Chapter 11

XANDER’S POVThere was something wrong with Selene. Awfully wrong. It bothered me and I hated that I was bothered.‘She said you were bad in bed,’ my wolf snickered. ‘Maybe she only wanted you for sex in the first place. Some girls are like that.’ “You talk as if you didn’t get dumped too,” I muttered.‘You would have to have dated to get dumped, Xander,” my wolf laughed. “We never dated that girl and I don’t know why you are being so grumpy. She has been a thorn at our side all these years so I’m more than happy to see her go.”Did she really use me for sex?Even if there were girls like that, Selene was not one of them. She has been obsessed with me since we were young so sex had nothing to do with it. She must have loved me and loved me enough to pester me for so many years.“I think she’s bluffing,” I said to myself.No matter what she said, this must be a new trick to get my attention. I wholly believed my reasoning until an entire week passed without me even glimpsing a strand

Chapter 12

After a month in this body, I had gotten well-adjusted. My life was great as I had loving parents. Now, I was going off to college and didn’t have to worry about much because my parents and the original Selene took care of most things. Although I was annoyed to be in the same college as the male lead, it was said to be the best college around and it was close to home.My parents helped me move into my dorm. There were only six rooms on my floor and my room was a beautiful, average-sized room with a small bathroom. It felt a bit small because I’d gotten used to my new outrageously large room but I liked it.“I can’t believe you’re leaving home, already.” My father pretended to cry. “Do you remember what I told you yesterday?” He asked and I nodded with a small smile. “What did I say?”“Men are evil predators that should be avoided,” I echoed. My mother chuckled but my father had a pretty serious face.“You look like your mother so there will undoubtedly be a lot of flies around you. Ig

Chapter 13

What sort of shit show was this? When I saw that guy’s face, I wanted to let out a dreamy sigh because he was just that beautiful but at the same time, I wanted to shriek like a banshee and run away. What sort of situation was this? How did I end up here?“How are you here?” Ethan expressed my confusion but I rushed back into my room and slammed the door shut without responding.What were the chances of me being in this particular room? Was I destined to follow his shadow no matter how much I tried?Once again, I tried to see if I had any idea what book I entered but these days, I was starting to feel it may not be a book after all, just a different world.College was supposed to be a time for exploring, making new friends and trying new things without the constraints of family but why was I rooming right next to my overprotective brother? How exactly did this happen?Said brother came to knock on my door and I yelled at him to go away. I was not ready to speak to anyone right now con

Chapter 14

Bella grilled me so long and so hard, I almost cried so I ran back to my room. Who did I meet standing right at my door, about to knock? “What are you doing?” I asked, wearily. “We need to talk,” Xander said like he was about to break up with me. I’d succeeded in avoiding him for most of the holiday so I didn’t set eyes on him. Seeing him now, his dark hair a little longer, made my insides tremble. His face was lethal, honestly. If I didn’t know for certain that he spelt doom for me, I would not mind indulging in him. ‘What the hell are you thinking!?’ Grace yelled at me. ‘What?’ I thought. ‘Is it wrong to acknowledge a fine looking man?’ ‘If that fine man can lead you to hell then yesss!’ She screamed so loudly that I regained my senses. Yes, hot or not, this man was dangerous and bad for me. “We don’t need to talk,” I cleared my throat. “Go away.” I tried to brush past him but he was standing right in front of my door. “Honestly, what do you want? We’ve said all there i

Chapter 15

“Did you understand any of that?” I asked Seth at the end of the lecture.“What was there not to understand?” He asked with a frown.“Right? You looked a little lost so - that’s- ah, that’s why I asked,” I lied with a tight smile. It would be embarrassing to admit I didn’t understand half of what was said.“You didn’t understand.” It was a statement more than a question. “How can you be lost in a basic introduction to biology class?” He shook his head and I scowled.“It’s not - it’s not basic, okay? It’s the first class so it’s okay to be confused!” I grumbled, stuffing my book into my bag. I gave up taking notes halfway in to concentrate on the many strange things spewing out of the lecturer’s mouth but still ended up confused.I felt a little dejected after that. Being left behind in class, looking like an absolute moron was something I feared and it seemed to be happening already. If it was a basic introduction and I didn’t even grasp it, then was there any hope for me? I’d gotten

