Anila’s POVHarley was sweet and stayed by my side as we walked into Principal Rapport’s office. Despite how emotional I was and the fact that I couldn’t seem to stop crying, even as Harley drew circles with the palm of his hand on my lower back. But as soon as I stepped into Principal Rapport's office and saw all the incredible plants that surrounded the area, I felt my body relaxing.I knew they were freshly watered already because water dripped from the pretty green leaves, and everything looked so lifelike.Principal Rapport motioned for his seats in front of his desk while he took a seat as well. Harley kept his hand on me as we both sat and then he moved his hand from my back to my upper leg, continuing the small circles. It was like he knew his touch calmed me and I really appreciated that.I gave him an appreciative smile through my tears.Principal Rapport grabbed a box of tissues and pushed them toward me. Harley grabbed a couple and handed them to me.“Thanks,” I said, blow
Anila’s POVThis wasn’t the first time someone referred to me as the new Moon Queen. Xaden’s aunt Winnie had said the same thing when she looked at me. I didn’t feel like a queen though; sure, I had multiple mates that I’m still trying to sort through, and I had multiple spirit animals. But did that really make me a queen?“Sorry, I don’t mean to frighten you,” Principal Rapport said, quickly recovering himself. “It’s just that I suspected that you were different, but this confirms it. You are more powerful than I could ever imagine.”“I don’t feel powerful,” I told him, staring down at my hands with a timid frown. “I just feel like me…”He shook his head.“I assure you; you are special Anila. I can feel it, and others can too,” he said as he glanced over at Harley who remained silent, but he also didn’t protest. I looked at him with a questioning gaze and he gave me a slight head nod.“I don’t understand,” I whispered, shaking my head. “Why are you telling me all of this?”Principal
Anila’s POVMy heart was hammering in my chest when I heard Sarah and another man talking about Damien with such disrespect. My blood was practically boiling. Harley looked worried as he ran circles around my back, trying to calm me, but it wasn’t working like it normally would.Before I could stop myself, I pulled away from Harley and made myself known to Sarah.“You have some nerve,” I spat at her, making her jump apart from the man who looked breathless and dazed as he took in his surroundings. “Cheating on Damien right under his nose? Have you no shame?”She raised her brows and then she looked at Harley and back at me. Her eyes turned to slits as she folded her arms across her chest.“You are one to talk. Are you forgetting you have multiple mates?” She said through her teeth. “How does Xaden feel about you fucking his best friend and his brother? You are disgusting if you think for a second that you are better than me?”“Xaden knows exactly where my heart is at,” I told her, and
Anila’s POVA part of me wanted to go back to the school and make sure Damien was okay. The hurt look in his eyes, when he looked at Sarah, tore my heart out and ripped it into pieces. But there was an even bigger part of me that needed to calm Harley down. I wasn’t sure if he was in control yet or not, but I knew he was struggling since Sarah nearly killed me with that spell.I could feel the tension of his bear as we strolled through the woods. He was running for a short while, but then he slowed to a walk. I kept my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist, but I lifted my head from the back of his neck and
Anila’s POVI’m unsure when I fell asleep, but I woke up when the sun was still up, wrapped in Harley’s arms. He somehow transported us from the couch and into a bed. It wasn’t Xaden’s room though; no, this smelled like Harley’s room. But we were still in the cabin.His arms were wrapped around me, and my face was buried in his very naked and broad chest. I took him in, loving the view. He was sound asleep, light snores coming from his nose, making a smile tug at my lips.I kissed his chest gently and started to g
Damien’s POVWhen I saw Anila dangling in the sky, unable to breathe, and then my eyes found Sarah who was clutching her wand and pointing it at Anila, I was seeing fucking red. I had never felt anger quite like that before. I was usually the calm and collected one; I never lost my temper, but lately, Sarah had been bringing out that nasty side of me and all I wanted to do was make her suffer at that moment.I grabbed my wand and released Sarah’s spell on Anila before Sarah even saw me coming. I could see the fury in Sarah’s eyes as she stared at Anila, but then when I came into view and made myself known to her,
Anila’s POV“Tonight, we will be having class outside in the open field,” Professor Howl announced.Murmurs erupted around the class; excited whispers as everyone tried to figure out why we would be having classes outside. I looked at Damien who didn’t look as shocked as everyone else and something told me that he already knew what we were doing.“Professor Howl, why is that?” A girl asked in the back of the classroom; her hand was raised as she spoke.
Anila’s POVI knew Damien was yelling my name, but I couldn’t hear anything over the sounds of my own screams. I was going through the air so quickly that my entire heart was practically in my chest. Everything around me had turned into such a blur and I thought for sure I was going to fall off this damn thing.I gripped the broomstick so tightly with both my hand and my thighs. My entire body shook in fear as the broom zoomed around the perimeter of the school. I screamed so loud my voice had become raw.I could hear Professor Howl&rsqu
