1. Meet again

“Luke, it’s time for you to get ready and leave.” Hayley said as she walked into the room, where she saw her little brother standing in front of the mirror admiring himself.

She sighed and said, “stop with your narcissistic behavior, wear a shirt and leave already!” she said as she gave him a light slap on the shoulder.

Luke smiled. As he stared at his reflection, his rock-hard abs, his sharps cheeks and pointed nose, his beautiful black eyes, as well as his shiny black hairs that were styled perfectly, his muscles as well as his entire appearance made him proud at his physique and his hard work.

Hayley threw him a shirt, and he grabbed it before putting it on, after giving himself one last look in the mirror he turned to his sister and said, “it is called self-love and not narcissistic behavior! When are you going to learn sister?”

Hayley just rolled her eyes and sighed, “just shut up and come down, let’s have breakfast, it is your first day and you are already getting late.”

Luke sighed and said, “yeah, yeah sure, I will be down soon.”

After packing his notebooks and some other things, he went downstairs, where he was attacked by a little kid.

He smiled as he picked her up and gave her a kiss on the cheek, this was his five-year-old niece Vanya, and he loved her to death.

Her little brother Hayden, who was just six months was being held by Jayden as he gently played with him.

Luke smiled as he walked to the dining table, good morning, Jayden, the latter just gave him a glance and nodded, before he gave his son to Hayley, he then looked at Luke and smiled, “so are you ready for the first day of University?”

Luke smiled, “yup, I am.”

Hayley put her son in the crib before she came and sat down at the dining table as well while Vanya went to get ready for school.

Jayden and Hayley looked at each other before Jayden said, “Luke.”

Luke looked at him and Jayden said, “this is a new start in your life, and I don’t want you to think of the past, I don’t want your past to overshadow your new life, you are getting what I am saying right? If you face any problem, then you come to me or your sister, we are always there for you.”

Luke smiled when he heard that, “I know, Jayden, and don’t worry, I will be fine.”

Luke was bullied very badly in his middle school, it was so bad that he got PTSD and trauma because of it, and if Hayley had not saved him back then, then he would have committed suicide.

But his sister saved his life, if it wasn’t for his sister, then God knows what would have happened.

After that, Luke had been homeschooled and trained in the pack, and clan as well as the council, and he was very, very thankful for all the love and the support that he got.

But as the years passed and he got older, his sister thought that since Luke’s school life was ruined, he should still go to the university to learn some life lessons.

At first Luke had refused and was not interested, but after arguments and heated debates and discussions, Luke had finally agreed. And so he took admission in the Labrinth University of the Gifted, one of the most famous and elite universities for the supernaturals and some gifted humans only.

And so today was his first day, and Jayden and Hayley had personally decided to drop him off which made him argue once more, “gosh no! I am not a child!”

“Yes, you are! Now get in, or we can fight more.” Hayley said clearly, Luke loved his sister- and brother-in-law to death, however sometimes they can get really over protective and treat him like a literal baby, he sighed as he looked at her and she looked like she was ready to fight, Luke just gave Jayden a look hoping for help from him, but the later just shook his head and gave him a smirk and got into the car.

Even Jayden knew that he won’t be able to win against his wife, so he wasn’t even going to try.

So, in the end, Luke got into the car as well. While Hayley smiled victoriously.

After dropping Luke to the university, Hayley and Jayden drove away. Luke sighed as he watched them leave and walked inside the gates.

Luke smiled, he was confident, thanks to his tall stature and his perfect physique, he was confident in himself and he knew that he won’t be bullied this time.

And by the stares that he was getting, his confidence was boosted even more, as he smirked and walked towards his class, oh this is going to be so much fun, he already knew that he was going to be popular and he was here for it!

As he walked to his class, he met the teacher, and he smiled as he felt all the stares were on him, he walked to an empty seat and sat down, “hello there.” He was approached by a beautiful girl, whose name was Fiona, and the two started to talk, that is until someone else walked in the room.

And soon as this person walked into the room, Luke felt something stir inside his heart, and his wolf jumped and shouted, ‘mate’ ‘mate’ ‘mate!’

Luke immediately looked at the person who had walked in, it was a young and beautiful woman, with black hairs and black eyes, beautiful brown skin, lovely thin lips, and slim body with a tall figure. She really looked very beautiful.

But as soon as he saw her, the excitement which filled his heart was replaced with anger and utter hate.

So much hate and anger that he started to shake, so much hate that he felt like he was going to explode, he had never felt so much anger towards a person specially a woman, like what he felt towards this woman who had entered the room.

He had never wanted to cause bodily harm to any woman, other than this one particular woman, he hated her that much, this woman made him realize that how much of a monster he can become!

This woman that he wanted to kill so bad.

The woman looked at him as well and they both locked eyes and she looked shocked as well. But Luke just leaned back on his seat and smirked at the woman, this woman was going to hell, and he would be the one to personally send her to hell.

Raina Hughes, I will make your life a living hell.

~~

Raina ran somewhere, she had no idea where she was going but she wanted to run away; she wanted to hide; she had no idea where she could hide though as this was a new place, but she still ran as she didn’t want to be near that man.

She had never thought that she would see him again, she would have never thought that one day her past would come and haunt her.

She felt scared; she felt guilty and regretful; she felt her hands become cold, as she pushed the door to the rooftop and stood near the railing.

What kind of joke this was, how can Luke be her mate!

No, no, no, not him anyone but him.

She looked up at the sky as she cried, but suddenly she felt someone come behind her and her heart stopped when that similar scent hit her nose.

She felt tingles in her nerves as she clenched her fists; she knew that he was standing behind her and his piercing gaze was on her.

She gulped as she slowly turned back, and there was standing right behind her, looking at her with so much hate and anger that she felt scared, she knew that she deserved that, but still, it hurts, it hurt her to see her mate looking at her like that so much hate.

But… but maybe, she can talk to him into forgiving her. She looked at him and she realized that how much he had changed; he was no longer that scrawny and short nerd, he was a man, a tall, grown handsome hunk.

“L…Luke… I…” before she could say anything, Luke came forward and grabbed her neck and pushed her against the railing, she shrieked as she felt scared and started to struggle, “Luke… please!”

She begged, but Luke only tightened his hold on her neck, making her scared for her life.

But Luke was enjoying her misery, “Oh… so you do know my name huh? But I don’t like hearing my name from your dirty tongue, what was the name that you used to call me?

Do you remember or have you forgotten? Huh!”

He said as he applied more pressure, making her cry, “I am, sorry, I am sorry”

“I asked you what was the name!” Luke yelled and Raina felt scared, “Runt!" she paused before she said again, "I am sorry Luke… I… I…” But Luke didn’t hear it and just threw her on the ground.

She cried as her skin collided with the hard floor and she looked at Luke who was looking at her cruelly, “I am going to make your life a living hell Raina, I am going to make sure that you go through hell, I am going to make sure that you wish you were dead.” He then came closer to her and then grabbed her hair as he said, “just like how you made Victoria feel.”

Raina looked at Luke and cried harder, “Luke… I am sorry…”

Luke laughed and said, “Sorry? Oh, you will be sorry, you will be sorry for being born, and I am a man of my words, I will make sure that you suffer.”

Raina cried harder as she said, “Are you going to reject me?”

Luke laughed and said, “oh no, what if you found your second chance mate? I can’t let you be happy, you know; I am going to torment you and destroy you when there is nothing left, I will reject you.”

He said before he gave her one last look and walked away with a very cruel smirk on his face.
