Zuleika… Lanvini Alpha-born, dangerously unhinged, and hotter than sin. With eyes that flash gold when his wolf rises and tattoos that feel more like symbols than ink, he’s the kind of male my parents warned me about. The kind bred to conquer. Heir to the Darkfire Pack. Sworn enemy to mine. And the most powerful wolf on campus. I’m Mistborn—descended from the sacred bloodline of Silvermist. My wolf was supposed to awaken under the moon’s blessing, not from a stolen touch in the dark. But the moment Lanvin brushed against me, something ancient stirred in my bones. My wolf chose him. He’s my natural-born enemy. So why does every part of me want to kneel? Lanvin… She doesn’t know what she is. Doesn’t know the power coiled beneath her skin—or the chaos it could bring. Zuleika is Mistborn. The inner-blood of the Silvermist Pack. Sacred. Protected. Forbidden. She’s also my best friend’s sister. And my fated mate. I felt it the second our wolves brushed souls. A connection no Alpha could sever. Not even my father. But a bond between Silvermist and Darkfire? It’s treason. The kind that starts wars. Still, I’d risk exile. I’d burn my title, my pack, the very laws that raised me—because my wolf won’t let her go. And if fate dares stand between us, I’ll tear the moon from the sky to make her mine.

I lay on my stomach, boobs squished against a pillow, eyes glued to my laptop. Freckles had recommended a bunch of movies, and with Mom and Dad out for the weekend, I finally decided to check one out.
She’d warned me it was R-rated—“Very R,” she’d said with a smirk—but I didn’t care. I wasn’t a teenager. I was twenty, a second-year student at McCall College, and an adult by every standard that mattered.
Halfway through the movie, the sex scenes hit. Hard. And I mean hard.
My body reacted before I could even stop it—heat curling low in my belly, clit throbbing with need. The urge to touch myself grew overwhelming.
I’d never done this before. Masturbation had always felt taboo, something whispered about but never explored. But now? Now I couldn’t stop. My fingers dipped into my slick folds, moans slipping from my lips as the characters on screen went at it like wild animals.
The way they moved reminded me of something primal-feral. The way wolves mated during the full moon.
My head tilted back, black hair tumbling down my back, mouth open as I gasped and whimpered, chasing that high. I was so close—so caught up in the pleasure—I didn’t hear the door creak open.
Didn’t hear footsteps.
Didn’t sense the presence watching me until—
“Masturbating looks boring. I could help you, y’know.”
The deep voice hit me like a lightning strike, dark and familiar. My eyes snapped open in horror.
I froze.
Pulled my hand away. Sat up fast and shoved both hands behind me like that would somehow erase the fact that he had just witnessed all of that.
“Lanvin?” I hissed.
He stood there like the arrogant jackass he was, leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed, that infuriating smirk tugging at his lips. The light from the hallway caught on the silver loop in his left ear, one that marked him as an Alpha heir to his pack. Not mine. Not that I cared.
“I guess you lost your key to manners,” I snapped, my voice sharp and mortified. “Consent is a thing, look it up sometime.”
His smirk deepened. “Didn’t mean to interrupt your little… solo session.”
My face burned. My cheeks probably looked like sunburnt tomatoes.
Zade’s best friend—and the last person I ever wanted to see me like that—just walked in on me getting off to p**n. Kill me. Please.
“What the hell are you even doing here, Lavini?” I demanded, trying to sound pissed rather than mortified.
“I’ve told you, stop calling me Lavini,” he said, ignoring my question. “It’s Lanvin.”
“I’ll call you whatever I damn well please.” I slammed the laptop shut, which had still been playing moans loud enough to haunt my soul. “So again, what are you doing here?”
He tilted his head, glancing at the now-quiet laptop, then back at me. “Didn’t think a sweet little thing like you would watch that kind of stuff. Guess you’re not as innocent as you act.”
He said it like he could smell it on me—the arousal. The shame. Like scent meant something.
