Mirco's Point of View"Here we go again," I mumbled after seeing Yumi get bullied for the nth time inside the cafeteria.Though this time, none of us bothered to help her. Our pack has already reconciled. They apologized to Avianna already once we returned here to the campus. We didn't collectively agree to let Yumi alone but somehow, we seemed to have the same thing in mind and that is to just ignore Yumi since we didn't want Avianna to overthink again. Besides, she's right. Yumi can really handle herself but she looks like she chose not to.Yumi seemed like she was waiting for someone to help her but when seconds passed by and no one had approached her, she lifted her head to look at our direction and her face looked surprised to see us just staring at her from our table."Huh, maybe Avianna's right after all. She just wants us to help her," I heard Zylene scoffed beside me. We all just shrugged and c
Zen's Point of View"Stop fidgeting for fuck's sake! Act like an Alpha for once!""Fuck you, I'm acting like one, you fucker!"I just snorted at Mirco before I turned my attention back to the elevator.I don't know if the elevator is just too slow or we're just too impatient right now because of what we realized but the both of us were getting irritated even through the smallest things.Seeing the full moon after hearing what Avianna had declared earlier in front of so many students, I just knew it was finally the time.I can't believe we'll finally mark each other.The door of the elevator opened and the two of us quickly entered. I hastily pressed the button on my floor."Geez, calm down," Mirco told me.I shot him a glare, "Says the one who can't even stop fidgeting.""I am not fidgeting, fucker!""Yeah, keep telling t
Third's Person Point of ViewTo Mirco and Zen,I honestly had no idea how to talk to you properly. I have so much to tell the two of you, but my mind's in chaos and all the things I wanted to say were jumbled inside so I resorted to just writing down whatever I wanted to tell you.I will start with apologizing. I'm sorry. I know these two words aren't enough to express how apologetic I am towards the two of you. I'm very much aware of how bad the damage of what I've done years ago, and I'm also aware of how I almost made you commit a grave sin because of my own selfishness and foolishness. I love you, but that wasn't the reason why I did that. It was my greed to have even just one of you to myself if I can't have the both of you.back then, I justified my actions by thinking that I did that for us, for our love. Even when I returned here, it was still the same mindset I had. But every time I see the both of you being so happy when you're with Avianna, I am slowly losing my resolve. Th
Avianna's Point of View"That freaking old man needs to get laid, geez. He's directing his pent up sexual frustration to us! Damn, I can't sleep for even an hour because of all the workloads that man keeps on giving to us! Can you believe he gave us six activities that need to be passed tomorrow? He needs to get a life outside university and stop stressing us out!"Mirco gently patted my shoulder while Zen reached for my free hand and softly caressed it in an attempt to comfort me. It doesn't seem much but it actually soothes me a bit. I guess mates' touch really does wonders."Take a deep breath first, love. And relax your face. Don't let that old man stress you out like this," Zen softly said.I did as he said. Once I'm calm enough, I took both of their hands and intertwined it with mine. I swayed it lightly as we walked towards whoever car they used today to fetch me.It's been almost two years since we graduated highschool. It wasn't easy after that. We argued several times becaus
Mirco's Point of ViewI ignored the excited yells of my blockmates as I quickly packed my things. I glanced at my wristwatch and saw that there's only twenty minutes left before Avianna's last class ends. Zen isn't available today since he needs to meet with his groupmates for their report in one of their major subjects. His class ended an hour ago but he couldn't come with me to fetch Avianna because of their report so I had to go to my mate's university as fast as I could. I don't want to keep her waiting even if it's just for a minute. I wanted to be the one waiting for her instead. I'd be more relieved that way. Because the last time we made her wait for more than ten minutes, there was this Alpha and two betas who bothered her at the gate of their university. That's one of the reasons why Zen and I didn't want her to attend a different university. It's not because we don't trust her or what, it's because she's too pretty and she attracts all kinds of men without her trying.Ye
Zen's Point of ViewI stomped my foot impatiently as we waited for someone to open the gate of Kayne's house. We've been clicking the doorbell several times and there's still no one who's opening it."Chill, man. Stop stomping your foot, it's annoying," Sullivan said, nudging my legs with his feet.I glared at him, "What's taking Kayne too long to open this freaking gate?"Avianna chuckled, slipping her soft hands on mine and intertwining it with hers, "Did you wake up at the wrong side of the bed, love? Let the guy pass just this once, it's his birthday."I almost rolled my eyes if it wasn't Avianna who said that. Pass my ass. I hate waiting if it's not Avianna.Thankfully, just before I could even say something in response to what she said, the gate opened and came out a panting Kayne."S-sorry! Have you guys been waiting?" He asked, almost breathless."We've been waiting for ages—""It's fine! You might be doing something that's why you didn't hear us," Avianna cut me off, which ma
