Nova stared at the photo displayed on the screen of her cellphone.

It was her boyfriend Lucas kissing his new girlfriend or "old" girlfriend like he had put it.

When did it all end, she thought.

A week ago he was all over her, doing the most for her to accept him as her boyfriend but now that she had accepted him, he was already making her regret it by dumping her already?

Lest she forgot, she was not dumped, she was just used as a "stand in" like Lucas has put it.

He had just used her as a stand in to replace his girlfriend who had travelled out of the country for a summit her parents had registered her for abroad.

Never in her life had she felt so used and dumped.

The audacity to send her a video of him making out with his new girlfriend or the old girlfriend, whatever she was to him, how would he dare send her a video of them making out?

To spite her?

To make her feel jealous?

To feel superior?

Holy cow, he wasn't even that handsome.

His nose did not accentuate his face anyway, and he was medium height.

He wasn't tall like her dream man.

Did he know whom she was or what her grandmother was.

Did he....... She thought loudly to herself to herself, her visible disgust not hidden from her face.

She stood from the balcony of her house she was in and left.

Today was Saturday, schools did not hold and it wouldn't be until 8pm before her grandmother would return for her lessons on how to wield powers from different realms.

Sometimes she did not understand why her grandmother was going all the miles to ensure she taught her powers and chants even though she did not know how to perform them herself. Wouldn't it be better for her to learn the super powers or whatever it was she always called it by herself and exert her vengeance by herself for herself.

What was the use of always involving her in her own affair. She thought.

It was 6pm,she had two hours before her grandmother returned.

She thought of going to Lucas' house to confront him but thought against it.

It was useless anyway. Besides they didn't have a thing to begin with.

Perhaps he has sent her the video to spite her because she had refused making out with him the other day at the women's toilet at school.

He was crazy, crazy crazy.

An idea occured to her.

She decided to go to a club house and make out with anyone too and send the video to him too.

To spite him of what he couldn't get from her.

It seemed like a better idea to her. "An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" she owed him no loyalty anyway, considering how she had been used as a stand in for his main girlfriend.

Within a few minutes she was at the "Silver Phoenix", it was the clubhouse famous amongsts the students of Midnight Hollow School for the Supernatural, a school where both humans and supernatural beings schooled without anyone knowing who was who.

"You're not allowed in miss, your ID says that you are under 18" went the security who prevented her from entering.

" I am not under 18! I am already 18! Don't you see it in the ID card? I will be 18 next week. Today is already Saturday, I will be 18 in five days time" she yelled, transferring the aggression that filled her to the security who stood his guard on not letting her in unless she came with a guardian or an "older friend".

This disgusted her. Why wouldn't he just let her in since she had 5 days remaining to turn Eighteen.

"I will go in with her" came a voice behind her.

She looked back. He was handsome, that was all she noted. He was handsome.

She looked at the security and smirked and went in.

"Much for all the troubles" she said and went in, leaving him to confirm the age of her "helper"

"A goblet of Bacchanalian Brew please" she ordered, watching the waiter not move from where she stood.

"Sorry, but I was informed that you are still underaged, hence I can't serve you your request"

" Oh wow"

" A goblet of Bacchanalian Brew please" came the voice from her back.

It was her helper. Was he ordering her same order to showoff to her or what? She thought.

" Alright. I know that you helped me get in, but I think you should stop following me by now" she told him

" Follow you? I came here to behold Phoenixes newest dancers" he said pointing at the girls who stood on the platform, some vaguely dressed and some not, dancing to all who cared to look.

She smirked her face and left him to mix in with the crowd.

Boys she thought, he was just like Lucas, perverts always looking for opportunities.

"Oh yeah, shake your body!! Yohh yohhhh!!! " She screamed on top her lungs as she danced like other people she saw were. She tried to fit in while hunting for whom she'd use to spite Lucas, he wasn't that important to her but she would spite him too like he had done.

" You dance beautifully, though you still seem like an amateur" came a voice behind her ears.

She sighed, it must be her " follower", turning she realized he was the one truly.

She faces her back and moves without speaking to him.

She saw a boy passing her by and pulled him close to her and kissed him. But she was shunned by his girlfriend who came and dragged him away from her.

So much for men who couldn't turn women down. Were their girlfriends meant to be the ones to fight women in their behalf? She shaked her head.

She touched her lips. It had a weird taste. Perhaps the drink the guy she had kissed took. But the kiss was short lived and she didn't get to capture it.

She moved on, with her phone clutched tight to her hands, she moved to find the next prey.

" You won't find a guy to kiss that way. A word of advice from me actually. If you repeat what you did before, you might not walk away from here tonight alive. Hidden beneath most girls here are powers they inherited from their bloodlines, you wouldn't want to mess with any of them to avoid being killed"

There he went again with his unsolicited talks and advice, she turned again. This time, she did not speak to him.

Instead she took the drink her held from his hands and gobbled the remaining down her throat.

" What if I pay you then? What if I paid you to kiss me? Would a girl kill me as well?"

" Depends on the type of kiss you want to pay me for" be said advancing his steps towards her.

"Pervert" she muttered under her breathe.

" A pervert only for you" he said smiling. " Most women don't get to see this part of me" he continued.

" I'm not most women and I really don't care" she replied and turned to walk away.

"Where are you going?" He asked her, grabbing her by her arms. She noticed he was stronger than she and seemed determine.

"To see a friend" she lied, hoping he'd let her go. She wanted to go. This stranger smelled like trouble and seemed like one.

