“I just wanted to congratulate you all on the baby, you will make wonderful parents, I'm sure,” she says.“Any time you need to talk, just call us. It doesn't matter the time. We will do anything to repair our relationship with you, Son,” my biological father says and I manage to nod but my anger bu
Chapter 159** Josie’s POV **The next two hours are gruelling. Raff tests our gifts to the limit. He started small, having us pick up tyres using telekinesis and making small cracks in the ground using molecular manipulation. Then it quickly progressed to opening up large caverns in the ground and
The attention of the whole room seems to focus on us now and I sigh in defeat. There goes our lunch break. I guess it's time to meet the rest of the parents. “Mason and I will grab us all some food whilst you guys deal with the families,” Deacon says.“Thank you, don’t forget the cheese,” I tell hi
Chapter 160** Axel’s POV **My biological father seems to be making a little more effort with me than usual, although it’s still minimal. My mother and two other fathers are still as disinterested as ever. They're all only here to be a part of something. They don’t care about saving the human realm
Chapter 160** Luke’s POV **We arrive back at the training ground with a few minutes to spare. Josie sits on a dusty old tyre whilst eating a banana that Theo’s mum insists will help with the swelling in her feet and ankles. We also all agreed that will will take her to the infirmary for a check-up
Chapter 161** Josie’s POV **By the time we port into the human realm, I have already been made to make what feels like a thousand promises to get out if I'm in danger. The guys are on edge, which is almost crippling me through the bond. Mason is pacing my small childhood living room as we wait fo
“Or this is just him, how he should have been before Cash twisted him into something else,” I respond to Theo.“Maybe, we love him either way though, right?” he asks.“Of course,” I roll my eyes as if he even needs to ask. “Freya is here,” Deacon says as we hear the car engine pull into the drivewa
Chapter 163** Josie’s POV **Deacon and I port into an empty apartment in a building that overlooks the park, whilst Luke, Axe, Mason and Theo port to a disused train line in the underground station across the street. Some of Raff’s team are already here and some have even managed to compel themsel
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
