>>Jenny
Okay!
I stared at the food.
Okay! Alright! I’m definitely crushing on him!!
Now what!?!
“Aren’t you going to eat?” He asked and I flinched.
Right!
I should eat first. I grabbed the fork and started stuffing my mouth with the pancakes but I was very conscious of him now. And because of that my heart rate kept rising.
I ate, but I couldn’t even focus on the taste.
I raised my head to glance at him but he noticed and caught me.

>>JennyI spent the whole Sunday fretting about what I had done.I had developed a major crush on my homeroom temporary teacher and I had no idea what to do about it.I couldn’t even ask anyone about it because I have no friends. I worried about it so much that I couldn’t even sleep right.And just like that came Monday where the school announced a field trip for the third years as a measure of good mental health. And so, we were here at a park for a picnic and physical activity.Since Mister Koen is our homeroom teacher, he was with our class and I watched from the bench as he stood in the middle of a crowd of girls.I like him, but what about him? There’s
>>JennyThere was only one way to confirm things and it wasn’t talking it out like normal people.I don’t know why I’m thinking about kissing him straight ahead instead of talking to him. Something must be wrong with my mind, right?But on that note, how am I supposed to just go and kiss him?HmmmShould I call him out? Harou did say I shouldn’t go out alone and Mister Koen said he’d protect me… I did go out alone last time but it can be ignored right? Mister Koen found me then too, so it’s fine.I straightened up on the bed and picked up my phone with both my hands. Should I invite him out? I shook my head. That would be too strang
>>JennyWe walked side by side on the streets, not speaking much to each other. My heart was taking time to calm down and I had many questions running through my mind.Did I really just see his eyes glow? I mean, I think I did but why would his eyes flash gold? Does that make any sense? If I ask about it, wouldn’t it seem like I’m losing my mind and hallucinating or something?Then, I nodded mentally, I’ll ask about the other thing. Maybe I’ll get a clue about the eye thing too.“I had no idea you could growl,” I glanced at him and watched his eyebrows twitch.“Ah,” He debated what to say in his mind, “Well,” He tried to laugh it off but that only got me more c
>>JennyStartled by the accidental kiss, we both froze for a split second, our eyes widened in surprise as the bustling sounds of the street seemed to fade away as I tried to process the unexpected intimacy. I mean, this was the plan but I wasn’t expecting it to actually happen accidentally.The bomb had already blown but as the impact set in, so did panic. I didn’t know how to react, because come to think of it, I hadn’t kissed anyone before. My lips quivered but that only made me feel his lips more. I felt his breath on mine and when I breathed shakily, I’m sure he felt the air on his mouth too.I could feel my pupils shaking and my heart thumping violently in my chest. It was then though, I saw it again, I saw his eyes flash gold, and this time I knew I didn’t see it.
>>JennyJealousy flared inside of me like hellfire. The thought of someone else going on a date with Koen, other than me, was disgusting.I don’t care if he’s human or not, I want him with me. No one else but me! The previous doubts I had disappeared, I was probably having them because the notion of the supernatural is so ambiguous, but I really don’t care. What does it matter if he’s a vampire, or a werewolf, or a fae, or whatever? He has a human form and I want him.I studied over the weekend like crazy. I even told Portia I wasn’t going to come and that she should self-study.And so came Monday and the mock test.The timer started and we all began to work on my exam. This time, things we
>>Jenny“Why are you here?” Reese asked.“I need a tiny tiny favor.” I leaned over the counter of his shop and stared into his face as I made a tiny gesture with my index finger and thumb.“No,” He wasn’t amused.“Please?” I showed him my puppy eyesReese is this middle-aged guy who’s oddly fit for someone who sits on his ass all day. Reese and I became friends when I puked on his shirt when I was sick one day. He was just an innocent passerby who became the victim of my bad stomach on a weekend. He took me to the hospital instead of throwing me somewhere on the street.Weirdly enough, this guy knows a lot about sha
>>JennyMy heart pounded in my chest as I found myself surrounded by four ugly figures, the bullies who had targeted me. Their taunting laughter echoed in my ears which was also mixed with ragged breathing. Their aggressive energy closed in on me like a suffocating cloud but I was determined not to give in.I took a deep breath, trying to steady my nerves. I knew I had to defend myself, both physically and emotionally. I kept my eyes on them and noticed one was missing among them. I’m sure there were five of them before.“To hell with you, you bitch,” Maria’s face was red and I don’t know if it was because of all the running or because she was mad. As the bullies closed in, I assessed the situation, my eyes darting from one ugly to another. I had to anticipate their next move, sta
>>KoenI emailed the CCTV video to the principal and then texted him for the name of the student who gave it to him.That’s when I felt an ominous feeling and my lycan growled. As the unmistakable sensation of danger washed over me, a surge of adrenaline coursed through my veins, igniting a fierce protectiveness for my mate.Jenny!!!Without hesitation, a mix of fear and determination fills my being, propelling me into immediate action. I ran out of my house in search of her.Goddamn, it! I told her to tell me if she wanted to go out!! But she only texted me one time! Where did she go this time? The mall? The cafe? A convenience store? I had no idea but wherever she went, I’m sure she wasn’t there when
