DAISY

Questions burn in my mind, demanding answers, and I'm determined to get them.

"Is it... because of Melissa—"

I don't finish my sentence because the name alone seems to trigger something in him and his expression hardens.

Damian abruptly turns with the clear intent to leave without addressing my question.

His bare back presents itself to me with muscles shifting beneath tanned skin as he prepares to walk away.

Panic surges through me. I can't let him go. Not without answers. Not when my entire world has been upended by this connection neither of us asked for.

I lunge forward and grab his hand, my fingers wrapping around his wrist in a desperate attempt to keep him here.

The moment our skin connects, a dizzying spark jolts through me.

Electricity races up my arm and spreads throughout my body, leaving a trail of goosebumps in its wake.

My heart pounds violently in my chest with an erratic, painful rhythm.

Deep within my mind, Aru howls in response to the contact. It's a mournful, y

Sorry for not updating this story yesterday, something came up that I had to handle. Also, please be patient with Daisy's character. She's been conditioned to be wary of Class A wolves, and being in a school full of such high-ranking wolves for the first time is understandably overwhelming. Her growth as a character is assured, though it will be gradual. :)

Thank you, I already love Daisy and I know she will be a force when she gathers her strength. I still think there is more than meets the eye with Daisy though but I can’t wait for her beautiful transformation…

    DAISYThe school yard is my first stop but she's nowhere to be seen.Damian's car isn't in the parking lot either. Since there are no classes today, he's probably handling pack business elsewhere.My eyes narrow as I consider where Melissa might be hiding with my stolen property.The café.It's always been headquarters for her particular brand of bullying and social terrorism.The building sits at the edge of campus, a modern structure with floor-to-ceiling windows that reflect the late afternoon sun.Students gather around small tables, sipping coffee and pretending to study while actually gossiping about their classmates.It's the social hub of Lunar Crest and therefore Melissa's natural habitat.I make my way there and sure enough, find her holding court at her usual table, surrounded by her sycophants.Some poor freshman is cowering before her, clearly the target of today's torment.The girl's eyes are downcast. Her shoulders hunched as if trying to make herself as small as possib

    DAISYDamian’s shirt. It's gone.I distinctly remember packing it this morning before leaving his house.It was my secret comfort that made me feel close to him when he was with Melissa.The shirt had become something of a talisman for me.A tangible connection to Damian when everything else about our relationship was so confusing and painful.I would hold it close at night, breathing in his scent. It helped me sleep when my thoughts were too chaotic, too filled with images of him and Melissa together.I burst out of the bathroom and begin tearing apart my bed, throwing pillows and blankets to the floor.I flip the mattress and check under the bed frame, desperation growing with each passing second.My hands shake as I search every corner, every crevice where the shirt might be hiding."What are you looking for, Daisy?" Rebecca is watching my frantic search with wide eyes.She steps back as I nearly collide with her in my haste to check the closet."Rebecca, there was a shirt... a bla

    DAISYI arrive at Lunar Crest after four grueling hours of walking.My feet throb with each step and my legs feel like they might give out at any moment, trembling with exhaustion.Damian's house was much farther away than I'd realized and my stubborn pride wouldn't let me accept his offer to drive me back after Melissa's dramatic intrusion this morning."Stupid, stupid dignity," I mutter to myself, wincing as I climb the steps to the school entrance.The late afternoon sun beats down mercilessly on my back and sweat trickles uncomfortably between my shoulder blades, making my borrowed dress cling to my skin.I regret my decision now with every fiber of my being.Four hours of walking in uncomfortable shoes and under the increasingly hot sun, all because I couldn't stand to be in the same car with him after everything that happened.Four hours! Not fifteen minutes.My dignity has cost me dearly today and I'm paying the price with every painful step.The cool air of the school hallway

    DAISYI freeze for a moment, debating whether to stay hidden in the bedroom or face whatever confrontation is happening below.Aru pushes for the latter, her curiosity and protective instincts flaring to life.'We need to see what's happening,' she insists. 'This concerns us too.'I rush out of the room and down the stairs, my heart pounding with each step.The wooden stairs creak under my weight, announcing my approach before I reach the bottom.I pause on the last step and take in the scene before me, trying to assess the situation.In the living room, Damian stands facing Melissa whose face is contorted with pure rage.Her normally perfect hair is slightly disheveled, as if she rushed here without taking her usual time to style it to perfection.She's gesturing wildly, her voice rising with each word that spills from her lips.Damian's back is to me, though I can see the tension in his shoulders and the rigid line of his spine as he faces her fury with apparent calm.She spots me o

  • LUNAR BONDS: WHEN FATE DEFIES HIERARCHY   CH.52

    DAISYI open my eyes slowly, squinting against the morning light streaming through unfamiliar curtains.The brightness makes me wince and I have to blink several times before my vision adjusts.I'm disoriented for a moment, unable to place where I am.The bed under me is softer than mine at Lunar Crest and the sheets carry a scent that makes my heart race even before my conscious mind identifies it.Damian.Memories of last night flood back and I feel a blush creep up my cheeks, warming my face with embarrassment and something else I don't want to examine too closely.I must have fallen asleep in his arms and he carried me to his bed.The persistent ringing of my phone pulls me fully awake, cutting through my thoughts like a sharp blade.I reach for it on the bedside table, checking the caller ID with growing dread.It's Grandpa.My stomach drops at the sight of his name on the screen.The emotional chaos of yesterday made me completely forget to let my grandparents know where I was.

  • LUNAR BONDS: WHEN FATE DEFIES HIERARCHY   CH.51

    DAISYOne moment he's sitting beside me, the next he's grabbed me and pinned me to the wall.The impact knocks the breath from my lungs and I gasp in shock, my head spinning from the sudden movement.The cool surface of the wall presses into my back, a stark contrast to the heat of his body pressed close to mine.Every nerve ending comes alive where our bodies connect, sending electric currents racing through my system.I open my eyes to find his face inches from mine, his breath warm on my skin.What truly stops my heart are his eyes. They're no longer their usual color, instead burning with an orange fire that seems to glow in the dim light.They're inhuman and primal. These are the eyes of the wolf within him. The transformation is both terrifying and mesmerizing at the same time.I can't look away because I'm caught in that burning gaze like a moth drawn to flame. The intensity of his stare makes my pulse race and my breathing shallow."You will not be with anyone else," his voice