Chapter 16

As the growls subsided, I pulled away from Ethan’s embrace but he tried to hold me back.“It’s not pretty. Don’t look,” he said but I resisted, pulling away from him to behold the scene in front of me.“Wow,” I could not help but exclaim as I looked at the bloody scene. “Are they dead?” I asked, taking a step forward but Ethan pulled me back.Blood sprayed in all directions, coating the fallen brown leaves in vibrancy. Their bodies lay askew, limbs twisted in unnatural directions. Their blood continued to seep into the ground and I shivered but not from fear. I was amazed. It took less than two minutes to cause so much damage, so much chaos.It was the pure, unadulterated power of an Alpha and I wondered – can I ever grow to this level? Would I ever tap into even half of this strength? I too carried an Alpha wolf but Grace could not do even half of this damage.It made me want to train harder, get better, so that next time, when idiots like these approached me, there would be no need

Chapter 17

“Why does it sound like you haven’t eaten all day?” Xander frowned and my stomach growled again, this time, a lot louder than it first did.‘Tell your stomach to shut up!’ I yelled at Grace and I felt she must have rolled her eyes. ‘I told you to eat but you didn’t and now it’s my stomach?’ She scoffed.“It’s because I haven’t eaten all day,” I admitted in defeat. “I was a bit nervous for today so I couldn’t think of putting anything in my stomach.”“You? Nervous?” His brow raised. “I find it hard to believe you’re still the same Selene I know.”My heart stuttered at that. Would he find out I was not the original Selene!?‘Xander is not Omni – what do you call it?’ Grace started. ‘Is it Omni-knowing? Anyway, he’s not that! How can he even imagine the absurdity of what happened with you?’ “Maybe it’s because you don’t actually know me,” I responded to Xander and it was the truth. The person he knew was long gone and in her place was someone more interested in living than chasing a

Chapter 18

I faked an emergency to get away from the male lead who had started to talk nonsense. We were done with our meal so I rushed to stand but as I did, he did too, a tight smile on his lips and an indescribable look in his eyes.“You’re running away,” he said.“Running? Do you see me running? I’m standing right here, aren’t I?” His brow raised but I turned away and speed walked out of the place leaving him to settle the bill.As I exited the restaurant, I met the waitress from the previous restaurant who had changed out of her work clothes and was now on her way home. She stopped when she saw me, her gaze assessing me up and down, making me feel small.Grace growled in annoyance and I remembered who I was so I put my hands on my hips and looked her up and down with a sneer of disgust like the one on her face.“You think he loves you, huh?” She spat out, walking towards me. I held my ground, glaring at her. “Don’t be deceived, you’re nothing to that guy. He’ll toss you out like trash when

Chapter 19

“Seth!”I met a familiar face at the clinic. The guy from my first class turned to me with his trademark bored expression but when he saw me, his eyes lit up a bit. Yet, when he opened his mouth to speak, he sounded like he was talking to a stranger.“Hello,” he said in a monotone. “How can I help you?” I faltered then frowned.“Have you forgotten who I am?” I asked. I’d forgotten to contact him since that day but he occasionally crossed my mind and I even planned to contact him so we could plan our study hours.“Selene, right?” He asked and relief made me nod in a hurry. “Why are you here?” The relief morphed into surprise at the question spoken with a hint of hostility.“Well, I’ll be volunteering here starting Monday,” I said.I’d gone to the vet clinic to receive a briefing on what was expected of me and to conclude my volunteering hours. I also received a few supplies from the clinic.It was clear Seth also volunteered here and when I saw him, I felt a bit of relief at having a

Chapter 20

When I learnt the original Selene planned to pursue veterinary medicine, I thought she did it for Xander. After all, her whole life seemed to revolve around him but I learnt that Xander was pursing a bachelor's degree in business administration. Thus, while Seth and I studied, he just sat there and said nothing. Actually, Seth and I weren’t studying. He was teaching me everything. For a gruff guy, he had a lot of patience and I considered myself lucky to have met him. I also discovered that although I knew nothing, it didn’t take me long to grasp the meaning of things so in the five hours we spent in the library, I learnt a whole lot. “You should read up on these before the next class.” He highlighted several parts of the textbook and I happily promised to do so. “Thank you so much, Seth,” I said as I gathered my books. “Right. We should do this often,” he stuffed his books in his bag without looking at me. “See you in class on Monday, then.” “Okay!” I didn’t think much as to why
