My dad gave me a curious look. "Why do you always get rich guys to court you?" He wondered out loud.
Rich guys? I wondered. And then it took me a while to remember that Al told them a lie that he was loaded with cash.
I jerked my thumb at Al. "Actually, he's broke-" Before I could finish, Prick covered my mouth with his hand.
"Filthy rich!" Al yelled loud enough that it drowned out what I was saying.
“I accept Tyrelle as my daughter's admirer.” My mom suddenly declared, making me aware that the other guy was still here. “Aelfric and Tyrelle, I insist you both join us for dinner. I will cook a feast.”
Tyrelle offered them a thankful small bow while Al beamed happily. At this point, you can t
I never thought that helping one guy would change my life forever. I know that it isn't the best thing to say, but I really regret helping that boy back at the alley.And by ‘boy,’ I meant Al. I swear, that guy has caused me nothing but trouble. And what’s worse is that there are two of them now."Gabby, don't forget to text us if you're running late!" Just as I went out of the house, my mother cried out from behind me. It's only because we had two guys as visitors the day before that she believes I'd start dating one of them.Am I suppose to get used to this from now on?When I got close to the bus stop, I noticed a car parked in front of our house. Tyrelle was staring at me through the rolled-down car window. "Gabriella, the killer smile, climb in."
Lunchtime came, and Tyrelle waited outside the door of my last class. The guy was too good looking for his own good that students kept looking at him as they passed by.The class had two doors, and since I didn’t want to be seen by him, I used the other exit.I smirked. That stupid mutt didn't think this through. No way will I eat out with him! I just want both of them to stay away from me.Someone suddenly tugged my ponytail, and I yelped in response. “Where do you think you're going?”I turned and glared at Tyrelle. “What?” I snapped. “Why’d you do that for? That hurts.”“You promised that we would go out for lunch.” His tone of voice was challenging and dema
"Are we there yet?" I asked for the nth time. We have been driving for a while now and I was getting bored. I was pretty sure I was already late for class, so I made no further effort to return. There's no point in that because I'm convinced they won't even let me go if I ask politely.With each passing time, the driver seemed more and more irritated with me. I suppose the only reason they haven't snapped at me is that I am important to them. But I did discover something significant. I'm aware that these guys are affiliated with Tyrelle. I mean, I did hear the name Gawen mentioned."We are almost there, Lady Killer Smile." One of the men said.That too. The way they address me is a given hint that they are with Tyrelle.I swear. If I get my hands on that scheming a
I must confess that the Gridon estate had a neat and organized atmosphere. If I had come here under different circumstances, I might have loved strolling through the grounds. Outdoors have never been my thing, but going through here made me reconsider.Lui stepped in front of the mansion's double doors as he approached it. He ushered me in by opening one of the doors for me. The interior floor was black and gold marbled tiling, while the walls were a deep maroon hue. I saw a spiral staircase leading up to the second floor is in front of us. Lui led me to it, and we quickly ascended upstairs.The second level reminded me of a hotel room because there were so many passageways and rooms that you would tend to get lost very quickly. Lui led me to the third floor, where there were only approximately seven unoccupied rooms. We passed the sixth room and proceeded to t
Tyrelle called the next day to say he'd pick me up for school. I only agreed to it because of a particular deal. He told me that his pack members frequently scouted my area to spy on both Aelfric and me. We had a bit of a dispute over the phone over it, but there's not much he can do not when he isn't the Alpha. But he did assure me that if we could persuade his family of our 'relationship,' they might be willing to give us a bit of space.Mom and dad overheard my conversation with Tyrelle over the phone. Well, more like they were eavesdropping because I caught them both peeking at the kitchen door while eating my breakfast. So to say, I was ambushed by my parents the moment I got out of the kitchen. My father was spraying cologne on me while my mom attacked my hair with a comb."Mom, you are pulling my hair! And dad, where did you buy that feminine perfu
“Stop following me. Both of you!” I snapped at both Tyrelle and Al as they continued to follow me like lost children as I headed for the cafeteria to get myself some lunch. “You guys have already put me in a lot of trouble as it is. The least that you guys can do is leave me alone.” I glared at them and pointed to the empty tray that I was holding in a threatening way.Al crossed his arms and leered at Tyrelle. “You heard her, mutt. Scram!”Tyrelle barred his fangs at Al. “Don’t pick a fight with me, hybrid, when you’re obviously the one to blame here.”“The thing earlier wasn’t my fault,” Al grumbled. “It’s just detention anyway. What’s the big deal?”“What&
Al was still on edge for the entire day, and if Tyrelle and I have not been keeping tabs on him, I was afraid that he might have wandered off to kill Julie. And speaking of my long-time lunchmate, Tyrelle told me something disturbing about her. That Julie is a witch.At this point, it’s not like it’s that hard to believe. If Al and Tyrelle exist then why can’t there be a witch? But it now brings me to wonder what kind of other supernatural creatures are out there?And what is up with this town being run by wolves?I couldn’t quite understand the situation, but I chose to push the thoughts aside and decided to focus on the task at hand: to finish up my apology letter so I could leave detention.But as hard as I try, it was still difficult bec
Tyrelle yanked me back up on my feet before I could grasp what had happened. He moved in front of me and kicked the wolf's side, sending it sliding on the concrete floor as soon as the wolf in front of us jumped forward.“Trespassers.” He growled before looking at me. “Run!” He ordered and began to drag me towards the direction of the forest.“Shouldn’t we run back to school? We could hide in the rooms.” I suggested.“There are still a few people left in that building. Don’t worry. My pack must have smelled their scent and are probably headed this way.” We ran much deeper into the woods than I would have liked. Tyrelle finally came to a halt and forced me into the bushes before I could react. When I looked up, I saw Tyrelle holding the wolf's neck in his ha