Avianna's Point of View"What time do we fetch you?" Mirco asked me from the other line."I'll just text or call you once we're done. I'm not sure how long this term paper would take me.""Call us. Hamilton and I will just play here."I smiled, "Alright. Enjoy playing!"I let out a sigh once the call ended. I looked down at the table where my materials were scattered. This term paper I'm working on is stressing the hell out of me because I really couldn't bring myself to add more to what I started a few days ago.I've been trying to rack my mind to read so many related materials, but I just can't put it all together on my paper. It's making me frustrated.Times like this make me miss my mates' scent and pheromones. It soothes my mind. But I know I won't be able to finish anything if I'm with them. It's been a few days since Kayne's birthday. The three of us haven't had a proper hang-out since university dropped a lot of activities again on us. We only ate dinner at home and talked fo
Avianna's Point of View"Mom!" I beamed upon seeing my mom waiting for us outside. I quickly unbuckled the seatbelt and climbed out of the car to run in my mother's direction, leaving my mates inside the car.I enveloped her into a bone-crushing hug, "I missed you, mom!" She chuckled, hugging me back, "I missed you too, sweetie."I pulled away from her when I felt my mates' presence behind me. Mom smiled at them as she hugged each of them."Thank goodness you finally decided to visit us. You should visit your parents next. They missed you as well," Mom said, eyeing the two Alphas who rubbed their nape out of embarrassment.I shook my head while chuckling a bit. That's what I also told them."Where's dad?" I asked my mom, linking my arms with hers."In the living room. Come inside. Let's have dinner."I was literally pulling my mom to our house as I wanted to see my dad immediately."Daaad!" I exclaimed, running once again in my father's direction. He was seated on the couch, watching
Avianna's Point of ViewI looked back and forth between my mates and my mentor who were sitting across each other while I sat on the single couch.None of them spoke a word when my mates arrived, and Ryu didn't talk when I informed him that we're going to talk about Mr. Lim.And honestly? I am nervous.I don't know if he's mad that I told my mates about his situation with the old man because he hasn't uttered a single word about it and his expression remained blank. He didn't even ask anything!Then here goes my mates. I don't know why they're not initiating the talk when they were the one who told me they have news regarding that old man. They seemed excited on our call but the moment they entered my office, all that they said was a greeting for Ryu and I.Even when Lianne left after bringing us some coffee, none of us spoke a word.It was a few minutes later that I decided to break the silence."Mirco, Zen," I called them out, earning all three of their attention. "Say what you're g
Avianna's Point of View"Love, babe, please listen—"I tried to reach their hands to stop them, but they quickly avoided it as they quickened their pace towards our unit.I groaned in frustration, trailing behind them before they could go to their respective rooms."It's not what you think!" I exclaimed, forcibly pulling their wrists to turn around and face me. "What you saw in the office is not what you think!""Do you even know what we're thinking?" Mirco asked, his face void of emotion.I gulped, "We're not doing anything bad. I'm sorry if you have to see that, and I'm sorry for doing that as well but I was just comforting him, okay? Ryu's having a hard time...""And you resorted to hugging him knowing how jealous we are of him?" Zen scoffed."Because he needs it!" I exclaimed. "Hugs helped in comforting some people, and it helped him even a bit. Trust me, I hugged him for comfort, without any malice on both sides. Mhm?"They looked away, their chest kept on heaving. They're probabl
Avianna's Point of View"Bye, Mom! I'll try to visit again tomorrow!""You stubborn lady. I told you that you can just visit us every weekend! You're disturbing your mates as well!" Mom reprimanded me."It's alright with us, Mom. We also wanted to check on you and Dad," Mirco said."See?" I faced my parents and said, just to make a point. "I will visit whenever I want to."Mom rolled her eyes at me, "Whatever you say, young lady. You should get going now. Mirco and Zen need to have plenty amount of rest because of you.""I'm your daughter here?""And?" She raises an eyebrow.I just pouted, "Whatever. We're leaving! Bye!"The ride on our way home was just silent. Both of my mates were unusually quiet and I think I have an idea why, but I decided not to mention it. They were being unreasonable last night. I was too embarrassed to face Ryu because of how they acted toward him!Gosh. Ryu has been nothing but kind to me then my mates will just act rude to him? Geez.I don't want to mention
