Chapter 71

My boyfriend was the most clingy person in the world. I didn’t think it would be possible to find a person who was as clingy as Xander. Grace was right. He was insanely jealous of Lily and got upset every time I mentioned her. Once I said I would no longer have anything to do with Lily, all was well in the world. He’d pulled me right against himself and one thing led to another, he started complaining of the cold and there was no other option but to generate heat with our bodies.Then we planned a date and went out to enjoy ourselves. I had forgotten all about Lily so I forgot that we already had plans. Plans that I only remembered when I saw her name flashing on my screen. Because Xander was beside me and I didn’t want to see his gaze harden when he was so happy right now, I silenced her calls and sent her a short message after a while. “I should reschedule,” I mumbled to myself that night as I dried my hair.Lily was a nice girl and did not deserve to be ghosted. I planned to make

Chapter 72

Was it a coincidence? Did the female lead change? Could I call what happened a setup?“I didn’t do it.” Those were the first words out of my mouth the minute I saw Xander after I got back to the dorm.“You didn’t do what? What happened to your phone? I’ve been trying to call you and – is that blood?” He had a lot of things to say and he said them all at once as he stared at me. “Whose blood is it?” He sniffed me and started to inspect every inch of my body. “What happened, Selene?”I burst into tears. I had been so overwhelmed that the only way I could communicate how tired and scared I was was with tears. The dagger in Lily’s thigh was familiar because it was the same dagger Xander gave to me months back after I was attacked on school grounds. I had hidden it away and forgotten all about it until I saw it sticking into Lily.“It’s okay.” Xander gathered me into his arms and hugged me tight. “Whatever it is, it’ll be fine.”I cried for a long time, exhausting all my energy before I p

Chapter 73

LILY’S POVI found out that there was nothing special about Selene. She was just like the other girls who would smile in my face and go behind my back to laugh at me. A few years ago, I had a ‘friend’ just like her. Mary was her name and she came to me at a time when I was at my lowest.As the pack runt, I was always discriminated against and had no friends but one day, Mary came to me and offered me a hand of friendship. For almost a month, we were friends and I’d run to her every time I had trouble. I’d even take on her chores and lend her money which she never paid back. I was just grateful to have a friend so I stuck with her but then I heard her talking trash about me, laughing at how gullible I was to be doing stuff for her and how pathetic I was looking for a friend.Selene was just like her. She called herself my friend and I would do anything she asked but she wasn’t my friend. Not really. I must be a joke to her. After taking my mate from me, she must have been laughing behi

Chapter 74

I didn’t know where I was going but I left the hospital in a daze. My legs carried me as I switched off all thoughts and just – I just went. My eyes were heavy like someone who hadn’t gotten a wink of sleep in days but I still found myself going. I just kept going without knowing where I was headed.“Hello?” I put my phone to my ear without checking who was calling.My legs moved as if on autopilot as I walked, cars whipping past me.“Are you okay?” The voice that entered my ear was Bella’s. “I said we were done being friends but everyone is talking shit about you. They say you tried to kill that stupid bitch because she’s Xander’s mate and it’s weird. I thought you were friends with that loser.”“Yeah.” There was nothing much I could say.“Selene,” she called my name.“Yeah.”It was as if that was the only word my lips could utter. My legs continued to carry me, my eyes started to leak and there was nothing much I could say to Bella.Yes, I thought Lily was my friend but maybe I was

Chapter 75

“Thank you.” I thanked Bella. “And I know this may be coming too late but I’m sorry. I’ve been the worst friend to you for a while now but you’ve never failed to show up for me.”I would never forgive myself for looking down on Selene’s friends once I got into her body. I would never forgive myself for looking down on Selene. Sure, she was a girl who was obsessed with a man that wanted nothing to do with her but it was because of her I got to live the life I now had. No one knew she was gone and there was no one to mourn her so I took it upon myself to organize a small funeral for her.“You were never the best of friends, anyway,” Bella responded with a shrug. “To be truthful, Selene, you have your moments. They have just been super rare since we graduated.”I couldn’t tell her that I was not the Selene she knew and that I had been biased towards her based on what I assumed the friends of the sub-villain would be like.“I’ll try my best to make it up to you and be a good friend,” I s