"I don't see anyone looking like your friend anywhere around here" he says, slowly moving closer to her.

His hand was gripping her arm and she watched helplessly as his second hand swiftly moved to her waist.

She did not know whether she was hypnotized that instant but all she knew was that she stood numb, watching him have his way touching her.

He looked down at her meeting her brown eyes, he lowered his gaze down to her lips.

He stared at her lips, tilting his head a little as he gets closer.

The tip of his sharp tongue nudged hers. She noticed she was bleeding and he did too, which made him hesitant to do anything further.

She didn't fail to notice it, so she leans closer, brushing her lips against his.

"That would cost you five Diamonds" be said, shifting from her and retracting his hands from her body.

"Oh well excuse me" she said waving her cell phone.

" I didn't tell you to kiss me yet, besides, I didn't get to capture it. Why would I pay you for what you did out of your own accord?"

Realizing she had come with the intention of recording herself kiss someone, he smiled.

" Why are you smiling?" She asked him.

"Do you want me to show you something better than being kissed?" He asked.

She shuddered, and accepted to take his arms which he had offered her, seduced by the sin lurking in front of her. She wanted to feel and experience what was better than being kissed.

Not at all. She still felt that he somehow haboured resentments towards her.He was a rogue. Before Alpha Logan had accepted him into his pack.And then he had survived, attacking werewolf packs with his gang, stealing food and other goods.That had been how he survived before. And as they had huge bodies, it made them feared.But that has been before he,their leader submitted to Logan's authority, bringing his association of banished werewolves and rogues like himself to the pack.But he had lost his authority as second in command when she had defeated him in a duel.Then, when she arrived firstly, they had consid

    The next morning, Damien had called for a meeting for all cabinet members. When everyone had arrived, the hall had been chilly as each anticipated what he wanted to say. Skylar had gotten the call to attend the meeting but she hadn't budged an inch from the stone she sat, watching her father back at the healers lair. What is the point of it? She had questioned herself after recalling how Damien had treated her like a commoner back in his chambers the previous night. Even a lowly omega. Their treatments were better compared to how he had humiliated her the previous day. So she considered it useless honoring his call for the cabinet members which she was not a part of. She had been attending the previous ones because she considered herself royalty and this deserving to be present. Nowadays she didn't even know what she was. Daughter of a dethroned alpha or perhaps a deceased one. **Damien noticed Skylar's absence but didn't think much about it. It was right to let her know wher

    The guards on duty in front of Damien's lair hadn't noticed when Skylar sneaked in. She was desperate. And desperate times called for desperate measures. She didn't want to be seen entering his chambers lest being announced not just to Damien, she risked Freya getting to know that she was about to meet him. She would interfere. Definitely. That was why each conspiracy she got to uncover, all fingers could would point towards Freya for being responsible for each. She feared that she craved more than Damien and being his Luna while being in the pack. And if her goals were to be realized without anyone finding out on time, she risked the balance and harmony of the pack being disturbed. Damien drew his dagger when he noticed a shadow entering his lair. When he noticed the figure through the lighted sticks hanged all over his wall, he threw his arm on the floor on realizing that it was his sister. "Skylar. What are you doing here?" He asked coldly. He didn't want to see her. And in

    On sneaking inside the lair after they had gone,Skylar made sure she kept the water with her.Few minutes after, the healer had come out of his hidden chambers, clearly oblivious to what had happened previously."Princess, what brings you here at this hour" he asked lovingly, surprised to find her there.It was yet to be midnight, the normal time she usually came to settle in for the night, so she could tell why he had asked her the question.At first her distrusting heart had wanted her to question his motive behind such a question but when she recalled that he had shared a great secret regarding Nova giving birth to an heir with her before, she had cancelled the odds.She stared at him gratefully. He was still the only person who referred her as princess. So it kept her happy that atleast someone else was still concerned about her honor.She brought the water and showed him. He didn't know why she was."Isn't this the water j feed the Alpha alongside his medications?" He had asked a

    Night came but there was still no sign of Nova. Damien had already grown restless. She wasn't found and neither was her body. Assuming she had gotten shot and died off somewhere like one of the soldiers had suggested. But nothing was and this had had him more worried. He didn't know why though but he just couldn't bear that she was unfound. Giving up and as it was already late, they had turned back to return to the pack house. But not without him stationing two of the guards back in the bush, Incase there was a sign of Nova. Incase they were lucky enough to find her. Maybe she was hiding from him. **Back at he pack house, Skylar had come out to stare at the gates of the pack house. There was still no sign of Damien or a y of his soldiers. No message had been sent across to them, Incase anything had happened. And it was already late, which nestled more on her worry and anxiety. She had seen Freya's gamma during the day but he didn't seem perturbed by her absence. Even late at

    It took a while before Damien could get a wind of what had happened. "Where is she?" He has asked impatiently, hoping that one of his men might have shot her down with an arrow which was why she was currently missing. But when everyone, including Freya had gathered, no one seemed to know where she was. Freya seemed least concerned, recalling her gamma whom she had met earlier before coming out on the hunt with them"You will make sure to kill her during the hunt" she had told the muscled man as the party left. Disguising her discussion with him as if she was asking him for help with her arrow. "But only those let in the hunt are allowed to shoot arrows. I am not invited and thus won't be able to participate" he had declared hours ago. But Freya had been able to get him to sneak into the bush with them.Inder the guise of protecting her, he would lay an ambush for Nova where he would have her killed. If she struggled and this causes her death to be unnatural to the hunting they
