His Property Chapter 35: Freak
(Henry’s POV)I am currently walking to school because Grey apparently left me. He is probably still mad. I tried talking to him but he wouldn’t budge at all.Sigh.Eventually I arrived at school.The moment I stepped through the school gates… I instantly knew something was wrong.At first, I couldn’t figure out why. Students were staring. Not the normal stare. This was different. Everywhere I looked, people were whispering.A group of girls sitting near the fountain immediately lowered their voices when they noticed me looking.Two boys near the bike racks glanced at me. Then at each other. Then they started whispering again, snickering.My steps slowed.A strange feeling settled in my stomach.What is going on?Then I heard it. As I passed three girls whispering to each other.“…that’s him.”My heart skipped.“The one dating Alex.”Another voice answered.“No way.”“I’m serious.”“I heard they’re already livin
His Property Chapter 34: A lie wrapped around the neck
(Henry’s POV) ————— I feel like this is the most unappetizing breakfast I have ever had my entire life. Not because the food was bad. But because Alex was sitting beside me. Don’t get me wrong, if this was before, I would have been overjoyed to have him eating with us. It’s just that… I didn’t know who he was anymore. Mom sat across from me, and Grey sat beside her. On the table were the plates of eggs, toast, bacon, and freshly brewed coffee. Everything looked normal, on the surface but if you looked closely at us right now, it was everything but normal. My fingers unconsciously curled around my fork. I was sweating a little, because even with the hot day, Alex made me wear it, so that my mom and Grey wouldn’t see the bruise on my wrist. “Keep it on.” That was what Alex had told me before we came downstairs. So I did. I didn’t have the courage to argue. Especially after what happened. Across from me, Grey was glaring at Alex. The tension was so thick that
His Property Chapter 33: A complete stranger
(Henry’s POV) ————— The first thing I noticed when I woke up was warmth. A comforting warmth wrapped around me from behind. For a brief moment, I didn’t open my eyes. I simply enjoyed it. The room was quiet, and the temperature was just right for all my muscles. It felt… nice. Then shortly, reality slowly returned. My eyes fluttered open. And immediately landed on Elijah. He was still asleep. His arm remained draped around my waist while his face rested against my shoulder. His golden lashes cast faint shadows across his cheeks. And I found myself staring. Why was I always staring at him lately? It was becoming a problem. A very serious problem. I shook my head. Nope. Not thinking about that. I carefully slipped out from beneath his arm. Like a criminal escaping a crime scene. One wrong movement and he might wake up. Thankfully, Elijah remained asleep. I quietly climbed off the bed. My stomach immediately growled. I was famished. Suddenly my prioritie
His Property Chapter 32: The one I chose
(Henry’s POV)—————The car ride home was… awkward.It wasn’t bad, but the silence was just too deafening.The rhythmic hum of the engine filled the silence as the dark road stretched endlessly before us. Trees blurred past the windows like shadows dancing beneath the moonlight.I sat in the passenger seat, occasionally stealing glances toward Elijah as he drove.One hand rested on the steering wheel while the other leaned against the window.His expression was unreadable. Ever since Kara accidentally revealed the whole mate thing earlier, he had gone totally quiet.Earlier, when I asked what a mate was, both he and Kara exchanged strange looks.Then Kara laughed nervously.And Elijah… well… Elijah simply smiled.“A mate is like a friend for life.” That was his answer.I wasn’t stupid. That sounded like the kind of explanation adults give children when they don’t know how to answer complex questions.I had narrowed my eyes on both
His Property Chapter 31: What is a mate?
(Henry’s POV)—————I was still eating.Well… Trying to eat at least.The moment Kara had seen me earlier, she practically launched herself across the dining room.“Henry!”The next thing I knew, I was being crushed.My face disappeared into a wall of brown hair as her arms wrapped around me so tightly I nearly saw my ancestors.“You’re alive!”“I-I can’t breathe—”“Do you know how worried everyone was?!”My vision was starting to darken. Fortunately, Elijah finally intervened.“Kara.” Elijah’s calm voice cut through the room. “You’re suffocating him.”Immediately, Kara froze. Then she loosened her death grip.I collapsed against my chair and greedily sucked in air.Kara turned toward Elijah. A glare instantly appeared on her face.“You—” She stopped. Her eyes narrowed. Then suddenly… Her entire expression changed.“Oh.”The anger vanished in an instant.She blinked. Then pointed at him.“Elijah.”A small smile appeared on Elijah’s face.“Hello, Kara.”The difference in her reaction w
His Property Chapter 30: Dinner and Chaos
(Henry’s POV)—————My heart pounded.“In the restroom… it was you, wasn’t it?” The words slipped out before I could stop them.For a moment, everything became still. Even the air itself seemed to freeze.Elijah’s hand paused where it rested against my shoulder.The sunlight pouring through the infirmary window painted golden streaks across his face, highlighting the sharp line of his jaw and the strange shadow that crossed his expression.I waited.And waited.And waited.But no answer came.The silence stretched between us until it became almost painful to bear. Why isn’t he talking?Slowly, Elijah lowered his gaze and continued wrapping the bandage around my shoulder as though he hadn’t heard me at all.“You don’t know what you’re talking about.” His voice was calm.I frowned.That wasn’t exactly a denial. But it wasn’t an admission either. I searched his face for clues. For anything. Yet Elijah remained frustratingly unreadable.The more I stared, the more impossible it became to

His Property Chapter 11: Sleeping Together
(Henry's POV) -———— I shuffled around the unfamiliar bed and felt a burning sensation in my throat. My head was also hurting like something was punching me from the inside. Where am I? [Creak!] A door to my left opened without notice and it revealed the person I least expected to see.
His Property Chapter 10: Drunk
(Henry's POV) ————— Me and Sandra were sitting here at the bar counter taking small sips of liquor which I'm not familiar with. And as for Kara, she was currently missing. "Did Kara leave?" I asked Sandra. "Nah, she always does this, she either doesn't want to be seen hooking with random g
His Property Chapter 9: Party
(Henry's POV) ————— A week had passed since that awkward encounter between me and Alex. And ever since then… we barely saw each other. Actually, scratch that. It felt more like he was avoiding me.
