ВойтиCHAPTER THIRTEEN — Fever DreamsAfter sleeping almost the entire day, Miguel still felt terrible.His pheromones had stayed painfully unstable the whole time. Every few hours, another wave of heat would crawl beneath his skin until Caius silently handed him another suppressant patch without even looking up from whatever book he was reading.At first Miguel took them shamelessly. By the fifth patch, he started feeling guilty, because Caius’s suppressants were running out embarrassingly fast now.Miguel laid face down against the bed with half his face buried into the pillow, glaring weakly at absolutely nothing. His entire body still felt overheated.“This is so stupid…” he muttered hoarsely.The room smelled heavily of suppressants now. Miguel slowly pushed himself upright with a groan. His head immediately throbbed painfully. “…Ow.”Across the room, Caius sat calmly on the small couch near the window, one leg crossed over the other while flipping over pages of whatever book he was ho
CHAPTER TWELVE — Just Like ChaosMiguel was already regretting this.“This is ridiculous,” he muttered under his breath while shoving another hoodie into the half opened bag lying on Caius’s floor.The room stayed silent except for the occasional sound of pages turning.Miguel glanced up irritably.Caius was laying comfortably on the bed with one leg bent slightly, completely relaxed while reading yet another novel like Miguel moving his entire life into his room wasn’t his problem at all.Actually, It technically wasn’t.Miguel clicked his tongue and continued unpacking aggressively.Unlike most students at Juvenile Academy, Miguel had always stayed alone. Usually rooms were shared between two students. Sometimes even three if dorms became crowded.But Miguel Ashford was different. Because his father practically owned half the Academy. So nobody complained when Miguel got an entire room to himself and now Caius...But somehow, he ended up voluntarily moving into Caius’s room. Miguel p
CHAPTER ELEVEN — A Deal With The DevilSitting at the same table with Caius felt weird.Miguel placed the two cafeteria trays down stiffly before taking the seat opposite him. The entire cafeteria had already gotten quieter the moment he walked in carrying food himself.For Caius.Caius looked down at the tray calmly before lifting his eyes slowly toward Miguel. “You remembered I don’t eat tomatoes.”Miguel’s jaw tightened immediately. “You said it yesterday.”“Mm.”That stupid calm reaction somehow irritated him more.Across the cafeteria, Dax and Ash stared at the scene like they’d just witnessed the apocalypse.“…No,” Dax whispered slowly. “Absolutely not.”Ash’s expression looked darker than usual, his eyes fixed directly on Caius like he wanted to throw him through a wall.Because what the hell were they looking at right now?Miguel Ashford? Serving someone?Worse. Serving a Beta.“What did he do to him?” Dax muttered under his breath, horrified.Ash stayed silent. If looks could
CHAPTER TEN — Stay Close to HimA knock suddenly echoed against the classroom door. The professor paused mid sentence with an annoyed expression. “Yes?”The door slid open slightly before one of the staffs stepped inside nervously. “Sorry for the interruption, sir.” His eyes quickly searched the classroom before landing on Miguel. “Miguel Ashford?”Every head turned immediately.Miguel frowned slightly from his seat. “What?”“The office needs you immediately.”A few students whispered quietly.Dax leaned back in his chair. “Damn. What did you do now?”Miguel ignored him completely and stood up slowly. The moment he stepped out into the hallway, the staff’s expression changed immediately into something uneasy.Miguel noticed. “What?”The older man hesitated before speaking carefully. “Your father has been trying to contact you since yesterday.”Miguel’s expression instantly darkened.Of course.His phone was still filled with missed calls from both his father and the family secretary.
CHAPTER NINE — Morning AfterThe rays of sunlight slipped quietly through the thin gap between the curtains, stretching across the bed in soft golden lines.Miguel stirred slowly. His brows furrowed faintly before his eyes finally opened. For a few seconds, he just stared blankly at the ceiling, still half asleep.Then reality hit him. Miguel sat up abruptly ignoring the pain that shot through him. The blanket slipped slightly from his shoulders as he looked around the room quickly. The overwhelming scent was completely gone now.Silence filled the room quietly. Miguel blinked once before a small breath of relief escaped him unconsciously.His body no longer felt unstable. The heat was gone too. Slowly, Miguel pushed the blanket aside and stood up from the bed carefully, almost expecting his legs to give out again.But they didn’t. His body felt normal and stable now. Miguel stared down at himself for a second before a small smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.“So it was temporary
CHAPTER EIGHT — Locked AwayThree whole days and Miguel had stayed locked inside his room. He hadn’t gathered the courage to step outside even once. His mind had become a constant clouded mess, thoughts crashing into each other until he couldn’t tell which ones were rational anymore. Every time he thought about opening the door, another question immediately followed.What if everyone was right?What if the hospital results weren’t wrong?What if Caius had already told people?His chest tightened again.Talking about people…His friends had been knocking on his door nonstop since the first day. Dax especially.“Miguel! Open the damn door already!” A loud bang followed from outside.Miguel pulled the blanket further over his head irritably.“You’ve been inside for three days!” Dax yelled again through the door. “If you’re dead, at least let me confirm it!”Miguel shut his eyes harder.“I know you’re awake,” Ash’s voice came this time, calmer but still annoyed. “Your pheromones are so di
