OLIVIA'S POVWe sat down quietly in the car as I tried hard to jot everything back together but nothing was forthcoming until I wanted to take my phone out of my pocket but touched the letter that was in my pocket instead…I brought it out and read the words that it contained. I didn't want Bethany to see me reading it knowing especially that she would squeal so much over it while I didn't want to make such a fuss about it.Luckily, she was distracted with her phone watching some kind of music video which was like a grand escape for me. I read what it contained and honestly, I was touched with his utmost sincerity.Dear Olivia, I know that we didn't have a good rocky start because I was a big jerk but honestly being with you has taught me something and what it truly means to stand up for oneself. I'm still trying to learn that attribute about myself and hopefully, I will be able to make you proud. But this isn't about me or us. This is about you. I'm sorry about what I did and I'm no
OLIVIA'S POV" Argh!" We screamed at the same time as I stared in horror at the figure that sat on my bed. I was so embarrassed and immediately grabbed a wrapper that wasn't too far off from where I stood to cover myself.My cheeks turned pink as if they were trying to mock me and I felt like a total fool for not turning on the lightsaber first but then again it wasn't my fault since I didn't expect him to be here." What are you doing here Lucian? Why would you even enter my room without my permission," I scowled at him.I could tell that he was also feeling very embarrassed but tried hard to cover it up and also tried playing cool but it was easy to know that we were both mortified with the situation and it didn't make things better than he had seen me half naked." I'm sorry," he apologized and I could feel his sincerity. " But the truth is that you never close your room door."I was annoyed when he said that but something else came into my mind. " How did you know about that? Have
OLIVIA'S POVDinner wasn't as good as I thought it would be and throughout Hailey kept giving me dead glares. She didn't scare me though but I just wished that she wasn't there because she was making me feel very uncomfortable but I just had to hide it." Aren't you going to eat?" Kay asked me.I looked at him with a vibrant smile and started digging into my food. It was bad enough that I had to deal with Kay but what was with Hailey's presence here?She made me so pissed especially with the way she was acting so touchy with Lucien. I didn't know why but my heart sank at that moment and with the way both of them were looking at one another, I could tell that they liked each other.It took all of me to try to hide my pain, especially with the fact that we were already so much at the table, reckoning that the last thing I needed r
OLIVIA'S POVI was feeling so much sympathy for him that I put my hands on him. I was just so caught up in myself that I didn't realize that he was going through so much which made me feel very bad.He looked up at me with a smile on his face and that was when I realized that he was actually kind of cute but I was just being too adamant to accept it. I didn't know whether or not I liked Kay but I was sure that I cared about him." It's okay if you never want to see me again, I understand. I was a big jerk and don't deserve you," he apologized.His apology made me feel kind of guilty because I knew that he didn't mean to but would have appreciated it if he told me something at least." I'm not mad at you," I spoke up and he looked at me with a bright smile. " At first I was kind of mad at you," I crushed his hopes but surprisingly enough he didn't seem offended by it." I was taken by surprise because you were like my best friend and first alongside Beth when I came to that school and
OLIVIA'S POVA knock was heard on my voice and I went to answer it. I was very surprised to see that it was none other than my mom. I was excited to see her because u hadn't been expecting her at all." Mom," I screamed in delight, pulling her into a hug.She seemed ecstatic to see me and so was I. I missed her presence in the Palace and was more than excited that she was here again." Where did you go, mom? Leaving me all alone in this house," I whined, acting like a baby.She just giggled at my naughtiness but I wasn't having it. I was serious about wanting to know just where she went too." I just wanted days off and I'm sure that the boys were able to keep you company," she said like that was supposed to make me feel better but with a grin on her face I assumed that it was.I ignored whatever she was saying at that moment, seemingly deciding to just shrug it all off. She was the one that I wanted to see and talk to. I couldn't have been happier that she was around me.." I really
OLIVIA'S POV" That was such great acting. You were excellent," Kay praised me. We were back at our lockers and we're discussing about how this morning went by well. We couldn't stop talking or laughing about it, it was just so funny that i couldn't stop thinking about it.." You should get all the praise because you were the one who brought up the fight," I commended him. We both couldn't stop talking about it until we got to class.Bethany was already seated there. We came in together but she didn't stay with me by the locker for long." I see that you two are starting to get along well," she says, with a smile on her face.I couldn't have been more embarrassed by that wide grin on her face but she didn't care one bit, almost as if she wanted to tease me." We settled it all and we're back to being friends," I told her, but it still didn't stop that annoying look that was on her face and it pissed me immensely.The look on her face was kind of creeping but I just tried hard to igno
LUCIEN'S POVWe were so close to each other and I could have easily tell that her breath was felt on mine. It was hard to comprehend all that was happening but I was for sure not seeing anything else but her and just admiring her exceptional beauty.It was becoming harder and harder to control my growing feelings for her and the fact that I felt that way towards her was even more depressing. She was my step sister and harboring such feelings was a taboo.I tried reminiscing on the fact that she was also my mate which was making it harder and harder to control the feelings that I was harboring in her. I wasn't even sure if I liked her yet but I was sure that the way I felt about her was totally different." Are…are you okay?" I cleared my throat, getting us both out of the moment. It was a bit awkward but she remained calm and didn't even act up like I had expected she would." We…we should go now," she stammered.I nodded in response as we both got out of our hiding place together bu
OLIVIA'S POVMy eyes met with Luciens and even though he had annoyed me earlier, I still wanted to talk to him and the way he was avoiding me was kind of disheartening but I tried my very best to act as though I didn't care.I didn't know if it was just me but it felt as if he was a little bit disheartened, seeing me and Kay together but I pretended not to notice and just acted like everything was perfectly normal when it wasn't one bit.He walked over to me after Kay left for his car. I was happy that he still decided to come see me but my ego skyrocketed and I had to pretend once again that I didn't care that he was there." What do you want?" I asked, crossing my arms together like I didn't care.He took a deep breath then tuck his hands into his pockets and just the sight of that was absolutely breathtaking that I felt my breath hitch a little. It was almost as if I had gone to heaven and back with his breathtaking beauty." I don't think it's safe to be hanging around with Kay,"
