ARDEN

“Are you alright?” Tessa asked, her brows furrowed with concern as we sat together in the library, waiting for Cade and Rowan to arrive. I was feeling increasingly under the weather, a sense of heat creeping up on me.

She placed her hand lightly over my forehead and hissed, “You’re hot.”

“Thanks,” I muttered jokingly, trying to lighten the mood.

“Well, you are hot—literally,” she replied, her expression shifting into one of seriousness. “Are you sick?”

“It might have been the party yesterday,” I suggested with a slight shrug. “Or perhaps it’s the cold showers we take in our dorm.”

She chuckled softly, but her worry didn’t entirely dissipate. “Are you really okay? Do you need any medicine?”

I shook my head firmly. “We have a presentation in two days, and I can’t afford to miss it.”

But despite my determination, I couldn’t shake the growing heat from my body. “Do you mind if I splash some water on my face? I think it might cool me down a bit.”

“Go ahead,” she urged. “Do you need m

    ARDEN“How can you even watch that?” I asked Owen as I peeled an apple for him. “Aren’t you supposed to be resting?” “Yeah—resting,” Owen smiled. “But I’m not here to rot. I watched it because it was blowing up on the Echo, and I wasn’t disappointed at all. It really was quite entertaining,” he teased.I stabbed the apple with the small knife, leaving it in place as I turned to Owen, glaring at him. “Maybe you should just rot in your bed.”Tessa burst into laughter, swiping the apple from my hands and continuing the task. “It’s so much fun teasing Arden.”“But what we’re saying is true,” she added. “Most of the students have probably watched it. Some people are even asking for a copy, but there’s no way to reproduce it.”I turned to her and quietly sighed in relief. The site was quite foolproof when it came to distribution. You couldn’t even record the screen with another device, as it just showed up as a black screen. The only person who had the means to possess a copy was none othe

    ARDENThere was only one question stuck in my mind—what the hell was happening? After I slept with Cade, the other Alphas shouldn’t be interested anymore! So tell me, why was Jaxon chasing me all the way to my dorm? “Arden, please!” he exclaimed while I ran for my life. I couldn’t shake him off, and I cursed under my breath as my heart raced. First, Elias had been texting me non-stop since I hadn’t replied to him this morning, insisting that we go on a “date.” Second, Rowan actually had the audacity to ask me to give him a chance?And now Jaxon was begging me to take him back? Why in the world was all of this happening right after I slept with Cade? Thankfully, Hades’ Dorm was finally in view, so I quickened my steps despite the pain shooting through my thighs. Damn Cade and his big dick. I noticed the stares of other students as they turned to look at us, but even then, my only focus was on escaping from Jaxon. I finally reached our dorm and quickly slammed the door in his face

    ARDEN“How is it?” Cade asked as he lay next to me, glancing over with a curious expression.“Do you really have to ask that?” I groaned, unable to hide my embarrassment.He smirked, his gaze fixed on the ceiling. “Well, it was your first time,” he muttered casually.“It’s… nice,” I whispered almost to myself, hoping the admission would stay between us.“What was that?” he asked, but I could tell from his teasing tone that he wasn’t buying my attempt at nonchalance. I nudged his shoulder without looking directly at him.A deep chuckle escaped his lips, somehow reminiscent of his moans, and it made me feel even more self-conscious. “Is it true?” I asked, attempting to shift the conversation away from the current topic.“What?” he replied, momentarily distracted.“That you weren’t sleeping around in Elite.” I felt him pause beside me, and when I glanced over, I saw an unreadable expression cross his face.“Why’d you ask? Were you monitoring me?” “No!” I quickly exclaimed, my voice a b

    CADEGoing to Elite wasn’t entirely my choice. I’ve always thought that labeling a werewolf based on the institution they went to instead of how they were as an entity was skewed. Others automatically think higher of you because you’re from Elite, and at the same time, it granted others to treat those who didn’t attend it with hostility. “I’m respected enough to not go to Elite,” I said to my mom, who appeared just as exasperated as my dad. “I know,” my mom said, massaging the bridge of her nose. “But this is a grand opportunity, Cade. One that a true Alpha cannot pass on.” In the end, my fate was already sealed. So, with this sealed fate of mine, I decided to do something worthwhile instead—and that was to find out if Elite was truly as perfect as it seems. On my first day, it was already apparent that it was not. The bias. The special treatment. The point system. All of them denoted something that aimed to separate us further. I knew being on top would give me the benefit of

    ARDEN I glanced at the phone and knew it wasn’t filming just yet. However, why did Cade appear quite passionate about this already? His hands moved through my body, carressing every inch and making me shudder with each contact. “Do you really have to do this?” I asked, covering my eyes with my arms. He sighed and removed them gently. “Of course, I need to,” he muttered. “It’s going to hurt, but with this, it wouldn’t hurt as much. You need to feel pleasured as early as possible." “You’re not going to start recording?” I muttered. “No,” he said. “The shorter the live stream, the better, don’t you think?” I nodded in agreement. However, for a while, I couldn’t feel his touch on my body. With that, I slowly removed my arms from my eyes and looked at him with confusion. It was hard to make out his expression in the dark, but I could feel he was holding back. “What’s wrong?” I asked softly. He sighed and ran his fingers through his hair, which was still a little bit damp from his

    ARDENThe view from our seat was absolutely unreal. Cade and I found ourselves at a hotel half an hour away from Elite, where he had ordered an impressive spread for our dinner. As I gazed out the window, I could see Elite shimmering from a distance, its bright lights and the tall trees surrounding it making it stand out like a jewel in the night. Turning back to Cade, I noticed he was silently cutting up the steak. “You didn’t have to bring me here, you know?” I said, awkwardly pretending to fixate on the massive chandelier above us rather than acknowledging the significance of this night. He gave a small nod and pushed the plate of meat toward me. My eyes lit up at the sight, and I immediately seized a piece with my fork. “I know,” he muttered, crossing his arms over his chest as he watched me devour my food. “But I don’t want to catch my unit on camera, and I’m guessing you wouldn’t want your first time to be in the Elite mansions.” I swallowed my bite. Fair. I couldn’t refu
