Alera's POV

I froze.

What should I say? His eyes were serious—piercing. He didn’t look like the Rayvan who bullied me. His gaze was sharp and focused, as if I was the center of his universe, the only thing he could see.

“Say it, Alera,” he asked, voice softer now. He glanced to his left and right, making sure no one was listening to our conversation.

“Ray... maybe you already know. Lycans can sense each other, right?”

“It’s not just sensing, Alera,” Rayvan cut in.

“I didn’t just recognize your scent. That scent pulls me in. And I hate it. That’s why I need you to tell me—where are you from? Who are you really?”

I took a breath, trying to steady the chaos in my chest. His intense gaze made me restless.

Did he not realize? Just one look from him could shatter my walls. And then there was his scent—haunting me since the very beginning. Like a magnet. Relentless.

“I’m a Rogue now. I even wanted to bury my past. Living as a human... isn’t that so bad?”

I smiled. If he looked closely, he wo

  • BULLIED BY MY MATE    He Knew Something

    Alera’s POVThe arrival of Professor Christian and some of our friends startled me. I also saw the same surprise in Rayvan’s eyes. We looked like thieves caught red-handed.“What are you doing outside the cabin this late at night? It's freezing out here.” Professor Christian stared at us flatly. It wasn’t like him to act this cold.“I couldn’t sleep, Professor Christian. So Rayvan and I talked for a while.” My voice trembled. I could see my friends looking at us suspiciously. There were Alan, Alex, Zack, and even Richard.“Talking in the middle of the night like this? You two wanted to cuddle, didn’t you?” Zack smirked, the corner of his lips curling upward.“Zack, it’s not what you think. We were just talking, nothing more.” Rayvan said firmly.“Just talking? I’m not a kid you can fool.” Zack sneered again, his gaze sharp and piercing. He had always been Rayvan’s rival.“Rayvan, Alera, I heard you’re dating. I know, maybe you wanted to spend time together or enjoy the night. But this

  • BULLIED BY MY MATE    A Whisper in the Dark

    Alera’s POVI heard a voice calling my name, breaking through the night with a mix of desperate shouts and long, haunting howls. I glanced at the cheerleaders around me who were still fast asleep.“Aleraaaa...”The voice was unmistakably clear. Who was calling me at this hour? I grabbed my thick jacket and slipped it on for warmth before stepping out of the cabin. The camp was silent, every student seemed to have fallen into deep sleep.“Aleraaaa...”The call grew louder. I tried to follow the sound, my steps taking me toward the riverbank. It seemed to be coming from the other side of the stream. Could it be a Lycan in need of help?I walked along the river, scanning my surroundings. The world was drenched in darkness, lit only by the faint silver glow of the moon. The howling grew nearer, until my breath caught. Three grown men stood in front of me, their eyes glinting with something feral.“Finally, we found you, Rouge. Come with us. You don’t belong here. Alpha Damian is waiting f

  • BULLIED BY MY MATE    Awakened

    Alera's POVThe howling grew louder, sharper, yet no one else in the hall seemed to notice. Was I the only one who heard it? Were there still packs living in Ravenshade? As far as I knew, they’d all moved to Moonvale.The scent of a Lycan was thick in the air. I knew some Lycans studied here, but their scent was never this overpowering. It didn’t make sense. Ever since my first shift, I’d become more sensitive to scents, sounds, anything related to Lycans. Sometimes I even had nightmares. I shook my head. I needed to focus on tonight.After briefly discussing why some students joined the winter camp, Professor Christian offered us words of encouragement—reminding us to be students with integrity, a thirst for knowledge, and the courage to innovate. He was well-known for being genuinely supportive of his students, always pushing us to grow and achieve something meaningful in life. He carried a warm, positive presence that made students feel at ease around him. No wonder Samantha admire

  • BULLIED BY MY MATE    Winter Camp

    Alera’s POVWinter camp was the one holiday event everyone at college looked forward to. We weren’t camping in tents under the stars, but instead, we’d rented a set of wooden cabins nestled near the Ravenshade River.We brought quite a lot with us—thick jackets, wool socks, boots, flashlights, and survival gear like pocketknives and rope. There were meds, snacks, and ingredients for slow-cooked meals we’d prepare together.Each cabin could fit five people. Whether it was luck or some twisted joke, I ended up sharing a cabin with the cheer squad—Lilian, Clara, Samantha, and Lisa. I could only hope they'd tone down their usual bullying, even just a little.As I carried my bag toward the cabin, I spotted Rayvan and his friends unloading their gear. For a moment, his eyes met mine. My heart skipped. His scent still lingered, intoxicating as ever. I used to resist the pull of it, but now I didn’t even try. I let myself fall. He’s my mate.He smiled—a soft, beautiful smile that melted somet

  • BULLIED BY MY MATE    Falling in Love

    Rayvan’s POVTonight, the air feels colder than usual. Winter in Moonvale always brings memories that never truly fade—and I know this one will follow me back to Ravenshade.My mother made beef steak, seasoned with the Bloodveil pack’s traditional herbs. She brewed me a cup of herbal tea as well. The kind of meal that warms the body and the soul.Whenever we gather like this, our dinners are filled with warmth. Not just from the food, but from lighthearted conversation and the comfort of family. But tonight, I feel tense. My heart is pounding. I want to tell them I’ve found my mate. I’m not sure how they’ll take it. But I can’t hide it anymore.“Ray, eat more. You probably won’t get beef steak like this over there. And the herbs—well, they’re our pack’s specialty.” My mother places a plate of beef steak in front of me.“Thanks, Mom. I could’ve gotten it myself.”She smiles, the kind of smile only a mother gives. “It’s alright. When you come home, you’re royalty.”I return a small smil

  • BULLIED BY MY MATE    A Conversation That Matters

    Rayvan’s POVThis winter break, I decided to spend a week in Moonvale with my family. The following week, I’ll be returning to Ravenshade for the winter camp. I have a feeling this year’s camp will be more exciting because Alera is joining too. I don’t want to miss a moment with her.Father sent John, our family’s driver, and Peter, his personal guard, to pick me up from the dorm. When the car arrived, I simply got in. My bags were already packed.As the car passed the girls’ dorm, I glanced toward the row of rooms. One of them might be Alera’s. She said she’d be staying in Moonvale during the break. An orphan with no home to return to, she chose to remain on campus and work part-time at the coffee shop before it closed for the season.I had to admit, Alera was strong and independent. She carried her burdens alone and never leaned on anyone, not even me. I had vowed never to let her walk alone again. Now that I had accepted her as my mate, I would always protect her, just as she had q
