The Lycans Nextdoor
Wanting to escape the turmoil last year had caused, my mom thought a fresh start was what we needed, so we moved to a different country. My first clash with the three Glass brothers happened at the airport, and ever since then, they’ve been everywhere I go. Turns out they’re my neighbors and the golden boys of my new high school too.
I want to stay away from them and focus on maintaining my GPA and the drama-free life I promised myself, but it’s not working. There’s a dangerously strong pull between us that feels almost unreal. My pulse trips over itself when they’re near, my blood boils when I see them with other girls, and my body betrays me, craving their slightest touch. It’s confusing, maddening and especially aggravating. The fact that all three of them look like they had stepped out of a dark fantasy novel written by a woman with unrealistic expectations wasn’t helping the case.
Then I witnessed horror—bones snapping and reforming, fur replacing skin. The Glass brothers aren’t humans; they are beasts, Lycans, Supreme Alphas, and just as I thought things couldn’t get worse, they tell me the pull I have been feeling is because I’m mated to them—all three of them. But luckily, I have the chance to reject them, and I’m going to take it, because I’m just an ordinary human girl.
I am not Beauty.
And this certainly isn’t Beauty and the Beasts.
Warning!!! Extremely graphic and explicit erotic content.

Chapter: 18Maxine “Bye, baby,” I said, kissing my mom’s sleepy head.“Hmm. Don’t bash my car, Maxine,” my mom warned, groggily.Yeah, her precious car. I don’t know which she loves more—me or that car. Obviously, me but the car is still far up there on her list. I’m honestly surprised she’s letting me drive it to school instead of just dropping me off.“Sure,” I grabbed the Range Rover keys and headed outside.I tossed my bag into the back seat and started to round the car, but I halted when I saw someone leaning against the other side.“Bran! You scared me. What are you doing sneaking around?” I frowned, my cheeks stinging from the memory of the most embarrassing moment of my life yesterday.Why did I try to kiss him?I still don’t know, but it was really stupid and awkward. The worst part? He didn’t even kiss me back. I don’t know whether to feel thankful because I wasn't in my right mind, or to feel awful that he didn’t want me. He probably feels like I assaulted him. I don’t think he’d be h

Chapter: 17Brandon “Where the hell have you been?” I heard my mom’s voice as soon as I sneaked into the house.Shit. I knew I shouldn’t have locked my bedroom window. I should have climbed in quietly and avoided everyone.“Sorry. I was with a friend,” I said.Mike clapped his hands, and the lights flooded the room.“Hmm. I wonder what 'friend' would give you a change of clothes and clean your uniform,” he said, staring at my laundered uniform folded over my arm.“A nice friend,” was all I said.“If you were with a friend, why weren't you picking up anyone’s calls, and why did you block out the mind link? Also, what friend lives so close? You were really close,” my mom said.“Max. She lives next door,” I said, trying to act normal.“Max is not just your friend. She’s your fated mate, and you know how fast things can spiral when you spend time with her.” She arched an eyebrow at me.“She is my friend, and nothing happened. I promise,” I insisted.Johnny just sat there, saying nothing, his eyes fi

Chapter: 16Brandon Prince growled restlessly inside my head. I really wanted to lean in and kiss her soft, pretty lips, but I couldn’t. She deserves to know the truth. She deserves to know that I’m a monster before she chooses to kiss me.She’s so beautiful. My perfect girl. My perfect mate.I trailed my eyes down her neck, over her delicate collarbone and her pretty, pale skin. Fuck. My heart skipped when the thought of sinking my teeth into the hollow of her throat crossed my mind. I couldn't do that. She was probably already so confused and overwhelmed; I had to take this one step at a time.I pulled away. “Sorry,” I mumbled.She immediately moved past me and ran into the bathroom, shutting the door. I exhaled heavily, trying to calm the beast under my skin.Four Seven Eleven Four Seven ElevenFour Seven ElevenMy phone buzzed on top of Max’s desk. It was probably one of my brothers, so I didn't bother checking it. I just tossed the phone into my bag and decided to wander around her room to

Chapter: 15MaxineMom: I’m so sorry honey, Margery’s car had some faults this morning, it’s at the shop. What time are you done? I’d come get you and then go back to work.I read my mom’s text on my phone.It’s currently pouring rain, so there’s absolutely no way to get back home unless she comes to get me. Or, I could just follow Bran home.No.We had a heated academic argument in Literature class about The Handmaid’s Tale and I’m still mad. I could also ask Poppy to drop me off since she lives near, but it feels too soon to be asking for favors. I don't want my mom to have to leave work, either.“I think Bran’s heading over here,” Poppy nudged me. I turned around almost immediately.“Hey, ready to leave?” he asked, holding a closed umbrella.Oh. He’s offering me a ride back?“Yeah, sure,” I nodded, grabbing a textbook from my locker and shutting it. “Bye, Poppy!” I waved at her, and she threw me a small wink before I left with Bran.I sent a text back to my mom.Me: It’s fine mom, I’d catch a

Chapter: 14Maxine“You are staring,” Bran said, drawing me out of my daze.“Sorry,” I mumbled too quickly, looking away.I waited for him to put on his shoes and get dressed properly before we left the pool area together and headed toward the film room.“What college do you want to attend?” Bran asked, breaking the awkward silence of our walk.My heart skipped a beat at the question. It was something I didn't want to talk about, or even think about. It made me feel totally unprepared because it’s my senior year and I still don't have a solid answer.“Why did your heart skip a beat? I didn’t think it was such a triggering question,” Bran said.My eyes widened and my head snapped toward him. “How can you hear my heart beat, you freak?” I nudged him with my elbow.He scoffed. “Like I said, I’m not human.”“Yeah, right.” I rolled my eyes.“So, you don’t know what college you want to apply to?” he asked. He looked like someone who had his entire life planned out in a spreadsheet, so I was sure he was

Chapter: 13MaxineI managed to get through the rest of class without driving my pen through Piper’s neck from behind, which I’m very grateful for. These brothers bring out the worst in me. My next three classes were with Poppy and Elodie. Even though Bran wasn’t in those classes, Johnny and Mike were but we don’t have whatever it is Bran and I have, so it was bearable.I mean not like Bran and I have anything, of course. It’s just… he talks to me.It’s lunchtime, but the teacher who takes the class I have after lunch wants to see me for some reason.“Hi, Mrs. Lawson,” I grinned sheepishly as I walked into her office.“Miss Lawson,” she corrected me with a polite smile.“I’m sorry. You called for me?” I said.“Ahh, yes. So, for our class after lunch, we’ll be watching a movie adaptation of one of the novels we have to read, and I want you and Brandon to set up the film room and pick which one we’ll be seeing today,” she said.My lips form an O.“Brandon as in Brandon Glass?”She nodded.“Okay, su