I hated him. Hated the way his voice dipped low like he owned the damn room. Hated the way he looked at me like he could see through me.
Hated the way my body still tingled from earlier, and now—because of him—it tingled for a different reason.
Worse? My instincts didn’t know the difference. They just reacted to him.
“Answer the question, Lavini. Not optional.” I rolled my eyes, my brain concocting ways to send him out of my room and bury myself in here for years, because the kind of embarrassment I was feeling was top notch.
“Zade wants you downstairs for dinner. So, should I inform him how busy of a person you are?”
“I will fucking kill you, Darkfire, if you say a word to Zade!” I gritted, pointing an accusatory finger his way, while he only smirked.
“Threats suit you, Leika. Adds to the charm.” His eyes gleamed with sinister intentions as he turned to leave.
I quickly shut my laptop and followed closely behind him as we made our way downstairs.
When we got to the dining room, Zade was already seated, food laid out in a mini feast. Lavin slid into a seat two chairs away from me which I was grateful for.
If he’d sat any closer, I might’ve stabbed him with a fork.
“What took you so long, Leika?” Zade asked, shooting me a look.
“I was busy,” I said, forcing a small smile as I sat across from him.
“Busy watching p**n,” Lavin muttered, just loud enough for me to hear.
My eyes widened. My hand itched to hurl the coffee mug at his face.
“What did you say, Lavin?” Zade asked, raising a brow.
“Just talking to myself,” Lavin said smoothly, flashing a fake smile before digging into his food.
To avoid a complete meltdown, I changed the subject. “When are Mom and Dad coming back?”
Zade took a sip of wine. “Not sure. Tomorrow or the day after, maybe.”
Figures.
“I guess they don’t care much about their kids,” I muttered, stabbing a piece of chicken like it had personally offended me.
“They do care, Leika. Mom calls me at least three times a week,” Zade replied, voice calm, almost defensive.
Of course she did. They always called him. The golden child. The perfect son. But me? It was more like I didn’t existed to them.
“They never call me. Not once,” I said, quieter this time. “They treat me like I don’t exist.”
The room went still. Tears welled up in my eyes and a lump lodged at my throat, making it hard to breathe.
“I’m sure they’ll come around,” Zade said softly. “Give them time.”
I bit my tongue. When? When I graduate? When I disappear?
Lavin’s voice cut through the silence. “Don’t tell me you’re about to cry.”
I glanced up and caught the faintest softness behind his teasing. He was trying to lighten the mood in the most Lavin way possible. Still a jackass. But for once, a jackass with timing.
“Fuck off, Lavin.”
He smirked. “No more foul language, Leika. You’re innocent, remember?”
His eyes glittered with something unreadable.
I hated how he got under my skin.
Worse?
I hated that a part of me didn’t really want him to stop.
