AUTHOR Finn stared into her glistening eyes after she said that. She didn't have an amused look on her face but that didn't mean he took her seriously. "This is no time to joke, baby. Those words are sensitive. You shouldn't say them so expensively." He brushed her words aside as unserious. He felt she was too shy to ever mutter those words and mean them. "I'm serious," He looked at her face. She wasn't smiling. She held a pretty firm expression but Finn still doubted her words. She stood up from the seat and walked to the door. After locking it, she went back to sit by his side. "You think I'm still joking?" She asked, following his silence. She made to remove her top but he stopped her. "You're playing with fire, you know that? A whole f**king hell that could f**k the hell outta you." "Then f**k me, Finn." Her words were raw and reeked of want. It made Finn's head spin. She freaking called his name and was inviting him to screw her. Her right hand went to her right b00b and
IRIS That morning, I packed my books and headed straight for school. I suddenly remembered that I had a job and I didn't quit officially. I didn't know if anyone even missed my services. My hands slowly trailed the place where Finn had bitten this morning before he left. There was no mark or scar but I could still feel the fresh bite. I smiled and walked through the big gates. I walked to my locker dreamily, ignoring everyone and everything around me. All I could think of was only Finn and our splendid night together. I was too tired to even get up and have my bath but then, I had missed out on a lot in school and I didn't want to fall back in any area. "Earth to Iris!" I heard the familiar shriek of Anya. I flinched out of my cloudy thoughts and came face to face with an indifferent-looking Anya. I hadn't told her of her brother and me and I wondered if he said anything to her. This was a typical 'my best friend's brother' kinda scenario and I tried to avoid such but it seemed th
IRIS I watched as jealousy roamed the face of Raven as she stared at me. I guessed she was finding it hard to believe that I was the mate of the man she so badly wanted. "That's not true. You're lying." She said more in a whisper but I heard her. "What's not true?" I asked, pretending not to know what she was talking about. "Her? Come on, alpha Finn, you can do better. It can be anyone, anyone but Iris." She yelled as she clutched her new headset tightly. She wouldn't want that to get spoilt now, would she? Before I could open my mouth to say anything, she stormed inside. "Wow, that was a whole lot of drama." I shook my head as I watched her. "She's always like that. Don't mind her. How was training today?" He asked, embracing me warmly."Training?" I asked him. I didn't remember telling him I was going to a fighting class or anything. "Yeah, training. I asked Damon to teach you some basic skills. Seems like he didn't do it after all. Or did he go easy on you?" He inquired. "S
IRIS After school, I found myself in Damon's class again. He was even more strict than on my first day. He scolded me a lot and made me do hard stuff I felt was too early for me to do. "I'm tired, okay?" I said in frustration when I wasn't getting it. It was just the two of us in the room again. I growled angrily and sat on the floor. "Could be nicer? I'm new to this and I feel you're pushing me too hard." I complained. He ruffled his hair and turned to the wall. I could tell he was angry about something but he wouldn't just let it out. What was bothering him? He took some minutes of silence before turning back to me. "I'm sorry, okay? I just can't help it. He's making me lose my mind." He groaned and sat down beside me on the floor. He pushed his head back to the wall and shut his eyes. "Do you wanna talk about it?" I asked. "Of course. He's your boyfriend after all." He said. My face reddened at his statement. It was still all new to me. Who knew that a poor, battered girl li
IRIS It had been two days and no sign of Finn; no texts and no phone calls. It was as though he had been completely wiped from the surface of the earth. I found it difficult to concentrate in class. Finn occupied my kind as each hour passed by. There were times I wanted to regret every time I spent away from him but then, I still needed to hold onto my faith. After my encounter with Raven the other day, everyone found out I was mated to the alpha. Many approached me, telling me how happy they were to have me as their luna and not Raven. Guess she didn't have a good reputation. Even Roland was surprised and tried confronting me but I shunned him and warned him never to confront me ever in his life. Even Damon did the same thing when he took my warning lightly. He had formed the habit of always approaching me and it wasn't funny. He said something disgusting about not letting I and Anya go and that we belonged to him. I just tagged him as a child and reported again to Damon and the
FINNAll around smelt of smoke and demons. Even though I was a half-demon, I despised their kind. They reeked of evil and all my beast ever wanted to do was rip them apart. It had been three days since I left my pack. I had been hunting the demons that threatened to ruin my pack and other werewolves. Three days of nonstop fighting and slaughtering. The demons were a threat to me.When Zaria was alive, she would always pester me to take her with me. It was dangerous and I spoke her out of it most times. But one day, she proved strong-headed. She was determined to come with me, even Arnold and Damon. Three against one, I decided to take them along. And there, I almost lost her. Good thing I had quick reflexes. Even after her near-death experience, she kept on talking about how we could befriend demons. Sure they were reasonable people but I knew that was impossible. They hated us because of my father. And wanted to wipe us from the face of the world. That night back where we camped,
IRIS I didn't know when I started crying. My heart ached a lot at the thought of almost losing Finn. The state I saw him in was maddening and it took me a lot of courage to be able to stand before him. I didn't want to be scared of him even though my legs were shaking. How did he get there? He was such a nice guy but yet, he had so much to take care of him. He could easily lose his life. It was a scary thing and I couldn't help but ponder on it. I didn't go back to school. I just went back to my apartment and sat down on the floor, resting my back on the bed frame. Why was the moon goddess mean to good people? Why does evil thrive but good struggle? Why can't she just take the life of those who threaten others? I lay down on the floor and shut my eyes. I just wanted all the pains to just vanish. ******I felt my body being lifted up and placed on a soft surface. I moaned when I felt his touch pulling my hair away from my face. I opened my eyes to meet Finn's eyes staring at me.
IRIS I dropped to the ground in sweat. My face and my body were drenched with sweat and I was struggling to catch my breath. Damon had been going hard on me just because, according to him, I was a fast learner and I was going better than almost everyone that started before me. "Get up, Iris," He said impatiently and clicked his tongue. His mouth was still bleeding from the punch I gave him. I thought that would be enough to make him stop but it just got him fired up. "I'm tired, okay? I can't go on." I replied breathlessly. Tracking my progress for the last three weeks, I was doing well and could defend myself in any battle. It was as though I was born for battle. Well, my dad was a beta and I have his genes, so yeah, that explains it. "The interschool competition is just weeks away. And I already picked you to represent our school in the tournament." "Wait, what?!" I finally found the strength to sit up while glaring at him. "Isn't this supposed to be something I get to decide?
