Lucas POVI stood beside Shana's hospital bed, my gaze fixed on her motionless form. The flurry of medical professionals moving quickly around her only added to my growing unease. I felt a mix of worry and helplessness, desperately seeking answers for her mysterious condition.I told James to go home since it was getting later and later by the second. He almost refused me, but finally decided it would be best if I just stayed here with Shana.It was overwhelming enough with the medical staff constantly running around the room.One doctor approached me, a furrowed brow betraying their own confusion. "We've conducted thorough examinations, but we were unable to find any physical injuries or ailments that could explain her current state. It's quite.... perplexing.""You've never seen anything like this before?" I asked, trying to get some answers out of him. "I'm sure she's not the first wolfless patient you've had."He looked down for a brief moment, then glanced back up at me. "As I sa

The afternoon sun spilled its golden rays into the high-end boutique as Lucas and I stepped inside, the bell above the door chimed softly.Rows of stunning dresses adorned the store, each one more breathtaking than the last, with fabrics that shimmered and designs that seemed to be plucked from the pages of a fairytale.As I glanced at the price tags, a wave of uncertainty washed over me. There was no way I could afford the perfect dress for Winter Formal in this boutique.Everything here was wildly out of my price range, and I didn't want to be vocal and burden Lucas with my financial concerns.However, it seemed that he could sense my unease without a word from me."I know what you're thinking, Shana," Lucas said, his voice soft and reassuring, his deep blue eyes filled with kindness and understanding."How did you know what I was thinking?" I asked, surprised that he could read me so well."That look on your face," he pointed to the lines of worry on my forehead. "Don't worry about

Monday morning at school, I was completely caught off guard when I got a sudden call to the dean's office. I had no idea what was going on, but I had a sinking suspicion it had something to do with what happened last week.On my way to the dean's office, I saw Jessica's followers crying in the hallways.This wasn't good.Right as I opened the dean's office door, I saw a stunned Jessica sitting in the seat across from the dean. Next to her was Lucas, looking ever so serious.His eyes met mine as I closed the door. I had no idea what was going on, but I felt relieved to have him by my side."Shana, please take a seat." The dean gestured to an empty seat. "We have some important things to discuss."I followed the dean's orders and took the seat next to Lucas which thankfully, happened to be far from Jessica."Lucas has told me everything. From the constant torment and bullying that Jessica and other students have been putting you through." The dean's face was stern as he watched Jessica

As soon as James saw what was happening, he rushed forward to the reporters and began adding screenshots from the group chats as evidence to be used."The public opinion will be on our side. That's why I thought having the reporters here was the best option," Lucas said, his eyes gleaming with confidence as he explained our plan. I couldn't help but admire his determination and leadership.What Lucas was implying made perfect sense.If a lot of students had faced the brunt of Jessica's bullying, it meant there would be a groundswell of support against her.The reporters' presence would amplify the issue and put the spotlight on her actions, ensuring that the truth came to light."You're kinda smart sometimes," I teased, knowing full well that Lucas was intelligent and resourceful."Sometimes?" he replied with a mock offended tone. "All the time."As we returned to school the next day, I felt a mix of apprehension and hope. I wondered how our efforts to expose Jessica had impacted the

I caught glimpses of other couples elegantly dancing on the shimmering snowflake-covered floor.They seemed to effortlessly glide across the dance floor, lost in the grace of the music.I, on the other hand, couldn't help but feel anxious about the prospect of dancing in front of so many people, especially with Lucas, who was such a notable figure at our school.I didn't want to let him down or make him look bad in any way."I have a confession to make," I said to Lucas who was still holding his hand out to me."What's that?" he asked."I can't dance," I whispered quietly, turning to look away, suddenly feeling ashamed."What was that?" Lucas asked, stepping closer to me. "I couldn't hear you.""I don't know how to dance," I repeated louder this time, tucking a loose strand of hair behind my ear. "I've never danced before.""You're never danced before?" Lucas started to laugh, and I punched his shoulder, prompting him to stop."Why are you laughing at me?! This is serious.""Shana, ev