ZULEIKA POVThankfully, school finally closed for the day, and I was more than happy to leave. The day had been one hell of a shitty day for me, from having a discussion with grumpy-annyoing-lanvini, to being dragged into a weird conversation with Dorian, to my brother warning and stating facts about me hanging out with the Blackstone student.And the classes I attended, do not believe me if I said I understood everything that was taught. My head feels so heavy and throbbing loudly and to make matters worse, my bag felt heavily on my shoulder like I had placed the whole world in it. I just wanted to go home, throw my shoes somewhere, lie on the floor, and sleep.As I walked out the gate, I heard a voice behind me."Hey, slow down! You tryna escape the whole school or what?"I turned and smiled as I saw who it was. "Freckles."She caught up beside me, swinging her bag across one shoulder like she always did. In my distress, I had forgotten I was supposed to search out my best friend so
Lanvin POV Instead of moving towards zulekai and demanding what she was saying with Dorian, and demanding she stay faraway from the Blackstone guys most especially – I skated fast. I didn’t stop for one bit to check if they were still there talking whatever it's thru were discussing. I didn’t slow down one bit lest I felt tempted to act according to my desire. I kept going. The cold air hit my face, but I didn’t feel it. I pushed harder. I wanted to fall. I wanted to crash into the wall if it meant I’d stop thinking.I turned again. My skates cut across the ice. I chased the puck even when no one else did. I slammed it hard into the net, even when there was no goalie. The other guys had stopped playing and were talking to themselves. And I didn't bother to use my captain's authority to call them back to the ice. I loved the fact that I was alone and none of them were watching me. It makes me act the way I want, play like I was tackled by someone.“Hey!” Zade’s voice echoed across the
ZULEKAI I saw him again and this was the tenth time he was crossing my view. And the day hasn't ended. He was playing with his team on the ice, fully dressed in his gear. He was talking to someone, more of like he was instructing them — which reminded me now he was the captain of the college hockey team — but I didn’t even try to look properly and find out what he was saying or doing.I acted like I didn’t see him. I kept walking straight like he wasn’t even there. Like I never knew him. Not like I knew him. I knew him as the best friend to my brother, Zade, and well my roommate now. That helped... ignoring him and pretending to know who he was helped other than gathering round the stand and watching them play and cheer on like the other girls were doing. If I didn’t see him, maybe I could get him off my mind. Maybe I could forget what he said to me this morning. Maybe I could forget what he did last night. Maybe I could forget how I felt when I was around him.I walked fast away fr
LANVIN POVI sat on the edge of my bed with my hands in my hair. My fingers pulled at my roots, playing and tucking at it. My breath came slow, then fast. I shut my eyes and tried to keep my chest from tightening again. But it was useless. I have been like this ever since I returned from school. My racing heart was getting worse as the minutes passed, despite everything I have tried to make it calm...it seems it just got more infuriated.“Calm down,” I whispered as if doing that would make it stop troubling me.But it wasn’t working.It was my wolf and I don't know what's wrong with it. My wolf growled inside me. He moved around like he wanted to fight. Or maybe he wanted to run. Or maybe…he wanted something else. And the only thing that has been making my wolf troubled for the past few days was Zules. He wanted her. Zukelai.“No,” I said out loud as realization dawned on me. “Stop it. I don’t even know what I’m feeling.”My wolf didn’t listen. He never does when it’s about her. He do
ZULEKAI I woke up slowly, my eyes blinking open one after the other. The sunlight slipped through the curtains and touched my skin, warm and soft. It was the light which rested on my face that woke me up. I would have still been enjoying the comfort of my bed and pillow. I stretched my arms and sat up on the bed. My stomach let out a low grumble and I sighed remembering the incident that happened last night.Fucking asshole! I spat out as memories of last night came washing into my mind in a large torrent. I would have eaten if he hadn't pissed me off. I shrugged it off and stepped down from the bed. But my heart was beating faster than usual. I touched my chest lightly, trying to figure out what was wrong when something crossed my mind....the dream I had last night. I remembered it vividly and even though the events of last night tried crumbling it off, it still remained intact.It was a hot dream. The hottest dream I had ever had was about lanvini. I didn't want to think about it r
ZULEIKA'S POV “I need a car,” I randomly said as I walked out of a coffee shop with Freckles. It was her favorite place for cupcakes and brownies. The place was growing on me too. I took a sip of the coffee I had taken to go and glanced at her. “Tell me about it. College life fuckin’ sucks, man,” she sighed. “Good thing you've got your brother though, right?” she glanced at me and looked back down at her phone. I sipped my coffee again. “Yeah, definitely,” I sarcastically drawled. I appreciated Zade picking me up whenever I asked. He had never complained, but I would prefer to have my own car. It would give me a sense of autonomy over myself and my movements. “I'm gonna get going,” I sighed, deciding I was going to skip the last class I had. I could not see myself paying attention so I just wanted to head back home and get some rest. “‘Kay, see you later,” Freckles kissed my cheeks and headed off, still on her phone. She seemed distracted. On any other day, she would have persua
