Earis

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." I stammered, sitting in front of the Vice-Chancellor’s desk like a criminal on trial.

"We do not condone such behavior here at Ravenhurst. Assaulting a professor in front of the entire school?" his voice laced with calm disappointment. "Why did you do that, Miss Lockwood?”

All I could feel was my heart pounding in my ears. The walls of the large office were closing in on me.

Assault! If anything, he assaulted me! But of course, nobody saw that. They only saw me pulling his damn tie.

The words clawed at my throat, but saying Them was futile. What could mere Mundanes do against him?

“It’s best we contact your parents Miss Lockwood. Is everything well at home?” He continued, tone lighter.

The second he mentioned parents, sweat beaded over my temple. My eyes instantly became blurry.

“I don't think there's a need for that, Vice Chancellor Edwin,” Magnus said as he walked in like he owned the office.

“This might have been a trauma response, I'm

  • Hunt Me, Mark Me    72. Akira's words

    Earis “Was that Cassian?” I asked, turning to Vanya. She remained quiet. Her silence said more than her words ever could, and the worry across her face told me she already knew something I didn’t.“We just need to see Akira. Everything will be fine after that,” she said at last, but her voice was clipped, almost cold. My heart slammed against my ribs. Nothing about Cassian's presence felt fine. The elevator chimed open, and before I could react, Vanya’s body went limp and crumpled to the floor. My knees buckled as I caught her weight. Adrenaline surged up my spine. “Hunters playing detectives… You shouldn't be here, Earis Lockwood. Alpha Voss would not take this lightly,” a voice said from across the room. My eyes darted toward the voice. A woman sat next to a wide glass window with glossy black hair framing her face, large gold earrings swaying faintly, and a heavy beaded necklace resting against her chest. At first glance, she looked calm and easy. But when my eyes lingered a

  • Hunt Me, Mark Me    71. Finding Akira

    EarisThe first thing I felt was warmth, and an overwhelming sense of ease just before my eyes flickered open. Flashes of last night played in my head in an endless loop and I didn't know when a smile curled up my lips. I felt weak to the knees, yet everything seemed to make sense at this point. The low sound of the AC humming, the stretch of sunlight that passed through the blinder, even the air itself made sense and I wanted to remain here forever. “You look gorgeous when you sleep,” Magnus's voice sent a shock wave through me. I sat up in bed immediately. “Don't be scared, you seemed to be smiling just a moment ago,” he added. My eyes darted across the room until I saw him. He was seated on the couch in the dark corner of the room just watching me. “I would like to know why Vanya's been calling and texting you…” He started before he rose to his feet. My heart skipped a beat. “W…what?” I stammered, trying to find ways to change the topic, but my mind was blank. He walked t

  • Hunt Me, Mark Me    70. Something different

    Magnus More. Her eyes scream the words, even without her lips moving. I could still feel our hot release mixing inside her as I refused to pull out. Her pussy still clenched tightly around my cock. Just like the good girl she was, she had taken charge, and now it was my turn to give her a glimpse of her wildest dream. Three days of patiently waiting so she would crave me more than she could ever imagine worked like a charm. I lifted her off my cock, and her release slipped from her core into the tub. She giggled lightly, her cheeks tinted pink. I had never seen her so… happy. The sight of her made warmth creep into my veins. I carried her out of the tub back into the room, all the while she clung to me tightly, our wet bodies pressed against each other. I laid her down on the bed, not minding the mess I had made earlier. Water dripped from her flushed skin, soaking into the sheets as she sank into the mattress. She looked up at me with that dazed smile, still catching her bre

  • Hunt Me, Mark Me    69. I want it all

    EarisIt was supposed to be just to soothe his pain, a way to ease the guilt gnawing at me since I was part of the reason he was in this condition. But the truth slipped through no matter how hard I tried to lie to myself. My mind was already made up. I wanted him to fill me, to do all the filthy things I had glimpsed in those flashes of his mind. And worse… I was ready to savor every second of it. My hand slid down his cock again, stroking him slowly, though it was me who trembled from the touch more than him. He was done with my teasing, he wanted to taste me. His cold eyes never left mine, waiting and demanding to know exactly where I wanted him to begin. Fuck it! One more time wouldn't hurt. It doesn't mean I'm choosing him. When we find Akira, I'll still rid myself of his stupid mark. I rose to my feet, water dripping from my hands. I slowly took off my clothes, one after the other, letting his eyes savour every inch of me. His gaze moved from my lips to my collarbone, down

  • Hunt Me, Mark Me    68. Burning possession

    Earis Nuel picked me up a few minutes after I called him. He didn't say a word throughout the drive, no matter how many times I asked about Magnus. The moment we got into the Mansion, I sprinted into his room, heart pounding like a war drum. My eyes widened at the sight of him.The room was a mess, he had turned it upside down, breaking everything he came in contact with. My clothes were scattered across the bed and floor like he had tried to find something to fill my absence. He lay on the bed, his skin was covered with bruises. He looked like he had been beaten to a pulp. His skin sizzled with burn marks, and the stench of burning flesh filled the air. It was like he had died over and over again until there was nothing left of him. My heart sank in my chest. The guilt of being one of his inflictors made the knot in my stomach tighten. I couldn't help but care. My selfishness has caused this. The least I could do was try to make him feel better. “Why didn't you call for me!” I

  • Hunt Me, Mark Me    67. Doing what is right! 

    EarisI couldn't move, my hands were covered in blood. I turned to him and the expression on his face was clear. He had seen everything. “What are you doing?” He asked, raising a brow. “This boy hasn't done anything… He's just a child!” I yelled, trying to justify my actions. “Earis, what is wrong with you? Even if he's a child, you know what he'll become!” He snapped, his blind devotion to being a hunter shone brighter than the sun itself. I never expected him to understand, so I knew I was doomed either way. Cassian had never been the kind to shut his mouth. Seeing Cassian's reaction, the boy crawled backwards hiding behind me as he curled into himself and wept. “Imagine this was Brittany! Imagine this was your younger sister! He just watched his mother die even after begging for her life. It would be our actions today that would turn him into a monster. Why can't you see that!” I hissed. “That's if we let him live!” He growled, frustration laced in his every word. But he he