Avianna's Point of View"Do your mates usually arrive this late?" Vance asked me while we were just at the university gate waiting for my mates to arrive.He accompanied me here when he saw me standing outside. I asked my mates to buy me coffee before they went here. That's why they took longer than usual. They must've been caught by the traffic.I shook my head, "Not every time. There's just some time where they got dismissed late or they were caught in traffic.""Why don't you try to commute?""They didn't want me to. They said they can fetch me every day and everywhere I go so there's no need for me to commute. Zen even said, 'What's the use of our cars if we'll let you commute?'""They have a point," Vance agreed."Oh, they're here," I said when I saw Zen's car approaching.They parked right in front of me and I smiled at the window, knowing that they could see me from inside even though I couldn't see them.The door on the passenger seat opened and revealed Mirco who was wearing
Avianna's Point of View"Why didn't they inform us about the meeting getting moved hours earlier?! We wouldn't be panicking like this if they informed us!" I frustratedly exclaimed while collecting all the folders that had our proposal."There are times when a businessman as big and successful as Mr. Lim would do things the way they want because they know they have the upper hand. It's the same in our case. He knew we've been wanting to close a deal with him, that's why he's hastily doing things. Of course, we had no choice but to just follow whatever he wants," Ryu explained while typing something on his laptop."Tss. Big people and their annoying attitudes," I muttered. Ryu chuckled, "Welcome to the world of business."I playfully rolled my eyes, "This is why I didn't want to get involved in any business-related things.""Hmm, that's why you took Education?""How did you know?" I asked, brows furrowed in confusion because as far as I know, I never told him about it. All he knew was
Avianna's Point of View"Avianna, have you finished your part already?" Jace, one of my group mates in research asked.I nodded my head, yawning. "I sent it in your email. I apologize in advance if there are so many mistakes on my part. I couldn't double-check it anymore since I was so sleepy at that time.""It's fine. I'll just proofread it myself. You should just rest. The bags under your eyes looked so heavy," he said.I forced out a smile, "Thanks, Jace."I ducked my head on the table, yawning for the nth time.I only slept for two hours. I finished my work at one o'clock in the morning and I had to finish my part in our research, which was given to us last week but I barely started it and I just got to really do it last night, or earlier. I don't know anymore.All I know is that I want to sleep. I've been so sleep-deprived for the past weeks."Leondale."I lifted my head to look at who called me. When I looked up, I saw Vance peering down at me while handing out a can of soda and
Avianna's Point of ViewI'm beyond exhausted.Classes have returned two weeks ago and since then, I've been juggling my studies and work while still constantly going back and forth to our house to check on my father and to our unit if I finished my tasks early.On top of that, I'm also reading a lot of books that can help me with handling the company when I have free time. Usually, when I finish all my activities and projects.It was hard. I'm doing fairly good with the company but I still lack a lot of things. I couldn't just keep on asking for help from my mates since their classes returned as well so they were also busy. And as much as they tell me that I'm not a bother to them, I still feel embarrassed asking favors from them. So as much as possible, when I know I can do it although it's difficult, I will do it by myself.But it's draining me. I couldn't even go outside to have a date with my mates and to have a proper hangout with my friends. I slept late after doing my activitie
Mirco's Point of View"Are you on your way already?""Yup. We just bought a drive-thru for you so you can just eat at home and rest afterwards," I replied."Hmm, okay. Drive safely, babe.""I will," I said and then I passed my phone to Zen who was just quietly listening in my passenger seat."Wait for us in the lobby, not outside. No. We'll just go to you. Fine. We'll just call you once we arrive then. Alright. See you in a bit, my love," I glanced at him and saw that he had already ended the call before throwing my phone into the open glove compartment of my car. I shot him a glare because of it."Don't throw my phone like that, you fucker!" I exclaimed at him but being the annoying asshole that he is, he just ignored my words.This asshole... if only I could yeet him out of my car, I would have done it the moment I started the engine.It's been almost two weeks since we came home from Japan after we found out that Avianna's father was brought to the hospital because of his weakening
Zen's Point of View"Dad! Oh my gosh, what the hell happened to you?!" Sullivan and I could only on the back as Avianna approached his father who was lying down on a hospital bed with a weak smile plastered on his face."Sweetie," he mumbled, his voice hoarse. "I'm fine.""Fine?! Is this what fine is to you?! You can barely sit!" "Sweetie," her mom called her in a stern voice. "Don't yell at your father."Avianna glanced at her mother briefly before returning her gaze to her father, eyes softening as she heaved out a deep sigh."I'm sorry, dad," she muttered.Dad smiled, reaching her hands to softly caress it, "It's fine. I knew you'd react like this, that's why I didn't want to tell you."What he said made the frown on Avianna's face return."What? So you really have no plans on telling us?""I have, but after you're done with your trip," Dad replied. "But your Mom just had to tell you and now your first out-of-the-country trip is ruined because of me.""What? That's not true! We c
