Blake's POV.Never in my life have I been this confused. My eyes were on the girl that was just whipped, and I can't tell why i was feeling concerned about her cries. She was in deep pain and had even fallen off the desk when the men stopped hitting her, showing how exhausted she was. I watched her eyes shut as she lost consciousness. My brows arched when my heart clenched with a little pain, which I don't know where it crept in. It hurt me that the strange girl was beaten to the extent of fainting.Why? Who is she?That was the question I asked myself while gazing at her face."How dare you stop what I was doing?" I heard someone yell, but as much as I wanted to check who it was, I still couldn't take my eyes off the tortured girl who was motionless on the floor with her legs bleeding.She had been flogged so brutally that her skin was torn and swollen. I kept wondering what she must have done. From her appearance and scent, she was a werewolf and not a vampire or demon, so why would
Blake's POVWords can't explain exactly what was wrong with me. It was so weird to me, but yet I couldn't stop. It was like a greater force was pushing me to do it. Yes, the force of attraction toward the poor girl was stronger than my hatred for the werewolves.Jace was shocked when I saved her from Torian's hand, but was more stunned when I told them I would be staying back to check on her immediately after the doctors were done treating her.They had both left me in the school clinic ward and went back to the classroom. After a few minutes, the doctor came out and informed me that I could go in and see her. The way my heart had clenched and thudded in excitement was so strange and beyond my understanding. Without wasting any single second, I had hurried in and sat beside her bed, staring straight into her face, admiring and wondering what magic she was performing on me. I had never met her before, yet it seemed like we had fallen in love before. How else can I explain saving and c
I sat there on the ground watching his receding figure as it disappeared. He really walked out of the ward and left me in the hands of Torian and Sophia. The last words he said pierced my heart so deeply that I lost my breath. There was an intense hatred and rage in his eyes when he said those words...I couldn't see any warmth or pity. It was so clear that he didn't care about me. For real, he had lost his memories and doesn't remember me anymore. I was like a stranger to him. All the sacrifices I had made, which had destroyed my life and resulted in the death of my parents, were all in vain as he couldn't recall anymore.Hot tears warmed up in my eyes as my heart grew heavier in pain, thumping hard as the urge to cry pumped hard inside me. My eyes were still stuck at the door where he had just passed through. My pitiful self wished he would suddenly come back and save me from Torian, but it was all part of those wishes that never came to reality. "Did he just call me a fool? And he
Sophia's POVI felt a sharp pang in my heart while drawing my legs forward to where he was. The thudding in my heart was becoming faster and louder as I swallowed the lumps in my throat. He had looked away and didn't turn his face to me again. Those frowns kept going deeper, like he hated my presence in the class. I couldn't help but wonder why he suddenly hated me.I can be called the most beautiful girl in this entire school and also a Beta's daughter with royal blood. Many people wanted to have me, so what makes his case unique? He Just got enrolled and it seemed like we had been enemies for centuries.Lola, who was a commoner and a slave, was the one that got his interest. As much as I wanted to believe he had no feelings for her, I was still doubtful after seeing the way he got lost staring at her when he first entered the class, and he had even gone ahead to take her to the clinic for treatment.Lola seems to be the one he is concerned about, and I won't mind killing her. Yes,
My head was suddenly banging hard as I forced it to remember the past as it was crystal clear something had happened when I was hunted by those pack warriors, which I couldn't remember again. Now I have no doubt that Lola saved me, but why I can't remember it is something hard for me to understand.All I can remember is being chased a few days ago when I snuck into this pack in my vampire nature, only hiding my scent and putting on a hood. Nothing else! How Iater survived that day was no longer registered in my head, which was so strange.I lay my head on the desk with closed eyes as I kept racking my brain and suffering more headaches, which seemed like they would sear out my eyes. Everything seemed to be spinning around me, forcing me to grunt as all my efforts to recall weren't showing any results.I thought of shoving everything out of my mind, but the urge to recall what Lola had done for me was so strong. If she had betrayed the wolf community to save just me, then I would owe
Jace's POVEveryone scampered away for safety, and I could see how Torian's grip slipped off Lola's neck before he took quick steps back, his legs trembling. The werewolf scent was gone and replaced with that strong royal scent and the heart-wrenching aura of a vampire, which left everyone terrified to the core. I knew, in no distant time, the hunters would be here to hunt him down, as every wolf here would quickly send a mind link to the hunters' base. They would come in large numbers, and it wasn't going to be easy for him."You are a vampire?" Sophia's voice was stressed out as she grunted, peering at him, but Jason seemed to have lost his mind entirely as his eyeballs glowed in strange colors and his gaze was fixed on Lola."You... are..." You are mine. " His husky voice rolled out again, each word at a time. This time, it wasn't laced with anger, but passion. He was looking straight into Lola's face like that was where his life depended on it."Blake..." Lola cried out, blinking
Sophia's POVIt was like the speed of light, whooping through the air just before I could make a blink. This was the last thing I expected, and even though I knew he would run away, I never thought it would be immediately. In an instant, before I could use my magic powers to shut the door. That was my plan to stop him from escaping before the hunters got closer. When I saw Lola hug him, my heart became at ease, and I couldn't hide my smile. The hug made me believe they weren't aware the hunters had been informed already and would be in the school shortly.All I was waiting for was to sense their presence with my sharp organ. It was so unexpected to see Blake vanish away. Not all by himself, but he also took Lola with him. If he had waited a little, my whole plan would have worked out perfectly.Yes, I planned to help the hunters subdue him so easily and fast. When he'd be made a slave in the pack, I would seize that opportunity to use a greater love spell on him so he would love me.
Lola's POVThere was an absolute silence that filled the atmosphere as we both sat down right there across the boundary. Blake seemed lost as his face got buried in his palm. All I could hear was his heavy breath and a silent grunt.I had a lot of questions to ask him, but I already know he has no answer to them and must be contemplating it now. It wasn't about taking me away right now; it was about where I would go next. No one ever thought of a moment like this while speeding away from my pack. We had succeeded in escaping the ambush of the pack hunters. Yes, we left before they came, but does it all make sense? I am not safe here either. As much as I wanted to know what step Blake would take next, I still knew he couldn't do much. This must be why he is lost in thought here and now."They are coming..." His deep and caring voice spoke out all of a sudden while he pulled his head up quickly, spinning his full gaze at me. My eyes widened in shock while I flinched in fright, knowing
