“Do you think I am DYING to stand in your territory?!” I growled furiously, “I am tired of you bullying me. Just sign those papers and I will be out of your hair within the next second!” The very next moment, Edge stomped forward, leaving no space between our bodies. I didn’t even have the time to step back as he grabbed my waist, bent his head, and hissed in a low pitch, “HOW. DARE. YOU?” My hand shot up to grab onto his waist to stop my feet from slipping. My heart literally jumped in my throat from his sudden action. “If I were bullying you, I wouldn’t have left you alone when you were hazed last night with your hands all over my fucking body and your mouth on mine.” A shot of tremor ran through my entire body. My hands on his waist started to tremble, “I- it must be you who kissed me. I was drunk. I don’t know what you are talking about.” I lied through my teeth, not ready to give in. A scoff left his lips. His chest moving and pressing against mine even more as he continued

“A one month’s leave? Why wasn’t I informed of this until now?” Edge stood up straight, his gaze hard. Gerome lowered his head in silence, lacking any explanation. She was in Heat. The heat season lasted for a month. He didn’t want her getting close to any other male. The mere thought of her being with someone else left a stinging pain in his chest. There was no fucking way he was going to allow her to be anywhere else when he was here for her now. “From now on, I want you to report her every move to me. Do you understand?” Edge ordered sternly and took out his phone. “Yes, sir.” “Where is she going? Why?” Gerome stiffened, “Actually… she didn’t mention anything.” Didn’t mention anything? How did her college give her leave without mentioning any reason? It was clear that she was avoiding Edge. Clenching his jaw, he glanced at Gerome and ordered, “Call the airport. Cancel her flight. Put her on the non-flight list until I say otherwise.” Within the next hour, Twilight and h

By then, Light had already been bewitched. She stared at his handsome face and just nodded her head. His scent was captivating. The smell of his presence gave her a sense of security. And his lips…tasted like heaven. Satisfied by the spellbound look in her eyes, Edge smiled. 'No! No! This isn't right.' Light suddenly pulled herself back to reality and shook her head to clear her mind. "Why don't you want an annulment? You know it as well as I do that we don't love each other," she asked. "Why?" Edge ran his fingers gently through her smooth hair. Her eyes stayed focused on him and she seemed to have completely forgotten that she was in his lap, "First of all, you need money to pull yourself through college and make a career. Secondly, I need a woman as my mate to keep my Lycan tamed. And lastly, my grandfather once told me that he had our fortunes read by a witch. The fortune teller confirmed that all of yours and my stars match absolutely perfectly and there was never such a ma

“C- calm down. It’s okay. It’s fine.” she muttered as she spun around to make sure nothing was behind her. At least this was not a closed room. She would have suffocated to death by now.The darkness was covering the entire ground. Only the moonlight falling from the sky was lighting the entire area. But it was very weak. Her heart was already in her throat. She was just scared now, but her panic attack was just one breath away.More than ten minutes had passed. She had tried to call cabs and her friends but nothing was working. She was too far away from the territory to be able to mindlink anyone. She was breathing heavily as she crouched down under the tree. Anxious, terrified, and alone. She had tried to shift into her wolf but whenever she was surrounded by darkness, it had been impossible for her to do it.Salty tears spilled over onto her cheeks leaving a tight, dry feeling. Crouching under a tree, she kept calling her friends on her phone, and just about anyone she could reach

Arriving back at her home, he walked out, lifted her in his arms again, and took her to her bedroom. Her fingers clenched onto his collar tightly as a frown appeared on her face. He rested her head on his shoulder gently as he took swift, careful steps toward her bedroom. Guilt was filling his heart. He knew he had hurt her unintentionally with his actions and his words. The way she had cried kept on making his heart ache.Reaching her bed, he placed her down gently. As he tried to pull back, he got tugged back as her hand that was gripping his collar was still tightly clenched.He carefully tugged the cloth out of her grip. He then walked to the washroom, and opened a few drawers until he found the first aid kit. He grabbed a towel, wet it, and then walked back to the bed. He cleaned her wrist which had dried blood, put ointment on it, and wrapped it with a bandage. Thankfully it was just a skin deep scratch, but he could still not feel at ease. His mind kept on repeating the things
