Gwen POV:

The raspy voice, carrying an invisible pressure, poured down like a bucket of ice water, instantly silencing the surrounding jeers. The wall of people tightly surrounding me suddenly parted to both sides, hastily retreating to maintain an absolute safe distance.

As the space in the hallway opened up, our vision was completely cleared. From the main entrance leading to the grand hall, the tall silhouette of the speaker caught my eye. He wore an oversized black hoodie, the hood pulled d

  • Don't Wake The White Wolf   Chapter 32: The Slip and the Skipping Heartbeat

    Gwen POV:My eyes locked onto his. I couldn't believe it—what on earth was he doing in this God-forsaken corner? The fleeting moment of bewilderment made me completely forget that this guy was serving the exact same punishment.As our skin accidentally brushed, the heat radiating between us triggered an instant spike of adrenaline, sending a sharp jolt straight up my spine. I jerked my hand back immediately, dodging the high-voltage contact—whether it was deliberate or just an accident, I had no clue."You should only fill that bucket halfway instead of hauling it to the brim. You can barely carry it as it is, and keep straining like that, you're going to snap your wrist before you know it."Ashton’s voice sounded almost concerned, but it carried the distinct edge of a mockery. Before I could pull my wits together, I was left completely speechless, swallowing hard over and over. A sudden, creeping chill traveled down my spine at being left alone with the guy whose very presence automa

  • Don't Wake The White Wolf   Chapter 31: Nominal Jokes and Isolated Truths

    Gwen POV:"Be my girlfriend"—it sounded like nothing more than a sick joke. It carried more than enough weight to bruise anyone's self-esteem if the person saying it didn't mean a single word of it.Yet, looking at that unsettlingly serious expression on Chris's face, I couldn't for the life of me guess what kind of game he was playing. This was insane... or was it just another performance?He stared at me without blinking. That unsettling composure made it impossible to tell where the truth ended and the lie began. That calm demeanor was precisely what made him so infuriating. It gave even the most absurd words the unsettling illusion of having been meticulously calculated beforehand.If I hadn't seen right through the plotting hidden beneath that polished facade, I probably would have fallen for it.My chest tightened as if someone were squeezing the air right out of me. The annoyance that had just begun to subside instantly flared back into a blazing fire.The mere presence of Chri

  • Don't Wake The White Wolf   CHAPTER 30: Be My Girlfriend

    Gwen POV:A long, dragging day melted away. My only salvation was tomorrow—Sunday, the day the school schedule finally loosened its grip.Just the thought of curling up in my quiet little corner to hide from the chaos made the corners of my lips curve upward. The blueprint for a day of absolute peace was already mapped out: cleaning, decorating, and cooking a genuinely good meal. Nothing beat molding a tiny apartment into the exact sanctuary I had spent so long yearning for.Lost in that comforting vision, I let out a soft chuckle until a familiar set of footsteps yanked me back to reality. Mr. Kenneth walked in, carrying the heavy, oppressive atmosphere that always accompanied the weekend homeroom briefing."Good morning, class!"He called out, his gaze sweeping across the room before hastily darting past my desk in the back of the fourth row. The guilty set of his shoulders told me he was still nursing some residual conscience over the inspection board incident the other day.I casua

  • Don't Wake The White Wolf   CHAPTER 29: RAGING FURY

    Gwen POV:My eyes were bloodshot, glaring straight into the redhead's smug face. Giving zero damns about her cheap threat, I took a deep breath, my chest heaving as I choked back the words to expose that bastard Chris's sick joke.Before I could spit out a single syllable, that arrogant prick beat me to it.Chris lowered his voice. The exact second he did, a heavy, suffocating pressure—a thick wave of male cologne laced with crisp citrus and spicy clove—slammed straight into my nose. My chest seized up out of nowhere. That nauseous, suffocating feeling from lately flared up again, making me curse the damn aftereffects of tumbling into that sewage pond. His gaze swept the area cold as a razor, radiating an overpowering authority that forced the surrounding crowd to instantly shrink, shoulders hunching and necks pulling in from pure terror. His hair-trigger, reckless temper, long his trademark, made him roar without a single shred of hesitation, his gravelly pitch sharp enough to slice

  • Don't Wake The White Wolf   CHAPTER 28: A DANGEROUS LIE

    Gwen POV:Everything after that sharp confrontation didn't exactly go as smoothly as I had imagined.Still, the gloomy weight inside me had dissipated somewhat after I finally dared to unleash a full-blown fury right into the face of the dangerous, unapproachable guy named Ashton Hayes. But here at Blackwood Academy, peace seemed to be a luxury concept—one drama barely settled before another was already lining up to take its place.The next morning, I got ready for school like any other day. The morning bus was noticeably emptier than usual. Glancing down the rows of seats, I saw no sign of Ashton anywhere.Why on earth am I even looking for that guy?I clicked my tongue, mentally scolding myself for my wandering thoughts, and adjusted my posture.Outside the window, fluffy white clouds drifted across the crystal-clear sky of a pristine early morning. The weather was so gorgeous it seemed to sweep away every trivial annoyance. I put in my earbuds, swaying along to the upbeat rhythm of

  • Don't Wake The White Wolf   CHAPTER 27: THE FOOL'S GOLD TRAP

    POV GWEN MILLER:Stamping my feet in fury as I marched back to my seat, my chest felt dangerously close to bursting like an over-pressurized boiler.Being stalked through the shadows by a dangerous presence had already pushed my nerves to the breaking point, and now a stubborn, infuriating jerk like Ashton Hayes had to come along and test the absolute limits of my endurance. His arrogant nature and devil-may-care attitude made me want to shove my metal pen straight down his throat. My boiling frustration translated into heavy, deliberate footsteps that battered the classroom floor.The moment I pulled out my chair and looked up, my gaze collided straight with Julian’s. His eyes held a steady, observant depth, as if he were silently assessing how I had managed to "survive" my clash with that feral beast. Shifting my glance slightly to the side, I immediately felt the familiar weight of Chris's attention—still quiet and distant, yet carrying a distinct, watchful focus.And standing awkw
