“You have got to be kidding me!” My voice went a bit over the top as my anger crept closer to the final explosion.“What could you possibly have to lose?” He spoke with that unsettling casual tone that was unnerving.“Basically, you would have the rare opportunity of dating the son of the alpha, and I would also, in turn,

    Skylar's POVI woke up this morning with what felt like a bone lodged in my throat. The conversation from yesterday still lingered in my mind, like that stubborn coffee stain that everyone sees but no one can remove. Every moment of our conversation replayed in my head, amplifying my discomfort.I wished the ground would open up and swallow me, but I knew the moon goddess wouldn’t grant such a request. The morning sun felt too bright and too indifferent to my misery.Dragging myself out of bed, I hurried through my morning routine, feeling a knot of anxiety in my stomach. The bus ride to school was a blur of uncomfortable faces and unsettling stares. Wedged between an elderly lady who muttered to herself and a rebellious teen absorbed in her phone, I felt like an outsider in my own life.The relief I felt when the bus finally reached the school gate was almost overwhelming. As I stepped off, I was met with a few curious glances, which I carefully avoided. I was becoming adept at manag

  • The Badboy Bully Is My Alpha Mate   The hostage negotiation

    Ash POVWe all stayed rooted to the spot, except maybe for Sage behind me, who had taken a subconscious step back. Maybe it was a good idea for us to back away after all—maybe back away out of the room entirely so that I could give Sage a good pep talk and make him gather himself and understand what was actually at stake here.Weakness was the one thing that would actually cost Cassie her life, nothing more. If we played this right, from the position of strength that we actually were in, then we could get her back, though it wasn't certain if we could get Richard and bring him to book along with that; that would actually be asking for too much. One small mistake and our victory had turned into a break-even, or maybe a possible loss if we didn't play our cards right and made another small mistake to add to the former one.I looked at our opponent, the one that we had nearly defeated, for a couple of seconds and finally decided to at least talk with him. If he killed Cassie, then the en

    Luke's POVEverything was closing in on me, and I knew that it was too late for me to run away by now. My chance was gone. Looking at my opponent, who was now getting into the attack once more and covering all spaces for me to run into, I knew that he wouldn't let me go. He knew just what I could be thinking at this time, and he also knew that most likely I would try to run away. He was doing everything to prevent that, not wanting his prey to go.I knew that when he won this, he was going to put me along with Cassie and torment us for a very long period of time before killing us eventually. Yes, he had given me my chance to join him, not that I would ever do that, but I hadn't agreed to him, and now he was going to make me pay the price. I was pretty sure of it.I felt a certain feeling of discomfort, knowing how things were about to end, but still staying here anyway. I should be doing my best to run away and break free from his grasp, but I didn't do that for some reason. I just st

  • The Badboy Bully Is My Alpha Mate   Luke's fear

    Luke's POVIt was honestly very troubling how I was still struggling with Richard after such a long time, and how someone would have thought that by now I would be done with defeating him, especially after I had come to the brink of beating him so many times now. But for some reason, he was always bouncing back and staying up above water, to the point that I was actually pressured by him at times, and even now, I was still pressured. Honestly, I was starting to wonder whether there was something wrong with me, or whether we were just evenly matched. Every time I came to the brink, ready to defeat him, there was one small mistake, or one small thing that happened to make him come back again. And then we started the sequence all over again.It dawned on me now that I would not be able to defeat him, not today, not now. I wasn't strong enough. In fact, I would even be considered lucky to not be defeated by him myself. Remembering clearly how easily he had taken me on previously, I knew

  • The Badboy Bully Is My Alpha Mate   A sweet victory in sight

    Sage's povThe first thought that came to my mind after he said that was that this was simply too good to be true. I couldn't believe it even now. However, that was a fact. But if he was actually the one keeping Sage from coming here, then he was a true hero. He was the one doing much more work than us and our soldiers who brought the army to the gate and the fight from the outside, because he is definitely the one that brings the fight from the inside, which is the real fight.I looked at Ash, wanting to see how convinced he was. And from the looks of it, he seemed completely convinced by it. When I thought about it, I didn't see any other reason why this could be happening. For one thing, I hadn't heard from Luke at all, indicating that there was a good chance that he was busy. And the fact that, at the same time, Richard was nowhere to be found, made it a little too much to be a coincidence. Most likely, the two of them couldn't be here because they were busy with each other, fight

  • The Badboy Bully Is My Alpha Mate   The unexpected battle

    Sage's POVI didn't really know whether I was safe when I started easily winning the entire fight. It was not much of a battle anymore. If anything, it was starting to become something of a slaughter. I didn't see any reason why I would have it so easy fighting against the man that I was up against—the man who had been rumored to be far stronger than a lot of people and would be a very formidable enemy.I had heard that he was planning some tricks for me, and I also knew that he was skewed and poisoned because that's what I heard from the assassin the time we asked him about Richard. That was enough information to be wary of him, knowing that he could actually be planning something else entirely while we were busy here. But as it happened, maybe he was just all talk after all, and there was nothing to actually be fearful of. He seemed pretty tame to me right now, not at all a threat, no matter how I looked at it.In my planning, I decided to draw back a little and let my men do some o

    Ash's POV I join in and things get easy The progress was slow but steady. I knew that it wouldn't be long before we finally reached my territory. Then, I would have the opportunity to take back what was rightfully mine.I could almost see it happening already. As my soldiers marched forward, each with a certain determination in their eyes, I was sure we stood a huge chance of winning this. The moment I got to Richard, I would make sure to rip his eyes out and kill him for everything he had done, especially for killing my father. Until then, I had to make do with what I had and bide my time until everything was set.I had the patience to wait because I had been waiting for this moment all my life. So, even if it was just a couple more hours, I could wait again. It would end in my victory.Setting my eyes on the bigger prize, I kept moving, knowing it would be worth it. I was starting to get tired after marching for what seemed like forever. The soldiers, for their part, seemed much s

  • The Badboy Bully Is My Alpha Mate   The commander's gambit

    Sage's POVMy men started marching forward after I gave the order, each of them moving valiantly. These were pretty much all my forces because the ones I left to defend my home weren't too many anymore and wouldn't really account for much. In other words, if an attack actually started on my home while I was gone, then it would be pretty much defenseless against this attacker, and they would be able to do some large amount of damage to it.It was very precarious, but I knew that if I didn't take as many people as I could with me, then it was highly unlikely that we would win. I had no idea how many people Richard had with him, but I knew that he definitely had a lot of people with him, and that if I took only half of my army, it might not be enough, even when added to what Ash was bringing.I didn't want to take any chances on this because it was pretty much my only chance. If I was going to help, then I was going to help him completely and make sure that we won this. If we didn't win,