Chapter 76

XANDER’S POVI had thought I would feel regret if even only a little bit. It was not a far-fetched assumption that Hunter would be in pain and that my mood may be sour for the rest of the day but I felt surprisingly – light? There was only a sharp nick of pain as if a blade had pricked my chest but it was over as fast as it had started. ‘How do you feel?’ I asked Hunter who should have felt the wolf bond the strongest but he only shrugged.If my wolf was the man of the two of us, he would have been the biggest asshole on the planet. Not that we were any different but he truly did not have a care in the world.‘I felt sad for a moment but that was it. I am sure Lily is a nice girl but the mate bond was all I ever felt towards her. She’s not exactly my type.’‘Who’d be your type, then?’ I asked while already knowing the answer.I thought of Selene and how relieved she’d feel when she found out that I’d rejected Lily. Thankfully, the girl didn’t die so she didn’t have to feel guilty.

Chapter 77

When I heard the knock on the door, I knew that I’d been found. I had peace and quiet for an entire three days during which there was never a knock on the door. The knocking was loud and incessant. It made me rise from my seat but I didn’t approach the door. I didn’t want to open the door and see who was on the other side of it.“Selene, open this door or I’m going to break it down.” There was Xander‘s voice, clear as day and intent on actually breaking down the door.I didn’t want to open the door but I didn’t want him to break it down. Still, I dragged my feet, trying to delay the inevitable. I couldn't be gone for long. I would have returned in a short while since I wasn’t about to throw away my life and education because of heartbreak but I wished I could have delayed this meeting further. I wished I could have had a bit more time to digest the information I just found out.The sound of a body banging against the door jostled me out of my thoughts.“I’m coming!” I yelled before X

Chapter 78

In my first life as Selene, I did all sorts of evil things to get this man to love me because I was obsessed with him. I was eight years old when it happened, a small incident that changed my life forever and cemented my journey as a stalker.As a child, I was average, like every other child. No one bullied me but I was by far nothing close to being a popular kid. I remember it was my brother’s birthday party and my brother’s friends, kids who thought they were cooler than the ‘little girl,’ tried talking down on me. I will never forget how fast Xander shut them down. It was nothing big. I was going to look away from it as boys being foolish but he had called those groups of little boys to order so fast, I was amazed.“Don’t make fun of her,” Xander had said.I was in awe at how fast the boys shut up. There was no argument, no snicker or eye roll, just complete silence. He’d been eleven years old then and even as a child, I remembered the awe and admiration that single encounter spark

Chapter 79

“I made a mistake.” He continued to apologize. “I made a mistake, Selene and I’m sorry. It’ll never happen again. What can I do to make it up to you?”“Hmm, let me think.” I tried to think of something impossible to show him that I was serious this time and that there was no more relationship between us. In the end, I said, “Will you kneel then?” Knowing that an Alpha couldn't kneel before anyone. “Will you kneel and apologize.”“Selene.” He gritted his teeth. “If that’s what you want.”It was in utter amazement I watched him put a foot back as he brought his body down. I was both horrified and amazed.“What the hell are you doing?” I shouted as I grabbed him and forced his body upright before his knees could touch the ground. In what world would an Alpha readily kneel like this?“If this is the only way I can convince you then so be it,” he responded. “If kneeling is all it takes, then –““No, no.” I shook my head in amazement. “How can you kneel so easily? Have you forgotten your s

Chapter 80

It was crazy how much one person could affect my mood. This apartment that had been filled with nothing but the sound of my sobs since I came in was filled with yells once Xander came, then moans and now laughter.“I really have the most dramatic girl,” he was saying as he flipped me around to cuddle on the other side.“You’re a pain in the ass,” I started, “but I love you.”If only we could choose who we loved. If only love was a switch that could be turned off and on. Even if it was a switch, I dare say I would never have turned it off. I would never have chosen to stop loving Xander.“I’m only a pain in the ass ‘cuz I’m big…”“Shut up.” I slammed a pillow in his face.I had the pleasure of listening to his laughter as it burst from deep within him. His eyes crinkled and he held his stomach as he laughed while I watched. He was beautiful. A face like his was nothing short of perfection. Watching him laugh did many funny things to my insides. This man, despite the odds, despite fate,
