ALYSSA‘It could’ve been worse.’Carmine trying to defend Irvin was the most annoying thing today. ‘If he didn’t delay me, no saving would’ve been necessary.’‘You two needed that talk, Lyss…’‘And I’m glad ‘that talk’ is over. He’s just a teacher, and I’m just a student, there’s nothing more.’ I could sense Carmine raising a questionable brow and rolled my eyes at her. ‘And so what… we had sex? People have sex, it’s not a big deal,’‘Keep telling yourself that,’ she mumbled inaudibly and I took that opportunity to drop the topic.I was peed-on-myself embarrassed when I stepped into Antiquity, a class by Professor Norton, and discovered that he had already started teaching. He appeared to be strict with an alcohol-pumped stomach, bulging eyes that were worsened by his magnifying glasses—I don’t think anyone has told him about that yet—and on first glance, or any other glance for that matter, you’d think he was wearing a fake mustache. Turns out I was right about his strictness becaus
ALYSSAEverything had been a blur of pain, anger, and loathing, for minutes that had felt like torturous hours, until I heard that familiar voice that had taken me out of a very dark place, an unending hole I would’ve sucked and choked everyone else in if I wasn’t brought out in time.My vision returned and it looked like the whole school had gathered here, to either see or take part in what these animals were doing to me. Some had been chanting, some clapping, and others watching with either sadness or another emotion that showed no compassion but Madeline was still above me, scowling in the direction of whoever had spoilt her fun.I couldn’t find Dexter anywhere and I hoped I wouldn’t because I wasn’t sure I’d be able to handle whatever smug smirk I would meet on that devil’s face. I hated that time and time again, I’ve been endlessly proven that I was nothing but a weak wolfless orphan who could do nothing to help herself. I’ve never had the courage or strength to fight and I didn
LIAMThe school’s cafeteria, as weird as it sounds, is normally the quietest hour of the day—for students like me—because you won’t find Maddy or any of her gals dead in here. They were either mostly dieting and eating grass, like some bloody herbivores, or using their dorm’s cafeteria, which was kind of like VIP service for them, and it was no surprise that the school allowed it.The school allows anything that people like them wanted and they are always pardoned for every crime they’ve committed and wrong they’ve done… they get away with everything. That’s what happens when your parents are top donators and funders of a school, along with being on powerful levels of the same school’s committee.Besides, Maddy is ‘just’ the daughter of the infamous Alpha Athena—the first and only female Alpha with power in the West side of the territories—it’s no big deal. Especially not when Athena has demons on her side, definitely not a big deal.‘That’s sarcasm, right?’I groaned. ‘Of course, it’
ALYSSAI could never get used to how students called Irvin, Mr. Sloane. It just sounded so… unnatural and besides, I could never give that jackass an iota of respect. I wouldn’t even call him that if I was on my deathbed and it was the only way to save my life.But whatever had gone down in the classroom when I first arrived, between me and Irvin, had not gone unseen. Leah had noticed this—I always thought the girl had a detective side to her—and clearly shared it with Rachel. Liam didn’t seem to be in the mix though and wasn’t very happy now that he was in it but I was nervous at how eager Rachel and Leah were to hear what I had to say. The only person that was ever interested in anything that came out of my mouth was Alpha Evan. And that was definitely not gossip or extra information about myself so this was foreign. Foreign? Foreign was a funny word to say in this meager situation because everything that’s happened to me so far in the last three days has been beyond foreign.But t
ALYSSAToday’s had both its bad hours and good hours but I think it’s safe enough to say that I can go to bed in peace.I’d just finished dinner with Rachel and Nicole in the dorm’s cafeteria—a meal that wasn’t as mouthwatering as lunch—and wanted to go ahead to our room ‘cause I just needed the sleep as badly as Rachel wanted to finish her ‘food’ but I just wished someone had told me that being around werewolves and witches all day was so exhausting. I couldn’t end all my days feeling like a soggy samosa, my body needed to get used to this.‘And since when has your body ever gotten used to anything?’ Rachel also complained about having to deliver Liam’s glasses to him tonight. According to her, he’d need it next month and she was afraid that if it stayed too long in her hands, it was going to break again… and she wasn’t very confident that she would get it right the next time. I was sure that if Leah had joined us in the cafeteria—she didn’t because she’s not a fan of Pawxlore’s su
ALYSSAI couldn’t think with something so huge in me, especially when my mind was already so foggy, but the vicinity and most importantly, the monster who dared to do this had to be stopped.“HAVE YOU LOST YOUR FUCKING MIND?! LET ME FUCKING GO AND GET YOUR DISGUSTING COCK OUT OF ME!” I screamed as loud as I could, almost damaging my vocal cords in the process, but even the loudest ‘no’ would be unable to stop this raping assholeHis oak moss scent strangled my nostrils and him being so near me, so fucking close, burnt me inside out and made every hair on my body stand. I tried to get a grip of myself and fight back, because it was MY body, but moaned when he thrust again, hitting every inch of me and reaching that lethal but heavenly spot I thought only one vampire could find.Digging my claws into the uncaring wall I’d been pushed into, I tried to control my screams but his second thrust pulled a loud one out of me.“Fuck, you sound better than I imagined.”I did what I could to kick
ALYSSAI could hear many others coming down the halls now, heading to wherever their rooms were, and couldn’t be bothered about how roughened up I looked or how terrible my state was because my poor mind was still trying to grasp what had happened to me. I wasn’t even sure I’d survived with every piece of me intact, especially not when I felt as though I’d been ripped into two and had one of the halves stolen from me. I managed to raise my head and saw that Rachel was the owner of the footsteps I heard earlier, rushing up to me. She dropped everything she held behind, like they never even mattered to her, and crash-knelt in front of me, trying to understand what had happened to make me look so miserable.“Holy hell! What-what happened to you? Oh my fingers, you should be in our room by now…”I changed my mind. I didn’t want her to see me in this position, I didn’t want anyone else to see me like this so I abandoned my Wits textbook, got on my feet, and ran away. “Jade! Jade, tell me
ALYSSAI hugged the textbook and tried to make a break for it but he used his wolf speed to reach and block me on the other side. I’d almost forgotten how fast werewolves could get when surged with emotions.I turned the other way to leave but he held my shoulder and flipped me to his side, causing the textbook to drop on the floor. His peppermint scent was domineering and it felt like no matter how fast I ran from him, he’d catch up to me. ‘There are just some people you can’t fun from, Lyss.’‘And tell me how the hell that’s meant to help.’She shrugged. ‘It just felt good to say at the moment.’Goddess, this girl…“I thought library books were like gods to you, you made me drop one,” I said, looking for any advantage I had to escape but he didn’t even glance at the book, walked up to me till he trapped my body against the bookcase, not getting too close as he folded his hands and gnashed his teeth.“Did… did I do something wrong, Jade?”I swallowed hard and folded my hands as well,
