Chapter 28 “Leave,” Deacon growls, the sound is more animal than human and it sends a thrill through me. “Yes, Sir,” I smile, leaning down to pick up the card I’d dropped. I straighten my clothes and leave the room to find the others. He's clearly having some internal struggle and I'm not going t
Chapter 29 Power surges through my hand and a flash of blue light blinds me. I stumble back. Alarms are blurring and everything is dark. “Don’t touch her!” I hear James warn someone. “I’ve got her,” Theo’s voice soothes as his arms wrap around me. “It’s okay Jose, you're safe,” Alarms continue
Chapter 30 “Bullshit!” Luke exclaims. “You're lying,” Theo accuses. “You were all there, the seer did not identify me as one,” Deacon shrugs as if it's no big deal. “That was because the commotion broke her trance before she was done,” Luke protests. “I spoke with her afterwards and she said s
Chapter 31 Luke’s coffee is almost as good as the Starbucks one. I’m impressed by his barista machine and skills. Axel also enjoys it and declares he’ll only be drinking the ‘human stuff’ from now on. Luke tells us how he sneaks to the human realm often to get supplies and I insist he takes me wit
Chapter 32Once the dining hall has cleared out there's a tense silence as we all wait for Mason to explain.“Well?” Mr Collins demands. I can only see his feet from my position behind the wall of muscle. The dagger clatters to the floor in between Mason and Mr Collins’ feet. “Someone threw that at
Chapter 33Theo follows my gaze and I feel his arms tighten around me a little. Then his eyes shift behind me, and in a flash, he spins me and pushes me like I'm on fire, “Axel’s turn” he declares as I crash into Axel. He catches me with an “oomph” and I curse at Theo. “Are you okay?” Axel asks, st
Chapter 34Theo opens a box and frowns before reaching in and holding up a textbook with ‘Criminology’ printed on the front. “What in the realm do they want us to study now?” he rolls his eyes. I run to check the box, hope washing away all the side effects of teleporting. “Oh my god,” I gasp. Reach
Chapter 35Luke pulls his hand from my panties and I almost cry in protest, until he spins me around and lifts me off of my feet. My legs wrap around his waist and I bring my mouth to his, kissing him as he walks towards the dining table. The move reminds me of Deacon and my heart skips a beat. No.
Chapter 13** Harper’s POV **After class, we wait for Dillon by the door. He rounds the corner a few moments later and I smile. I’ll never get bored with seeing his eyes light up whenever he notices me.“Hey, are we ready to do this?” he asks as he approaches.“Yes, although I’m not sure what exact
Chapter 12** Harper’s POV **The dining hall is not as busy this morning. I suspect it will get more crowded as students wake up, but for now it’s manageable. We join the small queue together and I’m already missing my dad’s famous pancakes that he would make almost every morning for the whole fam
Chapter 11** Dillon’s POV **Harper is an angel, or maybe a devil is a more fitting description, because seeing her in these tiny pieces of fabric makes me want to sin. I feel bad for looking at her whilst she sleeps, but I can’t pull my eyes from her. She had fallen asleep about an hour ago. I kn
Chapter 10** Harper’s POV **Having Dillon and Archie’s hands on me is bliss. I had felt so out of place in the dining hall, but here, with these two, I feel home. It’s as if their touch alone can strengthen me, and make me more myself. The guys don’t go further than touching. Archie grazes my ni
Chapter 9** Archie’s POV **Something is wrong with Harper. She is trying to pretend everything is fine, but I can sense her growing anxiety.Was Dillon right? Is she nervous about bonding with us? I want her, badly. I’ve dreamed about her every single night for over a year, but I can wait as long
Chapter 8** Harper’s POV **Getting our uniform takes over an hour, as it seems half of the new students had the same idea to come now like us. By the time we have it, it’s almost time for the dining hall to open. We head back up to our room to drop off our new uniform and we walk in to find Dillo
Chapter 7** Harper’s POV **Once all my belongings are in my room, Archie leaves to go unpack his stuff while I unpack mine. A large white envelope, with my name scrawled across the front, is on top of one of my boxes. Inside, I find my academy issue phone and some information booklets with a camp
Chapter 6** Harper’s POV **I lean against the closed door and bring my fingers to my lips, closing my eyes whilst I remember the feel of Dillon’s lips against mine. I can’t wait to do that again. Will kissing Archie feel the same? The sound of movement from one of the rooms catches my attention,
Chapter 5** Harper’s POV **Sage’s hand lands on Dillon’s forearm, not his shoulder. What does that mean?Axel comes over and puts a hand on Dillon’s shoulder before guiding him away. I attempt to follow, but he puts a hand up to stop me. He gives me the universal sign for “It’s okay” and I can fin
