***********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.

************Nero POV******** When the gentle morning light crept into my room, I rubbed my face before slowly opening my eyes. Then for about a few minutes, I didn't blink with my sight focused on the ceiling. After lying still for a while, I threw the blanket off me and sat up in bed. Then I gently rested my feet onto the cold floor, got up, and walked into the bathroom. Once I got undressed, I stepped into the shower, turned it on, and leaned my head against the glass, allowing the flow of warm water to beat on my skin.  For days now, Blake has been keeping her distance. Today was the day of the full moon, and thankfully it's Sunday so I don't have to go on campus since during the full moon is when I find it the hardest to keep my wolf cage and stay in control.After getting done with my shower and wearing something comfortable, I came downstairs for breakfast a

*****************Blake POV*************** When I raised my eyelids, the light from the sun seemed too bright, so I shut my lashes. Then I tried to move, but I sensed an intense pain in my body.My muscles were aching, and it was not because I was lying on the floor, instead of the bed.  Last night's transformation took a toll on me. But I felt awake, and I could sense my wolf more accurately now, even though I still didn't have control over her or a stable connection with her. After a while, I finally opened my eyes again, and at first, my sight was dim, then my eyes adjusted to the light, and I could now see everything.  Immediately, my gaz

*************Blake POV*********** I'm standing in class, staring at Luna and Nero together, and my entire mind is blank. Should I get mad? Is there a reason for me to get angry? Even though I bare his mark, he is not mine to claim, so is there even any use to make an issue of them being together? Yet, it still hurt, more than I wanted to admit, more than I would allow myself to feel.  "Sister," I replied, giving Luna a stiff smile, even though my heart felt like it was trapped in a thorn bush. Staring into my eyes, Luna rushed towards me, grabbed my hand, and said, "Blake, you should not be here. You know what it means to be a rogue in this park. You a

The classroom door suddenly burst open, and Loki walked inside with five betas plus Alaska and Loretta with him. What a perfect family reunion! The father, the wife, the daughter, and the bastard child, in the same room along with the pack punishers. Just like the old days. When Loki's gaze met mine, his face hardened and his eyes glowed red, staring at me with so much hate. "Blake, come down here, now!" Loki shouted, clutching his fists tightly. "You have legs, if you want me, come get me," I mumbled with a half-smile. At that moment, Nero's eyes and mine accidentally met, and he looked as though he wanted to say something, but I lightly shook my head befo
