************Nero POV****************
When I came downstairs, I met Jason waiting for me at the bottom of the staircase.
With my eyes fixed on him, I faintly smiled before walking past him. But Jason suddenly grabbed my arm, causing me to stop in my tracks.
“She's only going to be here for two weeks, right?” Jason asked, pulling his brows together in a frown.The truth was, I wasn't sure about the answer to that question either, and it annoyed me to know that I was being hesitant to decide.
After a brief silence, I looked at the time on my phone screen and said, “I'm running late for class. So, let's catch up this discussion later."
"Nero!" Jason harshly said.
As I stared at him, his eyes told me that he was mad. But if he knew why I was this considerate to Blake, he would detest me, and I didn't wanted the one person that honestly cares about me to see me as the monster that I am.
When Jason squinted his
It felt a bit annoying that fate kept messing up my plans, but now that I was staring at Luna, I felt like I was getting back on course.Watching her eyes slightly dart left and right, I asked with a straight face, "Do you tell your name to every stranger that you just meet?""No. But I make an exception if that stranger is a hottie like yourself." Luna said with a sheepish grin."That's a bit straightforward, don't you think?""I don't see the crime in honesty."Staring coldly at her, I paused for a moment before saying, "I should get out of your way."
****************Blake Pov**************When the shorthand on the clock hit seven and the long hand pointed at twelve, I stared away from the wall clock and looked at the door.Then I rolled over, laid on my back, and slowly shut my eyelids, blinking as my eyes adjusted to the bright chandelier light.It was hard to fall asleep when Nero was haunting my dreams, and it was even irresistible to ignore his scent, even though I was trying to since he arrived home a few hours ago.When the bitterness I felt finally left me, I dragged myself out of bed and headed in the hallway, planning on going downstairs for a cold glass of water.But as I wa
******************Luna Pov**********When I stepped out of my bathroom and entered my room in a towel, I saw my mother sitting on the edge of the bed dressed in a stunning, elegant dress, looking like a true Luna.When our eyes met, she gazed away, and her sight rested on the bags."What's in there?" My mother asked."I told you that I was going shopping today," I said, striving to keep my emotions in check.Tonight was extremely important for my mother, and I knew her mood would be unstable, and a slight slip of the tongue could send her off. Also, I needed her to be in a good mood for when I broke the news about… Damn it! I didn't get his name.
Watching my mother grimace at Nero, I felt so enraged, and yet, I knew not to blaze the fire by getting mad.So, I gazed at Nero, drew my brows together, and made a face to signal him to answer her question.For a moment, he stared at me and then faced my mother as he said, "Good evening. I'm Nero Fang, a transfer instructor from West Coast college who recently arrived in the state."With a look of annoyance on her face, my mother snorted derisively and said, "I'm not asking for your name or job? I mean, who are you exactly, and what…""Google my name," Nero calmly uttered, not breaking eye contact with her."I need the answer from
***********Nero Pov************Now that I am standing in a room filled with the scent of my enemies, memories are rushing back to my mind and I can see the blood of our history clear.And even though the past wasn't something that I wanted to repeat at this moment, my wolf was misbehaving because of the scent of Loki.But I caged its rage and smiled as Luna approached me. Tonight has been tough with all the fake emotions I had to put on and portray and the lies I had to tell.But to win the trust of my enemies, I had to gain their sympathy first, and even though it wasn't going to be simple, today was the first step."I'm sorry," Luna said with a wea
*****************Blake POV************Grabbing the sheets even tighter, I let out a soft moan as I gazed into Nero's eyes. My body ached, and we had been at it for the longest, yet wherever he touched started a fire that needed to be quenched by him.Finally, the sound of his phone alarm started buzzing, and Nero stopped thrusting, giving me a moment to rest.The drowsiness I felt made my eyelids fall a little, and I struggled to open my eyes when I heard Nero say, "It's six o'clock already?"Then he turned his focus back to me, pressed his body against mine, and I could feel him deeper inside of me."Good morning," Nero said, his lips brushed against my cheek."I'm sleepy," I cried out, squeezing the sheet.When he leaned toward my lips, I wrapped my hands around his neck as he whispered, "Of course. We had sex all night."&n
***********Nero Pov*********I watched as Blake reached for the cereal box, shoved her hand into it, and ate a few.From her remark, it seemed like she was planning to run away after her first transformation, and that was a good thing for me, for my plan.But then again, even though I am not still certain that she is my mate, a part of me wants her to stay. Why? I don't know.For years, we Fangs alphas had difficulty finding our mates because of a curse, and only when we go through hell, are we certain that she is the one.That's why losing my mother really shattered my father because of how long it took him to realize that she is the one, his mate.
******************Luna POV***********Getting rejected twice by Nero had me at the last limit of my patience, and now that I have played the bond card, I waited eagerly for him to take the bait.My mother was right all along. Killian is my mate. I felt it last night, even though I tried to dismiss the feeling by getting angry at him and striving to feel hostility toward him.But not in a million years will I admit it. That I have been bonded with a lothario. Also, he was not that desirable in wealth and appearance, and no matter what, I deserve the best, which is Nero."Are you going to say something?" I asked, pouting at Nero because it had been a while now and he had not answered my question.
