Werewolf Academia; Revenge is best served cold ย ย ย Save her son
Malia The drive to my house was suffocatingly quiet, broken only by the sound of Coreyโs shallow breathing from the backseat. I kept glancing at him, fear tightening my chest every time I noticed how pale he was. Jamie, sitting behind the wheel, didnโt speak much, his usual snark replaced by a deep worry etched into his face.As we pulled into my driveway, Jamie exhaled sharply. โIf Corey doesnโt wake up soon, my parents are going to lose it. And by lose it, I mean full-blown Glenn family meltdown.โ I glanced at him, knowing he was right. The last thing we needed was for Jamieโs parents to start asking questionsโquestions we couldnโt answer. โMy parents are out of town,โ I said, unlocking the door. โNo oneโs here to panic, so weโll keep him here for now.โ Jamie nodded, and together we carefully carried Corey inside. Every step felt heavier than the last, the weight of the situation pressing down on me. Once we got Corey to the guest room, Jamie settled into a chair by his bedsi

MaliaNinaโs words lingered, heavy and insistent, but Jamie wasnโt one to be pushed into rash decisions. His expression hardened as he raised a hand to stop her mid-argument. โBefore we do anything,โ he said firmly, โwe need to discuss this properly. Letโs find a quiet place first. Iโm not making any moves until we know what weโre dealing with.โ Nina threw her hands up in frustration. โYou canโt be serious! Every second we waste gives Aaliyah more time to tighten her grip on Asher. How is this even a question?โ Jamie didnโt flinch. โThen letโs make it official,โ he replied. โWe vote. Either we go to Asherโs mom now or we sit down and talk first. Majority wins.โ Nina glared at him but didnโt argue. When the votes were counted, to her clear annoyance, everyone except her agreed on talking first. She let out a dramatic sigh and muttered something about โidiotsโ under her breath, but she followed us anyway as we left to find a quiet spot. The theater hall we chose was dimly l

Malia My heart raced as Asher's claws glinted dangerously close to my face, the sharp tips mere inches from my skin. His low growl reverberated through the room, vibrating in my chest and sending chills down my spine. Every instinct screamed at me to retreat, to abandon the reckless idea of tearing off the necklace, but I couldn't. I wouldn't. This was Asher. The man I loved. And I wasn't going to lose him to Aaliyah's twisted games. His glowing eyes locked on mine, a fierce, predatorial rage burning in their depths. He was fighting meโno, he was fighting the spell. I could feel it, the way his claws trembled mid-air, the way his breathing hitched, like he was battling an invisible force to stop himself. "You won't hurt me, Asher," I said, my voice steady despite the tears stinging my eyes. "I know you won't." For a fleeting second, doubt flickered across his face. That was all I needed. My hand shot up, grabbing the enchanted necklace. The cold metal burned against my

AsherI couldnโt believe itโmy own mother, siding with the girl who had me spelled and rendered me a pawn in her twisted game. How could she take Aaliyahโs word over mine? She even ordered the arrest of my friends. People she knew meant everything to me - all for what? Because she valued Aaliyah more than anyone else?I watched as the guards advanced towards them, but before anyone dared touch Malia, I caught the guardโs wrist in an iron grip, looking him up and down before I said, โWho is your Alpha? Me or her?โ โY-you, Alpha Asher,โ he stuttered, trembling under my glare. โThen how dare you try to carry out an order I didnโt approve of?โ โIโm sorry, please forgive me. We just thoughtโโ โโYou are not wrong,โ my mother interjected sharply, rising from her seat. Her usually perfectly styled dark hair was in a messy bunโa state I had never seen her in before. The sight sent a chill through me. She was unraveling, and it dawned on me that Aaliyah might have my mother under a s

AsherWe all stood frozen in the narrow passage, the silence around us was suffocating, every sound amplified in the dark passage. I felt Malia trembling next to me, her fear practically bleeding into the air. But beyond her, I could sense something elseโsomeone was about to screw up.โCorey, donโt,โ I said, linking minds with him, my tone sharp enough to cut through the silence. โYou turn on that flashlight, and youโll alert my mother.โ There was a scoff, followed by the faint rustling of Corey shoving his phone back into his pocket. Good. At least he had the sense to listen for once. This passage wasnโt unfamiliar to me. Iโd used it more times than I cared to admit, slipping away to escape my fatherโs wrath. The first time I stumbled in here, I spent days lost, thinking Iโd die in this suffocating darkness. But those endless hours taught me something valuable: the way out wasnโt about sight. It was about listening. Every creak, every whisper of air, every subtle shift could guid

