ANMELDENSolange I blew Kael a kiss full-on puckered lips, dramatic hand wave, the works right as he peeked around that stupid crash cart like he thought he was invisible. His eyes went huge. Then he jumped. Actual jump. Like a cat that just saw its own shadow. Arms flailing, glasses sliding halfway down his nose, mouth open in this perfect little “oh shit” O before he ducked back behind the cart so fast I swear I heard his head bonk the metal.I cackled so loud Professor Hale shot me a look from the front of the room. “Lange. Focus.”“Sorry, Prof,” I called back, not sorry at all. “Just saying hi to my fan club.”Kael peeked out again, face tomato-red, mouthing “You’re dead” while trying to look threatening. Jax next to him just growled low in his throat real low, wolf-low and Ryker pushed his glasses up like he was recalibrating his murder plans. I winked at all three of them because why not? They were already feral. Might as well feed the beast.The rest of the rounds continued. More patie
Solange I snatched the phone before he could even twitch toward it, my fingers closing around it . The screen was still lit up, frozen on that alley shot the nurse’s wide eyes, the hand clamped over her mouth, the car door gaping like a mouth ready to swallow her whole. My thumb must’ve hit something because the video paused right there, silent but screaming.Xiabao lunged. “Give it…. ”I yanked it back, stepping sideways so he crashed into empty air. “What the hell is that?” I hissed, keeping my voice low because the hallway wasn’t empty. Some intern shuffled past twenty feet away, headphones in. “Who is she? That looked like… ”“Shut up,” he snapped, eyes darting left-right like he expected security to pop out of the vending machine. His face had gone from annoyed-doctor default to straight-up terrified, sweat already beading on his upper lip. “You saw nothing. Delete it. Now.”I held the phone higher. “Delete it? That’s a girl getting shoved into a car, asshole. That’s not nothing
Solange I turned and caught my three idiots staring again. Jax looked ready to shift and rip Xiabao’s throat out. Kael was grinning but his fists were clenched. Ryker hid his eyes but his shoulders were stiff. I winked at them just to twist the knife. Ryker still thought I was just Lange the roommate, but the other two knew exactly what game I was playing. Professor Hale clapped his hands once and pointed to the next patient. “Alright. Next case. Allergic reaction. What do you do?”A woman in her thirties sat on the exam bed. Her neck was red and blotchy. She kept scratching her arms. Her breathing sounded tight. A nurse stood beside her holding a chart.Xiabao stepped forward first. His voice was calm. “Vitals?”The nurse read them out. “Pulse elevated. Blood pressure slightly low. Patient reports itching and throat tightness.”I crossed my arms and watched him. He glanced at me like he knew I was about to say something.He was right.“Epinephrine IM if anaphylaxis,” I said.Xiabao
Solange I couldn’t stop staring at him. Xiabao. That was his name, Dr. Xiabao , the human resident, had said it twice during the quick intro and it hit my ears like some fancy song I’d never heard back home. Xiabao. Never in my life had a name sounded that pretty, like it belonged on a guy who looked half-Asian half-American and way too good to be real. Sharp jaw, pretty eyes that actually sparkled under the shitty hospital lights, scrubs that hugged arms I wanted to climb. And yeah, I was still Lange on the outside, my jaw dropped low, hand bandaged from last night’s mess, but inside my brain was already scheming. Flirt with him. See what human love feels like. No wolf bonds, no mate pulls, just normal stupid butterflies. And bonus? It would drive Jax, Kael, and Ryker absolutely insane. I could already picture their faces. Perfect.So I did what any idiot would do, I started following him the second we got split into groups for rounds. “Hey, Dr. Xiabao, right?” I said, jogging up b
Solange The ride to the human university was twenty minutes of pure torture. I sat next to Marc, who kept nodding off, while Jax, Kael, and Ryker sat in the row behind me like three very pissed-off guard dogs. Every time the bus hit a bump I felt their stares boring into the back of my head. Jax muttering under his breath about “stubborn idiot,” while cracking sarcastic jokes loud enough for me to hear… “guess Lange wants to slum it today, huh?” and Ryker just silently judging like he was writing a thesis on my bad decisions.When we finally pulled up, the place looked exactly like every other boring university building, glass doors, signs that said had arrived in the main city, people in scrubs rushing around like normal humans. Professor Hale herded us inside the lecture hall for a quick intro from the human supervisor.“Welcome, transfer students,” the human professor said, all smiles and clipboards. “Today you’ll shadow our residents. Blend in with central students as I understan
Solange I sat up to Jax pacing the room like a caged wolf who’d had three espressos and this guy literally had zero chill, muttering under his breath while he yanked on a hoodie that was already inside out. “Okay, maybe we just start over,” he was saying, not even looking at me, just talking to the wall . “Accept who we are, right? The Bond’s there, secret’s out between us, I’m in control of this shit now because somebody’s always gonna know and that somebody is me, so we just… roll with it. No rejection. No drama. Easy.”I lay there on the bunk, still wrapped in the blanket from earlier , staring at the ceiling and feeling my brain short-circuit in about five different directions at once. Who the fuck is he? Who does he think he is, standing there acting like he’s the boss of my entire life after one single scream-fest and a pad incident? I’ve been here for weeks….. weeks….. binding my tits so tight I can barely breathe, deepening my voice until my throat hurts, dodging showers, dod
Jax “Rejecting it,” I said. Flat. “We can both say the words. Done. Bond snaps. We go back to being bros. Or whatever. You keep being Lange till graduation. I keep my mouth shut. Easy.”She stared. “You want to reject me?”“Yeah.”Deep down? No. Not even a little. The bond was clawing at me, scre
Jax I shoved the door open because my bladder was screaming and the hall bathroom line was longer than my patience, figuring Lange would either be asleep or pretending to study like he always did with those stupid earbuds in. Didn’t even think twice. Just barged in like I owned the place, which, t
Solange I was sprawled on my bunk still trapped in these idiot academy trousers and the button-up that squeezed my tits like it was trying to win a choking contest. Binder or no binder, the shirt always felt two sizes too small and personally offended by my existence. I stared at the cracked ceili
Sylvia We spent the whole afternoon like that researching, arguing, interrupting each other every two seconds. “No, you read it wrong, it says three nights not three hours!” “Well you typed the search term like a caveman, of course it gave crap results!” “Your wolf’s the one who started purring la
