LYSANDER'S POV

The charity gala for the "Young Artists Foundation" was exactly the kind of high-society purgatory Uncle Julian loved. It was a sea of champagne, fake smiles, and men in tuxedos who looked like they were made of cardboard.

I stood in front of the vanity in my dressing room, adjusting the collar of the piece Callie had sourced for me. It was a custom, high-neck black silk jacket, clearly tailored for me with how well it suited me. The back was made with a mesh panel that exposed

    CASSIANI spent the weekend staring at my phone and pacing my bedroom floor.My cheek didn't sting anymore, but the memory of the slap did. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Jeriel who looked at me like I was a monster he’d found under his bed."Yo, Cass. You even listening?"I blinked, snapping back to the present. I was sitting in the back of the cafeteria with Derek and a few other guys from the team. They were all hovering around, looking at me with that annoying mix of pity and confusion they’d been sporting since Monday."I'm listening," I lied, pushing my tray away. The smell of the cafeteria food was making me nauseous. Everything smelled wrong. "We're hitting that party at the lake house this Saturday," Derek said, leaning in. "Your parents are back on that corporate retreat, right? No one to bug you. You need to get out of your head, man. You’ve been a zombie all week.""I'll skip," I said flatly.The table went quiet. Derek exchanged a look with the others. "Skip? Cass, y

    JERIELThe first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was that my fever was gone. I stared at the ceiling of my bedroom, my vision slowly coming into focus. Perhaps the drugs I got worked, I thought. I nearly thought I'd die from that fever.My head still felt fuzzy but since I couldn't tell how long I'd been out cold, it was best for me to grab a glass of water at least. I tried to sit up when a localized ache radiated from my lower back and thighs. I felt sore in places I hadn't even considered in years. Had I bumped against something while in a haze? That thought left as fast as it came as I felt a stickiness down there. It was a wet sensation between my legs that made my stomach churn.I closed my eyes tightly, forcing myself to breathe. It was a fever, I told myself. I got sick, I took those pills, and I've been asleep for a few hours.But the memories started to pour back in. The sound of me crying under someone, begging to be railed and entering the craziest of positions.I

    JERIELHe moved lower, his hands sliding into my boxers. I let out a sharp cry when his fingers wrapped around my dick. I was dripping, a slick, clear fluid coating his palm. I had never felt anything like this. It was a physical desperation that bypassed my brain entirely.Cassian stripped out of his own clothes, and when I saw him—fully hard and twice the size of anything I had imagined—my heart hammered against my ribs. He pushed my legs apart, settling his heavy weight between my thighs.He didn't go slow. He couldn't. The air in the room was so thick with our combined scents that it was like a drug. He guided himself to my hole, which was already swollen and weeping for him."Look at me, Jeriel," he commanded.I opened my eyes, my vision blurry with tears. He pushed inside, a slow, agonizingly deep thrust that felt like he was splitting me open and filling me up at the same time. I screamed, my fingers digging into his back, my back arching off the mattress."Too... it's too much

    JERIEL The heat felt worse than any fever I'd ever had before. It felt like I was being swallowed by a sun that lived inside my own skin. Every breath I took burned my throat, and every time the fabric of my t-shirt brushed against my chest, it felt rough.I was on the floor of my living room, clutching the pharmacy bag like a lifeline. I needed the pills. If I could just swallow two more, the world would stop spinning. The flu would break. I could go back to being the person I understood.Then the door opened.The scent hit me before I even saw him. It rushed into the room like a flood, drowning out the smell of my own sweat and the clinical scent of the apartment. My body reacted before my brain did. My legs turned weak and a sharp ache started deep in my lower belly—a hunger so sudden it made me gasp."Jeriel?"I looked up, my glasses sliding down my bridge. Cassian was there. He looked huge, his silhouette blocking out the light from the hallway. He moved toward me, and I tried t

    CASSIANThe second I stepped inside, the air changed. It wasn't the neutral, clean scent I had smelt yesterday. It was something else—something so sweet it made my teeth ache, and so hot it felt like stepping into a furnace. It was thick and heavy.My heart started to hammer against my ribs, but not with anger. It was a terrifying realization. I’d smelled this before, every Alpha knew this scent. It was the smell of an Omega in their first, unbridled heat."Jeriel?" I called again, my voice cracking.I heard a stumble from the kitchen area. A second later, Jeriel appeared, gripping the doorframe to keep himself upright. He looked terrible. His face was flushed a dark, feverish red, and his glasses were sitting crooked on his face. He was wearing an oversized t-shirt and boxers, his skin glistening with a thin sheen of sweat.In his hand, he was clutching a small plastic bag from the pharmacy, likely the medications for the so-called flu Miller mentioned.He looked at me, but his ambe

    CASSIAN The morning after the kiss went by with a pounding headache and guilt. I had walked into school expecting the worst. I expected to be hauled back into Miller’s office, to see Jeriel standing there with a face full of cold fury, ready to have me expelled for good. I’d even practiced an apology, though I knew "I was drunk and you were cute" wouldn't exactly fix biting your teacher's lip. But when 3:30 PM rolled around and I walked toward the lab, the hallway was silent. The door was locked. I checked the handle twice, a knot of unease tightening in my chest. Jeriel didn't miss days. Even when he looked like he was about to collapse from exhaustion, he was always there, adjusting his glasses and telling me to scrub harder. I waited for ten minutes, but the hallway remained empty. I found myself heading toward the main office, my pace quicker than usual. "Principal Miller?" I said, leaning into the office without knocking. Miller looked up from his paperwork, sighing when