CoreyYou know that moment when the rug gets yanked out from under you and youโre left face-planting into reality? Yeah, that's what it felt like standing in the middle of the forest knowing that chaos was probably already unleashed on our school. โAsher, they need help,โ Amara said, her voice sharp but not quite yelling. She was trying to keep it together, but the cracks were showing. Asherโs eyes blazed, that Alpha energy radiating off him like heat from a furnace. โYou think I donโt know that?โ His voice snapped like a whip. Then, his gaze turned on Avan and Savannah, pinning them in place. โYou two. Take Malia to Miss Banks for treatment at the safe hub. If the hybrids are attacking, then most of the students must've gathered there. Donโt screw this up, or so help meโโ He let the threat hang in the air, but we all got the message loud and clear. Avanโs smirk was still plastered on his face, but I caught the flicker of fear in his eyes. โAnd if we donโt?โ he asked, just to be

MaliaIt had been a week since Asher turned his back on everything weโd fought for, aligning himself with his mother and announcing his intention to marry Aaliyah. I couldnโt believe it at firstโrefused to, really. Even though Iโd spent days recovering from my injuries at the school hub, the news of his decision hurt far worse than the excruciating pain of being shot with an arrow. Amaraโs family had invited me to stay with them for the holidays, which turned out to be a blessing. I couldnโt face the halls of the academy, the whispers and judgment. The combat showdown, which Iโd prepared for relentlessly, had been postponed indefinitely and eventually canceled in favor of a holiday break. So here I was, lounging by Amaraโs pool, trying to piece together the wreckage of my thoughts. Amara, of course, had her theories. She always did. โItโs duty over love,โ she said, snapping me out of my thoughts. โAsherโs chosen his mother over everything else. You know what that means, right

Malia. My encounter with Asher at the Russo twinsโ party the week before was still on my mind. The look in his eyesโpale, disoriented, and detachedโplayed over and over in my head. Something was wrong with him, but no one seemed to care. Not Amara, not Jamie, not Corey. They all insisted I let it go. Initially, I couldn't imagine not doing anything, but nowโฆ it's just so obvious that there's very little I can do. He isn't under a spell anymore, so this time it's all in Asher's hand. Only he can put an end to this. Soon, it was Monday, and the holiday reprieve was over. Back to the academy, back to the whispers, and back to pretending everything wasnโt falling apart. The academy halls were alive with murmurs, their sharp edges cutting through the quiet resolve I tried to build up on the walk-in. Everyone had something to say about Asher. About me. The whispers followed me like a shadow. โSheโs still here? Brave, Iโll give her that.โ โI heard she tried to talk to him at the

AsherThe journal was oldโolder than I expected. Bound in cracked leather, the pages yellowed at the edges and laced with a scent of musk and ink. I stared at it for a long time before opening it, the weight of the thing pressing against my palms like it knew its contents would knock the air from my lungs.I didnโt know what I was looking for. Maybe a name. A signature. But the first line stopped my breath.โThis is the truth of Ian Vale.โMy father's handwriting. Sharp. Purposeful.

AsherI returned to the only place I could still call mine. Tucked away from the world, surrounded by trees that asked for nothing and wind that didnโt whisper judgmentsโjust solitude. The house hadnโt changed. I hadnโt either. Not really. I moved like a ghost through the front door, letting it shut quietly behind me.Silence greeted me, the kind that didnโt bring peace but didnโt argue either.I didnโt unpack. There was no point. The clothes I left on the couch a week ago were still there. The parcel Katherine handed me before she left sat on the windowsill, untouched. I glanced at it but moved past it like I had every day.I ended up at the bar that night.It wasnโt one of those classy places. It was dingy. Loud. Sticky floors and cheap liquor that burned going down. Perfect for disappearing. I sat in the corner booth, nursing something strong and bitter.

She isn't my mate. My mate wasnโt from here. She was from my own Lycan pack.โI stared at him, my breath stuck in my chest. I didnโt know what to say to that, especially when his next words came so quickly and so desperately.โMalia,โ he stepped closer, โpleaseโฆ just accept to be my Luna. I know youโre not my true mate.

She just answered, coldly.โAsher shouldnโt even exist,โ she said. โHe was never meant to. Thatโs why heโs not important to me.โHer words dropped like a stone in my chest. I blinked, unsure Iโd heard her right. Beside me, Jamie stiffened, his jaw clenching. Corey looked stunned, like he couldnโt believe what heโd just heard. Amaraโs brows knit together, confusion clouding her features.โYouโre going to have to explain what you mean by that,โ Jamie said.But Rhedd didnโt respond.

I felt something, I wonโt lie about that, but it was a moment. Confusion. Desperation.

So close to getting what you wanted. But like always, your rage got in the way. It always does.โHe faltered. I saw it in the slight twitch of his brow, the way his jaw clenched. He didnโt understand who she wasโbut he knew she knew too much.โYou have magic,โ he muttered. โYouโre part of the original circle, that's why you could seize my magic. The only thing isโฆ the original witches in the circle are dead. I made sure of it.โRhedd didnโt deny it.
