Emma tightened her grip on her bag as she caught another wave of students staring at her questioningly. What was it again? She thought. She hadn't even received those stares on her first day in college. Hell! She didn't even receive it yesterday. So, what changed today? Or could it be because of the beauty potion Maya had convinced her to drink before they had entered Anthony's car? No, she didn't think so. The students were far off. And the effects of the liquid shouldn't have been that fast to show or work out. It couldn't have been that strong. She had considered it tasteless and perhaps over hyped even, when she had drank it. So, why were they looking at her? She turned to look at Maya who was walking beside her. Her friend seemed lost in thoughts, biting her lips occasionally. She was tempted to read her mind her again, but changed her mind in the last second. Thoughts were meant to be private. She wouldn't be encroaching in again, unless it was necessary. "What are you thi

Meanwhile, as Derek was gearing up for a confrontation with the strange werewolf, Aiden was in his office, restless and quite sad, not in the mood for a morning quiz at all. After he had left Emma's room the previous night, he had flown as an owl to one of the trees and waited. And so, he had known, he had felt her anger at the intruder who had touched her without her permission, she had been angry at him, only that she hadn't known that he was her assailant. But still, he hadn't been pleased with her conclusion. Rather, he had felt stupid and guilty. "Did she hate my touch that bad…?" He asked himself, as he reclined more deeply into the armchair in his office. He knew she hadn't. Her body had responded to him so well, so intensely. She just didn't like the intrusion without her permission. She had felt violated, and very angry at it. He should have waited like he had planned. If she ever found out that he was the intruder, would she give him another chance if it ever came to t

Aiden watched as the familiar werewolf calculated his options, on whether to stay or run. He could tell by the darting of the latter's eyes from Derek to him. "Hello boys… Now, what is going on? Why are you causing a commotion in the class?" He asked, feigning ignorance on what was actually going on. But the two guys were mute. He watched as Emma stepped around them, and approached him. He didn't know if that was a bad idea or a good one. Her scent was too alluring. He thought, constraining himself from holding out his hand and grabbing her to him, while making sure to still his nose which seem to want to take an extra sniff whenever he tuned his attention on her. He almost told her to stay back, but that would make him unfit to settle the differences between the two werewolves. She walked pass him, and stayed behind him. She was scared. He could tell, even of her said boyfriend. Unstilling his nose, he perceived the scent that now coated his whole senses. Amidst the mixture

The café was filled to the capacity, Derek noticed, of males, rather than females. Good, he had followed his little witch. He thought. He watched the café owner thank and blush at Shane for the umpteenth time and shook his head. The woman had been so glad for the extra helping hand. She had even offered to pay them to come every day, but he had declined politely, avoiding his little witch's eyes. He knew that she had wanted him to agree to the woman's proposal. He would have, if he wasn't turning 18 next tomorrow. But he understood that the woman was a true business woman. She had noticed that the number of her customers had increased with their presence, and so had wanted to retain them. Bad, she couldn't. She should just enjoy the extra sales for today.He knew that the guys were here because of Emma, her scent was still penetrating. Even as he served tables, he cracked his head on how to hide her from his father.The female folk well, was here because of he and his two friends."

Derek's heart beat faster in fear, as he watched Emma stare up at him with eyes opened so wide.Had she connected the dots already?He swore that he will hunt down the witch and kill her if his little witch ran away from him, because of her loud mouth.Earlier, when the witch girl had made that statement that had implicated his identity, he had run stiff, his beta and his gamma too.His beta had told him to slap the witch girl shut.But he couldn't have done that, it would have attracted more attention to them.But seeing the much-shocked face of his mate now, he wished he had.At least, she would have counted it as him defending his pride against a girl that had called him a wolf.He should have. He thought, beating himself up.His inability to had done so, had only served to solidify the girl's claim, and then he had been in a hurry to see her out, forgetting that his mate was intuitive just like his mother.Oh, goddess help me. He thought. He was in huge trouble.His mother would k
