All Chapters of ENTANGLED WITH MY STRANGE MATE: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

|Oliver|I couldn’t bear the fact that everybody was silent about the boy. They all went on with their activities as if nobody was missing. I had discussed a lot with my wolf, Rye, over and over, but he just kept telling me to mind my business.“I think I should press her further so she can tell me what I want to hear. Bernard doesn’t seem like an option because he’s inaccessible for now. I can also threaten her with a little secret between us,” I told him in the shower as I prepared for school.“Just let go of your obsession with this case. You are not someone who gets involved in people’s affairs. Why are you suddenly nosy?” he warned, but I just wouldn’t listen.“Don’t you feel that something is off about this school? Everybody is afraid of the bully and that fairy girl is just pretending to be nice. I need to know what’s going on,” I countered, and poor Rye could only sigh.“Should we do some mind reading? I can get some info out of her through that method”, I proposed, and a subt

Something was strange about her. It was as if she was scanning through my mind with her fixed gaze. I have never had any encounter with her prior to that moment but I felt a strange chill down my spine.“Yes, I did. He looked like a human, just like you and I,” I responded and everyone burst into a laugh.I didn’t mean to hurt her, it was the truth. The president was a human just like us. There was nothing special about them. The ranks they had been segregated to clouded their thoughts and constantly fed him with the idea that the politicians and celebrities were demigod.“They are just like you are. Don’t feel bad for not meeting any. There’s no big deal. Every human is equal, isn’t it?” I added.Her lips curved slightly into a smile as the beam of happiness radiated on her face. My words must have done wonders, she felt relieved instead of being embarrassed by the laughs.The next word that flew out of her mouth was “Let’s be friends.”My heart skipped a bit. The words were too sudd

|Oliver|I couldn’t get the girl who locked eyes with me off my head. The scene kept coming to my head, even though I tried hard to push it away. I kept tossing and turning on my bed just to get some sleep, tried reading a book, and even took a short walk, but nothing worked. I didn’t want to unlock Rye because it would be another round of headaches. He might even scan her mind the next time without my permission, that’s how reckless he could be. Ali noticed my discomfort and asked what was wrong, but I just flashed a fake smile and lied, saying that I needed to assimilate a line from my book.“You can just let it be till some other time instead of obsessing over the thoughts. When you obsess over a thought, it turns into worry, and it starts eating you up. If the opportunity to address it comes, you won’t have the clear judgment, and you will end up messing things up,” he advised and went to sleep.Even though I lied to him, he ended up saying something that I needed. He didn’t lie a

|Annabel|I was embarrassed and annoyed at the same time when I found out that he was way out of my league. I once heard of his story when I was growing up, but I never imagined that he would be the one because he didn’t look like someone who would have that much privilege.His heroic action was putting me off, and I needed to put him in his place, but I got dragged in the mud instead. He was someone I wouldn’t dare drag, but I also wouldn’t let him intimidate me, so I didn’t sulk on it for long.Since that day, we never had any interaction, even though we were sitting together in class. He would keep quiet all day or take a nap when he’s not taking a walk. I was tempted to talk to him sometimes, but I wouldn’t want to put my pride on the line, so I just let him be.That very afternoon, the new episode of the book I was reading dropped, and as usual, I ditched lunch just to catch up with it. I already prepared my mind to mail the writer some sweet curses if she dared drag the story in

“What am I interrupting? Don’t mind me, I will just drop the cake and leave you to it,” her giggles only made it more embarrassing.“We are not doing anything. He was only adjusting my hair!” My yell was sharp but she just wouldn’t believeHer shoulders went up with a “If you say so,” even though it was glaring that she didn’t buy my excuse.A hot glare was directed towards Bernard for putting me in such an awkward position but he ignored and made matter worse by saying, “I have your permission to take care of her, right?”“Of course! She doesn’t lack money or goods but you know we cannot provide that kind of care for her, right? I will leave you to it and trust that you will treat her right,” she winked at him and rushed out.“Mom!” my temper hit the roof as I turned to Bernard, who was only watching me throw a fit.“Relax! You need to learn how to relax those muscles. They are not meant to be stressed,” his deep voice blared.He moved forward to massage my shoulders but I just threw
